I have a very old excel template which works fine on all latest office versions. Now I am trying to convert this excel template to Google Spreadsheet. I have completed almost 90% of the conversion except some formulas which are shoing parse error in Google Spreadsheet.
Excel Template is using a formula like =IF(B182="","",VLOOKUP(B182,[1]!PRICE_AREA,2,FALSE)). In this formula, I am not able to understand the range given in VLOOKUP formula.
Could someone help me to interpret this range notation which is [1]!PRICE_AREA
Thanks in advance
I realized that the template has references to some other excel spreadsheet. When try to convert using Google Converter, it automatically stripped the path to the other excel file and put [1] text. Now I am using IMPORTRANGE formula in Google Spreadsheet to import the range value from other spreadsheet and it works fine.

I am coming here tonight because I do not understand something about Google Sheets.
I found a super GSheet file that can do Gantt planning. So I tried to transpose that into a personal document. Before starting to make some more custom formulas I just tried to copy and paste the formula used for the reference graph ("hatched" graph) and I already have a formula analysis error.
I really do not understand where the problem comes from.
Here is the original formula, functional:
And now the same formula in my doc, but that does not work
try:
=SPARKLINE({SPLIT(REPT("7,";FLOOR((INT(G5)-INT(F5))/7));",")\MOD(INT(G5)-INT(F5);7)};
{"charttype"\"bar";"color1"\"white";"color2"\"lightgrey"})
I use importhtml to receive data from an website. Now i try to evaluate this data with an formula from my Spreadsheet.
I want to find the max value of the imported data.
I use =max() for that.
Is it possible that imported data (using importxml, importhtml, google finance) can not be further access / manipulated?
Code:
=INDEX(importhtml("http://www.cboe.com/data/current-market-statistics";"table";0);;5)
Spreadsheet formula: =max()
=max(INDEX(importhtml("http://www.cboe.com/data/current-market-statistics";"table";0);;5))
should work (and return 1.07 at the moment).
I want to get the price of bitcoin on exact date.
The dates are written in Column A and they are updated regularly from a Google form
This is an example of the working formula, but the date in it is written manually (2017-01-31):
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(ISBLANK($B$2:$B),"",CRYPTOFINANCE("BTC/USD", "price",2017-01-31)))
But when I try to get the dates from Column A, mentioned with $C$2:$C - Google sheets do not understand it
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(ISBLANK($B$2:$B),"",CRYPTOFINANCE("BTC/USD", "price",$C$2:$C)))

Thank you in advance!

In the example spreadsheet you are converting the dates into text for the column C, using the explicit TEXT() function. Then you are wondering why they no longer work as dates?
Stop converting to text.
I am scraping the information from another website to Google Spreadsheets using js formula and getting back mismatching value data (2-1-0 shows as 2-1-2000)
Please could someone explain me in details how it works and how to fix it?
Google Sheets spreadsheet engine interpret 2-1-0 as a date and display it accordingly to the default format settings for dates considering the spreadsheet language and regional settings.
If the original value it's not a date, you could make that a Google Apps Script function using UrlFetchApp add an apostrophe (') as a prefix for those values: '2-1-0.
I'm new to Google sheets, and I've got this spreadsheet with some IMPORTRANGE functions in them, and they look like this:
=IMPORTRANGE($O$2; "Jan!B33")
That first value, $0$2, is supposedly the spreadsheet key, but I'm used to that spreadsheet key coming from the HTML, for example "1QCfFIx6evcghuH4k74_ksqx6P7sb5xzUpRaoQobV6MA", or something like that.
My question is, what is this dollar sign notation, and how do I use it? Is it even something from Google Sheets or is it something someone mistakenly copied from Excel or another program?
That's an absolute cell reference. (The sheet's key is expected to be read from cell O2.)
This range syntax is supported by Excel and Google Sheets.
