Selecting Range With Variable Length

Aug 28, 2009

I require vba code which will allow me to select a range of variable size.

Starting from cell A2 use :

Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select

However then using the line below may not select the entire range as some columns may be empty

Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select

Selecting Range 6 X The Length Of Another Column?

May 15, 2012

I have a worksheet which already has some built in formulas which take the data in columns V and W, and use them to build other coding in column P. The trick is that the coding created in column P will be six times as long as the source data in columns V and W.

I.e., a single row containing "Sample1" and "Sample 2" in columns V and W respectively create the six following rows in column P:

Row 1:
Row 2: TMUnknown
Row 3: tested1
Row 4: Sample1
Row 5: Sample2
Row 6:

I want to be able to select the accurate length of Column P, which should be 6x as long as columns V or W. Any dynamic way to do this? (Since the amount of data pasted into columns V and W will change each time I use this worksheet.) I know how to select set ranges, but not how to adjust them as multiples of the length of another column

Naming A Range Of Variable Length

Feb 5, 2007

I have a range of data starting in C18, C17 is a label (DivsUsed) the number of rows can range from 1 to a few hundred.

I used the code below to name C18 onwards as a named range with the name DivsUsed and then to use this as a RowSource for a ListBox.

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()

Dim rangeToName As Range
'Sheet2.Range("C18", Range("C65536").End(xlUp)).Name = "DivsUsed" Tried this too
Set rangeToName = Sheet2.Range("C17", Range("C65536").End(xlUp))
rangeToName.CreateNames Top:=True
ListBox2.RowSource = "DivsUsed"
TextBox2.Value = Sheet2.Range("F2").Value 'This works ok
End Sub

Both tries, and anything else I have tried, give the error " Method 'Range' of object _Worksheet failed".

Conditional Formatting Of Range Of Variable Length

Apr 30, 2009

I have an issue regarding use of conditional formatting where the range i wish to format is on variable length.

For example; lets say i want to format F15 downwards depending on there being a value in the cell, how could I do that ?

Lets say I want the cell to turn GREY if number is 0, RED if the number is below 85, GREEN if above 95 and AMBER otherwise.

How could I do that ?
Any how could i ensure it picks all rows in the range where numbers have been added

Extract Strings From Range Of Variable Length Text

Jan 18, 2008

I have the following issue. I have a list of strings. Each string contains certain characters that are exactly the same for all strings, some characters are different making the string longer (in some cases). What I need to do is extract some combination of characters from each string. The strings look like this:

AB & CDE & FG & I mmmm yyyy.HIJK
AB & CDE & FG & II mmmm yyyy.HIJK

The part "AB & CDE & FG & " (incl. spaces) is the same for each string. The next part contains a roman count from I to VII, causing the length of each string to vary. The "mmmm" part contains the current month spelled in full e.g. December. This part differs as well, for each string. The "yyyy" part contains the year in four digits, e.g. 2007. The part after the dot is the same for each string again.

What I need to do:
- is to extract the month and assign it to a new string
- extract the year and assign it to a new string
- extract the roman number, translate it to a normal number (II -> 2) and assign to a string (or integer).

Give Cell A Value Based On Length Of Row (variable Row Length)

Jan 9, 2010

My worksheet contains data with the reaction times on a psychological test. Each respondent in the test has 280 rows in my excel sheet.

The 'perfect' length of the row, is from A to M. When an error is made in the test, the length of the row will increase. So the error length can be A to AA.

For me it is important to analyse the error. So I would like to give a perfect row length, the value 1, and an error row length a value 2.

So, in conclusion:

If:
Cell length = A1 - M1? --> Copy A1 B1 C1 (A B Cof that row) to Sheet3, and give D1 in sheet 3 the value 1

Cell length >= A1 - M1? --> Copy A1 B1 C1 (A B C of that row) to Sheet3, and give D1 in sheet 3 the value 2

Selecting A Variable Column Range

Selecting Range Variable In Different Worksheets Within Same Workbook

Aug 22, 2014

I want to make a range variable ("testrange") that I can use to define a range of non-continuous cells and then use that range variable to select that range of cells in different worksheets within the same workbook.

I tried the below code (simply coloring cells red), but get an error when I try to select "testrange" after moving to the next worksheet.

[Code] .....

The next worksheet is also supposed to have the same range of cells colored red, but I can only get it to work on the first active sheet.

I would like to avoid having to repeatedly rebuild the range I want selected each time I move to a different worksheet.

Sum Of Variable Length Ranges?

Jun 20, 2014

So I have got an identifier and a corresponding column of values. I need to calculate sum of those corresponding values for each identifier, so if identifier is 1993, I need to have a sum of all the corresponding values. These identifiers repeat, and I do not want to calculate sum for all of them, just the immediate identifiers (i.e. you have 1993, after that you may have 1994 etc etc and then at one point you will have 1993 again, but that "new" 1993 will have a different sum of course). Also, identifiers do not go in sequence sometimes (however, most of the case they do), for example 1993 may jump suddenly to 2004. The trick with all of this is variable "row width" of these identifiers...

Text Parsing With Variable Length?

Jun 10, 2014

Column M:
##/##/#### | Variable Length Text-####

Example:
01/06/2014 | Daniel Trimble-4048

I need to parse out the different parts of Column M.

In Column R -- "Close Date", I'm successfully using:
=LEFT(M2,FIND(" | ",M2)-1)

...to extract the close date of the donation.

In Column S, I want to list the donor name--which is all of the text after " | ", and before the "-".

I don't need anything after the hyphen, and fortunately in this data, no one's name has a hyphen in it.

The Close Date is working fine for the LEFT and FIND functions, but for the life of me, I can't seem to get MID to work for the variable-length text. The text will always start in the same position -- 14, as the date and delimiter are standardized. And the last 5 characters of the text are not variable in length, so they can be cut out completely.

How do I use MID to extract everything starting at position 14, and stopping 5 characters short of the end of the text?

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
column.

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?

Build A Variable Length Array

Apr 10, 2007

I am trying to do is to build an array from a series of cells that may or may not contain text.

For example cells A1:A6 may be equal to red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple,
but each cell may also be blank.

So I might also have blank, blank, yellow, blank, blue, purple.

Is there a way I can make an array of just {yellow, blue, purple}? and then the next time it may be {red, blue}

Or can I index only cells that have text?

In the end, I just need a way to make a selection from only those cells that have text.

String Parsing With Variable Length Strings

Mar 28, 2006

I am trying to split up a cell into numbers and charachters and place them in
separate columns, but the lenght of the number part varies as does the
content of the character part.

For example, one cell could be 5#, 10Tins, 4 lb, 100Pcs, etc.
I would like to be able to pull out the #, Tins, lb, and Pcs in to their
own column.

I have found this formula:
=LEFT(A1,FIND("-",A1,1)-1)

but it assumes some level of consistency, the "-" in the cell.

How To Write A UDF That Returns Variable Length Of Data

May 24, 2008

If you have used Excel to download data from Bloomberg, you probably noticed that the function "BDH" can return an array of variable length. I was trying to design such a function but could not find a way.

The basic feature of a function like this is that it can be entered like an ordinary formula (not an array formula), but it returns multiple values. The values will be displayed in the range that has the formula as its top left corner.

Extracting Text From A String With Variable Length

Jan 13, 2009

Hey I got a long String like this "[...] increase of x.xx% [...]".

I am trying to extract only the percentage number which can be of variable length, so maybe 900.99% or 9.99%.

I tried this formula:
=MID(G14,SEARCH("%",G14)-5,5)
but this one doesnt bring the right results as the percentage figure is often not exactly 5 characters long.

Macro Selecting Cells Via Variable?

Feb 18, 2012

I'm trying to make a macro'd button that when clicked will select the cells A1:A?? where ?? is equal to the value in cell B1

B1 is a variable number that changes to be the proper amount of rows that I require selected.

It's always A1 down to A9 minimum and A1 down to A400 max.

Once selected I need the macro to copy the selected cells to the clipboard for another application to be able to paste that info.

So far I've been able to get the copy command to work and the range command to work but can't seem to figure out how to put the variable number from B1 into the range command.

Selecting First Row (variable) In Table Using Macro?

Oct 2, 2013

I've made a macro and spend some time making it work across different sizes of data. The last issue I'm having is after the macro sorted out some data, that it will then delete, it has to select the first row and shift select down before deleting it. However, depending on how the data is sorted, the first row could be 9, could be 10 and so on. See below for my code.

Code:
Sub Macro1()
Windows("statistik.xls").Activate
Range("A8").Select

[Code]....

If the first row in my data set is not one of the 3 criteria ("Personligt ejede virksomheder", "Privat", "Reklamebeskyttet"), then the first row # will be 10 instead of 9. If the first two rows are not one of the 3 criteria, then it would be row 11 and so forth. How do I make my macro take this into consideration?
