I have a range (of 2 rows) that are set up as a header row and sub row. I want a macro to insert these above the active row (ie. where the user places the cursor), but when I select and copy the range in the macro, I don't know how to refer back to the 'active row' because that's not active anymore.
I'd also like the cursor then to be placed into one of the cells in the new row, ready for the user to start editing.
This may sound trivial, but how do you insert a column to the right of the current selection?
If I do Selection.EntireColumn.Insert that inserts a column to the left. Anyone know how to do this?
I have problems inserting new rows in selected files. The files with the problems have a macro. I don't know if the problem can lie within the macro. There is no error message, it just won't insert the new row(s).

What is the VBA code for inserting text in all column B-cells of multiple selected rows?
I am creating a worksheet with a table containing various data related to orders of various materials (this is more or less data gathering from an older, paper-based 'system'). This table spans, columnwise, from A to D and expands downwards as more orders are added. The information in each column is: A=order number, B=type of material and C=material specs. and D=additional comments.
I've set it up so that the only thing I really have to do is to insert the type of material in the cells of column B, and the rest will sort itself out. Instead of having to insert a new row for each new entry and manually typing in the name of the material (these entries are often done in the midst of already existing data), I created several similar, macroed buttons for the different types of materials we use. These macros work by selecting the row of the currently active cell, inserting a new row and then add the name of the material in the column B-cell of this new row. What I am having trouble doing though, is to get the text-entry to work for a selection of multiple cells.
As an example, lets say that I would like to add 5 orders of "Grade A Steel" in the middle of the table - in the row above row 8. With the macro I currently have I can select cell B5, click the macro, and a new row will be inserted with "Grade A Steel" in column B of this new row. This action could be performed 5 times over, but would be easier if I could just mark a range of 5 cells, say B8:B12, click the macro and get the text/data inserted the column B-cells of all 5 of the new rows. So far I've been able to create a macro that inserts multiple new rows, but I've only been successful in filling the column B-cell in the first row leaving the 4 below empty.
I am using this code to hide or unhide rows of text on another sheet:
VB:
Sub ProcessSheet1ChangeOnCellJ7(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim sAddress As String
Dim sValue As String
'Get the address of the cell that changed without '$' signs
sAddress = Target.Address(False, False)
[Code]....
When the "Not Pursuing" list box option is selected (in cell "J7" or "J8" in Sheet 1) I need to add (or over-write) "Not Pursuing" to the range of cells in column "B" (in the "Tasks" sheet), but only for that particular Goal, meaning a limited range of cells in column "B". If the "Pursuing - Show All Tasks" option is selected for a Goal then these same cells need to be blank so that the appropriate person can enter their name into the cell.
The purpose for adding "Not Pursuing" automatically to these yellow highlighted cells is that it will facilitate filtering of tasks by individual in the "Tasks" sheet..
Again I have tried several times to upload a sample file and am unable to, which I know makes it more difficult to solve. (Is there some common mistake people make? I know it's an allowed format and is very small in file size....)
Code solution can be entered directly beneath:
VB:
If Target.Value = "Not Pursuing" Then
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Tasks").Rows("29:29").EntireRow.Hidden = False
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Tasks").Rows("30:48").EntireRow.Hidden = True
Suppose that i have a table that displays different metrics for each month of the year. I'm dealing with waste management at a thrift store so I'm looking at the weight of donations salvaged, weight of donations sent to landfill and weight sold and so forth. It would look something like this..
weight sent to landfill
weight sold
january
500
450
february
350
390
march
400
789
In my dashboard I'd like to be able to sum the total weight salvaged for certain months like Jan-Feb or Jan-March.
I've named the ranges such as "weightsalvaged.Jan_Feb". So for the sum of the weight salvaged, I have the formula =sum(weightsalvaged.Jan_Feb)
I would like to have another cell where I write "Mar" and the name of the range in the formula automatically changes from
=sum(weightsalvaged.Jan_Feb) TO =sum(weightsalvaged.Jan_Mar)
I have a long row of text cells in a range. Starting with the 1st cell I want to insert 3 empty to the right, then repeat for the next cell that had originally butted up against the first cell until 3 cells have been inserted for each cell in the range.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a macro recorded that inserts into column E in the attached report, and then retrieves data from another worksheet in the workbook. In column D I am trying to keep a 6 month average which includes the latest inserted data, however every time I insert a column the relationship with column D is moved out by one. e.g. range E8:J8 becomes F8:K8.
I am also stuck with setting up a macro to import a new model into the report. I have set up a worksheet called new model with the manufacturer, model and fail descriptions, however all macros I have recorded fail when trying to insert the manufacturer and model into mulitple cells.
I would like to insert a formula in a column, the formula is in column D and must be something like "=C1-B1" for row 1, "=C2-B2" for row 2,...etc. I would like to do it without using a loop cycle in VBA...I have attached an example of the data I'm using..
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am having trouble looping through a range and inserting a formula where a condition is met.
My range is "h9:i"
My current code inserts a formula in column i when there is a value in the adjacent row in column h:
[Code] .....
However, because there are so many rows (12,000+) it is taking a considerable length of time to run.
Some of the cells in column i will already contain the relevant formula, so to speed this up I want to insert the formula in column i only when the cell value (in column i) is not null, as opposed to inserting it for all cells within the range.
I know how to loop through the range, but the problem is the 'H9' cell reference in the formula in the code above will need to change depending on what row it is being inserted into- so if it is going into "i31" this will need to be "h31".
Right now, the code below is inserting an entire row when it pastes the values in I only want the values to be inserted in Range (A:AJ).

How can I get it so that if I put an X in the column under the relevant paragraph, it will insert the paragraph of text into the spreadsheet.
For example. Text lies in cell D2. If I put an X in cell D7, I want the text in D2 to be inserted into C7.

I have a macro which I manually have to change the range in order to run the macro, e.g. Set rngData = Range("B4:I12")
rather than having to change the range for each macro, I was wondering if I could run the macro for the highlighted area. I have tried this, but doesn't seem to work.
Set rngData = Range. CurrentRegion.Select
I'm currently on Manual Calculation mode. I have formulas in cells A1 to A10 which has not been refreshed. Can I select only range A3 to A6 and recalculate only those cells?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI need help please. Using a macro, I have selected the range C7:C12. Now I need to keep this selection and expand it 18 columns to the right. This would give me a selection of C7:U12.
The original range changes at various times. Some times it might be C7: C452 etc.
I know it's easy, but I can get the code to keep the selection.
I am looping through a selected range. The code searches through column B and finds any data. If found, it returns the value to a different workbook to column B.

I am using the following code to Autofill a formula through a variable range:
Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range(MyFormulaCell, TerminalCell), Type:=xlFillDefault
MyFormulaCell is the cell with the formula, and TermnialCell is a variable set on a count of rows. This is working great, and I can loop through this for the columns I need to copy just fine by incrementing values, but as I apply this to several sections, it's taking me up to a minute to run the macro. In this "I want it now" day and age, I'm sure my coworkers for whom I am making this will not be happy to wait that long.
Is there a way that I can incorporate a selected range into this method?
I'd like to set MyFormulaCell to:
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
and then autofill the formula down the number of rows contained in TerminalCell.
I have a form that asks at what row the user wants to start with a selected range then how many rows to select. There will always be 21 columns selected with this range. I am still learning but it has to do with something on how I am setting the Start object. It is not being recognized.
Dim Row As Long
Dim Selection As Long
Dim Start As Range
Row = txtStartRow
Selection = txtHowMany
Set Start = Range("A" & txtStartRow).Select
Range(Start & ActiveCell.Offset(Selection, 20)).Select
My data is in one column as follows:
ABC
(BLANK)DEF (BLANK)(BLANK)
What I want to do is to delete the blank cells and count how many not-empty cells.
The following sub works fine if I put the active cell manually in A1. However, the first range select always give me the "1004" error. Why? I don't have any clue.
Range("a1:a5").Select
Do Until ActiveCell.Value = "stop"
Do Until IsEmpty(ActiveCell)
Selection.Offset(1, 0).Select
Loop
ActiveCell.Delete
Loop
I am trying to link data that has been entered into a inputbox with a range of cells.

I am trying to name a selected range in VBA in order to use it in a vlookup table. Code I have so far is as follows:

The formatting works, but the selection does not get named.
I have a spreadsheet with names of students, year groups, subjects and others. My VBA code will analyse student's results, but before I get there I would like the user to be able to select groups of students using listboxes.
Now I have a tonne of variables that I won't bore you with but the main thing I would like to do is to scan through each cell in a range on my spreadsheet and determine if the value of that cell is equal to a selected option in the listbox. This will let me, for example, filter by only Year 10 students, or select to display only Year 9 and 11 students.
I already have the code to scan through each cell:
VB:
'Run through each student and check they match the criteria
For N = 1 To StudentList.ListCount
'Split the first and second names
StudentName = Split(StudentList.List(N - 1))
[Code] .....
Essentially, I would like to take the cell "A" & N2 and check to see if it matches one of the selected options in a listbox called "YearList"

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhat I need is the following: I select a range of numbers and for this range I want to calculate the 1/3th and 2/3th percentile, and these should come in two cells that I can easily change in the vba code.
Some formula in which I can give two inputs: first the range of which it has to calculate the 1/3th and 2/3th percentile and a second input which is just a number and than the vba should say whether that second input is in the first range (between 0 and the 1/3th percentile value) or in the second range (between 1/3th and 2/3th percentile values) or third range (between2/3th percentile value and highest value).
