View 3 RepliesI am trying to figure out how to derive a range from a selection. Here is the code i am using to select the table.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am using Selection.ClearContents command to clear data from column F and G. I know the last row as 230 but the starting row is the first empty cell which I find using Do While loop in range F31 to F230. The variable that stores the first empty cell number is 'r'.
Range("F &r:G230").Select
Selection.ClearContents
I am filtering a list in Column H and depending on what criteria I filter on I need to be able to select only what I have actually filtered for. I am using the code below to find the lower right corner of my range that I'm trying to select and this works great.

I'm looking to go to every 8th cell in a column when I hit the enter key. I was thinking of selecting a small range say from A2 which is zero to A10 which would also be zero then A18 which is zero. The reason being I have a lot of figures to put in to each zero cell then I select "Series" to fill the cells in-between with the incremental figures between the two zeros which would be the difference between the two zero figures.

I had a range of scores in some cells and one of the formulas I used so that I didnt have errors in the sheet like div/0 went like the following:
=if(b5:b50="","",sum(b5:b50)) this seemed to work really well for the one section, however I tried to get a little fancy as always and I think I messed something up. Beneath that I tried to separate each practice test with the same sort of formula resulting something like the following:
=if(b30:b40="","",sum(b30:b40)) this however just returned an error #value. I dont understand why the first formula worked and the second didnt. Then again, I'm not really an excel guru, back in college I was really good with it but I dont really remember much.
I'm writing a couple of macros which require selection of a range. The user could either select the range before executing the macro or if range has not been pre-selected, an inputbox should pop-up through which the user can select required range.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI may not have the terminology right, but here's my problem:
With the Range Select Formula i.e.
Here is what I'm trying to do:
1) I have column labels, and row labels on one worksheet which I input into
a function.
2) These inputs should be matched with column and row labels, and then input
into the index function to get a certain cell - let's call it the event cell.
I'm ok with this part. Then:
3) I would like to collect a one column array. The number of cells in this
array should depend on an input from a cell in the worksheet, and the final
cell in the array should be the column label of the column where I am
inputing the formula.
4) The array from 3) should go into the slope function.
5) Then I want to get the second array for the slope function from a fixed
column, but the same rows as in the variable first array, and this should
input into the function.
I have a spreadsheet with data organized into columns in sets of two - the first column is an X value (Pixel number) and the second column is the Y value (pixel density). I'm trying to make a macro that will select the first set of columns, chart it, move the chart to the next sheet, then select the next two columns of data, chart them and move the chart to the next sheet etc. I've gotten as far as having it make the chart and move it, but I can't seem to make it select the next set of columns - I've been trying different things for a couple days now.
Code:
I am trying to use Range.Find in a named range that has some areas where two cells are merged using the format "Center Across Selection"
Set rngTemp = wbMaster.Range("PnLDateRow").Find(what:=dDate)
I get a run time error 438 "Object doesn't support this property or method"
Is it not possible to use this method to find the cell in this range? I tried iterating through the range but that errors also.
I have to run reports every week where I show the number of days items are pending some sort of action. I use an autofill action in a macro but the number of rows changes every week. Here is the current section of my macro that I use. I just input a row number that I know will not exceed the number of rows required by my data (12900). What can I replace this with (Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("J2:J12900") so it will only fill the number of rows current filled in in either row I or K?
Range("J2").Select ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=R1C19-RC[-1]" Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("J2:J12900") Range("J1").Select Selection.Copy Columns("J:J").Select Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats, Operation:=xlNone, _ SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=FalseApplication.CutCopyMode = False
I have a date in cell s1 that I subtract from the date in row "I". I then copy the result of row J and paste it as values.
Any easy way of finding out if deleting a particular sheet / range or selection will mess up any references elsewhere in the workbook?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIm having some problems with range selection in macros. Basically, what the macro does is Copy / Paste as Values in differet sectors of an active worksheet, so this is the code for each range of cells that I need to copy paste:
Code:
ActiveSheet.Range("C14:E15").Select
Selection.Copy
ActiveSheet.Range("C14").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
Application.CutCopyMode = False
The problem with this code, is that because it specifies EXACTLY which range to select, if I add a row before that range the macro will be now selecting an incorrect range.
For example, say I have a value on cell A5, and the macro is set up to copy/paste that cell. Later on, I decide to add a row in A3, so the value I would need to copy/paste will now be in A6, but the macro will still execute on A5 (incorrect, as it should now execute in A6, and that is what I have to manually correct each time).
I am looking to run a marco for a selection range, and the selection range could vary in size.
Using the Macro recorded (whilst turning on the relative reference) the Macro runs for a defined number of cells. I would like to run certain Macro, for different ranges of cells.
Here is my
ThisWorkbook.sheets("sheet1").Range("M").Select
For Each cell In Selection
If cell.Value = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A").Value Then
cell.EntireRow.Delete
End If
Next cell
Range("a1").Select
End Sub
I want to remove all rows in sheet 1 that contain any value found in Sheet2 A I using XL 2003.
How do I change the selection of a range with a variable, and not a hardcoded number in XL2003? I have to update a set of spreadsheets every month, and it's a hassle to have to constantly open my pivot table worksheet, copy, open the summary worksheet, paste ... etc. etc. etc. The code below is my attempt at creating a ComboBox with "January, February, March, etc." and every time I select a particular month it will automatically copy data from my pivot table worksheet into my new summary worksheet in the correct column. The range of data from my pivot table worksheet will never change, so I have no problem hardcoding that in, but based on which month is selected will alter which column the data goes in in the new worksheet.
I want to be able to write code for one month (say January) and then when I want to use a different month (say February) I can just change the column number and call up the originial January code.
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
Dim ColNum ' This is the variable I want to change based on which month is called
If ComboBox1.Value = "January" Then
ColNum = 1 ' Column number for Column A- Where my January column is
Elseif ComboBox1.Value = "February" Then
ColNum = 2 ' Column number for Column B- Where my February column is
' etc. etc. for each month
End If
Call January
End Sub
Private Sub January()
' Just a quick msgbox to make sure the previous macro is calling this one
MsgBox "Is this macro running?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Check"...........................
I have three rows that each attempt to pull in data from a range on different worksheets. All but one return nothing but "#N/A" values. The one row returns values from the proper range. (User selections determine which row will have data).
Second, I successfully pull data from the row containing actual information into another row, using the following formula: "=OFFSET(E$36,CHOOSE($Y$1,0,1,2),0)" on a cell-to-cell basis. The value in $Y$1 chooses the row to look at, based upon a dropdown selected on another worksheet.
So I now have a row with =OFFSET(E$36,CHOOSE($Y$1,0,1,2),0),=OFFSET(F$36,CHOOSE($Y$1,0,1,2),0),=OFFSET(G$36,CHOOSE($Y$1,0,1,2),0) and so forth. I can find the last value in the row, but I cannot find a way to extract the address from that, and create a table that will use as a series the last 26 values in the row.
For reference, I use "=LOOKUP(9.99999999999999E+307,E49:FD49)" to determine the last cell with a value (gleaned from a Dueling Excel Youtube Video, - very helpful!).
I hope the above will be clear enough, but if not, I'll be happy to provide additional information / clarification.
I have a log that I use to keep track of my hours where the days hours and charge numbers get summed and moved to a new sheet via a command button. One of the categories is week ending date. I want the week ending date cells to merge if they match and cannot get the range I want to highlight. I can move the data, find and define the first and last cells in the range, but can't get the range.select command to work. I think it is just a syntax error, as I am new to VBA.
I can open a Locals window and watch it assign values to myFirstCell and myLastCell of "$A$36" and "$A$44" respectively, but I get an error on either the set range= or range.select lines.
My code is as follows:
Private Sub Post_Hours_To_Log_Click()
'Posts the day's hours to the hours tracker.
Dim myFirstCell, myLastCell As Variant
Dim myRange As Variant
***Removed N/A code that goes to another sheet and decides which data to copy***
Application.Goto reference:=Worksheets("Hours Log").Range("A2"), _
Scroll:=False
I have put a 3d shape on the excel sheet, and would like it unclickable. Is there way to accomplish that with the sheet still clickable. I know that you can use protection from Tools manual to protect the sheet. Is there way to protect just specific object or range of cell unclickable?

There are multiple duplicates of different part numbers in a column. When I autofilter the column, it shows 1 selection for each part number. I am trying to extract this selection fromm the autofilter dropdown box. I want to use it elsewhere in a dropdown box.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI need to know how I can create a formula which will sum a selection of the highest numbers in a range of data.

I've tried using the LARGE command but can only get an individual figure.
I have 3 name range in a control sheet ("Control")
Namerange Cat1, Cat2, Cat3. All of the name range are different. I am trying to cut down on my Userform that have each a userform with combobox selection.
Frmcat1, frmcat2 frmcat3.
I need to simplify my life. I need that if the user selects anything between F5:F20 to generate the userform and select range Cat1. If the user Select G5:G20 then to generate Cat2 and so on...
So on userform Initialize look if the user is in Column F, is yes then Cat1. If user in Col. G then Cat2 and final if user is in Col H to have Cat3 generate in the combobox.
I'm trying to write a bit of code that will allow me to clear some sheets. One of the sheets has formula for x number of rows, and these need to be left intact. Under these forumla there is an area where data is pasted, and this needs to be cleared becfore starting the process.
Colum A is blank, apart from cell A1 (the column heading) and another cell (variable row) with the value 'Paste here'. I've used this variable cell in other macros on the sheet as a marker, so need this to stay. I was going to use this code below, but I don't know how to tell it to select from the current active cell to the bottom of the spreadsheet.
Excel 2010. I have a macro, stored in a workbook.
The macro is: collecting data from another opened workbook,processing the data,saving the processed data in yet another workbook.
The workbooks' names it is operating on are hardcoded in the macro. I'm trying to make it more flexible, that is to allow user to specify both source and target workbooks along with the data columns.
The workflow follows:
User opens both source and target workbooks,User opens the workbook with the macro,User runs the macro (with a button for example),Macro prompts the user to select range in the source workbook,Macro "memorizes" the range and the source workbook's name from user's selection,Macro prompts the user to select range in the target workbook,Macro "memorizes" the range and the target workbook's name from user's selection,Macro processes the data.
I found out that this can be achieved with Application.InputBox("Select cell(s)", Type:=8) method. However there are some issues that I was not able to solve playing with the returned value's methods:
The .InputBox defaults to active workbook. I was able to select another opened workbook only with Ctrl+Tab combination, but it will not work with the end users - they are too poor with these tricks. Is there a better, more intuitive way to allow user selecting a workbook?I was not able to get the workbook's name from the .InputBox returned value property. I was trying with .application.caption and .application.activeworkbook.name - none of these worked. They returned name of the workbook with macro, not the one with selected range. How to get the workbook's name from given cells range?
I want to select a range of cells (not together I.e. b2, c3,c4,g7 etc) and copy them to another sheet but I need to check which cell has been selected as I am using a check box to set a cell as true or false if ticked or not, so if ticked a certain cell will be added to the selection set to be copied.
