Jul 14, 2008Column A will be completely empty.
When an * is inserted into a single cell in column A, that Row number will become the variable in this equation:
=Sheet1!$G$'variable'
i.e. if i put a * in A14, then the formula should read (=Sheet1!$G$14).
Creating A Variable Macro
May 24, 2007I currently have the below macro:
If Cells(1, 3) = 2 Then
For a = 1 To 336
b = Round(a * 2 + 0.99)
Cells(b + 0, 3) = a
Cells(b + 1, 3) = a
Next a
MsgBox " Cell C1 is not equal to 2"
End If
where the intent is that whatever cell A1 is equal to, that is how many times over it will duplicate a number in consecutive cells before moving to the next number, ie:
1
1
2
2
3
3
etc to 336.
How can I tweak the code so that if I change the data in cell A1 to 9, I don't have to go in and change the macro?
Creating External Reference With Variable?
Feb 27, 2014I'm wondering if there's any way to put a variable for a cell address in an external reference formula. Basically, I'm creating an abridged report of customer data that takes a single customer's info from 2 other workbooks on a networked drive and compiles the chosen cell data into one worksheet summary of their info. The base external reference formula looks like this:
='F:Projects[CustomerDB.xls]Sheet1'!VariableCellGoesHere
I want to know if there's a way I can make the formula use a variable cell address that I can just type into another cell to tell it which row I need to grab info from. Generally, all of the customer data I need is spanned across multiple columns in one single row. The formula above appears multiple times in the sheet I'm trying to make. The first is for "Name", the next is for "Address", next is "Phone Number", etc. So for instance, if I want customer data from the main spreadsheet and that customer's info is on row 355, my first few formulas are:
='F:Projects[ProjectDB.xls]Sheet1'!$A$355
='F:Projects[ProjectDB.xls]Sheet1'!$B$355
='F:Projects[ProjectDB.xls]Sheet1'!$C$355
Is there a way I can maybe have a designated cell where I just enter the row number I need (e.g. 481) so the formula sees that number and plugs it into the cell reference above resulting in the formulas adjusting themselves to ='F:Projects[ProjectDB.xls]Sheet1'!$A$481?

Creating String Using Variable File Name?
Dec 18, 2012I'm trying to check to see if a file exists using VBA but the routines I see use a string that has the path and then the file name.

Apr 10, 2013I am working on a research project of which details cannot be disclosed. I basically have many worksheets which each contain 3D positional data and I am plotting overlaid graphs using multiple worksheets. I have gotten them to work where I manually enter the names of the worksheets, but I am trying to use the CELL("filename") command to get the current worksheet's name, then using a substitute command to change certain fields, then I would like to use the string name created by those functions to call a global variable in another worksheet which defines a range. I will try to give an example.
Say I have 3 worksheets for arbitrary measurements:
1) filename 1mm
2) filename 2mm
3) filename 3mm
I would like to graph all 3 sets of data in worksheet "filename 1mm", using the fact that everything in the filenames are the same except for the 1/2/3mm part. I have a template of which I will be copy/pasting data from numerous data sets and then each worksheet has defined names "X_vals" and "Y_vals" which give me dynamic ranges for the data I wish to plot from that worksheet.
When I type the names manually--i.e. " 'filename 2mm'!X_vals" everything works fine, but when I try to create the exact same string dynamically using indirect/substitute/left/right etc, it does not let me do it. I am able to create a dynamic string with a range, such as " 'filename 2mm'!C10:C100" but then when I change it to " 'filename 2mm!X_vals" it just gives me #REF!.
I guess my question is just is there any way to use the indirect function to create a string name dynamically which references a defined name in another worksheet? If not possible with just simple excel functions, is there a way to do this with a macro? I am not exactly familiar with VBA in excel, though I know how to run macros.

Creating Autofilter That Returns Records Based On Date Variable
Mar 13, 2013I have a strange problem I cannot solve in that I'm trying to create an auto filter that returns records based on a date variable.
If I set the code to equal the date variable, it returns information. If I set the code to return records AFTER the date, it returns nothing.
Code to return records on the date:
Dim startdate As Date
startdate = Format((Now), "dd/mm/yyyy")
ActiveSheet.Range("A:B").AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:="=" & startdate
This returns data, however if I slightly amend it to get records on or after the date:
Code:
Dim startdate As Date
startdate = Format((Now), "dd/mm/yyyy")
ActiveSheet.Range("A:B").AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:=">=" & startdate
It returns nothing. Is there a syntax problem in my code.
String Variable To Call Defined Range Variable

View 1 Replies View RelatedCreating ActiveCell Range And Checking That Range For Specific Character?
Mar 14, 2013I 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

Autofill In Macro Range Is Constant How Can I Code To Be A Variable Range?
Feb 19, 2010I am trying to write a macro which will autofill specific columns. The macro will set the range from the start of my autofill to the end of my autofill as a constant range.
The problem I need to get around is the end of my range can always change each time I run the macro. For instance, the first time I run the macro I may only need to autofill from row 4 to row 15. The next time, I may only need to autofill from row 4 to 23 (because of user updates). How can I make the end of my range not be a constant address but variable?

Assign Named Range To A Vba Range Variable?
Jan 25, 2013I have a named range, called SubjectNamesPastoral on a worksheet called Worksheets("Group to Teacher")
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

Method ‘ range’ of object ‘_worksheet’ failed
The code is then highlighted in yellow, the code is:

Meaning this part is incorrect but I don’t know why? To work it: go to Databaseform and press start. Enter 7mm in the product field and press find all.

Creating Named Range?
Aug 19, 2014I'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?

What Are The Limits When Creating A Range With VBA
Dec 27, 2009I have a text string concatenated from an array of about 3,500 elements. The concatenation looks something like the following:
sRange = "$A$3,$A$7,$A$8,$A$13, ..."
When I try to set a range with the said string: MyRange = Range(sRange), the system throws an error.
I've seen a few methods in help ("Union" for one) that accept up to 30 arguments. I'm unable to find anything in help that states a limit for MyRange = Range(). It appears that 30 may be the magic number for everything.
I have tried using "Union" and building the range one element at a time from the array. That works, but it's incredibly slow.
Is there any way I can pass my array as the argument directly? Something like: MyRange = Range (MyArray).

Creating Date Range From Two Dates
Mar 20, 2012I have a start date, and an end date for a promotion. However, I am trying to create some unique keys for a VLOOKUP, so I can combine the data I have by day, with the data I have for promotional start/end dates.
So, simple question, if I have a start date and an end date, is there was way (either using excel or vba) to pull out all the dates within that range and display them on a spreadsheet?
For example, I have 21/01/2012 and 28/01/2012 as the start and end dates. I would want to display 21/01/2012, 22/01/2012, 23/01/2012 etc.
