    Hey so I fixed it for myself, if your file is stored in OneDrive it won't work, try storing your workbook locally on your computer and see if that works.

    Can you do this if you have nested headers i.e. two columns merged with the cell containing the word "2020", under which there are two cells with the titles "January" and "February". But then in the next column you have another two columns merged for "2019", under which there are two cells again with the titles "January" and "February"?

    Hello. Let me know if there is a way to do this. I would like to program a range of cells in such a way that when I write a number in a cell, that is seemingly empty, Google Sheets will use that number and execute it in a formula that will then display the result in the same cell.

    If you have idea to make those macros from which we can get our desired header from our different process sheets eg: raw data consists of 3-4 headers lets say name company salary nd another sheets having different many datas eg data 1 having more then 10 heading but that includes that 3-4 heading in it , so we just need to catch that specific header details below , but the thing is whenever we will update that sheet with new data automatically data should get fetched into out desired header macro sheet. Does it make sense to uh?

    For some reason, when I'm doing this, I see all the data (just like you're showing us)...but when I do "Close and Load", it creates a new worksheet, but it has no data in it. And over on the righthand-side of Excel, it has a section "Queries and Connections" and my named Query is there, but it says under it "Connection only" instead of saying the number of rows like yours does. I'm thinking that maybe I need to start from scratch again & see if I missed an important step or something. Obviously, it's connecting well because I see all of my data from my two worksheets all consolidated nicely. But it's just not putting it into the new sheet it creates. :( If you or anybody else has any tips, I'd welcome them. :)

    If you have those files on a shared drive and both of you have access ot it then it should be fine, otherwise he'll be able to view combined data but he won't be able to refresh. I have other videos on this where I use a connection to the current active workbook, so it wouldn't have a link to worry about.

    I'm curious. Can I use a master sheet with data and link that data to go into multiple sheets? I run a 24 team baseball league and use excel for all data. Each team has a tab for it's players and salary. I wanted to use a master sheet with all the players and the players salary and link that to all the 24 team tabs. So if a trade occurs I could just switch the teams in the master sheet and it will then automatically swap those players in the individual team tabs

I want to make this kzread.info/dash/bejne/a4aB2dlxYKfHZNo.html , but automatically and not manually. I know i must be active a trigger on script option sheets (to running each day or hour), but i'm not sure if i need to write a script. I don't have any code reference neither (i'm not developer). The sheet data will be show on a website, for that reason i want to randomize it. (sorry by my english, i`m spanish speaker). Regards! Felipe from Chile.

    maybe helpful if you want to learn excel in total. not helpful if you just want to find out how combining sheets work because I dont have the time to watch a one hour video until the significant 2 minutes show up. condense and focus in your videos. I personally didnt need to see all options and corners but rather how to get to the point.
