  1. Hello Baijul, Thank you for your question. The Date column needs to be in ascending order. You’re adding an earlier date to the end of the data, that’s why the formula is not working.

    You can sort the data or use the following formulas:

    Cell C148: =LOOKUP(2,1/($C$140:$C$145>$C$147),$B$140:$B$145)
    This returns Samantha

    Cell C149: =LOOKUP(2,1/($C$140:$C$145>$C$147),$C$140:$C$145)
    This returns November 25, 2022

  2. If you want to return the price of the second matched value, you can use the following formula that returns the value $715.

    =INDEX(FILTER(D58:D63,ISNUMBER(SEARCH(“Lap”,C58:C63))),2)

  3. profit percentage = (selling price – cost price) / cost price. Our calculation is correct. Additionally, commission is not usually included in the profit calculation.

  4. Question 6: You need to return the price of the Mobile Phone sold by Aaron. This question is similar to question 3. So, I have asked to use different formula to do so.

    Now, 1 is used as a logical value to identify the matching records based on the conditions specified by the formula. This enables the INDEX function to retrieve the desired value from the given range.

    (B79=B71:B76)*(C79=C71:C76) returns, {0;1;0;0;0;0}. So, when we put 1 inside the MATCH function, it will return the second value. Thus, we have obtained the value $429.

  5. Hello, Lori. The file is working correctly on our end. I think you need to “Enable Editing” from the protected view feature of Excel.

  13. Greetings, Fethiye Kiralik Villa. I am responding on behalf of ExcelDemy. I’ve tested the =hyperlink method, and it works perfectly for me. Make sure you have the latest version of Acrobat. Alternatively, you can try to reset all the settings in Adobe Acrobat Reader.

  14. Greetings George. I am replying on behalf of ExcelDemy. There was an issue with the code in the file. I have updated the file. This works perfectly fine for a “+” character in the text.

  15. Thank you, Alberto, for your question. I am replying on behalf of ExcelDemy. You can manually set the waiting time by using-
    ActiveWorkbook.RefreshAll
    Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue(“0:00:05”))
    …..other lines of code

    Here, it will wait for five seconds. You modify it to suit your needs.

  16. Thank you, Gilles Laurence, for your comment. I am replying on behalf of ExcelDemy. The custom number format works perfectly on our end. The French number system uses a comma for a decimal separator and a space for thousand separators. You can change the thousand separators from the Advanced tab on the Excel Options to solve this.

  17. Greetings, Michael. I’m responding on ExcelDemy’s behalf. Yes, the methods presented work the same way for Excel tables after I converted the provided dataset into a table.

  18. Hi, Frank!
    You can create a helper column and input “Yes” for the sent mails. Then, you can run the VBA code to sent the values without the “Yes” values. That way, the mail will be sent only to those not sent to before.
    You can also email us your Excel file with detailed instructions to [email protected], so that we can give you a proper code to solve the problem.

  19. Thank you, Rob, for your comment. To make the function available all the time, you can copy the code and paste the VBA code in a workbook. Then, save that workbook as Excel Add-in (*.xlam) file. Then, you will need to enable this add-in for a new Excel file. Thus, the function will be available as long as the add-in is enabled. Additionally, you will need to install the font beforehand.

    Let’s assume, you have exported the Excel file as “code 128.xlam” file. Then, you will need to enable this (File > Options > Add-ins > select Go).

    Then, you will need to enable the exported file name (in our case it is “code 128) and press OK.

    After doing this, whenever you create a new Excel file, you will be able to use this “CODE128()” function without copying the VBA code.

  20. Hello, EG Barber thank you for your question. You can use the following code and paste inside your sheet (right click on the sheet, select View Code and paste the code there) to get an automatic VBA sum feature.

    Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
    Dim our_cell_range As Range
    Set our_cell_range = Range("C5:C10")
    If Not Application.Intersect(our_cell_range, Range(Target.Address)) Is Nothing Then
    Range("C11") = Application.WorksheetFunction.Sum(our_cell_range)
    End If
    End Sub

    The following animated image shows the solution in action.

  21. Hello Robin. This code should work for you. It will make the image fit in the output cell, keep the aspect ratio constant, and the image will not disappear.

    Option Explicit
    Sub URLPhotoInsert2()
    Dim cPhoto As String
    Dim cPicture As Shape
    Dim cRange As Range
    Dim cItem As Range
    Set cRange = Range("C5:C10")
    For Each cItem In cRange
        cPhoto = cItem.Offset(0, -1)
        If cPhoto = "" Then GoTo line33
            Set cPicture = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddPicture(cPhoto, _
            msoFalse, msoTrue, Columns(cItem.Column).Left, _
            Rows(cItem.Row).Top, -1, -1)
        If cPicture.Width > cItem.Width Then cPicture.Width = cItem.Width
        If cPicture.Height > cItem.Height Then cPicture.Height = cItem.Height
            With cPicture
                .Top = Rows(cItem.Row).Top + (Rows(cItem.Row).Height - .Height) / 2
                .Left = Columns(cItem.Column).Left + (.TopLeftCell.Width - .Width) / 2
                .LockAspectRatio = msoTrue
                .Placement = xlMoveAndSize
            End With

             cPhoto = ""
        Next

  22. Hello Danielle D, Thank you for your question. For the first question, you can add a line break using the CHAR function. CHAR(10) to be more specific. There are some feature limitations in the HYPERLINK method. You need to use the other methods to do more advanced stuff.

    Then, for the second question, if you send your Excel file to [email protected], we will try to modify the VBA code according to your needs.

  23. Hello Bill Allcock, Excel formulas can’t move data. So, we’re making a copy of the value. You need to use VBA to do so. Moreover, you can send us your sample Excel file to [email protected] and we will try to solve your problem using VBA.

  24. Hello Andreas, you need to add the following line to ignore the error.

    On Error Resume Next
  25. Thank you Anthony for your question. Let’s assume you have this data in 4 sheets and you want to copy the rows that has conflict.

    Now, the output should contain only the “yes” from the 4 sheets:

    To copy values from 4 sheets to a new sheet, use the following VBA code

    Option Explicit
    Sub Copy_Conflict_Values_New_Sheet()
    Dim xRange As Range
    Dim End_Row, SheetNumber As Integer
    Worksheets("Output").Range("X5:Z100").ClearContents
    For SheetNumber = 1 To 4
    Worksheets(SheetNumber).Activate
        For Each xRange In Range("Z4:Z" & Cells(Rows.Count, "Z").End(xlUp).Row)
        End_Row = Worksheets("Output").Range("Z" & Worksheets("Output").Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
        If xRange.Value = "Yes" Then
                Rows(xRange.Row).Copy Destination:=Worksheets("Output").Rows(End_Row + 1)
                End_Row = End_Row + 1
        End If
        Next
    Next SheetNumber
    End Sub
  26. Paul, we appreciate your analysis. That 1 represents column_number, which is an optional argument. You can omit that in the original formula and it will still return Ricky Ben.

    =INDEX(B5:B24,MATCH(1,INDEX((C5:C24=100)*(D5:D24=100)*(E5:E24=100),0),0),1)

  27. Thanks for your formula.
    Just a reminder, if anyone wants to copy and paste this formula, the quotes need to be straight (“”), not curly (“”). Otherwise, they will get the #N/A error.

    1. Excel 365
    =FIND(MID(C5,LOOKUP(9^9,FIND(“/”,C5,SEQUENCE(LEN(C5)))),9^9),C5)

    2. Earlier Versions
    =FIND(MID(C5,LOOKUP(9^9,FIND(“/”,C6,ROW(1:100))),9^9),C5)

  28. You can use this code to keep the image proportion.

    Sub Keeping_Aspect_Ratio_Constant()
    Dim cPhoto As String
    Dim cPicture As Picture
    Dim cRange As Range
    Dim cItem As Range
    Set cRange = Range("C5:C7")
    For Each cItem In cRange
        cPhoto = cItem.Offset(0, -1)
        If cPhoto = "" Then GoTo line33
        Set cPicture = ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert(cPhoto)
            With cPicture
            .ShapeRange.LockAspectRatio = msoTrue
            .Width = cItem.Width
            If .Height > cItem.Height Then .Height = cItem.Height
            .Top = Rows(cItem.Row).Top + (Rows(cItem.Row).Height - .Height) / 2
            .Left = Columns(cItem.Column).Left + (.TopLeftCell.Width - .Width) / 2
            .Placement = xlMoveAndSize
            End With
    line33:
             cPhoto = ""
    Next
    End Sub
    

    Here is the output.

  29. Hello Claudiu, thank you for your question. The following steps will execute the VBA code whenever you change the dates.

    Press ALT+F11 to bring up the VBA window. Then, right click on “Sheet1” and select View Code.

    Then, type the following VBA code. This code will call the SendReminderMail Sub whenever, a value changes in the cell range D5:D7.

    Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal xTarget As Range)
    If Not Intersect(xTarget, Range("D5:D7")) Is Nothing Then
    Call SendReminderMail
    End If
    End Sub

    After that, we’ve set the cell ranges instead of using the input box. For example, the code for xDueDate is changed to:

    Set XDueDate = Range("D5:D7")

    Then, when you change the date, it will automatically execute the macro.

    However, if this doesn’t solve your problem, you can mail us your Excel file with detailed instructions to: [email protected], and we’ll try to solve it as soon as possible.

  30. Thank you, Dan, for your comment. If the values are in text format, then the COUNTIF function will return zero. You can see that we have used a IF formula, which returns TRUE when the value from column B is greater than five. Notice the output is in text format.

    • Now, if we want to count the number of FALSE in the column C, it will return zero.

    • There are two solutions for this issue. Firstly, you can add asterisks (*) with the criteria.

    • Another way is to change the formula in column C to return TRUE or FALSE as Boolean values.

    • Then, the COUNTIF function will return the correct value.

    However, if this doesn’t solve your problem, you can mail us your Excel file to: [email protected], and we’ll try to solve it as soon as possible.

  31. Hello Cielo. Thank you for your question. I have tested the function on Excel 365, 2021, and 2013 versions. On first two version, you simply press ENTER and the formula will be spilled. However, in Excel 2013 if you press that, it will only show the first value.

    Here, we have typed the formula in cell C5.

    Then, pressed CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER. But, only the first value is seen.

    To solve this, you need to follow these steps:
    1. Select the cell ranges C5:C8 first.

    2. Type the formula =MODE.MULT(B5:B11)

    3. Press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER. So, it will show all the mode values. Additionally, we have selected four cells, but there are only three outputs. Therefore, there is a “#N/A” for that reason.

    Solution to the Issue: MODE.MULT Function Not Working

    This may not work with Excel 365 version and you will need to use an “Excel password recovery utility”.

  50. Thank you Chelsea for your comment. We have checked the code and it’s working perfectly on our end. Here, we have set the date as

    =DATE(2022,8,21)

    and 1 as the increment.

    VBA Code Working OK

    Did you follow the steps correctly? If yes, then you can send your Excel file and we can take a look into that.

  51. Thank you Brian for your comment.

    Actually, we believe you are right. However, in Excel the NORMDIST function shows the probability mass function when it is set to False. We have kept the original naming as it.

    NORMDIST Function

    Moreover, if you go through the official documentation, you will notice it is written as “density function” in the latter part. So, chances are it may be displayed as ”probability mass function” but actually it is calculating the ”continuous values”.

  52. You can do that by following these three steps:
    1. You can insert any files using the Insert > Object command.

    2. Save as PDF and Email Attachment.

    3. Apply this code on a VBA Button.

  53. Hey Ash, thank you for your question.

    Suppose, we have these three items in cell Z2 as a Dropdown List:
    X
    Y
    Z
    Then, if we choose X, then it should display as a list in AA2 cell:
    P
    Q
    R

    Now, to do that, select cell range that contains PQR (eg. T1:T3), then use Name Range
    PQR as X. Similarly, name the ranges as Y and Z for their corresponding cell ranges.

    Next, use Data Validation on cell AA2.
    Allow: List
    Source: =INDIRECT(Z2)

    Then, it should do what you want.

    TLDR; Use Name Range and INDIRECT function inside Data Validation.

  54. Thank you MOE for your wonderful question. To do this you need to apply the following Custom Cell Format.

    [<=1000000]  #,"K";[>1000000]   #,,"M"
  55. You can do this by combining IF function with your formula.
    Create multiple tables for your price information for the years. Refer the year to a cell and the use it to change the VLOOKUP’s “table_array”.

    For example the year is on cell F4,

    now you can type, =IF(F4=2023,IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B5,’Material Pricing’!B5:D7,3,0),””),IF(F4=2024,IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B5,’Material Pricing’!B13:D15,3,0),””),””))

    If the year is 2023, then the “table_array” will be B5:D7
    IF 2024, it will be B13:D15.
    Else it will return a blank.

    To know more about this, you can read this.

  56. Thank you for your reply, Thor.

  57. Thank you for your question. You need to use Underscore (“_”) between two words in the Name Range.

  58. Thank you for your question.

    In my second code, instead of “ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert” you can try using “ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddPicture”, which should embed the images in the Excel file and it will not disappear.

    the modified VBA code from the second method will be:

    Sub URLPhotoInsert2()
    
    Dim cPhoto As String
    Dim cPicture As Shape
    Dim cRange As Range
    Dim cItem As Range
    
    Set cRange = Range("C5:C10")
    For Each cItem In cRange
        cPhoto = cItem.Offset(0, -1)
        If cPhoto = "" Then Exit Sub
            Set cPicture = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddPicture(cPhoto, _
            msoFalse, msoTrue, Columns(cItem.Column).Left, _
            Rows(cItem.Row).Top, cItem.Width, cItem.Height)
            
            With cPicture
                .LockAspectRatio = msoFalse
                .Placement = xlMoveAndSize
            End With
            
        Next
    
    End Sub
  59. You are welcome. I am glad that this article was useful to you.

  60. You need to change Google Drive’s Shared URL when inputting it into the cell.
    For example, if I share an image the URL will be -> “https://drive.google.com/file/d/18r34oAVY8-bicTmf3CaTIumuHp_hqZxH/view?usp=sharing”.
    Then, I need to change it to -> “https://drive.google.com/uc?export=view&id=18r34oAVY8-bicTmf3CaTIumuHp_hqZxH” (putting the values after d/ inside the id values of the URL).

    And for your second question, I think the URL is not correct, if I remove the image resolution info from the URL, then it works perfectly in my second code.

    Your URL -> “https://www.exceleinfo.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Referencias-3D-en-Excel-1024×477.png”.
    it should be -> “https://www.exceleinfo.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Referencias-3D-en-Excel.png”.

  61. According to your example, Set cRange = Range(“C5, C8, C11”)
    Then, you’ll need to change the height & width to MergeArea
    .Width = cItem.MergeArea.Width
    .Height = cItem.MergeArea.Height

    Full Code >

    Sub URLPhotoInsert2()
    Dim cPhoto As String
    Dim cPicture As Picture
    Dim cRange As Range
    Dim cItem As Range
    Set cRange = Range("C5, C8, C11")
    For Each cItem In cRange
        cPhoto = cItem.Offset(0, -1)
        If cPhoto = "" Then Exit Sub
            Set cPicture = ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert(cPhoto)
            With cPicture
                .ShapeRange.LockAspectRatio = msoFalse
                .Width = cItem.MergeArea.Width
                .Height = cItem.MergeArea.Height
                .Top = Rows(cItem.Row).Top
                .Left = Columns(cItem.Column).Left
                .Placement = xlMoveAndSize
            End With
        Next
    End Sub

    The output will be this: https://ibb.co/KXHVzSC
