Good Way To Reset Variable Each Loop To Empty?

Apr 15, 2012

I'm using a variable to loop down a column of data. Each time it loops the variable may or may not perform an operation - it will if there is something in the cell but won't if the cell is empty. It writes the answer of the operation to an ajoining cell, before looping again.

The issue is that if the row cell is empty, what's written to the ajoining cell is the pre-existing value of the variable, because its value hasn't changed.

how best to 'empty' the variable each loop to ensure either that the correct value or nothing at all is written to the ajoining cell?

Reset For Loop On Each Iteration?

Jul 2, 2014

I want to iterate a For Loop changing one variable each iteration until the Total from the For Loop equals zero. Each iteration of the Do Loop keeps the previous Total from the For Loop and adds it. How do I reset the For Loop to start from Total = 0 at the beginning of the For Loop?

Sub PV_IRR()
Discount_Rate = Range("A2")
Total_Investment = Range("B2")
Annual_Return = Range("C2")

Reset Variables For Each Pass Through For Loop

Jun 27, 2014

I am having trouble defining a variable in a For loop. When I run the loop the first time everything seems to work fine, but when the loop goes back through the second time it carries its previous value with it. Here in lies the problem if the variable is supposed to be empty (not assigned a value). So, for example: 'Variable' in the code below may or may not be given a value depending on the conditions in the For i loop. If it is given a value then 'Variable' will still have that value on the next pass through the For j loop. And if none of the conditions are met for the If statement in the For i loop the second time through the For j loop, it should be an empty variable, but instead the code is reading it as having a value (from the previous pass through the For j loop).

[Code] .....

I have tried using:

[Code] .....

After the For j line, and instead of using:

[Code] ....

I tried using:

[Code] ....

and I've tried:

[Code] .....

I get an Object error with either line I use. I just want to be able to reset the variables each time through the For j loop so in the case of an empty variable, it doesn't try to calculate based on the previous value.

Loop Macro To Check If Cells Not Empty

Jun 27, 2014

Column 'N' and 'O' will be used for inputting information and will never be hidden

Column 'E' through 'F' hold information, however the user will have hidden all but one of columns 'E' through 'F' before running macro

Once the user initiates the macro, the program will detect which column in 'E' through 'F' is not hidden

The macro will then start at row one of the unhidden column and loop down looking for the text 'Req' (not including ' )

If the loop finds 'Req' it will search in column 'N' of the same row for any data at all
If it finds data in column 'N' for that particular row, it will check column 'O' of that same row for any data at all
If it finds data in column 'O' also, then all 3 parameters have been met

The loop should continue checking for these 3 items through row 500

If the loop determines that for every 'Req' found in the unhidden row there is data in the corresponding column 'N' and 'O' a message will appear that says 'Checklist Complete"

Upon closing the message box, the file should save and then exit

If the loop determines that for every 'Req' found in the unhidden row, there is not always data present in column 'N' and 'O' the message box should appear and say 'Checklist Incomplete'

In the same message box, it should provide a list under 'Checklist Incomplete' that provides the text found in column 'D' for each row where it failed the test of having 'Req' in the unhidden row and data at all in column 'N' and 'O'

That last part will give the user a tool to see where they might have forgotton to enter data.

Offset Repeat Loop Until Empty Cell

Aug 14, 2008

I would like click in cell a6 and then click a button loaded with VBA code that would:

1. Offset over 2 and down 1 to c7 so that is the current cell
2. Repeat down until an empty cell is reached (our example will be c10)
3. Put the items found in c7, c8, c9 into a variable (is that right?)

Variable would then be used in a vba generated email that I have all ready to go. I would want each item placed in the email one after the other like:

Name
Date
Phone

Ending Loop When Cell Is Empty But Has Formula In It

Oct 7, 2008

I have a do while loop that runs until the reference cell is empty. This has been working but now I have changed the reference cells somewhat so that the cells contain a formula that returns nothing if a function returns 0 or an error. So the cell has no value but it does have a formula in it. The do while loop keeps running because it thinks that the cell has something it it.

Do While Cells(i, 2) ""

Is there something else that i can put for "" to get the loop to stop when cell contains no value but a formula.

Variable Returning Empty Value?

Mar 8, 2013

I have been trying to register a macro and modify it. That was supposed to autofilter a table by date between values contained in 2 cells (start date & end date).

I declared variables for that, but for some reason, value returned are Emty (date 00:00:00).

Do you see something wrong in this small code?

Sub Filter()
Dim fDate As Date
Dim lDate As Date
fDate = Range("B1")
lDate = Range("B2")
Range("B3:I3").Select
Selection.AutoFilter
ActiveSheet.Range("$B$3:$I$99").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:= _

Loop Through Selected Worksheets And Hide Empty Rows On Each?

I have a workbook with over 70 tabs whose position shouldn't be changed. Some of these tabs are colored in yellow (sorting by tab color is not allowed). I need to select these yellow tabs first and loop through them (only yellow tabs) and hide empty rows in the range of A1: G 50 on each of them. Grouping sheets wwon't work because each tab has different last row with data within that range.

Loop Checking And Moving Data If Cell Is Not Empty

Mar 12, 2007

in writing a loop that will check a number of cells to see if it is emtpy, if it is not, then run the macro. If the cells are not empty it will copy the data in that row and paste it to another sheet and delete that line. If it hits a cell that is empty, i want it to skip that row and move on to the next row.

here is the macro that moves the data.
Sub movedata()

Range("A1:H1").Select
Selection.Copy

ActiveSheet.Paste
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp

Using Same Variable From One Loop To Another?

Mar 14, 2014

I have a lot of loops, but they are not necessarily nested within each other. Is it possible for me to use the same variable if those loops are not nested.

For example, something like this:

Dim a As Integer

For a=1 To 5

[Lines of code]

Next a

Then I want to just continue using "a" in other loops:

For a=12 To 100

[Lines of new code]

Next a

This way, I don't have to create a new variable every time. Would this be okay? Or is it hard on the memory?

Incorporating Variable Into Loop

Jun 29, 2013

I'm trying to use loop to activate 3 workbooks "OSB1", "OSB2", and "OSB3" and their respective sheets. "OSB1" has sheet "OSB1" in it, workbook "OSB2" has sheet "OSB2" in it etc.

The digit on the end of each OSB is the variable I am using in the loop.

What I am trying to come out with is the following 3 workbooks and sheets being activated:

OSB1.Sheets("OSB1").Activate
OSB2.Sheets("OSB2").Activate
OSB3.Sheets("OSB3").Activate

I've given up the code as I can't work out the inverted commas:

VB:
Dim x As Integer
For x = 1 To 3
OSB" & x & ".Sheets("OSB" & x & "").Activate
Next x

Is it possible to do this at all? The bit after "Sheets" is correct. It's part with the first "x" after the first "OSB" which is incorrect now...

( In my actual code I'm trying to do more than just activate the 3 sheets but need to work out the syntax for this to be able to edit the remainder).

Formulas To Occupy All Rows. Good Or Bad?

Jul 2, 2008

Cell A1 can have only 0 or 1. Cell B1 can have any numeric value. Cell C1 takes the value of B1 if A1 is 1, otherwise it is 0. So, C1's formula can be either "=A1*B1" or "=If(A1=0,0,B1)". Lets say this formula is continued down to the 65000th row. My question is which formula is faster? The first one or the second one?

VBA: How To Program A Changing Variable Name In A Loop

May 20, 2006

Trying to code my first custom VBA function. The function is supposed to translate the words in a cell by repeatedly looping through the string and looking through a list of provided translation words.

Problem is the variable name changes with each loop, and I can't figure out how to program the name change.

Function TestTranslate(TranslateCell, ProductCell) As String

Dim t As Long
Dim TranslateCeiling As Long
Dim SS1 As String
Dim SS As String
Dim Q, R As String
Dim W As String
Dim LLRString, MLRString, SLRString As String
Dim LRString, MRString, SRString As String
Dim TArray() As String

Looks like the loop keeps defining Q as "SS" & t instead of doing the select case formula. I tried removing the Q variable altogether and making it read just "SS" & t = Replace(R, LLRString, LRString) for example and keep getting a compile error.

Macro To Go To A Hidden Worksheet. Good/Bad Idea?

Feb 22, 2010

I have an excel document displaying graphs that i would like to link to from a menu page (via a number of buttons). The problem is that i have about 12 of these graph sheets (along with 8 other sheets) and i'd rather not have them cluttering up the worksheet tabs list at the bottom of the screen.

Does anyone have any suggestions about how to handle this? Is a macro to open a hidden sheet and then close it once it is navigated away from a reasonable option? Or does Excel protocol suggest that they should remain visible, despite their cluttering..

Aggregate Number Of Good And Bad Results Per User On Different Sheet

Jul 4, 2014

I have a database file where users name can be located in 2 neighbor columns. Against each user name (in next 2 cells on the right) there is a evaluation (good or bad).That database will be growing and new additions will be added each month. That means one user can appear several times on a different row with different evaluation.

In the same file I have a separate sheet where I need after running a macros to have aggregated list of users (in one column) and against each user I would like to see how many how many good and bad score he have. It will be good if users are sorted in alphabetical order.

I am providing an attachment with example file.

Loop The Procedure With The Variable Number Included In The Checkbox Name

Nov 21, 2006

I'm creating a user form that will have 10 checkboxes on it. Depending upon certain conditions being met elsewhere in the workbook, I would like to populate the checkboxes' captions with data from the workbook.

My question is, can I loop the procedure with the variable number included in the checkbox name (well, more to the point, HOW can I loop the procedure...)?

I would like to do something like this:

Dim a As Integer

For a = 1 To 10

With Worksheets("Hi-Tech")

If .Cells(a + 1, 2).Value "" Then
chkHiTech & a.Enabled = True
chkHiTech & a.Caption = .Cells(a+1, 2).Value
lblHiTech & a.Enabled = True
lblHiTech & a.Caption = .Cells(a+1, 2).Value
etc.

Macro Loop To Check Several Conditions And With Variable Increments

Oct 20, 2006

Excel file attached! I need a macro to do the following:

Start with cell F4 and read the increment value from cell C4. Then add this with F3 and display the result. Continue with the same increment until it reaches the value equal to cell B4. Then read the increment from cell C5 and do the same until value equals cell B5. Repeat the same step until it reach the value equals B7. I did manually in the column F4 to F28. Moreover, the cell increment will change according to the variable in A2. In this case it is 25 and got 25 values to fill the column R.

Looping: Run The First Macro An Error Pops Up Saying That A Variable Within The Loop Is Not Set

Mar 27, 2007

the following code should determine whether the searched value can be found in more than just one row and than enlist certain values from each of those rows in ComboBox4 using a loop. Then I have a second macro which would assign appropriate values from a Sheet to other text boxes whenever one changes the value of the ComboBox4:

Private Sub ComboBox2_Change()
Dim vFind
Dim Firstaddress
Dim rFound As Range
Dim wsName As String
Dim SrchRng As Range
wsName = Me.ComboBox1.Value
With Worksheets(wsName)
vFind = UserForm2.ComboBox2.Value
Set rFound = .Range("B1")
Set SrchRng = .Range("B:B")
Option Explicit
End With...............................

While trying to run the first macro an Error pops up saying that a variable within the loop is not set. I've got no idea how to fix it
