Data referencing from multiple files

Hey everyone,  I am working on a project using Excel 2007.  There are two reports (A) and (B) that get generated daily.  I am creating a new document which calls information from both reports, counts the number of entries and spits it out into a chart.  The problem I am running into is that multiple people will be using this file from their own PCs.  The path the formula calls from changes depending on which user is running it that day: 'C:\Users\username\desktop\filename'.  My formula works if I specify my personal path but when I substitute the \Users\username with %homepath%, I get a dialog box asking which file to open.  Here is the output of what happens:

=SUM(IF('C:\Users\v-cmeyer\Desktop\[GTS20Open20Work20Orders.xls]Sheet 1'!$B$1:$B$200="GTS Service Desk",1,0))WORKS

=SUM(IF('%HOMEPATH%\Desktop\[GTS20Open20Work20Orders.xls]Sheet 1'!$B$1:$B$200="GTS Service Desk",1,0))PROMPTS FOR FILE OPEN THEN WORKS, it turns formula into the following -

=SUM(IF('C:\Users\v-cmeyer\Desktop\%HOMEPATH%\Desktop\[GTS20Open20Work20Orders.xls]Sheet 1'!$B$1:$B$200="GTS Service Desk",1,0))

I have tried HOMEPATH alone, along with C: and %HOMEDRIVE% all with the same result.  Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance!

Unreleased Memory on Property get for Shape.OnAction

Hello,
I've got a macro reading a shape's OnAction property . It's looping, and I saw that Excel keep a lot of memory without release it.

Here how to reproduce the bug.
Create a workbook with one shape.
Create a vba module with this code:

Option Explicit

Public Sub testMem()
Dim strOA As String

While True
  strOA = Sheets(1).Shapes(1).OnAction
  'strOA = Sheets(1).Shapes(1).DrawingObject.Caption
  'strOA = Sheets(1).Shapes(1).DrawingObject.Text
  DoEvents
Wend
End Sub

Run this macro and see Excel memory width in windows task manager.

This occur only when reading this property not on writing, nor on reading other string property.

Returning Multiple Values as Dropdown List

$

Hi,Actually I plan to create an eRequisition Form for our branch sites. My focus would be the consumable items of Lexmark printers. I want to create cascading drop-down lists based on data table (worksheet : All) as per attached. From lots of examples I've seen in this or other similar forums, I notice that in order to allow this cascading to work is by creating column with header name identical with the input in the 1st List. But I'm thinking, if I need to do that, then there gonna be hundreds or maybe thousands columns to create as the number of branches are expanding, so I think tht should not be practical. I found examples that shows how lookup 1 value can return multiple values but I totally cannot think of a way to allow those multiple values to be returned as dropdown list rather than displaying all in rows of the worksheet.What I need is that, in 1st list, upon selecting the branch, it'll populate all items related to the branch and when selecting the item, it'll populate brand/model list for the particular item only. The input in the dropdown list should not have duplicates. Been trying using pivot to do this with macro that enables auto refresh once any changes made in the table. Is there anyone can help me to create this cascading drop-down lists just based on the table as per attached? I really want to avoid having to create extra tables to allow this cascading to work.Hopefully I clarified my situation clearly and there would somebody can help me out.

Excel 2007 organizing numbers for each day of month

$

I'm trying to make a chart that organizes what was done during last month.

On Sheet2, I have all my dates and times (1/15/2013 10:45 AM) in column F (about 500 rows worth) and the results in column H (pass, fail, cpc, purchase).

I also have a column that shows elapsed times (times from column E vs times with column F). The equation looks like this: (=INT(F2-E2)& " Days "&TEXT(F2-E2,"hh:mm") & " hrs:min"), this also gives me the chance to determine if a CPC or Purchase exceeded '0 Days 01:00 hrs:min'. That equation looks like this: (--ISNUMBER(FIND("CPC",Sheet2!H:H)),--(Sheet2!I:I>"0 Days 01:00 hrs:min"))).

 

What i want is to set up a pivot table or maybe a spreadsheet on Sheet3 that shows all days of the month in column A (1-31 days) and columns B, C, D, E that show how many Fails, Passes, CPCs, and purchases total for each day. Total for each day in column H. And columns F and G to show elapsed times that exceeded '0 Days 01:00 hrs:min' for CPC and Purchase, and '0 Days 02:00 hrs:min' for the rest.

 

I'm sorry for asking for so much but i've been trying to figure this out during last month and i can't seem to get far at all.

Excel add Pivot Table column MDX

$

I'm new to MDX, trying to learn, does not seems easy as SQL.

I extract data from a cube within excel :

I would like to add a column that would be :  COL2 - COL3

I know I need to go in OLAP Tool, create a MDX Calculated Member or Calculated Measures.... but I don't know how to formulate my MDX Query. Everywhere I find some sample of MDX Query they are all part of a complete select statement which does not help to understand.

I just want a calculated column :  Col2 - Col3  .  How do I do that ?

 

here is the underlying MDX query :

SELECT NON EMPTY 
      Hierarchize(
                  {DrilldownLevel

                  },,,INCLUDE_CALC_MEMBERS
                 )}
                 ) ON COLUMNS,
      NON EMPTY 
      Hierarchize(
                  {DrilldownLevel
                 ({[Dim Type Budget].[Budget des ventes].[All]
                  },,,INCLUDE_CALC_MEMBERS

Cannot Minimize Excel Window

$

I am in my company's IT department and have one of the strangest Excel issues. Not sure if I should post it here or on the Microsoft Community Answers forum.

I know this is going to sound like user error but I promise you it isn't. I have a user running Windows XP SP3 with Office Pro Plus 2010. When she's in Excel and has the window maximized, she'll click the excel window in the task bar to minimize it just like you would any other application. However, when she clicks it, it restores down like if you hit the restore button in between close and minimize. When its in the restore window, if she clicks the excel program in the task bar, nothing happens.

So basically, every program minimizes and restores when you click it in the task bar except for excel. When maximized, Excel restores down instead of minimizing. When its in restore down window, clicking excel in the taskbar does nothing.

This is difficult to explain so if I need to reword it or include screenshots to better explain please let me know.

Thanks in advanced,
Rich A.

Macro to perform sort works ok in excel 2003 but not in 2007

$

In Excel 2003 I recorded a macro that sorts event log files saved in csv format. It works on any of my event log csv files. But when I recorded a macro with the same steps within one of the same event log csv files using Excel 2007 it will only work with that original csv file. When I try to run it on another event log csv file it gives me error 9 subscript out of range.  When I viewed the code I saw that the macro had recorded the name of the original csv log file.  How do I code the macro so that it will run in any of my event log csv files, as it did in Excel 2003?

Question on Aligning Colums Excel 2010

I have a simple excel sheet with some data. Please see the example below.

http://i1273.photobucket.com/albums/y407/amirsd2/Excel_zpsf3fabd8d.jpg

Basically I have a sheet of data in a specific column. Each row in the column has many fields. The column is sorted alphabetically. The first data in the row is taken out using "text to column" as seen in the column B. The same data is used to generate a SQL report which also produces the same data with some additional data that is needed column D. The issue is that when I sort column D "SQL data" the sort is different because the sort now is only one data value.

I cannot sort the original extracted column B again. How can I make the column D sort so that it appears like column B. Any tips would be nice...Thanks

I am trying to graph precision and recall data as shown below in excel each rank in the picture should be a different plot line instead of series 1 and series 2 for only ranking#1.

My problem is I cannot figure out how to select all plot points correctly. The left part of the graph going up is precision while the part going right is recall.

Excel 2013 & Oracle query - Date in where clause

$

Hi  Experts,

 I have a powerpivot report which pulls data from oracle tables(Siebel).

The first query is

Select ROW_ID, CREATED, NAME from S_ORG_EXT where CREATED >= '01-JAN-2013'

The query hits oracle exactly as shown above. But for some reason oracle ignores the where clause and pulls all rows.

Later on we changed the query to

Select ROW_ID, CREATED, NAME from S_ORG_EXT where CREATED >= to_date( '01-JAN-2013' , 'DD-MON-YYYY') and it works fine.

Does anyone know why this happens?

Thanks,

Aji Paul.

Excel 2013 hosting in WPF using HwnHost

$

Excel 2013 is being hosted in WPF using HwndHost Type. A class is inherited from HwnHost Type and BuildWindowCore method is overridden in inheriting type. In BuildWindowCore method, an MDIWindow has been created by calling CreateWindowEx method of user32 dll. This Window is set as parent for Excel 2013 Workbook Window. Now this Excel window is visible under content control of WPF. User is allowed to edit cells in the visible window of Excel and also writing operations are happening on Excel object from code.

Problem Description:

  1. On opening Excel workbook in WPF window, when user edit cells which are under UsedRange of Excel Workbook, Excel stops working and crashed.
  2. If User edit cells outside UsedRange, User edit cells successfully.
  3. Sometimes Context menu doesn’t work properly on hosted Excel workbook. When user clicks any command on Context Menu, nothing happened.
  4. Why Excel 2013 Workbook window cannot be made Child Window by apply Child Window Style. On Applying Child window Style, SetWindowLong throws exception. This is not the case with Excel 2010.

These problems does not exist on Excel 2010 or Excel 2007.
