I am trying to define some variables as byte, but I want 0 to be a valid value rather than null. When there is no data, that is when I would like for the variable to be null.
Is there a way to accomplish this? In addition, I use the same variables in a loop, which are reset at the beginning of the loop. Is there a way to reset a variable without giving it a value (like 0)?
I'm working with some data exported from a database. Unfortunately, when data is exported to excel, cells that should be completely blank (i.e. ISBLANK formula would return TRUE) actually contain empty strings.
What is the fastest way to replace the empty string with a true null?
How exactly does Excell treats uninitialized variables ? I have created a function which takes in one of the cell values as a parameter.. However, it seems that when I don't reference an empty cell, the code does not work. Let the function be ABC, and the let the cell be A1
When I use
=ABC(....,A1,....) , it works
However, when I use
=ABC(....,,....) I am getting an eror
Now , I tried using the IsEmpty function , and it seems tht when i use ,, or ,"", then the variable is not caught.. however, the variable is caught when i use an empty cell such as ,A1,
FYI, I am using the vba's formula method to assign this function to a cell. So when I use
"," & ActiveCell.Offset(to reach A1).Value & "," , I see blank ,, when A1 is empty
This will probably turn out to be a really quick one: I've got some named ranges I'm working with that in of themselves use Offset to automatically expand a list.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am building a template ("Table") that will import data from 4 other spreadsheets and then format the data once its all in the template. I need to delete all rows where a name didn't import. The names are landing in column B (starting with B22), so I set up my code using an active cell loop macro to examine each cell to see if it was empty, and then to delete the row if it were. I've tried 4-5 iterations of code but nothing is working correctly.
Apparently when the fields are copied over from the other spreadsheets, some empty cells actually have something in them such that they are not completely blank. What syntax I can use so that I capture every instance of a blank/empty cell and delete that corresponding row? Some of the code I've tried is below.

I'm looking to put a formula in the last column (Card Valid/Invalid (N3:N8)).
I want this formula to say IF Project Name OR Start date OR Due Date or Type OR Author OR VS are empty then I want the last column to say Invalid else if all of these columns are filled in then give valid. Also if a completed date or no. of review loops are filled in but not both then give Invalid but if both are filled in then as well as all the rest of the info give Valid.
Project Name - Valid/Invalid is B2-N2
I created an add-in for Excel 2003 by following your site's instructions, substituting my own subroutine's name for "MyGreatMacro" (for the purposes on testing all it does is spit out a MsgBox). I then put the resulting xla file on a network drive and went through the standard process for installing an Addin :
Tools -> Addins -> Browse for the file and hit ok, check it off, etc
This works perfectly fine when i try to install on my own machine, but when I try on other user's machines I get an error message stating that the xla file is not a valid Addin. Excel's error message in this case is about as unhelpful as they come.
I have list of various web site and i want to keep only valid site . How it is possible ?

i have a customer (im a computer tech, but excel is not my specialty) that has a weird problem with her most important file. She meant well, but tried to back up a 2.6 MB file to a floppy disk, and after it told her the disk was full, she was unable to open the file again in excel. (File Format Is Not Valid) It will, however, open in word, with the data there. Its in an unusable format, as there were 12 different worksheets (one for every month), all on the one page of MS Word. Better than nothing, but still will take weeks to reenter properly. I searched for a repair utility and had one that seemed to work, but only put a "0" in column A row 8. A far cry from what we are looking for. Ive also run a disk recovery program in the hopes of finding an older version of the file, but came up empty.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a textbox (on a userform) that populates into a spreadsheet. the way I have it set up the user enters a time, but omits the semicolon, and a macro adjusts the time to show the semi colon in the spreadsheet, that is working great. But what I would like to do is to use a textbox change event to force the user to enter a valid time using a 24 hour clock. I have the textbox set to accept numbers from 0 to 2400, using the textbox change event but this allows the user to enter an invalid time such as "1575" basically anthing above 59 for the last 2 digits would be invalid.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am using the GetSaveAsFilename function to save a file. I have the filefilter as "Excel Add-In (*.xla),xla", however when I save a file this way as an add-in, then try to load that add-in, I get the following error message.
'C:Documents and SettingsUser1DesktopBook3.xla' is not a valid add-in.
Does this mean that the GetSaveAsFilename is not capable of saving a valid xla file?
I'm looking up values from a pivottable.
I have the pivottable options to show nothing if error.
If the pivottable has nothing showing for the quarter I would like the formula to return nothing.
It's currently returning '0%'
So I'm getting the following
Qrt1 = 88%
Qrt2 = 0%
Qrt3 = 0%
Qrt4 = 0%
Average = 22%
The answer I want is
Qrt1 = 88%
Qrt2 =
Qrt3 =
Qrt4 =
Average = 88%
In the pivottable the only quarter that has a value is Qrt1 (88%) - The others are blank
Since there is a chance I could have a qrt with 0% I can't just iqnore the zero when averaging. how to do this?
Here is my formula
Code:
=IFERROR(GETPIVOTDATA("HHCompl",DataSelection_units!$A$5,"fldEntity",$A$1,"fldUnit",$A39,"Quarter",B$38)," ")
When I insert a double quote ("") into a cell as a Null value this causes problems when creating formulas that use the cell.
I've searched many posts to do with Null values but can only find information on checking for a Null value, like ISBLANK().
But, I've not been able to find any information on how to write a formula like
=IF(ISBLANK(A1), "",A1/B1)
and substitute the double quote ("") with a value that is Truly Null?
How do I use the following code
Private Sub ListBox16_Change()
Label28.Caption = ListBox4.Value + ListBox8.Value + ListBox16.Value + ListBox20.Value
End Sub
But only add the listbox values that are not null?
Website has a URL where the last element is a number within a range (e.g. 1000 - 4000).
But the numbers are not sequential (e.g there are 100 pages, first URL ends "1001", last one ends "6000".
As shown below I set the code to cycle through every possible number:
VB:
For i = 1001 To 6000
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"URL;http://(whatever)" & i _
, Destination:="(Whichever cell the output starts in)"
Not the most constructive use of the national grid.
Is there a VBA that can check whether the URL "number" is genuine before doing anything else - and move straight to the next "i" if it doesn't exist?
i need to set the range of variables that user can add to the range.
For Example:
AA_*
BB_*
CC_*
ABCD_*
so we accept variables STARTING with AA_ OR BB_ OR CC_ OR ABCD_. If the user enters sth else, then I want to disable the "Enter" key. (If the Cell is Empty than it is also OK!!)
If disabling the Enter key is not possible then maybe i can use Conditioning Formatting? But the question is then if i can use for single condition OR statement.
My goal to checkup/analyze our contact details database, to do that i have to manually tag the invalid entries ( blanks, 0, wrong cellphone format, x, NONE etc. ) for cellular phone field as " INVALID " and if the cellular phone format is correct we'll tag it as " VALID " ( please refer to my attach file ) i have to get this task as fast as i could and our database comprises of 200,000 imagine if i have to manually tag it even in batches i have to figure out how to automate this..but the filter function of excel seems to be lacking for me. if there's a way how to automate this with this function:
- define field to be filtered out as for this case ill define cellphone # format and tag it as " VALID "
- define field to be filtered out as invalid entries ( blanks, x , 0, numbers less than 10 digits, entries that are telephone format, NONE, /// , XX, aa, @ ) or any sort of entries that are not cellphone format
I have a large spreadsheet that has thousands of hyperlinks that I would like to check periodically to make sure they are up to date. I have found dozens of examples of VBA code that will do this for me and seemingly very clear instructions on how to do it (for example this), but haven't yet been able to successfully run anything in my spreadsheet. It either doesn't do anything, or I get an error message of a bad file name.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI successfully created two PivotTables two days ago, but when I added more rows of data to the source worksheet I could not refresh either PivotTable view. So after much frustration, I deleted both worksheets and again tried to create a new PivotTable using the wizard. I keep getting this error, and have no idea what it is telling me so that I can go about fixing it:
"The PivotTable field name is not valid. To create a PivotTable report, you must use data that is organized as a list with labeled columns. If you are changing the name of a PivotTable field, you must type a new name for the field."
I am using EXCEL 2007. When I refresh the individual pivot tables, I don't get any error. But when I click on Refresh all Pivot, I get a Reference if not valid error. The source for my pivot is referencing to another workbook. Why is there this error and how can I resolve it?

Is this Excel VBA code syntax valid and executable?
Range(ActiveCell, ActiveCell.EntireRow.UsedRange.Columns.Count).Copy
If so, what exactly does this code line achieve?
I am using VBA to determine the data type of the active cell value. I have the following:
'To check Number
IsNumeric(ActiveCell.Value)
'To check Date
IsDate((ActiveCell.Value)
'To check Formula
ActiveCell.HasFormula
'To check Text (*not perfect solution)
WorksheetFunction.IsText(ActiveCell.Value)
However, I cannot find the way to check for Time. In addition, the method IsText will return True even if the active cell value is a date.
When a user inputs a month and then a day, I want to be able to check to make sure that the day entered is possible in that given month. Is there a way to do that which is not too complicated?
