VB Backward & Forward Loop
Dec 17, 2008
I'm writing a VB macro that will find the start time and finish time of a job and then work out the time it took to run.
So for example:
D E
09:53 wsp285A 09:53 wsp285A 09:53 wsp285A 09:53 wsp285A 09:53 wsp285A 09:59 wsp285A 09:59 wsp285A 10:06 wsp285A 10:06 wsp285A 10:13 wsp285A 10:13 wsp285A 10:20 wsp285A 10:20 wsp285A 10:26 wsp285A 10:26 wsp470a 10:29 wsp470A 10:29 wsp470A10:29 wsp470A 10:29 wsp470A 10:29 wsp470A 10:29 wsp470A
In the above I want to work our how long job 285A takes, I will need to find the first instance of the job by looping forwards through the data, and the last instance by looping backwards, then taking the last time away from the first.
The only problem is, I have no idea how to write this in VB!!
The job name is always in column E
The time is always in column D
I want to paste the time taken in for arguments sake in cell E1 of the current worksheet

when I run the code, because I have used many "Sheets("SheetNameHere").Select", the user will see the sheets flicking backward and forward many times and to avoid confusion, I don't want them to think "what the hell!"
Is there a way where I can still activate the sheets needed, but to somehow run all of "the code" in the background so all the user see's is maybe a status box or something which says "Please wait..."

I have a workbook with 2 sheets. Sheet1 has a textbox and 2 option buttons named "north"and "south", and 2 command buttons named "send"and "retrieve".
Also a lot of other boxes, but they're not relevant.
I enter a unique number in the textbox, press one of the option buttons and press "send".
All data is now written in sheet2 in one row.
this all works ok.
Sometimes I need to change some data, so I enter the number in the textbox and press "retrieve". I get all the data back on sheet1, except the option buttons don't change correct. If on sheet2 the value = "north" I would like optionbutton1 to have the black dot and if the value="south" optionbutton2 should have the dot.
Now it's like they are on strike. they just don't react folowing the value of sheet2,collumn G, row "x".

below fig 1 is a part of a worksheet we are using for Stock. The idea is to track stock write downs on a yearly basis. Where I am struggling is a formula to carry the stock balance and value forward if there has been no movement in a given year.
The enteries in green (fig1) colums "Stk Forw" & "Car Fwr" represent how I would like the info to look.
Is there a formula that could look for the last entry in "Stk In/Out" if the column "YTD to date" is empty and carry that value forward to the next row.
I Would also need a formula to sum the Total & Car Fwr colums as one total.
Fig 2 Shows the formula I am currenlty using.

I want to make a template in excel. Lets assume I have Opening Balance in A1 and closing balance in B1. How do I make template make new sheet and every time I make new sheets it should take the closing balance of the previous sheet as the opening balance and so on and so forth. But the very first sheet needs to have the opening balance as unlocked cell but the rest of them needs to be locked.

Is there anyway to be able to bring decimal point forward without affecting the numbers using any formatting, which will still be there even after refreshing the query.
For example, 0.0531 to 53.1

Example: 10.1 10.2 10.3 10.4 11.1 11.2 11.3 etc.
I wish to insert a formula that will roll forward or back this data when required.
I have no problem rolling whole numbers & dates.
Iam using Excel 2000.

I'm working with a large list of items of varying length. A sample worksheet is attached. I need to do the following:
1) If the characters after the final forward slash from the right are of the pattern "tttxxx" (where "t" is text and "x" is a number/digit), then return all characters to the right of the final slash, including the slash itself:
Y:/Series/hun/hun109 ----> /hun109
2) if the characters after the final slash from the right are not of the pattern "tttxxx", then return all characters after the second slash from the right, including the slash:
Z:/Series/crd/crd409/editorial ----> /crd409/editorial
3) if there are less than 3 backslashes in the item, return a blank.

I have three columns (9, 10, & 11); text, currency, and text and I am trying to move them from seperate columns on Sheet2 to one column with forward slashes "/" between them on Sheet3. The attached code does this, however I lose the dollar sign and commas.

I have an month input in cells B2 (user can enter values from 1-5)
I then have a data table that has month 1,2,3,4,5 running across range G9:K9. the data is held in range G10:K19.
So if user types in 4 in B2, what should happen is that months 1,2,3 and 4 the data for these months should be cleared and data in month 5 moves forward into month 1.
So basically, anything left of the month entered is B2 should be cleared and replaced with anything right of the month in B2.

With Sheets("regrade pharm_standalone")
For Each r In .Range("standaloneTerritory")
If r.Value = "X101" Then
r.EntireRow.Copy
Sheets("X101").Range("A1").End(xlDown).Offset(1).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
End If
Next r
End With
-------------------
I need to repeat this loop for values from X101 to X151. In all cases, the sheet name is equal to the value I'm looking up (eg: value = X102 goes to sheet X102).
I have a named range called 'territories' that contains the list of X101 -> X152.
I'm hoping to make the code perform the loop for each of the territories without my having to copy & paste and change the 'X101' 51 times as this would seem a rather silly thing to do!

Macro which loops through a number of files and calls the same macro in each of them. Unfortunately when I add "Application.Run..." to the code, it no longer loops through the process and instead stops after updating the first file in the loop. If I remove the "Application.Run..." code and add any other code, the loop works fine and it continues through the process repeating all the steps for each file found.
Why it stops after one file when using "Application.Run..." to call the macros?
NB I have a list of path and file names starting in row 8 of columns A and C. Each file in the list has a macro called UpdateS1 and promoupdate1.

I have working code that returns a row number within a for loop based on parameters I set.
Each time the for loop runs I would like to store this row number, then after the loop has finished, delete all stored rows.
Code:
for rowNum = 1 to x (some variable end row number which I already have worked out using End(xlUp).Row)
if x = y then
*storedRow = rowNum
end if
next rowNum
*
Lines with a * are the bits I can't work out. I've been trying to understand arrays by reading posts on what other people have done, but I can't fit (or fully understand) the reDims, or reDim preserves into my code. I've seen what appear to be quite complex ways involving uBounds and LBounds, but unfortunately I can't see how to use them.
All I want is to simply keep adding a row numbers to a variable, (i.e. row 2, 5, 20, 33, 120, etc) and then delete those specific rows.

I am looping through each cell in a range and I would like to loop in reverse order.
Dim CELL As range
Dim TotalRows As Long
TotalRows = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
For Each CELL In Range("C1", "C" & TotalRows)
CELL.Select
'Code here to delete a row based on criteria
Next
I have tried:
For Each CELL In Range("C" & TotalRows, "C1")
and it does not make a difference. I need to loop in reverse order since what I am doing in the loop is deleting a row. I am looking at a cell and determining its value. If the value is so much, then the row gets deleted. The problem is that the next row "moves up" one row (taking the pervious cell's address) and therefore the For Each Next loop thinks it has already looked at that row.

I have a workbook that contains, say, 50 worksheets: the first two worksheets summarise the data and are static in that they don't move position. However, the next four worksheets contain certain data for any given month. Each time a new month comes along, say, November, I insert four new worksheets after the two static ones as a result October's four worksheets are simply moved down the line in terms of worksheet order.
I need a macro to refer to the first six worksheets only (not the other tabs). I opted for index referencing for each worksheet, ie one - six. Now within these six worksheets in any given month, I need to sort the data by a certain column. The problem: in sheets 1,4,5 and 6 I need to rank by column E, but in sheets 2 and 3 I need to rank by column C. I have stepped through the code, which works for sheets 3-6, but doesn't seem to refer to sheets 1-2.
Sub WorksheetLoop()
'
' Loop through an indexed number of worksheets; _
' & this ensures that the worksheet range is dynamic _
' and is able to adjust when new sheets are added/removed, etc.

Dim i As Long

I've worked on a solution for this thread (http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...-automate.html) but have been mentally challenged with how to avoid changing the loop counter in one of the loops I have used to resort an array of file names from the getopenfile dialog.
The aim of the shown code (see post 12 of the above link for attached file) is to check if the file containing the macro is included in the array returned by getopenfile while sorting the array of file names, and if so, moving it to the end of the array for "deletion" by redimming the array to exclude the last item. This problem of the open file being selected in the dialog may never arise, but... as the OP's request in the other thread was to allow two-way comparisons between numerous files, I've considered it likely enough to test for.
Here's the code I have settled for esp between the commented lines of hash symbols, which does change the counter (see the commented exclamation marks), but prevents an infinite loop (on my second try!) by using a second boolean flag of "HasCounterBeenChanged". Is there a better way of doing this? Or, alternatively (not in my thread title), is it possible to prevent the active file being selected through one of the arguments in the getopenfilename method?

I am working on some code that loops through a column of number values. Whenever it encounters a number value and a blank cell in an offset column, it places that number value into an offset cell (forming a separate column to be compared to another column in a separate sheet). I would like to take all the values in that new column and begin placing them in a new column in a separate sheet adjacent to another table. Most of the time, these values should match the adjacent values in the separate worksheet. However, if they don't match, I would like a new row to be created for that mismatched value.
For example. This is the first worksheet. So far, my macro loops through the column with rows 1-5. It looks in the offset cell(0,2) for Isempty value and then places that value into the offset cell(0,6)

For Each loop can be instructed to loop starting the bottom of the range. I know that a For To Loop can handle looping from the bottom up,
Sub Filterout()
Dim c As Range
Dim rng As Range
Dim i As Long
Dim lrow As Long
Dim counter As Integer
lrow = Cells(Rows.Count, 3).End(xlUp).Row
Set rng = Range("c2:c36")
For Each c In rng
If Left(c.Value, 1) "~~" Then
c.EntireRow.Delete
End If
Next c

i have a problem with a nested loop:
it seems like the first instance of the code is running the way i want it to run, but when it starts with the second instance, it does the first search and copy, but it seems like the nested loop is being ignored.
am i doing something wrong?

here is my main loop A1 = 5000
and second loop need to run inside the this loop
Sheet1.Activate
i = Range("A1")
For b = 1 To i
If Cells(1 + b, 3).Value = "P" Then
Cells(1 + b, 29).Value = 1
Else
If Cells(1 + b, 3).Value = "S" Then

I have loops working in other loops. The macro is almsot working well. It does the calculation i want but it fails to stop a loop, because of that, the macro can't run the next main loop (c), which is to move to the next cell where the calculations must be run.
I attach a file. the troubleshooting macroation is Sub Itiration.
The code of this macro are bellow. Basically, the loop using d as counter run into an endless loop. I don't how to stop this loop without affecting the results which are calculated correctly.
Sub Itiration()
Dim CurCell As Object
Dim TempSum As Double
Dim d As Integer
For c = 3 To Cells(3, 4)
If Cells(11, c) > 0 Then
For i = 1 To Cells(10, c)
