Macro To Select Variably Sized Range
Feb 25, 2014
I have a macro that contains a line:
Range("BB1011:CX1064").Select
The number of columns selected remains the same, but the number of rows changes. The indicator that tells me how many rows to select is contained in cell F1007 and in this example contains "54".
How do I adjust the macro to change the number of rows to select dependent on the value in F1007?

I'm in the middle of building a code that will look at the value in Sheet: "DATA" column "J", for each row that matches a criteria that I pull from a cell - Sheet: "Test" Cell: "C1".
The number of rows varies. I want to paste columns: "I2, K2:P2, U2:AJ2" when the value in Sheet: "DATA" column "J" matches the cell "C1".
I'm using a Command button to click every time I want to generate the filtered data. And I would prefer the code to always copy data starting at Sheet: "Test" Cell: "K2".
I've copied, below, my test code that I have so far which only copies row 2 from the Sheet: "Data", and copies it into Sheet: "Test", starting at K2.
VB:
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
If Sheets("DATA").Range("J2").Value = Sheets("Test").Cells(1, 3) Then
Sheets("DATA").Range("I2,K2:P2,U2:AJ2").Copy
Sheets("Test").Cells(2, 11).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues, Operation:=xlNone
End If
End Sub

A text file is imported to Excel Worksheet. I use this code to Select/Copy a section of that import;
Selection. Offset(4, 0).Resize(15, 9).Select
Selection.Copy
'The number 15 would mean there are 15 rows of items.
But there are not always 15 rows. There might be 18 rows, but because the code is set to 15 it will miss selecting 3 rows preceding, or if the code is set to 12 it will not select the full item list. However, whatever the amount of rows of items, be it 15,2 18 or 100 for example, directly under the item amounts is a "marker" purposely put in the file before the import for other search functions.
Above that marker is the total Item count! So I need a code to search for that marker, then move up 1 cell and whatever that number is, if "15" would then determine the correct row count to Resize
The "marker" is : ^3^
So the full code is:

I have a macro that I run repeatedly in a certain type of spreadsheet that does an export on a selection, pulls up a "Save As" message box and saves as a text file. There are 9 sheets in the workbook that contain the same data analysis for a set of samples, the only difference between them being the number of data (e.g. some may have 1500, 1400, 1600, etc.). I only select three columns of data to export (I6:K????) that contain counts (1,2,3,....), x-coordinates and y-coordinates. The counts column (I) uses a formula that only counts if there is an x-coordinate next to it (Col J).
[Code].....
Generally, what I do to make quick work out of selecting the variable ranges is to select Sheets 03-11 (the first nine sheets) and select K6:I6 (starting w/ K6). Then, on each individual sheet, I do CTRL+SHIFT+DOWN to select all the relevant data (if I started my selection with I6, then it would select all cells that contained formulas which may or may not have x,y-coordinates adjacent to them). Once the data is selected (I6:K????), I run the export macro and save the data as text. I would like a macro that can automate the selection for each Sheet 03-11, excluding Sheets "all", "data" and "summary", and run the export macro, first prompting me for a file location and a file prefix. When the text file is saved, it uses the file prefix and Worksheet name to build the filename, i.e. "pathprefix_wkshtname".
I've attached an example workbook : 20120511_Au-cit_pH5_test.xlsx‎

I am trying to write a Macro that will insert a Text Box that auto-fits the shape of a cell to hide its content. Once finished, the Macro will need to lock the cell and the text box so the contents of the cell are hidden. The idea is that I want to share a spreadsheet with someone but want to hide individual cells for various reason.
Sheet1A1SAMPLE DATA2sample3sample4HIDDEN5sampleExcel 2007
I tried to record a macro as a starting point but it recorded nothing. I searched around and it seems to be an issue without a solution.
I could obviously change the formatting and the contents of the cell but the idea is to preserve the contents if possible.

Some very basic
Cells(293, 1).Select
Nothing complicated at all in that. Yet if I put it in the code for a particular Excel sheet, it doesn't always work.
Same with
Range("A293").Select
(Yet wierdly, to confuse matters, very occasionally it does work)
If I put exactly the same code in Procedure 1 in Module 1 and call Procedure 1, I never get an error, and the code executes absolutely fine.
But I have to keep setting up procedures and referencing them for, quite frankly, code which should work no problem.

Is there a way to prompt the user to pick an input composed of the values in a given column. Also, if there are repeats in the column, those need to be ignored.

I'm in charge of taking a report; streamlining its functions; and automating future reporting.
I'm using a database and some of the reporting function Access has. For another variation I'm forced to export the query to excel and transpose the vertical layout horizontally.
I'm making the entire process automated via a macro. The code is too long to post in its entirety but here is an example of what I'm trying to accomplish:

I have a protected worksheet with a mixture of locked and unlocked cells, and I'd like to provide an option to allow the user to select a large range of mixed (locked and unlocked) cells and, in the unlocked cells only, pre-populate with a standard formula.
I've got most of it working, but what I need is the specific code that allows the user to specify the range of cells they want the macro to act on.

I have tried various syntaxes but nothing is working for me. I am using XL 2000 so it doesn't have the relative address function in the macro! So here is what I have
ActiveCell.Range("A1").Select
ActiveCell.R1C1
Range("R1C1:R1C85").Select
Selection.Copy
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues
Application. ScreenUpdating = True
Range("A1").Select
I need to be able to select from the originating cell which will always be in "T" Col thru to "CZ" col but will be on different rows.

I have made a sheet where the user can insert/delete rows in a certain intervall of rows. The upper row is 17, that is I have named the cell "First" and then the last row "Last" and then I am using integers:
Dim intStartrow As Integer
Dim intLastrow As Integer
intStartrow = ActiveSheet.Range("First").Row + 1
intLastrow = ActiveSheet.Range("Last").Row - 1
So it is only possible to add/delete rows if the markerer is in between the above rows.
Now I would like to select the rows, from first to last. Since the rows are never the same, users add and delete rows all the time, I can not use
Range("A17:Z49").Select
Can I somehow make a range selection using the Integers, somethimg like
With ActiveSheet
Selection."intStartrow:intLastrow"
End With

I download some data from a commercial real estate site about properties and their owners and process it in Excel. Out of 1,000 records, maybe 20 or so will have the data end up in the wrong fields. This is an artifact of the data source the commercial site uses.
Anyway, what I need to do is to get the data back in the right fields. So, I sort the data to pull together at the top of the sheet all the records with data where it's not supposed to be. So far, so good.
Now from one data download to another the number of records which end up in the sort will be different. And, here's the problem.
I try to record a macro mimicking my selection of the range of the data that needs to be moved. Fine, no problem. And, on the same dataset it works like a charm. But as soon as I put a different dataset into the spreadsheet with a different number of records that need to be corrected the macro fails.
Apparently, this is because the macro has been defined with a certain range of cells selected in the first data set and this same range is used for subsequent datasets with different numbers of errant records.
Basically, what I'm trying to record in a macro is the Shift/Control End and Shift/control arrow commands. But they don't record as such.

I am trying to find a table of text, and copy it to another worksheet. I want to copy it as a range, not as rows or columns. Using Find, I can get to the 1st row of the table. Using Find again, I can get to the last row of the table.
What I don’t know how to do next is select the range.
For example; The table is in cells A10:F20. “Start” is in cell A10, and “End” is in cell A20.
Starting from cell A1, how do I find and select the range A10:F20.?
I will be doing this twice in the same macro, as there are 2 tables. Each of the 2 tables has the same “Start” and “End” text, as described above. The 2 tables will not always be located in the same location within the original WkSht.

How would a code look like to select a range with a column header on top. in the code you provided, it selected the entire W column. How would you select the range given that the W column was called Address?
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Range("W1").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Name = "Problem_Area"

I cant seem to get to work together in the same macro but that work great seperated. I need them to be in the same macro. The first just simply copy's text from one workbook to another:
Sub Test2()
ActiveSheet. Range("a1").Copy _
Destination:=Workbooks("punchlist.xls"). Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count,1).End(xlup).Offset(1,0)
End Sub
That worked ok but I needed to change it to the "active cell" instead of cell "a1". So then this line of code was made:
Dim userInputCell As Range
On Error Resume Next
Set userInputCell = Application.InputBox("Use the mouse to select a cell on any sheet", type:=8)
On Error Goto 0
If userInputCell Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Cancel pressed"
Else
Msgbox "You selected " & userInputCell.Address(,,,True)
End If
The second code works just the way I want it but it doesnt copy over the text to the other workbook. I assume the 2 codes need to be together but I cant get it to work without errors. I also need the text to copy over without changing the borders on either workbook.

I have used the macro recorder to generate the select range and clear part of the following macro.
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Dim test As Worksheet
Sheets("Industry").Copy After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)

I get the runtime error 1004 - Select method of range class failed.
I have used similar script in other macros without error.

I have a client list in a table in my excel sheet. I currently enter the clients in a sheet that looks similar to a form. After the clients info is in this Form I have a button with a macro to copy the client info into a table on another sheet. This works perfectly.
Now I have another form that will retrieve the customers info in a click of a button in order to make changes to the client. Ei:I now have a second phone number and I want to update that client's info. What I want to do from here is take the info in Cell B2 (clients full Name), Do a vLookup in the "Saved Clients Table" in a Range within my table range. (Range: Saved Clients and the client's full name is in $A:$A and called "Clients Full Name" and once that name is found I need to select the cell in column C and the corresponding row.
This will allow me to copy the info in my form, Paste it in Transpose to the cell that is selected. (I already have that code)
Here are screenshots of what I am trying to accomplish. [URL] .......

I am trying to find a macro that can search a sheet for any cell that contains the text "Not on AOI" selects a range that contains that cell, 81 rows below, and 2000 columns to the right, then cuts the selection and pastes it 162 rows below the original cell where the text was found. What's hard is that the number of columns between the "Not on AOI" cells is variable.
I'm very new to excel macros and the parts I think I've put together are:
Cells.Find("Not on AOI", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:= _
xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:= _
xlNext, MatchCase:=True).Activate

I need a non-VBA solution.

I have a document with about 300 comment boxes, and I needed to enlarge each one to make the information visibly fit in the region. I did this, and was happy.
Then I opened the file on another computer, added a few rows, saved the file, and re-opened it on this one, and all the comment boxes in the original rows (the 300 i had, not the 15 I added later) had been reduced in size and not all the text is visible. Why did this happen? Is there an easy way to re-size all the boxes without doing them one at a time?

I have a macro that checks data in a worksheet and manipulates the data.
the problem that I am finding is that the worksheet data, which is copied from another file, is different sizes - eg: in one file the data may be from a1 to f2890 but another file the data may be from a1 to f5990.
When the file is bigger I have noted that the macro does not check the rows between 2890 to 5990.
How can i get it do check all the cells no matter how big the file is?

I have a command button on sheet MASTER. When the workbook is Activated I want it to check and see if in sheet COSTM, cell B3 there are the words "Project Number", if so then show command button (ClearPrevious), if not, don't show. Also, when the If statement is finished, then the workbook needs to end up showing the sheet MASTER. I have tried various codes and none work, or they are on perpetual loops. I know this has got to be simple, but cannot find an example to take from to solve the issue. Would appreciate any help offered. Below is code I have right now.
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
If Sheets("COSTM").Select Range("B3").Select = "Project Name:" Then
Me.ClearPrevious.Visible = True
Else
Me.ClearPrevious.Visible = False
End If
Sheets("MASTER").Select
