I think my brain is shutting down.
Sinario is simple
I have data with rows that are one cell off.

I am attempting to delete the blank cells and left.
below is the macro I have been trying to work with.
I am building a template ("Table") that will import data from 4 other spreadsheets and then format the data once its all in the template. I need to delete all rows where a name didn't import. The names are landing in column B (starting with B22), so I set up my code using an active cell loop macro to examine each cell to see if it was empty, and then to delete the row if it were. I've tried 4-5 iterations of code but nothing is working correctly.
Apparently when the fields are copied over from the other spreadsheets, some empty cells actually have something in them such that they are not completely blank. What syntax I can use so that I capture every instance of a blank/empty cell and delete that corresponding row? Some of the code I've tried is below.
[Code] .....
if cell = null, then skip it to the lower cell.
the data is like this:
A361
A37
A38
A391
and i want to be like this:
A36
A39
without delete the row.
I have a simple formula, =IF(A1=0,"",A1) to replace 0 with blank. However ISBLANK doesn't recognize the result as blank, because it's really testing for an empty / unused cell rather than a blank one.
Is there something I can replace the "" with so that ISBLANK returns true?
how can i express a null cell in formula,because put "" in a cell not a real null cell, i reckon MS put some occupation symbol into that cell which do not display. cause i want to use "skip the Null cell" function which located in the selection paste manu.
I am trying to do a COUNTIF the cell is not empty. Sometimes the value starts with a number but sometimes the value is a letter.
I figured out how do one or the other but not both.
=COUNTIF(E2:E65536,">""")
=COUNTIF(E2:E65536,">0")
Is is some how possible to combine them together.
Looking for a way to correct what is going on with row 9. I need it to return either zero or empty, but also include the current formula.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need a quick macro I can run to hide the columns if the formula result for cells B1:AA1 is "" (null) instead of text. This runs explicitly on Sheet2. Array VBA is still geek to me.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to run a loop which will do something when there is a value in the cell, but skip the cell (or delete the row) when there is no value.
I pulled this from another thread, but it isn't working for me: ...
I am finding that I am using the 'go to' option frequently in my macros, but I feel very limited by the options that I have (I need to learn VB-I know) I would like primarily to discover how to select the last cell containing anything (not including blanks like the 'last cell' option in the edit>go to) within a selected row. Ideally, I would like a formula to fill downward a given amount of rows so as to prevent myself from having to fill them all the way down to the end of the spreadsheet (therebye making the file to large). Also, If anyone could guide me to a resource at which I can find similar commands.
View 9 Replies View RelatedHow exactly does Excell treats uninitialized variables ? I have created a function which takes in one of the cell values as a parameter.. However, it seems that when I don't reference an empty cell, the code does not work. Let the function be ABC, and the let the cell be A1
When I use
=ABC(....,A1,....) , it works
However, when I use
=ABC(....,,....) I am getting an eror
Now , I tried using the IsEmpty function , and it seems tht when i use ,, or ,"", then the variable is not caught.. however, the variable is caught when i use an empty cell such as ,A1,
FYI, I am using the vba's formula method to assign this function to a cell. So when I use
"," & ActiveCell.Offset(to reach A1).Value & "," , I see blank ,, when A1 is empty
The code should go through each worksheet and if the row in column A has a null value or 0, then delete the row. The count is based off of column T. The row deletion portion of the code works, but something is wrong with my worksheet looping structure.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am paste valuing from one sheet to another. The size of the data changes each time so to manually delete all Null cells is a pain.
If I do not delete them it sucks up 3 megs of space. I have searched the board several times looking for a solution, lots of discussions but no solutions.
It would be great if I could find that first cell that contains the Null string and then delete the cells remaining in the column. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I have a VBA program which is running very slowly on one of my computers, but none of the others.
Here's a piece of code which illustrates the problem, which is that assigning a null string to a cell is very slow.
Option Explicit
Public Sub test()
Dim objSh As Worksheet
Dim I As Integer
Set objSh = Worksheets("Sheet1")
MsgBox "test1"
For I = 1 To 1000
objSh.Cells(1, 1) = ""
Next
MsgBox "test2"
For I = 1 To 1000
objSh.Cells(1, 1) = " "
Next
MsgBox "done"
End Sub
If I change this to assign a space instead it is very fast (about 1,000 times faster).
This slow machine is not normally slow; an ACER Aspire 9410Z with 2GB RAM, running Vista Ultimate.
Other machines run this code OK on a mix of Windows XP, 2000 and Vista Business. with Excel 2003, 2000 and 2007.
Ultimate seems to be the only unique factor of the machine where it runs slowly.
I tried to answer a problem on here by giving this formula: = COUNTIF(A1:B6,"=""")
but it doesn't work on my machine. Nor does =COUNTIF(A1:B6,"<>"""). In either case, the effect is as if all cells in the range are non-blank. But the result of =A1="" is "TRUE". Neither syntax is rejected by Excel; in fact, if you omit one of the quotes, the syntax is corrected to the form shown. So I am curious. Does this work normally, but some setting in my machine is stopping it? Or, if it never works, why is it not giving a syntax error? I am using Excel 2000.

View 2 Replies View RelatedRecently I have been practising writing my own macros in VBA. I am using Excel 2010.
I have been trying to write a macro to look at two columns in a worksheet (say, columns D and E) and to delete the contents (not the formatting, and I don't want to delete the cell itself) of that cell only if it contains a numerical value (e.g. 1, 2, 256 or any other number). If it finds a cell with letters, then it wouldn't delete the contents of the cell. The cells are currently formatted as "currency" cells.
I have been trying all sorts of things and I just can't get it to work. I can write a macro to clear a range easy enough, but I am stuck on getting it to delete the right stuff. I won't embarrass myself by uploading the code that I have been using..
I have a huge database. I am looking for a macro that can search for a particular word. If a match is found, the macro should do two things simultaneously...

I have the following columns that return cover period dates.
Start of Cover PeriodEnd of Cover Period01-Nov-0631-Jan-0701-Jul-0831-May-0901-Dec-0930-Jun-1001-Jan-1131-Dec-10
I however need a macro that will delete the cell contents if the "Start of Cover Period" (column AK) date is > than the "End of cover period" (column AL) date.
Thus it must compare ak2 with al2 and if ak2>al2 then clear both cells. if AK2
I'd like a code to automatically delete the value in column AK and its corespondent in AL, if the value in AK is filled in column C

I have some data in sheet 2 column A. The amount of data also varies everytime. In addition, blank cells maybe present as well.
what I need here is to match the values in column A sheet 1 to column A sheet 2, and if it matches to delete the entire row in sheet 1.
However, i want to keep all blank cells in column A sheet 1.
Sheet 2 blank cells to be removed if any.
how do I do that in VBA? A lot of forums talk about a specific value but none on non specific values.
I am trying to delete a rows that contains a certain value. When I run the command from VB, it works. When I run the command from the tools menu in Excel, it works.

Cells(x, 2).EntireRow.Delete
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'Deletes expired coupons

If (Cells(x, 7).Value < Cells(2, 3).Value) Then
Cells(x, 2).EntireRow.Delete
Else
x = x + 1

Loop Until Cells(x, 2).Value = ""

I am trying to put together a spreadsheet that uses vlookup formula in column C to reference column A so that it tells me what the corresponding data is to the column A input. The hard part is that the corresponding info given in my vlookup, I would like to be able to over-ride in the next column (D) and make the column C cell right beside it's data delete only if something is entered into column D. Since column C already has a Vlookup formula in it, I am unsure how to proceed.
