Fast Way To Clear A Range Of Cells
Jul 8, 2009This seems to take much longer than I would have expected. Is there anything I can do to speed it up, or is this just something to live with?

Monitor Fast Moving Decimal Values In The Even Numbered Cells
Jul 26, 2009To monitor fast moving decimal values in the even numbered cells( e.g. F2 to F 30 ) of a column, ignoring blank cells, and if two of cells values simultaneously fall below a certain value e.g. 2.04 True if not False.
Clear Contents Of Cells In A Range, LEN=0
Dec 23, 2009I'm using a macro to copy the results of a formula and paste the values only on another sheet. The result includes lots of "blank" rows. I have another macro to get rid of the empty rows and move the information up.
It's not working because the "blank" rows aren't empty. Even though I paste values only, experimentation shows that the cells that appear blank return a false to the ISBLANK test with a length of 0.
So now I think I need a macro to run after the pastespecial command to look for cells within a range with a length of zero and delete the contents of those cells, but leave alone anything with a length of >0.
I am brand new to the idea of using VBA, but I have successfully cobbled together some stuff and can usually modify things to work.
It seems I need to maybe use some sort of IF statement along with a LEN and ClearContents. I don't want to delete the blank cells, just make them truly empty so that all of my actual data stays where it should, and my delete empty rows macro works correctly.
I did a search and see some info on clearing contents of columns or rows, or clearing contents based on the content of other columns or rows, but I'm unsure of how to tell it to search each cell within a range and clear the contents of 0-length cells to make them truly empty.
Clear Cells In Range That Are Not Numeric
Mar 28, 2007I am trying to write a macro in excel to clear all cells within a range that are non numeric. I seem to be going round in circles trying to find out how to do this.
I assume I have to use the IsNotNumeric(Target) argument but I can't find how to specify the target within a range.
Clear Numeric Cells In Range
Jan 19, 2008I am trying to code a command button to clear a range of cells if any of them contain a numeric value. For example. If any cells of cell range A1:C10 contain a numeric value then they would be cleared. Not all the cells in the range but only thouse contaiing numeric values. I have tried various methods with not-so-good results.

Clear Cells In A Range Based On Other Cell Values
Jun 6, 2012I have two rows of numbers, say D1 to F1 and D2 to F2. Row D2 to F2 will always have lower values.
The range below it is D3 to F100. I want the range to clear the contents of the cells in the range where:
a) the cell is > the x1 cell above it
OR b) the cell is < the x2 cell above it
If it is = or between the two cells, the value stays.
Example:
If D1 thru F1 is 4, 5, 7 and D2 thru F2 is 2, 4, 3, then:
D3 is 5, it is cleared
E3 is 4, it stays
F3 is 5, it stays
D4 is 2, it stays
E4 is 1, it is cleared
F4 is 9, it is cleared
Etc
Basically, the cell in the range looks up its own column, compares itself to x1 and x2 in that column. If it's greater than or less than, then it clears the contents, if not, the value in the cell stays.
VBA Macro: Clear All Constant Cells In Range That Don't Have Formulas
Jun 22, 2009is there a way to do this in VBA? I've also read: - Dave Hawley's recommendation of using: Sheet1.UsedRange.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants).ClearContents
from another thread (which is excellent!)
- SHG's recommendation of using a named range, for example:
Range("Inputs").ClearContents
Given my limited knowledge of VBA, how would I now combine the two to write a VBA sub-routine that clears a named range entitled "Entry" on a sheet entitled "Data"? Would the following be the correct syntax: Worksheets("Data").Range("Entry").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants).ClearContents
Excel 2010 :: Clear Contents Of A Range Of Contiguous Cells
Jun 4, 2013I am trying to clear the contents of a range of contiguous cells (containing formula) in Excel 2010 64bit. But it is taking a LONG time (read >30min to clear a range 288 x 100). Originally was doing it in VBA but it was taking too long so I started stepping through the macro and identified that the slow down was occurring on a particular sheet only. So the problem is in Excel....not VBA because it is still very slow when deleting the same range in Excel without using VBA.
I've tried all the usual suspects including: Application.EnableEvents = False (run from the VBA Immediate window when using Excel without VBA), Setting to Example of slow clear contents5.xlsxExample of slow clear contents5.xlsxManual Calculation, Turning off screen updating, deleting all the conditional formatting on the sheet, removing any data validation from the sheet (yes all these at the same time). There are no links to external workbooks. I've even tried in VBA changing from .ClearContents to .Value = vbNullString. All to NO AVAIL! By way of background the file is about 72Mb #.xlsm.
If I try to clear contents of larger ranges on other sheets in the same workbook it is instantaneous. If I copy the problem worksheet off to a new workbook, I can delete the problem range almost instantly. Why deleting a range of cells should take so long! Again to clarify, I am using the terms "delete" and "clear contents" interchangeably, but they both mean "clear contents" (not delete and move up cells). P.S I've also looked into the reported conflict between Excel and Google Desktop Office Add-in (Office Button->Excel Options->Addins->Com Addins and deselect Google Desktop Office Addin) but I didn't have Google Desktop Office Add-in so it isn't that.
Fill Range Of Cells With Text When Listbox Option Selected - Clear When Not Selected
Jul 25, 2014I am using this code to hide or unhide rows of text on another sheet:
VB:
Sub ProcessSheet1ChangeOnCellJ7(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim sAddress As String
Dim sValue As String
'Get the address of the cell that changed without '$' signs
sAddress = Target.Address(False, False)
[Code]....
When the "Not Pursuing" list box option is selected (in cell "J7" or "J8" in Sheet 1) I need to add (or over-write) "Not Pursuing" to the range of cells in column "B" (in the "Tasks" sheet), but only for that particular Goal, meaning a limited range of cells in column "B". If the "Pursuing - Show All Tasks" option is selected for a Goal then these same cells need to be blank so that the appropriate person can enter their name into the cell.
The purpose for adding "Not Pursuing" automatically to these yellow highlighted cells is that it will facilitate filtering of tasks by individual in the "Tasks" sheet..
Again I have tried several times to upload a sample file and am unable to, which I know makes it more difficult to solve. (Is there some common mistake people make? I know it's an allowed format and is very small in file size....)
Code solution can be entered directly beneath:
VB:
If Target.Value = "Not Pursuing" Then
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Tasks").Rows("29:29").EntireRow.Hidden = False
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Tasks").Rows("30:48").EntireRow.Hidden = True

Fast Typing With Keywords
Mar 1, 2007I'm working on an Excel spreadsheet and basicly i'm inserting manually data from a lot of paper forms.
It isn't a dificult thing, but is boring, because I have to do more than 2000 forms per week!
I want to accelerate, and how to do that
Problem: "Address"! The Excel page that i'm working has a column to feel with Addresses manually, but I have a table with all correct Address names from the city that I'm working about in other page.
What I would like is when start typing some keyword from the Address cell, it could show me all the choises of input (based on the correct Address Table)
Excel, by default, show, by exact order, all the choises, already typed on the same collumn.
I don't want that.
- imagine I have the Table 1 (representing the table with all city adresses) with a collumn called 'Address' with:
A1 - Street ZXY
A2 - Avenue QWE
A3 - Street QWE
A4 - Avenue ZXY
when typing on another Table, if I write something like “QWE” show me the A2 and A3 to choose wich I'm going to feel, and the same to “ZXY”, showing the A1 and A4. Other thing, if I write “QWE street” may show A3 also. Keyword is what i'm talking about
Fast Macro To Hide Empty Rows
Mar 22, 2014Im looking for a macro that hide empty rows. I found some simple macro but that are long to execute. While looking for a faster code, I found two codes that work pretty fast. But as I don't understand VBA I am not able to adjust them to my situation.
First macro: I am able to specify my range (B6:B77), but the macro applies to blank cells and I need to apply to "" cells.

Second macro: very fast as well. Here, it applies to "" cells, but I am unable to specify a range. So the rows 1 to 4, which are empty, are hidden but should not.

Macro To Clear Certain Cells In Row If First Cells Date Is In The Past
Apr 9, 2014I would like to run a macro that would check if the date in the first cell of row is in the past.
If yes, then it would clear contents of cell in B,C,F,I,L of the same row (PLAN + SHIFTS). Or even better it would set them to 0 (zero).
Then it would hide the entire row. Is this even possible?

Clear Contents Of All Unlocked Cells (many Are Merged Cells

That is not a problem but since many of the cells are merged I know it keeps throwing me an error saying cannot change contents of merged cells or something like that.

I saw a code to unmerge all of the cells on a sheet but I really don't want to do this as I already have worked around most of my problems with the merged cells.

Clear Used Range
Feb 21, 2010I have a table on a worksheet and have for quite some time used a very successful macro UsedRangeClear. I found here on the forum. Anyway the macro still works on all tables on all other sheets except this one. This is the reason, somehow someone, maybe even me, copied something down or formated down to the 1,048,152th row of the worksheet. My workbook has grown from 5000 kb to 11,000 kb.
I have tried to highlight and deleted the rows, highlight and clear contents and the following macros:
Sub UsedRangeClear()
On Error Resume Next
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="myfadra"
Range("A:A").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).EntireRow.Delete
ActiveSheet.UsedRange
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="myfadra"
End Sub
Sub ReSetTable_UsedRange()
'For ICFMR
Dim LR As Long
LR = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).row
On Error Resume Next
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="myfadra"
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Range("A:A").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).EntireRow.Delete
ActiveSheet.ListObjects("Table7").Resize Range("A1:T" & LR)
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="myfadra"
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Each option freezes Excel. I am sure there is something easy I am just missing. Soooo, Please offer any suggestions you can think of.

Clear Autofilter Range
Nov 28, 2006I'm wrinting a macro to copy specific data from a table. To do that I'm using a Autofilter and a list of criteria. The macros works fine for existent data, I'm mean, when the result of the filter is not null, but when the filter doesn't find a result, instead of clearing the filter range, it keeps the last valid. The result is a colapse and freeze the Excel. I'd like to know how can I reset or clear the filter range?
The code I'm using is:
Sub Filter_01()
'Definições preliminares
Dim rng As Range
Dim rng2 As Range
Dim ARLE
Dim filter_valid, filter_invalid As Variant
filter_valid = Array()
filter_invalid = Array()
