Limit Range Of Active Document
Apr 16, 2013
All of a sudden, deleting an entire row has become a calculation too complicated for Excel to calculate. It seems the RANGE of even a single row exceeds 33,000 cells - and therefore I get a warning that this could take a long time. Ignoring this warning does no good - Excel then tells me it couldn't do it. "Excel cannot complete this task with available resources. Choose less data and or close other applications."
In another seemingly related problem, I used a macro to automatically extend my formulas down 15,000 rows. I had hoped that I'd never have to drag down formulas again. But instead, this action created a much larger range of cells Excel now seems to consider "active." That means I can no longer use my scroll wheel, for example, to navigate my 300-row spreadsheet, because the scroll wheel seems to move the cursor up and down as a percentage of the total document length - a length now 15,000 rows long - and whatever percentage of that length each click of the scroll wheel was supposed to cover is now too miniscule to notice.
How do I make this spreadsheet "small" again?
And am I right in believing I should just convert the thing to a table?

I have an Excel file that is 590 MB and Excel is telling me that since there are over 1,048,576 rows in this file (which I understand is the row limit for Excel 2010), it will only open partially, up to that row amount.
Excel suggested I open up the file in Word, but that has been unsuccessful - Word gives me error messages and won't open the file. I've also tried converting the file to .rtf and .odt, but again, that doesn't work.
Is there any way to break this excel file down? I'm assuming that whoever created it could not have made the document more than 1,048,576 rows, if that is Excel's limit, but maybe I am wrong. The document is in date order from 2008 to 2011, but only 2008 will show, and I know the later years exist. It doesn't matter to me which program this file opens with, I just need the data.

I am currently writing some VBA code to loop through and copy data from Excel file in sub folders into a master sheet of data. There are some 1200 Excel files (these are pre-2007 files), each containing a maximum of 600 lines of data. So far the code works until it gets to around 65000 rows (the old Excel limit). I am using and writing the code in a Macro-Enabled Excel 2007 file.
I am using a Range.Offset call, which is where the error is occurring, to copy in a name basically. What happened right before this was a Range.Copy operation from the old Excel file to a Range.PastSpecial in the new one. This worked fine, and actually went a few hundred rows past the pre-Excel 2007 limit. But when the single cell operation Range.Offset().Value is called next, it crashes with a Application or User-Defined error. The code works some 100+ times through the loop with no problem, and the file that it was working on is no different then the other files.

Is there a limit to how many selections you can include in a named range?
I have a worksheet that is split into several sections using merged cells accross rows. I would like to name most of the cells in a column so i can loop through them, but i can not include the merged cells that cross over it.
If my range is in Column C, it looks something like C2:C5, C7:10, C12:C20 (where C6 and C11 are part of a merged cell). When i name the range, it shortens the selected area.
Is there a limit? Is there another option to naming this very long range?

I am trying to define/name a range in vba. The range will always start in the same place, but as more information is appended to the data set it comes from, the more (or less) rows it can populate. I want to limit the length of the range because I am using it in a data validation drop down list and i do not want to see all of the blanks at the bottom of the list.
Checking the "Ignoe blanck cells" box in data validation did not make the spaces disappear, probably because there is data in an adjscent column that goes much further down the worksheet.
My current vba is:
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="Date", RefersToR1C1:= _
"=Input!R4C4:R65536C4"
I want it to be the range that would highlight if I placed my cursor in R4C4 and hit Ctrl+shift+Down Arrow

I've been using these things called ranges, but I'm not even really sure what they are or how to use them effectively. I want to be able to make the following macro only applicable to the range, of anything below F5,G5 and I5.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("$F:$I")) Is Nothing Then
Target.Font.Name = "Marlett"
If Target = vbNullString Then
Target = "a"
ElseIf Target = "a" Then
Target = "r"
Else
Target = vbNullString
End If
End If
End Sub

I am processing a fair few Invoices, which are being sent to me via e-mail as excel documents, very often they contain mistakes, a decent amount of mistakes. Usually the prices are wrong.
I keep track of every single entry on the invoice on my own document - Tracker, which I consider to be the superior/more correct document to the Invoice presented to me by my contractor.
Both of the documents have a reference number, which is a specific docket number, and horizontally, in the invoice, there is going to be a price for this docket. In my document, there is going to be a separate column for the total price.
Is it possible (I guess with VBA) to check for mistakes in the Invoice, but use the Tracker as a reference for this check.
Tracker has
columns
A - Name
B - Department
C - Date
D - Docket No.
C - Total price for the docket (calculation of E to Z)
E to Z - all smaller entries
Invoice has
columns
A - Date
B - Docket No.
C to E price for that docket, but it is spread, because departments are separated out, so each VAT account can be charged accordingly. I guess it is possible to do a separate column for the price, if it is easier to do a script that way.
Basically, I need to check if in the Invoice document, the price (C to E) for Docket No. (B) is the same as the price (C) for the Docket No. (D) in the Tracker.
I would like the wrong entries to be highlighted on the Invoice Document, so I can see straight away, that this needs attention.
Not always the price is wrong, sometimes the Docket No. is spelled incorrectly (Dyslexic contractor), hence the highlighting.

I am currently using the simple code block below to jump to a cell on another sheet based on a user-inputted value to a cell on the current sheet. Although jump is too strong a word at the moment...walk slowly might be more appropriate.
The problem is that the sheet that contains the target cell hosts a very sizable used range and the FIND function can sometimes take almost a minute before finding and focussing on the required cell.
While I do not believe that a search range below that of sheet level for the FIND() function is possible, the cell that I am looking to jump to resides in a one-column, sorted, dynamic named range (=Bookings!JobID) on the target sheet, so I am sure that it must be possible to find and go the target cell in a much quicker timeframe than that being delivered at the moment. Just can't find something suitable at the moment.

How do I disable a range of cells when a numerical limit is reached?
Here is the scenario:
I have two worksheets, one called “Items” which contains a list of Items and their weight. The other sheet is called “Container” and displays a Type of container in cell B2, the weight capacity of that container (the numerical limit) in cell C2, and a range from B5 to B14 that needs to be filled out by an end user. The items in B2:B14 are chosen using Validation, form the Items sheet. The weight is brought in via a vLookup, and the total weight is calculated as items are added.
My problem is that I have yet to find a way to “disable” any extra cells in B5:B14 once the weight limit is reached, and clear the last cell data was selected for, all without destroying the Validation for the cells in range B5:B14.
I have tried many different things in the Worksheet Change Event, but none have yielded the desired result.

I have three codes (P, /P, P/) that could be entered in range H5:P5. P is counted as 1; P/ and /P are both counted as ½.
I have the following formula in D5:
=COUNTIF(H5:S5,"P")+COUNTIF(H5:S5,"P/")/2+COUNTIF(H5:S5,"/P")/2
I entered the following formula for data validation:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(H5:S5="P"))+SUMPRODUCT(--(H5:S5="P/")/2)+SUMPRODUCT(--(H5:S5="/P")/2)

I have got stuck on one piece of my code and having trouble fixing... Overall I am trying to find variable station name in cell L2 of Sheet 2 in Sheet 1 and then select and copy the data from the data in "cell L2 of Sheet 2" to the last entry of that row. I have attached an example test spreadsheet of the data and a macro is within Sheet 1 called test1. Please note that cell L2 in Sheet 2 will always be different station name and the station list in Sheet 1 will change with differing station name.
The code I am using is:

I use an excel workbook that contains around 20-30 output tables/ranges and i would to have a macro which will enable me to open a specific word document and paste these tables/ranges from excel into the word document. I am unsure as to how to get excel and word to "talk to each other"???
To make things more difficult i would like to be able to set the paste location in the word document, and ideally i would the copy and paste function to be a normal copy and paste and not a paste special as the tables/rnage in excel have already been formatted correctly and column widths adjusted to fit the margin of the word document.
Currently I select the range in excel, switch to word and paste then continue until all tables/ranges are pasted. Not difficult but as certain calculations change these tables/ranges need to be re-copied and pasted to word which gets frustrating.

I have a UDF for a lookup_occurrence formula (thanks to Dave), and I was wondering if it was possible to tweak the range it looks at with if statements.
I have a formula like this =Lookup_Occurence(B13, INDIRECT($N$5), 1,1,5) where N5 says exit card 1.
I need it to only look at a certain rows within exit card 1 depending on the value entered in I5.
If value I5 says Period_1 it will only look in rows 12:46.
If value I5 says Period_2 it will only look in rows 48:82 etc.
I believe I need to modify the xl look part of the code with if statements.
Below is the code. I am wondering if I can replace the xlLook line with nested if statements. If I5="Period_1 then rows 12:46" etc.
Function Lookup_Occurence(To_find, Table_array As Range, _
Look_in_col As Long, Offset_col, Occurrence As Long, _
Optional Case_sensitive As Boolean, Optional Part_cell_match As Boolean)
Dim lLoop As Long
Dim rFound As Range
Dim xlLook As XlLookAt
Dim lOcCheck As Long

I Have searched existing threads but cannot find the answer to my query,
As part of a longer macro, I want to sum all cells in a column which contains data. Each day the number of cells that contain data will vary.
I have tired specifying all the cells in the column which contain data as a range, by selecting the top cell and using the
Range(Selection, Selection, Selection.End(x1Down))
But I cannot get a SUM Formula of this range. If someone could show me the correct syntax to get a sum from a range like this I would be very grateful.

My VB looks like this at the moment
[Code]....
What I want to do is when a button is clicked, the range of data in columns 2-9 of the active row gets copied. Then a new sheet is created and the data is then pasted to a range in that new sheet.
The VB I have done so far works fine but its specific to a single range - it doesnt take account of the active row.

I am after a vba code that will sum the range from the activecell upwards.
The range does not go to the top of the column there are many blanks cells therefore it would need to
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlUp)).Select
This is what I was working on and isn't very good and the sum formula does not work even though I have change the formula many times.
Code:
Sub Macro1()
Dim cellC As Range, rng As Range, topcell As Range, bottomcell As Range
Set bottomcell = ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 0)
Dim s1 As String

This very simple code brings me to M402 everytime I click on the button.
However, I would like to stay in the same column that I am at the moment when I click the button, and go to row 402. (i.e. if I am in cell "Z56", I would like to be redirected to "Z402" when I click the button.
