Macro Referencing Text From Another Cell

Nov 3, 2008

I'm having some trouble figuring this out, although it's probably an easy fix. I'm trying to create a macro that when run, will enter text specified in the code in a cell of my choosing, and enter other information at the end of the previously entered text pulled from a different cell. I've attached at example of what I'm trying to do.

Referencing Sheet Using Mixture Of Text And Cell Value

Aug 2, 2014

I have multiple sheets with the names Payrolldata_Companyname (the company name is different for each sheet)

On a sheet called EmailList i have a list of the company names. Part of my macro is giving the cell containing the company im working on a Named Range of CompanyName. For example i might have company in the list called ExcelForum, which is in Cell A12. Cell A12 has been named CompanyName.

I want my macro to select the Sheet called PayrollData_ExcelForum, by getting the ExcelForum part of the sheet name by referencing the Range CompanyName.

My current link of code for this is as follows

Worksheets("Payrolldata_" & (Sheets("EmailList").Range("CompanyName").Value)).Select

This does not work.

Referencing Text Fields Within Cell Carriage Returns

Apr 18, 2013

I am trying to link the data from one cell to another. My destination cell has the formula

[=IF('Request Form'!A39="","",'Request Form'!A39)].

Which works great for values in the reference cell that do not contain carriage returns, which is possible. The problem I am running into is that if the reference cell contains a carriage return the destination cell just ignores it and crams the lines together for display purposes. Is there a way/formula I can use to force excel to display 'exactly' as entered, in cell returns and all?

Text To Column Referencing

Jul 23, 2009

I want to use the text to column function to break my data into different columns whenever there is a "(". I tried to take column A and reference the entire to columnn AA (for example, cell AA1 would be "=A1". From column AA, I then tried to perform the text to column function, but it would not separate by the "(". It only works when column A is directly copied to column AA. Is there a way to make it so that it can take a cell such as AA1 which is "=A1" and read it so that is the text of A1?

Macro To Automatically Convert PrtScr Image Based Text To Real Text In Cell

Mar 22, 2014

Programming Excel VBA Macro to do OCR (text recognition) from a prt scr screen capture image and input the text into cells. Currently my Excel file has a push-button, and upon clicking on it the macro pastes into Excel the current clipboard image I have created by pressing prt scr while in another program. The macro then crops the image to the region with the applicable text. I have to then manually type the text I see in image format into the appropriate cells.

the VBA coding to automate this? I'd like it to use the clipboard image and run it through OneNote OCR, after which the applicable text values are automatically entered into the cells. Ideally the code will first crop to the region with the desired text before it does OCR. If this is not feasible, it will need to incorporate a method (keyword search?) to hone in on the desired text after the entire prt scr image has been OCRed.

Macro To Run Macros Without Referencing The Filename

Feb 2, 2012

I have several macros that import several files.

I'd like to create one macro that runs all the other macros. The sample below works by running Import_01 and Import_02

Code:
Application.Run "'FY13 Budget Worksheet - 400 Student Affairs - BACKUP.xlsm'!Import_01"
Application.Run "'FY13 Budget Worksheet - 400 Student Affairs - BACKUP.xlsm'!Import_02"

The problem is this filename may change. I'd like to remove the reference to 'FY13 Budget Worksheet - 400 Student Affairs - BACKUP.xlsm' so that the above code will work should the user change the filename.

Assigning Macro And Using Relative Referencing

May 19, 2014

This one is a two parter. Part I is a bit of a necessity and Part II is a nice to have that would save me a boatload of time.

Part I: I need to assign a macro to a specific object in a cell. I've seen the code for targeting a static cell, but my data can be filtered and sorted.

For example, I have a cell in I6 that has text "Partial Deployment" that I want to run a macro on. If I were to sort alphbetically, this cell could end up as I20.

How to assign a macro to the text inside the cell? Also the text is not unique.

Part II: I would like to write a macro using relative referencing for similar to the below:

When user clicks on said object from Part I, the macro reads the corresponding column in that same row and users that to filter data on a separate spreadsheet.

Example: User selects "Partial Deployment" in cell I6, the macro references cell E6, copies the number "191", and uses that number to filter data on a separate spreadsheet.

Macro Referencing Column Number And Cells

Jul 10, 2014

I want to create a macro to insert 12 cells left of a column labeled "This Year"

As the spreadsheet grows (by 12 columns @ year) the "This Year" column moves to the right. Thus I need to reference the range off of that column and then insert 12 columns directly to the left of it each year.

I then need to enter the month labels in the new columns row 8.

My problem is trying to reference off the "This Year" column.

Macro Referencing Named Range In Worksheets Private Module

Sep 12, 2006

I'm having trouble calling a defined range within a VLOOKUP function in VBA. If the named range is located on the same sheet within which you are running the macro, everything runs fine and all is well in the world.

However, after I relocated the range to a separate sheet (a 'SourceData' sheet to tidy up the user interface sheet), I was getting the following error message:

Method 'Range' of object '_Worksheet' failed

The name is correctly defined - Range("DaysInYear").Select still picks up the correct selection - it's just the VLOOKUP will no longer function correctly.

Here is part of the macro's
For I = 1 To NumberOfDays
Range("A1").Value = DateAdd("d", -(I - 1), EndDate)
If Application.VLookup(Range("A1"), Range("DaysInYear"), 3, False) = 1 Then
If Application.VLookup(Range("A1"), Range("DaysInYear"), 4, False) = 0 Then
ActualNumber = ActualNumber + 1
End If
End If

Excel 2003 :: Referencing Multiple Items From Pivot Field In Macro?

Aug 8, 2012

I am trying to create a macro that will change all pivot fields with a certain name to the value I have the master pivot changed to. For example, I have 5 pivot tables, which each contain the field "Fruit". I want to change the 1st pivot table to "Apples", "Oranges", and "Pears" as active values, and then run the macro, making the other fruit fields also have these values. I can do it for single items, but when I need to do multiple items, I get an error message. I'm not sure how to write in VBA in order to do this.

Referencing Cell And Filtering Causes Cell Referenced To Change

Jul 10, 2014

Warhammer Quick Reference Desktop.xlsx

Its on book 2.

I'm trying to reference the Cryptek total that I got in the previous area, and put that result into the grand total army point formula. When I reference the solution cell, or even copy and paste the very same equation into it, and then proceed to filter the referenced cells change...

The obvious solution that i thought would work is write =D45 next to Cryptek in the point value column, then if I filter it SHOULD maintain the information from D45 except it doesn't.

Blank Cell Referencing

Mar 2, 2009

On the spreadsheet Im creating I am using cell referencing. The user will input data into the blank cells, and cell referencing will put them into another table. Then I add these using an IF(OR(ISBLANK formula.

However, the empty cells come through as 0's rather than a blank cell. As they're coming through as 0's, they're being calculated into the formula, and this is causing problems in my main table.
Is there a formula I can use to ensure that the empty cells being copied over do not give off any other value?

I tried to use a few different IF formulas to only let specific data go through, but it didn't work. I tried to have the blank cells produce a letter so that they wouldn't be calculted in the formula, but letters are also counted as measured values.

Referencing To Cells Next To A Given Cell?

Nov 20, 2008

My current worksheet is being built for use in Eve-Online, a game I play. In specific, I am keeping track of profit made by manufacturing different items in the game. I am trying to build it like this:

Column 20 is a list of items, and the next 7 cells to the right of each item contain the mineral requirements for that item. So C20 says Bantam Frigate, C21-C28 will all contain numbers. Now, I am trying to create a function in the upper-right cells (like A1-A8) where if I type in "Bantam Frigate" into A1, A2-A8 will fetch the numbers that I put into C21-C28.


Now, I will be working with thousands of items, so I have to make sure I name both the 'database' and the query exactly right, but that's not a problem to me. Can I make something that will reference a value from (cell+1 column right) or (cell+2 columns right)

Referencing Same Cell After Sorting.

Apr 16, 2009

Say cell A1 has 55
Cell B1 has the formula =A1

Sort only column A (the 55 now becomes in a different row)
Cell B1 chnages value because it is referencing cell A1 which has now a new value.

I want cell B1 to ALWAYS get the value from that orginal cell (i.e. 55) no mmatter where that cell gets located after sorting.

INDIRECT, and Nammed Ranges don't seem to do it.

Referencing Cell Value In A Formula

Apr 16, 2013

Here is what I have

1. Have a COUNT value in a cell (counted the number of rows with values in them).
2. A formula that needs this value (sums another set of values in another column that has the same number of rows).

Example: the COUNT value is 12, and is located in cell G5.

For simplicity sake I have a formula in cell I5 SUM(F1:F12).

Instead of directly referencing F12, I want the formula to be SUM(F1:F(G5)).

Referencing A Cell In A Worksheet.

Jul 25, 2006

I used to think I was moderately intelligent. Certainly, I thought I knew my way around a computer. Then I got the bright idea to try and learn VBA. Since then every attempt I've made in trying to produce the most basic of code results in mad fits of rage and me wanting to slit my wrists. I've read half a textbook and I keep trying to write simpler and simpler code to get some sort of result, just to give me the drive to carry on but no matter what I try it always goes completely wrong.
So before I stick me head through the computer screen, here is today's attempt. I want to select a worksheet. I then want to copy the contents of cell A2 down to A1200.

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Sheets("Calls Outcome").Visible = True
Worksheets("Calls Outcome").Activate
Range("A2").Select
Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("A2:A1200")
End Sub

I’ve stepped through the code and I get an error on “Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("A2:A1200")”. After spending several eight-hour days trying to get something out of VBA I have zero energy and zero patience.
