I want to create a summary sheet that will lookup a particular cells value on
multiple sheets (averaging 58 sheets) in a workbook (e.g. $J$19) based upon a
cell next to it ($I$19) that will match the criteria on the summary sheet
(e.g. w1, w2, w3).
I have tried VLOOKAllSheets but when there are other similar workbooks open,
it doesn't work right.
Anyone? I appreciate your help.

There is no built in lookuop that will work over multiple sheets, I would
recommend using Laurent Longre's excellent Morefunc that can be downloaded
here

In your case it would be

=VLOOKUP(Lookup_value,THREED( etc

Thank you, Peo.
I will give this a try. I'll let you know!

Good morning, Peo.
I am having difficulty.
Following your lead, I tried:
=VLOOKUP(D6,THREED('M010:M305'!$J$19:$K$19),2)

It immediately changes to
=VLOOKUP(D6,THREED('M010:[M305]M305'!$J$19:$K$19),2)


Upon copying down my list of search criteria, I get the following:
=VLOOKUP(D6,THREED('M010:[M305]M305'!$J$19:$K$19),2) = 208,000
=VLOOKUP(D7,THREED('M010:[M305]M305'!$J$19:$K$19),2) =208,000
=VLOOKUP(D8,THREED('M010:[M305]M305'!$J$19:$K$19),2) =5,124
=VLOOKUP(D9,THREED('M010:[M305]M305'!$J$19:$K$19),2) =5,124
There are no worksheets is this particular workbook that the reference can
search, so it is returning the previous result.

I tried:
=INDEX(THREED('M010:M305'!$J$19:$K$19),MATCH(D6,TH REED('M010:M305'!$J$19)0),2)

It immediately changes to:
=INDEX(THREED('M010:[M305]M305'!$J$19:$K$19),MATCH(D6,THREED('M010:[M305]M305'!$J$19)0),2)

but, happily, it does give me the correct results. However, upon saving and
closing, the cells contain:
=INDEX(THREED('G:\TAX\2004\ZZZZ\M010:[M399]M399'!$J$19:$K$19),MATCH(D6,THREED('G:\TAX\2004\ZZ ZZ\M010:[M399]M399'!$J$19),0),2)

This is not a valid reference to the worksheet, but only to the directory
containing that worksheet.

I do appreciate your help with this, Peo!

This works for me

or are you using this from another workbook

I don't see any problems with that, if you would have asked that is what I
would have suggested..
I always use dummy sheets when doing things like this (I even put one at the
start as well)

=VLOOKUP(D6,THREED(Start:Stop!$J$19:$K$19),2,0)

The zero at the end tells it to look for an exact match while omitting it or
using 1 (or TRUE for 1 and FALSE for 0)
will look for the next largest value that is less than the lookup value,
also the array must be sorted in ascending order
so the first sheet must have the lowest value etc. By using 0 or FALSE it
can be sorted in any order
Good luck

This is not a valid reference to the worksheet, but only to the

I do appreciate your help with this, Peo!

Are all the tables in the sheets you want to lookup of the same size like

Ok, first make a list with all sheet names, i.e. if your sheets are named
Sheet1
Sheet2
Sheet3
etc

make a list by typing all sheet names into that list, assume you type the
list into K1:K15,
now select K1:K15 with the mouse and type a name into the name box (name box
is above column A's header)
create this list in workbook1, name it for instance MySheets

Assume that in workbook1 the lookup values start in A1 in Sheet1

in any cell in workbook1 sheet1 put

=VLOOKUP(A1,INDIRECT("'[workbook2.xls]"&INDEX(MySheets,MATCH(TRUE,COUNTIF(INDIRECT(" '[workbook2.xls]"&MySheets&"'!A1:A50"),A1)0,0))&"'!A:B"),2,0)

entered with ctrl + shift & enter

will lookup what's in cell A1 in sheets 1 15 in workbook2, note that the
workbooks need to be open

Sheet1
Sheet2
Sheet3
etc

make a list by typing all sheet names into that list, assume you type the
list into K1:K15,
now select K1:K15 with the mouse and type a name into the name box (name box
is above column A's header)
create this list in workbook1, name it for instance MySheets

Assume that in workbook1 the lookup values start in A1 in Sheet1

in any cell in workbook1 sheet1 put

=VLOOKUP(A1,INDIRECT("'[workbook2.xls]"&INDEX(MySheets,MATCH(TRUE,COUNTIF(INDIRECT(" '[workbook2.xls]"&MySheets&"'!A1:A50"),A1)0,0))&"'!A:B"),2,0)

entered with ctrl + shift & enter

will lookup what's in cell A1 in sheets 1 15 in workbook2, note that the
workbooks need to be open

The zero at the end tells it to look for an exact match while

it

using 1 (or TRUE for 1 and FALSE for 0)
will look for the next largest value that is less than the lookup

also the array must be sorted in ascending order

it
can be sorted in any order
Good luck

I tried this and discovered a few problems that were self

I
rectified them as follows:
My VLOOKUP formula did not contain the ,0) at the end. I am not
familiar
with that!

I believe the problem with the file structure arose where there
was
no
worksheet M305. This made it create a link to look in the currect
directory
for a file that did not exist. To fix this where an M305 sheet is
not
needed,
I intend to create a hidden sheet named "stop" as the last sheet
and
refer
to
it at the end within my formula.
=VLOOKUP(D6,THREED('M010:Stop'!$J$19:$K$19),2,0)
If you see any danger in theis approach, please let me know!
Your help is so very much appreciated, Peo. Thank you very much!

or are you using this from another workbook

=VLOOKUP(D6,THREED('[test.xls]M010:M305'!$J$19:$K$19),2,0)

replace test.xls with the name of the workbook

The other workbook needs to be open or you'll get a REF error
when
you
try
to calculate it

I am assuming here that the sheets are named M010:M305

Good morning, Peo.
I am having difficulty.
Following your lead, I tried:
=VLOOKUP(D6,THREED('M010:M305'!$J$19:$K$19),2)

It immediately changes to
=VLOOKUP(D6,THREED('M010:[M305]M305'!$J$19:$K$19),2)


Upon copying down my list of search criteria, I get the
following:
=VLOOKUP(D6,THREED('M010:[M305]M305'!$J$19:$K$19),2) =
208,000
=VLOOKUP(D7,THREED('M010:[M305]M305'!$J$19:$K$19),2) =208,000
=VLOOKUP(D8,THREED('M010:[M305]M305'!$J$19:$K$19),2) =5,124
=VLOOKUP(D9,THREED('M010:[M305]M305'!$J$19:$K$19),2) =5,124
There are no worksheets is this particular workbook that the
reference
can
search, so it is returning the previous result.

I tried:


=INDEX(THREED('M010:M305'!$J$19:$K$19),MATCH(D6,TH REED('M010:M305'!$J$19)0),
2)

It immediately changes to:


=INDEX(THREED('M010:[M305]M305'!$J$19:$K$19),MATCH(D6,THREED('M010:[M305]M30
5'!$J$19)0),2)

but, happily, it does give me the correct results. However,
upon
saving
and
closing, the cells contain:


=INDEX(THREED('G:\TAX\2004\ZZZZ\M010:[M399]M399'!$J$19:$K$19),MATCH(D6,THREE
D('G:\TAX\2004\ZZZZ\M010:[M399]M399'!$J$19),0),2)

This is not a valid reference to the worksheet, but only to
the
directory
containing that worksheet.

I do appreciate your help with this, Peo!
