I have a macro that selects a range of about 20 columns and fills down. It works fine on my smaller set of data, but when I use one that has about 40,000 rows I get the error:
FillDown Method of Range Class Failed
It fills down about 7,000 rows, then fillsdown the first cell of the next row, but leaves the others blank. The entire range (including the nonfilled cells) is still selected.
I would love to be able to limit the number of rows in a specific sheet so that I can quickly carry formulas to the bottom of a worksheet without carrying them to row 1,048,576. I'm aware of options to hide rows and/or to limit the scrolling with the "view code" option on the worksheet tab; however, I'm mainly worried about worksheet performance. When I carry a formula down, I don't want to see a spinning blue circle run for minutes at a time, and I'm hoping to avoid the same spinning circle when I undo my formula. Is there any way to actually limit the number of rows, or is there any other limitation I could put in that would increase worksheet performance?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI got the following loop that is very slow. The main way (I think) to speed it up is to avoid looking at all the 65000 cells. The columns used in the calculations have data varying from a few hundred cells up to (rarely) dozens of thousands. I assume it would be better if I could replace the 65500 with something indicating the "end" of the data in the column. Also, is there another way to do this process without using a loop?
I am trying to fill in a number of rows with array formula's in the adjucent cells. I use the loop because the number of rows depends on a selection of another parameter which sets the row number before calling the loop.
I am trying to insert formulas to my cells in different columns and then fill down the formulas as many rows as in the reference column. So far I have put my formulas in a macro but I seem to get problems with " and ' symbols. My macro looks like this:
Sheets("Sold Articles Database").Select
Range("U3").Formula = " =VLOOKUP(LEFT(K3,2),'Input Variables'!$A$48:$B$52,2,FALSE)"
Range("V3").Formula = " =VLOOKUP(K3,'Product datas'!$A$2:$C$10000,3,FALSE)"
Range("W3").Formula = " =VLOOKUP(K3,'Product datas'!$A$2:$D$10000,4,FALSE)"

I have a set of data in column R, with an unknown number of rows that looks like this
Days Late
-28
150
3
16
41
.

.
and I have written a script to add an adjacent column "S". I want to fill column S with conditional values based on the value of column R, sorted into categories such as "On Time", "Less than One Month Late", etc. Here is what I have so far, it doesn't work:
I am running a macro that contains a template of a report and when it is done adding data to that report, it copies it to a new tab in the workbook, gives it a new name, and repeats with the next set of data in the blank template, over and over again.
Things work well, the code is correct. But I get to a point where the "Copy Sheet to new tab at end of workbook" doesn't work anymore. The copy sheet to new tab doesn't even work outside of the macro. Is there a limit on the number of sheets (it stuck at sheet 27) or a limit to the characters used across all sheets (my tab names can be long)?
The code I am using to copy to a new sheet is pretty simple:
Sheets("REPORT").Select
Sheets("REPORT").Copy After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)
ActiveSheet.Name = SheetName & " Data Report"
Thanks for some clarifications about this problem. I am wondering if there is a limitation in excel that I don't know about.
Is there a way to fix the the allowed numberformats in a workbook?
For example, is it possible to have only the following numberformats in a file : 0.0, 0.0% and $0.0. The file should not allow any other formats, and the user should not be able to create custom formats.
I am using a diamond shape that is copied into the active sheet when the user runs a macro. The user then selects the shape and enters some text. I want to limit the characters to a certain number or at least be able to give the user some advice when they enter too many characters.
I have found that, as long as I have manually named the shape "Diamond1", I can get the count in my immediate window with the following:
?ActiveSheet.Shapes("Diamond1").TextFrame.Characters.Count
but I want the count to relate to the active shape. So I tried:
?selection.shapeRange.TextFrame.Characters.Count
and I get a "runtime error 438 Object doesn't support this property or method".
How should I count the characters in the selected shape, and then if it is over say 12, require the user to shorten it or at least present yield a message Box?
I want to automatically prevent users from entering more than two digits into a textbox.
i dont want to show a message box or anything like that. I want it to be physically imposible for them to enter more than two digits i.e. when they enter two digits, pressing any other keys on the keyboard should have no effect on the contents of the textbox.
I have a user form that writes data from textboxes 1, 2 and 3 into the next empty row in a speadsheet but what i want to do is write the data into rows 1 to 100 then start again at row 1 overwriting the data. The reason is that i have the rows linked to a graph and want to continually show the last 100 results and never have to manually delete old data.

I have a macro that runs every 15 minutes and stores data into a table. This table is attached to a chart and auto updates with the new data every 15minutes. The table will house historical data over time, however I only want the chart to reflect the last 96 entries (15min data points over 24hours). So, once i have enough data my table will be A2:A97. When A98 is populated, i want the data in A2 to be removed from the chart only.
Here is a breakdown:
A2:A97 is currently displayed on the chart.
I enter new data into A98.
The chart will now display A3:A98.
I enter new data into A99.
The chart will now display A4:A99.
I enter new data into A100.
The chart will now display A5:A100.
and so on.
How I can accomplish this? Does this need to be done in VBA?
trying to limit the number of characters entered in a cell.
I clicked on Custom then =LEN(A10)=6 which works when i enter more or less than 6 characters, however it lets you paste in something which has more than 6 charters.
I'm making a line diagram, showing how a value changes over time. My data is measured every 30 min, which results in a mess when it's plotted over a month.
How do I limit the number of times shown on the x-axis, for instance so that only the date (every 24 hours) is shown?
I wish to limit the number of text characters in a cell and have excel prevent the entry of additional characters after limit is reached. I have tried the Data Validation but it does not preven the entry of additional characters. I want to be able to show the error immediately when the limit is reached and no additional characters are permitted.

I'm using the prob() function, and it works for no more than 61 random numbers. Does anyone know of a limit on the number of random numbers used in the function, and whether it's possible to use more numbers in the function? My formula is:

I have an area in my spreadsheet (the current region surrounding cell G6) in which the height for each row should not exceed a specified limit (say, 150). It's okay if the row height is less than the limit - these rows should be left alone. I only want to resize those that exceed the defined row height limit.
Is there a simple way to reset the row height for rows whose height exceeds a specified maximum row height limit?
When you want to use Data Validation to limit the entry of the number of characters to a cell does this apply only to the cell that you are entering the characters or can it also apply to a cell that contains a LEN(A1) formula, for instance? Also,does the Data Validation limitation function includes spaces as well? Will the message appear while you are entering the characters (when it has reached the limit) or will it wait until you have hit Enter?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an Excel file that is 590 MB and Excel is telling me that since there are over 1,048,576 rows in this file (which I understand is the row limit for Excel 2010), it will only open partially, up to that row amount.
Excel suggested I open up the file in Word, but that has been unsuccessful - Word gives me error messages and won't open the file. I've also tried converting the file to .rtf and .odt, but again, that doesn't work.
Is there any way to break this excel file down? I'm assuming that whoever created it could not have made the document more than 1,048,576 rows, if that is Excel's limit, but maybe I am wrong. The document is in date order from 2008 to 2011, but only 2008 will show, and I know the later years exist. It doesn't matter to me which program this file opens with, I just need the data.
I have a sheet with a hierarchy of operating units in a column, with DirectX checkboxes next to each (used a VBA script to auto-create the checkboxes ).
The checkboxes go from D5:D147, so 142 checkboxes. They are named checkbox_D5, checkbox_D6 all the way to 147, so checkbox_[Column]&[Row].
Based on a True/False value in another column to the right (BA or column#53), I am hiding specific rows. Just to give a sense, if a checkbox for a Level 2 hierarchy is clicked, I have some formulas to determine which Level 3 rows will be shown by putting a TRUE in column BA. For sake a speed, I created these to only run for 30 rows per click (that's the most that would ever change on a checkbox click).
I did not know how to do it any cleaner, so I created 142 of these:
Code:
Private Sub CheckBox_D5_Change()
Dim i As Long
For i = 5 To i + 30
[Code]....
It works OK up to checkbox_D23 or 24, but excel seems to reduce the number of rows it goes through for each checkbox below that, with checkbox_D31 down doing nothing. I read somewhere about a 32 form item limit, wonder if I'm hitting that.. Cleaner way to do this vs. 142 instances of checkbox_XX_change() events?
I have a UDF for a lookup_occurrence formula (thanks to Dave), and I was wondering if it was possible to tweak the range it looks at with if statements.
I have a formula like this =Lookup_Occurence(B13, INDIRECT($N$5), 1,1,5) where N5 says exit card 1.
I need it to only look at a certain rows within exit card 1 depending on the value entered in I5.
If value I5 says Period_1 it will only look in rows 12:46.
If value I5 says Period_2 it will only look in rows 48:82 etc.
I believe I need to modify the xl look part of the code with if statements.
Below is the code. I am wondering if I can replace the xlLook line with nested if statements. If I5="Period_1 then rows 12:46" etc.
Function Lookup_Occurence(To_find, Table_array As Range, _
Look_in_col As Long, Offset_col, Occurrence As Long, _
Optional Case_sensitive As Boolean, Optional Part_cell_match As Boolean)
Dim lLoop As Long
Dim rFound As Range
Dim xlLook As XlLookAt
Dim lOcCheck As Long
I have on the first tab a screen where you can fill in the name of the .doc or .pdf file.
That works fine, but now I would like that when I fill in a number and click on test, it opens te .doc and .pdf file that is attached for that number.
If you take a look at the pdf file you will see a second and a third tab.
First column is the number they need to fill in and the second column is the name of the .doc or .pdf that needs to be opened with that specific number.
How to link it and open both files for that specific number.
But not every number has a .doc as well as a .pdf.

I have a worksheet with 40 colums and 9200 rows. There are columns with empty data in the rows. Can I have a macro to copy data in the rows in Column E, F, I, J K and L to empty rows below?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook with many spreadsheet named Sheet1, Sheet2 and so on. Each sheet is filled completely upto 65536 rows. This data is being picked up from a CSV file. In this file there are sites with each site there is a assciated set of data. What happens is the data that extracts data does not differntiate between sites and when it reaches to the end of worksheet it splits the data into next sheet. So I am trying to create a macro to check each spreadsheet starting with the last sheet in the work book for example last sheet in the workbook is seven it should go to sheet6 and if there is a blank row after row 64000 it should cut all the rows and move them to sheet7. Then it should goto sheet5 and do the same and keep on doing it until it reaches sheet1.
