Refresh tabs
Excel is having a tough time shifting from one tab to another and recalculating the page. If however I clikc F9 the tab is fine. Is there anyway to make it when clicking upon the tabs that they refresh automatically? I was considering a macro that would refresh every 15 seconds or something, but I thought I'd ask this first. I'd appreaciate help with either, thanks. -- MACRE0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MACRE0's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=10848 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=478527 |

Refresh tabs
While that's exactly the type of thing that I'm looking for, it doens't seem to work in this case. If you'd be willing, I'd happily send you the speadsheet so you can see exactly what I mean about excel not caculating the tab until some other action is performed. -- MACRE0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MACRE0's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=10848 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=478527 |

Refresh tabs
No :~( but I've discovered the root of the problem. I am basing several lookup formulas on a truncated down version of the cell("filename") to get the tab name. Is there better way of referencing the tab with a formula than this? {=MID(CELL(“filename”),FIND(“]“,CELL(“filename”))+255)} Though the tabs of course remain static, the cell in the sheet states the previous tab's name until recalced. Perhaps if I change this formula, which all the lookups are based upon, a sheet refresh will no longer be required. -- MACRE0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MACRE0's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=10848 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=478527 |

Refresh tabs
=MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,255)
Any cell address like A1 will anchor the formula to the worksheet. Gord Dibben Excel MVP On Sun, 23 Oct 2005 18:57:13 -0500, MACRE0 wrote: No :~( but I've discovered the root of the problem.

Hi, I may not understand what you are doing but this will give you the tab name in whatever cell you put the formula in. Why do you have array brackets on your formula? Try this: '=MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,255) Don't change the A1 except: To refer to another sheet, replace A1 in formula with SheetName!A1.

TY, that lack of an anchor really did me in. Shame on me for trying to cut corners. No longer does my active sheet retain the prior tab's just viewed information. -- MACRE0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MACRE0's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=10848 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=478527 |
