Code: Defining Variables

Sep 15, 2008

I'm trying to develop a work spreadsheet template that is to be summarised every fortnight. Our fortnights here go Thurs-Thurs. So I figured I would start with a base date (thurs - Sept 4th) and then have the spreadsheet display the true fortnight ending upon loading. Ultimately this fortnight ending will be used to copy and paste the template information into a summary spreadsheet but for now I am trying to get this intial part working. It's linked to a command button and my attempt at code is below:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim Base As Date
Dim Now As Date
Dim Delta As Integer
Dim No_of_Fortnights!
Dim Rounded As Integer
Dim Fract!
Dim Fort_week_end As Date

(Note the following 8 lines are not the problem, they just open the main sheet. The problem is the eights lines starting with the word 'set')

Sheets("Technical Inquiry Form").Activate
Sheets("Technical Inquiry Form").Range("b3").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=TODAY()"
Sheets("Technical Inquiry Form").Range("b3").Select
Selection.Copy
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
Sheets("Technical Inquiry Form").Activate

Defining Rows As Variables

May 25, 2006

What the code does is that it runs in a Master workbook, and searches for XLS files in a defined folder. It opens a file, count, closes the workbook and takes the tallied number of sheets and places it in the master file, column A being File Names and column B as Number of sheets. What I need is for the code to take the file name from column A, run it and then place sheet counts in Column B and then move down the columns until all the counting is done. Currently I am only able to define one row using the range function and i'm at a loss.

'Get file names and enter into Master
Public Sub ShowFolderList()
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet
ChDrive "C"
ChDir "C:Documents and SettingsTest Folder"
outrow = 2
Filess = Dir("*.xls")
While Not Filess = ""
Cells(outrow, 1).Value = Filess
outrow = outrow + 1
Filess = Dir()
Wend.......................

Defining Average Range With Variables?

Apr 5, 2012

It's just meant to work through a long list of data blocks defined by column 8 changing. At that point I want to calculate the average of the first 20 entries in columns 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 in that particular block.

I can achieve the sort and calculate the block start rows OK, just can't get the average definition right.

Defining Variables In Separate Module

Jun 18, 2008

I started plugging away at VB a little over a month a go and i feel i've learnt alot but can see just how limited my knowledge is. how to define all my variables in one module that then will feed into the code on other modules and forms in the workbook where required. For example, my spreadsheet has approx 30 different variables that are called upon by a variety of subs. How do i define all these in one place and then just call on the relevant ones when required rather then having to redefine them for every new sub.

Defining A Range With Variables And Cells Function

Aug 25, 2009

I am trying to make the "A4:A" portion of this line of code generic so it can work in multiple different files. I have defined a variable FirstGridRow that will take care of the '4' but I need to find a way to splice it all together. Essentially I am stuck trying to tack on the ":A". The first piece shows where I am coming from and the second is where I am trying to go to.

Defining Variables Using Variables

Apr 27, 2006

I'm trying to loop through a range in excel from access, checking where the titles (in Excel row 1) match with the fields (in a recordset in Access that is passed to the function) - and where they do, I want to dimension a variable to hold the column number - I'm not sure it's possible, but I'd be interested to know either way. The line I'm asking about is at the bottom of the code - the rest of the code is just to give context...

Sub ImportGeneric(rsImported As ADODB.Recordset, rsConfirmed As ADODB.Recordset)
Dim fd As FileDialog
Dim xl As New Excel.Application
Dim wb As Excel.Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim iFilePicked As Integer
Dim strFilePath As String
fd.Filters.clear
fd.Filters.Add "Excel files", "*.xls"
fd.ButtonName = "Select"
iFilePicked = fd.Show
If iFilePicked = -1 Then
strFilePath = fd.SelectedItems(1)
Else ..................

Passing Variables And Values Between Sheet Code And Module Code

May 13, 2009

I have some buttons in different sheets in an excel file, each button has its own code, that is the reason I can not move the code related to each object to another location (sheet or module).

And I have one piece of code in Module1 (Auto_load) in order to execute automatically this routine every time file is opened. Inside "auto_load" routine I initialize some values of some check buttons,options buttons and positions of some objects in diferent sheets, but I can not pass the value of variables between Module and Sheet's code even when I declare as public variables and/or function.

I have the following structure: ...

Storing Variables As Arrays - Code

Jun 29, 2007

I have the following code for a user-defined function:

Function SeriesSum2(A, B, x, C, D, y, z, Num)

Summation = 0

For i = 1 To Num

Summation = Summation + (((A - B) * (((0.01 * B / (A - B)) _
^ (1 / (y - 1))) ^ i) + B - x) / ((1 + x) ^ i))

Next i

Product = 1

For i = 1 To Num

Product = Product * (1 + ((C - D) * (((0.01 * D / (C - D)) _
^ (1 / (z - 1))) ^ i) + D))

Next i

SeriesSum2 = WorksheetFunction.SumProduct(Summation, Product)

End Function

To simplify, suppose Num = 3, and the three terms of Summation are {3, 5, 9}. Call these S1, S2, S3. Further, suppose the first three terms of Product are {1, 4, 12}. Call these P1, P2, P3.

My desired result of the function is 3*1 + 5*4 + 9*12 = 131. Instead, I'm getting 3*12+5*12+9*12 = 204. That is, the function is returning S1*P3+S2*P3+S3*P3, while I want S1*P1+S2*P2+S3*P3.

Can anyone instruct me as to what I need to do to get my desired result? I'm guessing it has something to do with storing Product as an array, but I'm a very novice VB'er, so I'm not sure.

Of course, if there are any other glaring errors in my code,

Excel 2010 :: Condensing VBA Code - Using Dynamic Variables?

Jul 17, 2012

I have some VBA that dumps various sheets data into an SQL Database.

Part of that requires me to sanitize all of the fields before they make it to the DB, (at least to prevent the code from breaking itself w/ errant ' characters.

right now my code is as follows

Code:
If InStr(aa, "'") > 0 Then
aa = Replace(aa, "'", "''")
End If
If InStr(bb, "'") > 0 Then
bb = Replace(bb, "'", "''")

[Code] ......

I was hoping to condense it to something like the following, however it is not working how I hoped / want it to. .. I had found somewhere out there that this Eval() function possibly could be used to 'reference' dynamic variables, however it does not appear to work at all anymore, and even then it may only have worked to 'read' and not 'write' to the variable. (Excel 2010, on Windows 7 64-bit).

Code:
itemsToSanitize = "aa,bb,cc,dd,ee,ff,gg,hh,ii,jj,kk,ll,mm,nn,oo,pp,qq,rr,ss,tt,uu,vv,ww,xx,yy,zz,aaa,bbb,ccc,ddd,eee,fff,ggg,hhh"
ITSArray = Split(itemsToSanitize, ",")

For Each thing In ITSArray
If InStr(Eval(thing), "'") > 0 Then
Eval(thing) = Replace(Eval(thing), "'", "''")
End If

Code To Generate Data Table Based On Variables

Aug 26, 2008

I was trying to use the VBA code to generate a data table:

Private Sub createDataTable(WS As Worksheet, initialRow As Integer, numCol As Integer, numRows As Integer)
Dim initialCell As Range 'specify the upper left cell
Dim RefCell As Range 'the reference cell on the caculator sheet

'activate source sheet
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Calculator").Activate
Set RefCell = ActiveSheet.Cells(2, 3)
WS.Activate
Set initialCell = ActiveSheet.Cells(initialRow, 1)
initialCell.offset(numRows, numCol).Select
Selection.Table ColumnInput:=RefCell
'the calculation should be automatic, if not, then calculate
WS.Calculate
End Sub

and it kept giving me an input celll not valid error on this line: Selection.Table ColumnInput:=RefCell the thing is, I have defined RefCell as a range object, so it should be OK rite?

Add AVERAGE Formulas To Cells Using Variables In Macro Code

Apr 15, 2008

I am trying to have the formula =( SUMIF(S2:S125,">0",S2:S125))/(COUNTIF(S2:S125,">0")) Put into cells through vba. What I did to get the formula is typed it into an excel cell to find the average of a group of cells that do contain blank cells. The formula brought out the proper results. So all I did is put the formula into vba and changed the appropriate parts. The range will not be the same of course, but there is what I have.

ActiveCell.Formula = "=(SUMIF(" & ActiveCell.Offset(orow + 2, 0).Address & ":" & ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 0).Address & ","">0""" & "," & ActiveCell.Offset(orow + 2, 0).Address & ":" & ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 0).Address & "))/(COUNTIF(" & ActiveCell.Offset(orow + 2, 0).Address & ":" & ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 0).Address & ","">0""" & "))"

When I show a msgbox for ActiveCell.Formula (Msgbox activecell.formula), it shows me the formula as above - =(SUMIF(S2:S125,">0",S2:S125))/(COUNTIF(S2:S125,">0")) Except instead of the s:ranges, it shows $L2:$L125 (which is correct). The quotes do show up around the criteria in both the sumif and countif. I keep receiving an error. I put a msgbox err.description & ", " err.number dialog in. The error comes up as ", 0" (no quotes).

Add Vlookup, With Variables, To Cell To Reference Another Workbook Via Macro Code

May 21, 2008

I am trying to use VB to vlookup between to workbooks
1. Make active workbook WBK1
2. Make workbook being open WBK2
3. Copy and Paste between WBK1 and WBK2
4. Have a vlookup in WBK1 and bring in the values from WBK2
5. Close WKB2
6. Copy, Paste, and transpose values in wkb1 within wkb1

The script works fine until it reaches the vlookup step. I have used the vlookup by itself without the copy and paste code successfully but when I combine the two it provides me with the error 9. Subscript out of range.

Defining Name Over 255 Characters?

Feb 17, 2014

I'm trying to make a chart viewer on the first sheet of my spreadsheet and am using this website as a guideline, [URL] However instead of the 3 charts in the example, I have 12 which makes my formula for defining a name substantially longer.

By moving my charts to the same sheet and getting rid of the INDIRECT formulas, I shortened my formula to 291 characters which is too long as the limit is 255.

=IF($G$9="Sodium",$N$34,IF($G$9="Manganese",$N$35,IF($G$9="Iron",$N$36,IF($G$9="Nitrate Nitrite",$N$37,IF($G$9="Nitrite",$N$38,IF($G$9="Nitrate",$N$39,IF($G$9="PH",$N$40,
IF($G$9="Conductivity",$N$41,IF($G$9="Turbidity",$N$42,IF($G$9="Fluoride",$N$43,IF($G$9="Selenium",$N$44,$N$45)))))))))))

Is there any way to make my formula shorter? Or to reference a cell where I place the formula?

Defining A Minimum Value

Oct 7, 2008

If Average GMV (Cell A1) is less than 75% of Average BP (Cell B1), use Average GMV, however the Average GMV or Average BP can't be less than $600 million. Multiply the result by .01*1/3. Below are two equations I've created, however each of them only solves one part of the problem.

=IF(A1<0.75*B1,A1*0.01*1/3,B1*0.01*1/3)

=IF(B1<600000000,(600000000)*0.01*1/3,B1*0.01*1/3)

Essentially Average BP would be used, unless Average BP was something like $900,000,000 and Average GMV was around $650,000,000. At this point Average GMV is 72% of Average BP and above the $600,000,000 minimum.

Defining Names

Jun 16, 2009

Knowing Excel adapts its formulas upon inserting a row (i.e. a sum formula will automatically include a new row inserted in the middle of its range). Is it possible to do this with a named range. I have a pivot table that serves as a table for a vlookup, but the table sometimes changes month to month with extra accounts. I need to be able to keep the formula even though the table changes, so I figured a named range would help me out but it still doesn't accomplish what I need it to do. So basically, is there a way to make the Named Range, say AGroup (A1:C5) extend to (A1:C7) if 2 new rows are added in?

This is going to be the bones of it then I have to figure out how to vlookup data for all the columns and do sumifs and format it.

Defining A Variable As New Collection

Dec 7, 2008

I have a piece of code I am using to important data from a text file. The code works fine but I am having a hard time understanding how defining a Variable "As New Collection" works. I have tried to research on numerous websites dedicated to excel but had no luck finding any further information.

I have executed the code line-by-line over-and-over and believe what the "new collection" does is it creates some type of external database that is hidden within excel (that's just my guess). I have attached a sample file and a text file with dummy data if needed to see how the code is working.

Defining 1 Of 3 Possible Print Areas

Dec 5, 2009

I've got a spreadsheet that could have 1 of 3 possible print ranges:
PR1 = B2:K67
PR2 = B2:K132
PR3 = B2:K197

If there is a value greater than "0" in Cell B68, the print area would be PR2, but if there is a value greater than "0" in Cell B133, the print area would be PR3, otherwise it would be PR1.

These print ranges are such that the page break would would be below B67 and B132, but I'm concerned that I may need to set these page breaks in the Macro.

I'm not sure how to use the IF, THEN, ELSE, in the Macro to test the value of the cell and then set the print area.
