Hi all,
I have a dataset where for every row in one field (ie Column F) I need a different function to be performed based on the entry in another column (B). As such, I have been able to create a text string that represents the correct function to be evaluated for each of the cells in this Column F. The problem is I don't know how to convert this function as text to be a function that is actually evaluated. To give you an example, the cell F75 contains this formula: =IF(VLOOKUP(D175,Translation!$A$2:$D$40,2,FALSE)=" ",B175,TRIM(SUBSTITUTE(VLOOKUP(D175,Translation!$A $2:$D$40,2,FALSE),"B1",CELL("address",B175)))) The output is this text string: =RIGHT($B$175,LEN($B$175)-SEARCH(" ",$B$175)) What I need is the evaluation of the above. Is there a function that will generate this evaluated output? I really need to avoid using code as once completed, this workbook will need to be dynamic and sent to people in different companies, hence I need to avoid the macro security issues. Many thanks, Basil |
