Hide "inconsistent formula" error in a selection in Excel
This may seem easy to more advanced users, but I can't seem to find this out there.
I have a complex Excel worksheet. It has various formulas/calculations throughout the sheet.
Unfortunately, these cells trigger the Inconsistent Error Warning (green triangle), and over the few thousand cells, this makes for quite an ugly sheet.
I am aware you can disable this globally, and it is possible to individually disable the checking... but is it possible to hide a range? EG: I4:JQ151. As you can imagine; individually hiding every cell is too much, and global disabling is a minefield for other parts of the sheet that DO need validation.
Cheers in advance, and sorry if this is a nooby question.
You can do this for a range by:
- selecting the range.
- Click the arrow next to the button that appears.
- Select ignore error
Opton 2 via vba: select your cells and run the following macro
Sub Example()
Dim rngCell As Range, bError As Byte
For Each rngCell In Selection.Cells
For bError = 1 To 7 Step 1
With rngCell
If .Errors(bError).Value Then
.Errors(bError).Ignore = True
End If
End With
Next bError
Next rngCell
End Sub
Sorry this is old news. Be sure to select a range where the top left cell contains an error. Then you get the yellow pop up needed to "Ignore Error"...so helpful!
