Select Range Based On Variable Cell Content
Based on if the value in col A contains the characters "TT" I want to select the range starting with this cell and ending at the end at the end of the row I'm using (.End(xlRight) and then merge these cells, change colors etc. And then looping this through a 'range' so that it only occurs where the values occur. I can amend various cells based on this idea, but am unable to identify the range and then merge the cells.

Select Cell Content From Visible Rows.
I have a worksheet whereby many of the rows are hidden. These rows were initialy hidden by means of scipts ( I have numerous scripts to hide data under various criteria) eg: Scripts which hide rows based on cell count, cell color, cell data information etc... Now that I am able to veiw only the information that i want to see.. is it possible to create a script which selects cells only from rows which are visible? I have created a Named range begining from E:12 to G:500 called "Select_EFG" Uing the example below, how could I select the cell data from the visible rows (12, 30, 34, 35, 50 etc... up to row 500.) from this Named Range (columns E:12, G:500) .... and paste this information in Sheet 2 Row5 columnC ........A,B,C,D,E,F,G, Row 12 30 34 35 50 57 59 100 140 400 490 500

Add Value Based On Cell Content
I have a named range (D:16 F:800) called “NameRange” which contains names. I’d like to create a macro which offsets a letter “x”, 10 columns to the right everywhere that name appears within the range. As an example: If I’m trying to find the name Tom, A dropdown menu shows the name “Tom” ( which I’ve created) whereby it calls upon a script to search within the named range from this: Bob Kim Tom Tom Sue Mary Bill Ted Tom Sue Bob Fred Bill Sue Bob Tom Kim and offset “x” to look like this:.......

Deleting Rows Based On Cell Content
I wish to remove the page headers that were imported along with the raw data. Here's the code I've been using. Column_To_Check = 3 Start_Row = 1 End_Row = ActiveSheet. Cells(Start_Row, Column_To_Check).CurrentRegion.Rows.Count MsgBox End_Row Search_String = "." For Row_Counter = Start_Row To End_Row If ActiveSheet.Cells(Row_Counter, Column_To_Check).Value <> Search_String Then ActiveSheet.Rows(Row_Counter).Delete Row_Counter = Row_Counter - 1 End If Next Row_Counter End Sub When I import the data from the text file, there are 3 dimensions separated by a period in the same field. I.E: ABC.DEF.GHI and I use the break points to seperate as such: ABC|.|DEF|.|GHI|. Therefore, all rows that contain data also contain a period in cell C, but headers don't. The Problem End_Row = ActiveSheet.Cells(Start_Row, Column_To_Check).CurrentRegion.Rows.Count CurrentRegion only selects up to the first blank row. However, I need this to select the whole sheet, not just the current region.

Format Border Based On Cell Content
I have a dynamic table (rows regularly added or deleted) that is generated automatically based on choices made by the user in another worksheet. I need a function that will examine all the cells in one column, and when it finds a difference between two cell entries, it will change the border between these two entries to dark (medium weight), and then extend this border across the table. The end result should be that wherever the cell contents differ within a column, the table is divided by a darker border across the entire row.

Run Macro Based On Cell Content
I have a drop down list made from the Forms toolbar with a list of items: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. I have set it with a linked cell, so when you choose, say 3, from the dropdown, 3 appears in B10. I was hoping to add a 'Go' button, which would run another macro depending on what is in B10, i.e. so if 3 was chosen, then you press 'Go', Macro3 would be run. So I have 5 macros called Macro1 - Macro5, and I need some code for the 'Go' button which will run the right macro depending on what number is in cell B10.

Conditional Formatting Based On Cell Content
I am trying to format cells based on what is in them across the board. Is there a way to conditional format based on what is in certain cells? I have 5 columns. I need to color in every NA only in the rows that have 1 or less cells with a number in there. So if there is 2 cells in that one row that have a number in them then leave the whole row white. If there is only 1 number in that row and the rest are NA then color all the NA's in red......

I can do a "=" or use an "if" statement looking at anything greater than "0". but is there a way I can get the invoice worksheet to ignore any lines with "0". So it will only copy over the information with only qtys for the invoice ?.

Drop Down List Based On Cell Content
I'm trying to find a macro that will allow me to enable several drop down lists in the same cell based on the content of another cell. In other words: If cell A1 is the data entry cell, and the user enters "cat" Then cell B1 will display a drop down list of previously grouped options: "mouse, bug, bird" If in cell A1 the user enters "dog" Then cell B1 will display a different list of previously grouped options: "mole, rabbit, kibble"

External Data Query Based On Cell Content..
I have a sheet which is running a a query against an external source, and coming back with a list of client data. Each row is an investment with it's own unique InvestmentID number and a ClientID number. Each client has their own unique ClientID, however may have multiple investments (InvestmentID) linked to their ClientID (does that make any sense?!). Anyway, the query I have returns ALL investments. I know how to manually change this to only bring back certain client(s), however I want to be able to have the users (who don't know what a query is, yet alone to how to use/edit one) enter a ClientID into say, cell B2 and have the query reflect that ClientID. If they have to click a button to run a macro after entering the ClientID, so be it (although it'd be great if it actioned once they hit "Enter"). I know this is possible because I've used something similar before (that someone else created!). What I don't know is... if I had multiple "entry cells", could I have the query filter by two (or more?) ClientIDs? That is, they enter the first ClientID in B2 and the second ClientID in C2, the query then returns all information relating to B2 or C2

I am working on a macro and, as part of it, I would like to look at column A of my spreadsheet and remove all cell contents where the text in the cell does not start with the word "total." For instance, if the text of a cell in column H is "total money" I would like it to remain unchanged. However, if the text of a cell is "George Baker" I would like it removed.

Select Multiple Worksheets Based On Cell
I have a column where each cell contains the names of a variable number of worksheets in the format ["sheet1", "sheet2", etc. ] without the brackets but with the quotation marks. I would like to have some code that will select all of the sheets mentioned in a given cell. I found lots of threads about selecting an individual sheet based on a cell, but none about selecting multiple sheets. If it is easier, I can change the format of of the cells, or break each cell out into multiple cells in a given row. The best code I could come up with was Sub Selects() Dim strSht As String Sheets("Criteria").Select strSht = ActiveSheet.Range("L31") Sheets( Array(strSht)).Select End Sub

Select A Range Based On Active Cell Location?
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?).

In the Audit Protocol worksheet is the main information - which contains questions and answers .... If a yes, n/a or no is selected then a response is automatically generated in the observations column (thanks to SHG for helping me with the formula for this) ..... How do I then get the cell to change to red if a NO response only is selected ? Then the information from the Audit Protocol worksheet (the observation column and number column) are copied across to the worksheet named Action List (this is done just by the copy function) .... How do I go about deleting rows that contain "no action required" - as these are not needed for the report to be generated ?
