Compare Sheet1 With Sheet2 And Copy Unique Values In Sheet1
Aug 13, 2014I am using the below code and it is not performing the operations of comparing and deleting the duplicate values from sheet1 and pasting unique values in sheet 1, p.s. Do not need values from sheet 2, just want to compare the sheet 1 with 2 and delete dups in sheet1.

Use Of 'Sheet1.Select'
Apr 25, 2006I've read on this forum before that it's possible to use expressions such as:
Sheet1.Select
...instead of:
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
The first of these has the advantage in that it is independent of the name of the sheet. It simply refers to the first sheet created in that workbook and, if deleted, it cannot be recreated. However, I seem to encounter errors whenever I try and use this approach.

VBA Random Name Select
Dec 12, 2012I have been thinking about a name selection tool that would automatically pick a few names for internal audit. I can handle the useform launch and other basics but here is what I see happening.
1. The empname! sheet contains a list of all the company employees, with employee number in column A, names in column B and an "X" or blank in column C.
2. The main sheet called auditmaster! contains nothing currently
3. When the code is ran the userform prompts the user to select how many individuals to audit by entering an integer in a textbox.
4. If the user selects 5 for instance, the code will run and will select 5 random employees for internal audit. It does this by first checking column A of the empname! sheet and seeing what the highest and lowest numbers are. This would create the range for the random function.
Next if there is an "X" in column C of empname! sheet, those employees numbers are excluded from the random choice.
Following this the function will select the appropriate number of individuals to audit using random again and place their names/number on the masteraudit! sheet.
The detail should be placed as the following, employee number goes to column F, name to column G. Starting with row 10. The code should also number the results 1 - however many were selected for audit in column E.

Dec 10, 2007I have an excel sheet attached that I would like to customise to become a random seat picker. I wanted it to select a random cell representing a seat and highlight that cell in someway (e.g. change the background colour or text colour) and display the data within in in a cell in the middle of the sheet.
I have used formula to achieve the later half of the problem but am unsure how to highlight the cell. my current solution uses f9 to refresh the data. Ideally I would like to attach the behaviour to a command button. I have attached the excell sheet and have highlighted the problems I am having.
Random Function On Select Range?
Mar 14, 2014I would like to use the random function on a range of select numbers. I tried randbetween() but it won't work for me since my range of numbers are not in sequence (e.g. 1,2,4,6,7,8,9,10,21). Using randbetween() might result in numbers not within my range..

Feb 8, 2009I'm trying to select an x number of random selections within the selection.
Basically, lets say A1:A100 is selected, im going to have a inputbox asking how many to select, you put 10 in the inputbox, and then it randomly chooses 10 from A1:A100 and highlights them
This seems easy enough, i can do the input box and know the random function. just not sure how to set the beginning point and the ending point with Cell locations and then have it highlight those selections... a for loop I'm guessing?

View 6 Replies View RelatedSelect 30 Random Items From A List
Apr 30, 2014I've got a list of items (formatted alphanumeric) in column G starting at row 2. I would like a cell formula that would randomly select 30 items from this column and place them in column H starting at row 2. One caveat is that the list must remain static once created. If the Rand()function is used, it recalculates whenever the worksheet is updated so that might be a problem.
Cell formula to do this? A VBA solution would be OK as well.
Select 81 Winners At Random From 5000 Entries
Nov 26, 2013I am looking at ways to select 81 winners at random from a spreadsheet with 5000 + names on it. I have tried assigning each cell with a value between 1 and 81 and then removing the duplicates but i cant seem to get excel to pick 81 unique numbers, instead it will pick no number 1, or two number 70s.
I have managed to get a macro to pick 1 cell at random but cant get it to pick across the whole range of 5000.
Select Random Rows And Display On New Sheet
Mar 30, 2009I need the selected rows to be displayed on a new sheet. The idea being that I have a quiz with hundreds of questions and I only want a random selection to appear when I execute the macro. I plan on hiding the original questions and only displaying the randomly selected ones.
Here is the original code from the previous post.
Select Random Row, Split Cells To Different Worksheets
Jul 26, 2009I am trying to write a macro to:
1. Randomly selects 50 rows from 834 on "worksheet 1". There are only two cells per row.
2. Then, it clears "worksheet 2" and "worksheet 3".
3. From each selected row in "Worksheet 1", it splits the two cells and copies the results into two different worksheets, one column per sheet.
4. The rows in the two new worksheets should be congruent (i.e. same selected order from worksheet 1). Keeping the order the same is important.
This is what I have so far:
--------------------
Sub Macro1()
Dim rng As Range
Dim iRow As Long
With Rows("1:834")
Do
iRow = Fix(Rnd() * 834 + 1)
If rng Is Nothing Then
Set rng = .Rows(iRow)
Else
Set rng = Union(rng, .Rows(iRow))
End If
Loop Until rng.Areas.Count >= 50
End With
rng.Select
Selection.Copy Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
End Sub
-------------------
Optimize Select Random Cell Value Without Duplicates Code
Apr 6, 2013I have two worksheets. ws1 contains a large number of dates on column 3. ws3 contains around 20 dates on column 3.
I want to pick two dates randomly in ws1 that does not already exist in ws3.
Here is my working code, but it is really slow to process. How to optimize this code? Also I would like to add a function where if the macro is not able to find two random dates that aren't already in ws3 then exit loop.
VB:
Set ws1 = thisworkbook.sheets(1)
Set ws3 = thisworkbook.sheets(3)
lr = ws2.Cells.Find(What:="*", After:=[A1], SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
Set rvis = ws2.Range("c2:c" & lr).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)

Transpose Values All Cells From Sheet2 To Sheet1
Dec 15, 2008on the sheet I wanted to transpose to,Starting w/ the first cell, click, in the formula box, type ,= then goto the other sheet w/data and click. Excel will autofill the formula. Then, using that newly transposed cell , copy and paste to all the other cells. This will auto transpose the rest of the cells in direct relationship to Cell column and row of the other sheet. Next, I went back to and did copy and pasted the formats of the cells. After completion, I've got a mirror copy of my sheet. There's still probably a simpler way of doing this. But this
worked for me.
Need a Simple VBA code or excel formula to display values and cell coloring generated from the formulas or vba code from sheet2 onto sheet1.

Contain Either Random Values Or Blank Cells
Apr 1, 2009A1:A1600 contain either random values or blank cells.
Each time there is a blank, I would like a fresh count placed next to the blank cell in B which counts the populated rows between each blank.
My problem is that I have no idea how to set my count back to zero each time I hit a blank and continue down my column. There is no consistancy between blanks so I need the flexability.
Example
A B
