I'm sure this is a very easy question, but I have been having trouble finding the answer on this and other forums.
Our macro has a search routine where it looks through a column for particular cell contents. Once those contents are found, we want it to save that cell's location, go do something else, and then return to that location afterwards. How would we go about doing this?
I had a xl file created which allowed you to key in a contact number or postcode etc in a cell. And it would look the details up and present them in one row.
I no longer have access to this spreadsheet and cannot remember how I did it.
Look at the tab "testing-allproduct" cell C2. If that value exists in the tab name "store-allproduct", cell c2, then take the value from "store-allproduct" cell a2, and put that value into "testing-allproduct cell" A2.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat I am trying to do is during a loop operation, which subtotals variable ranges, I want to store the locations of the cells that it puts the sum function into. I.E. if based on criteria it determines that range E4:E12 is summed into E13, I need to save E13 to use in a formula once I'm out of the loop. I don't know how many instances it will find and there's the possibility in the future that not only will the number of instances increase, but the location could always be different as well. Any way to do this without a million lines of code.

I'm currently working with a fairly large worksheet, and I'm using Cells. Find to look for a specific cell. Then I want to Filter that column, but I can't figure out what column Selection.AutoFilter Field:=? should be.
I would like to record the address of the last set of cells that data was input into to a variable so that a user can choose to delete the last entry. An 'Undo' button really.
What I have is a user form that writes different materials to thier respective sheets in the database. (Material1, Material2, etc.) Some materials have a different number of variables (some have a width and some don't, but all have a quantity.)
This is the code I have for adding the material to the database (each material has it's own button with material specific code.)
Private Sub AddToMaterial1_Click()
Set c = Worksheets("Material1").Range("a65536").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
c.Value = Me.Material1Quantity.Value
c.Offset(0, 1).Value = Me.Material1Description.Value
c.Offset(0, 2).Value = Me.Material1Length.Value
Dim lastenty1
lastentry1 = c.Address
Dim lastentry2
lastentry2 = c.Offset(0, 1).Address
Dim lastentry3
lastentry3 = c.Offset(0, 2).Address
Dim lastentry4
lastentry4 = c.Offset(0, 3).Address
Dim lastentry5
lastentry5 = vbNullString
Dim lastentry6
lastentry6 = vbNullString
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
The following code is what I am trying to do for a single button to clear the last entry to the database.
Private Sub RemoveLastEntry_Click()
Range(lastentry1).ClearContents
Range(lastentry2).ClearContents
Range(lastentry3).ClearContents '(There is always at least 3 cells to clear)
If lastentry4 = nullstring Then Exit Sub
Range(lastentry4).ClearContents
If lastentry5 = nullstring Then Exit Sub
Range(lastentry5).ClearContents
If lastentry6 = nullstring Then Exit Sub
Range(lastentry6).ClearContents
End Sub
I am trying to use the Indirect function to use the value in a cell to select a sheet with the same name as the value of said cell. I have looked at several posts and attempted multiple methods. I still get an error. I cannot find a thread describing exactly what I am trying to do, which is:
reference a cell value to direct the formula to the correct sheet to then complete an array Sumproduct formula.
Since this description barely makes sense to me reading it, I have attached an example. The problem is in cell C7. Basically, I want cell c7 to look at cell c1 and then go to the tab with the matching name as cell c1 and complete the calcuation.
I do data entry for a webstore and one cell is used to map out the exact product category/subcategory path. I currently have to copy the appropriate path from a long list on one page and then paste it into the cell. I have to do this a hundred times a day. It would be nice if each cell within that column can have these values stored in them so I can just click on the cell and open up a drag down box and select the needed value. Is this possible to do in Excel?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have created a number of complex functions that use or create 1-dimensional numeric arrays in VBA, and I would like to store and retrieve some of these arrays within single cells of a worksheet so that I can use them in dependent functions without having to store and display the entire array with one element per cell, and without having to recalculate the same intermediate array multiple times within VBA.
Are there any existing worksheet or VBA functions (or is it possible to create two functions) that can convert and store an entire numeric array within a single cell of a worksheet (e.g., as text), and then convert this back into a form which can be read and recognized as a numeric array by another function?
Or is there any other way to avoid filling my worksheet with arrays, or having to recalculate them each time within VBA?
I have in column B, cells that have any number, one number or several like B2.
#

Thinking that I have a loop for rows 1 to 3:
When in column "A" is "No", I want to consider values in C and D to get:
Code:
a[1]=Cells(1,"C") & "-" & Cells(1,"D") & "-" & "ABC"
But when in column "A" is "Yes", I want to store in array each value within cell in B (in this example B2) to apply later a For/For Each
over each number (in this example are 3 values only within cell B2), something like:
Code:
a[1]=Value_In_B2[1] & "-" & "ABC"
a[2]=Value_In_B2[2] & "-" & "ABC"
a[3]=Value_In_B2[3] & "-" & "ABC"
I am having trouble using the find function. I need to store a date as a variable and then find this date on another worksheet. The date is in the following format:
dd-mmm-yy
This is what I currently have which gives me a run time error 91:
Code:
Dim DateSearch As Date
DateSearch = Range("C3").Value
Cells.Find(What:=DateSearch, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
I have a table in which I have a "patient" column and a "page" column. The macro searches for a patient's number, then looks if this patient has the page "900.--". A patient may have more than one page, which will result in many rows with the same patient number. So far, my macro uses the search function to find a patient number, then compares the cell next to the active cell to see if it contains the page "900.--". If not, then my macro searches for the next patient and so on until the page is found and noted into another workbook or none is found.
In order to stop the loop, I am trying to store the address of the first cell found into a variable "rFirstCell" so that it can later on be compared to another variable, "rSecondCell", which represent the active cell. When both are the same, it means all the available search results have been tested and the loop should stop.
Sub testing()
Dim rRng As Range, rFirstCell As Range, rSecondCell As Range
Set rRng = Worksheets("Overview").[a1]
Dim sDeath As String
sDeath = "death"

I have a worksheet where some cells contain a comment. I don't know beforehand how many of those cells are present, nor their address. I want to write a macro that stores the values of only the cells that contain a comment into an array (of course the size of the array is not known beforehand). This should be done by scanning through those special cells in a given order (by rows, by columns, whatever).

I have a spreadsheet with near 300 tabs, each with a picture in the tab. The main tab has a list of all other tabs, the goal is to allow the user to click on a cell next to an entry, and have Excel flash the referenced tab to allow the user to see what the entry is referencing. I have written a simple macro that activates a desired tab, unhides it, displays a message box to pause the macro, rehides the tab, then returns the user to the main tab.
Rather than creating a macro for all 300 tabs and creating buttons I would love to use the Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByBal Target As Range) or some variation thereof, to make my life much easier. The name of the tab is in cell A2, so I would want to have the user click on cell A1, activate the macro, then take A1 to A2 with something like A1 = A(x+1)->A2, then display the tab listed in A2. So rather than have 300 macros with Sheets("XYZ").Visible = True, I would love it to read Sheets(contents of referenced cell).Visible = True. with the contents of referenced cell coming from some manipulation of the cell I clicked on...

I am trying to write a VBA procedure that uses nested For/Next loops to store the contents of a range in three worksheets to a 3 D array and then input the array into another location.
I have no problem doing this for a 2 D array, but am completely stumped on what changes I need to make in order to perform the same task on a 3 D array.
I will post my code for 2 D arrays below and will also post the uncompleted 3 D code, although, it is currently of no use because I am so lost on the 3 D array.
How do I reference sheet1,sheet 2 etc. when declaring my 3 D array? I know how to reference the rows and columns for my 2 D array by using the cells or range object, but what to do for the different sheets.
Two D Array:
Code:
Public Sub For_Next_Two_D_Array() Dim I As Integer
Dim J As Integer
Dim MyArray(4, 4) As Integer
For I = 1 To 5
For J = 1 To 5

I have some code (listed below) that will open 2 groups of files(for testing purposes, I have been using for only 2 file prefixes, but will need for upwards of 10, and more may be added in the future), depending on what files have been opened in the past (it will skip those) and then import the new ones.
I am now trying to clean up my code, and having alot of it abled to be maintained be editing a spreadsheet (administator controlled)
What I would like to do is something similar to:
defvar= cells(1,1) 'where cells(1,1) has all of the info for that file to import
Selection.TextToColumns defvar

My plan was to store them in an array, but I can't think how to do it. In python, I would just make a list of tuples, what is the best way to do this in VBA?
Currently We enclosed a Workbook (with exiting VBA code) In this workbook 3 sheet exit (Edit, Details, Summary)
In Details Sheet store Detail Entry of Invoice & in Summary Sheet we store all generated Invoice details in summary form
We want new VBA or correction in existing VBA.
My Exiting VBA work following..
When Enter Invoice Number in Edit Sheet (Cell B2) then Display Entered Invoice Data
First Code Find Invoice Number in Summery Sheet if Invoice Number found then Record Display of Selected Invoice
Here we Edit As per our requirement then We Press Y in Edit Sheet Cell C30
If Found C30 "Y" & "Data ok" in E30 then DELETE Selected Invoice Data From SUMMERY & DETAILS SHEETS & COPY THIS EDITED DATA (RANGE A33 TO G33 In Summery Sheet & Range A35 to A60 in Details Sheet)
My Exiting code work perfectly as per above
We want only following thing
Currently when we copy edited data that move to end of sheet We want to Change & same place where data exit previously before edited. Because serial number disturb.
NOTE : in Editing Time is it possible Few Item Delete or Few Item Add
Can I store a value with out storing it in a field? -with the macro ending?
Ex macro1 runs and gets A1.value
Stores the value (Not in a cell)
I later run macro2
Gets the stored value
In a cell I will be having many strings separated by a ";" for ex
columna A
a; b; c; d ; e
f; g; h; i; j; k
how to store this in a macro?
I have a two rows of data one containing names and the other containing corresponding numbers. The names are static and the numbers change on a daily basis. I want to be able to copy the numbers to a static table next to each name on a daily basis (so I can see what the value was a few weeks ago).
Is there anything I can write to do this job?
My thinking was to set a vlookup to grab the data but i'm not sure how this would work because the vlookup would change daily when the numbers change
I have tried to look for this in several websites and have not found the appropiate answers. So i figured one of the Wizards in this board can help me. Right now when I built a macro it has to be dependent to a file. However I like to build a macro button that when I use it, it will actually just work for any given currently open sheet.

I'm looking for is ComplyXL and that costs $300 to buy. So, as a poor grad student, I'm looking for an alternative solution - either a freeware program or a hassle-free VBA code.
So here's what I need the code or program to do: When I ask excel to open a pre-existing file, I'd like it to automatically rename (& compress?) the last used version of the file & save that to a filename-specific archive somewhere (hidden?), before opening the file as requested. Alternatively, I suppose that a mirror copy of each 'just used' file could be created & saved to an archive folder whenever the used file is saved & closed.
--Note: to avoid making copies of EVERY workbook I ever use, I suppose there should also be a button in the toolbar or a file-associated setting that lets me identify which files I want this task to apply to...
Basically I'm looking to have excel automatically save versions of certain key files (like Word's 'Versioning' feature) without having to remember to 'Save As', without the versions taking up much space, and without having to store the older file versions in the same place as the most recent one.
And yes, I know that a similar problem has already been posted & solved here, but they didn't include a way to choose which files used versioning nor (if it's possible) a way to compress the archived versions to save space (maybe by adding it into a WinRAR archive somewhere?).
