Maintain Range When Inserting Columns

Sep 30, 2009

I 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.

Prevent The Users From Inserting Columns Within A Certain Range?

Jan 7, 2010

I am instantiating Excel 2003 from vb.net and populating the spreadsheet from SQL. The workbook itself will be maintained even when the .Net program is inactive (so that the column headers are established and saved.) Is it possible to prevent the users from inserting columns within a certain range?

Macro That Allow For Inserting New Columns?

Oct 17, 2012

I have recorded a basic macro that allows me to copy a formulas in cells CF11 to CH11, and it pastes it into cells in columns CJ to CL. Copy of code is below if you need it.

The issue I have is that I need to insert new coumns into the worksheet, and I need to copy the formulas from columns CF to CH, and they will now need to pasted to columns CN to CP. Note that this is a monthly report where we keep the prior months, so each month will need to add new columns. There are 8 tabs in the workbook, and they all use the same macro, just over different rows (columns all line up).

Is there a way that I can get the macro to paste into the correct column without me having to adjust the macro each time?

Copy of code is as follows:

Range("CF11:CH11").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("CJ11").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormulas, Operation:=xlNone, _
SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
Range("CJ20:CL20").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormulas, Operation:=xlNone, _

[code].....

Inserting Breaks In Two Sorted Columns

Jul 13, 2009

I have been struggling to figure this out for several days now and i don't really know where to go from here.

I have 2 columns and i need to break them up at certain points.

The attached excel file should hopefully be clear enough to show what i mean.

The first tab is how the data starts the second tab is how i want it to look.

To clarify i need to break it after each change in the first column. ie from 1 to 2.

Furthermore, i need to break the "sub groups" the second column up after 15, and 30. I will never have a number larger than 32 in the second column.

I think the excel file will clear up what i mean.

Inserting Columns Without Changing Formulas?

Feb 7, 2014

I have a very simple inventory spreadsheet that I used to keep track of certain products. The issue is that I often have to insert new columns and when I do, the formulas get convoluted. Is there a trick to making them follow the structure of the formula before?

My formula is =SUM(GT4:GU4) and appears in the Running Total column. When I insert two columns - a white column where an order will be inserted, as well as a running total column. When I perform the insert, the formula for the inserted columns, as well as the set of columns immediately to the right require corrections:

Inserted columns: =SUM(GT4:GW4) [Should be GV4:GW4]
Columns to the right: =SUM(GV4:GY4) [Should be GX4:GY4]

I know how to manipulate the formulas correctly, I would like to keep a clean file for my predecessor.

VBA Macro Not Inserting Columns Properly

Jul 3, 2008

I have a VBA macro I recorded that won't insert and copy columns into the proper areas. When I run this, It inserts every column all grouped together.

For example: I want to insert a column before column D, and give certain cells formulas. Instead, it inserts it before column C. The whole macro seems to, when ran, insert EVERYTHING before the range of data I am trying to split up.

Here is the
Sub Macro1()

Range("C3:F3").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Jan-2008"

Range("K3:N3").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Mar-2008"
Range("O3:R3").Select

I have a spreadsheet that I can modify. It currently has a three product column but I need to insert 2 or 3 more columns to make 5 plus the total at the end. It also have a summary sheet. I insert the 2 columns and somehow got the formulas flowing. However when I hit the summary page its not showing results for those two new columns in the total. I am lost. I wish I could post the sheet. Its a multiple product break-even analysis exercise.

Deleting And Inserting Columns - Reached Its Limit

Apr 29, 2009

lets say i have 200 used columns. if i delete 150 of them and then (without saving the file) try to add 100 more i get an excel has reached its limit error. theoretically 200-150+100 = 150 columns, which should be well within the 258 column limit. but excel still gives me the error )its like its calculating 200+100=300 > 258). HOWEVER, if i save the file after deleting, i dont get any errors at all. is this a "feature" of excel and if so is there anyway of circumventing it? because i dont want to save the file prior to adding the columns (i do the whole thing in vba). actually i dont want to save the file at all unless the user click on the save button or choose save/save as from the menu.

Inserting Columns With Numbers Relative To Previous Data

Jan 19, 2012

the following issue:

I have a spreadsheet of questionnaire responses which range from 1-7

For example:

Respondent Q1

1 4
2 3
3 7
4 6

So each row is a new respondent and each column is their response from the scale.

What I need to do is code the responses into a different form. I need them to be represented as follows:

Respondent Answer1 Answer2 Answer3 Answer4 Answer 5 Answer 6 Answer 7

1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0
2 0 0 1 0 0 0 0

So that each number then represents the place on the scale from which it was chosen.

I tried recording a macro but I think this requires something a lot more complex.

Inserting Entire Blank Columns In Pre-existing Worksheets

Jul 7, 2007

firstly i am cross-posting this topic so here is the URL to the same thread in a different forum.

[url]

whats up everybody? i have to use two excel worksheets that someone else already created to make CSV (comma seperated value) files. these CSV files are to be dumped into a database. the problem is that the table has more fields than the spreadsheet does (the spreadsheet has 3 fields - network, mask, size - and the table has 10 fields). i can insert one entire column before (to the left of) network (for the ID field in the table) without a problem, but when i try to insert entire blank columns after size (to the right of the pre-existing columns) it only makes columns for the first 14 rows. i know this because when i save it as a CSV file there are only 6 extra commas for the first 14 rows. is there a way to insert an entire blank column for the entire spreadsheet (as in all the way to the bottom)? i dont want to have to manually type in all those commas. i am using excel 2002.

Prevent Excel From Adjusting Formulas When Inserting New Columns Of Raw Data

Nov 12, 2013

I have a sheet with 2 tabs. On the first tab is my data and the 2nd tab is the formula.

This is my formula;

=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(A3,Data!$A:$AD,23,0)),"",(VLOOKUP(A3,Data!$A:$AD,23,0)))

When I insert a new column at 'A' the formula changes (as below)

=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(A3,Data!$B:$AE,23,0)),"",(VLOOKUP(A3,Data!$B:$AE,23,0)))

How do i stop the reference changing from 'Data!$A:$AD' to 'Data!$B:$AE' when inserting the column?

Inserting Range Above Selected Row

Mar 8, 2012

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.

Inserting Into Range Names

Jun 28, 2012

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)

Looping Through Range And Inserting Formula Where Condition Met

Feb 6, 2014

I 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".

Maintain History Of Exam Results

Mar 29, 2007

I want to maintain a history of exam results held on different dates

For this purpose I created a file with three sheets named Inputs, Working & result history. Description of all sheet is as follows :

“Inputs” Used as main Input file to feed marks for each subject on certain exam date.
“Working” Linked with sheet inputs and perform calculations ( total marks, % etc)
“Result History” Date wise history of exam results based on sheet (working).

Required Solution Steps:

1.Score entered for different subjects in Sheet “Inputs” for a particular exam date.
2.Obtained marks are totaled and score % calculated based on scores entered in sheet inputs.
3.Date wise history of exam results recorded based on working sheet.

To transfer/copy/paste results from “Working” sheet to “Result history” sheet I recorded a macro which is linked with a button. This macro copy record from working sheet and paste it as value to result history sheet....

Maintain Column Header And Footer

Apr 23, 2007

This may seem like an odd request for help, and there may be other options that I am unaware of but....

I am looking to maintain a top header row and a bottom footer row. The sheet is 300 rows deep and If I put a freeze pane or split, the header or footer ends up scrolling off of the viewable screen.

The header range is A1:G6 The footer range is A301:G304. I am looking for 2 sub()'s. The first will check the DATA range A7:G300 and hide all empty rows between the header and footer ranges. The worksheet will display lets say 23 rows of data if the user needs to enter data in a new row I would like them to be able to run a macro that will hide the first data row and unhide the first empty data row below the last row that is not empty (in the data range), and a second macro that would do just the reverse. If there were any hidden rows at the top of the data range, the first hidden row above the first unhidden row would be unhidden, and the last row of the data range would then become a hidden row.

In essence it would allow the user to scroll through the data range and never loose sight of the header range & footer range.

Maintain Formula Links After A Sort

Nov 27, 2007

I'm going to attempt to explain the problem I am having with a project in Excel. I have tried to search using several different terms but have not been successful in finding an answer to my problem. I came close with a MS help document entitled "HOW TO: Sort Cells Without Sorting Linked Cells in Excel 2000". But that document does not directly address the solution. I think there is a clue there but I can't figure it out.

What I'm trying to do:
I am trying to sort a data list that is one worksheet without affecting the links I have created to that data in a second worksheet. I have two worksheets; one holds the database, or list data; the other is a formatted price list where I have created links to the data in the first sheet. The idea is that I want to be able to manipulate the data in the data list and make changes to it while keeping the price list in a fixed format but with updated prices. I am using relative links and I have had some success in the past with these links automatically updating when inserting rows or cells, or moving the cell containing the formula. But this time I am trying to sort the data. When I sort the data the formulas in the linked cells simply point to the same cell reference as they did before the sort, producing the wrong results. I want the links to follow the referenced cells so that the results remain the same on the price list even when the rows in the data change position. For example:

The data on the worksheet named "Database" is in a list from A10:P65. I sort this list by two columns, first by Categories then by ManuPartNo. After I sorted the list I went to the worksheet named "Price List" and set up links to the cells in the data list that contained the correct information for my items. Some of my items are a combination of two or more rows from the data list. This works fine. If I make a change to the data in the list the price list automatically updates. If I insert a row or column to the data list the formulas on the Price List continue to work just fine. But, if I sort the data again, the formulas on the Price List no longer point to the correct cells in the data list. The formulas remain unchanged, but the rows of data move. I expected the formulas to update just like they do when I insert a row or move a block of data with cut and paste. Is there a way to force Excel to follow the rows as they move after a sort? Excel does this automatically when inserting rows. Why not with sorts? Where can I go to learn more about how to do this?

I am working on a macro to insert a row below if a cell with a validation list has an item from the list selected. The new row needs to maintain the same format and formulas as the original row. To explain this better I have attached a very generic spreadsheet Called Custom Order. In this example cell A3 has a validation list. If the user selects one of the items in the list... I need the macro to insert a row below and maintain the format and formulas found in row A3.
