My question is about assigning strings to an array.
The following code searches a cell for three strings (said, told, asked):
I need to do a vlookup that takes a string from one cell and then tries to find that string (embedded in a larger string) in the table array
Essentially I imagine this involves the FIND function at some point.
Attached is an incredibly simplified example of what I'm looking for.
Im new to Macros. Im trying to find a string of text assign that to be the top of the data and then find a different string and assign that to be the bottom of the data. Then run a loop whilst inside that data range. Am i going about it the right way? Attached is a sample data file.

Public Function SimStock(Initial_Stock_Price As Double, _
Expected_Return As Double, _
Volitility As Double, _
End_Time_Days As Double, _
Number_of_Steps) As Double
SimStock = Initial_Stock_Price * Exp((Expected_Return - Volitility ^ 2 / 2) * (Number_of_Steps / End_Time_Days) * NRnd2() * Sqr((Number_of_Steps / End_Time_Days)))
End Function
Now what i need to do is to apply this to an array. so that when i run the sub it will simulate prices from today up to some number of days that i specify. This number of days will be equal to "End_Time_Days" which is part of my function. Furthermore the simulation has to be such that it uses the above formula for the first entry but then replaces "Initial_Stock_Price" with the result of the preceding entry in each subsequent entry.
I am trying to assign a range of values with different types( date,time,integer) to an array. I am using the following command which works fine.
Dim vArr() As Variant
vArr=range("A1"). currentregion.value
However when I try to print the "time formatted" values in the second column of the range I can't. I can't use timevalue function as well cause it doesn't treat the values as string but integers. Why is this happening even when I declare the array as variant?

I am trying to assign an array element to select a specific cell then assign a value to it. Below is the general code that I am working with. Does anyone know why this is not working?....
View 8 Replies View RelatedI wish to search for a substring within an array of strings and just return back an indication that the substring exists withing that array.
so for instance let the substring be "rang"
and let the array be
{"apple","orange","lemon"}.
I wish to put a single command line next to my substring and wish to search through that range and return a key code if it exists. And then I will repeat the same search for other substrings. For the moment being, I don't care too much about the number of occurences or the exact cell address where they occur. All I wish to know is whether they exist in that list or not.
So it looks to me it is like a SEARCH command but except on a range of text (Rather than a single text) with an array formula. I have tried MATCH but my case is not an exact match either.
I need to declare a two dimensional array that will return the Row and the cell's string value. My only solution is to return the row as a string like this.
Public GlobalArray(2, 100) As String
How to get more control than this? Maybe I should just declare it as a variant but this might open it up for problems later.
I have a table with three columns, column 1 is a list of names, column 2 is where I want my result to appear, and column 3 has my array of search values. Column 1 and 2 could have any number of rows with values, but column 3 will have less values. It looks like this if it's working right:
Item List
Result
Search List
[Code].....
What I am trying to do is for each cell in column 1, I want to see if there is a matching value in column 3 - it has to be either an exact match or a partial match (i.e. the string appears somewhere in the values of column 1).
I have been trying to use MATCH like this:
=ISNUMBER(MATCH($A2,$C:$C,0))
but it does not return true unless the match is exact.
way to get these partial string matches to work?
I have an array of variants..
lvarArrSource = Array(12, "=F", 2, 3, 4, 5, 11, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, "123", "F", "F", "F", "F", 11, "F", "NR", "F")
which i am using to map columns between spreadsheets. The basic numeric entries refer to columns to copy. But I want to make the routine smarter with the strings.
If array(x) = 12 (For example) Then
Do something
End If
If left(array(x),1) = "=" Then
Do something Else
End If
If array(x) Is String literal (e.g "xyz" Or "123") Then
Do a third thing
End If
i cant find a typeof or isstring kind of function. Isnumeric works ok for some values but quoted numbers (eg "123") return true (which isnt what i want). I have tried the left(string,1) = """ but excel seems to hide the quotes.
I have an excel worksheet with about 10K rows of data in column A.
I have also another list of data, about 200 rows of data, in column G.
I need to color each cell in column A that contains, anywere in the string, any of the data strings in column G.
Example:
in column A
row 1: info@duende.com
row 2: rasko@silvester.com
row 3: supportonline@fabius.com
row 4: myhelp@friday.com
in column G:
row 1: help
row 2: info
row 3: support
I need rows 1, 3 and 4 in column A to be colored.
I would like to assign a value to a row so I can enter different quantities in a cell in that row, and then sum the total of multiple rows.
Example;
I want to add up c3-c10, d3-d10, e3-e10. I want to make row3=$4, row4=$5, row5=$6 etc.
So c3, d3, e3, f3 cells will have different totals ex; I type 10 in c3, 12 in d3 and 15 in e3... but they are values of $4, so
When I sum up a column c3 will actually represent $40, c4=$48, e3=$60 and so on.
Another example;
row3=$4 and row4=$5
i type 10 in c3, and type 5 in c4.
the sum of c3 and c4 = $65
How I assign a value to a row?
I've been doing a very simple table for my father's bass club. The club has one tournament a month and the 2 lowest weights are dropped. The table has a column of names on the left hand side, beside the name is 12 columns for one weight per month, right of that is a sum of the fisherman's catch weight in column O and to the far right is an equation that removes the 2 lowest weights =O4-(SMALL(C4:N4,1)+SMALL(C4:N4,2))
In the past I have put a 0 if someone didn't fish. He has asked me if it's possible to put DNF for Did Not Fish in lieu of a 0. This way they have that information and know how many people fished and caught nothing versus how many didn't fish. I need to know how to assign DNF a value of 0 for the whole table so that I can still drop the 2 lowest weights
I have a column with names (repeated names by month). There are about 3700 of them spread over 12 month. so it's about 300 names per month.
Is it possible to assign an ID (a number) to specific names?
So let's say - John Smith will have ID 1 (for example), and will always get this ID?
The first column shows the sample data. The second column is what I'm expecting.

I have a problem with a spreadsheet I am working on.
When a user clicks on column N in the sheet, I have a yes/no message box open asking if they would like to create an invoice for a customer, which opens an external spreadsheet.
The problem I have is that I can't seem to get the message box to perform seperate functions for each button (open the external spreadsheet 'for yes' OR Close the message box 'for no). I can only assign one funtion between the two buttons.
The code I have is as follows:
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("N:N")) Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Do you want to create an invoice for this customer?", vbYesNo
If response = vbYes Then
Workbooks.Open Filename:=("H:Copy of Support Service Charges Form.xlsx")

I have a table that needs headers assigned to it. I have copied a link to view the example spreadsheets. The first sheet has the table and the second sheet has the headers. The code is designed to go to sheet 1 see what file name is being used and assign the header to the file name. Each file has two columns of data for Location 1 and Location 2, but have the same file name so it's assigns the first header, but ignores the second header. How to fix it so that it assigns it by the file name and also if it's Location 1 data or Location 2 data.

I have a number of cells which are connected to various formulas. EX. A1 = 7. Well I want a formula in A2 which can look at A1 and if A1 = 5-6, then A2 = 1, if A1 = 7-8, then A2 =2, if A1 = 9-10, then A2 = 3, if A1 = 11-12, then A2 = 4. And so on.
I have a word, for example ROCK. I asigned numbers to the word. R=1,O=2,C=3,K=4. My Question: If I type in ROC it must return 123. If I type in KR it must return 41, etc. Is there a basic formula I can use to solve this?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have ranked the times of races for 30 participants. The results are in a
column. I want to display the points given in the next column. The only
points given are for 1st through 6th place. 1st=6pts, 2nd=5pts, 3rd=4pts,
4th=3pts, 5th=2pts, 6th=1pt, 7th place through 30th place =0. Times,
therefore ranks, will change with each race, so this information needs to be

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've built a form in VBA which is working great. I now want to call it by creating a button in a worksheet and then assigning the Form macro to it so the user can just click a button. I've tried looking for it in the Assign Macro dialog and it isn't there (even though I've declared it as a public sub) and I can't call it from a normal Module as it says it's an undeclared variable.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two spreadsheets, one named Tracker, the second named Data. Data is a central database spreadsheet with account #s and Tracker pulls information from it. A team is assigned an account based on the last two #s of the account #, called term digits.
Goal: A VLOOKUP to where if a column equals the term digit range (example, any accounts ending in 00 to 09), it will pull the account # from Data to Tracker.
That part is easy, the tricky part I'm having issues with is that I need it to do the search mentioned above AND search for account #s that end in 60.
So: search for 00 to 09 and 60, pull the account # from Data to Tracker once found.
Edit: Term Digit is on column B and the account # is on column A - both in the Data spreadsheet
