I have a named range that populates a list box. The spreadsheet has a macro that allows additions to the list. The macro will expand the range to include the addition but the List box does not show the update unless I save the workbook and reopen. How can I accomplish this without having to close and reopen?
View 4 RepliesI am trying to fill a Listbox dynamically. I have a range labeled 'Dates'. This range is created dynamically when i click a refresh button. New dates are grabbed from a database, then inserted into a worksheet, then the range 'Dates' is created to define the list of dates from the database. Also, I have a Clear Button. This button deletes all the dates in the worksheet, which I would want to clear all of the selections in the Listbox.
My Questions are:
1) How do i dynamically update a listbox with a Dynamic Named Range? I currently have vba to assign the ListFillBox property with the range name. However, when i click refresh to grab a new list of dates, the ListBox object freezes and/or does not refresh with the new dates.
2) How do i clear the listbox. Currently, I have vba to assign ListFillBox = "", however this will freeze the listbox and/or not clear its content.
I am using a multiselect listbox object.
Let's say you have a named range, Rng1, which consists of cells A1 & A2. In vba how would you report back what, if any, named range the following cells resides:

here are multiple named ranges so using intersect is not feasible. Essentially, through code, I will be given a range and I need to determine if that range if part of a named range.
I want to update a number of charts using data that covers a rolling 12 months - this will be amended each month by addition of new data but I will be retaining the full history. I thought the easiest and quickest way would be to name the data range and just amend it each month as I added new data. However, when I use the named range in the chart wizard it is replaced by direct cell references. Can anyone suggest how I can retain the name in the chart or suggest an easy alternative method?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make my named ranges remember the values of the last active cells used within another named range. The purpose of this is to make my charts dynamically change dependant on two criteria selected. My spreadsheet currently updates itself as and when I change the active cell within a single named range, dynamically changing the chart data by using Lookup based on the active cells value. However I want to get away from having several charts showing, I would like to have a single chart which dynamically changes based on a second selection. So the first selection is for a department (Facility) which changes the chart data relevant to that department, the second selection is to dynamically change the chart shown for the pre selected department.

Using the following code when updating just one criteria with several charts
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Application.Intersect(ActiveCell, [MeasureType]) Is Nothing Then
[valMeasurePicked] = ActiveCell.Value [code].....
which works fine but I'm not sure how to add a second selection criteria because my code uses Activecell. I thought that the VBA needed to set the last used value of a range as a variable and therefore allow the second criteria to be selected but am not sure how to put it into practice.
When in a Combobox from the Control toolbox toolbar, the data for the Listfillrange are in a column (e.g.: myrange = $A:$A), it works fine. But when the data in myrange are in a row (eg.: myrange is =$1:$1) , the combobox shows nothing!. What can I do to show the combobox all data (A1,B1,C1,D1 - last data?) ?

I would like to combine List1 and List2 into a 3rd named range called List3. I was wondering if this were possible without using any additional cells/columns (i.e. I don't want to use Column C like in the example shown in the link above).
Here's the formula from the example:
Code:
=IFERROR(INDEX(List1,ROWS(C1:$C$1)),IFERROR(INDEX(List2,ROWS(C1:$C$1)-ROWS(List1)),""))
I've played around with it, but could not come with any that worked.
On Sheet1 I have ListBox1 referencing data from Sheet2 for the ListFillRange property. The Listbox is a control box added on to the worksheet.
I wish to have a VBA Subroutine that defines the ListFillRange dynamically according to the size of the source data range. ie. Sometimes the range is AH3:AL300, othertimes the range could be AH3:AL200 etc. The last row of data needs to be the last selection in the Listbox.
The range looks like:
1 10:00 blah
2 10:05 moreblah
etc
I'm using a Combo Box the contents of which are on another worksheet.
This data is pulled in using a database query(MSQuery). The data source could be 5 lines long or thousands of lines long(Customer dependant).
I have tried specifying the listfillrange using $G5:$H8700 for example which works for the current dataset. If i change the dataset which only has range G5:H87 then the properties of the combobox listfillrange change to $G5:$H87 but the actual list has more than 82 lines and displays the 82 lines over and over again. I haven't counted the number of lines but it could be thousands.
Is it possible to use the Combobox ListFillRange to list values from two groups of cells? For example, in column 'A', I have the values, 1,2,3; and in Column 'B', I have the values, A, B, C. I want to list the values in column 'A' along with the value of say, B, in Column 'B'.
combobox.listfillrange = "Sheet1!A1:A3" < ---- how to include value B from column B in this list? Or, how to get value A from column B?
I have read post re this question but have not been able to answer my problem. I get the error message 'Application defined or object defined error' when running the code below. I should indicate the range counter currently indicated about 6,200 rows that this code will work on and the individual range names in the list of 6,200 rows are spread over at least 20 worksheets.
The code appears to be running but after some time it stops on the line of code 'Range(Cells(i, 1).Value) = Cells(i, 2)'.
Sub PopulateWithImportData()
Dim counter As Integer
counter = Sheets("Imported Data").Range("Counter")
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Worksheets("imported data").Select
Range("a1").Select
i = 1
Do Until i = counter
Range(Cells(i, 1).Value) = Cells(i, 2)
i = i + 1

I need method, using a button, that looks at a cell--say EO2, for example--, looks back on a master worksheet at a specified row and range for a match, then looks at the information from a specified range below the matching cell (The information in this column will either be blank or have an "X" in the cell), and then those rows that do not have an "X" will be hidden in the corresponding rows in the working worksheet. Therefore, if at any time the value in "EO2" ever changes, then it will automatically find a new match and repopulate and hide information as before. About 130 columns will have its own button so that a "query" can be made that depends on the information in a particular cell in that column.
The master worksheet now has matrix of 287 rows and 58 columns. Each row is for an operating procedure and each column shows a job code. An "X" in a coordinate cell for a column/row shows whether that job code is responsible for knowing that operating procedure. So, on the working sheet, an employee's primary job code is given underneath his or her name. When the button is pushed, all the operating procedures not required for a given person will be hidden and only the required ones will remain visible--grouped, if you will. Qualification dates will be easier to see now that the information is consolidated. Whenever someone transfers to a new position, a new code will be inputed on the working sheet. When the button is pushed, a new grouping will result. Any operating instructions that overlap will still have qualification dates, so that information will not need to be transcribed.
Im sorting a dynamic range as mentioned in this Sorting a Named Range. My range is called drWarningTypes and is defined as:

When there is only one cell in the range, then running the following sort function includes A1 also in the search (and also adjoining columns).....
I am trying to calculate some averages. What I have is 3 columns of data in A, B, C, also the "tasks" in A are in named ranges ex: "Award Contract" is a named range - "Task_Award" and "Confirm Updates" is a named range - "Task_Updates". I've attached a sample excel sheet.
I'd like to be able to create a macro to evaluate column A, and for every row in range "Task_Award", give me the average of the corresponding cells in column C and put it in the same range of cells in column B , then, for every row in "Task_Confirm" then give me the average of the same range of cells in column C and place the result in the same range of cells in column B. This is my very first post so I hope I am doing this correctly. I have 77 of these task ranges to evaluate and it will take a long time to do it manually. I'm thinking of a loop function.
I have a column of data that keeps getting new information in it. what i need is a named range that i can use for a chart, first point in the named range will be the first value in the column, second point will be avg. of point 1 and 2, then 3rd point will be avg. of 1,2,3 etc.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a named range that expands and contracts based upon the amount of data that is in some column. Call it AllData_UsedRange.
I have another named range that actually refers to a range. Call it AllData.
Column A
Row2 56
Row3 44
Row4 65
AllData is a named range that refers to the range A2:A65536
AllData_UsedRange refers to A2:A4 by way of this formula.
=OFFSET(AllData,0,0,COUNTA(AllData))
How to I obtain an address of AllData_UsedRange in VBA code?
These do not work...
ThisWorkbook.Names("AllData_UsedRange").RefersToRange.Address

I am trying to create a graph for a range of data that updates monthly (adding an extra month each time). I wanted the graph source data to update automatically each time the data is refreshed so used an OFFSET formula to identify a named range. I then point the graph to the named range as the source data.
When I enter the range as the source data the graph picks it up. However, when I re-enter the source data option on the graph it has converted the named range into a cell written range (ie. replaces "=QUALITY" with "='Front page'!$B$7:$J$10" - which therefore will not update when the range increases.
I know that I can return the value of a defined name range, the address, and even the value of the define name, but if you are given a range address, how do you find its corresponding defined name in code?

I'm trying to write VBA that would:
1. Search a Workbook for Dynamic Ranges.
2. When a Dynamic Range is found the code would:
A. Determine the current coordinates for the range.
B. Change the "Refers To" value From "=OFFSET...." To "=Worksheet_Name $Column$Row:$Column$Row"
3. Save Changes.
4. Close File.
My apologies but I have very little experience in writing VBA. I understand about variables, arguments, and IF/THEN but just enough to use functions within Excel.
I have a named range, called SubjectNamesPastoral on a worksheet called Worksheets("Group to Teacher")
I can't assign the named range to the rngSubjectFamilyRangeOnSubjectUsedSheet variable in vba.
the first two lines of code work fine, the msgbox shows "E100:E105", happy days!
However when I try to assign the same range to the rngSubjectFamilyRangeOnSubjectUsedSheet variable, the debugger runs past the 'Set' line without error, but throws 'error 91' at the second msgbox.
VB:
thisString = "SubjectNames" & strSubjectFamilyOfGroup
MsgBox Range(thisString).Address
Set rngSubjectFamilyRangeOnSubjectUsedSheet = Worksheets("Group to Teacher").Range(thisString)
OK, I have a huge SS with lots of named ranges. Many of which are dynamically assigned lists.
All of the existing ones work fine, but when try to add a new named range, it returns the cells from a previously named range. (Always the same old one.)
example:
A range (one of many) is named "Shift_List" and is defined using
=OFFSET(info!$C$3, 0, 0, COUNTA(info!$C$3:$C$2000),1)
New range is created named "PN_List" and is defines using
=OFFSET(info!AA$3, 0, 0, COUNTA(info!AA$3:AA$2000),1)
When I create a Data Validation List or otherwise use "Shift_List" as the source it works fine.
However if I do the same thing and refer to "PN_List", it returns the items from "Shift_List"
Any new named range returns the Shift_List cells, although older ones still work correctly.
Line of code that will Select a Named Range in this case I have Named a CELL "DataSummary" Need to use that named range by selecting 30 columns and 54 rows.
Range("DataSummary),(??,??) doesn't work.
how to use SUM Formula a column from within a Named Ranges or Dynamic Named Range?
For example, if the range name "MyData" refers to the address: A1:G10, how could I sum all the numbers in column G of that range where column A meets certain criteria.
Eg., Column A holds fruit names:
Apple
Orange
Banana
Apple
and column G holds quantities of the particular fruit. I'd like to sum column G (quantity) for only those quantities that match "Apple" in column A.
I am looking for a Macro that will allow me to update the range of a Defined name range such as every time I add a name into the list, the only thing I will be doing is passing the client name and the list of client will be automatically updated and my drop down ListBox will show the new client name, which can be selected by the user.
