Copied Range - Now Need To Determine Where To Paste It
Dec 23, 2011
I have formula that copies a range of cells and pastes to another worksheet (based on the click of a button on that row), however i need to adapt it to define which sheet to paste it to based on the contents of another cell on the same row. The below code all works for the first part of this, i added in Sub MN and Sub Month_to_Classify to resolve the second part. When i run this at the moment i get
Run-time error '1004': Method 'Range' of object'_Global' failed
and the highlighted line of code is in Sub MN:
Range(ActiveCell.Offset(0, -8)).Name = "Man"
I'm trying to find a macro that will copy data from the areas of B120:E179 and I120:K179 for example (linked to another worksheet within the workbook) and special paste (Values Only and skipping blank cells) it to the next available open cell up top where basic data entry will be taking place B10:E29 and I10:K29. I need it to only copy/paste the rows with data (skipping all cells/rows with no data) and once it is finished coping I will need it to place an "X" in column M next to the row that it copied data from. I would also need it to reference the data in each row from B to E and if there is an entry say on B14 to E14 that matches it but if I10 to E29 are blank then paste that information on row 14. If it does not match or if those columns are full then paste on next available line.
I hope I'm making sense here. This is for a vehicle tracking log between checkpoints. Each driver and info will be listed on each row. Columns B through E will contain information for each driver: name, badge, #passengers, and vehicle #. The log lists location, time, and destination for outgoing travelers in columns F to H. Incoming info is listed on Columns I to K............
I have copied a colorindex UDF from here and went to VBE, inserted a new module in my Personal project, pasted the UDF and expected to be able to use it in any excel file. It's not working though. I have used this particular UDF before, but on a prevous computer that is not around for me to look at.
My goal is to use =IF(colorindex(J2)=colorindex($K$1),J2,"").
I need VBA coding that starts in a cell, moves 5 columns to the left, and then copies the left 8 characters of the string. The Macro should end there, but I'm hoping to be able to then paste those 8 characters elsewhere, say a different programme or web page.
I can move the cell no problem: ActiveCell.Offset(0, -5).Select
But how to then copy those left 8 characters so it stays in the clipboard at the end of the macro?
The formula needs to be non-cell specific, i.e. I need to use the above selection and NOT a cell name such as A5 etc.
I am trying to pull 4 cells (Q3:T3) from multiple workbooks into a master workbook. When I run the below macro, I only have the first column of the copied data returned, and can't figure out how to have it paste all four cells.
Sub ExtractData() Dim wb As Workbook Dim TheFile As String Dim MyPath As String Static CopyCell
I'm trying to perform a copy & paste operation by hand which to me should be easy in theory. I have a worksheet whose formulas have been corrupted. I have a backup of this sheet- I'd like to copy the backup sheet into the workbook. The problem is that the formulas, which reference other worksheets within the workbook, are copied over as links to the backup workbook instead of the new workbook they are being copied too. This seems simple, but how do I copy the worksheet and the references without having to go through all of the references by hand to only apply to the local book.
I would like to be able to count the number of rows with data and use it in a macro. For instance, Columns A:C and Rows 1:50 or more have data (the number of rows are variable). In Cell D1 I have a simple formula
I don't want to have an arbitrary number like D10000 in the range because it will paste in cells even if there is nothing there resulting in a ,, in the cell. I know this is avoidable by wrapping in a
Code: =IF(ISBLANK(A1)=TRUE,"",D1)
but the "" is not truly blank and jacks up the sorting.
If there is a better way by setting the row count to a variable like
when I cut or copy a range - and then select a different area - how do I reference to the original cut or copied selection, i.e. the "marching ants" range?
I'm working with some diagnostic messages produced by a communications network, and trying to isolate a certain kind of message. There are many different types of messages contained in the error logs, and I need to look at different ones at different times. As a single log may contain thousands of messages, I'm trying to use VBA to grab the ones I want. The easy part is that these logs can be exported as CSV files.
Each message contains an identifier which I can use for finding the correct messages of a given type. (I'm only looking for one type at a time.) However, this identifier is not on the first line of the message; it's buried a few lines down, and the number of lines is variable. Additionally, the length of the message is variable. The good news is, all messages of interest start with the same text string, and all of them end with another consistent text string. It looks something like this:
Message Start blah blah Message Type blah blah Message End
(Where "blah" is useful information that varies, and the number of lines of blah varies.)
The Message Start string is constant across all message types, as is the Message End string, so I can't use them to find the correct Message Type. However, they are still useful for marking the start and end of each message.
I'm using the find function to find the correct message type, then another find (going up) to get the start of the message, and putting the row number into a variable (msgStartRow). Then I find again for the end of message (msgEndRow).
That all works just fine.
What I can't figure out is how to turn those message row numbers into a range that can then be copied and pasted onto a separate worksheet.
How can I use these variables to copy the correct range? For example, this is what I recorded manually, but it's not intelligent. It can't accommodate different message lengths:
get the address of the last range copied to the clipboard? I tinkered with GetFromClipboard but I would like to find a solution that is not dependent upon DataObjects if possible. Since copied cells are "marqueed" in Excel, is there a property relating to marqueed cells address?
how I can have a routine execute whenever a cell range is copied in excel. Doesn't matter whether by selecting the appropriate menu item or when CTRL+C is pressed (I mean it must work anyway).
I need this cause I would like to store in a public variable the address of the range which is being copied in order to use it later for undoing purposes.
I first tried to find a way of accessing what has been copied into the clipboard but it doesn't seem possible without using external DLLs.
I have applied conditional formatting to a range =$F$1:$J$44 based on the contents of a single cell =$L$44="No"
Now, I want to copy the whole range, including L44 to create another range controlled by L88, for example, but the $ signs are preventing that with the new range still being controlled by L44.
Is there a way to easily copy this whole range, including the CF, as I need to copy it many times down the page and I don't want to have to edit the "L44" cell each time.
I am trying to create a macro to copy a set of datas in a row , paste into another workbook (specific sheet),then save it as one of the datas that was copied over.
Workbook1
Ticket# Description Name
12345 Test 1 David
32145 Test 2 Steve
Workbook2 - sheet (ABC)
Copy row 2 from Workbook1, paste to row 1 in Workbook2 sheet(ABC)12345 Test 1 David
Saveas Workbook2 - ABC - "12345" - Ticket #
Copy row 3 from Workbook1, paste to row 1 in Workbook2 sheet(ABC)
And so on. I will have a set of data to trasfer to Workbook2, each row different workbook.
Trying to manipulate a macro I recorded to be slightly more dynamic with some VBA code. The macro has saved me a lot of time however each month I have to re-do it due to the date changing and I'm sure there must be an easy way to adapt the below code.
Current Code (it repeats afterwards as there are lots and lots of sheets I need to perform the action on).
What I'm after is a way to alter the range highlighted based upon matching a cell in "Raw Data.xls' and a cell in "Volume Tracking.xlsm".
The cell A43 in "Raw Data.xls" contains a month (which changes every month); if the month is Jan then I would want the Range to remain as AE33. If it's Feb then I would want the Range to be AF33 (and so on).
In "Volume Tracking.xlsm" I have the months in cells AE4 (Jan), AE5 (Feb) etc.
Is there a way to locate the column in "Volume Tracking.xlsm" on row 4 that contains the value found in A43 in "Raw Data.xls" and then paste what was copied out of "Raw Data.xls" C43 and paste it in to row 33 of the correct column that holds the matching month?
If not could I add code to say if cell A43 in "Raw Data.xls" = Jan then paste to AE33, if Feb then paste to AF33 and so on.........
In my current sheet, I have a button which pastes the contents of the user's clipboard into cell A20. The data that is being pasted is a simple, single-column range of data that may or my not contain blank cells. When this button is clicked, the user's clipboard should already have data.
Some of these pasted ranges may go from A20:A40, A20:A60, or even A20:A73. The point is, the length of the pasted information is variable.
I am looking for VBA code which can look at the recently pasted range in A20:AX, find blank cells, and remove them. Here is my current code (very simple), which is only the paste function:
VB: Sub admin_btnPASTE() ' paste_align Macro ' pastes data On Error Goto Whoa
I'm currently trying to insert the copy range of one worksheet to another. Let's say I have 3 worksheets, one main and two additional info sheet. I want to search column C in main worksheet for blank cell and use column F in the same row as the worksheet name which I want to copy from, then use column E from main worksheet as the keyword for the range I want to copy(range from column E to column Z). But when inserting, I want the keyword in main worksheet such as 'G' in the same row as blank cell to match the 'G' in copied worksheet. Because the 'G' in main worksheet is not in the same column for each row, I try to search the forum but can't find the inserting part. I also attach the example workbook.
I am working on a database and trying to remove duplicates. When there are duplicates, I want to take the contents of one cell and copy them as a comment on the cell above (or below).
I tried to work on a small macro to do so, but the contents of the cell cannot be copied (it comes out as a blank).
The long way is to 'double click' in the cell, Ctrl+A, cut, click the cell above, Ctrl+F2, paste. This way is very long as I have thousands of duplicates.
Below is code I have attempted. I am learning VBA and have gathered this code from the internet and this forum. I have data that is in columns B to E and from row 7 down. I want this VBA code to run when data is copied/pasted in these cells. Where the last values stop will vary so I just want to be sure this code is executed after all the data is pasted in these cells. The data will be pasted at one time. When the user removes the data from these cells, I do not want the code to run.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) 'Do nothing if less than four cells are changed or content deleted If Target.Cells.Count < 4 Or IsEmpty(Target) Then Exit Sub
I am having a bit of amnesia right now, but I know there are some smart cookies out there who can do this in a second or two.
I have a certain range in a worksheet (D6:D27). I need to find the first blank row, or the last row with data +1. I would like a worksheet function of some sort that might be used like this
=LastRow(D6:D27)
The result would be row 10 (the first blank row).
I have been searching for the past hour and just can not get anything to work right. I have tried many different suggestions, but I still draw a blank.
Column A contains a giant list of pathogens, with each often appearing in several ways (with/without species name, various misspellings, etc.) Column B contains truncated versions of maybe 20 or so pathogens that I'm interested in. What I want in column C is for an "X" or something to appear every time the code finds a pathogen of interest (that is, from column B) in the corresponding row of column A. For example:.............
How to decide the two range object variant represent the same range? Plz check the following code, How to decide Rng4 and Rng5 is or not the same range?
Sub IsTheSameRange() With ActiveSheet LastRow = .Cells(65536, "B").End(xlUp).Row Set Rng1 = .Range(.Cells(3, "K"), .Cells(LastRow, "K")) Set Rng2 = .Range(.Cells(3, "AE"), .Cells(LastRow, "AE")) Set Rng3 = .Range(.Cells(3, "BQ"), .Cells(LastRow, "BQ")) Set Rng = Application.Union(Rng1, Rng2, Rng3) Set Rng4 = Rng.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormulas, 23) Set WhlRng = .Range("A3:DR" & LastRow) Set Rng5 = WhlRng.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormulas, 23) End With End Sub
I have a report of time balances that employees enter. I need to run a macro that looks at each cell and determines if the number is divisible by 4. (We only track vacation and ill time in 4 hour increments) If the number the employee entered is not evenly divisible by 4, I want the cell highlighted.
All of this I have figured out, the loop to look at each row, the IsNumeric function to test if there is a number...
My problem is with the MOD. I figure I should be testing number MOD number, but it is not reliable.
4.1 Mod 4 returns 0 .5 Mod 4 returns 0
I just need it to return zero if the number is evenly divisible by 4.
I considered the RoundUp function, but then it would also round anything above 3 hrs to 4, and that won't work.
I have a large collection of datasets, sorted/grouped by rows. I need to perform some calculations against these SETS (Ave, Low, Median, etc.).
The number of member in each SET is variable (1 to NN), the number of SET Members is included in the data. Example:
Code: 3 Data Sets: Row Set Members Price Ave 1 A 4 $1.00 2 A 4 $1.25 3 A 4 $1.50 4 A 4 $1.75 5 B 1 $4.00 6 C 3 $10.45 7 C 3 $14.50 8 C 3 $17.75
how to compute the AVE value for each SET above?
I am thinking if I can determine the FIRST Row number for each set, add the MemberQty as an ~offset to determine the LAST Row, then use an Indirect reference to compute the ave, something like:
=AVERAGE(INDIRECT("D"&A1&":D"&A1+C1)) The SET's Ave value should be added to EACH row in each SET.
I am struggling trying to point a formula like this to the First Row of the NEXT set.
I have a table that needs to be subtotaled. The lines for the sub-total already exist and cannot be changed.
How can I insert a subtotal into a cell that will automatically determine the range for the subtotal? Each subtotal will range (single columns only) will be from 1 line to 100 lines. I will work from top to bottom down the page so is there a way to make it work like the Sigma summation sign that is on one of the toolbars?
How can determine if a range is empty without looping it till the first value is found? On a 5x5 range a for loop is not that bad but what if its the whole worksheet? Is there a fast way to do this?
I'm feeling pretty inadequate at the moment ... I'm trying to determine something that (I think) would be relatively simple ... How do I determine if a single column , for example, (B:B) is blank (or null)? Alternatively, how do I determine if a range of cells in a column or columns, for example, (B1:B30) or (B1:D30) is blank (or null)?
I am trying to create a macro that determines if a range I am selecting has any non-numeric fields. If it finds say an cell beginning with a letter a message box appears letting the user know and possibly give the cell and value it found.
