Using VBA the code creates a string variable containing multiple column references. I need to select the column references stored in the variable, then hide them. I know I can hide the columns individually but would like to use a variable.
Sub ColumnHide()
e.g. "B:B,F:F"etc.
For ColTest = 1 To 26
If Cells(1, ColTest) = 1 Then
counter = counter + 1
If counter > 1 Then
HideString = HideString & ","
End If
HideString = HideString + Chr(ColTest + 64) & ":" & Chr(ColTest + 64)
End If
Next ColTest
Columns(HideString).Select ' *** !!! ERROR IN VAR REF !!!
Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = True
End Sub
Say you define a public range variable called Inputworksheet and you set it to refer to the worksheet called Inputworksheet. You have a separate string variable with the value Inputworksheet. How do you get this string variable value to call/control the range variable Inputworksheet?
I am getting an excel worksheet value from a lookup function that corresponds to the name of a VBA range variable. Once I have this worksheet value, I would like to use the range variable that has the same name as the worksheet value.
Code: Dim workround As Integer workround = 0 in one of my sheets worksheet_change I have
Code: If workround = 0 then
when I get to this I get the Variable not defined error. I am using this to bypass some code that does not always need to be run (it slows the workbook down). So I also have another piece of code that toggles workround from 0 to 1.
I have a feeling this error has something to do with Option Explicit. But My limited understanding is obviously insufficient to know what is happening or how to fix it. As I believe that I have defined the variable within the workbook_open code.
New to VBA and just trying to make some edits to some existing code. I have basically copied a pre-existing form and module and changed names from "Appendix" to "Drawing" as I am trying to replicate what the piece of code already produces for a table of appendices, for my drawings.
However, when I try and run the form I get Compile error: Variable not defined with lstDrawings highlighted.
[Code] ...........
Is this something that should be defined in my global module which I am missing?
The following code has been used previously to enter data from a userform to a worksheet without a problem. However, since I added some new bits of code I am getting a compile error with the message variable not defined.
Here is part of what I have so far and the bit that is highlighted after the error comes up is the 'Set ws' line;
Code: Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Worksheets("Duties").Range("C5") = txtdate Worksheets("Duties").Range("H5") = txtarea Worksheets("Duties").Range("N5") = txttea Set ws = Worksheets("Duties") 'find first empty row in database iRow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, 1) _ .End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
The code I have recently added:
Code: Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() Set wsRes = Worksheets("Resources") With wsRes .Range("B1", .Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).AdvancedFilter xlFilterCopy, , .Range("L1"), True With .Range("L2", .Range("L" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)) cboTeam.List = .Value .EntireColumn.Clear
I am creating a UserForm to get macro running options from the user. The Workbook__Open calls the macro which shows the UserForm right after the variables are defined. Is there a way to avoid the compile error?
I've used Excel for many years, but finally am learning VBA, using Excel Progamming for Dummies by John Walkenbach. Excel is version 2000.
I've searched extensively on Google and on the MrExcel site for the solution to my problem, but still haven't found it . Any direction would be most appreciated.
I'm trying to execute the examples in the book, and have gotten the error message "Compile error: Variable not defined" with "MyString =" highlighted with several of the examples. Could someone please tell me where I'm going astray?
Following is the latest subroutine I typed into the module, from page 124:
Option Explicit
Sub GetLength() MyString = "Hello World" StringLength = Len(MyString) MsgBox StringLength End Sub
It works as a regular Module but when I put it into a "Private Sub" for a button its not working.
Basically I have a master sheet that I create Tests from. I push a button and it creates a Test for others to take. I want the macro to transfer from the Master to these so when they are done I can press a button and upload the answers to a tracking sheet.
It errors on the strSecondFile
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim wbk As Workbook Dim NAME As String
'strFirstFile = ActiveWorkbook strSecondFile = Application.GetOpenFilename Set wbk = ActiveWorkbook 'Workbooks.Open(strFirstFile) NAME = Range("A6").Value
I came across a weird situation using a standard print macro. One of my users could not use the print macro due to a compile error. The row that was highlighted was
.PrintErrors = xlPrintErrorsDisplayed
the error states that the variable is not defined. I removed that line of code and everything prints fine.
I tested this code out on excel 97 and it worked; is this sensitive to OS version? Will leaving this line of code effect anything big?
I keep getting a "complie error: variable not defined" and I am not sure why (the error highlights the first instance of "sh"). Any feedback? I am trying to test a value of a cell for each row and if the row meets the test then it increases the value in another cell by 1.
I have been using the workbook with the calendar form for ages, but now when i click on the date field to invoke the calender it come out with the comple error:Variable not defined. Here is the piece of code
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() If IsDate(ActiveCell.Value) Then Calendar1.Value = DateValue(ActiveCell.Value) Else Calendar1.Value = Date End If End Sub
I am attempting to use the Find and Replace code you assisted with me into another project, But I am missing something. I keep getting a Variable not define error when I go to search for a CMM # in the add a referral form.
I have created a userform that once the user clicks the okay button, the information is transferred to a worksheet template named 'PO Template', copied, and renamed. That portion works great. I then have code for a summary worksheet named 'PO Log' that finds the next empty row on the log and enters a formula referencing back to the newly created 'PO Form' (note - 'PO Form' is a variable as the actual worksheet name changes with the user input). The formula on the 'PO Log' references the 'PO Form' literally, which gives me a REF! error because there is no sheet actually named that. I've tried defining POForm in the code as a string so I can enter it into the formula code but I get an error because it's already defined as a variable. I've entered the sub routine for clicking the okay button below:
Code: Sub OkayButton_Click() 'Make PO Template Active Sheets("PO Template").Activate
I am currently working in an application in which I use the following user defined types:
Public Type correlationstruct corr As Variant corrstd As Variant lower As Variant upper As Variant support As Variant End Type
I have a public variable called myctafund, of type ctafund:
Public myctafund As ctafund
My problem is the following: When I need to update myctafund, I first want to clean it entirely before putting new values, so as to be sure older values do not stick around (I do not necessarily overwrite all the values of the mycta type).I can't figure out a way of clearing the entire myctafund variable in one shot. I tried:
myctafund=empty
but I am granted by a nasty excel error. I'd like to avoid writing 200 lines of code just to clean the entire variable.
I am trying to put two subs into a macro. They work individually, but when I put them together, I get a "Compile Error: Variable Not Defined" Message. I was told I have to define the variable in the sub multipleif(), but I am not certain as to how to do this. The error message highlights the line I have bolded below.
VB: Option Explicit Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim mth As Variant, txt As Variant, des As Variant, wdt As Variant, I, Cell
I have a worksheet named "ABC". In row 4 of this worksheet, each cell from G to BG is numbered from 1 onwards and each cell has a unique number. I would like to have a macro ask the user through a pop-up question box which column data should be calculated in. For example, if the user types "1" in the question box, the macro will go to column G which has "1" in cell G4 and will select G5 the cell just below the column the user defined and calculate the formula.
- In each row, pops up a Warning Dialog Box if the amount of letters in column "J" doesn't match the # defined in column "B"? - Preferably this would pop up the Dialog Box as soon as the error occurs (so it's always running)
Two Exceptions: - Does not look at Rows 1 & 2 - Does not look at Rows where column B = 0 or null
to assign a variable to equal a Constant variable, then I need to find the last unused row on the worksheet, then paste that variable down the column (1-12200 or so rows). I also need to assign Strings for the first two Rows in the target column.
regarding excel formula for summing of data in my list, please refer to my attached sample file, that allows me to define particular column when it ends? In this sample, cut-off should be B16 with criteria at B17 thus B18 should give Beta's Sum total ColB to ColG. I've tried to use "sumif" with "if" but I don't how to start constructing it. And how about for two criteria? (Sumproduct). Or any idea the ends up with same result.
I have a spreadsheet which contains our fleet information covering many vehicles in one list. The teams for these vehicles are listed in Column A. What I would like to have is:
A dropdown box to pick from All, or the various teams in A1To hide every row that doesn't match the selection of A1To reveal every row that contains the selection for A1 at any point in column A. e.g: "*Dog Team*"
This is because something might be listed as "Moved from Dog Team" or "Dog Team, temporarily on loan", or "Dog Team V66.m"
I have taken a small sample of the data I will be working from and made a very simple drop down box which displays the pages of information for the vehicles by hiding/unhiding blocks of columns:
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Address = "$A$2" Then If Range("A2") = "MOT/Service" Then ActiveSheet.Columns("A:P").EntireColumn.Hidden = False ActiveSheet.Columns("Q:CE").EntireColumn.Hidden = True ElseIf Range("A2") = "Contact Details" Then
[Code]....
But because there is also filters on the sheet, meaning the positions of the entries based on rows can change, I need it to search for the "*xyzzy*" method, but am unsure how to do this! While just using the Filters will work, due to some human limitations I have been asked to have a specific drop down box in a very specific location with instructions next to it.
