Range Macro - looking to create a simple macro to highlight a colum range from any location in column A that the cursor has landed on to the fixed location "A3". Example: If I am on A34, then the macro would highlight A34:A3. I can then edit the format in that range. Idealy, I could search on Column A first for a given text, then run the above macro to highlight every cell between that given text and "A3".

In the attached file, i want to select the range from cell B8 (which is fixed), to used range i.e. till Cell F18 (but the problem is, cell F18 is not fixed). Last used row or column can change. I want to do it by using VBA.
Here is the sample file Select Range.xlsm
I'm trying to write a bit of code that will allow me to clear some sheets. One of the sheets has formula for x number of rows, and these need to be left intact. Under these forumla there is an area where data is pasted, and this needs to be cleared becfore starting the process.
Colum A is blank, apart from cell A1 (the column heading) and another cell (variable row) with the value 'Paste here'. I've used this variable cell in other macros on the sheet as a marker, so need this to stay. I was going to use this code below, but I don't know how to tell it to select from the current active cell to the bottom of the spreadsheet.
I have multiple tables like the one in the picture and have to duplicate this code for different known ranges.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI have an XY chart that I would like to have the user select a single data point in the chart and be able to add a comment in a table corresponding to that point. For example: if the x-values are in A1:A10, y-values are in B1:B10, the user can select a point, say the 4th point, have some code run that will enter a text string into cell C4. I can manage the code to add the text to the appropriate location, but I'm having trouble with 2 things.
First, how can I ensure that the user has selected a single point (as opposed to the entire series or the chart background)?
And second, how can I determine which point is selected? I think I need to determine the point's item number in the SeriesCollection, then offset that number of rows in my data table. But I can't find a way to retrieve that number.
so I have been googling to figure out how to write a macro that will select every other column on my workbook. All that keeps coming up is conditional formatting, which I do not want. I am not trying to highlight the columns in alternating colors, I just want to select them.
I am starting at column F and I would like it to search until the end of the columns and select every other column ending with the last column with data in it.
I know I could search by a specific row and tell it to find the first blank cell then offset it, but there is no particular row that will always have data in it, so I guess it needs to check by column until it finds the first column without any data in all rows and then offset it.
Anyone know what I am talking about here?
I know it should be fairly simple but I couldn't seem to find any answers anywhere else.
Also, anyone know any good websites that have definitions for some basic macros? I'd love to start learning how to write this stuff on my own.
At the moment I've got a chart with 3 series lines on it and each line has 12 points. I need to select the 12th point on each series in the chart and create a label for it. The 3 lines are Budget, Forecast and Actual and often the Forecast line hits the same points as the Budget line in the chart and every time I try to find a way to select the last point on the Forecast line, I end up selecting the budget one because it's the one in the foreground.
I can select the forecast line with the keyboard arrows, but not the last point.
I also try to zoom in to get it but one of my charts has exactly the same forecast line as budget line and I still need the forecast line because the forecast will change in future.
I can delete the budget line then add it back, but this is difficult and one I'd have to repeat many times because I'm always making graphs and labelling the final point in a series is something I'm going to have to do more often.
How do I select the last point on the forecast line if it's directly behind the budget line?
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().
I have this:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate
Range("A1").Select
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(rowOffset:=1, columnOffset:=0).Activate
ActiveCell.PasteSpecial
End Sub
it errors to: SELECT METHOD OR RANGE CLASS FAILED
I am still trying to develop a macro that will copy and paste a set of formulas into a dynamic destination range. I have included a worksheet that shows what I am trying to do. Basically when using AutoFill I need the columns of the destination range to be dynamic based on the number of rows in another sheet.
View 13 Replies View RelatedHow do I define a " Range Name" that is fixed? So if I insert a row above the range it has no effect on the orginal range.
IE: Range Name "MyRange" = A10:A100
I insert a new row at A4 then "MyRange" = A11:A101
I want it to stay at A10:A100.
I have a pivot table as shown below which is pretty straight forward however I am trying to create a macro that will automatically change the point name to match the point name in column E then copy that resulting dispaly to another sheet then pick the next point name in line and do the same thing and repeat for 50 rows, so my end result will be 50 pivot tables ready for printing. I can do this manually but I am trying to make it automatic...BTW the point names in column E change everyday but the pivot table supports the name changes.
Option Explicit
Sub PointName()
Dim Ws As Worksheet
Dim Rng As Range, Cel As Range
Set Ws = ActiveSheet
Set Rng = Range(Cells(2, 7), Cells(Rows.Count, 7).End(xlUp))
For Each Cel In Rng
Ws.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("Point Name").CurrentPage = Cel & " "
Ws.Columns("A:B").Copy
Sheets.Add
With ActiveSheet
.Paste
.Name = Trim(Cel)
.Range("A1").Select
End With
Next
Ws.Activate
End Sub
I turned it off for a while and when I turned it back on I am getting an error
Unable to set the _Default property of the PivotItem class
Debugger is highlighting
Ws.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("Point Name").CurrentPage = Cel & " "
I have is is some code that ends up selecting a certain range, as an example A2:A60 but this could be any range (A2:A65, B2:B65 etc) what I need is a bit of code that selects the cell 2 rows down from the last cell in the selection.
so for the example above, if A2:A60 is selected, the bit of code after would select the cell A62.
How can I shift the range of cells I want to calculate an average from? For example I want to get the average of cells A1 to A10, so =AVERAGE(A1:A10) And next I want to get the average of cells A11 to A20, so =AVERAGE(A11:A20). But I don't want to manually change the data or delete rows all the time.Is it possible to do something like: =average(A1+10:A10+10)??
View 4 Replies View RelatedSee attached the example worksheet. I am wondering if there is a way to write a macro that will change data from individual strings within a cell row to merged and centre data for that set of data. The issue is the data in the row will be varied i.e. sometimes there will be 20 x 2013 other times there may be 22 X 2013 etc. however, the data will always be fixed in the same row on the worksheet.
At the moment the best I have is a recorded macro, which really doesn't work too great and I end up fixing it constantly.
I have a sheet with entries dated. With values next to them.

I would like to work out a function to select the activerow(depending on cell)
and the 30 rows under it and then print them.

This could be a button or anything, no pref on it ^^
I'm trying to select an x number of random selections within the selection.
Basically, lets say A1:A100 is selected, im going to have a inputbox asking how many to select, you put 10 in the inputbox, and then it randomly chooses 10 from A1:A100 and highlights them
This seems easy enough, i can do the input box and know the random function. just not sure how to set the beginning point and the ending point with Cell locations and then have it highlight those selections... a for loop I'm guessing?

I'm looking to replace the words in
VB : myWords = Array("dog", "cat", "hamster")
with a named range.
Here is what I did. I added the lines:
VB:
Dim myArray As Variant
myArray = Range("colorbold")
And replaced mywords with
VB:
myWords = Array("colorbold")
Something is clearly wrong.
I have two sets of example borehole data.
First, a range of depths with varying confidence levels.
ID
From depth
to depth

Second, point data where I would like to return values from within the range in the first data set. I would like the confidence column of the second data set to feed from the first data set, if the point depth data is within the depth range for a borehole with the same ID. Battled with all sorts of IF, AND and LOOKUP forumlas with no luck.

I'm looking to take some data from a selection of about 5 or 6 cells in a row, and use them for some formulas. I can only get as far as selecting the 5 cells.
If I have a row of 5 cells selected, how to I save each cell as a different variable? Does this make sense?
Cell 1 = number1
Cell 2 = number 2
etc..
I want to select them as a row to keep them all in one group. I don't know if this is correct or not.
I need a macro to select the area within the blue invoice sheet box, so everything within the blue invoice sheet box is selected , and then the selection should be printed. I will have hundreds of these invoice slips made, right below each other, i was wondering once this is done, is there an easier way to to have each invoice selected, instead of making a custom button for each sheet ( which selects just that invoice , and prints that selection ).
( Column m through v, starting at row 2 stoping at row 68, is the selection required in this example, everythign within the blue box. ).
The VB for a macro to select only the rows/cells within an autofiltered selection. So if I Autofiltered this set of data by Column F where Lookup = NO
it would only display Rows 3 & Row 7.
I would want the Macro then to select only these rows, then copy/paste them to another Worksheet called "Static".

In a particular battery sizing workbook I have 3 data tables on each sheet (Sheet2, Sheet3 and Sheet4) The table range is d22:u45, the same on each of these three sheets. What I would like to do is to when any one of three cells (labled "Sheet2", "Sheet3", or "Sheet4") is activated on Sheet1, transfer the data from that reppective sheet table range d22:u45 to the same range d22:u45 on Sheet1. And let me use that data in the Sheet1 worksheet subroutines.

I ask this because I need to create an interactive online calculator which absolutely needs to have the ability to allow the user to select the RANGE of the data to be analyzed.

View 4 Replies View RelatedLets pretend that I have a boat load of automatically generated values from a different program.
There's a specific equillibrium point to a certain measurement, but this measurement involves a lot of fluctuation. To get a near accurate result, I must find the maximum value in an entire graph on the Y Axis value(Column B). Ofcourse, this is easily done using the =MAX value
Exactly 450 seconds (X Axis value(Column A)) positively and negatively from this point, something like this happens.
Problems:
A.) I must find the highest points 450 seconds negatively ( X ) to the max of the entire graph.
B.) I must find the lowest point closest to the two points we uncovered, both on the positive ( X -->) side.
C.) The fluctuation of every spike can last to about ±30 measured points in the graph. (±20 seconds) Thus, the maximum point surrounding the +/- 450 seconds (±693 x values) needs to be accurately predicted as being around 450 seconds, not 10 seconds more or less.
D.) The measurement is known to something glitch out and suddenly get a spike somewhere along the road, which will then quickly fall back down, which is a false maximum level. How can I prevent excel from taking this as the maximal point?
Remember, this needs to be fully automated into a macro later on, ergo, I cannot manually add the formulas to all the (650 different) sheets.
I have 25 days before the project gets cancelled if this doesn't make it.
i'm using this source to add labels to data points in charts:
Sub AttachLabelsToPoints()
'Dimension variables.
Dim Counter As Integer, ChartName As String, xVals As String
' Disable screen updating while the subroutine is run.
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
'Store the formula for the first series in "xVals".
xVals = ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Formula
the code is from ms and works. (for some reason they also declare variable 'chartname' although it's never used, anyway). the full thing here: [url]
i actually have my source data filterable. so depending on the filters chosen, the chart updates itself. so it removes data points in the chart as more filters are used.
the problem is that the labels ignore the filters. the code above just goes down the column to grab the labels grabbing values in order, even if they have been filtered out.
a cumbersome workaround would be to copy the filtered data to another range and use that for the labels. this is neither optimal because i have lots of data or elegant.
I am working with DatePicker calendar. I have two userform with date entries. In one userform I will have 2 textbox to enter dates. In the other one I will have 4 dates to enter. I used to have Excel 2007 with Calendar Control and used to work fine but had to make multiple calendar to control individual Textbox in multiple Userforms.
I am looking for a way to, If a userform is selected to trigger only the textbox name that is within that userform. If I add more entries the code adds automatically the date from the previous userform in the next one.
[Code].....
I was thinking that this would work but it still adds the date to my frmdashboard userform if I am in my frmdata userform.
Is there a way to trigger only the userform that I am currently in?
Using Excel 2013.
Note: I also have a "Clear All" VB Code that will delete every entry in my userform on Initiate but I am looking to not go this path.
