VBA To Delete External Named Ranges

May 1, 2012

I am attempting to delete external named ranges after a sheet is copied out of a source workbook (the template). I have tried both the following codes, but neither one does the trick. The code is in ThisWorkbook (not a module), and I have tried it with the code both in the template and the new doc. The new doc is where I want the names to be deleted (there are no #REF names in the template).

Deletes named ranges based on the reference to the source doc:

Code:

Sub DelRanges()
Dim nName As Name

For Each nName In Names
If InStr(1, nName.RefersTo, "='T:Fin_") > 0 Then
nName.Delete
End If
Next nName
End Sub

Deletes named ranges based on a #REF in the value of the range (this is my preferred method):

Code:

Sub DeadRanges()
Dim nName As Name

For Each nName In Names
If InStr(1, nName.Value, "#REF") Then
nName.Delete
End If
Next nName
End Sub

Delete Named Ranges

Aug 26, 2008

I have a number of crazy defined names in my spreadsheet (1,746 to be exact). Not sure where they all came from, but I need them gone gone gone. Some of them start with squares at the front of the name and most of them refer to =#ref! or similar. I've seen a number of vba solutions to this, but none of them seem to work for me - I get "400" errors or run time errors. For reference, I'm hitting Alt F11, pasting the whole sub in, saving, then running.

Delete Hidden Named Ranges

Oct 6, 2007

I'm trying to delete all the Named Ranges in my excel document, but it appears there are some hidden ranges, and I can't delete them! How do you delete a range that is hidden? If I try to delete it with my code it says "That name is not valid." So I created a message box to see what the name of the range is.....and it's like 30 letters long! It starts like this..."={#N/A,#N/A, TRUE "Summary....." I woud like to attach my Excel file but it's too large. Below is my code

Sub Remove_Hidden_Names()
' Dimension variables.
Dim xName As Variant
' Loop once for each name in the workbook.
For Each xName In ActiveWorkbook.Names
If xName.Visible = True Then
xName.Delete
Else
MsgBox (xName)
xName.Delete
End If
Next xName
End Sub

Delete Rows Without Named Ranges Failing

Apr 3, 2008

I have a dynamic named range in my worksheet:

Range Name = AssignDt
RefersTo: =OFFSET('Raw Data'!$W$2,0,0, COUNTA('Raw Data'!$A:$A)-1,1)

I perform a routine in VBA which deletes unwanted rows of data from my worksheet. The problem occurs if row 2 happens to be one of those rows. It not only deletes Row 2, but it also deletes my Named Range.

Excel 2003 :: VB Code To Delete ALL Named Ranges

Mar 22, 2012

I have a spreadsheet, but it came from another file using the detach sheet method. It has therefore taken with it, all the named ranges that are now superfluous.

It seems a bit long-winded to delete these named ranges one by one manually. Would there be an easy to understand script that would delete them all, so I can start with a "clean sheet".

I'm using Excel 2003.

Combine Two Named Ranges Into 3rd Named Range

Mar 14, 2013

Merge two columns into one list in excel

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.

Calling Named Range From External Workbook

Jun 12, 2009

I want to copy a named range from an external workbook. Currently I am using some VBA copied from a recorded macro that first opend the 2nd workbook and then selects the named range, changes back to the original workbook and drops the copied range into the active workbook.

I would like to find a way to get around having to open the reference workbook, and instead simply point to the proper workbook name and named range.

Using Named Ranges In A UDF

Sep 15, 2014

I am trying to make a UDF that searches for a header, grabs everything under the header, and pulls it somewhere else. My UDF has three parameters:

1) Output_Range: the named range where the parameters will be pulled to
2) Header: the header to search for in order to copy the data underneath it
3) WorkbookName: the name of the workbook to search in

It looks like this:

VB:
Function LoadParameters(Output_Range As Range, Header, WorkbookName As String)
MyTimer = Timer
'Defining the variables.
Dim HeaderCell, HeaderCellEnd, HeaderRange, Output_Range

Named Ranges From VBA

Dec 30, 2008

I have some named ranges that refer to 5 pieces of data organized into a row. For example, the name MyNamedRange might refer to $C$5:$C$10.

I am trying to loop through each column and get the values in MyNamedRange, then change corresponding values in a different named range. However, when I try to use Offset to access the subsequent columns of MyNamedRange, it doesn't work. It only gets the value of the first column right, the rest return <EMPTY>.

Using Named Ranges.

Jul 17, 2006

How do I go about using named ranges instead of cell names(ie A4:A9)

Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
Dim lngRow As Long
Dim intIndex As Integer
UserForm1.ComboBox1.Clear 'Clear combobox
lngRow = 2 Do While Sheet1.Range("a" & lngRow).Value <> ""
For intIndex = 0 To UserForm1.ComboBox1.ListCount - 1
If UserForm1.ComboBox1.List(intIndex) = Sheet1.Range("a" & lngRow).Value
Then
Goto NextRow
End If
Next intIndex
UserForm1.ComboBox1.AddItem Sheet1.Range("a" & lngRow).Value
NextRow:
lngRow = lngRow + 1
Loop
End Sub

I wanted to change "a" to the defined range "search"?

Using Named Ranges Across Different Options?

Jan 28, 2014

At the moment I have to click in the cell and then look at the cells used and look across to the title of the rows.

So for example, performance = D3*D4*D5*D6

I would like, performance = vehicles*availabliity*utilisation*TKM.

That is easy if I have just 1 option. But what if I have 3 options? Naming each cell would be a way to do it but pretty laborious, is there a 'smart' way to use named ranges here?

Duplicating Named Ranges

Feb 12, 2010

I'm creating a KPI spreadsheet which utilizes named ranges to allow for Dynamic charting. I've created the first data input sheet for one of the 10 areas being KPIed. The sheet has 60 named ranges in it.

The goal is to duplicate the existing sheet (Area 1A) 10 times and adjust the named ranges and formulas within the named ranges according to the sheet names.

Is there a way to accomplish this without having to manually recreate or edit every named range for each new sheet?

SumIF Using Named Ranges

Jun 16, 2014

I want a sumIF function (based on three criteria) to fill the values of cells in a column so long as there are values in the cells in the column before that one. I was working with trying a loop, but have been shown a faster way is using the With function.

There are four named ranges that all exist on a separate sheet in the file: Crude, Location, Year and Volume. Based on the first three columns of the file I wish to have an output for the sum of volume based on crude, location and year.

Right now, my output simply returns the total sum of the "volume" range in each cell in the output column.

For example, if total sum of values in the volume column is 100 then my output column currently looks like:

100
100
100
100
etc...

Here is my code including the named ranges:

Working With Named Ranges

Jun 20, 2014

I created a simply macro that will adjust the headings of a group of cells as follows.

But if I add a row/column to the sheet, it will then of course attempt to place the headings in the wrong cells.

I have now given that group of cells/range a Name of "AR_Buckets". But I'm not certain how to modify the macro to ensure it always places the information in the correct place.

Vlookup With Named Ranges

Jan 14, 2009

I am having problems getting the code below to follow my intentions. I have 2 files. I have a temporary file that holds all the data that I need. I have a destination file that needs to have data copied into it. In the temp file, I have data for several dates and product types. What I intend to do is to do a vlookup in VBA to look for the date and the product type in the temp file and copy the appropriate data to the destination file. I have numerous named ranges both in my temp file and my destination file. For the code below, I wanted to make a loop to find the date in the temp file that is listed in the destination file. Once this is done, I wanted to find the product type in the temp file that is listed in the destination file. If both conditions exist, then copy a certain range from the temp file to the destination file. My intention is evident in the code, but I don’t think that I am putting in the correct “code format”.

Union Named Ranges

Unfortunately the big range does not appear on the list of named range so I switched to VBA to try and lick this but really I was hoping a non-VBA solution exists. Exploring possible VBA solutions, here is what I have so far:

Create A Set Of Named Ranges

Jul 10, 2009

I'm trying to make my worksheet generate a bunch of named ranges whenever it is activated. However, I'm getting a "Not a valid name" error on the line in red. The value of r is a string, so I really don't see what the issue is. Another time, I got a object defined error, but I think I've declared everyhing too. That line is very similar to the line above, and tends to work once (the first time around the loop). After that, I get the errors I mentioned.

Mirroring Named Ranges

Aug 25, 2009

The worksheet contains 20 different datasets which are divided into separate 30 x 10 grids, all of which help comprise a larger 300 x 20 grid. I have defined each smaller grid/dataset as its own named range. Originally the entire dataset started in A1, but I am shifting it dataset down by 40 lines to create space to work at the top of my workbook.

I am wanting to create a data validation list in A1, then have cells A3:J32 populate with the named range I select in A1. However I also want this populated dataset at the top of the sheet to be a mirror -- not a copy.

Therefore once I have the data in my range available A3:J32, anything I manipulate would be mirrored in the original range in the lower portion of the workbook.

Import Named Ranges

I am importing an external Sheet into my Excel workbook but it only imports the data not the named ranges. I need the named ranges to be imported and overwrite any existing range of same name.

Example:

In existing workbook Sheet I have a named range, ABC which is A1:E10 - in the Sheet I am importing the ABC range is A1:E12. So when I have done import I want named range ABC in my workbook to become A1:E12 (as per external Sheet).

This is the code that import data (but not named ranges)
