I've read somewhere that Enum are limited to a "Long" variable type only? I did test that code I showed above and it really does return a Type Mismatch error so I guess it is true? Just wanted to ask anyway for other solution perhaps if the above is not possible?
What I'm getting at is to just select the constant based on what intellisense present (but of course constant that are of string type) .
I'm trying to use application.match() but I'm running into a issue where I don't know if I'll be matching a string or long data type...
Here's the snippet of code:
Code: ' UNIT DATA ' Set Unit# s1 = ActiveSheet.Pictures(Application.Caller).Name iLen = Len(s1) s1 = Mid(s1, 2, iLen - 2) ' Set Sel Ex Work Date iCheck = Application.Match("MACHINE_NUMBER", Sheets("Allocation").Columns(1), 0)
[code]....
How can I get application.match to look for strings if s1 = "ABC123" or numbers if s1 = "123456"
I've tried dim variant and s1 + 0... But, haven't come up with a solution.
With the following procedure, I am using a Part ID number to look up that part's location in a worksheet. To do this, I am using the DGET function which now works, thanks to all who helped with those issues.
But now I'm trying to harness the outcomes from that function. --It displays #VALUE! if the part ID number was not found in my worksheet and therefore the function can't return a location. --It displays # NUM! if the part ID number was found in multiple records/rows in my worksheet and so it has multiple corresponding locations.
I am trying to construct an IF section that will clarify what these mean to anyone running this macro. I want to replace #VALUE! with "Not Found" and #NUM! with "Numerous".
The issue arises when I compare the result of the function with the #VALUE! or #NUM! strings. I've tried StrComp and a simple equals sign (as below) I've even tried having Option Compare at the top, though I'm not familiar with how that would change things. But I am getting "Type Mismatch Error 13" all the time. I also get that error when set my DGET function = to a variable (Dim'ed as string)
Variables to point out: ---Sheeti is a Publically defined Worksheet ---'CriteriaRange : Publically defined Range that is empty (until assigned criteria for my DGET function later within my loop) ---'InventoryRange : Pubically defined Range that contains inventory data that I look through with my DGET function (Items in the inventory are identifyable by a string I call "sItem" and each has a location in a corresponding column that I am looking for with my DGET function)
Public Sub LoopThruParts()
Dim y As Integer Dim sItem As String Dim ValueError As String Dim NumError As String
My code below returns a type mismatch? It is looking at the values in column B which are formatted as text and the output is in column J. An example of a value is 2.1.15 I want to extract 1 (i.e. the central character between two ".").
VB: Sub ConvertLineNo()
Dim r As Long, TempStr As String For r = Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row To 1 Step -2 TempStr = Cells(r, "B") TempStr = Split(TempStr, ".") Cells(r, "J").Value = TempStr Next End Sub
I have declared a 'long' variable. however; how do I change the variable data type to string if user input is not a number? how do I recognize the user input's datatype?
1. Is there a VBA Function equivalent to the FIND() function, If so What is it? 2. Let's say Im Putting a Date into a inputbox, what is the type # for date (Type:=?)??
As shown in the below image. I have some data from A13 to I 13. Currently if I put the cursor on A13 and press DELETE button then all the formatting from A13 to I13 goes off. But the data still remain there.
Is it possible then when I press DELETE the content of A13 then all the data from B13 to I13 should also get deleted ?

I have a udf that returns a string to the cell. The string is made up of multiple string "objects". What I am wondering is if I can set the font color of certain objects so that when the final string is built and returned, the font of those portions is set.
Ex. of simple idea (this is not actually my code, just a way to illustrate. I realize there is no point to this UDF):
VB:
Function StringReturn (Str1 As String, Str2 As String, Str3 As String) As String StringReturn = Str1 & Str2 & Str3 End Function
Now what if I wanted Str1 and Str3 to be blue, and Str2 to be red for example. So that when the UDF calculates it would return: Str1Str2Str3
Wondering if it is possible to generate a random 4 digit number based off an alphanumeric string?
Example;
Cell A1 has 123XVF1234 Cell A2 has 321AFW4321
In B1 I would like to have a 4-6 digit number that is generated based on the alphanumeric data in Cell A1 (and so on down the list). If that is possible, I would also need to be able to convert back the 4-6 digit number back to its original alphanumeric value
Example;
If B1 returns 643562 it would need to be able to be converted back to 123XVF1234
In sheet1 I have a simple database consisting of 5 columns of data
Column A : Name ie James Jones Column B : payroll number ie 123456 Column C : shift times ie 1245-2124 Column D : job title ie floor Column E : comments ie A/L or 0600-1500
what I would like is some code that will go down Column E and if a 'time string' ie 1300-2130 is found then copy this string and paste into corresponding value in column C. If a text string is found ie A/L or Sick or anything like this then ignore and move onto next cell, loop this until all cells in column E have been checked.
I need to create a string of all the Acc Number but I dun not wan any repeat of the same Acc number in the String . The number of Acc number to be put in the string may varies sometimes. It may varies from 3 to 1000 or more . Is there a way to write a general formula to create such string?
I have a situation where a word (in this case "Restaurant") is misspelled in a list of about 78,000 location names. The location names are in one column, and the [misspelled] word "Restaurant" is anywhere between the first word of the string, to the last, with any amount of alphanumeric/symbol characters between. For example:
Alice's Restaurant Alli's Restaurant & Bar Alexis Restaurant of Waukesha Amigo's Mexican Restaurant #2
I want to replace any misspellings of the word with correct, but since the list is so long, and the way the word is misspelled varies so much, going through manually is entirely too time-consuming.
Some of the variations I've seen so far are Resta, Restau, Restaur, Restuara, etc...
Is there a way to search and replace cells that contain the text in any location of the string? Specifically, where ever there is JUST "Restau", replace with "Restaurant", regardless of where it is in the string? This way, trailing text is not deleted or manipulated, i.e. "Alice's Restaur and Bar" will change to "Alice's Restaurant and Bar".
I have a spreadsheet which has "Employee: [agent 1 name]" in column A and it may or may not have the word "Break" in the same column before it mentions "Employee: [agent 2 name]". The amount of data between agent 1 and agent 2 varies and am needing code which will insert a row above "Employee: [agent 2 name]" if "Break" is not found, and add the word "Break" in column A on the inserted row. I would need this to loop through the spreadsheet until all 100+ agents have been searched.
I'm also needing this done for the word "Meeting" and would insert a row 2 rows above the next agent.
I'm using a userform to create a new sheet. The form already creates the sheet and names it what was typed into the userform. Now I want it to place that variable in a cell along with a string. the following code will place the variable from the form (tbname) into cell b5.
I can't use the "" sign as delimiter to separate them into different columns because the age,city,name and height fields are in random positions on different cells.The good thing is person's name will always come after "name" string, age is alwals followed by "age" string, so it cannot be like nameheight40Michigan180
I think the following would be the easiest method(not for me tho).If on B1 I had a formula that said "find the string "name" and write anything after it until you reach the next "" character".On C1 field I could have a formula "find the string "age" and write anything after it until you reach the next "" character.On D1 I would have the same for "height" string,then on E1 for city string.
My question is somewhat similar to this one Extract A String Between Two Characters
Formula which outputs the data between 3rd and 4th instances of the "_" character.Can we substitute "3rd and 4th" with a specific strings like "age" or "height" ?
I have a problems here. The problems is attached in the file. I wanna extract alpha/char from a string. Example: I wanna extract the words "(M)" with the bracket from the string "Toothbrush (M)" in column A. After extracting the (M) out, I wanna do a validation to compare the (M) in column B with another data in column C, if the (M) is same as the data called "Medium" in column c, the validation will return "Match" in the column d!
I am trying to lookup if a string like a name exists in another string which has a buch of values for example to see if andy exists in a string which has data like andy;sandy or sandy exists in andy;sandy
Whenever aiming to open, copy, or delete files, the following VBA code is rather a must
Dim SOMETHING Set SOMETHING = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") in that we may then continue with either
SOMETHING.CopyFile (source), destination, True or
SOMETHING.DeleteFile what_to_delete, True etc, etc The question: which type a variable is SOMETHING from above? Furthermore, could anybody please help me to understand why never seen in literature a complete declaration such as
where I can find some documentation or information (exluding the Excel helpfile) about Excel's Array Type? There seems to be an inexplicable lack of information about it!
To be clear, when I say "array type", I mean the data type that the TYPE() worksheet function returns a value of 64 on.
Assume cell A1 is "ageioslop315555555138lkeameox". Is there a formula that I could use that could match 31555555138, and if it matches put the 31555555138 in cell A2. You can probably see where I am going with this, there is several thousand lines that has sporadic descriptions that I need to find out which ones have certain #'s that correspond with info. on our end.
