Ctrl-A Selecting Limited Range Of Cells

Apr 8, 2009

I have a spreadsheet wherein if I press ctrl-A (normally Select All) it is only selecting a limited range of cells ($B$12:$M$22). If I press ctrl-A again from there then it selects all.

I can see something like that being useful in some cases and annoying in others, but I have no idea what is causing it. Some of the cells in that range are locked and others are not. Some of the cells outside that range are also locked while others are not. In any case, the sheet is not protected.

Macro To Paste Values Instead Of Formula When User Uses Ctrl-C And Ctrl-V (no Command Button)

Jun 10, 2013

I was thinking of how the Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) macro can be used to paste values instead of formula when the user uses Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V. Instead of assigning a macro to a command button for user to activate.

Suppose I have a worksheet where the range ("D7:D56") is where I would want the user to paste his values in it.
I have to factor in the possibility that these values have formulas attached to them, and that the user is not tech-savvy enough to know about the "paste special --> values" functionality of excel, and chooses to use the Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V method instead.

What then appears are ####### which might alarm the user.

Neither would we want the user to press a button (which we can assign the xlpastevalues macro as an alternative) as that adds an extra step for the user. There is also a chance the user might not use the button, or overlooked it.

Is it possible to use the Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) macro, or sth similar, to paste values instead of formula when user uses Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V?

Selecting Range Of Cells

Jan 31, 2009

I am trying to select a range of cells. The range I need to select starts in Cell A1. I need to select every row with data in column 1 up to the first row with no data. I then need to expand the range to all columns up the last column with data, including columns with blank cells.

The problem with my code relates to the selection of columns. It is only selecting up to column F. Column G is empty, Column H has data, Columns I-J are empty, Columns K-R have data.

Jun 12, 2014

I'm looking for a formula to do the following:

I'm building a table (see attached) where I could have a value in cells D6 to P6 that ranges from 0 upwards. In the respective cell beneath each 'value' cell (D7 to P7) I need a formula that will return a figure of 10 if the value in the cell above is 0.4 or below reducing to 0 if the value in the cell above is 1.0 or above.

When I click in some single cells (not all), that cell and several below it automatically highlight as a range... left-clicking initially highlights the cell, but as you release the mouse button, the others below it also highlight.

Copy/Paste Range(s) Without Activating/selecting Range(s)

Oct 2, 2008

To initialize some cells/ranges, I am copying a given range and pasting it to another given range using the. Copy and .PaseSpecial methods. However, it would seem that both methods actually select the range(s) for the operations, i.e. the given ranges(s) are activated/selected thus changing the focus on the spreadsheet. I would like to perform both operations without actually selecting the given ranges.

Subscript Out Of Range When Selecting Range In Closed Worksheet

Apr 28, 2006

I am receiving a 'subscript out of range' error on the lines of code below.

I would note that all variables are declared and all seem meaningful as regards what you would expect at that point.

Below is a snippet from the immediate window which indicates what the values are:
completecashname C:CashDevelopmentMyFolderoutputCASH042706.xls
cashsheetname Formatted Sheet
cashcurrcolumn A
cashfirstrow 2
cashlastrow 876

Also the workbooks are both closed at this point (but it makes no difference)

Set CashCopy = Workbooks(CompleteCashName).Sheets(CashSheetName). _
Range(CashCurrColumn & Cashfirstrow & ":K" & Cashlastrow).Value
Set PelPaste = Workbooks(completepelname).Sheets(PELSheetName). _
Range((PELCurrColumn & PELlastrow)).Value

Selecting A Range Based On Date Within That Range

Sep 26, 2007

What i'm trying to do is select a range based on the date which happens to be in the first column of the range.

For example, I have a column (A) that contains dates and column (B) that contains names.

Its easy enough to select the entire range using

Range("A1:B4").Select

I need someting that will analyse column A and conditionally selct the range based on the date in column A (ie. it will only select the rows where column A has todays date).

Selecting From One Set Range To Another

Jul 11, 2014

So in my code I have two set ranges and want to select from one set range to another. The code I have now does not work because I cannot select Range("POBRF:PO"). This is the code.

[CODE]
ARow = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Set POBRF = Range("A1:A" & ARow)
BRow = Range("I" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Set PO = Range("I1:I" & BRow)
Range("POBRF:PO").Select

Selecting A Range Using VBA

May 28, 2009

I am having trouble selecting a range in my data to copy to another worksheet. I have declared two variables (startcell and endcell), as seen below, as strings:

Cells.Find(What:=startdate, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate

startcell = ActiveCell.Address

Cells.Find(What:=enddate, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate

endcell = ActiveCell.Address

After this I would like VBA to copy all the variables in a range that is bounded by startcell and endcell. Here is what my code is currently for selecting the range:

Range("A2:" & endcell).Select

Instead of A2, I would like to select startcell, but I cannot figure out how. Currently I can get VBA to recognise endcell. For example, using the formula above I can copy the range from A2 to endcell. However, when I try and use startcell as the beginning of the range (in place of A2) the code does not work.

Selecting A Certain Range That Changes

Jan 17, 2007

I have two tables in two different worksheets. In the first table, rows get deleted if the value in column 'S' (the first row to the right of the table) is not '1', and columns get deleted if the value in row '2' (third row above the table) is not '1'. In the second table, the number of columns stays always the same but rows get deleted if the value in column 'N' (first column to the right of the table) is not '1'.

After the rows and columns are deleted the tables get pasted in a ppt presentation.
Now the problem: I am a beginner in VBA and up til now I am only able to define a certain Range, e.g. ("A5:M17"), to be copied and pasted into ppt. But since the tables will sometimes be bigger than other times depending if rows/columns are deleted, I would rather define a dynamic Range. The top left cell of both tabels to be copied is always 'A5' but the bottom right cell changes.

Selecting A Range And Then Summing That Range

Jul 19, 2006

I am trying to select a range of numbers based on an active cell. I then want to sum those numbers and have that total reported to a specific cell.

For example:

Say I have a column with a list of dates (Jan/04 thru July/06). I want the user to be able to click on any given field and have that field plus the 11 fields above it summed and reported. Any help?

I came up with something like

ActiveCell.Resize(12, 1).Select

This only selects the data from the active cell and goes down...I need the opposite. I need it to select the 11 cells above the active cell (plus the active cell) and sum that data.

Selecting Specific Value Within A Range

Nov 12, 2008

I have a spreadsheet with Employee details and each employee has a Indicator and a Score.
I'm battling to get Excel to do a lookup on the Indicator, find the applicable Score Range, see if the individual's Score falls within the range and then inserts the relevant % into a cell in a specific row of each employee.

If we did not have more than 2000 doing it manualy might have been an option. Also, the Percentages and Score Ranges in the matrix might change a couple of times....

Selecting A Range Of Numbers

Mar 4, 2010

I'm trying to obtain a formula that allows me to select the last 20 numbers in a range of numbers that continue to increase weekly. i.e column a3-a3000 increases by one number every week. I need the formula to sum the lowest 10 numbers of the last 20. If there is 30 numbers from a13-a33 week one. I require the formula to pick up the 10 lowest from the last 20 (a13-a33). Week two the cell increases by on to a34. The formula would then have to pick up the lowest 10 from the last 20 (a14-a44) and so on.

Selecting Data Over A Date Range

Sep 12, 2009

I have 2 worksheets where I need to transfer a certain amount of data from one to another depending on dates.

Sheet ‘A’, is the main data source. Col A holds all 365 dates from 1 Jan to 31 Dec(starting at A2), and the subsequent data for each day is held in cols B to P.
Sheet ‘B’ is the destination where the user will specify a key date in cell A3, then in A4 to A32, formulae populate the next 29 dates (ie so there is a continuous run of 30 days).

What I need to do, is to identify the same 30 day range from sheet B on sheet A, then to copy the data in Cols B to P for that range back onto sheet B (pasting in at D3)
