Converting Variant Return Type From Evaluate To Integer
Oct 7, 2009
I would like to get the return value for an evaluate statement which is a variant data type, convert it to an integer and do some computation. I have 4 test programs, the first 3 all work, the 4ths does not.
The first sd_test(returns 1) and st_test1(returns 1) demonstrate that my evaluate statement is correct and works,
sd_test2(returns 3) shows that I can convert a variant to an integer
in sd_test3(returns #VALUE!) I try to put both together and it doesn't work?

I have a user form and to input the hourly wage i need to convert the text entry to a number whose type is LONG and not integer.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Or is there a way to input a number in a userform without a text box entry?

Is there any way in VBA to convert a Variant into a String? This code doesn't seem to be valid:
Dim vName As Variant
Dim sName As String
vName = "John"
sName = CStr(vName)

Upon trying to use the Month function (to return the month integer from a date), in excell 2007, I get the
"Expected variable or procedure, not module
followed by (if I drill down into the help file)
There is no variable or procedure by this name in the current scope, but there is a module by this name"
error message
Do I assume there is a way around this (or if I have to do something to 'activate' the month function)

i did some VBA quite a while back, and picking it up again.
I'm trying to get a function to read in a string, and return a value based on the string value.
Public Function value(ItemType As String) As Integer
If ItemType = " Upper" Then
value = 40
ElseIf ItemType = "Middle" Then
value = 50
ElseIf ItemType = "Lower" Then
value = 25
End If
End Function
When i tried using it at the Cell level, it keep giving error i.e. Invalid Name Error

Since I cannot record the code when I create an shape (eg a rectangle), I am trying to write an small sub that would return the attributes of the object.
I select a red Rectangle I put on a tab.
I started as follow:
HTML Code:
Sub GetMeSelectedShapeAttributes()
Dim Attributes(1 To 10, 1 To 2) As String
With Selection
Attributes(1, 1) = "name"
Attributes(1, 2) = .Name
Attributes(2, 1) = "Back color shapes"
Attributes(2, 2) = .Fill.BackColor.RGB
End With
End Sub
My goal is to learn about the different attributes of shapes so I can manipulate them with code,

I have a button the runs Application.GetOpenFilename And puts the output filepath into a label. I then have another button that opens a inputbox asking to change the file name and then copys the file from above path to my destenation.
when setting the destination i use ThisWorkbook.Path & Application.PathSeparator & "Images" & Application.PathSeparator and the imputbox value as the filename. doing it like this it wont alocate a extention for the file ".jpg,ect". The label.caption has the .ext and i would like to be able to store everythink after the . as a variant.

Is/how possible to read entire ss into a variant "off-scree" without showing the user? I can open the file, I just dont know how to not show the file, select the entire sheet and read the values. I have seen the below but dont know how modify it as needed. Also is there a way to do this dynamically with variable length rows/columns?
Dim vaData As Variant
Dim lRow Long
Dim lCol As Long
vaData=ActiveSheet. Range("A1:B10").Value

I want to test how many elements are not empty within a variant array.
For example for arrays Arr1 and Arr2 below the answers would be:
- for Arr1 not empty elements=1
- for Arr2 not empty elements=0
Arr1(0)=empty
Arr1(1)=2
Arr1(2)=empty
Arr2(0)=empty
Arr2(1)=empty
Arr2(2)=empty
I've tried with function COUNTA inside VBA but counts even the empty values:
Code:
NotEmptyCells = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(Arr1)
Is there another function to count this from an array or alternative way?

The answer is probably "because I'm stupid", but I really can't get my head around it! I'm playing with variant arrays for the first (and possibly last) time,
The code I have is:
Sub test()
Dim vSheetColours As Variant
Dim iCounter As Integer
vSheetColours = Range("Colours").Interior.ColorIndex
For iCounter = 1 To UBound(vSheetColours, 1)
MsgBox vSheetColours(iCounter, 1)
Next iCounter
End Sub
(Obviously this code doesn't do anything useful - but if I could get it to work, I might have a chance of making my real code work!)
Colours is a range of 8 cells. Each one has some text in, and has a different background colour. I'm trying to store the colours.
If I run this code, I get a runtime error 13 type mismatch, and it highlights
For iCounter = 1 To UBound(vSheetColours, 1)
But if I replace
vSheetColours = Range("Colours").Interior.ColorIndex
with
vSheetColours = Range("Colours").Value
it works fine.

I have a multiple select list box which I capture the selected items by using ListBox1. List
I want to use the 'selection' to build up a string that will form a document name I want to add to an email as an attachment (all being done from Excel), however I get a type mis-match error as the ListBox1.List output is a variant.
So I'm aiming to have something like MyFile = firstpartoffilename & ListBox1.List & "*.doc"
Do I need to somehow convert the variant variable or are there some other clever tricks I can use to create my document name.

Is it possible to use an array without looping through it? I have code that has two loops: One that is just for the array and the other that loops through the data. It would be nice if I could get it down to one loop, but I'm not sure if it's possible. For example, if you have
Dim varArea As Variant
varArea = Array(1,2,4,6,8,12)
For x = LBound(varArea) To UBound(VarArea)
Do While Not C Is Nothing
Code here
Is there a way to advance to the next item in the array without using the loop.

I am using strongly typed code, but I am also pulling data from worksheets into variants. e.g.
Dim MyArray As Variant
MyArray = [MyNamedRange]
is there any shortcut to convert the variant to a typed array, which doesn't just involve looping throught the variant and using a casting function, e.g.
Dim MyArray As Variant
Dim typedArray() As type
MyArray = [MyNamedRange]
typedArray = shortcut(MyArray)

I have looked into the maximum length of a variant/string in vba and it appears to be 250 characters. I am running a macro which first lists all excel files in a folder, returning them to a sheet, then using a loop statement opens each one in turn extracting the information to a second summary sheet before closing it. The file path to the folder is ridiculously long and the macro stumbles. I used the =LEN(A1) formula to check if the file names were too long for the string, but the maximum file name length was 226 characters. I've tried both String and Variant to collect the file names but both have the same effect.

I am trying to develop some code to serve as an 'undo' for several macros that I have. They each take a selected range and perform some changes to that range. I have managed to make some code that will undo the last macro run but would like to make something that can go back several steps. To that end, I have started with the following code but am running into an issue when I need to use a variant array to hold multiple arrays of a custom defined data type:
VB:
Type SaveRange
Val As Variant
Addr As String
[Code] .....
This declares some public variables I'll need, each as an array so that I can iterate through several steps of do/undo using the undoIndex. I then use them to save each range I am about to change by calling the following macro within my actual data-manipulating macros:
VB:
Sub Save_RangeForUndo(rng As Range)
Dim i As Integer
Dim cell As Range
undoIndex = undoIndex + 1
[Code] .....
If you look at the last line here, this is my problem; I can't figure out how to properly use an array to hold each instance of OldSelection() for later referral. Just for completeness, here is my actual undo macro:
VB:
Sub Undo_Operation()
Dim i As Integer
OldWorkbooks(undoIndex).Activate
OldWorksheets(undoIndex).Activate
[Code] .....
I need to get this OldSlctVariant()() array to hold each instance of OldSelection() so that I can restore them for each consecutive undo. I'm not very familiar with the variant type and anything more than the basic use of arrays.

I have about 20 different workbooks and i want to create identical tables and graphs in each one of them using the least number of steps.
The number of the rows changes by workbook but the colums are identical. So the range will vary by workbook.
so for example:
workbook1=
name sales
a 10
b 20
c 30
workbook2=
name sales
a 10
So I want a macro that does the tabling and charting in workbook1 and automatically moves to workbook2 and so on.

Next i
End Sub
The value in UserFormInputArray = "50000"

I cant figure out why this "evaluate" function is not working as I expected. I have number/text from $A$1 to $A$5 to try and learn how to use this function but have not had any luck. I need to learn how to use it properly so I can use a for loop to change multiple check boxes on a user form that I am trying to make.

I need a way for tell Excel to NOT evaluate a formula. Basically, I want Excel to leave the value being displayed in the cell alone. The formula in the cell is a function that I have implemented in C++ and registered with Excel through the Register call.

I cannot figure it out for the life of me. When I type a formula into a cell it will not evaluate, instead it just displays the text of the formula.
When I go to evaluate the cell -- Tools | Formula Auditing | Evaluate Formula
It tells me that "the cell currently being evaluated contains a constant."
What do I need to change so that cells will evalute formulas I put into the?

I received a reply somewhere
Dim i As Integer
is better used as
Dim i As Long.
Integers get cast to long in the OS, and then back to Integers when passed nback, so it is a unnecessary overhead.
but didn't want to hi-jack that thread
QUESTION:
why would we still use "integer" then?
I tested with
Sub testInteger()
Dim starttime As Double
starttime = Timer
Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 To 32766
Dim j As Integer
For j = 1 To 32766
Next j
Next i

I have been working on a basic input sheet for progress reporting at work to standardize the information and acheive a half decent automated report.
I am have trouble validating the textbox to only allow an integer to be entered in the box. On result of text being entered on add, a msgbox should prompt the user to enter only text.
How might I do this?
