Delete All Names ..

Apr 24, 2007

I have an excel file crashing because of corrupted names.

I used the following macro:

Sub DeleteAllNames()
Dim nm As Name
On Error Resume Next
For Each nm In ThisWorkbook.Names
If nm = "Print_Titles" Then Resume Next
If nm = "Print_Areas" Then Resume Next
nm.Delete
Next nm
On Error Goto 0
End Sub

I then used the name manager to delete hidden names.

Unfortunately some of the names are corrupted...

Name Manager prompts me to change the reference style to R1C1 to rename those corrupted names... but I tried every combination to rename them, but it won't work.......

Here are examples of what I tried (as new names for corrupted names): ...

Delete All Names For Addin

Aug 1, 2007

I am trying to write a sub for an addin to delete all names in the active workbook. The code that I tried is below. I run the sub and the messageboxes appear, etc., but none of the names are deleted. I have no idea what is going wrong. I have looked at the earlier related posts and have not had any luck.

Sub namesdeleteall()
Dim intConfirm As Boolean
Dim NM As Name

intConfirm = MsgBox("Are you sure you want to delete all name?", vbOKCancel, "Delete All Names??")

If intConfirm = 1 Then

For Each NM In ActiveWorkbook.Names
NM.Delete
Next

End If

End Sub

Delete Associated Rows Not Containing Specific Names

Jun 27, 2008

I have a code that goes through and deletes everything that doesn't contain a certain word, but I have several words ( Names actually) that I need to keep in my sheet, but all others can be deleted, along with their rows...the names are on in Column B...there are about 11 names currently and probably be adding a few more next month...This is a macro that is set for work to go through like I said a lot of Rows and delete all them but those that have the names of the workers I need to keep in the sheet...the names are scattered throughout, which is the reason for a need of a macro to do it for me cause it takes me forever to manually do it each day...The code for just one person I can't get to do multiple names so this is what I came up with based off what I know plus reading hundreds of pages on the net regarding similar style needs, but none exactly the same....

This is the Code that I'm trying to use but unfortunately I get Type Mismtch Error 13 ( I think it's error 13)...what am I doing wrong? (I only am working with one sheet that contains all the data...

Sub SortOutMyTeam()
Dim wst As Worksheet, wstNew As Worksheet
Dim rData As Range, r As Range, rTotal As Range
Dim avNames() As Variant
avNames = Array("Name1", "Name2", "Name3", "Name4", "Name5")
Set wst = ActiveSheet
Set rData = Range("B1:BL" & Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row)
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
wst.AutoFilterMode = False
With rData
For i = 0 To UBound(avCrit) Step 2
. AutoFilter field:=3, Criteria1:=avNames(i), Operator:=xlOr, Criteria2:=avNames(i + 1)
On Error Resume Next
Set r = .Offset(1, 0).Resize(.Rows.Count - 1).SpecialCells

Delete All Range Names Macro Code

May 13, 2008

I have written VBA code which is operated every month. This code deletes several range names in a target spreadsheet, performs other actions - including extracting certain areas to different spreadsheets and then closes the spreadsheet without saving.

The range names in the target spreadsheet are required for ongoing use, so can not be deleted permanently.

Is there any code that deletes all range names in one go? At present my code includes the results of recording a macro wherein I delete each range name in turn - creating script over 100 lines long.

Create Dropdown That Will List All Names Starting With Initial Letter Of Names?

Jan 13, 2014

I have a long customer listing, names 5 to 36 characters and several with their location in the name as well as a few common duplicate names. I am trying to produce sheet where the customers name once selected opens in the customers spreadsheet and data can be added/amended for sales etc.The lists are not in alphabetical order as when created a customer number is automatically allocated. My aim is just to type in the first letter of the name and the dropdown appears the customer is selected and their card appears. I have tried data validation, lookup, vlookup, Dropdown and Match/find. they only return the first record found and no sign of any others. Find returned all instances of the letter appearing in every name.

Table Names Revert To Cell Names When File Is Reopened

Jan 4, 2013

I have a worksheet with many tables that I use in formulas.

I like tables for a couple reasons, one being the ability to insert/delete rows without affecting the rest of that worksheet row.

Also, automatic copy of formulas/formatting is great.

But, what I really like about tables is the ability to use the naming conventions in formulas.

Problem is when I save this worksheet, after I close it and open it back up, all table references in my formulas have been converted to cell references.

Example:

Code:

=IF((SUMIF('Quote 1'!$M$28:$M$43,">"&'Quote 1'!$J$57:$J$60)*'Quote 1'!$G$57:$G$60)+(COUNTIF('Quote 1'!$M$28:$M$43,""&'Quote 1'!$J$57:$J$60)*'Quote 1'!$G$57:$G$60)+(COUNTIF('Quote 1'!$M$28:$M$43,""&tblOSSRV[Min Order Cost])*tblOSSRV[Cost / Part])+(COUNTIF(tblFam[[#Data],[Qty by Factor2]],""&tblOSSRV[Min Parts Per Line])*tblOSSRV[Cost / Part])+(COUNTIF(tblFam[[#Data],[Qty by Factor2]],"

Create Array Of File Names/sheet Names

May 1, 2008

Two part question:

1) I'm relatively new to arrays, but what I need to do is generate a list of file names and the sheets within each one. I would like to use an array for this, but since I don't have much experience.... well....that's why I'm here. Can someone point me in the right direction?

2) And the second part of this.... I was planning on using the FileSystemObject to determine the files in a selected folder and loop through that list of files, opening each one and harvesting the required info (file name and all sheet names). Should I use the FSO or is there something built into Excel that might be better (and also limit the number of dependencies for this little "project" of mine).

Looking Names In A List With Names Written Differently And With Duplicates

Aug 26, 2008

I am using Excel 2003 and Windows XP.

I have been given a list of my firm’s target clients (in excel) and an opportunities report (exported into excel) from our CRM system, which lists all the opportunities (i.e. opportunities to sell/provide products/services) that have been created for each client. Some of the column headings in the opportunities report are as follows:

Client; Opportunity ID; Opportunity Name; Opportunity Description; Created by; Date Created etc.

What I need to do is lookup each client, from the target clients listing, in the opportunities report to see whether an opportunity has been created; and if so, return the row of values (i.e. the Opportunity ID; Opportunity Name; Opportunity Description; Created by; Date Created) for that client. The result will be placed next to the name of the client in the target client worksheet.

I have a couple of problems. Initially I tried to use the VLOOKUP function to lookup the client name in the opportunities report and return the Opportunity ID (I then planned to use the same formula to return values from the other columns); however, as the client names in the target client listing were not always written the same way as they were in the opportunities report, the formula often returned #N/A. The formula I used was

=VLOOKUP(A8,'Opportunities Report'!A2:F51,2,FALSE)

So for example, the first client that I was looking up was written as “ABC Ltd” but in the opportunities report it was written as “ABC Limited”.

My second problem was that for some clients, there were multiple opportunities listed in the opportunities report. Where this was the case, there was a separate row (repeating the client name in the first column) for each opportunity created. I think that was messing up my VLOOKUP formula as well.

Is there a way to look up the client name, from the target client listing, in the opportunities report even if it’s slightly different and return the row of values for each opportunity created for that client on a separate row?

Reorder List Of Names With Capitalized Last Names

Feb 24, 2014

I'm trying to sort out a list of names from a website that publishes names in the following format:

DOE John
VAN GOGH Vincent
DA VINCI Leonardo
NADAL PARERA Rafael
JIMENEZ RODRIGUEZ Miguel Angel

What I'd like to do is get the names in the following format

John Doe
Vincent Van Gogh
Leonardo Da Vinci
Rafael Nadal Parera
Miguel Angel Jimenez Rodriguez

Basically all the last names - which are all capitalized - would be moved to the end of the text string. Of course any leading spaces should be removed and I guess using the Proper() function, all capitalized words could be capitalized in a standard way.

I found the following function, here: [URL] ...

but what it does is just take the capitalized words and separate them into a separate cell, which is not all of what I want.
