I used to dabble in QBasic and VBA programming in my youth, but I haven't done any programming in so many years, most of my prior knowledge is gone. What this means is that I'm picking things up reasonably quickly, but I don't really know what I'm doing at all. Anyway, I'm trying to setup a script that uses Find to search for a particular phrase, deletes the entire row if it finds that phrase and repeats the process until it has deleted every single row that contains that phrase.
I am using Range. Find() and Range.FindNext() Method. As per my knowledge FindNext() advances in the text and searches for same string found using Find(). I have used Find() for two different searches in Sheet. (Eg. Find() text "Risk" and Find text "ACL", Now when I use FindNext() for the second time (to search "ACL" text), next time when I use FindNext() to search first text ("Risk" it searches prev text - "ACL"). I have used them in a loop. Below is the code i have used.
Set SrcCell = SourceBook.Worksheets(1).Columns("A").Find("Risk", After:=Sheets("SubArea").Range("A21"), LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole) 'Set srcCell = SourceBook.Worksheets(1).Columns("A").FindNext Set firstSrcCell = SrcCell Do While Not (SrcCell Is Nothing) tgtCell.Offset(tgtRow, 0) = SrcCell.Offset(-1, 255) tgtCell.Offset(tgtRow, 1) = subAreaId tgtCell.Offset(tgtRow, 2) = SrcCell.Offset(0, 1) tgtCell.Offset(tgtRow, 3) = SrcCell.Offset(1, 1) tgtCell.Offset(tgtRow, 5) = SrcCell.Offset(3, 1) tgtCell.Offset(tgtRow, 6) = SrcCell.Offset(2, 1) RiskId = SrcCell.Offset(-1, 255) 'tgtCell.Offset(tgtRow, 0) = SrcCell.Offset(0, 255)...............
is it just me and my copy of Excel 2003 or does the following code taken directly out out Microsoft Visual Basic Help result in a run-time error, with the last "Loop While Not" line of code highlighted as the problem?
I was trying to get a multiple find working on my userform, and was always getting the error, so thought I'd try the code in it's most basic form, and I'm still getting the error?
With Worksheets(1).Range("a1:a500") Set c = .find(2, LookIn:=xlValues) If Not c Is Nothing Then firstAddress = c.Address Do c.Value = 5 Set c = .FindNext(c) Loop While Not c Is Nothing And c.Address firstAddress End If End With
I'm sure I must be just doing something stupid!
This code goes through the range A1:A500 and replaces any cells that contain the value 2 with the value 5.
1) search column A for a string 2) as that string is found, move the entire contents of that cell to the same row, column F 3) insert a blank row above the row where the text was found 4) continue to search and perform the same steps
I was able to come up with the code to find a single instance and perform the necessary steps, but I've tried 'til I'm blue in the face to incorporate the FindNext object to parse through the entire worksheet. I thought I was on the right track with the attached code (which could be completely wrong), but it returns my MsgBox "Value Could Not Be Found."
I'm trying to use the .Find and .FindNext functions to find how many cells in Worksheet("WAS") have the same value as the ActiveCell (B3 in this case) on the Worksheet("DDS"). Basically i'm just trying to figure out how many times this sub goes through the Do While loop. However, "tick" keeps coming back as a value of 1. I know there's something I must be doing wrong or something i'm not allowed to do but i'm still pretty new at this.
I keep getting that error when I'm running my macro. When I debug, it points me to the bolded line in the code below. The larger macro I'm running this function in runs this function some 101 times without error before this happens.
The values of the parameters are as follows when it gives me the error: Find_Exact("hchen", ws1, "B:B"). The first parameter is the only one that changes in the previously mentioned running of this function.
I am facing problems with finding next instance of text using FindNext method. Kindly find code belowe which i have used.
Set srcCell = SourceBook.Worksheets(1).Columns("A").Find("Risk", After:= Sheets("SubArea"). Range("A21"), LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole) 'Set srcCell = SourceBook.Worksheets(1).Columns("A").FindNext Set firstsrccell = srcCell Do While Not (srcCell Is Nothing) tgtCell.Offset(tgtRow, 0) = srcCell.Offset(-1, 255) tgtCell.Offset(tgtRow, 1) = subAreaId tgtCell.Offset(tgtRow, 2) = srcCell.Offset(0, 1) tgtCell.Offset(tgtRow, 3) = srcCell.Offset(1, 1) tgtCell.Offset(tgtRow, 5) = srcCell.Offset(3, 1) tgtCell.Offset(tgtRow, 6) = srcCell.Offset(2, 1)
Set srcCell2 = SourceBook.Worksheets(1).Columns("A").FindNext ' If firstsrccell.Address = srcCell.Address Then ' Exit Do ' End If tgtRow = tgtRow + 1 Loop
I checked above code by putting breakpoint, but code is unable to find next instance where it matches the required string (FindNext reamains at the same position).
I'm trying to get the Find and FindNext methods to work. Column C contains serial numbers and there's a chance that a serial number might appear more than once in the column. What I'm trying to do is get Excel to find the first occurance of the serial number, find what row it's on and then see if this matches the variable 'CurRowNo' (defined earlier in the code). If it doesn't I want it to look at the other occurances of the serial number, find what row they're on and see again if it matches CurRowNo.
The variable 'EngCount is the number of occurances of the serial number (also worked out earlier in the code). I've got the code below, but I get the error 'Method Range of Object Global Failed' on the FindNext line. I have no idea what this error means or why it's happening.
With Sheets("regrade pharm_standalone") For Each r In .Range("standaloneTerritory") If r.Value = "X101" Then r.EntireRow.Copy Sheets("X101").Range("A1").End(xlDown).Offset(1).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues End If Next r End With ------------------- I need to repeat this loop for values from X101 to X151. In all cases, the sheet name is equal to the value I'm looking up (eg: value = X102 goes to sheet X102).
I have a named range called 'territories' that contains the list of X101 -> X152.
I'm hoping to make the code perform the loop for each of the territories without my having to copy & paste and change the 'X101' 51 times as this would seem a rather silly thing to do!
Macro which loops through a number of files and calls the same macro in each of them. Unfortunately when I add "Application.Run..." to the code, it no longer loops through the process and instead stops after updating the first file in the loop. If I remove the "Application.Run..." code and add any other code, the loop works fine and it continues through the process repeating all the steps for each file found.
Why it stops after one file when using "Application.Run..." to call the macros?
NB I have a list of path and file names starting in row 8 of columns A and C. Each file in the list has a macro called UpdateS1 and promoupdate1.
Sub C_Run_Loop_Macro() Dim lastRow As Long Dim i As Long
I have working code that returns a row number within a for loop based on parameters I set.
Each time the for loop runs I would like to store this row number, then after the loop has finished, delete all stored rows.
Code: for rowNum = 1 to x (some variable end row number which I already have worked out using End(xlUp).Row) if x = y then *storedRow = rowNum end if next rowNum *
Lines with a * are the bits I can't work out. I've been trying to understand arrays by reading posts on what other people have done, but I can't fit (or fully understand) the reDims, or reDim preserves into my code. I've seen what appear to be quite complex ways involving uBounds and LBounds, but unfortunately I can't see how to use them.
All I want is to simply keep adding a row numbers to a variable, (i.e. row 2, 5, 20, 33, 120, etc) and then delete those specific rows.
I am looping through each cell in a range and I would like to loop in reverse order.
Dim CELL As range Dim TotalRows As Long TotalRows = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row For Each CELL In Range("C1", "C" & TotalRows) CELL.Select 'Code here to delete a row based on criteria Next
I have tried:
For Each CELL In Range("C" & TotalRows, "C1")
and it does not make a difference. I need to loop in reverse order since what I am doing in the loop is deleting a row. I am looking at a cell and determining its value. If the value is so much, then the row gets deleted. The problem is that the next row "moves up" one row (taking the pervious cell's address) and therefore the For Each Next loop thinks it has already looked at that row.
I have some numbers in a column that I need to copy 12 times (each one) into another column. The problem is that I got like 200 records that will be converted in 15000 aprox. I've uploaded an example of what I need,
I have a workbook that contains, say, 50 worksheets: the first two worksheets summarise the data and are static in that they don't move position. However, the next four worksheets contain certain data for any given month. Each time a new month comes along, say, November, I insert four new worksheets after the two static ones as a result October's four worksheets are simply moved down the line in terms of worksheet order.
I need a macro to refer to the first six worksheets only (not the other tabs). I opted for index referencing for each worksheet, ie one - six. Now within these six worksheets in any given month, I need to sort the data by a certain column. The problem: in sheets 1,4,5 and 6 I need to rank by column E, but in sheets 2 and 3 I need to rank by column C. I have stepped through the code, which works for sheets 3-6, but doesn't seem to refer to sheets 1-2.
Sub WorksheetLoop() ' ' Loop through an indexed number of worksheets; _ ' & this ensures that the worksheet range is dynamic _ ' and is able to adjust when new sheets are added/removed, etc. ' 'Dim ws As Worksheet Dim i As Long Dim ws As Worksheet
I've worked on a solution for this thread (http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...-automate.html) but have been mentally challenged with how to avoid changing the loop counter in one of the loops I have used to resort an array of file names from the getopenfile dialog.
The aim of the shown code (see post 12 of the above link for attached file) is to check if the file containing the macro is included in the array returned by getopenfile while sorting the array of file names, and if so, moving it to the end of the array for "deletion" by redimming the array to exclude the last item. This problem of the open file being selected in the dialog may never arise, but... as the OP's request in the other thread was to allow two-way comparisons between numerous files, I've considered it likely enough to test for.
Here's the code I have settled for esp between the commented lines of hash symbols, which does change the counter (see the commented exclamation marks), but prevents an infinite loop (on my second try!) by using a second boolean flag of "HasCounterBeenChanged". Is there a better way of doing this? Or, alternatively (not in my thread title), is it possible to prevent the active file being selected through one of the arguments in the getopenfilename method?
I am working on some code that loops through a column of number values. Whenever it encounters a number value and a blank cell in an offset column, it places that number value into an offset cell (forming a separate column to be compared to another column in a separate sheet). I would like to take all the values in that new column and begin placing them in a new column in a separate sheet adjacent to another table. Most of the time, these values should match the adjacent values in the separate worksheet. However, if they don't match, I would like a new row to be created for that mismatched value.
For example. This is the first worksheet. So far, my macro loops through the column with rows 1-5. It looks in the offset cell(0,2) for Isempty value and then places that value into the offset cell(0,6)
For Each loop can be instructed to loop starting the bottom of the range. I know that a For To Loop can handle looping from the bottom up,
Sub Filterout() Dim c As Range Dim rng As Range Dim i As Long Dim lrow As Long Dim counter As Integer lrow = Cells(Rows.Count, 3).End(xlUp).Row Set rng = Range("c2:c36")
For Each c In rng If Left(c.Value, 1) "~~" Then c.EntireRow.Delete End If Next c
it seems like the first instance of the code is running the way i want it to run, but when it starts with the second instance, it does the first search and copy, but it seems like the nested loop is being ignored.
am i doing something wrong?

I have got a loop which is working fine but now i need another loop which will run till the end but need to repeat itself as soon the column x become 1 the highest number would be 3
here is my main loop A1 = 5000 and second loop need to run inside the this loop
Sheet1.Activate i = Range("A1")
For b = 1 To i If Cells(1 + b, 3).Value = "P" Then Cells(1 + b, 29).Value = 1 Else If Cells(1 + b, 3).Value = "S" Then Cells(1 + b, 29).Value = 2 Else If Cells(1 + b, 3).Value = "C" Then Cells(1 + b, 29).Value = 3 End If End If End If Next b
I have loops working in other loops. The macro is almsot working well. It does the calculation i want but it fails to stop a loop, because of that, the macro can't run the next main loop (c), which is to move to the next cell where the calculations must be run.
I attach a file. the troubleshooting macroation is Sub Itiration.
The code of this macro are bellow. Basically, the loop using d as counter run into an endless loop. I don't how to stop this loop without affecting the results which are calculated correctly.
Sub Itiration() Dim CurCell As Object Dim TempSum As Double Dim d As Integer
For c = 3 To Cells(3, 4) If Cells(11, c) > 0 Then For i = 1 To Cells(10, c) Do
Going through a loop, I am trying to load pictures into an image box (or alternatively into a label) one by one i.e. going through the loop the first time, I want to load picture 1, then on the second loop, picture 2 and so on. A bit like an automated slide show.
I have written a simple loop and have used the loadpicture function to load the picture into the image box. When the code runs, the image box only gets populated after the last run through the loop. I have tried using application.screen updating function and the image.activate function without success. It is a simple bit of code and I expect an easy problem to solve if you know excel vba well.
I am parsing 15,000 files from a network server. The files are all the same format and length. The problem is that the first few iterations of my loop run fairly quickly, 7 to 9 seconds a case, but after only 300 iterations I'm up to 60 seconds a case. How do I keep the last iteration running as fast as the first iteration? I've included the main loop of my parsing routine below.
Sub Fill_Summary_Tabs() 'fills out the Datapack and JMP tabs Application. ScreenUpdating = False 'turn off screen updating for speed

I am having some technical difficulties trying to place data onto sheet2. Sheet2 starts out blank, as sheet1 is proccessed it pastes data to sheet2. I have tried a "For Each" that failed only pasting data into Range "A1" for every found instance.
In the code below, the area colored "Magenta", I need a Loop of some type that as data is pasted into column A on sheet2, it indexes to the next available cell and continues. How do I construct such a Loop or For Each with in the existing For Each?
I don't get For Each loops. All I want to do is cycle through everywork sheet in the active workbook and lock certain cells. I've got the lock part working right but I have no idea how to effectively preform this on each sheet. From what I've read I think a For Each loop is the best way, but I can figure out how it works.
I have a spreadsheet that uses columns A:I. I want excel to be able to look at a row in the spreadsheet and where column I is empty it should delete cells I and H, then look at cell G and if it is empty, delete cells G and F, and then do exactly the same for columns E and C.
also, this spreadsheet is not always the same length, but always starts at row 15
