Converting VBA String To A Range
Apr 3, 2013
I'm currently trying to copy a dynamic range based on the row number of a selected listbox item. I'm able to get the row number of the selected listbox item from the data tab in my file. I, however, am stuck when it comes to copying a fixed column / varying row range from this tab and copying it over to another tab.
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Dim ID As Long
Dim Row As Long
Dim Cnt As Long
Dim SearchTermsStr As String
Dim SearchTermsRng As Range
[Code] ....
SearchTermsRng is returing "Nothing" but the SearchTermsStr returns "F3:O3"

I was wondering if it was possible to do something like this:
x = 15
test = "x"
MsgBox (test)
with the message box saying "15" instead of "x". I guess more specifically what I want is:
x = 15
test = Range("A5").Value 'Range("A5").value = "x + 2"
MsgBox (test) 'I want "17" to be outputted
Is this possible? Somehow convert the string test into an integer and read the variable?

vName = "John"
sName = CStr(vName)

I have a problem in converting text to columns for a string that has 1000+ entry's. Excel bumps me out after 851 using the Split function.
The data I can only download in a text format has >1000 fields that are seperated by ",". Not a problem so far but when I attempt to convert to columns there is a maximum limitation of 851.
Data1,Data2,Data3,Data4...................Data1000,Data1001,Data1002 etc...
I have tried:
Sub Split_Delimeter()
Dim Words() As String
Words = Split(Cells(2, 4), ",")
MsgBox "String contains " & (UBound(Words) + 1) & " words"
End Sub

I have a set of letters in a single row DISATAGFOORCBORDQFINFCOBBKIEHDSMCNRSKARDFCJSLCQCECFVSBCBOYKPVYKC. I want to distibute them across 5 columns such that each letter occupies one cell. I might want to specify a different column width later on so the solution should be flexible.

I need to be able to locate a date in a spreadsheet bassed uppon a user input date. I am looking for the week that contains the user's date. However it seems even if I initialize the value as Date, it still reads the user's input as a string.
Is there an easy way make sure the system automaticaly recognizes the user's input as a date, or is there a way to quicly convert the string to a date?

I have a spreadsheet that has 3 different dates in 3 different cells:
B4 - 3/24/2014
B5 - 4/6/2014
B6 - 4/14/2014
From that information I need once cell to display "Mar 24 - Apr 6 paid Apr 14"
Reason being is that I am importing journal entries into an accounting program and I am allowed one cell each row for the description. This would let me change the dates only and my descriptions will fill out before import. It is important that the months are abbreviated to 3 letters as I am limited on how many characters the description can be.

I have a function that will be used across 10K+ records at a time, so I was taking a look at optimizing it a bit. At the start of the routing I have a string with a 9 to 15 digit numeric value in it. I wanted to load each individual digit into a byte array. I started out using:
byVal = StrConv(sVal,vbFromUnicode)
But that actually loads the ASCII Character codes into the array not the digits themselves. From there I considered looping through the array applying CByte(Chr$(byVal(i))) but then I wondered if it would make more sense to just load the array with Mid$(sVal,i,1)... Does anyone have tested knowledge on which performs better? Is there an option C I have missed?

I have hit an issue when tranfering a string date from VBA to excel, excel thinks the string is US format and swaps around the days and months even though the system and excel are setup for UK date format:
Simple example of the problem:
Sub test()
Dim testy As String
testy = Now
'testy will equal 04/10/2007 17:20
Range("A1").Value = testy
'A1 will equal 10/04/2007 17:20
End Sub
Now I know in this example that if I used DateValue(testy) it would work, but our situation is a bit more complex as we are running this is a loop testy is not always a date.

I have an ACD program that gives me a time in "mm:ss" format, or in ":ss" fomat. I have 2-3 problems with charting this data.
1 I am inheriting the production of charts from someone else, with old data being displayed by seconds only I am supposed to keep this display.
2 the data that is in mm:ss format is recognized as being in full date format, for example 2:14 is recognized as 2:14:00 AM instead of 2 minutes, 14 seconds.
3 the data that is in :ss, ie :44, is recognized as a string.
Any thoughts on how I can convert both cases to a integer seconds? I know for example that I could mid() the second condition, but I am stuck thinking about the first condition.
I can't adjust the way the time comes in, unfortunately. It is an auto-generated export of the data from a switch.

I have a userform that reads in a list of names into a combobox. When you choose a name from the combobox it then shows the that persons details from a sheet containing all the names.
I have some text boxes that allows the data to be modified and returns it to the sheet which works fine. What i also want it to do it put the data from the form into a sheet for that individual. For example the name of Ford would go into the Ford worksheet.
How do i read in the value from the combobox on the worksheet and use it as a variable to use in my code. For example
Sheets(Value from the combobox).Cells(NoOfRows, 3).Value = Me.TextBoxChangePosistion.Value
*NoOfROws is the variable to find a blank row

I recieve a spreadsheet each month with the following column of data:
9 Paddington House
PO Box 73
Whiteleys of Bayswater
9-10 Grove Road
134/138 Drymen Road
44-46 The High Street
1 Midland Road
48 Donegall Place
As you can see, it consists of addresses, each line is a separate address. I need it to be converted so that the data is split into the following 5 fields:
Street number from
street number letter from
street number to
street number letter to
street
If there is no street number , then it should just enter the data into the street field. If there is a range such as 44-46, it should enter the 2 numbers into the from and to fields. Sometimes this is in the format 44/46. Also, sometimes there are letters, eg 44a-44b, in which case each section (ie 44, a, 44, b) needs to be in a spearate field.

I have a string of data coming from a SQL Server data connection into my workbook. The value in the column is a text string that is pipe delimited. I need a macro to parse the data from that column into applicable separate columns. I would typically use text to columns for this and parse it out manually... but the tool I'm creating is one of the automated variety, so that will not suffice for this application. I need it to do this automatically when the data connection refreshes.

I need to state whether a particular word, string or text in one cell, appears anywhere in a sheet.
Attached example: does the word AAAAAA in cell A10, appear anywhere in the range A3:A6
I need to be able to drag this formula so need a generic formula rather than adding specific text in speech marks to it.

I am working on a project where I need to remove records based on certain criteria.
The key pieces of information here are the Company ID, the Contact ID, and the Product Codes. Each Company ID can have multiple Contact IDs, and each Contact ID and have multiple Product Codes. (To be more clear, imagine one company with a Tax department and an Audit department - with each department having a separate contact person. And, each contact person purchasing multiple products.)
I have already summarized the data by identifying the unique Contact IDs and combining the corresponding Product Codes into a string.
Now, I need to determine if any Product Code within the summarized string matches a Product Code in a separate list (a Range of cells). If so, each instance of the Company ID needs to be moved into a different tab. Also, to understand the magnitude of my records, I am working with 25,000+ unique records in the first tab, 8,000+ summarized records in the second tab, and 50+ product codes in the separate range in the third tab.
My first thought was to use a For loop to determine if any cell in the Range is found in each string and, if so, add the related Company ID to a dictionary object. Then, run another For loop against the Company IDs in the summarized tab (8,000+ records) to determine if the ID exists in the dictionary and, if so, moving the row to another tab.
My second thought was using the original data (unique records) - I would load all the Product Codes in the separate Range into one dictionary and run that dictionary against the individual Product Codes in the unique records tab (25,000+ records). If the Product Code in the unique records is found in the dictionary, I would add the related Company ID to another dictionary. Then, I would run a For loop comparing the second dictionary to the Contacts IDs in the summarized tab and move the ones that exist.
In summary, the two ways I have come up with to accomplish what I need includes:
1) a For loop, a dictionary, and another For loop
2) two dictionaries and a For loop

I have the following string which I want to assign to my rngTAddress (dim as range) variable.
='M:1 - Schedules & Spreadsheets[04 Subcontractor Cumulative Billing Tracker.xls]LCD'!$AZ$79
This string is current stored in the strTargetRange variable.
How do I get rngTAddress to refer to this cell in another workbook by assigning this string as the range?
Ultimately I want to use rngTAddress.offset(-2,0) in a formula.

I have a string variable (myCell) that contains a cell address (i.e. $A$66)
I have a Range variable (mrR1) that I want to give that value to.
I cannot figure out how to do it. Can anyone help?
After that, I'm hoping to use the Range variables in a Goal Seek.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim myMatch As Double
Dim myCell As String
Dim myStart As Range
Dim myIRR As String
Dim myR1 As Range
Dim myR2 As Range
myMatch = WorksheetFunction.Match(0.25, Range("K67:DZ67"))
myCell = Range("HurdleStart").Offset(0, myMatch).Address
myIRR = Range("IRRStart").Offset(0, myMatch).Address
' myR1 = myIRR value
' myR2 = myCell value
Range(myR1).GoalSeek Goal:=0.25, ChangingCell:=Range(myR2)
End Sub

I'm working in Excel 2003. Is there a way to convert strings to Ranges on the Excel commandline?
I have a lookup function in an estimate sheet that uses 2 ranges, stored as strings, in another worksheet. They are used to return a price from another workbook. When I use named ranges to access them with the lookup function, it doesn't work. But when I cut and paste the strings into the commandline it works prefectly?
$A10 = Part Number to search for
MaterialOptions is a named Range
eg: '[Catalog.xls]PriceList'!$A$13:$A$17
PriceOptions is a named Range
eg: '[Catalog.xls]PriceList'!$Z$13:$Z$17
LOOKUP($A10,MaterialOptions,PriceOptions) = #VALUE!
But...
LOOKUP($A10,'[Catalog.xls]PriceList'!$A$13:$A$17,'[Catalog.xls]PriceList'!$Z$13:$Z$17) = Success!

I often need to save the user's current position on a worksheet, do some stuff then get them back to where they started. In the past I've saved the current location sometimes as a string and sometimes as a range.
Code:
Sub BackToRange()
Dim BackToHere As Range
Set BackToHere = Selection
' do stuff
BackToHere.Select
End Sub
Code:
Sub BackToString()
Dim BackToHere As String
BackToHere = Selection.Address
' do stuff
Range(BackToHere).Select

I'm having trouble setting the Range "UtilizationRange" using a variable, "CurrentRange" to store that range. I get the error "Run-Time error 1004: Method 'Range' of object'_Global' failed".The rest of my code works when I set the utilization range using the actual range for my purposes, but the problem is the range will change each month and I don't want to change it manually each time. There's a cell in the excel sheet this refers to (AG3) that holds the range value, which in this case is [N7:N75], and I would just like to return that value to the variable "CurrentRange" and set UtilizationRange equal to that.
The value is returned to CurrentRange, but it's the last line that's giving me the problem.
Sub RangeTest()Dim UtilizationRange As Range, Cell As RangeDim CurrentRange As String
CurrentRange = Range("AG3").Value MsgBox (CurrentRange)
'This returns the value [N7:N75], which is what I want
Set UtilizationRange = Range("CurrentRange")End Sub

I am playing around with code to extract stock prices from Yahoo! Finance.
The data is extracted from Yahoo in the form of a CSV string, for example:
"HSBC HLDG",596.80,"-0.22%"
I've written code to split the string into cells as I'd like, but just realised that if I copy the above text manually from the Immediate Window (on the back of a Debug.Print) and paste it anywhere on the worksheet Excel automatically splits the string and reformats the values.
Although my code works perfectly I was wondering whether there is a shorter way of doing this, i.e. by just coding up the above action? I've tried a few routes but haven't found a solution yet.
