Creating A Local Named Range

May 8, 2006

I am working on a process model, which requires that the same basic procedure be carried out for each unit in the process.

One worksheet is allocated to each unit with data concerning the flow streams being passed from the previous unit and the product being linked to the next unit. Although the same procedure is therefore being followed on each sheet, the input data differs.

I currently have the code to perform the required technical operations and calculations for a single unit. This code is very much dependent on named ranges.

I want to use the same core to perform the routine-operations, but need either unique named ranges on each page or I need a way to define name that is limited to the specific worksheet on which it is located.

For example, I might have an input range for a heater and splitter, with a technical add-in in VBA performing calculations on the input for each unit. How can I use two separate instances of the name "Input" instead of "Input_Heater" and "Input_Splitter"?

Creating Named Range Taking Avg To Date Of Dynamic Range

Jul 15, 2014

I have a column of data that keeps getting new information in it. what i need is a named range that i can use for a chart, first point in the named range will be the first value in the column, second point will be avg. of point 1 and 2, then 3rd point will be avg. of 1,2,3 etc.

Creating Named Range?

Aug 19, 2014

I'm trying to create 3 different named ranges which are of alternate cells in columns. Each column runs from row 3 to row 106 and each named range covers 5 columns. Therefore each named range needs to contain 260 cells (52 cells per column x 5 columns).

Apart from the fact that you can't deselect a sell by Ctrl+Right Clicking on it, making a selection of the relevant cells is proving impossible.

For example I carefully selected all 260 cells for my 1st named range and entered a name. However when I then go into Name Manager I see that loads of cells haven't been selected at all and instead some cells in some columns have been but with huge gaps between them. If I try to then add cells my Ctrl+Clicking on them I find that I can add some but then one of two things will happen. I'll either click on one cell, the same cell every time, that deselects everything and I have to start all over again or when I try to save the new range I get a message saying the formula is wrong.

I've also tried typing in the names of the cells manually but the same thing happens. Annoyingly I've manually created a formula with all the cells I need in Notepad but even though the option to Paste is there, it won't let me paste into the field!

Is there a limit to the number of cells you can have in a named range?

Is there way of editing the name range accurately?

Is there a better, easier way of selecting all the cells for a named range?

Creating Column Reference From Named Range?

Apr 22, 2014

I am attempting to obtain the last non-empty row in a column of a spreadsheet by using the following formula

=SUMPRODUCT(MAX((A:A<>"")*(ROW(A:A))))

This works fine.

However, I'd like to make it more dynamic and be able to obtain a usable column reference (i.e., the A:A portion of the formula) from a named range (single cell).

Making Named Range The Last Active Value Used Within Another Named Range?

Jul 19, 2013

I'm trying to make my named ranges remember the values of the last active cells used within another named range. The purpose of this is to make my charts dynamically change dependant on two criteria selected. My spreadsheet currently updates itself as and when I change the active cell within a single named range, dynamically changing the chart data by using Lookup based on the active cells value. However I want to get away from having several charts showing, I would like to have a single chart which dynamically changes based on a second selection. So the first selection is for a department (Facility) which changes the chart data relevant to that department, the second selection is to dynamically change the chart shown for the pre selected department.

Picture2.jpg

Using the following code when updating just one criteria with several charts

VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)

If Not Application.Intersect(ActiveCell, [MeasureType]) Is Nothing Then
[valMeasurePicked] = ActiveCell.Value [code].....

which works fine but I'm not sure how to add a second selection criteria because my code uses Activecell. I thought that the VBA needed to set the last used value of a range as a variable and therefore allow the second criteria to be selected but am not sure how to put it into practice.

Creating Named Ranges Using A Loop?

Nov 2, 2011

i am trying to write a macro to loop through a column of data, creating a named range each time it encounters a certain string. so, it inititially finds the first instance of the string, then finds the next instance, offsets one row back and then names that as the first named range. how do i get it to actually loop through the column until the end of the data?

I can get the first range named but can't figure how to get a loop into my macro to repaeat the process.

Code:
Sub x()
Dim rngTemp As Range
Dim rngFind As Range
Dim rngFirst As Range
Dim rngLast As Range
Dim nom As Range
Dim strFirstAddress As String

Combine Two Named Ranges Into 3rd Named Range

Mar 14, 2013

Merge two columns into one list in excel

I would like to combine List1 and List2 into a 3rd named range called List3. I was wondering if this were possible without using any additional cells/columns (i.e. I don't want to use Column C like in the example shown in the link above).

Here's the formula from the example:

Code:

=IFERROR(INDEX(List1,ROWS(C1:$C$1)),IFERROR(INDEX(List2,ROWS(C1:$C$1)-ROWS(List1)),""))

I've played around with it, but could not come with any that worked.

Creating Cascading Data Validation Lists / Comboboxes Without Named Ranges?

Jul 28, 2014

Is there a way to add cascading lists (from data validation or form/activex controls) to my excel spreadsheet WITHOUT using named ranges? Maybe structured references?

I need to avoid the named ranges because it will cause my workbook to have duplicate named range titles which I cannot avoid.

As a general example my issue arises because I have something like this where the titles are the same but they map to slightly different data. These also have to be cascading because the titles align to another list which I do not show in the example. I also considered using pivot tables, but the issue there is that the data validation lists repeat in the same worksheet. So I would have 3 cascading lists in row1 dependent on each other, but the same 3 lists in row2 dependent on row2 but not the previous row.

Creating Multiple Named Ranges X Rows High X Columns Wide

Mar 13, 2012

I need to create hundreds of named ranges going down a single sheet.

The name of the first range is in cell a1 and is 13 columns wide and 7 columns high (a1:m7)

The next name is in a8 and the range is a8:m14 and so fourth

If it's easier on a separate sheet I can have a list of names I want in column A and then the cells they refer to in column B.

E.g.

A B

Range1 Sheet1!A1:M7
Range2 Sheet1!A8:M14
Range3 Sheet1!A15:M21

Copy/Paste Cell To Named Range Named In Adjacent Cell

Sep 4, 2007

I have read post re this question but have not been able to answer my problem. I get the error message 'Application defined or object defined error' when running the code below. I should indicate the range counter currently indicated about 6,200 rows that this code will work on and the individual range names in the list of 6,200 rows are spread over at least 20 worksheets.

The code appears to be running but after some time it stops on the line of code 'Range(Cells(i, 1).Value) = Cells(i, 2)'.

Sub PopulateWithImportData()
Dim counter As Integer
counter = Sheets("Imported Data").Range("Counter")

Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Worksheets("imported data").Select
Range("a1").Select

i = 1
Do Until i = counter
Range(Cells(i, 1).Value) = Cells(i, 2)
i = i + 1
Loop

Find Matched Value In A Range For Named Cell Then Copy Range Cells Below

Aug 6, 2013

I need method, using a button, that looks at a cell--say EO2, for example--, looks back on a master worksheet at a specified row and range for a match, then looks at the information from a specified range below the matching cell (The information in this column will either be blank or have an "X" in the cell), and then those rows that do not have an "X" will be hidden in the corresponding rows in the working worksheet. Therefore, if at any time the value in "EO2" ever changes, then it will automatically find a new match and repopulate and hide information as before. About 130 columns will have its own button so that a "query" can be made that depends on the information in a particular cell in that column.

The master worksheet now has matrix of 287 rows and 58 columns. Each row is for an operating procedure and each column shows a job code. An "X" in a coordinate cell for a column/row shows whether that job code is responsible for knowing that operating procedure. So, on the working sheet, an employee's primary job code is given underneath his or her name. When the button is pushed, all the operating procedures not required for a given person will be hidden and only the required ones will remain visible--grouped, if you will. Qualification dates will be easier to see now that the information is consolidated. Whenever someone transfers to a new position, a new code will be inputed on the working sheet. When the button is pushed, a new grouping will result. Any operating instructions that overlap will still have qualification dates, so that information will not need to be transcribed.

VBA To Get Average Of Range Of Cells Based On Named Range In Different Column

Apr 10, 2013

I am trying to calculate some averages. What I have is 3 columns of data in A, B, C, also the "tasks" in A are in named ranges ex: "Award Contract" is a named range - "Task_Award" and "Confirm Updates" is a named range - "Task_Updates". I've attached a sample excel sheet.

I'd like to be able to create a macro to evaluate column A, and for every row in range "Task_Award", give me the average of the corresponding cells in column C and put it in the same range of cells in column B , then, for every row in "Task_Confirm" then give me the average of the same range of cells in column C and place the result in the same range of cells in column B. This is my very first post so I hope I am doing this correctly. I have 77 of these task ranges to evaluate and it will take a long time to do it manually. I'm thinking of a loop function.

Get The Range Address Of A Dynamically Named Range That Refers To A Formula In VBA

Aug 10, 2008

I have a named range that expands and contracts based upon the amount of data that is in some column. Call it AllData_UsedRange.

I have another named range that actually refers to a range. Call it AllData.

Column A
Row2 56
Row3 44
Row4 65

AllData is a named range that refers to the range A2:A65536
AllData_UsedRange refers to A2:A4 by way of this formula.
=OFFSET(AllData,0,0,COUNTA(AllData))

How to I obtain an address of AllData_UsedRange in VBA code?

These do not work...
ThisWorkbook.Names("AllData_UsedRange").RefersToRange.Address
Evaluate(ThisWorkbook.Names("AllData_UsedRange"))

Stop Graph From Changing Named Range To Formula Range

Sep 8, 2006

I am trying to create a graph for a range of data that updates monthly (adding an extra month each time). I wanted the graph source data to update automatically each time the data is refreshed so used an OFFSET formula to identify a named range. I then point the graph to the named range as the source data.

When I enter the range as the source data the graph picks it up. However, when I re-enter the source data option on the graph it has converted the named range into a cell written range (ie. replaces "=QUALITY" with "='Front page'!$B$7:$J$10" - which therefore will not update when the range increases.

Convert Dynamic Range To Static Named Range

Sep 13, 2007

My searches have not produced anything that I could apply to this situation.

I'm trying to write VBA that would:

1. Search a Workbook for Dynamic Ranges.

2. When a Dynamic Range is found the code would:

A. Determine the current coordinates for the range.
B. Change the "Refers To" value From "=OFFSET...." To "=Worksheet_Name $Column$Row:$Column$Row"

3. Save Changes.

4. Close File.

My apologies but I have very little experience in writing VBA. I understand about variables, arguments, and IF/THEN but just enough to use functions within Excel.

Creating ActiveCell Range And Checking That Range For Specific Character?

Mar 14, 2013

I have a custom email creation template I am merging with another version. The problem I am having is wrapping my head around not only selecting a range that is offset from ActiveCell (column 6-9) but seeing if there is an "x" in that range which is normally blank. My previous attempts identify the "x" but adds the text every time it is found. (Each column is a flag for an email bullet and they can have all four bullets in the email where I only want the text included ONCE if they have ANY bullets included). I use the range because I do not want the text included if none of the bullets are used.

Teh StandHTML then gets used in the body of the email like other HTML items I use

The email is generated using the ActiveCell.Offset to insert special text, emails and routing and has weathered alot of changes over time.

Dim Myrange As Range
Myrange = Range(ActiveCell.Offset(0, 6), ActiveCell.Offset(0, 9)).Select
If Myrange = "x" Then
StandHTML = StandHTML & "Important Text"
End If

Vba Hyperlink To Local Worksheet

Mar 7, 2007

I would like to, using VBA, assign a hyperlink to an excel cell that links to another worksheet within the same workbook. I've tried the forums, and combined with a previous post and MS Excel Help File, I've come up with the following attempt:

With Worksheets("Test Destination")
.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=.Cells(counter + 4, 5), Address:=strHyper2, _
TextToDisplay:=(#1/1/2007# + counter)

End With

strHyper2 is previously defined: strHyper2 = "[WeatherTester.xls]1!A1"

My spreadsheet file is "WeatherTester.xls", my worksheet is "1", and "A1" is the desired link location for the cursor. Counter is an integer. I get the error "Invalid procedure call or argument". I also tried to enter a hyperlink directly through the formula property, but Excel didn't like the single quotations I had to use within the HYPERLINK function. The hyperlink formula works in the following form: =HYPERLINK("[WeatherTester.xls]1!A1","1 Jan")

Assign Named Range To A Vba Range Variable?

I can't assign the named range to the rngSubjectFamilyRangeOnSubjectUsedSheet variable in vba.

the first two lines of code work fine, the msgbox shows "E100:E105", happy days!

However when I try to assign the same range to the rngSubjectFamilyRangeOnSubjectUsedSheet variable, the debugger runs past the 'Set' line without error, but throws 'error 91' at the second msgbox.

VB:
thisString = "SubjectNames" & strSubjectFamilyOfGroup

Named Range Returns Wrong Range

May 16, 2014

OK, I have a huge SS with lots of named ranges. Many of which are dynamically assigned lists.

All of the existing ones work fine, but when try to add a new named range, it returns the cells from a previously named range. (Always the same old one.)

example:

A range (one of many) is named "Shift_List" and is defined using
=OFFSET(info!$C$3, 0, 0, COUNTA(info!$C$3:$C$2000),1)

New range is created named "PN_List" and is defines using
=OFFSET(info!AA$3, 0, 0, COUNTA(info!AA$3:AA$2000),1)

When I create a Data Validation List or otherwise use "Shift_List" as the source it works fine.

However if I do the same thing and refer to "PN_List", it returns the items from "Shift_List"

Any new named range returns the Shift_List cells, although older ones still work correctly.
