How To Code Detection Of Varying Equalities In Array
Feb 27, 2014
I have an array and I need to be able to detect when a varying number of consecutive array elements are equal. I want to be able to call the code and give the number of elements I need to find.
The following does not work but illustrate what I am looking for.
[Code] .....
I have been looking at ways of recording the number of equalities in the p loop, but I am sure there is a more elegant way.
I want to load one with data from a worksheet query table that will vary in size each time it's executed. The length will vary, but the range is continuous, and five columns wide. I'd prefer a do while loop, looping until a blank cell is encountered. Can someone get me started with general syntax and setup of the array?
I am attempting to have cells in Column 'U' deliver different drop-down menus based on the corresponding value in column 'D'. I have created 7 named lists:
Those lists will be called up based on 7 values in column “D”: “G” “152” “J” “X” “D/E” “V” “R”
So far I have only been able to get this to work for the first category “G”. When I change the value of column “D” from “G” to “152” I no longer get a drop-down. Here is the formula I am using in the List function of validation.
There are 11,000 rows and 4,000 are unique. The goal is to merge the data down to the 4,000 records. Each of the unique entries shows up 1 to 15 times.
In trying to solve this, I wonder if I should break this down into the different # of occurances and implement specific solutions. e.g., There are
5700 entries that show up 2x 504 that show up 3x 24 that show up 12x
I want to call a macro with a varying name that is within a module with the same name.
I have a module called Test1 and within this, a macro name called test1 I have a module called Test2 and within this, a macro name called test2 etc
On another module called Test8 (with the macro called Test8), this Test8 macro will call either Test1 or Test2 or Test3 etc depending on what I choose in an excel spreadsheet. So on sheet1, cell A1, there is a drop down with the options Test1 or Test2 or Test3 etc.
The following works to run the macro test1 from module test1 (when it does not vary i.e. i physically put in the name of the macro myself):
Sub Test3() Test1.Test1 End Sub
The following works to run the macro test2 from module test2 (when it does not vary i.e. i physically put in the name of the macro myself):
Sub Test3() Test2.Test2 End Sub etc
However, if I try it so that the calling of the macro varies as below , it does not work:
Sub Test3() MacroToCall = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value MacroToCall.MacroToCall End Sub
I have a macro that, at varying places, changes the formatting of adjacent cells. The formatting code is easy to generate via the macro recorder, but it's long - longer than the macro itself - and I'm using it a couple of times (due to if statements). That makes it difficult to read. It's usable, but looks ugly. I'd like to streamline its appearance.
Is there a way to do something like:
Code: If range("F5").Value > 0 then Activecell.Offset(1,0) format = blah ElseIf Range("F5").Value = 0 then Activecell.Offset(-1,0) format = blah End If
The formatting I want is dark gray interior with a border box around it. The macro recorder generated this:
Code: Sub test2() ' ' test2 Macro ' ' With Selection.Interior .Pattern = xlSolid .PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic .ThemeColor = xlThemeColorDark1
I have a spreadsheet that has two different data sources (i.e., A and B). The amounts of these data sources (i.e., the number of columns) varies from sheet to sheet. I have to calculate the averages of these data sources independently and together. Because this data is spread across twenty or more spreadsheets, these calculations can be time-consuming. I want to do the following: 1. Locate the last occurrence of the first data source "A" in row and then insert a column after that cell. 2. In that cell, I want to get the average of each data source for each row of data (i.e., there are always 19 rows of data). I want to do the same two steps for the second data source "B". Then, I want to insert a column after the "B" average and this column will be used to get an average of each row of data from A and B together. Please keep in mind that the number of data sources for A and B varies from sheet to sheet. So far, I am working on code to try to " find" the text in a range (i.e., find the last instance of "A"), but I cannot figure out how to get it to get it to stop at the last occurrence and then insert a column. I have some ideas about how to calculate the average, but any of yours are much appreciated. Also, the row with the type of data (i.e., A or B) is named because this function is part of a larger macro. Therefore, it is relatively easy to get to it. I have attached a version of the file that displays how I want it to look. The code I have thus far is:
I have built up quite a few macros for automating functions in some spreadsheets, and I want to start being able to detect when errors occur. Right now I just have the function or sub terminate itself if an error occurs, but that just returns control to the calling sub/function.
I need a way to detect if an error occurs, and immedatly terminate the whole process so that it does not continue and make eronious changes further down the line.
I had thought of declaring a pubic boolean variable that i could flip if an error occurs, but I am not sure how to detect this flip without programing in an if statement every time i call a function.
Question1: Is there a way to write a function/sub that will automaticly triger if a public variable becomes a certain value?
Question2: How do I unload a macro (terminate it) from a public function? I have found that for user forms, the Unload Me command does not work in a public function. I suspect this is becasue the function is not directly attached to a form.
i have a workbook system that is used on 25 standalone machines that all have different printers everytime i install on a new system i have to reconfigure all of the printers that i have set up in VBA i am curious to find out as to whether or not there is a macro i can use that will generate a list of all printers on a machine that i can then use to refrence a printer name in my VBA
I have a spreadsheet that grows rapidly each day of addresses I service. Duplicates are not welcome. When the spreadsheet was smaller, I would type in an address and if it was a duplicate, Excel would auto fill the cell with the duplicate data. Now that the rows are over 2000, I wanted to see if this primitive method for weeding out duplicates was still working, however when I type the first address I have in cell A1, it does not auto fill in A2001, even though it is a duplicate.
Is there any way to have on-the-spot detection of duplicates sans macro?
The code in the file works but, I wonder if you could comment and suggest an improvement to the code in the attached file. With the generous help of good folks on this site, I have developed a code to use in my workbook (a sample is attached). Before I use it I would like to be sure that it will not generate any errors.
I am trying to populate many arrays with the same code using something like this. For this test, assume the following data in A1.
1 2 3 4 5
6 7 8 9 10
11 12 13 14 15
16 17 18 19 20
21 22 23 24 25
Code: Sub populate() Dim firstArr(5), secondArr(5), thirdArr(5), fourthArr(5), fifthArr(5) As Integer Dim r, c, num As Integer
[Code]....
The above code does not work of course and falls over. I am unsure whether I should try and concatenate with something like this eg "" & arrName(i) = Cells (r,c) or go down a different route.
Background: I have 3 lists. List 1 is a column of unique identifiers. List 2 is a column of unique identifiers. List three is supposed to contain as many rows as the number of rows in List 1 * the number of rows in List 2. Each row in List three has as its unique identifier a value from List 1 concatenated with a value from List 2.
What my problem is: I want to determine, when looking at each row in list 1, if there is an corresponding entry in list 3 for every row in list 2.
Months ago I ever posted the following code on Mr. Excel forum but did not get satisfied solutions. Right now slightly changed the code and post here.
I have the following code running on Excel 2000 for many years. Now I just switched to Excel 2003 version and found the code does not work well: It refused to do replace function. Does Excel 2003 version need some additional consideration?
Sub SSRe() Dim CommVolArray As Variant Dim CommAssArray As Variant Dim MyWorkbook As Workbook
I need this for VB code, for an array that is the product of another macro hence it's dynamic.
B 3 E 2 E 8 D 2 B 1 B 7 How do I subtotal Col A,B according to Col A? Total 3 B entries with a subtotal of 11 Total 2 E entries with a subtotal of 10 Total 1 D entry with a subtotal of 2
I have been trying to take a variant array that has 6 columns, output it to a new worksheet (although I would prefer to just sort the array but can't get that working - how I can do this please feel free), sort the worksheet by 2 different columns, and then move these values back into the original array. I think I have the dumping and sorting down but I can't figure out the putting back into the array part. Here is the code I have thus far. varRecords is the array I am dumping to the new worksheet.
I am trying to find an item within an array and then VBA could execute code.
Here is an example:
[Code]....
LookupItems =("text", "value", "book") or should I acutally be using Split("text,value,book",",")
For Each sht in ThisWorkbook If sht.name = array(LookupItems) Then.....execute code
[Code] ....
So basically in this example I want to loop through all the sheet names in the workbook and if any of the names in the arrary are found it will execute the code for those particular sheet names.
I know alternatives are the select case or write an if statement for each value I am looking up or even use an OR for each value to lookup; but I just wanted to see if this method was even possible as it would be less coding.
I have created an array in Excel VBA 2003 and successfully loaded it with values. The array variable is called "Week". I am currently getting the sum of the numbers in the array by creating a dim variable that adds them statically one at a time:
Dim finalvalue As Integer finalvalue = week(1) + week(2) + week(3)
That works, except as time goes on there are more weeks and I need to dynamically add all the values together in one fell swoop.
I'm writing a macro that will pull a set of dates from a worksheet and put them into an array. Then I want to find the max date in the array (most likely using some sort of sorting method).
The code below is how I'm putting the dates into an array. I'm not sure if using the date data type is best. I can't tell how it will sort the information. Is there an easy way to find the maximum of an array of dates?
Dim Date_Array() As Date If Sheets("Sheet1"). Range("N" & i) = "Date" Then j = j + 1 Redim Preserve Date_Array(j)
Basically, I'm trying to alter the code by inserting another condition where if S12 = R than it will exclude the value found in D12, other wise D12 is included. It was initally setup with a range of $C12:$H12 but i had to write it out long to exclude $D12
I have a macro that works but was wondering if there is an easier way to shorten up the part of the code that is very repetitive with an array or ? Nothing I have tried works except the code below.
Code: Sub ClearAndReset() Dim WS1 As Worksheet Set WS1 = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Stocks") WS1.Unprotect Application.EnableEvents = False With WS1
How can I write a piece of code to initialise an array with all the worksheet names. I cannot be sure how many worksheets will be in the file as it generates different numbers each time.
I used to just declare with sheet names, but I can no longer do that.
I'm currently trying to compare all of my companies data sources for staff, ie helpdesk, telephony, ldap etc. and I have made quite a bit of progress, mostly thanks to this forum, however one issue I am running into, is the fact that when I use the text to columns funtion (in a macro) it's splitting up names which are double barrelled into 3 columns. The names are in the format of...
