Hi All,

I have a looming deadline for this spreadsheet else I'd try harder to search
for the answer myself, however, I am hoping one of you gurus can give me a
quick answer:

I wish to check that the formulae in a sheet have not been changed by a user
and that each cell contains the correct formula.

I have values in columns A:C and in D I have the formula =Sum(A1:C1). This
continues down for about 250 rows.

How can I check down the D column that the formula is correct in each cell,
taking into account the row offset change?

Thanks for any advice!

Make sure that D1 reads =SUM(A1:C1). Hover the mouse over the bottom right
corner of the cell (D1) so that it becomes a black cross. Click and drag down
to the bottom of your data. This will put the correct formula in each cell.

Hope this is what you were after

One way:

Instead of checking each formula, it's probably just as easy to re-enter
the formulae:

With Sheets("Sheet1")
.Cells(1, 4).Resize(.Cells(.Rows.Count, _
1).End(xlUp).Row).Formula = "=SUM(A1:C1)"
End With

If you just want to check each cell via VBA then something like

Sub chk()
Dim eRow As Long
Dim myRange As Range
Dim cell As Range

eRow = Cells(Rows.Count, 3).End(xlUp).Row
Set myRange = Range(Cells(1, 4), Cells(eRow, 4))
For Each cell In myRange
If cell.FormulaR1C1 < "=SUM(RC[-3]:RC[-1])" Then
MsgBox "Error in cell " & cell.Address
End If
Next cell

End Sub

Thanks Rowan, but I was looking for VBA code to do this.
Ciao!

Thanks, but I need to point out to the endusers which formulas they
overwrite (if any). Your code will certainly come in handy for other
projects tho!

Just another question:
If I need to use cell references (not R1C1) can I still do something
similar?
Then I could use this with some of my more complicated formulas?

Thanks

Why not lock those cells and protect the sheet?
