Secondly, I am struggling to find a solution to something that in PHP, Java and javascript is painfully simple! That is - checking to see if an array contains no elements.
In PHP for example, you can do:
PHP Code:
$arr = array();echo empty($arr)."
";echo (sizeof($arr) == 0)."
";
This will produce the following output:
Code:
1
1
But ... I can't seem to find any equivalent of empty or sizeof in VBA.
I have data in Row 53 that spans 7 columns, but stays in the same row. I want to design a loop to select every 7th cell in that row and check if it is empty. If not, add onto a "counter" then display the final number of occupied cells (the value of the counter) at the end. This is what I have so far, but I get all sorts of errors.
Code:
Sub Tester()
Dim WB As Workbook
Dim WS As Worksheets
Dim modCounter As Long
Dim Cell As Range
Set WB = Workbook("Transverse Series.xlsm")
Set WS = WB.Sheets(BM18)
[Code] ......
I have a table in excel range B5:M32 with the top two rows containing merged cells (B5:M6). I need to write a macro to copy data from cells B38:C38 into the above table.
I need the macro to first check to see if there is any data already entered i.e. check if the table is empty. If it is empty then paste the cells in the first cell (B7). If the table already has data entered i need to move to the last entry then move down one cell and paste the copied cells.
I have figures out the copying/pasting functions but am struggling with the part to check if the table is empty and moving down the table without using cell references.
I have a number of worksheets, each sheet is set up like a data entry form, at the bottom of which is a command button that takes them to the next worksheet based on a value in a cell. what i want to do is before it takes them to the next worksheet it checks a selection of cells, if any of which are blank it shows an error message and wont allow them to continue, better still the cell that is blank it high lights with a red border.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have this code here, which run's fine, if I don't include the red line. The red code, should do the following: If the "D" Column and/or the "E" columns k-th cell have no value then it should increase the k by one. If theres a cell in "D" or in "E" (or in both of them) which have a value in it then it should start the "EXECUTING COMMANDS" part.
Code:
...
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = wb.Sheets(1)
...
Do While ws.Range("A" & k).Value ""

But this won't start too after processing the do while line. How this .value command works.
see attached spreadsheet, if you copy cells from K3 to N92 into A3 to D92, data will be automatically shown up in columns F to I.
But there's a problem, whenever there's a cell contains 0% in col B-D, the corresponding cell in col G-I will be empty which affects the calculation therafter, can anyone help on this?
I need to check wether there is an empty cell in the Selection using the code below insted of using For Each c in the selection

Range(Range("H3"),Range("H20").End(xlDown)).Select
If IsEmpty (Range(Range("H3"),Range("H20").End(xlDown))) Then
Msgbox "There is Empty Cell"
End If
how to check the column has any contents or not?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHow can I write code to test if a cell is blank? My code is using "isempty" but I keep type mismatch error because my cells are filled with formulas that make the cells blank. It only works if the cells are truly empty with no formulas.

I need to abort the macro if the active cell is empty.
I've tried:
If ActiveCell.Value = "" Then Exit Sub
and
If IsEmpty(ActiveCell) Then Exit Sub
but neither work. I've found other solutions that test for a particular cell (A1 for example), but I need to be able to test the active cell, which may be any cell on the worksheet.
Trying to look at cell I2 to see if it's blank, has the current expiration date of 9/1/2014, or has an earlier expiration date.
I'm entering in K2 the following: IF(I2="","",IF(I2="9/1/2004","OWES","C")) At this point if the cell is blank it will show blank in K2 but if there is a date it always shows C.
I have an if statement as follows:
If IsEmpty(Range(Cells(iCurrentRow, iFirstDataColumn), Cells(iCurrentRow, iTotalCol)))
Then
i did a select to make sure it was selecting the whole range I want and it works fine:
Range(Cells(iCurrentRow, iFirstDataColumn), Cells(iCurrentRow, iTotalCol)).Select
Inside my range I can have cells with 0s in them and cells with nothing in them. What I would like my if statement to do is return true ONLY when ALL cells have nothing in them. At the moment, even if I have 0's in some cells, it's returning false.
I need to figure out how to tell if the sheet is empty with the exception of the header row that resides in Row 1. I have looked though the archieves, tried about 10 - 15 possible solutions, only for one thing or another to go wrong.
What this does is, if the data sheet is empty except the header, I need it to report that the user must add data. I have it checking row 1 column 1 but thats the header, and row 2 column 1 may or maynot contain data..
So if row two is empty then report that the sheet is empty, sans the header.
Sheet name = Data
Row 1 has header
Row 2 competely empty?
I dont know if after you search it will let you enter Xl. I had already search the threads and can't explain with out using XlUp.
Sheets("Input Data"). Range("D6:AO505", Worksheets("Input Data").Range("D510").End(xlUp)).Copy Sheets("Matrix").Range("B52")
But Sometimes there will be no data in the range and this code will copy the row above the array D5:AO5 and paste in the Matrix2 range B52 which is the catalist for a cascade of errors. The only thing I can think of is to use named ranges - But a this stage when the calculations fallover - well a little anoying
im having a little trouble writing a macro to :
check if a7:t7 is empty, if so delete a6:t7 and change cell colour of a6:t7 to 'no fill'
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.
I have a spreadsheet that uses IF(C5>J5,(EDATE(C5,12)),(EDATE(J5,12)))__ IF(J9<D9,(D9-$N$1)) where N1 is current date. If C5 and J5 are empty how do I get it to ignore the formula and just leave the other cells blank?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe application reads in a file, whcih can have various formats. To check which format it's in, I plan to look for certain empty fields/ cells. I can successfully detect a group of empty cells by explicitly testing each one, but when I put them all in a range and test that, the check fails. So far I've reduced the problem to the following example code.
Sub check_clear()
Range("g1:g8").clear
If IsEmpty(Range("a1")) Then
Range("g2") = "A1 empty"
End If
If IsEmpty(Range("b1")) Then
Range("g3") = "B1 empty"
End If
If IsEmpty(Range("c1")) Then
Range("g4") = "C1 empty"
End If
If IsEmpty(Range("d1")) Then
Range("g5") = "D1 empty"
End If..............
The result is that each individual cell check results in the relevant "XX empty" message. However, the test that the range of multiple cells is empty never produces a result. I'd really like to understand the underlying reason - as well as find out how to perform an isEmpty test on a range. I'm looking more for guidance and insight than a canned solution
I've got a list and I need to check if the adjacent cells for a column are empty or not, and if both are empty then format to a certain color. I have a solution but don't know how to implement it into a format fit for conditional formatting.
I have this in the new rule section of conditional formatting
=IF(AND(ISBLANK(OFFSET(I4,0,-1)),(ISBLANK(OFFSET(I4,0,1))),(ISBLANK(I4)=FALSE)),TRUE,FALSE)
If conditional formatting would allow it I would simply change I4 to the entire range, I am very much confused as to how to format this cell to work with conditional formatting. (I4 is the first cell in the list)
Something else is that if I change I4 to I5 or something then moves all the highlighted cells around, and to top it off the first few cells which should obviously be highlighted aren't, even though the rest of the cells which should be highlighted are.
If I have say several hundred elements stored in an indexed array and I want to clear them each time the sub or function holding them is called, is there a way to erase the contents of the entire array without having to loop through each element.
Something like array().clear? Note that each time the sub is called, they are also redimed to some reference.
I'm trying to write a function that I can pass an array along with the data I want added to that array. The function will resize the array, put the data into it and return the new array. Example:
Function AddNewDataToArray(MyArray As Variant, Arg1 As String, Arg2 As String, Arg3 As String) As Variant
'If no elements have been added
Redim Preserve MyArray(1 To 3, 1 To 1)
'Add the first record of data to the array.
'If there is already data in the array
Redim Preserve MyArray(1 To 3, 1 To UBound(MyArray, 2))
'Add the next record of data to the array
End Function
As 2 dimensional arrays are Base 1, the challenge I have is getting it to resize (redim preserve) the array when it has to add the first record. I thought I could just use an IsArray function to test if there had been any data added. If not, then it would run the following...........
Right now I am writing a macro with a defult action if an arry is empty. Unfortunatly the way I wanted to do it will not work becuse it can't recognize the difference between one entry in the array and no entries:
If LBound(array) = UBound(array) Then
I am using a Uderform in order to check if some cells in several columns are higher or lower than values I set in my textboxes.
However, I think I am having a mistake in my code (it runs but doesnt return the correct informations) as I have blank cells in certain columns.
Concretely I am giving 1 point if the criteria is valid (if for example the value in the cell is <= 1) but some of these criteria are 1 when they should be 0.
As I said it runs but I need to add a fix for empty cells / blank cells and if possible N/A error cells in this so that the code gives 0 to the criteria and moves to the next column (next select case)..
I have an excel document with hundreds of columns. Each column should not be empty; they must have at least one value. Right now I'm applying a filter and going through each column one by one to make sure that it is not empty. How can I perform this check without having to go through each column one by one?

I have an array MyArr() in excel.
Its length is from 1 to i where i takes dynamic value from varibable.
Now the problem is MyArr(1 to i) has some empty values.

MyArr(2) = ""
MyArr(3) = "b"
MyArr(4) = ""
MyArr(5) = "c"

Is there a way that I can check for the occurance of a specific value in a collection object like an Array or a Range in excel through VBA code?
