Referencing Sheet Code Names By Variable

Jul 18, 2006

I have a set of worksheets (Sheet31 through Sheet49 by codename) produced by a machine in the lab. I want to create a summary sheet that references cells in those worksheets.

Rather than go through the annoyance of doing this manually 40+ times I'm working on creating a macro to populate the summary sheet for me.

This is what I have so far

For J = 31 To 49
ResultSht = SheetJ.Name
Sheet1.Activate
ActiveSheet.Range("A4").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Select

It hangs up on the "SheetJ.Name" however. My objective is to be using the object SheetJ, where the object SheetJ is the codename of the results sheet I'm trying to reference (for example, in the first pass through the loop it would be Sheet31). Could someone point out my mistake in this object reference?

Referencing To Sheet Names While Consolidating Data From Various Sheets

Feb 23, 2014

I am writing a macro to consolidate data from different worksheets in more than one Summary Sheets.

My workbook has quite a number of worksheets, from different department e.g. OPS001, OPS002,OPS003, ADMIN001, ADMIN002, ADMIN003 and so on.

I want data from OPS001, OPS002 and OPS003 to go on one sheet e.g. "Summary-OPS" and data from ADMIN001, ADMIN002 and ADMIN003 to go on the other sheet name "Summary-Admin"

When I am working on Summary-Ops sheet I want to copy data from sheets starting with name "OPS" and so on.

Basic Cell Referencing - Return Correct Names And Values On Another Sheet?

May 13, 2013

Here's the data table being referenced

Rank
Week Ending
Name
Value

1
1/1
Apple
100

[Code] ........

Now on another sheet, I want to return the top two 'Name's and their values like below:

Name
Value

There is a fluctuating amount of rows in the first table, too. So what formula can I use to return the correct names and values on another sheet?

I'm thinking it will use some form of concatenate for the first and use a sumifs function for the value column..

Variable Sheet Names In VBA

Feb 26, 2008

Running Windows CP; Excel 2003

The Board looks full of some interesting issues today.

I'm working on a workbook that hides and unhides a lot of columns depending on the month the user has selected. No problems here.

The sheets are named regionally, ie National 2008, California 2008 etc. The user is able to select the month and the year from separate combo boxes.

So when 2009 comes around I will need to rewrite many lines of code to point the VBA to the new worksheet names like National 2009, California 2009. My question is, is there a way to reference either variable worksheet names in the VBA or some other manner in which to write the code so I don't need to rewrite every year change?

I currently reference the sheets something like Sheets ("National 2008").Range("H:H").EntireColumn.Hidden=True

Reference Sheets With Variable Sheet Names

Dec 4, 2007

I have a workbook with multiple sheets. There is an overview sheet and then 14 sheets allowing for 14 days worth of schedule information. There are then 3 sheets following the 14 days to total some information. The workbook users frequently change the sheet names of the 14 sheets to reflect days of the week.

I'm creating a copy for distribution that takes the active workbook and copies the values to a new workbook. There are columns that I would like to delete from the 14 day sheets and that would be easy enough if the sheet names were never changed.

The code I'm using currently follows (my thanks to Turtle 44 for helping on that section)

Sub Copy_Visible_Sheets()
Dim arr() As String
Dim i As Integer
Dim WB As Workbook
Dim WS As Worksheet
Set WB = ActiveWorkbook
Application. ScreenUpdating = False

'Make sure template is saved as .xls
If Not ThisWorkbook.Saved Then
MsgBox "Please save this workbook before generating a Client Copy."
Else

VBA Code For Listing The Sheet Names Of Deleted Sheets

Oct 20, 2008

I have a workbook with 20+ sheets in it, I add sheets and delete sheets on a daily basis, except for one sheet that is like my summary sheet.

Is there a code, formula, or magic spell that will list the names of the sheets that I have deleted? For instance, if my workbook has 50 sheets and I delete 49 of them, I want to see cells A1 thru A49 (or where ever I wish to place them) filled with the names of the sheets I just deleted.

Hyperlink Code For Sheet Names With Spaces Or Dashes

Sep 7, 2007

I believe I have 99% of what I need. The code below has one bug. (See just the underlined text for a very quick overview. The rest is detail.)

My goal is to generate a TOC that:
1) has the VBA run from my Personal Workbook.
2) can be run in any worksheet of any open workbook.
3) can be run in a worksheet of any name.
4) will insert itself at the currently active cell.
5) has entries hyperlinking to the referenced worksheets - of any name.

Right now, I'm stuck with the last point. The macro below will generate the TOC at the currently active cell. The TOC will be hyperlinks to the referenced worksheets.

However, if the referenced worksheet contains a space, dash, or other special character then the generated hyperlink is broken. For example, if the referenced worksheet is "sheet1" then the hyperlink generated works just fine. However, if the referenced worksheet is "sheet-1" then the generated hyperlink doesn't work.

Sub IndexList()
Dim objSheet As Object
Dim intRow As Integer
Dim strCol As Integer

Set objSheet = Excel.Sheets
intRow = ActiveCell.Row 'Start writing in active row
strCol = ActiveCell.Column 'Start writing in active column

For Each objSheet In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
Cells(intRow, strCol).Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:= _
objSheet.Name & "!A1", TextToDisplay:=objSheet.Name
intRow = intRow + 1
Next
End Sub

Add Formula Via Macro Code With Variable As Sheet Name

May 14, 2008

I have a front sheet with a list of all the sheets in the workbook in column A.
In column B I need to use the counta function to count the number of entries in the corresponding sheet to column A.

As there are 70 sheets I'd thought I'd use a Macro but I'm having great difficulties. I've done a search but can't find what I'm looking for.

So heres part of my code (it uses loops etc which I've managed but this just errors)

cell.Offset(0, 1).FormulaR1C1 = "=counta(" & str2&" C[-1])-1"

The str2 is the string name to reference the sheet in the formula (for example sheet1), I can't figure out how to enter this into the code so it works and is accepted.

Dynamically Referencing Tab Names?

Nov 4, 2013

I'm pulling data into some graphs from multiple sheets. The data I'm after is in the same place in each of the sheets, and the sheet name is varying only in that they refer to different dates, such as "01-11-13", 02-11-13 etc...

How would I go about dynamically picking up the sheet name. and referring to it?

For example if I have a column with all the different sheet names in it:

Col AA:
31-10-13
01-11-13
04-11-13
etc!

Insert Variable From Sheet Cell Into SQL Statement In VBA Code

Oct 29, 2013

I have the following code to execute a connection to a DB and return the result of the SQL statement. I have a variable in the statement that I want to be able to change from user input in a single cell. Unfortunately I am unable to get this to work.

Here is my code

cell_value = Sheets("some sheet").Range("P8")
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Sheets("some sheet").Cells.Clear

Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset

[Code] ........

This fails and gives me a debug error, however if I declare the condition I want the code executes fine. This would mean having to update the code every time the condition changed or putting the whole query in a cell on the sheet which I do not want to do.

Cross Referencing Names On Different Worksheets

Apr 23, 2009

I have three different sheets, each with a column of names, titled "list1, list2, list3." I also have a fourth list of names on a sheet titled "masterlist." I am wondering if there is any way I could cross check the three lists against the master list to see if any names appear on the master list but do not appear on any of the three lists. Is there any way I can cross reference the master list with each of these lists?

Variable Data Referencing

Apr 23, 2009

I have a word table(s) which I need to paste into excel, its a quotation sheet and this document always has the same basic format. I then need to copy across specification items to another sheet between 2 points in column A ie between points TEXT1 (A25) and TEXT2(A40) so cells A26:A39 in this instance but this can be between 1 or 100 items.

Text 2 is the start of a costing section and wouldn't be transferred.

What i am looking to do is write a formula which will look in sheet1 at column A and find "TEXT 1" at A25 then copy items across until it comes to "TEXT2" at A40 but is flexible enough to cope with various numbers of items.

Referencing A Value In Variable Length Columns.

Jan 22, 2006

I have a SS I would like to reference a cell in a column which changes in
length. In this case, I would like to reference the most current date in a

Is there a simple method for doing this, as the data will routinely be
different lengths in that column.

Further, there is Data on the Horizontal that I would like to reference to
another cell in another sheet that would correspond to this date. Can anyone
give any suggestions as to the best way to accomdate this?

Referencing Variable Workbook Tab In VLookup?

Nov 29, 2012

I have a challenge with Vlookups!

I have one workbook called Ratecards, which contains various tabs which are named based on a client code. e.g. ABC02

I then have another workbook which has employees in column B and the client code in C3.

The current Vlookup is =VLOOKUP(B8,'[ratecards.xlsx]ABC02'!$A$5:$N$168,4,false) which works fine for one client.

I want to substitute the ABC02 in the vlookup for cell ref C3, as the contents of C3 is variable and I want it to tell the sheet which ratecard to refer to.

Referencing Defined Worksheet Variable In Formula In VBA?

Oct 19, 2012

I have created a userform that once the user clicks the okay button, the information is transferred to a worksheet template named 'PO Template', copied, and renamed. That portion works great. I then have code for a summary worksheet named 'PO Log' that finds the next empty row on the log and enters a formula referencing back to the newly created 'PO Form' (note - 'PO Form' is a variable as the actual worksheet name changes with the user input). The formula on the 'PO Log' references the 'PO Form' literally, which gives me a REF! error because there is no sheet actually named that. I've tried defining POForm in the code as a string so I can enter it into the formula code but I get an error because it's already defined as a variable. I've entered the sub routine for clicking the okay button below:

Code:
Sub OkayButton_Click()
'Make PO Template Active
Sheets("PO Template").Activate

[Code]....

Macro To Create Columns By Referencing A Variable Column

Jul 11, 2014

I've only done a small amount of macros with VBA.

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. Can I somehow reference the label "This 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.

Create Array Of File Names/sheet Names

May 1, 2008

Two part question:

1) I'm relatively new to arrays, but what I need to do is generate a list of file names and the sheets within each one. I would like to use an array for this, but since I don't have much experience.... well....that's why I'm here. Can someone point me in the right direction?

2) And the second part of this.... I was planning on using the FileSystemObject to determine the files in a selected folder and loop through that list of files, opening each one and harvesting the required info (file name and all sheet names). Should I use the FSO or is there something built into Excel that might be better (and also limit the number of dependencies for this little "project" of mine).

Setting Variable Names In Vba

Aug 10, 2009

I am working on a macro for excel which has a userform where the user puts in the number of samples they have, then takes them to a new userform to input the weights of the samples. I want to be able to set the sample mass variable dynamically based on the number of samples they have…

i.e.

spl1
spl2
spl3
.
.
.
splx

x=number of samples

This number will be different each time so I am stumped at how to do this since I have just started in vba and do not know too much yet.
