Find Method Without Selecting Found Values
Oct 17, 2007
My worksheet contains several codes that I then have to lookup in a different worksheet in a different workbook to obtain the relevant data associated with that code. At present I do this by activating the appropriate worksheet, Using Find to locate the appropriate field in that worksheet and then using activecell.offset to get the needed data. This is the only time that these worksheets ever need to be activated so I was wondering if there is a way to do this without having to actually activate the sheet. As an exapmle this is what I currently do:
' variables defined earlier in the program, Tempsheet = workbooks(FileNm & ".xls").worksheet("Temp")
Spark = Cells(TRow, 8).Value
' Activate the reference Sheet
Workbooks("Waveguide Properties.xls").Worksheets("Spark Bends").Activate
Cells.Find(What:=Spark).Activate
COM = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2).Value
Edge = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 3).Value
SparkArray(i, 1) = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Value
SparkArray(i, 5) = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 4).Value
SparkArray(i, 6) = Spark
' Reactiave the workbook and worksheet I am working in
TempSheet.Activate

I have error trapping in place so if a find in a column returns no data the procedure continues, but the code breaks there anyway.
In Tools/Options/General/Error Trapping I have Break on Unhandled Errors checked.
I have changed my error trapping lables.
I have copied the procedure and renamed it.

I have a very large worksheet (row count maxed in 2007, and then some), for which I need to do the following: search column A for a string that will occur many times, and then check the 10 cells that follow in its row for negative values, dropping some sort of indicator in the 11th (shading it red or something would be fine). An additional bonus would be if the 10 cells that possibly contain a negative could be summed (the sum could serve as the indicator?). If no negative is found, nothing need be done, and the macro should chug along searching A for the next reference to this string.
My hope was to do a sort of "With Range("A:A"), .Find("MyString")", save position as StartPos, do the 10-cell row checking in a nested IF or For (though the For would take a long while, checking each cell individually), then doing a .FindNext after StartPos until = StartPos (does .FindNext loop back to the top?). The formatting of the indicator cell in the 12th cell in each relevant row doesn't really matter, it's more just for jumping to critical rows.

I have designed ad workbook with a lot of combobox. The cbo are partly controlling other cbo. The sheet works perfekt and in the code they are handled as intented. So no mispelling of any cbo or sheetname.
Where I get my problem:
If the workbook is open and I close Excel then I get the "Compiler error: Method or data member not found".
But if I close only the workbook I don't get any Compiler error.
It is as if the problem is caused by a Excel problem - If Excel is closed the sheet is recalculated but closed and there fore ends in compiler errors.
This error is in Excel 2000 + 2003 + 2007 - so not version related.
I have been searching the net for a solution for this problem but haven´t had any luck so fare. I starting to believe that there is no solution to this proboem.

I have a range of amounts in Sheet 1 from F7:Q13 and im using the find method to search for the active and non active values in the cell. Which means that if there's a value in the cell it will transfer the value in Sheet 2, if nothing is found in the cell the cells in Sheet 2 will return as nothing or null.
I think the problem lies on the FindWhat variable. Im getting a compiled error which im not sure what is it.
I've attached the spreadsheet so you get a better idea of the problem that i encountered.

I am using Excel 2007 and the following code is generating an error 1004 (Method 'Range' of object '_Worksheet' failed) on the .Range select line. I am trying to select a bunch of noncontiguous ranges and then format them all at one time.
Code:
With Sheet1
.Range("B9:G9,B10:D11,E10:E11,F10:G11,A13:G13,A14:D20,E14:E20,F14:G20,A22:H22,A23:D24,E23:F24,
G23:H24,A26:H26,A27:D28,E27:F28,G27:H28,B30:G30,B31:C32,D31:E32,F31:G32,B34:G34,B35:B36,E35:E36,C35:D36,F35:
G36,B38,B39:C40,D39:D40,E39:F40,B42:G42,B43:D50,E43:E50,F43:G50,A52:G52,A53:C54,D53:D54,E53:G54,
G61:G62,H65:H66,A56:H56,A57:H60,A61:F62,A64:H64,A65:G66").Select
With Selection.Interior
.Pattern = xlNone
.TintAndShade = 0
.PatternTintAndShade = 0
End With
End With
I've written longer lines of code, so I don't think it's a line length issue. Is there a limit to the number of ranges or cells that Excel can select at one time?

I'm trying to use this Find Method and combine it with a countif or loop. Something that will count a number of occurences of a unique type of character. I'm looking to find all "F" characters in Bold, Italic and Size 16. Here's my find code that I'm trying to use. I can get it to work by itself but not along with a countif or loop.
Sub count_4()
Dim r As Range
Set r = Range("A1:A6")
With Application.FindFormat.Font
.Bold = True
.Italic = True
.Size = 16
End With
r.Find(What:="F", LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, searchformat:=True, MatchCase:=True).Activate

If Sheet6. Range("O8").Value = 4 Then
For Each cell In Sheet10.Range("B5", "B369")
If (cell.Value = Sheet6.Range("L24").Value) Then
cell.Offset(0, Sheet6.Range("L21").Value).Value = Sheet1.ActiveCell.Value
End If
Next cell
End If
it says the part of code causing the error is the end of the 'cell.offset' part, as highlighed: Sheet1.ActiveCell.Value. i tried replacing it with '.Selection', still get the same error.

But, the "Staff 001" data must appear twice in each workbooks. If i use the above command, i only can extract the FIRST "Staff 001" average data. But SECOND "Staff 001" average data cannot extract. I know it may be use FindNext method to do this but i am not sure how to write it

I know I must be missing something basic, but why is this code assigning a value to "NamePosition", instead of a range:
RightName = Sheets("WorkingSheet").Cells(1, 1).Value
Sheets("Tracker").Activate
Set StudentTbl = Sheets("Tracker").Range("A1:" & "Z" & NumStudents)
Set NamePosition = StudentTbl.Find(What:=RightName, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False)
I thought the find method returned a range?

I am having trouble using teh find method. I'm using it to search for a string in a column, then give me the row number, which is fine when the string is found, but when it is not I get an error of "variable not set." I'm pretty certain it is returning void, but how to I capture that? Here's the
voucher_row = Worksheets("Table").Columns("D:D").Find(voucher, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole).Row
"voucher" is a string.

I am going through various excel sheets looking for certain text on them. not all of the sheets will have the text.
I have been using
Cells. Find(What:="FindMe", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt _
:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
False).Activate
and it works fine, if the text is on the sheet. When the text is not on the sheet, how should I handle this.
I have tried On Error and IsError variations, but could use a little guidance

I have a spreadsheet that is about 500 rows and 70 columns big. I am trying to make a formula that lets me name three criteria from the same row, and using that find a value in that same row but different column. I am trying to find the the ampage of a motor. I am given the capacity, speed, and RPM's it can handle. However there are multiple rows that have these same values. I want to find the row with the greatest ampage value and take that value. How might I go about doing this?? Ive tried working with Index, Match, Vlookup, and Hlookup and cannot figure out the correct combination of these.
Heres an example. My capacity is Column A, my speed is in column B, and my RPM is in column S. I am trying to find the amps which are located in column AB. My first three values(capacity, speed, and RPM) are all deteremined and there are 6 rows in which all three of these values occur. I want to find the max amps in a row with those three criteria.

I'm having problems with trying to find something in the spreadsheet and inserting a row before it. For example I would like write code that basically goes threw my rows and if it finds the "2800" then it inserts a row before that. I have now bought several books but I have yet to come up with an answer.

giving me a macro to find a word in a sentence by using the "FIND" method.
For example I have a sentence say "I am happy" in which I have to search whether any of 2 words say "Happy" or "Sad" is there or not. If the sentence contains any of these words, then that row has to be highlighted.

How to get the GetFromClipboard syntax from here working with my code (below), but am having a really frustrating time. Basically, I need to search for whatever value is copied to the clipboard (as you can see below which will be relative to a certain cell).
Here's what I have so far, and I'm trying to replace the contents of the What:="121212121" part of the Find method to look for the clipboard contents (a 9 char number) in another sheet (where a duplicate exists - the value I am searching will be a unique identifier for the incorrectly created duplicate record that needs to be deleted).
So, What:=<insert number/string on clipboard here>
VB:
Sub DeleteDupes()
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 5).Range("A1").Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("ActvMbrs_MatchCombos").Select
Cells.Find(What:="121212121", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _

I am trying to use the .Find method to match a date. In sheet2 I have a range of cells which are formatted to only show the day "dd" (I could format each cell to show (dd-mmm-yy, etc). In sheet1, I have dates which are formatted as "January 7, 2009"
I want to create a VBA find routine which allows me to match the date from Sheet2 (Ranged between cells A1:Z1) with Sheet1. Then output a MsgBox stating "Match found in cell $A$7 of Sheet1" I have tried a formula similar to:
PHP Set FoundCell = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1:Z1").Find _
(what:=DateValue("January 7, 2009") ,lookin:=xlFormulas)

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")

I am using the find method to search column headings, and based on the results copy the column to another worksheet. Everything works fine except if I have a mixed text and numeric string in the cell, for example DT35. In this case the macro doesn't copy this column. I have attached the spreadsheet. CTRL - A will run the macro. The macro calls a form with checkboxes, captioned using the values in the worksheet titled "Set-Up". If a value is found in the column heading the checkbox is set to true, then when the "Copy Selected Columns to Final Sheet" button is selected the columns are copied to the "FinalSheet" worksheet. I tried using xlPart instead of xlWhole, and this works but I need to search for exact strings so xlPart isn't a great work around.

I have a UserForm (and associated code) to locate a specific entry in Column 'A' of a spreadsheet and insert a date, initials, and hyperlink to another file.
The basic code works fine, but did not account for the user entering a Job# that was not in the system, so I added an If/Else to account for this...
The additional code took the If (Job# not found) route every time...
Following many hours of searching this site and variations of the error handling code, I still can not get it to work.
So I'm asking for your assistance to point out why the error handling (based on other successful code found here) is not working for me.
'Insert Link
Private Sub CommandButton3_Click()
If TextBox1.Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Insert a Job#"
Exit Sub
ElseIf TextBox2.Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Insert Quoters Initials"
Exit Sub
ElseIf TextBox3.Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Insert Quote Date"
Exit Sub
The 'Find' part of the code is working, as the correct cell is selected after running the code... but it gives the error message, instead of executing the rest of the code...
If I remove the 'On Error Resume Next', it stops on the find block, where on inspection FindR = Nothing.
So if FindR does = Nothing, how did it manage to select the cell?

Asking for a row value to be returned if a string is found to exist in the sheet. Works great if it finds the value but I get the following error when the string isn't found:
Run Time Error '91':
Object Variable or With block variable not set.
Concept code follows. The commented strOCNumOF line contains the value that's found on the sheet. The uncommented line contains a value not found.
Sub find_test1()
Dim intFoundOnCur As Integer
Dim strOCNumOF As String
strOCNumOF = "AP4506"
'strOCNumOF = "BP6020"
intFoundOnCur = ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet. Cells.Find(What:=strOCNumOF, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, SearchOrder:=xlByRows).Row
