I thought i would create some code to highlight a batch of cells so i can modify formatting all together rather than cell by cell
I am unable to get the generated code to select all ranges together, it only shows the last range
Here is my code
Code:
Sub SelectRanges()
'
' Macro1 Macro
'
'
Range("D12:H12").Select

I'm getting a Run-time Error 1004 when using a Range(rangestring).Select.
It only seems to occur when I'm trying to select more than 35 cells. Up until 35 it works just fine.
My code is designed to select individual cells in a worksheet based on user selections from a list, and as I said, works fine unless they select more than 35 items.
Is there a limit to how many cells can be selected using Range...Select? If so, I can't find it documented anywhere.
setup:
Columns: c)6:00 AM, d)6:15 AM, e)6:30 AM
Rows: 4)tech1 Phone, 5)Tech2 Phone, 6)Tech3 Phone
What I am tying to do is to select the column that matches the time, for instance anything before 6 AM would select Column C, betweeb 6 and 6:14 still selects column C, 6:15 to 6:29 selects column D, Etc
I have created the following code by recording a macro. The ActiveCells (“A1.A5203”) were based upon the actual number of records at that time. I wish for this macro to be used in a template and the actual number of records will vary from time to time. What do I need to add to this code to allow the AutoFill function to operate and fill only the actual number of records that exist.
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=LEN(RC[-2])"
Selection.AutoFill Destination:=ActiveCell.Range("A1:A5203")
ActiveCell.Range("A1:A5203").Select
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Range("A1").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(RC[-1]=8,""0""&RC[-3],RC[-3])"
Selection.AutoFill Destination:=ActiveCell.Range("A1:A5203")
ActiveCell.Range("A1:A5203").Select
I have made a sheet where the user can insert/delete rows in a certain intervall of rows. The upper row is 17, that is I have named the cell "First" and then the last row "Last" and then I am using integers:
Dim intStartrow As Integer
Dim intLastrow As Integer
intStartrow = ActiveSheet.Range("First").Row + 1
intLastrow = ActiveSheet.Range("Last").Row - 1
So it is only possible to add/delete rows if the markerer is in between the above rows.
Now I would like to select the rows, from first to last. Since the rows are never the same, users add and delete rows all the time, I can not use
Range("A17:Z49").Select
Can I somehow make a range selection using the Integers, somethimg like
With ActiveSheet
Selection."intStartrow:intLastrow"
End With
I have a userform that allows the user to view, modify or delete individual records (rows) of a worksheet in a workbook. If a particular item in a record is modified, a check occurs to ensure that the values for that item remain unique. All of that works exactly the way I need. The breakdown occurs when the records are then autosorted by a the values in a particular column. After the autosort, another column of values is copied and pasted to a different worksheet within the same workbook. For this to work properly, I must have the userform open along with the worksheet containing the records. If the userform is open with any other worksheet open, I get the following VBA error message "Run-time Error '1004' : Slect method of Range class failed". I need to be able to open the userform with any worksheet active and not experience this error when the autosort, copy/paste occurs. This is the code for the user form, the module for autosort, copy/paste and checking for unue values.
This is the sub in the worksheet with the records
'This checks for unique values
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
Dim LLoop As Integer
Dim LTestLoop As Integer
Dim Lrows As Integer
Dim LRange As String
Dim LChangedValue As String
Dim LTestValue As String
Dim smessage As String
'Test first 7 rows in spreadsheet for uniqueness
Lrows = 8
LLoop = 2
'Check first 7 rows in spreadsheet
While LLoop <= Lrows.........................
I get the following error: Run-time error '1004': Select method of Range class failed at the following code line:
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A6").Select
I need the code to allow a user to select a column of their choice in an open workbook of their choice so that data can be lookuped up and changed. I am happy to create the code to do the lookup/changing, however the nearest I have found is the use of an inputbox which is limited to the active spreadsheet only. Some people have said the input box could be used over to another spreadsheet but I have not found that to work.
What I will need returned is the workbook name, sheet name and column. That will allow me to point to that and do the task.
This code could be used by 5 people and those 5 people could be running it on 20 different spreadsheets.
I thought this would be easy to find but it has eluded me. When using Excel normally, if you do a simple lookup formula, or create pivot function, excel prompts the user to select the workbook/sheet.
I cant seem to get to work together in the same macro but that work great seperated. I need them to be in the same macro. The first just simply copy's text from one workbook to another:
Sub Test2()
ActiveSheet. Range("a1").Copy _
Destination:=Workbooks("punchlist.xls"). Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count,1).End(xlup).Offset(1,0)
End Sub
That worked ok but I needed to change it to the "active cell" instead of cell "a1". So then this line of code was made:
Dim userInputCell As Range
On Error Resume Next
Set userInputCell = Application.InputBox("Use the mouse to select a cell on any sheet", type:=8)
On Error Goto 0
If userInputCell Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Cancel pressed"
Else
Msgbox "You selected " & userInputCell.Address(,,,True)
End If
The second code works just the way I want it but it doesnt copy over the text to the other workbook. I assume the 2 codes need to be together but I cant get it to work without errors. I also need the text to copy over without changing the borders on either workbook.

Is there a way to cause a particular VB function I write to execute any time a value in a particular range of cells is changed?
I thought I had it when I thought I could do a sum formula, range on the cells to be checked, then call the function as a side effect of this sum. It was then that I realized I didn't know how to call VB from within an Excel cell formula.
1. Is there a way to call VB (say, sheet1.myFunction())?
2. Is there a better way to do what I want than to try to hack a side effect into a formula in a cell that depends on a sum (which "watches" for the changes for me.)
The cells would have text in them, not numbers, so using the sum-based formula would be iffy at runtime to me at best. What I really want to do is run a function on the cell value as a string. There are a lot of such cells (thousands) so ideally I would only need one external cell to activate the function (which scans all the cells I am concerned with) rather than have to paste a custom, relative formula into thousands of cells manually to have each one watch one cell, if you know what I mean.
I have this:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate
Range("A1").Select
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(rowOffset:=1, columnOffset:=0).Activate
ActiveCell.PasteSpecial
End Sub
it errors to: SELECT METHOD OR RANGE CLASS FAILED
In 1 cell i need a forumla to give me a starting number and take one away each time a code or codes are dislayed in a cell range. Something like this
A1 = 23 days or any number days i needed
Cell range B1:C52
every time a selected 1 or 2 letter code appears in the cell range i want A1 to subtract 1 day from the starting number, i would need it to subtract half a day if one code appears ie HD, the codes may be P, OT, HD
I want to put a range select statement to select a cell and count down 10 cells and copy.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a command button on sheet MASTER. When the workbook is Activated I want it to check and see if in sheet COSTM, cell B3 there are the words "Project Number", if so then show command button (ClearPrevious), if not, don't show. Also, when the If statement is finished, then the workbook needs to end up showing the sheet MASTER. I have tried various codes and none work, or they are on perpetual loops. I know this has got to be simple, but cannot find an example to take from to solve the issue. Would appreciate any help offered. Below is code I have right now.

What I need is a formular/vba code that can divide hours into different time ranges. The picture below shows an explanation.
In example 3 there time range analyzed goes from saturday till monday. Here Sunday should get 24 hours and the time range 23-08 for weekdays is at this point 00-08.
I've tried everything I could imagine to get this one working,

Is there a simple bit of code which I can add to a button which will always select the next tab along?
Looking to add a 'next tab' button at the top of each sheet so it can be run through quickly, almost as a presentation.
I could just do
Sheets("TabName").Select
But that would involve doing a new one for each sheet, and would need modifying if I then re-ordered the sheets.
What would be some code to select the 1st empty row in a sheet. I need to select entire row. To be easy it could be first empty cell in A, but would like whole row selected.
