Copy Non-contiguous Cells And Varying Data Types
Nov 4, 2013
I have a non-contiguous range of cells that contains Values, Formulas, Text or Dates. In some cases a field containing a value could instead contain a formula depending on who is filling out the form and/or what information is known. For example, a cell might contain a value, i.e. Utilities, and I might either know the total ($76,310), or I might need to perform a calculation right in the cell to obtain the total (=54236+9587+12487).
My goal is to be able to copy the information contained in this non-contiguous range to the right some 52 columns (this is a safe temporary storage location) and then be able to copy it back should I need to.
One other problem may be that the source cell might be a merged cell.
Since I cannot determine whether the information is going to be a value or a formula, and I have some text and date formats to copy as well, is there some way to copy this range and keep the data regardless of format?
My Range might look like: (F4, C5, D6:D7, D9, D13:D15, D17:D18, D22:D25, D27:D30)
F4 is a date field, C5 is a merged cell holding text, D6 is the Utilities field described above. The other fields are all formatted as dollars or percentages.

If I select a group of non-contiguous cells with control shift is there any way that I can shift the same selection over to the next column. For example, I have A4 and A8 selected. When I press shift and right arrow it doesn't work.

I have a spreadsheet named PRODUCTS and in row A there are a bunch of product codes. I would like for the user to be able to use the CTRL and mouse to select all the products that they want and then once they push that button I would like it to paste the user selected cells into a sheet called Quote starting at A7.

I need to make the data in cells f4:f7 skip a row as shown in column D. How can I do this without doing a long and tedious cut and paste as I have over two years of data to reformat. Is there a code or some type of auto-format setting I could use?

I want to paste a group of non-contiguous cells, and paste the values elsewhere on the sheet while maintaining the same relative position. is this possible via macro somehow?
for example, in column A i want to copy A1,A2,A5,A9; and paste into D1,D2,D5,D9 in one step.

I want to be able to copy cell D4, I4, G10, G12 etc from one spreadsheet and paste into another spreadsheet in the same locations as the source.
Is there a macro that will do this?

I have a column that has mostly empty cells. I want to select only the ones that have data so I can perform an operation on all of them. Empty cells must be excluded from selection. I do not know where the bottom of the data is.
The solution needs to be in VBA where it is part of a larger macro affecting the user's worksheet.

I am attempting to have cells in Column 'U' deliver different drop-down menus based on the corresponding value in column 'D'. I have created 7 named lists:
List_117G
List_152
List_JMET
List_XBAND
List_PACWIND
List_VORTEX
List_ROVER
Those lists will be called up based on 7 values in column “D”:
“G”
“152”
“J”
“X”
“D/E”
“V”
“R”
So far I have only been able to get this to work for the first category “G”. When I change the value of column “D” from “G” to “152” I no longer get a drop-down. Here is the formula I am using in the List function of validation.
=IF(D6="G",List_117G,IF(D6="152",List_152,IF(D6="J",List_JMET,IF(D6="X",List_XBAND,
IF(D6="D/E",List_PACWIND,IF(D6="V",List_VORTEX,IF(D6="R",List_ROVER,)))))))

There are 11,000 rows and 4,000 are unique. The goal is to merge the data down to the 4,000 records. Each of the unique entries shows up 1 to 15 times.
In trying to solve this, I wonder if I should break this down into the different # of occurances and implement specific solutions. e.g., There are
5700 entries that show up 2x
504 that show up 3x
24 that show up 12x

I want to call a macro with a varying name that is within a module with the same name.
I have a module called Test1 and within this, a macro name called test1
I have a module called Test2 and within this, a macro name called test2
etc
On another module called Test8 (with the macro called Test8), this Test8 macro will call either Test1 or Test2 or Test3 etc depending on what I choose in an excel spreadsheet. So on sheet1, cell A1, there is a drop down with the options Test1 or Test2 or Test3 etc.
The following works to run the macro test1 from module test1 (when it does not vary i.e. i physically put in the name of the macro myself):
Sub Test3()
Test1.Test1
End Sub
The following works to run the macro test2 from module test2 (when it does not vary i.e. i physically put in the name of the macro myself):
Sub Test3()
Test2.Test2
End Sub
etc
However, if I try it so that the calling of the macro varies as below , it does not work:
Sub Test3()
MacroToCall = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value
MacroToCall.MacroToCall
End Sub

I'm trying to set an array of types equal to a set of cells in excel, first I've defined an ORoom with attributes such as ( ORID, ORName,...), then ORooms whish is a set of ORs, from OR1 to OR 30.
Now I want to put ORooms equal to the whole range for them containing all information for all ORs, I'm trying this code:
Public Type ORoom
ORID As Integer
ORName As String
Cases As Integer
[Code] ........
But it gives me the error Invalid outside Procedure, referring to "A2:A31", I've checked but that the correct range for it.

how to reference an entire column only knowing the column numbers, not letters. The response below was given.
Range(Cells(1, 40), Cells(1, 44)).EntireColumn.Select
I have a similar situation, except that I use the FIND command to return a column number based on a string match.
X_Column = Sheets ("Sheet1").Range("A1:IV1").Find("X").Column
Y_Column = Sheets ("Sheet1").Range("A1:IV1").Find("Y").Column
Z_Column = Sheets ("Sheet1").Range("A1:IV1").Find("Z").Column
Because of this, I can recieve non-sequential column numbers, simply based on where "X", "Y" or "Z" are in the sheet, which can be anywhere. I would like to select X_Column, Y_Column, and Z_Column and copy/paste to another sheet, hopefully without having to loop. I have a feeling that an answer refering to Named Ranges is coming, but I'm very green on the subject.

As a complete novice....I want to:
1. Create a list of 3 different types of projects
2. Write three different types of calculations that should be undertaken dependent on the type of project. Each will be in a separate worksheet.
3. Make sure once I've checked the project type I apply the right calculations that match the project type
4. Summarise the results of the calculations against each of the projects
Can I do this just in excel or do I need to use macros?

I am trying to have this loop go through colums of data and compare columns 3 and 4. Where there are differences, parts of the row are copied and pasted in a summary table.
My problem is the output to the summary table.
How do I control which cells in the row are copied? (I only want to copy columns 1, 3 & 4)
How do I control where the copied cells are pasted to?
Sub Change()
Dim r As Long
'Loop to Compare Values
For r = 4 To Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
'Looks For Funds That Upgraded
If Cells(r, 4) < Cells(r, 3) Then
'Highlights the row
Cells(r, 1).Resize(1, 5).Interior.ColorIndex = 34
'Copies The Applicable Cell Over Into Column 7
Cells(Rows.Count, 7).End(xlUp).Offset(1) = Cells(r, 1)
'Places a note into column 5
Cells(r, 5) = "UPGRADE"
End If
If Cells(r, 4) > Cells(r, 3) Then
Cells(r, 1).Resize(1, 5).Interior.ColorIndex = 36
Cells(Rows.Count, 7).End(xlUp).Offset(1) = Cells(r, 1)
Cells(r, 5) = "DOWNGRADE"
End If
Next r
Columns("G:G").EntireColumn.AutoFit
End Sub

My question is about creating User-Defined Data Types. Is there ANY way possible i can create a User-Defined Data Type that declares a variable of another User-Defined Data Type instead of the Pre-Defined User Types like String, Integer, etc?
The following explains my problem in more detail.
I know to create a User-Defined Data Type at the top of the module before any procedures. Like this:

My question is about creating a hierarchy of Data Types.
I need to code 3 Data Types:
1.) MealPlan
2.) Meal
3.) MealItem
MealPlan represents a daily meal plan. It should have a certain number of meals. An example of MealPlan would be "Healthy" and have a total of 3 meals. Meal represents a single meal. It should have a certain number of meal items. An example of Meal would be "Meal 1" and have a total of 3 meal items. MealItem represents a single meal item. It should have a certain number of protein calories, fat calories, carb calories. An example of MealItem would be "Broccoli" and have protein calories of .2, carb calories of .8, fat calories of .1.
By using Data Types, I hope to create meal plans, which are made up of meals, which are made of meal items. The following code creates a Data Type hierarchy for two Data Types. I've examined it closely but i'm still having a hard time recreating it for my needs as stated above.

I have three items I would like to graph, on one chart. The first is %Complete. This is a number figure. The next is the date the item is due to ship. Obv, this is a Date. The third is today's date. Basically, I would like to display in the same chart so that we can see how far a long a project is, in relation with today's date and how much longer we have until it needs to ship.
This is the current display of the chart:
Is there a way to show the ship date, as the 100% complete mark? In order to make it display half-way decent, I had to format the left y-axis to go above 100%. I first tried to format the right y-axis, but was extremely confused to setting values. I figured out that the end date is somewhere in the 40,000 value mark? WTF is this about? Is 1 equal to 24 hours? I assumed that was the case, but then when I pick the value it should end with, it doesn't seem to react that way. I want the right axis to start with 12/01/2011 and end with 5/01/2012. How can I achieve this?

I have a csv file. When I open it by double clicking, all the finance figures appear as currency with the currency symbol. I can use the SUM function on these and it's perfect.
However, when I open this file using a macro, these same numbers look the same, except that they are now left justified and are text because the SUM function no longer works. If I select a range, I get the count of the number of items selected showing at the bottom of the screen but not the sum.
I have tried opening the file using the OpenText function which has several ways of setting a date format to the fields but nothing for numbers.
I have even tried, in the macro, selecting a cell with numeric 1 and then selecting the range and pasting the 1 as a multiply function but this doesn't work either.

I an newbie at VBA but I took some short programing classes back at my college days. I am trying to declare an array with different data types and since that seems to be imposible for what I gather then my other option is to declare what I remember as a structure.

In one excel book I have 2 sheets.
1. One sheet (request type wise) contains request type and the phase which it belongs to. eg request type A belongs to phase 1 and request type B belongs to phase 2. (like wise there are 212 request types divided into 8 phases)
2. The second sheet contains raw data (request type) where the request types are randomly arranged.
What I am trying to do is:
Compare the raw data of sheet 2 with standard data in sheet 1 and paste the phase to which it belongs to with a help of macro/code, since the standard data (212 request types with 8 phases) is huge.

Putting the final touches on a project I have and the last element doesn't work 100%. the scenario: I have a function that I wrote based on the user's input of the desired column to perform the operation. As a method of error-trapping and ease of use, I set instructions for the code to activate:
1) if the user highlights multiple cells of the desired column
2) enters the letter of the column (up to "z", not case sensitive)
3) enters the number of the column
Sub Button5_Click()
Dim ColumnUsed As Variant
' find number of columns selected
For MyColNum = 1 To Selection.Columns.Count
Cols = Cols + 1
Next MyColNum
'find number of rows selected
For MyRowNum = 1 To Selection.Rows.Count
Rows = Rows + 1
Next MyRowNum..............................

I would like to be able to count the amount of entries in column C and depending on the amount group them in either groups of 3 or 4, all names would be unique...so if there are 14 names in the list they would need to be grouped in to two groups of 4 and two groups of 3, if there were 19 then 4 groups of 4 and 1 group of 3 etc to a maximum 50 people, the results could appearon a seperate worksheet say pasted on to the worksheet starting with the groups of 3 (so paste a group of 3 then skip 3 rows then paste groups of 4 skip 2 rows, the row skipping is to allow seperation and manual entry of extra data). There will never be groups of 5 or more and never less than 3

I often find that it would be useful to have a data type for geographic coordinates (i.e. latitudes and longitudes) that would e.g. permit/facilitate formatting negative values as South and West, direct subtraction of one latitude/longitude from another, conversion of degrees-minutes-seconds to decimal degrees, properly formatted axis labels when using Excel to draw maps (at the moment, I am editing the axis labels in the PostScript file by hand, when I don't use chart labeller to paste axis labels in) and so on.
(Time formats could be used, if only they could be prevented from converting hours over 24 to days, which I have not found out how to do.)
Therefore: does anyone know of any Add-In out there somewhere that could supply the lack of a geographic coordinate data type?

I am writing sum of few cells from the row above, to a single cell and then merging the cells.
I need to achieve this in vba but the problem is that the number of columns I need to use in the SUM formula can change month by month, though I know how many columns are there in each month and I am using A1 style to write formula in my code. I couldn't find any way to write formula in vba in such a way that you can change column name to variable (so that first sum covers columns 2 - 6 (or 2 + 4), second covers 7 (OR 2 + 5) - 10 (OR 2 + 8) etc.).

I use to have a macro that could copy formulas from non contiguous ranges and paste the values in the same cells. So for example, I could select a non contiguous range like B5:B10, E10:F12, and G1:G10. The macro would then copy and paste the values in those 3 ranges, so those 3 ranges would be values instead of formulas.
I think it worked by storing each range and then looping through each range to copy and paste special values.

----------A----------B---------C
1-------------------100

3--------11/29----300-------300
4-------------------200
5-------------------300
6-------------------150
7--------11/30----100-------750
Have column A with date, column B with subtotal, column C with Total. The Total (C) is made up of one to five subtotals (B). Subtotals to be included in the Total are those that come after the previous Total up to the row with a date. Only a row with a date has a Total. Is there a formula that can do this?

I'm trying to sum a varying range of cells based on conditions in another column. right now im trying =SUMIF(B:B, "Active", C4:C10)
The number it is returning is not correct and I'm not sure whats wrong. Also, is there a way to allow the range of cells to vary? Like if I wanted to insert a row and have it included in the sum.
