Select Cell Range Relative To Starting Position

Mar 5, 2007

I need to change multiple conditional formats which apply to cell ranges 1 row x 17 columns wide. The specific change I am making is able to be acrried out with the code

With Selection.FormatConditions(1).Font
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
End With

However, I dont want the user to have to manually select each 17 cell area. I WANT THE USER TO JUST MANUALLY SELECT THE FIRST OF THE 17 CELL AREA. I want to write a macro that will THEN select a row of cells, 17 cells long, from the MANUALLY SELECTED position as at the moment of running the macro. Unfortunately the cells are not always on the same row in each sheet. On one sheet they may be on row 5, on another row 8 and on another, row 15 etc. I was wanting to be able to select a 17 cell range 'relative' to where the cursor is. How do I write the code to select the relative cell range? Is there an answer in an R[1]C[1]:R[1]C[17] sort of code?

Excel 2010 :: How To Position A Picture Relative To Last Cell

Jul 14, 2014

I need to insert a picture on a Excel 2010 worksheet.

The worksheet contains a variable number of columns, and the column width is also variable.

The picture needs to be aligned such that the right edge of the picture is in line with the right side of the last used column.

This is so that when the worksheet is converted to a PDF document the picture (company logo) appears on the top right hand side of the page.

I can find the cell reference for the last column, and I can move the picture around the page. But I'm not sure how to find the position of the last column on the page?

I've got this far:

'copy picture and resize and position
Sheets("Output File").Select
ActiveSheet.Shapes.Range(Array("Picture 1")).Select
Sheets("External data sheet").Select
Cells(1, 10).Select ' I can make this be relative to the last column on the WS
ActiveSheet.Paste
Selection.ShapeRange.Height = 50
Selection.ShapeRange.IncrementLeft 0 'put the picture in a position relative to the cell selected

Macro To Hide Column With Relative Position

May 16, 2014

I am trying to hide a column titled "Test". This column is usually column E, but it is possible it can be moved to column D or F. If I use:

[Code] .........

Then column E is hidden, regardless of whether Test is moved left or right. The reason Test moves is due to the user inserting or deleting a column.

Assigning Value By Performing Search Relative To Position

Jan 19, 2012

The data is a copy of CSV file in to a spreadsheet. Below is what the paste looks like:

100100 Books
1234.ab
1345.bf
1456
1567
100100 Books
100200 Magazines
100300 Videos
1234.ab
1345.bf
1456
1567
100300 Videos

All of the numbers between the 100100 Books, 100300 Videos belongs to that category. This repeats hundreds of rows down. I need the column to the left of this range to display which division it under. I parse this in excel so Books, Videos, Magazines will be in their own column. I am not exporting the CSV so have to manipulate it in excel. I need to have the column to the left combine the whole identifier so I can perform a VLOOKUP on it. It should look as follows:

100100.1234.ab
100100.1345.bf
etc.

My approach was to get the column to the left of the range to display the correct division, then have another column combine by using (cell)&"."&(cell).

Generating Multiple Textboxes With Relative Position

Apr 2, 2007

I am trying to create a form with a text box that when text is entered, it adds to the userform another textbox with that data in it. The focus then goes back to the original textbox so that more may be added indefinitely, all with relative position to the most recently added textbox. Here is what I have so far, works for one time, but not multiple textboxes. The original textbox is "txtAPID"

Private Sub MakeNewTextBox()
Dim newTextBox As TextBox
Dim ControlTop As Long
With LastAirport
ControlTop = 30
End With
Set newTextBox = Me.Controls.Add("Forms.TextBox.1", "txtNextAirport", True)
With newTextBox
.Left = 20
.Top = ControlTop + 3
.Height = 15
.Text = txtAPID.Text
End With....................

Return Cells Relative Position In A Category

Aug 1, 2008

I've got a list of story titles that are organized by genre, and I'd ultimately like to have a formula (not VBA) that automatically generates a "story id" based on the title's position within the genre (not the list overall). Here's a snippet of the list:

CREATE TABLES LIKE BELOW?IDGenreTitle
1.1GeneralTitle 1
1.2GeneralTitle 2
2.1Horror / SupernaturalTitle 3
2.2Horror / SupernaturalTitle 4
3.1Sci-FiTitle 5
3.2Sci-FiTitle 6

So what I'm looking for here is the formula that would give me the ID shown in the first column (I can modify it later for specific purposes). I've tried variations on the MATCH, INDEX, ROW, and VLOOKUP functions but just can't seem to get it quite right. Note: All the items in the Title column are unique - there are no duplicates.

which expands across Columns in Row 1.

What if we don’t know range to be named in which row or column starts?

What will be a formula (assume range starts on cell named “BegRng”)?

VBA Userform Combobox - Select Starting Point Of Dropdown Data?

May 22, 2014

Is there any way to set the list from a Combo Box to automatically start in the middle?

Whenever I select a Combo Box, the drop down list always automatically starts at the top of my selected range, ideally I would like it to start in the middle.

For example my Range that I am filling the Combo Box with lists dates: Today()-7 to Today()+7.

At the moment the first item in the combo box list is Today()-7, I would like it to be Today().

Select And Copy Set Of Data In Column Based On Starting And Ending Values

Aug 26, 2013

I have a macro that copies three sections of data from a word document and pastes it within the Excel worksheet. The column of data is pasted in a single column (data to be space-delimited and evaluated later), and what I would like the MACRO to do is separate the three sections of data based on the starting and ending values of the section and place them in different columns.

Section 1 : starts with the word "Team"
Section 1 : ends with the word "City"

Section 2 : starts with the word "Location"
Section 2 : ends with the word " Date"

Section 3 : starts with the word "Member"
Section 3: ends with the word "Age"

So section 1 would be pasted into cell C1, section 2 pasted into G1 and section 3 pasted into J1.

Each section will have vary in number of rows between the starting/ending values, so to cut and paste the section based on the starting and ending value is vital.

VBA - Setting Paste Of Series Destination Range Relative To Active Cell

Oct 24, 2013

I'm creating a Macro to paste a series of formulas from a template in hidden rows above to cells further down in the same worksheet. My code works fine if I set an absolute range as the Destination - here's a portion of it:

Sub TimelineRow150()
Dim TimelineMatch As Integer, ProjectPlan As Object
TimelineMatch = ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Value
If TimelineMatch = 26 Then
Range("E26:AQ28").Select

[Code]....

I'd like to be able to copy and paste this code to run it multiple times in the same worksheet, (the TimelineMatch variable actually has 26 different options). Is there a way to replace the [Range("E150:AQ152").Select] portion of the code with a range that is relative to the Active Cell? (I'd instruct users that cell E be the Active cell before running the Macro, and E to AQ is still the range I need the copied data to appear.) I've tried using ActiveCell.Offset, but I keep getting an error of Method 'Range of Object' _Global' failed.

Sum A Range Based On A Starting Lookup Value

Mar 2, 2009

I'm trying to sum a range of data consisting of 12 cells (each range is in a unique row going across adjacent columns). The range of data to be summed is based on a lookup value which is a column header - I want the range to start with this lookup value. In column B of my spreadsheet, I have a 'First Activity number code' going down...In Row 4, I have the same First Activity Codes going across the row (the column headers). In Column U, going down the column I am looking for my formula.

So For example, in row 5 of my spreadsheet, I am looking at 73 as my base code (the value in column B), and I want a range of data summed that lies in the same row where the column headers are 73 - 84 (12 rows) - always starting summing the range with the same number that is in column B. So in row 18, 78 is my base number; so I would want the sum of the numbers in the same row where the column headers are 78-89 ( 12 columns).

VBA To Average Range Starting From Minimum Value & Ending At Maximum Value

Jul 4, 2009

I am using Excel to use stock ticker symbols such as FDX "Fedex", to return past volume and price daily performance found in Google Finance that will be manipulated with the current VBA I am working on that will result in a trading pattern. Each trading pattern will happen at a different range in the same column. I will be inputting hundreds of ticker symbols daily so using VBA and not having to enter formulas manually in each is greatly preferred as this will save me lots of time.

I am stuck trying to find the average value of a range starting from the minimum to the maximum value. For instance, Range("H10:H20") may have a maximum value at range("H12") and a minimum at Range("H18"). I would like the average of Range("H12:H18").

Sub Fnd()

Dim MaxStartPriceRange As Range
Dim MinStartPriceRange As Range

Dim MaxPriLocation As Double

Set MaxStartPriceRange = Range("h11:h21")
MaxPriLocation = Application.Max(MaxStartPriceRange)

Set MaxStartPriceRange = MaxStartPriceRange.Find(MaxPriLocation)

Dim MnPriLocation As Double

SUMIF With Relative Range?

Dec 27, 2012

I have data headings in A1-E1 and actual data in A2-E2. I have a SUMIF function in F2.

A B C D E F
A B A B B
1 2 3 4 5 =SUMIF(A1:E1;"A";A2:E2)

When I insert new data columns between column E and F, the formula still refers to columns A-E although I would like to have the newly added columns in that SUMIF-function included.

For example, if I add 3 new columns, the new SUMIF-function (now in cell I2) should become =SUMIF(A1:H1;"A";A2:H2).

Do to modify the SUMIF-function to do that?
