Search Multiple Workbooks & Match Named Ranges
Dec 6, 2006
I need to create a macro to find matches between multiple specific workbooks and a named range. I am new to macros and am very confused. After searching the forums here, I am still lost, even though they are very informative. So far,I have created a Dynamic Named Range called NamesList
=OFFSET(CurrentDay!$B$2,0,0,MATCH("*",CurrentDay!$B:$B,-1),1)
that selects the cells which I update manually each day. Once I have updated the list of names, I need to create a macro that will decide whether or not the names in the dynamic named range CurrentDay (located in workbookA) already exist in workbookB. The macro needs to create a list of the which names already exist in the workbook, and which do not. For the names that do not exist in workbookB, I then need to search workbookB and workbookC for matches, again creating a list of results. Until now I have been manually using Ctrl + F (Find Method)and going down my list of names to search through each workbook.

I need to create a named range on multiple sheets with the same named range & i cant figure out how to do this. EG :- I want to create a named range called "_SubUnitRows" on sheet1 starting from "A1:A50" & other named range again called "_SubUnitRows" on Sheet2 starting from "A1:A25" ...

I have a table (approx 10 rows x 10 columns) that I am trying to lookup. I have to first look across the top of the table (cols 2-10) to find a name, then look down for a value (exact match) within than array and then find the corresponding value (in that position) in the 1st column. I have used 'name manager' to name these arrays (in columns, rows 2-10).
I have setup the names of the arrays with a drop down list (as per some utube videos). When I try to evaluate the match function (with the array name as a cell reference) i get #value. When I directly type in the name of the array into the match function I get a correct answer.
Should I be using other functions such as indirect, choose, etc instead?

I have two columns both of which lengths will vary depending on the time-frame entered by the user but will be the same as each other for each run of the code. Because of that, I'm trying to create a named range for each column and then execute an Index Match with an Offset off of it. Below is my code which results in an "Object required" error message.
Code:
Dim Ticker As Long, Tick As Range, TIK As Range, RoleDt As Long, RD As Range, endDate As Variant
Ticker = Range("F" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
RoleDt = Range("E" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Set TIK = Range("F2:F" & Ticker)
Set RD = Range("E2:E" & RoleDt)
cell.Formula = "=INDEX(RD,MATCH,(RC[-1],TIK,0)+1)"

Column A contains State names; column B contains a few cities for each of the states. Row 1 contains rank as the header row. Then the table begins in cell C2 with the rates. I have two of these (on separate sheets), one titled w dep (with dependants) and the other w-o dep (without dependants). On a third sheet I have 4 combo boxes.
1.Chooses between Dep or W-O Dep
2.Chooses Rank
3.Chooses State
4.Chooses City
Here are my questions.
•How can I filter down the cities so that if I chose Texas for example, only the cities from Texas would show up in my combo box?
•I have figured out the formula to display the results from the w dep sheet but cannot get the information from the w-o dep sheet. Here is the formula I’m using.......

I have 2 workbooks formatted the same way.
Using VBA, I want to search through book1 Col A which has a list of Code # s.
If a Code # is in Book 2 Col A, find a match on Book 1 Col A.
After finding a match, compare the range in Book 2 ( Which is the 4 cells immediately to the right ) to the match with the corresponding range in Book 1.
If the range contents are not the same, copy the range from Book2 to Book1 and replace the range in Book1.
If there is NO Match of the Code # in Col A, then Copy the entire row to Book1 and append it to the end of the current Book1 used range.
A MsgBox to show how many changes and additions at the end.

I am having an issue when I try a chart a named range. The named range "Refers To" is
Code:
=OFFSET($A$1,(MATCH("Kevin",$A:$A,0)-1),,,COUNTA(INDIRECT(ADDRESS((MATCH("Kevin",$A:$A,0)-1),1,1,1)
&":"&ADDRESS((MATCH("Kevin",$A:$A,0)-1),100,1,1))))
As far as I can tell, the formula works just fine. If you look in the Name Manager and check on that Name, the highlighted box shows up exactly what it should and if you do a simple MAX test, it displays the correct MAX value from that range.
The problem comes in when I try and add it to a chart. Instead of a displaying all the values in the range, it displays nothing. Doesn't flag up any errors, just nothing.
The reason I chose to do it this way is that the table contents could change on a daily basis and so could the position of the row and I don't want to have to keep changing the references in the graph so make sure the right data is being displayed. Is it just that charts don't play well with the INDIRECT function?

I use the standard OFFSET-COUNT-MATCH method to create dynamic named ranges in my Excel projects. Needless to say, this method won't work on a spreadsheet with formulas extending beyond the current range. The count function counts the cells containing formulas, even though they may contain no data. Does anyone know how to construct a formula that will IGNORE the "formula only" cells??

I'm trying to automate a search and match function between two separate workbooks using VBA and am having some problems. I'm using the following line:
search_results = Application.Match(temp, Range("E1:E900"), 0)
which works fine. now the problem is that when i'm searching for lets say "ABCD" in one of the workbooks, if there is an entry "ABCD " (with a space at the end) it says that the entry doesn't exist. is there any way of correcting it such that it would always neglect the space at the end if it exists? i tried using -1 instead of 0 and it messes up, so i'm not sure what to do.

Is it possible to use the same code through a number of named ranges without writting it out for each individual range. I have a table with 7 columns and 30 rows, data inputed to the table and then through code manipulaited on font, fill colour, and cell value(some 25 diffrent options) I have produced working code to pull out data as required for column 1 but it is extremly long, is there some code about I can use to loop my code, (automatically changing the named range within my code to cycle through each of my 7 named ranges)? or do I have to write the code out for each individual named range?

I am trying to create a dynamic named range with a sales rotation tracker. Basically, I have a list of leads that come in each week and I add them to the tracker distribute the leads to sales people based on a rotation. I would like to create a dynamic named range for each sales person that will select each sales person's name including the lead information in the row.
I have read all of the dynamic named range information at the link below as well as the advanced dynamic named range page and I can't seem to put my finger on this short of doing it manually.

I am trying to apply data validation to a column of cells using named ranges. However, each row has a unique associated named range. For example:
A_______B
Birds____*
Dogs____*
Cats____*
I can easily apply data validation to these three rows separately using named ranges.
Ie three separate named ranges:
=Birds
=Dogs
=Cats
However, I need a way to quickly apply data validation to column B using different named ranges for each row because there are about 2,000 rows. Is there a way to reference text in the cells of column A that contains the name of the named range? Or maybe a bit of VB code that could do it quickly?

What I have is a large number of sheets in a workbook (26 to be exact). Each of these sheets has one specific named range. The file itself is quite large so I would like to print these ranges to a single PDF file. I did my best to search for this topic in the forums and while I did find some macros that were close, there was some sort of piece of code missing. Also, will how I list the named ranges determine the order of how they will show up in the PDF File?

Can you create a Pull-down List that contains data from Multiple Ranges.
If I have a List of Names Running down column A (A2:A10) another List of Names Running Down B (B2:B25) and a Third down C (C1:C15) each of them named Ranges ("List1", "List2" & "List3"), can I create a Pull-down list in Cell A1 that would include the names from all three ranges?

I have timesheets in work, where i created basic formulas to display times & worked hours etc. I also have named ranges on 4 of the sheet.
The sheets are named as the department (area 1, stock control etc.). All the sheets are identical in terms of layout, only the names of staff and hours worked are different.
When i created them, i tried to be pro-active and created flippin loads, through to October this year. Problem being i created a Summary sheet for each workbook, which in short takes all names from all areas and collates them on the last tab, puts Mon-Sun across the top, enters the hours into the relevant days, merges hours worked in different areas and also splits the hours worked over each day.
Everything is working flawlessly.
Except, the above evolution of the sheet was done after i mass created the timesheet, and as such i need to manually open each sheet, set the ranges and name them, add a summary sheet, add the macro, save and close.
Is it possible to create a macro on book1, that when i open however many other workbooks (the actual timesheets) the code would set and name the ranges for me?
The time sheets are all named according to the week -> 'W.C - 08.04.2013', 'W.C - 15.04.2013' etc.

I have written this macro to convert into a csv file to run for all defined named ranges in the activesheet. It run jst perfect when I hit SAVE button and it creates that many different CSV files for each named range.
However I am trying to use same macro in the another file and the problem I am facing is there a lot more named ranges and I want to run the macro for only selected NAMED RANGE. In this case 2 Named Range / 24 Named range.
What part of code do I need to change and to what to make it work for just 2 named ranges ?

I need to be able to search for an "Street Address" across mutiple workbooks all stored in same folder
My workbooks have one sheet with several columns one column is "Street Address"
What i need to do is search all the workbooks that are in that folder to see if a particular address is already in a previous workbook
Example:
Search
1313 Mockingbird lane
msgbox no match
or msgbox found in workbook blah blah.xls
I am using excel 2003, however the workbooks i open and the save get converted to 2007 if that makes a difference

I need to create hundreds of named ranges going down a single sheet.
The name of the first range is in cell a1 and is 13 columns wide and 7 columns high (a1:m7)
The next name is in a8 and the range is a8:m14 and so fourth
If it's easier on a separate sheet I can have a list of names I want in column A and then the cells they refer to in column B.
E.g.
A B
Range1 Sheet1!A1:M7
Range2 Sheet1!A8:M14
Range3 Sheet1!A15:M21

I have 2 workbooks:
- 1 contains tabs for each day of the month and each tab contains a couple of big tables.
- the other is where I want to gather certain data from the first workbook, selection should be made via a condition. I want to copy not the entire row that meets the criteria but lets say the first 4 cells of the row that meets the criteria (code below still copy's entire row, if you also have the code for my goal I would apreciate it very much).
The next part of code is what i've found on the internet and i'm trying to rebuild it to my situation, the biggest problem is the extarnal link to the 1st workbook sheet it seems to hang there everytime. If I copy a part of the table to a empty sheet in the 2nd workbook just linking to that sheet works so the problem is with the external linking what am I doing wrong?
Sub SearchForString()
Dim LSearchRow As Integer
Dim LCopyToRow As Integer
On Error Goto Err_Execute
LSearchRow = 4
'Start copying data to row 2 in Sheet2 (row counter variable)
LCopyToRow = 2
Sheets("[D:Sudden Death BestandenCHC NetherlandsFuelFuel2007januari.xls]1!").Select
While Len(Range("A" & CStr(LSearchRow)).Value) > 0.........................

I cant seem to find the correct syntax for creating 14 validation lists using array members as the source of the named ranged. The validation lists are stored on a different worksheet, the Named Ranges are created fine, as are the ranges that are having the validation applied. The Syntax I am having a problem with is
Public Sub assignDVList(WSD As Worksheet, sListName As String)
Dim DVListName As String
DVListName = "DV" & sListName
Application.Goto Reference:=sListName
With Selection.Validation
.Delete
.Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Operator:= _
xlBetween, Formula1:="=" & DVListName
It is the Formula1:="=" & DVListName that is creating the headache. The sub is called as the array moves through the columns, using the header row as the Name for the Named Range, and the data Validation worksheet uses the same naming except it has DV in front.

I am having such a difficult time creating a macro that will reduce the 5+hours I have to spend each week manually copying & pasting all of this data. I making an IMMENSE difference in this worker bee's life!
I have a workbook with two sheets (Sheet1 & Sheet2). Sheet1 has license #'s in column A and the state that the license belongs to in column B like this:
COLUMN ACOLUMN B11111Alaska11112Alabama11113Arkansas11114Arkansas
Sheet2 has three columns. Column A has the license #'s, column B has the state that the license belongs to and Columns C shows a line-of-authority tied to that license #.
COLUMN ACOLUMN BCOLUMN
C11111AlaskaProperty11111AlaskaCasualty11112AlaskaLife11112AlaskaHealth11112
AlabamaProperty11112AlabamaCasualty11113ArkansasLife11113ArkansasHealth11114
ArkansasLife11114ArkansasHealth12345ArizonaProperty
I'm trying to write a macro that will compare the license # and state in Sheet1 to the license # and state in Sheet2. If it matches, append the contents of Column C to the corresponding row in Sheet1.
Here's the thing...Sheet2 contains the entries for all licenses in the company (so this table is HUGE). And there are multiple entries for each state license # (notice how there's two entries above for AK license # 11111 - one for the Property line and one for the Casualty line.
After my macro is run, I want Sheet1 to show all the lines-of-authority on a single line. So if I ran my macro on the above example, after it's run I would have this in Sheet1:
COLUMN ACOLUMN BCOLUMN
C11111AlaskaProperty Casualty11112AlabamaProperty Casualty11113
ArkansasLife Health11114ArkansasLife Health

I have two files
Say first file name is X and in work sheet 1 i have used name manager for two columns say "Series" and "Fund name"
Second file name is Y
R7C3 is Fundname of Y file
RC4 is Series Value of Y file
In the row of Y file , C 15 - I want to calculate the formula
Range("C15").FormulaArray = _
"=IF(ISNA(INDEX(Series,MATCH(R7C3&RC4,Fundname&Series,0))=RC4),""NO"",""YES"")"
I am not getting any error but the result is not correct , even for the series which is not there in my file "X" it says "YES"
See my codes below :
Dim colA As Variant
Dim colB As Variant
Dim WksDash As Workbook
Dim Wksfile As Workbook
Dim wksWatch As Worksheet
Dim WksDash2 As Worksheet

I have a set of values in column A in sheet 1 and a compilation of some of the same set of data in column A in sheet 2. Using the index match function, I have been able to list the corresponding values in column B of sheet 2 onto column B of sheet 1 (for those values which are common to both sheets - matching occurs between column A in both sheets). However, I now have some of the set of data in sheet 2 and the rest in sheet 3 (again, in column A). Is there any way of using index match to search in both sheets and index the corresponding value from column B of the sheet containing the matched value in column B of sheet 1?
I have tried this by nesting the index match functions for each sheet into two separate IF arguments but haven't had any luck. Is there a better way of doing this?
This is what I have currently tried in Cell B2 of sheet 1:
=IF(INDEX(Sheet2!$B$2:$B$3001,MATCH(A2,Sheet2!$A$2:$A$3001,FALSE),1),IF(INDEX(Sheet3!$B$2:$B$3001,MATCH(A2,Sheet3!$A$2:$ A$3001,FALSE),1)))
Excel keeps saying this formula has errors but I have no idea as to what changes I need to make to get the formula to model my situation. Then again, I'm not even sure if this is the approach I should be taking to create a formula that models my situation.

Merge two columns into one list in excel
I would like to combine List1 and List2 into a 3rd named range called List3. I was wondering if this were possible without using any additional cells/columns (i.e. I don't want to use Column C like in the example shown in the link above).
Here's the formula from the example:
Code:
=IFERROR(INDEX(List1,ROWS(C1:$C$1)),IFERROR(INDEX(List2,ROWS(C1:$C$1)-ROWS(List1)),""))
I've played around with it, but could not come with any that worked.

Attached is a sample workbook, but essentially what I'm looking to do is automate the process of searching through a data set where the value of interest (in this case, names) often has multiple entries, with different values attached to each instance.
I would like to be able to get a list of all values in a given column that match a specific name in another column.
Currently I'm using a basic INDEX/MATCH search just to see whether the data exists at all, but that's only half of what I have to do here, and I'm totally stumped on how to get a comprehensive list of all matches.
For reference, if you look at the sample, what I need is a list of all values in the "CPT" column that match the name searched for in the first column.
The actual data set size is at most 3-400 entries, if that makes a difference in how to approach this.

1) Output_Range: the named range where the parameters will be pulled to
2) Header: the header to search for in order to copy the data underneath it
3) WorkbookName: the name of the workbook to search in
