Macro For Hiding Columns & Printing

Dec 2, 2008

Iam an accoutant and have been given a task we have a workbook we use monthly that has about 50 columns, we have to go in and hide all the columns we do not need to print so I am wanting to create one that will hide the neccessary columsn print, unhide the columns and then hide the neccessary ones and print and so and so on.

I tried to do this by recording a macro and it sent me to visual basic and now says ithas all of these errors and i dont know how to fix them i need to do this porbabaly for about 20 different hiding and printing combinations. I am going to attach the errors i am getting when i try to debug in visual basic this is just for the first combination so i guess i need to know how to do debug for the rest of the combiantions. I am also hiding the entire column i dont know if i should be or not. I am attaching the file that i am doing the hising in as well. So like for the first i need to only keep column a,b,c (always unhidden) and then g for this time, print, unhide, then again column a,b,c active, then column u print and then unhide and on and on.

Offset Hiding Columns Macro In VBA

Aug 1, 2006

I am attempting to creating a Macro in excel with an offset feature but I am having trouble getting it to work correctly. I will include what I have created thus far, but this is what I would like it to do. There are 2 columns, A and B which are header columns for rows 2 through 75. Columns C through G contain values which are referenced in formulas in the corresponding cells in columns H through the end of the sheet. Ideally after every day I would like to run the macro to hide the next 6 columns which are showing. So on day 1 I want to run the macro to hide columns H through M. On Day 2 I would like the macro to offset and hide the columns N through S and so on. Each day an additional 6 columns (which is the all the data for the previous day) need to be hidden so that the current day's data is showing and can be easily read alongside the headings which flow vertically down columns A and B. If you could please help me with the proper form of this macro I would greatly appreciate it. This is the current macro I have made, I would like to add an offset command in there but am unsure which line to tie it to:

Sub HidePreviousDay()
'
' HidePreviousDay Macro
' Hide the Previous 6 Columns (the entire last day)
'
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+H
'
Columns("H:M").Select
Range("H2").Activate
Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = True
End Sub

Recorded Macro Incorrectly Hiding Columns

Nov 18, 2013

I've recorded a macro in which I unhide certain columns, copy and paste some information then hide those columns again. The problem is that when the macro is finished, it incorrectly hides columns K to AN. I did not record that and it's not in the code so I'm lost as to why it's happening.

The macro is as follows :

Code:

Sub COPY()
'
' COPY Macro
'
'
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Columns("K:BT").Select
Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = False
Range("M5:N24").Select
Selection.COPY

[Code]...

Why it's hiding everything from K to AN. I've tried recording the macro several times but it's just not working, no matter the order in which I hide columns when recording it.

Hiding Columns Based On Cell Value (macro)

Dec 1, 2009

I have an elaborate spreadsheet that I have made for my company. I will give a little background how I have it set up:
E6 contains a drop down menu of all products that we sell, and line items are populated based on the selection here. In columns N and O, I have a "Business Partner Costs" table that calculates a specific discount % based on the business partner.

Some of our products are sold to BPs with no discount. For these specific products, I am trying to get the BP Costs table to disappear, or hide.

Basically, I want something like: "=if(or(e6=ae2,e6=ae7,e6=ae12,e6=ae13,etc),hide columns N&O,show columns N&O)" in macro format.

Macro For Hiding Rows Containing Empty Cells Through Different Columns

Sep 4, 2013

I created a macro that analyzes some datasets and according to different parameters it puts an X at the side of every cell that goes out of parameters. These Xs are all in columns named the same way for it to be easier to find. What I want to do is to write some macro that will hide every row where the data did not go out of parameters to be able to easily see where it did. In the following example it would need to hide the second row since there are no Xs in that row. One of the problems I'm having is that the amount of columns and rows is variable.

Data
Data
Functional Upset
Data
Data
Functional Upset

#
#
X
#
#

[Code] .......

Below is the piece of code that I created to try to do this (G has the value for the amount of rows). I think it is working but it is either taking too long since it has to sometimes go through over 20k lines as much times as it needs to to cover all the rows that contain Xs or its getting stuck for some reason.

Code:
Worksheets(2).Range("I3:I" & G).EntireRow.Hidden = True
K = 0
Do Until Worksheets(2).Range("I1").Offset(0, K) = ""
If Worksheets(2).Range("I1").Offset(0, K) = "Functional Upset" Then

[Code] ......

Hiding / Showing Columns ....

Jul 7, 2008

Here's what I'm trying to do -

There's a sheet called "Main" and 38 other sheets that shows the data (these 38 sheets all have the exact same structure/layout). Let's say these 38 sheets are called "country1", "country2", .... "country38".

Based on user input in cell J10 in "Main", I want to show only the relevant columns in all of the 38 country sheets. Specifically,

If J10 in sheet "Main" = "Option 1", hide all columns in all 38 sheets except columns A to W.

If J10 in sheet "Main" = "Option 2", hide all columns in all 38 sheets except columns Y to AU.

If J10 in sheet "Main" = "Option 3", hide all columns in all 38 sheets except columns AW to BS.

If J10 in sheet "Main" = "Option 4", hide all columns in all 38 sheets except columns BV to CQ.

If J10 sheet "Main = "ShowAll", show all columns in all 38 sheets....

Cell J10 in "Main" will be a drop down bar with the 5 choices.....

Hiding All Columns That Contain Only Zeros And / Or 1s?

Oct 1, 2013

I have a large table with an unknown number of columns and an unknown number of rows. The table contains no formulas and no errors - only text, numeric values and empty cells. The top row contains text (headers).

Column I contains below the header only zeros and/or 1s. However, a few entries in Column I might also be empty cells. Same is true for columns I+4 (i.e., M), I+8 (i.e., Q), I+12 (i.e., U), etc.

How could I hide ALL such columns (i.e., I, M, Q, U, etc.) with a VBA macro?

Hiding Columns With Zero Value In Table

Nov 23, 2006

I was wondering if there was a simple function that will hide all the columns which have Zero value thoughout a pricing spreadsheet.

The different elements of the pricing have lead to 60+ columns, upto 75% may not contain a value or may display "false", it is making it very difficult to view and print. At present I am manually auto filterig to see if values are present in the column and then hiding the columns if they are blank (a real pain in the backside).

I have a some simple code that doesn't seem to want to work ALL the time. Granted, sometimes it works but not always. The first code is to hide a bunch of columns and the second is to display those again. I put in the If/Then to avoid trying to hide columns already hidden (I thgouht that had to be done - true). Anyone see any problems with this code. The error I get is:

"Run-time error '1004':

Hiding Empty Columns In Range

Jul 3, 2014

I am trying to hide columns in a range, "P8:ET1087" but it isn't working. After I autofilter a value, every row will be hidden except for the rows where the value is found. This is always 6 rows, won't be more or less.

The 6 cells in every column are the same and contain from 1 to 6:
Text
Text
Date
Number
Text
Date

What I am trying to do is to hide the column if all cells in that column are blank/empty after it's autofiltered. That for the 135 columns, from P to ET.

I was messing around with the following code:

Hiding Rows And Columns At The Same Time

Aug 17, 2006

I have a macro that works great to hide rows with zeros in a specific column on one sheet. It is below:

Sub Hide_Rows()
Dim i As Integer
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="Yourpassword"
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
For i = 9 To 408
If Sheets("Tasks and times"). Range("H" & i).Value = 0 Then
Rows(i & ":" & i).EntireRow.Hidden = True
End If
Next i
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="Yourpassword"
End Sub

My problem is that now I want to adapt it to also hide columns on another sheet in the same workbook (named OBS). This is because in the first sheet rows 9 through 408 are used for data but that range is divided into 25 sets of 16 rows. Each set corresponds to a column on the other sheet starting at column C. I would like the corresponding column to hide when the first row of each set (i.e. rows 9, 25, 41, etc.) are hidden.

Hiding Columns Based On Criteria

Dec 7, 2006

I need to run this funtion from the starting column (N) to the last column ( dynamic).

Sub HideUnits()
Dim rngData As Range, rngHide As Range
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
With Sheet1
.Rows(1).Insert
.Range("B1").Value = "Temp"
Set rngData = .Range("N1:N" & .Cells(Rows.Count, "N").End(xlUp).Row)
rngData. AutoFilter field:=1, Criteria1:="*Units"
Set rngHide = rngData.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
rngData.AutoFilter
rngHide.EntireRow.Hidden = True
.Rows(1).Delete
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

As you might be able to tell I need to hide all the columns with a specific word in the heading. I'm pretty sure I'd need to loop this somehow, but I'm not good with VBA.

Error Hiding Multiple Columns In Vba

Oct 23, 2007

I am using an area of 43 Rows by ~ 150 Columns to display the results of an advancedfilter process. I have a trigger on row 44 for each column (which is either 1 or 0, depending on if any of the rows in the column were filled with data. If any column is completely empty I would like to hide it. I am getting an error if the majority of the ~ 150 columns are empty and should be hidden. Does anyone know if there is a maximum number of columns that can be hidden each time a macro is run?

My piece of code to accomplish this is as follows:

For i = 4 To 150
If Worksheets("RegMatrix"). Cells(44, i) = 1 Then
Worksheets("RegMatrix").Columns(i).AutoFit
Else
Worksheets("RegMatrix").Columns(i).ColumnWidth = 1
Worksheets("RegMatrix").Columns(i).Hidden = True
On Error Resume Next
End If
Next

Right now, once i gets to about 100 the rest of the columns are not hidden.
