i need to refresh the sheet and clear all contents that are constants not as a result of formula.
i search the forum and got this code,
If ActiveCell.locked = False And Activecell.Value <> 0 Then
ActiveCell.Formula = "0"
End If
may i need to make use of loop to check whole sheet
I have a series of worksheets that are formatted for data imported from various scripts.
What I want to do is parse through each worksheet and cell, when the cell has numeric data, I want to clear the cell.
I do not want to clear the cells on the following conditions:
Cell has Text
Cell has Formula
Cell has date, month or time
Im trying to make life easier by setting up some sort of macro function that will clear the contents of all the cells except for the ones that have formulas in them.
I don't want to delete the 1st row as it contains the titles for each column.
For various reasons I need to copy a the range "a2:s251" in the sheet "FWD Input" to another sheet but I need to remove any formulas.
To do this I have used the
Sheets("FWD Input").Range("A2:S251").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormulas).ClearContents
This works fine if there are formulas in that range, however if there aren't it gives me: " Run time error: 1004 No cells were found"
So I think I need some code that counts the number of cells in the range with formulae in them and either goes ahead if there are some or quits if there aren't.
Is there a way to clear the contents of each cell in a range without losing formulas?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet from which I regularly clear all contents by selecting all the rows and selecting 'Clear Contents' from the right button menu. However, I now have added a formula in Col Y that I want to protect. I know I could select all columns up thru X, but that would clear the R1 headers, so I want to avoid doing that. I can always work around, but I'm curious, is there a way to clear only values and thus protect the formulas when using the Clear Contents command?
is there a way to do this in VBA? I've also read: - Dave Hawley's recommendation of using: Sheet1.UsedRange.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants).ClearContents
from another thread (which is excellent!)
- SHG's recommendation of using a named range, for example:
Range("Inputs").ClearContents
Given my limited knowledge of VBA, how would I now combine the two to write a VBA sub-routine that clears a named range entitled "Entry" on a sheet entitled "Data"? Would the following be the correct syntax: Worksheets("Data").Range("Entry").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants).ClearContents
i have a worksheet which is a form which feeds into another worksheet which acts as a database. i have a button which clears the form based on code which is essentially "clear contents".
the problem is i have a few cells where i would like to retain the formulas. i tried to do this with custom in validation but this did not work. i also tried to enter the code directly into the worksheet but this didnt work either (my skills are limited..). i am avoiding using protect sheet bc that in turn will affect many of my other buttons. is there something i am overlooking?
Macro to clear cells with numbers but no cells with formulas with in this macro:
Dim i As Long
i = Range("E3")
If i > 0 Then
' Copy range
Range(Cells(6, 10 + i), Cells(500, 17)).Copy
Range(Cells(6, 10), Cells(500, 17)).Select
' Paste special
ActiveSheet.PasteSpecial Format:=2, Link:=1, _
DisplayAsIcon:=False, IconFileName:=False
' Clear i columns on the right
Range(Cells(6, 18 - i), Cells(500, 17)).ClearContents
End If
End Sub
The range is where the cells with numbers need to be cleared but not the ones with formulas.
I'm trying to automate creating certain keyword combinations I need, based off of the values I input into reference cells in columns A - E; the goal is to compile a list of keywords which I will then use to track my rankings in search engines.
I'm looking to only output 500 keywords, so some of the cells in columns A, B, C & E will not contain data (column D will always have a primary Geo-target listed). This results in some of the concatenate formulas I've created outputting partial data (i.e. if there is no data in cell A10, and cell D2 contains the word "Knoxville", then cell I10 will output the data, "Knoxville "). How can I setup conditioning formatting or a formula so that these auto-generated cells appear blank if one of the reference cells has no data within it?The reason why I need the above to work is because I want to setup a formula that automatically counts the # of keyword combinations created by the data entered into any of the reference cells. With the partial combinations being listed, it skews my data. Which leads me to my next question: what is the best formula for counting the # of cells containing a full keyword combination from any of the cells listed in columns G - O (minus the data in the header cells; i.e. G1, H1, etc...)?Lastly, is there a formula I could use that would then aggregate all of the full keyword combinations within the "Complete Keyword List" column (column P)?
I'd like to have a sheet with multiple columns of data (say A thru K for instance.). Id like to reserve column A for ONLY imputing an X. The rest of the columns b-K would have data in the cells. I'd like to have a macro that when it saw an X in column A, would copy all of the data in cells B-K in that row, paste it into the next empty row of a second sheet (for history tracking), then go back to the original sheet and continue looking for additional "X"'s and repeat. Once all of the X's were copied, it would "clear" (Not delete because some of the cells would have formulas in them that would need to remain for future use.) the cells based on the "X" then finally move all of the remaining data up to the empty rows to fill in the empty rows. This last piece would be more for esthetics to have a clean looking sheet.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an month input in cells B2 (user can enter values from 1-5)
I then have a data table that has month 1,2,3,4,5 running across range G9:K9. the data is held in range G10:K19.
So if user types in 4 in B2, what should happen is that months 1,2,3 and 4 the data for these months should be cleared and data in month 5 moves forward into month 1.
So basically, anything left of the month entered is B2 should be cleared and replaced with anything right of the month in B2.

I have 30 worksheets in a workbook in which the first sheet is called summary. The summary sheet has 29 formulas with all named ranges, so one named ranged per worksheet. The issue I have is when i clear old data and add new data every month, the named range changes on some worksheets not pointing to the correct range as previous month file even if I have $
I have a huge amount of data that I use VBA code to calculate totals. I have a macro 'reset to zero' which states a cell contacts should be zero. ie G10 = 0
For some reason when I rerun the macro it adds the data again instead of clearing the first total. For example instead of G10 totaling 19 it now shows 38. But if I close the file and rerun the macro it is right.
I need a macro to take data from A2:F47 and clear this data. Then move it to A49:F235. I will be doing this several times and I want to save all of the data to A49:F235. I'm very new to Excel and VBA. I can move the data and clear it, but it writes over the data already there in A49:F235.

I will post the 2 different Macros now, then explain a slight modification needed if Possible;
Sub clear()
Dim lastrow As Long
lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
If lastrow < 3 Then
MsgBox "Nothing to clear!"
Exit Sub
End If
Range("A3:A" & Rows.Count).EntireRow.ClearContents

Clear Macro 2
Sub clearalldata()

lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
If lastrow < 5 Then
MsgBox "Nothing to clear!"
Exit Sub

Range("A5:A" & Rows.Count).EntireRow.ClearContents

Basically can the following be added as a fail safe.
I assign a button to each macro (which are on different sheets in workbook).
If I click on say the assigned macro button called "Clear All" for 1 of the macros, can a pop up box appear?
And say, "are you sure you want to proceed" or it could say "Clear All" and have a "yes" and "No" check box?
Quite simply, I've accidentally clicked on these a few times
If this was included in the macro, then I wouldn't loose all my data accidentally
I've reformatted the spreadsheet, and now some of the data are in merged cells.
The code lnow ooks like below, (Which I thought would work) but it doen't work ,,, and I'm not sure why

MsgBox "No data to Clear."
Else
Range("J5:K5,D12,G11:H11,M11:O11").ClearContents
MsgBox "All Data Has Been Cleared", vbInformation

I have a macro that
- copies rows from one sheet into another sheet based on a set of criteria
- the very very very first time the macro is run, the first row of data should be put into row 7 (formatting reasons)
- however, every other time it's run it should paste into the next clear row.
But, what is happening is that, each time its run, it puts the data into row 7 => overwriting data.
I've used the offset and counter function but perhaps I need to put it in the header of the code to get it working?

I am trying to change this code to clear the contents of the last column of my "Master sheet". I am having trouble indexing to the last column, however. I found this code online but it looks much more complicated than it needs to be. Is there any way to do this easier/change this code to fit my needs?

In Column C, I have a variable range (usually like, C5:C100000) that has data validation in it. However, only about 10% of the cells have a value from that data validation list in them (which is what I want). I'd like to write a macro that only cleared out the cells with no value in them, so that they no longer had any data validation in them. Is this possible?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have several cells on a worksheet which contain data validation and force the user to select from a list, and several other cells with free user input. I want to use a macro to clear all data, and return the cells containing data validation to blank. (I have a blnak row at the top of all my lists, so there is a selection for "blank".)
I have no problem clearing the cells requiring user input, but my recorded macro would not select the cells with validation and return them to blank.
The first cell containing validation that I need to clear is M39. I have my code listed below for clearing the other cells. If I could get a clue on how to return M39 to blank, I could figure out the rest of the cells.

It is a trading order sheet that I want to use, but also upload to a blog that I have just
started, relating to trading as a free download, hopefully it may benefit some users/visitors etc.
OK, regarding the macros.
I'm not quite sure how it is best to do it.
In total there are 13 'Clear Buttons.'
11 are 'CLEAR DATA' Buttons
12 is a 'Clear ONLY ORDER SHEET DATA' Button.
Finally 13 is a 'Clear All DATA!' Button
I think it's best if I give the cell location of where I would like the macro buttons located and what data they clear.
Clear DATA - Button 1 - (Is in Cell F3) - To Clear Data, Columns D,E,F & Rows 4 to 13)
Clear DATA - Button 2 - (Is in Cell N3) - To Clear Data, Columns G to O & Rows 4 to 13)
Clear DATA - Button 3 - (Is in Cell U3) - To Clear Data, Columns S,T & U & Rows 4 to 13)
Clear DATA - Button 4 - (Is in Cell F15) - To Clear Data, Columns D,E,F & Rows 16 to 25)
Clear DATA - Button 5 - (Is in Cell N15) - To Clear Data, Columns G To O & Rows 16 to 25)

I have a worksheet (“A”) that is populated from a second sheet (“B”). The data on “A” changes as necessary using another Macro. Most of the data on sheet “B” is numeric and comes from various formulas and results in numbers with too may digits after the decimal point. I can format sheet “A” to turn 58.22222222 into 58.2 but when I run a Macro to clear the data I lose the formatting. I need to find a way to clear only the data and not the format, or find a way to add a mask on specific columns in the macro that copies and pastes. Here is the Macro to clear the data.
