Delete Range/Cell Names

May 25, 2008

As I have been working I have highlighted cells and typed different names in the Name Box thus creating different lists. How do I delete the lists after they have been created?

Delete Range Names That Refer To Sheet

Dec 19, 2006

I am looking for a way to delete all the range names in a worksheet, not the whole workbook. I have found several procedures that will delete all the names in an activeworkbook. For some reason it takes too long to run. Does anyone know how to handle a single sheet in VBA?

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.

Delete Range Names Containing Specific Word

Jun 6, 2008

the active sheet contains a number of defined named ranges. i would like to delete range names beginning with "Sales", yet the number of defined ranges changed from sheet to sheet = for example, Sheet1 may have 3 defined ranges (Sales1, Sales2, Sales 3), Sheet 2 may have 1 (Sales 1). Is it possible to included a wildcard search in the following code?

Sub DeleteRangeNames()
Dim RangeName As Name
For Each RangeName In Names
ActiveSheet.Names(RangeName.Name).Delete
Next RangeName
End Sub

Multiple Range Names For The Same Cell

Apr 6, 2007

I understand how to return the address of a particular named range (that I already know the name of). For instance, the following works just fine for me:

MsgBox Range("BreedTestRangeName1").Address

In my current workbook, this returns a messagebox that reads: $C$13. However, cell C13 also has other range-names. Indeed, in my current program, it might have five or six more range names assigned to it. But I do not know how to return these names (if they exist), using only code. That is, I do not know how I can return those names, strictly within VBA. I have tried this

MsgBox Range("C13").Name.Name

But, of course, this only lists one range name; and it looks like it only lists the first one that was assigned to that cell. How can I return the others? If I can return them, I would prefer to avoid printing them anywhere onto a spreadsheet.

Cell Range References (Labels / Names)

Aug 6, 2013

I inherited a Profit & Loss (P&L) template from a colleague. She developed it on Excel 2013 and I'm on Excel 2010, but it's not clear that is the issue here (tho, never say never).

The spreadsheet was set up for quarters and I've expanded it (by copy and paste) to 12 months. It has the typical tables: sales revenues, cost of goods, admin exp, etc. Each table has a number (varies from table to table) of rows with a subtotal in the bottom row of each table. There is also a label row above all the tables (this now has the month labels).

The problem: The subtotal (bottom) row of a table uses the formula "=SUBTOTAL (109, ref1)". In the original spreadsheet, ref1= "QTR1" (or QTR2, QTR3, etc.). I'd like to change that to be MONTH1, MONTH2.... However, when I enter MONTH1 or MONTH2, etc. for ref1, I get a formula error. Which I suspect is expected.

What I noticed is that if I highlight ref1 in the subtotal cell formula and then select the cells I want included in the subtotal, the first selected cell shows a "B8". With 2 cells, it shows "B8:B9". Good so far. However, when I get to the last cell before the subtotal row, ref1 changes to "[QTR1]", so the final subtotal formula shows "=SUBTOTAL (109, [QTR1])".

I've tried to change QTR1 to MONTH1, but get an error. I used Name Manager, but QTR1 doesn't show up on the list (However, the tables are named and seem to reference the columns correctly). If I do a "Define Name", the window pops up w/the name entry empty and the "Refers To" containing "=tblName[QTR1]" (tblName is the name given to the specific table (revenue, cost of goods, etc.) and does show up under Name Manager).

I tried an experiment and in the revenue table I deleted (move left) the cells (up to but not including the subtotal cell) under MONTH1, and then inserted (move right) a new set of cells. Now the "Refers To" shows "=tblSalesRevenue[Column7]".

So, apparently, Excel can assign some kind of label to a set of cells. My question is, how do I (if I can) change that label, or name, so that the column of cells I want to use for my subtotal formula will work (MONTH1, MONTH2, etc.). It's not clear that Define Name or Name Manager is what I should use. I looked at the original spreadsheet and there are no Name Manager listings for QTR1, QTR2, etc.

Additional Note: I forgot to mention that this isn't a show stopper, just a nuisance. If I use normal cell references (i.e. B8:B11, etc.) the spreadsheet works fine and as expected. This is just one of those "nits" that I'd like to understand so that I can make the spreadsheet programming more "readable".

Cell/Range Names Based On Row & Column Intersection

Jun 15, 2008

i have a table in excel with 36 rows and 36 columns i.e. 36x36=1296 individual cells. Columns and rows have headers/labels i.e. 36 rows with row label headings and similarly 36 columns with column label headings. I would like to automatically create unique cell names for the 1296 cells based on where the columns and rows intersect using the row and column labels. The cell name format I would like to create is [ColumnLabel_RowLabel].

I've manually created the cell names in the attached file as an example of what i would am seeking (i've greyed the cells that I've done this for).

Assigning Label Names Based On A Range Of Cell Values

Feb 20, 2007

I searched and found that to assign a name to a label based on a cell value requires the following

Label1.Caption = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value

which would assign the value in cell A1 as the caption for Label1. I've got a range of values in cells:

C4:N4

and I'd like to assign them as names to labels 1 through 12. How would I do that using VBA?

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): ...

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]],"

VBA - Delete Column If Cell Value Of Range Is Equal To Another Cell

Nov 5, 2013

I would like to create a VBA code where it will delete the entire column if the cell value is equal to value in D2

For example:

Sub Delete_Columns()
Dim rng As Range, cell As Range, del As Range
Set rng = Intersect(Range("G2:S43"), ActiveSheet.UsedRange)

For Each cell In rng
If (cell.Value) = D2 _
Then
If del Is Nothing Then
Set del = cell
Else: Set del = Union(del, cell)
End If
End If
Next cell
On Error Resume Next
del.EntireColumn.Delete
End Sub

======

But I think this line is wrong but I am not sure how to fix it - If (cell.Value) = D2 _

Delete Range Of Cells If Cell Contains Given Value

Feb 15, 2014

I have the below given macro which does quite well at deleting the cell for a given value (Value = "_y-600_z-.jpg") in a given range. What I need for it to do is delete the cell contents if '_y-600_z-.jpg' is anywhere in the string. As an example, if the cell contains 'Handler_x-111251_y-600_z-.jpg' it will delete the cell contents.

Delete A Range Based On Cell Value?

Jun 22, 2012

I would like to search my worksheet and whenever it finds the word "Description" in column "B" then it should select the range "B:E" for that row and delete the cells directly above it.

This is what I tried but nothing happens:

lr = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
For Z = lr To 1 Step -1
If ("B:" & Z) = "Description" Then GoTo deleteit
GoTo xt
deleteit:
z1 = Z - 1
Range("B:" & z1, "E:" & z1).Delete
xt:
Next

VBA To Delete 4 Row Range Based On One Cell Value

Oct 21, 2013

I have a spreadsheet broken out into about 30 4-row ranges, for example (A10:L13). All of the ranges use a using a vlookup argument:

=IFERROR(VLOOKUP($A10,Fund_Range,2,FALSE),"") in the second row.

Around 15 of the ranges will be populated based on varying data in the fund_range data table, the remainder will be blank. The first row of each range is a header row, I would like the macro to delete the range when there is no value in the second row (the blank ranges). Every attempt I have made starting with other code from the forum has come up empty. I think part of my problem is the vlookup formula existing in these otherwise "blank" rows.

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
