Constants As Arrays In Vba?
Apr 16, 2009Can you declare a const as an array in VBA? For example, let's say I wanted to define an array of ORDINALS:
Const ORDINALS(0 to 9) = ("0th","1st","2nd","3rd","4th","5th","6th","7th","8th","9th")

Slicing And Dicing CSV Files - Involves Arrays And Jagged Arrays
May 8, 2013I am retrieving a CSV file from the net. In this file there are 'x' amount of row data and 7 columns. I only care about the values in the 7th column for each row. I also don't care about the entire first row. A graphical version would be represented something like this, with the values I want colored in orange:
|---,---,---,---,---,---,---|
|---,---,---,---,---,---,---|
|---,---,---,---,---,---,---|
|---,---,---,---,---,---,---|
|---,---,---,---,---,---,---|
|---,---,---,---,---,---,---|
|---,---,---,---,---,---,---|
.
. extending until the end of the data set
.
I've managed to dice this thing into a jagged array by first splitting it using vbLf as a delimiter, and therefore adding those to an array called Lines(). Then I split Lines() up using commas as the delimiter and threw those into a jagged array, let's call it Breadcrumbs()(). I want to throw all the values from Breadcrumbs(i)(6) into an array of its own. Here's my code so far:
Code:
Public Sub CSVparser(file As String)
Dim Lines As Variant
Dim j As Integer
Lines = Split(file, vbLf)
ReDim breadCrumbs(UBound(Lines)) As Variant
For i = 1 to UBound(Lines) - 1
breadCrumbs(i) = Split(Lines(i), ",")
Next i
End Sub
Select Constants
Aug 3, 2007Can a macro be provided for selecting cells (including hidden) in the active sheet which are :
1. Totally consants ie not used in formula either in same sheet or other sheets
2. Constants ie figures used in formula in the same sheet and/or other sheets
Using Constants In Same Module
Oct 15, 2009I declared a constant like so:
Public Const iFirstRow As Integer = 6
I figured that any time I used this, at least in the same module, its value would be 6, but it was 0.
I changed it to ModuleName.iFirstRow, which seemed to set it straight.
Is this just how it is, or am I doing something wrong that is preventing me from using it without the module name?
Constants Are ($) Variables Are?
Apr 14, 2007While $ are constants for cells what is the symbol for variables? I guess when I dragged a formula down rows a certain number did not increase so I had to manually up each one as I went down the rows.

Jun 23, 2007I have a Excel budget spreadsheet. I need a running formula I can copy and paste to other month cells.
SUM=Bal+interest+interest1-pmt
=SUM(B11+B4+C11-D11) Interest(B4), interest1(C11) and pmt(D11) are constants. The formula I am using works but it won't copy and paste.
Detecting Formulas Vs. Constants
Oct 1, 2006In my company we have many spreadsheets with sections that contain formulas, which may be overwritten with "hard coding", manually entered constants, in certain situations.
Is there a way I can detect the differences between the two types of cells? I would like to setup conditional formatting that would highlight constants in a table that would generally only contains formulas.

Compare Value Of X Cells To Constants
Apr 3, 2008I need the SUM function. I know how to use SUM and in one of my workbooks it is used quite a few times, but for two columns it will not add the columns up. In the Q column I have this formula throughout the cells: {=IF(AND($H6="DM",$J6=1),"$100.00","")} and the other column is just about the same (just has different H6 value). Then I have a cell with the formula {=SUM(Q6:Q900)} and the end result is $ -. This formula is used for other columns and it works just fine. I have checked the formatting in all the cells and have changed them to General, Number, Currency, and Accounting. None of those working. I have also checked the Calculation Tab in Tools>Options... and it is set to automatic.

Auto Creation Of Variables / Constants
Mar 25, 2007I am trying to create a set of global variables (or actually constants) that can be used in my program based on two columns found in a spreadsheet. The first column in the spreadsheet contains the name of the variable, and the second column contains its value.
VarName VarValue
Var1 abc
var2 def
var3 ghi
When the program (which is an Add-in) is called by the user, the very first thing that I would like the program to do is to create each variable from the first column and assign the string value from the second column to this variable (or constant).
Flag Cells With Constants In Formulas
Feb 6, 2008I'm dealing with a lot of spreadsheets put together by people who are not that familiar with Excel. Because of this, there are many instances where the formulas created include constants. For example: = A1 * B1 + 200. I want to create a VBA routine that will cycle through the cells I selected and "flag" those cells that have a constant in the formula.

Using Array Constants In User-defined In Vba Function
Oct 1, 2009I have a function in VBA of the type. Function MyFunc(Indx As Integer, k As Long, Rho As Range, A As Range) As Variant .... End Function
which is called as a user-defined function from within the Excel worksheet. When called with the last two arguments being a range (i.e. Result = MyFunc(1,98,A1:A2, B1:B2)) it works fine. However, when I try to directly use an array constant instead of a range (i.e. Result = MyFunc(1,98,{10,11}, {20,30}), it returns a #VALUE error.
I thought I could fix it by redefining the last two arguments as arrays of type double, but this didn't work either (i.e. Function MyFunc(Indx As Integer, k As Long, Rho() As Double, A() As Double) As Variant .... End Function ).
Change Numeric Constants In Column To Zeros
Oct 13, 2009I have the following code
Call LastCell_Example(LastCell)
lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).row
Set Datarange = ActiveSheet.Range("B1:" & LastCell)
' Set to 0 all cells that contain constants, but ONLY those that are numeric
Datarange.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants, xlNumbers) = 0
lastcell_example contains
Dim rng As Range
' Use all cells on the sheet
Set rng = Sheets("Courtage").Cells
' Find the last cell
LastCell = Last(3, rng)
' Select from A1 till the last cell in Rng
With rng.Parent
.Select
.Range("A1", LastCell).Select
End With
When I run the code above, I don't understand the fact that the first rows in the sheet AFTER "Courtage" are also being changed to zero.
Obviously, I'm not limiting my datarange correctly, but could someone explain what I need to do to limit the changed data to ONLY the current sheet.
Array Constant Composed Of Named Constants
Jun 20, 2008I try to understand what the syntax is to create and use an array named constant which would be composed of other constant.
Example :
Constant called AvgZone1 which is =AVERAGE(zone1)
Constant called AvgZone2 which is =AVERAGE(zone2)
and then create a named array constant based on the names : =AvgZone1,AvgZone2
is not working. You cannot for example do a SUM().
Cell Type Constants Returns Wrong Order
Nov 28, 2007I'd like to add items on a UserForm1 ComboBoxes in the correct order but I can't. That's because with the code below, in ComboBox6P1 the items are added with mixed order:
For Each thing In .Range("AC6", .Range("AC65536").End(xlUp)).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants)
If Trim(ComboBox4P1.Text) = thing.Value Then
For Each aNew In .Range("AD6", .Range("AD65536").End(xlToRight)).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants)
If aNew.Row = thing.Row Then
ComboBox6P1.AddItem aNew.Value
End If
Next
Exit For
End If
Next
I should add items in ComboBox6P1 in order -> AD6, AE6, AF6, AG6, AH6, the rest are empty cells. Instead of it adds AF6, AG6, AH6, AD6, AE6. When I change .SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants) to .SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible ) it adds it in the correct order but with another 200 emtpy cells in the ComboBox6P1. The format of the cells is General.
Conditional Formatting To Highlight Cells With Formulas (versus Constants)
Nov 24, 2010Is it possible to use conditional formatting to highlight cells that use formulas, as opposed to having constants?
I have a sheet that uses formulas to provide a default value, but you can type in a number if you want to replace the default. I want to be able to easily identify which ones use the default formula.
If I use functions like FIND, they look at the result of a formula, and not the formula itself.
I know I can write a UDF that will figure it out but I was wondering if there is some built-in way.
Data Validation Fails With Named Range Of Array Of Constants?
Oct 27, 2013I've set up a Named Range that refers to an array of constants, e.g. MyRange ={1,2,3,4,5}. This appears to be fine since I can output the named range to a range of cells in a row (e.g. A1:E1) and see 1,2,3,4,5 (one value in each column).
I'd like to use MyRange as the source for a Data Validation list in a cell.
Normally data validation list sources must be vertical, so I've set MyRange =TRANSPOSE({1,2,3,4,5}). This appears to be fine since I can output the named range to a range of cells in a column (e.g. A1:A5) and see 1,2,3,4,5 (one value in each row).
When I set MyRange as the source for data validation however, it resolves to an error.
why this setup doesn't work?

Class Modules: Provide Users With In-Code List Of Constants
Jul 8, 2009I am working with a class module and some fields require specific inputs that another coder may not intuitively know. How can I create a list of acceptable conastants that will appear as a drop down when the user is coding with the custom object?
For example:
I am creating an Email Engine object that will handle all my emailing needs in code, because coding emails is such a pain. Then I can just create the blasted thing, import the class module where needed and never have to worry about it again. Some coworkers are interested in using the module for their projects when I am finished. I want to put an option for message flags in the object, but only certain colored flags are allowed. How can I get the VBE to show a little drop down with the acceptable flag constants when another user types
[Object Variable].MessageFlagColor = {drop down list of options}
I started with
Public Property Let MessageFlagColor(Value As Constants)
End Property
But that hasn't gotten me anywhere.
Format Formulas, Constants, Numbers & Text Cells Differently
May 8, 2008I am attempting to write a VBA function that will add textual formatting to each cell that has content. I am just learning VBA; so far, as an example I have
Sub NewSub()
i = 1
j = 1
Do
Cells(i, j) = "'" & Range(i.j).Value & "',"
i = i + 1
Loop Until i = 40
End Sub
but, as I'm sure you'll notice, it does not work. In essence I want to wrap quotes and follow with a comma each cell that contains any content. The actual content test I haven't gotten to yet.
VBA To Read Text Formula And Related Constants And Insert As Formula Into Cell
Jul 30, 2014I have a situation where I have to curve fit data, this can lead to different formulas being used with varying constants.
Is it possible to pickup a TEXT based formula and related constants from other cells, and then place this into another cell as a functioning formula. For Example
Cell A1 contains the formula as a text string whether it be y=a+bx+cx^2, or y=a+b/x, etc
Cells A2:A6 contain the individual constants, a, b, c, etc
I would then want the VBA to read the text based formula and put it into an output cell as a functioning excel formulae.g
In cell B10: =a+b*A10+c*A10^2
I understand picking the constants up and putting the formula should not be too much of an issue, however trying to insert the variable form of the curve fit is the part that I am struggling with, and am unsure if possible.
Using Arrays With IF & AND
Feb 3, 2010I have been trying to solve this problem by breaking it down to it's core elements and it seems to hang up at a certain spot but I can't figure out why.
formula is: {=LARGE(IF(AND(Array1+8<20,6-Array1<0),Array2,0),1)}
where: Array1 is a sequence of numbers, say, 2 5 8 11 14 17
Array2 is a corresponding sequence of numbers 1 2 3 4 5 6
the resulting array should return the numbers 0 0 3 4 0 0
and my answer should be 4
instead my answer is 0
when I break it down and select six cells and use the formula:
{=if(Array1+8<20,Array2,0)}
my result is: 1 2 3 4 0 0
and another six cells and use the formula: {=if(6-Array1<0,Array2,0)}
my result is: 0 0 3 4 5 6
when I select a single cell and use the formula: {=large(if(Array1+8<20,Array2,0),1)}
my result is: 4
when I select a single cell and use the formula: {=large(if(6-Array1<0,Array2,0),1)}
my result is: 6
I've tried this method several different ways, even using "Yes" & "No" as my result and then try to match them up. I've tried doing this not using named array and just selecting the cells themselves for the formula. All with the same results.

Sep 8, 2007I have a worksheet that has 20 columns and 500 rows. I created a VBA macro to loop through the data to hide rows that do not meet certain criteria. After the data is selected I copy and paste those selected rows to another sheet. The macro works well but I would like to use an array to contain the data that I copy and paste to a new sheet. I have been trying to find information on multi deminsion arrays but I have not been able to fully understand how to get the information into the array and then how to get it out again. Most of the examples that I have seen are for two maybe three columns (dimensions). I am hoping that someone could point me in the right direction to get started on this. I also have a few books on Exel VBA but none of them seem to address my question.

Summing W/ Arrays
Jan 15, 2009The formula is designed to sum a set of data based on 22 variables between a certain date range. In order to keep the formula manageable, I have grouped the variables into arrays.
EX.
Array 1. - 20 potential choices (Service codes)
Array 2. - 2 choices (pkg types)
Array 3. - 2 choices (volume type)
Array 4. - 3 choices (company names)
Each array (listed horizontally on one spreadsheet) calls a specific column of data to match from a different worksheet. I have no problem if only applying one array but multiple arrays return incorrect values.

Cycling Through 2 Arrays
Jan 24, 2012I have an array that will open specific workbooks. But Now I need to append a Case Number to the beginning of the file, and I don't know how to cycle through two Arrays. I have been setting it up as:
Code:
Dim Report
Dim Reports
Dim WB AS Workbook
Dim WS AS Worksheet
Reports = Array("Case01", "Case02", "Case03", "Case04")
For Each Report in Reports
Then I open the workbooks and print them.
Next Report
Now I want to add in a 2nd Array, that will Append the 1st item in CRN to Reports, then the 2nd item in CRN to 2nd item in Reports. So it would look something like this.
Code:
Dim Report
Dim Reports
Dim CRN
Dim CRNS
Dim WB AS Workbook
Dim WS AS Worksheet
CRNS = Array("0501202201", "0134851081", "9715288103", "1697774009")
Reports = Array("Case01", "Case02", "Case03", "Case04")
For each CRN in CRNS
For Each Report in Reports
Then I open the workbooks and print them.
Next Report
Next CRN
But that cycled through each CRN before moving to the next Report?
