VBA Code To Detect Longest Cell Containing Data And Copying Whole Range

Feb 9, 2014

I am trying to do the following with VBA.

What i need is to find out the last cell with data and then selecting the whole range and copying it.

Please see the below.

As you can see, the column with the "longest" data range is B9,C9,D9,E9.

I need a VBA code to detect which Column has the longest Data and from there copy the entire range.

Hence, in this case, the range to be copied is From A2:J9.

Column A
Column B
Column C
Column D
Column E
Column F
Column G
Column H
Column I
Column J

1
2
ttt
rrr
m
vvv
gg
ff

fff
fff

[Code] ..........

Hence,in this case, the range to be copied is From A2 to J14.

Column A
Column B
Column C
Column D
Column E
Column F
Column G
Column H
Column I
Column J

1

Extend Range To Longest Column

Aug 7, 2007

I had asked about automatically naming regions and this is an extension of that post because it's closed. The code we ended up with to name the region is:
Dim sNm As String, sRT As String

If Intersect(Target, Rows(1)) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub '------------------->
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub '---------------------------------------->

sNm = Replace(Trim(Target), " ", "_")
sRT = "=offset(" _
& Target.Address _
& ", 1, 0, counta(" _
& Cells(2, Target.Column).Resize(Rows.Count - Target.Row).Address & ") )"

ThisWorkbook.Names.Add Name:=sNm, RefersTo:=sRT

My problem now is that I need to have the regions be the length of the longest column. I've tried using a few different ways using the worksheet range but I can't seem to get it to work.

Detect Numbers In A Cell Range And Then Change Cells Based On What Numbers Are Found?

Feb 27, 2014

I'm going to be using a spreadsheet to keep track of where different people are at. So if Person 1 is in Room 3, I will stick a 3 in the box next to their name and then can look at the spreadsheet whenever I need and see what room they are in. When I'm deciding what room to put a person in, though, I need to be able to quickly glance at a list of Room #'s and see what one's are still available. So I have a bank of Room #'s in the spreadsheet....1,2,3, etc.

What I'd like, is some way to set this up so that when I put, for example, "3" in the cell next to "Person 1" the spreadsheet automatically removes "3" from the bank of available Room #'s and when I delete the "3" because the person has left, it adds "3" back to the bank of available Rooms.

Detect Largest Range Of Visible Cells In Filtered Range

Jul 3, 2014

I would like to be able to find the largest visible area of continuous rows in a filtered table. I know one possible way would be to loop through visible cells using the "xlCellTypeVisible" property and count cells in each visible area. However, the data is consisted of tens and sometimes hundreds of thousands of rows so I was wondering if there is a faster, more efficient way to do this.

Optimizing VBA Code For Copying Data In A Table To Different Sheet?

Apr 27, 2014

The idea is that I start out with a number of XML files, which I'm trying to manipulate to calculate descriptives and make graphs of in Excel.

So I've made a large "script" in VBA to accomplish these goals, which works, but I'm trying to optimize the code step by step.The overall process that I want to achieve, consists of :

1) Open the XML in Excel as an XML Table

2) Use the filters in the top row of that XML Table to select the data that I want to use

3) The resulting selection consists of data in 6 columns of which I only wish to select column 2, 5 and 6

4) I only wish to select the data in the table of column 2, 5 and 6 (without the header and only the cells in the table) and copy

5) Last step is to paste this data in Sheet "Calculations"

The step I'm working on right now, is step 3-4. My current code is: [Code] ......

This does the job, but I'm trying to optimize it, since I'm handling tons of XML files and I'm performing this copy function a number of times per XML file.

This copies the data of all the columns in the table for the cases that meet the selected criteria, but I'd like to make an even stricter selection of only column 2, 5 and 6 to not waste space and processing power.

So I tried to select the data from the 3 columns and combine them with the Union function, to copy them as one array to the sheet Calculations.

Optimized a similar VBA code to: [Code] ........

But I'm having issues with getting the right selection method and when I run the macro, I get the error message that the Copy and Paste area aren't the same size.

I tried to alter my initial code to something in the line of : [Code] ..........

But I get error messages 1004 : Method 'Range' of Object '_Global' failed.

I've also tried [Code] ........

But this seems to select the whole column, including the header and tons of rows even after the table ended.

Copying VBA Code In Cell Down A Column

I want to copy this code down the column (until reaching an empty row) will cells refernced in the code changing accordingly (just as if i had written the code in the cell and dragged it down a column). A sample of the code I have written is given below.

If Range("E4").Value = "L" Then

Select Case Range("D4").Value

Case 43

Range("H4") = "=2*G4"

Copying Range Of Data Into Another Master Workbook Below Existing Data

Mar 21, 2014

I have a range of weekly data that I need to copy into another workbook, paste it below the data that already exists there and then delete the data from the original workbook. I would love to do this with vba but after hours of searching on how to do this my brain is frazzled.

I have 50 workbooks that I need to import weekly into one master sheet (Master.xlsm) but they need to be done individually after the weekly data has been checked. The master sheet will therefore have existing data and the new data needs to be appended at the bottom. Also column A will be blank in both workbooks so to find the last used row it will need to look in column B.

The number of rows in the weekly sheet will also vary rather than be a fixed range so I guess the last used row will also need to be found there too.

The attached file is a cut down version of my working file showing where the data starts on Row 14, I won't need to copy the headings.

Example file 21.03.xlsm‎

Detect Blank Cell Value

Apr 12, 2007

I am trying to detect if a user leaves a cell empty. I have tried If statements like:

If Target.Value = "" Then

and

If (IsNull(Target.Value) Then

The problem is when the user uses the spacebar to delete an entry in that cell. If they leave any spaces after exiting the cell those if statements fail to run.

Copying Formulae Not Transposing Cell Range

Jul 21, 2006

I have a macro which inserts rows at certain places in a data table. This works fine. I then want to copy the formulae from the the row aboove or below (dependent on certain criteria). This sort of works.

I have is that when the row is copied, the row numbers within the formulae do not change relative to the new row. Eg if I copied down "=A6" one row, the formula still says "=A6", rather than "=A7".

I have tried variations of

Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormulas

I also tried the AutoFill method (but this didn't work at all when I tried it with a whole row)

Previously, I would have selected ranges and then pasted on the active sheet. However, I am trying to re-educate myself in writing macros that do not 'select' ...

Detect Cell Address Of Cell Directly Under Mouse Pointer

Oct 25, 2009

I've a sheet that presents the profitability of sales locations in a geographic layout (similar to Tables in a restaurant), each sales location is a cell, with roughly 1,600 locations presented. Each location is colour coded based on performance / measure, in a basic thermographic way [e.g. dark blue for very poor, solid red for high performance] with users being able to change metrics and re-colour cells accordingly.

The sheet is already information rich, but I'm wanting to detect the cell address directly under the pointer and populate a text box or other cell based on the value in the cell directly below the mouse pointer.

My question is; Is there a simple way of detecting the mouse position on the XL Grid? nb. Want to avoid having to activate cell beneath pointer.

Macro To Detect Cell Colors

Sep 8, 2009

We have a workbook with over 20 worksheets, each sheet with one or more tables in it. Several people use the workbook and we have decided that when someone changes a cell, they should mark the changed cell by filling it with blue using Format Cell. We have then nominated one person at end of each week who will check all the changes made during the week and either approve or reject them. So her task is to find all the blue cells, check them and then take the shading off.

What I would like to do is to create a macro to help her. I would like the macro to automatically identify all the blue cells in the workbook and give her a list of these cells. I wonder if someone could give me direction on a couple of things:

1) The command in the macro that would return whether a cell is shaded blue

2) The way in which I could cycle through all the content of each worksheet. I'm thinking worse case I would have to write instructions to go to each sheet, and then do an outer loop to go through each row, and an inner loop for each column (and the number of active cells varies by worksheet) -

Detect If Cell Contains A Formula Or Constant

Dec 4, 2007

I need an equation that lets me determine whether a cell contains a static constant value (either a string or a number), or an equation that generates a value.

Problem: I have a cell that contains a default equation that generates a default value, depending on a few conditions. The user can overwrite this cell with a constant. In another cell I need to know whether that cell is still the default equation or a new constant value.

I cannot simply test the value of the contents to see if they match my default, because the user may choose to enter that value.

VBA Macro - Copying Entire Row From Selected Cell (within Pre-defined Range)

Jun 21, 2014

I am looking to run two separate macros. I have a project plan and I am looking to be able to select a button whereby on-click, a new row is created within a selected cell. However if the cell clicked is outside of a pre-determined range, then the task is automatically entered at the bottom of the plan. I would like for the copied row to go ABOVE the selected cell and have all of the same formatting as the row below (not the top - as is default in Excel).

The second is going to be very similar but will copy a task category (like a header item) and the first task (row) found below. It will also be copied from below and be inserted above the selected cell.Both macros will clear certain cells, whilst maintaining the contents of others, with formula contained. I.E. Columns C,D,E,H,I,J will be cleared.
