The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

IsRowVisible Function

Asked by xrimson77 in Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software

Tags: function, isrowvisible, workbook_sheetselectionchange

I am creating a report that has filtering on one worksheet and on another it has the sums of those filtered columns.  When chosing a filter, it hides rows.  The sums on the other page do not reflect what has been filtered... It still gives the total sum of all the rows.  

I am trying to mimic the behavior of charts.  If a row is removed from a chart's data range, that row of data is no longer displayed on the chart.  This is what I am trying to accomplish with filters.

I tried doing a macro and calling it from the cell....

Public Function SGM_IsRowVisible(oRange As Range)

    If oRange.Cells.Count = 1 Then
        If oRange.Cells.Height > 0 Then
            SGM_IsRowVisible = True
        Else
            SGM_IsRowVisible = False
        End If
    Else
        SGM_IsRowVisible = "#VALUE!"
    End If
End Function

but the cells formula does not update when the cells are hidden/unhidden and I do have auto-update on.

I know another way to do it, but it is too obscure for users of this workbook to use:

using the formula =SUBTOTAL(3,C4) will return a 1 if the cell is visible and 0 if it is not.

I would like to avoid using macros to update the cells each time a filter is applied.  But using a macro as a custom formula is OK

Does anyone know either 1) How I can get my custom funtion to properly refresh when rows are hidden/unhidden or 2) A formula that makes sense to the user that they can use?

Thanks!
