FIND Returns Previous Data

Mar 17, 2009

This code (partial) was written to interrogate a database. Cell "A2" of another tab contains a Part Number to be sought.

Target = Range("A2")
Sheets("Kanban Data").Select
Dim Nrow As Range
Dim N As Integer
On Error Resume Next
With Sheets("Kanban Data")
Set Nrow = .Columns(2).Find(What:=Target, After:=.Cells(3, 2), LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False)

If the Find expression (as pulled down from the Edit menu) is empty, then inserting a Part Number in A2 and executing the macro finds the correct record and returns the its correct row number (N, as defined afterwards in the code). Then, changing the Part Number in cell A2 and executing a new search returns the SAME row as the previous search, despite Target being equal to the new sought after value.

Drop Down List Which Returns Values Based On What Has Been Selected In The Previous Drop Down List In The Adjacent Cell

Mar 19, 2009

I'm trying to create a drop down list which returns values based on what has been selected in the previous drop down list in the adjacent cell, e.g. if 'Apples' is selected in the previous cell then you should only be able to select from 'Gala, Granny Smith', or if 'Oranges' is selected you should only be able to select 'Seville, Blood Orange'. Is there a formula which would do this, or can I use a pivot table somehow? I'm totally stumped.

Find Value Of Previous Non-Blank Cell?

Sep 25, 2012

I have a row of dates with a variable number of nonblank cells between them. e.g.:

A1 1/9/12
B1 6/9/12
C1
D1 8/9/12
E1
F1
G1 12/9/12

I want to calculate the NETWORKDAYS between dates, but where there is a blank cell, I want to be able to use the date in the previous nonblank cell. For example, NETWORKDAYS(B1,D1), if cell C1 is blank or NETWORKDAYS(D1,G1), if cell F1 is blank.

how to get the value of the previous nonblank cell and nest it inside the NETWORKDAYS formula?

Find Previous Non-empty Cell

Mar 28, 2007

I'm trying to use the find() function (or another if it exists) to find a previous non-empty cell.

Basically, the active cell will be ain a column with mostly empty cells, and I need it to move up the column looking for the previous cell that is not blank. I could do it with a loop, but I'd rather not if possible.

Find Returns #VALUE! Error

Nov 12, 2006

My formula =IF(OR( FIND("Bugs",E2),FIND("Daffy",E2)),"/wkly",0). Always returns #VALUE! error. I can understand if neither value occurs in the string, what confounds me is if one of the two does occur in the string If I shorten to

=IF(FIND("Bugs",E2),"/wkly",0)

Then the expected output is returned

Find Method Only Returns 2nd Value In Cell

Mar 11, 2014

My .find function is only finding the 2nd value in a cell example If i look up the term " HOSE"

5/8 hose water Will return
5/8 heater hose will not

Basically what I am making is something I am calling a "what" button. It queries my database and returns all the part numbers with the term i put in and i thought it was working fine till i was testing it, did i do something to select this? I've tried xlpart and xl whole. Neither is working.

Here is the code below

Sub COPYPARTNUMBERINFO()Dim parttofind As String
Dim partcell As Range
Dim partref As Range
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="*******"
Range("t6:T10000:u6:U10000").Select
Selection.ClearContents
parttofind = InputBox("What is the number or discription")

Find Function In VBA Returns A Date That Is Almost Correct

Is it possible to see why this code returns a date that is almost correct? Searching for 01.01.2005 I get 01.11.2005 as result. I would like the code to only show the correct date, and if it doesn't exist it should end up showing "nothing".

Code:

Find Replace To Insert Carriage Returns

Jun 30, 2013

I'm working with a document that has several cells which require double carriage returns within cells. The location of each space is marked with an @ sign. A few weeks ago, I found an article online that explained how to do a find replace where the find value was '@' and the replace value was a series of numbers/characters that created a carriage return. When I doubled the carriage return code I got my two spaces. If I remember correctly, the string that I entered still appeared in the cell, so I needed to clean up afterwards by replacing that string with ' ', but it still left the line break.

VBA- Write A Macro To Find The Similar Maturity, Compute The Returns

Feb 13, 2007

I am working with financial data and am exposed to a problem that excel formula cannot solve. I am very new to VBA and would like some assistance please. I have in one excel column the list of maturities in dates eg. EN02, EN03, EN04 etc (EN=January). I have in another column the corresponding prices for these maturities. What I would like to do is compute the returns on similar maturities and paste the returns in the returns column. I can use a formula for this when the consecutive maturities are the same. The problem arises when I want excel to find the previous similar maturity, which may be 5 cells or so before. How do I write a macro to find the similar maturity, compute the returns and place that returns value in the returns column.

Jul 21, 2014

I'm trying to work out to most efficient way of making a quality monitoring system which uses traffic lights to show problem products.

The traffic light system need to obey the following "rules".

Each product is tested once daily When a product fails once it moves to Amber, When a product Fails twice in a row it moves to RedOne pass when a product is in Amber Status, will reset it to green.If a Product is in Red status, it much have 3 consecutive passes to reset to Green.

I have tried to use array formulae to look up a column for previous values in the past for this sort of thing, but with 100000+ rows it runs far too slowly.

Banana Problem?

Macro To Copy And Paste Auto Filtered Data To Existing Worksheet Below Previous Data

Oct 18, 2013

I have been working on a macro that compares a existing list of data to an updated list of data and then either moves any data not on the new list over to a completed tab (followed by deleting the record on the existing sheet), and then adds any items not on the existing sheet, but which appear on the new list, to the existing list.

I have come across a stumbling block, i have managed to identify on the existing list the rows of data that have been removed from the new list and therefore need to be moved over to the completed tab, but when i select the data it selects the header row aswell (which will always remain the same row). Obviously this then pastes the header row aswell, and also i can't seem to get it to paste in the new sheet to the next available row (i.e this will be used daily and i don't won't to overwrite the infor already in the completed tab). the next issue i have is then when i go back to existing sheet to delete the data i just copied across, as the header was initially select this also gets deleted.

The code below, is the complete code, including filtering, copying some forumals etc. The area i am getting stuck on is highlighted in red:

Sub Update()
Dim bottomrow As Long
Dim My_Range As Range
bottomrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
Set My_Range = Range("A1:Y" & bottomrow)

Data Connection From Web / Web Query Returns Code Instead Of Selected Data Table

May 31, 2014

A web query I am trying to use to bring an online data table into my worksheet is broken. Now, instead of returning the data table nicely into my worksheet, it imports the code of the webpage, instead, and turns my worksheet into a mess.

The query used to work but there was recently an "upgrade" to the program that populates the web table and the query no longer works and just returns the code for the page, instead. I can see the html code for the table in all of the code it returns but I really need the table to import cleanly into excel.

I can't talk to the people who changed the web program.

its a simple spreadsheet that suppose to track a usage of items that were taken out of inventory,
but at the same it needs to be printer friendly (that's what's causing all the problems),

it got messy when I had to carry over from previous row,
I had to manually enter under "Quantity ch." in order to have correct amount under "Left" column, (see row #4)

I think I can eliminate whole "Carried over" column if I create a formula that will enter data into B4 only if J3 has a number, I also need to copy the same formula's down each column,

Delete Previous Months Data

Feb 15, 2009

OK essentially this is my problem:

I have a daily spreadsheet, uou update for inputs and outputs each day and the spreadsheet gets to an overperformance figure (sorry if the spreadsheet is a lottle unclear, it is a simplified version)

On the first day of each month, the opening target is adjusted and you start again. The probelm is you dont know what the opening target is until roughly 21st of the month.

I created a macro that deletes the opening target and removes all the previous days before the start of the month.

The way i done this was:

Create a copy of "daily" tab, change b5 to equals c2 and copy and paste special as values. Then in d5-d58 and f5 - f58, vlookup values from old "daily" tab , and then copy and paste special as values. Then delete old "daily" tab and remname daily(2) as "daily"

What i have done is essentially created a new tab on 21st March, looking back to data only as far back as 1st Mar and the new opening bal and target is found. The macro can be used on the 21st of each month.

but...macro doesnt work, i have tried a few times and i think it is because i am vlookuping up data from a tab that i later delete...please help!! - thanks a mil to anybody that can give me a steer in the right direction.

Highlight Cell When Row Data Changes From Previous Row

Jul 7, 2013

I have a spreadsheet with over 6k rows, each with over 30 columns.

My focus is in 2 columns. ColumnA is formatted as General, ColumnB as Number.

ColumnA
ColumnB

05255088-0f15-48f1-a65e-affb6d583d35
1373064224475

05255088-0f15-48f1-a65e-affb6d583d35
1373064224475

[Code] ........

I need VBA code that will Fill the cell in ColumnB if it changes within the same ColumnA data.

So the output would end up like this. (Although the cell would be filled, not the text turned red)

05255088-0f15-48f1-a65e-affb6d583d35
1373064224475

05255088-0f15-48f1-a65e-affb6d583d35
1373064224475

[Code] .........

So it's pretty basic. If we simply remember the first ColumnA and ColumnB data, go to the next row, if ColumnA is the same, then ColumnB should be the same. If it's not, then fill with red, go to the next row, repeat. if ColumnA changes, remember the new pair, go to the next row and compare again.

I've thought about this from a scripting perspective, and imagine that something like this would do the job:

Code:
sub FindBadTermID ()
Dim row As Integer
Dim dataA as string, dataB as string
Set row = 2

newColumnALoop
