    Sumif based on row and column criteria

    Luke, I thought on the same, and then saw your comment... the problem with that is the transposition of one of the arrays. If you Evaluate the formula, you'll see it clearly. that said, The fastest solution I can think of is a =SUMIF(A2:A5;1;B2:B5), for each week and cat. nevertheless...

    data lookup

    WOW !!!!!! now, you are only one step closer to the top !!! I'm going to review it, as the results seem to be the same, and see if I can get rid of all the IFs, using Daniel Ferry's technique of treat IF as boolean operations. in any case, my inventory is now even faster !!! Thanks again...

    data lookup

    Luke, you are a Monster!!! (in the best sense of it !!!) Now, we all know index/match is better than offset as it is non-volatile, hence faster. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to upgrade your current formula, avoiding the use of vlookup !!! That said, you are now my...

    data lookup

    sure !! when adding a new record, the formula is changing cell references incorrectly. this is for row 498, the last on my list: =INDEX($C$2:$C497;MAX(IF(($A$2:A497=A498);ROW($A$2:A497)-1))) this appears for row 499, the new record...

    for the first value, yes. But not for the rest. It returns a #Value! Error.

    Averages in Pivot Tables 2003

    Well, it seems I've found the problem. the name of the field I was trying to add a calculated item to was "Year". I just changed it to "Period", and it worked like a charm, allowing me to add the delta between years, or "periods" now. hope this helps to anyone else. Rgds, Martin

    icon sets in Excel 2010

    Hi all, I am using Excel 2010 now, and I am concerned about Conditional Formatting. when you select any icon set (colored arrows, for instance),icons appear aligned to the left of the number, instead of the right, so the corresponding icon is far from the number, and the next icon is closer...

    How to debug an UDF?

    @Chandoo: I've read the post, and found nothing that I can use. @JP: thanks for the code !. IT works the same, and still cannot debug line-by-line the code when error. And the "error" sentence does not appear. For instance, I have "Client1" as a value in a cell, and when applying the UDF...
