How To Turn Range.find Into A Cell Reference
Dec 9, 2009
I am writing a function that opens up an external excel document, identifies a string in a certain range and then i also want it to return a cell reference for that string including the number of rows beneath the cell that the string was found in.

I have a workbook which is set up to take an average heart rate of a participant from a series of data points. I have set the spreadsheet up before I have collected some of the data. (so I can review the project at the 3 months period and its an ongoing project).
The problem is that if there is no data in a participants column then excel correctly gives you readout of #DIV//0!. On my results page this #DIV//0! makes it hard to read the spreadsheet. Is it possible to get excel to turn #DIV//0! to 0 or even turn it to a blank cell?

I import alot of data from a banking site and for some reason I get a column of data which should be values but is text. It also has a large number of different currency symbols etc preceeding them.
ie:
$343
£565
3453
Yen54645
RBL60
always text
Can anyone think of a way a macro could be run down the column and strip out the symbols and prefixes and leave the remain numbers as a Value not Text.

I'm having some difficulties in defining my formula. I'm pretty sure that this should be possible.
I have a table containing values and dates. For each change in dates, I should summarize every value for that date. I cannot use the autosummarize function, because I do not want the sum to be beneath the values, rather in a column to the right of the values.
I have created a formula which checks for a change in date: =IF(C15=C16;0;1) where the C column contains the dates. Basically I say that the Index column should contain a 0 if the date is the same as previously registered, 1 if it is a new date.
The index column is used in some conditional formatting rules, so I would like to keep it anyway.

I'm in the leadup to my A2 ICT controlled conditions piece where i have to make an Excel system. My chosen subject for this is to use the school house points system. I'm going to make a system where the results of house matches are inputted and points are awarded accordingly.
I just have a couple of queries after looking at my initial designs.
1. Is it possible to get excel to look through a sheet, find a text reference, then bring up something in a cell located in the same row? For example, for it to locate one of the House team names, then go along the row and find the ammount of house points they have in order to make a total for them. Is this also possible over a number of sheets? (In order to keep a running total on a separate sheet).
E.G. House, Games Played, Wins, Losses, Draws, House Points
2. For the house cross country event they use a different system which differs from everything i have designed. What i basically need to do is be able to use a drop down against each finishing position where you can select one of the four house teams, then it takes the points won for that finishing position and puts them into a table.

How can I modify the following formula to find the contents of reference cell, for example if the cell reference (G$3) is equal to 9 I want it to use 8 instead.
Code:
IF(ISERROR(INDEX(tra!$E$2:$E$1100,MATCH(G$3,tra!$C$2:$C$1100,0))),"",
INDEX(tra!$E$2:$E$1100,MATCH(G$3,tra!$C$2:$C$1100,0)))
I tried using G$3-1 but this doesn't appear to work.

I have a workbook with two sheets. The first sheet is the data sheet.
Data Worksheet

104 20 21 CR10600S 104 10420 1042021 1042021DUS

104 20 23 CR39601P 104 10420 1042023 1042023SPR
The next sheet is where the magic happens. Separate this worksheet into two sections. The reference section (column A and B) and the entry section (column E-G). Column D is a formula that will concatenate column E-G together. In the entry section any number of combinations can be entered. In the reference section I need to take the style number and reference it back to the data sheet. Then take the possible combinations from that style (column E and greater) and see if any of those combinations exist on the other sheet in column D. If so then say added....otherwise say needed.
"....In Pricing Sheet" is where I am looking to put needed or added or something like it.
A B C D E F G
STYLE
IN PRICING SHEET Concat DEPT MCL SCL STYLE
CR10600S Added 1042021 104 20 21
CR10600SX Added 1042022 104 20 22
CR10603S Added
CR10603SX Added
CR49605S Added
CR49605SX Added
CR39601P Needed
Any ideas on how to do this in formulas and without code? I have tried and looked into index, match, dget and lookup. I just don't think I am finding the right combination of formulas.

This is a continuation of thread 182629 [URL] ....
The End User wanted originally to type characters into cell C1 of a worksheet that the macro searched for in another worksheet, copying across every row containing the input.
The responses gave me the following code which worked perfectly:
VB:
With Sheets("PICKLIST")
myFind = "*" & .[c1].Value & "*"
End With
If myFind = "*" & "" & "*" Then Exit Sub
Unfortunately, the user NOW wants a Text Box instead of putting the characters into a cell.
I added a textbox (originally called 'TextBox2' but renamed "Choice") and "Dimed" CHOICE As Range.
Then tried the following code:
VB:
With Sheets("PICKLIST")
myFind = "*" & CHOICE & "*"
End With
But it generates a "RunTime Error 91" - Object variable or With block variable not set.

I am building a Workbook which takes data from SheetA and inserts it into SheetB.
Part of the data is only entered when a positive value exists.
I then do an export from SheetB.
The problem is that I need to get the column number and pass it to the cell reference based on the field name in row 1.
Dim sFindstring As String
Dim rFindcell As range
Dim iR As Integer
Dim iC As Integer
sFindString = " Find this string in the cell"
'Using cells find the findstring
Set rFindCell = Cells.Find(What:=sFindString, After:=[A1], LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious)
'OK so look here
iR = 3
'I am trying to pick up the column number
iC = rFindCell.Column
rFindCell throws an object or with block variable not set error. Is there some property that I need to set.

i need to copy a range from one workbook ("weekly data") to another ("Yearly data"). The range to copy is called 'weekly data'. The ranges to paste to are called 'week 1' through to 'week 52' (this is the yearly data sheet). On the yearly sheet there is a cell Po1' that week on week will state the week number ie 'week13', 'week14' etc. code to use this data in 'P1' to tell the macro to copy to the appropriate week. I have attached as far as i got (then failed due to lack of experiance).
presuming that both books are open
HTML windows("weekly data").activate
sheets("weekly transfer").select
range("weekly data").copy
windows("yearly data").activate
'only one sheet in workbook
range ' data from p1 .paste

I have a list of headings and items and I have a set of formulas that work out depending on the heading what items are listed.
Say theres 10 items and the heading starts at C4 and that heading has 10 items, so it puts "C5" as text in G1 and "C15" as text in G2 so i now know my cell range of items
How can i use the text in those cells to put in a formula to call that as a range?
If I use the indirect formula it shows me the value of the cell, but im after using it to reference the cell

I have a variable which contains the column number. How do I then reference a range in VBA using that column number, as opposed to the letter? I know how to convert the number into the letter, but I also know there has to be something more simpler. For instance, a form of the ADDRESS function, but in VBA?

I have a list of numbers in Column A and in Column B I have a standard Sum formula which sums the adjacent number in Column A and the four numbers before it.
A B
1 =Sum(A1:A5)
3 =Sum(A2:A6)
5 ...
3 ...
5
6
I would like to have a formula which references another cell to define how many rows to sum from the starting cell. So in the above example, the total number of rows which are added together is 5. If I wanted to change all of the SUM formulas to add 6 rows, I would like to be able to change the number in the reference cell to 6 and all of the sum formulas would switch to adding 6 rows.

I have a VBA method that goes thru and calculates a bunch of stuff and puts this calculated info into a static data structure. This method is called 'setProjectInfo()'. This method is reliant on values on my worksheets, So as the user makes changes to the worksheet, I want setProjectInfo() to get called so it refreshes the data structure with updated information. I then have a bunch of helper methods to access different parts of this data structure. These helper methods are used in the formulae of a bunch of cells on a worksheet (ie '=getPercentComplete(period)', etc, etc).
This is all working well except for one thing. Sometimes the helper methods get called BEFORE setProjectInfo() gets called.. So, the helper methods return stale information. I can only get around this by manually recalculating the spreadsheet again. setProjectInfo() does enough stuff and takes a long enough time that I don't want to have to call it at the top of each helper method.
I've put the call to setProjectInfo() in a cell formula at the top of the my spreadsheet in hopes that Excel would know enough to call it first.. But that does not seem to work. Net, how can I get VBA to always call setProjectInfo() BEFORE it calls any other VBA methods?

I have a loop that executes roughly 7.7 million times when my VBA program runs. Neednless to say it take a long time to run - usually a couple days.
The inner-most loop contains a line of code from way back in my early vba programming days when I knew even less than the small amount I know about programming now (and if you can follow that sentence you might be able to understand some of the spaghetti code I write :-) ).
for k = 1 to n
if Worksheets("Personell").Range("D" & Trim(Str(k))) > dtCompleted then ...
Would it be faster to use this syntax (which I just found out about):
if Worksheets("Personell").Cells(k,4) > dtCompleted then ...
It would cut out 2 functions calls, trim() and str(), so it would be faster, right?
I am almost embarassed to post the Range("D" & Trim(Str(k)) line of code because it looks so convoluted now, but that's how I learned to program, just fumbling through until it ran...
So in short, I just wanted to confirm that the cells() syntax run faster before I spend an hour editing and tested.

I have a formula which is using named ranges-
=SUMPRODUCT(xxx-30,Ship_30)/SUM(Ship_30)
where Ship_30 name references the following-
='sheet 1'!$C$20:$C$38
The value of 20 is static, the value of 38 is dynamic. Each new time period adds another value (i.e. 39,40,41)
Having to edit each name range reference in the name manager is not acceptable since there is potentially over 30 to edit each month.
I would like to edit a cell which would have contained the value 38 (or C38) with a new value of 39 (or C39) so the range reference would be updated with the new value.
The goal would be to have a couple of rows with the following that could be edited with new values

I'm working with a very complex financial workbook with over 3,000 named ranges and would like code to replace the named ranges with the cell references and display it in a message box so the user can easily trace the references without removing the named ranges from the formula. There is a lot of code with the named ranges, so actually converting them to cell references is out of the question.
I found this code, but obviously it physically replaces the range names in the cell. Hopefully it can be converted to display it in a text box.
Code:
Sub FixReferencesToCellNames()
Dim c As Range, n As Name
For Each c In Range("A1:IV65536").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormulas)
[Code]....
What I am looking for is that a user select a cell that they want to see the references, run the code to see the cell references for that particular cell in a message box.

In the attached spreadsheet I am trying to always reference the sum column from Qty in Det Est.
This is because the number of roads changes for each project.
I created a dynamic range name surfacing with the following formula:
=offset(qty!$a$1,0,0,counta(qty!$A$A), counta(qty!$1$1)).
My question is what formula do I use to reference the sum column for each row on the Det Est Sheet.

Is there a way to start match from a relative position?
Say a match I have in column "A" returns 344. Is it possible to start a new match for column "B" from that spot, instead of having it return a match starting at the top?

If I have two cells and a named range mexico
A1, A2.
A1 contains the string: "mexico"
A2 is the cells that has required data validation (drop down list).
I want A2's validation reference to be dynamic, in the sense that I can it reference it to A1; converting the string "mexico" to a named range mexico
I tried inputting = INDIRECT(A1) into A2
But I lack clarity in my understanding of referencing.
What is the correct procedure here.

I am preparing a model for a client that runs excel 2003. I need to change the format of a range based on the value in a cell (reference cell) that is outside the range to be reformatted.
Reference cell is a named cell with the value calculated with a Match() function, the only possible values are (1, 2, 3).
I need the VBA code to retrieve the reference cell value and apply one of three formats to the range. I believe the code for that part is something like:
Private Sub Format_Font()
Set vrange = Range("d63:r63")
Set refrange = Names("ind_agentfee").RefersTo
Set refrange = Mid(refrange, 2)
On Error Resume Next
If refrange = 1 Then
With vrange.Font
.Style = "Comma"
.NumberFormat = "_(* #,##0.0_);_(* (#,##0.0);_(* ""-""??_);_(@_)"
Else
If refrange = 2 Then
With vrange.Font
.Style = "Comma"
.NumberFormat = "_(* #,##0_);_(* (#,##0);_(* ""-""??_);_(@_)"
Else
.Style = "Percent"
End If
End Sub
I am having problems getting the proper opening statements and declarations correct and also get an "Else without Then" error with all combination's that I am attempting. I am sure that the code is mess now as I started with a recorded macro then modified it multiple times while researching the web.

I need method, using a button, that looks at a cell--say EO2, for example--, looks back on a master worksheet at a specified row and range for a match, then looks at the information from a specified range below the matching cell (The information in this column will either be blank or have an "X" in the cell), and then those rows that do not have an "X" will be hidden in the corresponding rows in the working worksheet. Therefore, if at any time the value in "EO2" ever changes, then it will automatically find a new match and repopulate and hide information as before. About 130 columns will have its own button so that a "query" can be made that depends on the information in a particular cell in that column.
The master worksheet now has matrix of 287 rows and 58 columns. Each row is for an operating procedure and each column shows a job code. An "X" in a coordinate cell for a column/row shows whether that job code is responsible for knowing that operating procedure. So, on the working sheet, an employee's primary job code is given underneath his or her name. When the button is pushed, all the operating procedures not required for a given person will be hidden and only the required ones will remain visible--grouped, if you will. Qualification dates will be easier to see now that the information is consolidated. Whenever someone transfers to a new position, a new code will be inputed on the working sheet. When the button is pushed, a new grouping will result. Any operating instructions that overlap will still have qualification dates, so that information will not need to be transcribed.

I am building an interactive sheet to profile a number of divisions based on a summary sheet of about 1200 rows and 90 columns of profiling criteria
I have attached an example but essentially:
1. I would like to be able to select from a list a value which would also be a named range title
2. Have the range information transposed into a row
What works:
1. I can transpose the range information when I use the following formula
I used OFFSET(Governance,COLUMN()-MIN(COLUMN(HGovernance)),0)
The problem:
I cant get it to use a cell reference (i.e. When I select Governance out of a Drop down list of Finance, HR, Governance etc). Having to type in "Governance" to bring back governance range information is fine, but not great when I am trying to profile the Finance or HR division as it then becomes too manual.
