Reference cell from form response tab in another sheet
I know there must be a solution to this challenge I am having. I have read quite a few forum threads that get close to solving my issue but I have not found a solution that really works. I know others are having the same issue as me. I am hoping someone can help.

I work in a department that collects event details from other departments so that I can advertise them through various channels. I want to build in some efficiencies to the current process. I created a Google Form where others can submit event details. I would like to populate the repsonses into predefined columns I have in another sheet.

Unfortunately I can not simply reference a cell from the responses sheet because as new responses come in it adds a new row to the responses sheet and does not send that data to the sheet where I want it to be referenced.

In my research I have seen the indirect function which seems to work however i cannot drag the formula across multiple cells. I am not very savvy with formulas. I am happy to provide more detail, please ask. I  think this thread could be very helpful for others if we are able to find a solution. Thank you

my sheet is:

I have a variety of number/alphanumeric combinations in a column.
See column C below.
I use this formula in Column E=IF(IFERROR(SPLIT(C262,"."),"") <> "", SPLIT(C262,"."),"")

The column format for C is Number --> Automatic.
For some reason it does NOT like to split properly on the 9E-1.01 values.
What can I do to resolve this?

How do I use =QUERY to pull a specific day of the weeks information from a timestamp submitted by google forms. That way I can make a Monday-Friday set of cells on another sheet and have the correct information for that day pull into it. I've been using this formula and changing it here or there where needed, but I cannot figure out what I would need to do to make that jump to a more complex formula.

How to Vlook up a value in a cell that has multiple values in that cell
I have a sheet that records shipping & receiving.  I want to cross reference that all the scheduled orders have shipped. However, multiple orders go out on the same truck.   This means there are multiple orders in the same cell.  It also contains how many cases we received which might complicate the situation. I want to be able to Vlook up individual PO to confirm they were sent out. For example, I want to look up 4323753 ( the 3rd one). Bonus if I can get it to say Pass instead of just repeating the number or fail instead of N.A. Is this possible with multiple numbers in the same cell?  I will want the range to be the entire column as this will be an ongoing process.

I have set up this spreadsheet to sort into the Subsheets based on "TYPE" from the master list. I would like a 2nd level of sorting, which would tell it to EXCLUDE any field from the MASTER that has "NO" Listed under "PREFERRED". 

For Instance, only TYPE: "PHOTOGRAPHER" + PREFERRED: "YES" Would sort into the "PHOTOGRAPHER" Subsheet.

Right now I am using conditional formatting to achieve the effect I want, but I have it set up to alternate field color from white to grey for only about a week (see image).

How can I have the date fields alternate between grey and white, every other day, indefinitely?

There's got to be an easier way to achieve this than what I have set up currently.


Thank you!

=Sum() won't sum, but adding same cells (=a1+a2...) works?!?
I have a sheet where the sum function always returns 0, but if I write a manual formula simply adding the same cells (=a1+a2... etc.) then the function produces the correct answer. This means that the source data is *NOT* formatted as plain text. And I've selected all the source cells and made sure they are, in fact, formatted as numbers. Still the =Sum() function does not work. I am stumped. The only reason that I can imagine Sum() not working is when the source data is formatted as plain text, but that's not the case. here.

Conditional formatting working on only part of range

I am attempting to add conditional formatting on a range of cells. The sheet I am adding the conditional formatting to is based off a query. The formatting is only working on columns D and E, and doesn't work on columns F, G, or H.



The data that is pulling from the other sheet are largely calculations. What's interesting is the data in columns D&E on the original sheet that is being queried is actually just normal values (no calculations). 

Can you not have conditional formatting on queried cells that have formulas? Or is there a different way to do this?

Hello. If anyone can assist me in figuring out why this formula will not work or if I am missing something.  I have tried it on a simpler budget and the formula works but I cannot get it to formulate.

We have a budget per school in our 6399 account however within the account every sport has their own budget which we need to track.  The Itemized budget should feed into the monthly expenses budget as it is entered.
