Im writing a macro and have a cell activated (using ActiveCell). If I want to select this cell (the activated one - i.e., k3) along with the 2 cells next to it (i.e., l3, and m3), how would i go about doing that?
I'm wanting to shift 3 cells downward and I know how to shift them down, but dont know how to select the cells i want.
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:

The code that is not working and bringing up an error is:

I'm attempting to match a name with the row and column numbers of data that is laid out in a grid format. It looks something like this:
Denson
Matthews
Smith
[Code]....
This works just fine, except for the fact that once in awhile the same name will appear in the grid twice, and the row and column returned will be off (it will return the row for one of the Smiths, for example, and the column for the other).
I know why this is occurring so I'm looking for a better way to do this. The good part is that I don't necessarily need both locations returned for each "Smith" ; I just need the correct row and column for at least one of the instances. I'm looking for a better way to do this.
I need to accomplish selecting a range using variables for the starting cell and ending cell rows and columns.
Pseudo code (how I'd like the syntax to be, but isn't):
Worksheets(mysheet).range(startCellRow, startCellCol : endCellRow,endCellCol).Select
With Selection

End With
I have various lists of data (using Data > List > Create List...) that do not always have the first cell in the list in column A. I have spent quite a bit of time searching the internet to try and find a macro that will work the same as... Data > Sort > Sort By: Col xx > Then by: Col xy.
Dave supplied me with a macro that will sort a range by the first column:
Sub SortThis()
With ActiveCell. CurrentRegion
.Sort Key1:=. Cells(1, 1), Order1:=xlAscending, _
Header:=xlNo, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom
End With
End Sub
I have recorded macro that does the same and looked at the code but this uses Range and specifies the cells to be sorted. I have not been able to work out how to modify the code Dave posted to do a minor sort by the second column. I am after a macro that will determine the range (could be a varying number of columns and rows in different places). For however many columns there may be the macro will sort the full width and height by the first column and then the second column, with all the data within a particular row not being split.
Continuing with a large Macro I am trying to peice together, I have reached a hurdle where I need to hide all columns to the left of the ActiveCell (which varies week to week) back to column B.
I have the following code which selects the correct number of cells to the left of the active cell but doesn't highlight the whole columns - just 3 cells for each column (very odd)
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Range("A1").Select
Range(Selection, "B" & Selection.Column).Select
I'm sure it must be something to do with the
Selection.Column
part as when I write
Selection.Row
it just does 1 cell for each column (as to be expected)
I should mention I already have the coding to hide the columns, just need a way to highlight the relevant ones.
Is there a quick way to delete "N" rows from the active cell regardless of the content of the cells in those rows? I import text files into excel then frequently have to go through them and delete rows of nonimportant data.
For example if cell A57 is currently selected can I run a macro that will delete the next 10 rows?
I want to be able to allow a user to insert a number of rows (they would specify the number) into a worksheet, at the active cell location. I also need the same number of rows to be inserted into the same worksheet (but much lower down) The location of which is to be governed by the location of the original inserted rows.
Having created the new rows I need all the formulas from the row ABOVE the active cell to be copied into all the newly created rows.
example
If active cell is A5 I want user to be able to run a macro which asks them how many rows they wish to insert. (Assume the user asks for 7).
The macro then inserts that number of rows, (starting at row 5). And additionally adds 7 rows at a location further down the worksheet (say row 105). The formulas from the row above the active cell are then copied into all the newly created rows.
2nd example
If the active cell was A9 then the macro would add 7 rows, starting at row 9 and additionally add 7 rows starting at row 109. Then formulas added.

I'm looking for a piece of code, which would activate a certain Range i.e. the start of which would be in column A and the End in Column G. My problem is that the activated range of cells shuld be exactly in the same row as the currently active cell i.e. active cell B3 -> activated range A3:G3 .

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.
I am making a spreadsheet in which I have been asked to have certain column greyed-out based on an answer that was given in a dropdown menu. Specifically, a dropdown menu in column D asks if the client was a Youth or an Adult. Depending on what the anwer is, other columns in the spreadsheet will be greyed-out; different ones for each answer. My problem is, I need this to occur for the active row being editted. For example: The first row that the user can input data into is row 4. If D4 is answered with "Adult" then certain other columns are greyed-out. However, if the next time the user updates the spreadsheet with information for a different client (now entering information in row 5) and they select "Youth" for column D5, then different columns get greyed-out. The columns that are greyed-out will depend upon the answer for the dropdown menu in column D for whatever row is actively being editted.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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.

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

When i click commandbutton1:
Copy Active cell (columnB), next cell (ColumnC), next cell (ColumnI), next cell (ColumnO) all of which exist in the same row.
I will then paste the values into another sheet in the next available row which i think i have mastered. the cells will be pasted next to each other i.e. instead of column B,C,I,O they will be pasted as column A,B,C,D.
My dilema is i am not sure if you can use multiple cell offsets to perform this or if it is better to use a loop.
I have some working code that makes a number of changes to an excel report using VBA. Each time I execute the code I am taken to a different point in the excel report (depending on user inputs). What I now need to do is to change the cell selection from a single cell to three cells.
For example, my code may result in cell B100 being the active cell. What I now want to do is change the selection from B100 to the range B100:B103. I would have thought I could write something simple like:
Sheets("Group").Range("ActiveCell:Offset(0, 2)").Select
I have tried every variation of the above but I can't seem to make it run. Where am I going wrong?
So the constraints are
1. if there's a value in name or names count => must be at least one value in test1 or test2
2. last value in names count must be equal to the sum of trues in B1:B4 Problem Is it possible to identify once any of the cells in A9:D12 are activated that once that range is deactivated I run the check to make sure the constraints are met, and populate default values in the case they are not?
Is it possible to identify once any of the cells in A9:D12 are activated that once that range is deactivated I run the check to make sure the constraints are met, and populate default values in the case they are not?
Trying to figure it out with a some combination of: checking if the last cell I was in was in the range and I am no longer in that range; using the selection change change event?

I'm trying to select a range of cells whereby the range is dependent on the currently active cell. I know you can use the "Activesheet.Range("A1:D2").select" method to select a range where the cells are always the same, but I'm after a dynamic selection where the values can be programmatically altered depending on some other result.
For example, let's say that I make a certain cell active (based on the result of some other formula), and I want to select the range of cells in the adjacent column that is X rows deep. Putting this into context, imagine the resultant active cell is B2, I then want to select the range C2:C10, but if the active cell is E10, the range selected would be F10:F18 (if active cell is X, then range would be Y:Z).
The Offset function would allow me to position the cell based on the current active one, but it doesn't let me select a range. The Range function only lets you choose either hard coded or index cells, e.g. "Range(cells(y,z), cells(y,z)).select", but this is still no good because I'd need to know the index value of the active cell (can this be done?).
can someone make a code for a range.Name = "match" as soon as active then that active cell is to be copied to cell C2.

How can I convert all cell values in active range to text format without losing the actual value.
For Ex.
0123 will remain 0123
07/12/2014 will remain 07/1/2014
3453 will remain 3453
regardless of there previous format. Currently I am doing this manually for every column before creating a load file for SQL database.
The rows will differ depending on the Active Cell that's selected and I don't know how to specify this.
The range I want to copy is from Column B to DA on the worksheet ("Staff") which I want to paste to another worksheet ("Leavers"). This is as far as I got
'FindRemove = lstRemove.Value
'If FindRemove = "" Then End
' Goes to the start of the Data column
'Sheets("Staff").Select
'Range("B4").Select
' Tests current cell against FindRemove
'Do
'If ActiveCell.Value = FindRemove Then
'Call CopyPerson

'Loop Until ActiveCell.Value = ""
