I'm writing some code where I need to know the column in which a specifc text string occurs. Because of the nature of the sheet, the string will only appear in one column, but that could be in almost any column on the worksheet.
For example say the text string is "Year 1", I need to find the column with this string, and then offset down to a predetermined row, or offset over to the appropriate column (something like below).
With Selection
.Offset(0, x).Select
If List.Selected(0) = True Then
y = i - 1
With Selection
.Value = Salary * Inflation1 ^ y
End With

Looking to find 1 of 2 words in a cell in column B and return the word found in the same row in column E. This seemed easy but I am not having any luck.
the cells in column B have several words in them but I am looking for 2 specific words "PLAT" and "ORIG". If the word is not in the cell, it should show a blank cell in column E in the same row, otherwise one of the 2 words should be in that row in column E. A VBA loop would be ideal but a formula that can do it might work as well.
I am trying to clean up and simplify my macros by compartmentalizing frequently repeated commands. I like to search for text in column headings and define the cell containing it as a range that I can later use .column or .row commands on, so my macros are a bit more flexible. The code I currently use for this is
Dim XColumn As Range ‘the cell containing the text “X”
Cells.Select
Selection.Find(What:="X", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
Set XColumn = ActiveCell
I would like to be able to create a Macro (possibly name FindSetCell()) that will accept arguments and achieve the results of the above code in other macros
I think the command might look something like FindSetCell(“text to be searched for”,”name of newly Defined Range”) But I have not figured out how to code it
I need to mine a huge spreadsheet of about 30,000 cells and make columns from specific words. As in.
I need to search for all words "table" even if the word is "My_table" or "aTable" and suck them into one column. I have to do this one several words.
Let me know if you have the solution. I am trying to write something but I am unsure of the syntax at this level.
There are groups of similar ID numbers in Column J. For a group of similar ID numbers in consecutive rows there is only one row that has a number greater than 0 in its Column L cell and the rest of the cells of Column L for that set of similar IDs is filled with 0s.
First for that unique ID group I need to find out which row is it that has a value greater than zero in its Column L cell.
Then I need to use that value to fill the rest of the 0s in Column L corresponding to that set of Unique IDs.
The process continues with identifying similar IDs in Column J and this time doing the same thing for their Column M. I have attached a sample file that shows the data and how the results need to look like.
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.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write some VBA which will allow me to find certain instances of data across a number of different sheets and copy this into another sheet.
However if the sheet doesn't contain the data I'm searching for an error pops up and the macro dies, is there a way to search where if the macro doesn't find anything it skips to the next line?
Related to my thead here, is there a way that the Find dialog can be automatically closed after the find?

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.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have some EXCEL files, titled as "AAA", "BBB", "CCC", so on... Calculated values are placed in Column Z for each file. In order for me to export the files to another software, I would need to create another new EXCEL file (I call it MASS) and place all the calculated values in that new file. In that new file, the titles have to be on Column A and the calculated values on Column B.
For example, File "AAA" has 120 calculated values. In MASS, the word "AAA" has to appear on Column A a number of 120 times and the 120 calculated values are then placed on Column B. Each value must correspond to the word "AAA". The same procedure goes for "BBB", in which the word "BBB" is placed on Column A after the end of "AAA". What I want to achieve is by using a macro that will look up the title of the Active Worksheet and then scan Column A in MASS. If the title matches whatever is in Column A, then the macro will paste the corresponding calculated values onto Column B automatically.
For example, for file "GGG", the macro will look up the word "GGG", scan through Column A in MASS for the start of the word "GGG" and paste the calculated values at the start of Column B. Could I have an idea of how might the macro looks like?
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.

I am trying to write a match function to return the row of the value I search for. It is properly returning the value of the row I searched for. What I need to know is how do I get it to spit out information in the rest of the row. Here is my code so far:
Sub Rectangle2_Click()
Dim x As Long
Dim Row As Long
' Brings up input box
x = InputBox("Please Enter Tool Information", "Search")
'Exits if nothing is entered in the text box
'If x = "" Then Exit Sub
'MsgBox (SearchString)
'SearchString = x
MsgBox (x)
That gives me a Type mismatch error when I uncomment it out.
Something I was adviced of before in a situation like this way to Concatenate the columns, e.g
=A2&B2&C2&D2&E2&F2
in a far left column (insert 1 if needed).
That was supposed to be so that I can search through multiple columns. When I do that to test it, it never comes up with results. It always comes back as 0 meaning it wasn't found.
If Not stfound Is Nothing Then 'if value is found then do this
is causing me a run time error 424 when I try and run my code "Object required". Entire code is pasted below...

When I use VLOOKUP formula within a VBA routine ex:
For LoopCounter = 1 to LastRow
With Worksheets("0MATERIAL")
.Cells(RowCounter, 5).FormulaR1C1 = "VLOOKUP(RC[-2],'0MAT_UNIT'!R1C1:R65520C12,4,FALSE)"
End With
RowCounter = RowCounter + 1
Next LoopCounter
How can I find out what row or cell address that the VLOOKUP found the data? The above code works perfectly but the problem is I need data from that same row in columns 4-11. I replicated the .Cells line above and made each one a VLOOKUP (for column 4, 5, 6, etc...) but this kills the performance. I have around 32,000 rows in sheet 0MATERIAL and around 50,000 rows within sheet 0MAT_UNIT
I'm looking for a formula, which says if a number is within a range, perform a calculation. I have a table of ranges (0-6000,6001-10000,10000-12000, and so on). My formula looks at the current month cumulative balance, and inserts the value into the line of the range it falls into. However, the formula now contains lots of nested "IF" statements, due to the number of ranges I have. Also, if my cummulative balance is 6005 for example, but was 5005 in the previous month, I would like to see 95 in the 0-6000 row, and 5 in the 6000-10000 row. I making a complete nonsense of trying to explain myself, so I'll attach a quick example of what I'd like to see.

I have the following macro which I've pieced together which works great at clearing the cell as long as the text entered by the user is found in the specified column.
Unfortunately I'm a big rookie with this stuff and I can't figure out how to handle the process/error when an entered value is not found. When ChosenRow returns with a 0 I get a Run time error '91', Object Variable or With Block variable not set.
The code...
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
oldSheet$ = ActiveSheet.Name
Dim ChosenRow As Long
Dim loc As Variant
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
With UserForm4
loc = .TextBox1.Text
End With
With ActiveWorkbook

I have a file that the user selects and when they enter a value (in this case, a job title) into the input box, my macro looks for the value in that file. If the value is there, a msgbox pops up that lets the user know that the value was found and it then goes to that cell, displaying in the next msgbox the cell address of where the value was found. I already have the code down for this part of the macro.
My problem is what happens if the file has the same value more than once. Ideally, I'd like to display a message box that returns the addresses of both cells with the same value and then prompts the user to select one of these values as the value they are looking for. I am not sure if a msgbox or a msgbox and then an input box are most appropriate for this situation. Once the user does this, the macro continues. The rest of my macro is built on the cell where this value is, so it is crucial that I make sure there is at least one value selected. Any help is much appreciated. I have included a sample worksheet of what this situation might look like.
Here is the code I presently have for this part of my macro.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently became owner of a spreadsheet with some issues, and I am trying to make it useful. Each row has a URL of a blog post, and I want to extract the date from it (which is present in each URL) while getting rid of the rest of the URL. I was able to get rid of everything up to the year (which comes first), but then the URL continues, for example, 2013/05/16/the-rest-of-the-url/ and I would like to just have 2013/05/16 remain.
I am trying to use find and replace with the find box reading 2013/??/??/*/ and replacing it with 2013/??/?? which effectively erases everything else in the url, but leaves ?? instead of the numbers. Is there any way to have it so that it keeps whatever was in the original box?
