Deleting Rows Below Current Cell Without Using Absolute Row Titles
Mar 21, 2012
What would be a line of code that could delete rows below a current cell without using absolute row titles? For instance, I pick a random cell and I want it to delete the three below regardless of what cell I pick.
How do I delete rows, with the maturity date exceeding the current date ("A10"). Note here that every time I open the excel sheet, the current date ("A10") would change, so I intend to write a VBA file to ensure that new rows are deleted when the dates expire.
I have a spreadsheet that gets updated from the top. Is there any way for me to mod my formulae so that they always begin with the topmost cell (row 2 in this case, and in many columns) but still extend downward?
More practical example:
I have an Average formula in column X which (at the moment) averages X2:X75. I would like, even when adding new rows at the top (in the row 2 position) the forumla to not need to be manually extended with every new entry. So, if I add three more entrie4s, it will then average X2:X78. I tried all manner of absolutes.
I have a problem where my conditional formatting is broken when new rows are inserted because Excel is auto updating the cell references. I am not able to use absolute references because I need to be able to Copy the entire information many times on one sheet to handle an ever changing number of projects.
I have attached an example file which shows a simple version of the sheet. There are areas for two projects now, but more would be added to the sheet as needed by just copying the entire section of one project and pasting it at the bottom. For each project, there is a cell which has a data validation list, e.g. B6, from which the user can select the current stage. The list of stages is obtained from column A, e.g. A9:A18. Whatever stage is selected, I need it to be highlighted in some manner. I currently have conditional formatting that checks if the value in B6 matches the information in the current cell and will change the text font color if True.
The problem occurs when new rows are inserted into the project. For example: if the project requires a Beta 1.1 stage, then a row would need to be inserted and labeled for that stage. However, Excel auto changes the cell references so that it no longer looks at B6. I need some way that the current stage can still be highlighted when selected in the Data Validation list.
I know that what I am needing to do may not be the best method to go about this, but I am having to work within the confines of the software available to me and the intended users of the file. Since the number and length of projects can change on a daily basis, the users need to be able to add and remove room for additional stages and projects whenever they want. I have a basic solution available to me using a macro, but the overall solution is clumsy and just leads to more problems.
I have a table which contains a list of branches eg;
01 02 04 06
I then have a spreadsheet which contains a number of columns and rows.
I want to create a new spreadsheet in the first column it will contain the branch from the table above then the rows and columns in the above spreadsheet
The rows and columns would then repeat for each of the other branches in the table. IE if I have 4 branches in my table and 100 rows in my spreadsheet my new spreadsheet would contain 400 rows
I have a spreadsheet that has a list in column A 219 rows long. what i want to do is, if possible is move them so that they run accross the top of the spreadsheet as column headings.
Exampl: As is: A B C D E F G 1 ? 2 ? 3 ? 4 ? 5 ? 6 ?
I have a set of data which in one column, includes 500 countries, each followed by a list of 43 entries. I want to transpose the data into rows, so that the countries are all in one column, and the 43 entries are in rows as well..
I would like to delete rows in a worksheet based on a value of a cell within that row. The worksheet will not always have the same number of rows. I will be looking at the value of each cell in column "AD", which is a date, and if it is not equal to 00/00/0000 then I want to delete that row.
I wish to remove the page headers that were imported along with the raw data. Here's the code I've been using.
Column_To_Check = 3 Start_Row = 1 End_Row = ActiveSheet. Cells(Start_Row, Column_To_Check).CurrentRegion.Rows.Count MsgBox End_Row Search_String = "." For Row_Counter = Start_Row To End_Row If ActiveSheet.Cells(Row_Counter, Column_To_Check).Value <> Search_String Then ActiveSheet.Rows(Row_Counter).Delete Row_Counter = Row_Counter - 1 End If Next Row_Counter End Sub
When I import the data from the text file, there are 3 dimensions separated by a period in the same field. I.E: ABC.DEF.GHI and I use the break points to seperate as such: ABC|.|DEF|.|GHI|. Therefore, all rows that contain data also contain a period in cell C, but headers don't.
I have a sheet with 45,000 rows. Let's say each row has 4 columns: Create_timestamp, Update_timestamp, email_address, and o_flag
Many rows have duplicate email addresses. I would like to remove all the duplicate rows, EXCEPT for the row with the most recent Update_timestamp.
And actually, if I could just "hide" all those rows, that would be even better, but I'd be happy just figuring out how to delete all the "old" rows, so I just have a list of unique email addresses, with their create/update timestamps and o_flag column. Seems like this is such a basic use case for "Remove Duplicates,",.
I'm trying to get a VBA macro put together that would delete all the rows, throughout every sheet, and shift up wherever the cell in column A = "Delete Row" in a workbook I've made. In the below copy of the workbook you can see that a lot of the information from all the tables is linked to the topmost table on the 'Mix Detail Sheet'.
If the the Cell in column A is blank on that first table, its corresponding cells in tables throughout the workbook displays the words "Delete Row". I need the macro to delete the rows and shift everything up where this occurs.
Ideally I'd also like the macro to then delete the rows in that first table where the column A cells are blank.
I can insert lines fine, but the problem is that now I want the worksheet to be able to delete rows without inputting time stamps. It can insert them with no problems. I have attached the file on as well.
I'm trying to delete a range of rows based on the value of a given cell. For example, if cell AC1 shows 5000, then I'd like to delete (not just clear) the range A5000:AA1048576. Or, if cell AC1 shows 10000, then I'd like to delete range A10000:AA1048576. I've come up with what is below but I don't think this is the right way to do it. I am using Excel 2010.
To simplify matters each day is exactly 10 rows (including header).
I already have code in column D that populates each D row IF it is the first unique occurance of column B for each day. The forumla in column E for rows 2-10 put a daily total by each unique occurance.
The problem: Since I am using absolute references in E2-E10 to contain the totals for that day if I copy E-2 -> E10 to E12-E20 the totals will be incorrect.
If I use relative references in the formula it changes the range for the day which is also produces incorrect totals.
Question:
How would I copy the formulas in column E to the addtional days so that the ranges follow for the specific 10 row day that they are intended?
I have a company with upto 5 products, and I have created a dropdown box where you select your product.
When I select product 1 i would need info on product 1 , when i select product 2 I need info on product 1 and 2 and continue. so for product 5 -i need info on product 1-5.
I tried to add all info on excel and tried to delete it one by one by deleting rows in excel for products but it does not work.
I have inherited a spreadsheet with over 800 rows (and daily expanding) and 14 columns of data. I've attached a sheet that looks similar, with only 200 rows for reference. Here are my questions:
1. How can I delete all rows that contain no values? 2. I want to fill an entire row of data yellow if the values in the final two cells (L&M) in the row are equal, and red if they aren't. How can I do that? 3. Column A contains only dates, from oldest to newest. I'd like an obvious visual clue for when the months change. Currently it's a long, merged, blue-filled cell that says "March 2011", for instance. It can't be color because all cells need to be filled based on certain criteria (see #2), and borders aren't obvious enough. 4. I want to click on the row number on the very right, but have it select only columns A-M, is that possible?
I'm also having trouble with autofill. It seems to only work on parts of the spreadsheet. I don't know what settings may have been changed, but I do have autocomplete turned on, and no clue what to do despite hours of googling.
build a spreadsheet that reads information off of a Master sheet onto 4 other sheets. The hope is that by making changes ONLY to the Master sheet that the other 4 will update automatically.
And then we ran into the trouble of not being able to insert new lines onto the Master sheet without throwing everything off on the other sheets.
(I've attached an example.)
For instance, if I go to the Master sheet in the Test.xlsx attachment, I've left out Lima from the alphabet. So, I insert a new row onto the Master, switch back to the Formula sheet where it should (theoretically) just update the cells to display the new data.
Not so. The Formula sheet just skips the new A13 and keeps on going.
the primary one seems to be using Offset. Well, the coworker will be adding and deleting many, many rows over the course of the year, as it is a product log and we change our products often.
I work with several graphs in three Worksheets in a Spreadsheet. I want to use text value 'Home Run', say, from Worksheet#1 CELL $A$5 into my Excel Graph Title; text value 'Score' as Y-Axis titile; text value 'Player Name' for X-Axis title.
Can it be done with Macro or VBS?
Attributes of Title are:
Font 14, BOLD Times Roman Automatic Resizing to sencond line if Title is long (but, less than 127 characters).
I have a simple count formula which is suppose to be absolute. =COUNT($L5:$V5) and works till I add a column via a macro. Macro adds a new column at column M then inserts data. My problem is when I check the formula after macro it changes to =COUNT($M5:$W5) I thought using the $ sign means Don't change?
I have a macro which is copying data from several worksheets into one consolidation worksheet. When determining where to paste the data into the consolidation sheet, the macro includes some logic to find the last row that has data in it (using e.Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row, where "e" is a variable holding the name of the consolidation worksheet).
Once all the data is on the consolidation worksheet, I have a second worksheet with formulas that link to the consolidation sheet. The issue I have is that the first step of my consolidation macro deletes all data on the consolidation sheet to ensure that no data is double-counted). I am deleting the data with logic that simply deletes all rows from 3 to 65536. Once these rows are deleted, Excel returns a #REF! error on my second worksheet which is linking back to this data.
Rather than deleting the rows on the consolidation sheet, I have tried using the Clear and/or ClearContents commands instead. This works (i.e., my formulas no longer error out), but results in the consolidation macro running very slowly (~15 minutes, compared to
The first code hides everything just fine based on the date in A1. When I change it to the second code to delete instead of hide it is leaving a bunch of rows that the 1st code hides. Both codes have the same search criteria.
Code: For Each cell In Range("B8:B5000") If cell.Value Range("A1").Value Then cell.EntireRow.Hidden = True Next cell
Code: For Each cell In Range("B8:B5000") If cell.Value Range("A1").Value Then cell.EntireRow.Delete Next cell
I have the following codes to delete all blank rows in column A
Dim lastrow As Long lastrow = Sheet1.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row MsgBox lastrow
With Sheet1 For t = 1 To lastrow If Cells(t, 1) = "" Then Rows(t).Delete End If Next t End With
End Sub
Although it is working , it is not deleting all the blank rows at once, I have to keep pressing on the macro button running the macro several times, until all blank rows are completely deleted.
I got a code to delete all rows in the sheet which contain the word "DETAILS" but I now want to delete all the rows that do not contain the word "DETAILS"
My code if needed is:
Sub Find_details() Dim rng As Range Dim what As String what = "DETAILS" Do Set rng = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Find(what) If rng Is Nothing Then Exit Do Else Rows(rng.Row).Delete End If Loop End Sub
