    Display Elapsed Days in Dynamic Design

    Hi Data Dame... Thanks for the question and happy holidays to you as well. Since you have not provided any sample data, my suggestion is to use either a gantt chart (with conditional formatting) or scatter plot with error bars. See this examples for some inspiration...

    Show incremental values in excel chart

    You can use running totals feature in Pivot table to get this. You will have to re-adjust your source data. Have a column with complete date instead of month and year in separate columns. Then you can right click on the pivot table value field (addition) and choose "Show values as" and select...

    Extract only positive numbers

    3 things come to mind. 1. Seems you and IF had hit a rough patch. Did she ditch you for a hot, manly VLOOKUP in a dance bar? 2. Use advanced filter. This can extract all positive numbers and place them in a separate range or sheet. 3. Use =MAX(number, 0) if you just want to suppress negative...

    Excel "dashboard/tool" to be deployed to other users : Suggestions ?

    Good discussion... Here is what I suggest: Break your dashboard in to at least 3 components - Data, calculations and Dashboard output. Maintain individual components in separate sheets. Create a template-like version of the dashboard. This would show the output dashboard based on data &...

    Define dynamic range using Index

    Also keep in mind that any time you use INDEX in a reference with : operator, it becomes quasi-volatile, meaning the reference gets re-calculated on file open, save etc.

    Define dynamic range using Index

    In your example you say "assume this is a pivot table". If so, why not use GETPIVOTDATA? This exactly does what you are looking for without any fancy dynamic reference formulas...

    VLOOKUP for data that changes daily

    This is not possible with formulas. (you may be able to write some circular reference to work it out, but it is not worth it). You need to have a macro that can archive the values everyday (or everytime you open the dashboard and press some button). The basic approach is like this: After the...

    Extract formula from cell without VBA

    This is a old Excel 4 macro function. MS kept it for backward compatibility reasons. See below pages for help on GET.CELL() http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/excel-questions/20611-info-only-get-cell-arguments.html And if you are using Excel 2013, you can do the same with this formula...

    Splitting Values Accross Multiple Years

    I think a better way to split would be to calculate days per financial year (rather than months). This gives accurate split. See attached for a solution. The basic approach is like this: For each financial year, calculate how many days need to be considered. Then divide this days with the...
