Creating Named Ranges Using A Loop?

Nov 2, 2011

i am trying to write a macro to loop through a column of data, creating a named range each time it encounters a certain string. so, it inititially finds the first instance of the string, then finds the next instance, offsets one row back and then names that as the first named range. how do i get it to actually loop through the column until the end of the data?

I can get the first range named but can't figure how to get a loop into my macro to repaeat the process.

Code:
Sub x()
Dim rngTemp As Range
Dim rngFind As Range
Dim rngFirst As Range
Dim rngLast As Range
Dim nom As Range
Dim strFirstAddress As String

Loop Defining Named Ranges

Nov 23, 2009

I'm trying to define some ranges with a loop but being a newbie at VBA I'm finding it difficult to solve the error in the code.
First, as the data area is uncertain (variation in the number of rows and columns) i look to the end of the entire data area. Then i want to define intervals of 250 rows with a 30 row difference between each of them. Here is my

Creating Cascading Data Validation Lists / Comboboxes Without Named Ranges?

Jul 28, 2014

Is there a way to add cascading lists (from data validation or form/activex controls) to my excel spreadsheet WITHOUT using named ranges? Maybe structured references?

I need to avoid the named ranges because it will cause my workbook to have duplicate named range titles which I cannot avoid.

As a general example my issue arises because I have something like this where the titles are the same but they map to slightly different data. These also have to be cascading because the titles align to another list which I do not show in the example. I also considered using pivot tables, but the issue there is that the data validation lists repeat in the same worksheet. So I would have 3 cascading lists in row1 dependent on each other, but the same 3 lists in row2 dependent on row2 but not the previous row.

Creating Multiple Named Ranges X Rows High X Columns Wide

Mar 13, 2012

I need to create hundreds of named ranges going down a single sheet.

The name of the first range is in cell a1 and is 13 columns wide and 7 columns high (a1:m7)

The next name is in a8 and the range is a8:m14 and so fourth

If it's easier on a separate sheet I can have a list of names I want in column A and then the cells they refer to in column B.

E.g.

A B

Range1 Sheet1!A1:M7
Range2 Sheet1!A8:M14
Range3 Sheet1!A15:M21

Define Only 2 Named Ranges From List Of Named Ranges

Apr 28, 2014

I have written this macro to convert into a csv file to run for all defined named ranges in the activesheet. It run jst perfect when I hit SAVE button and it creates that many different CSV files for each named range.

However I am trying to use same macro in the another file and the problem I am facing is there a lot more named ranges and I want to run the macro for only selected NAMED RANGE. In this case 2 Named Range / 24 Named range.

What part of code do I need to change and to what to make it work for just 2 named ranges ?

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.

Loop Through Cells And Ranges Reverse Order With Backwards Loop

Aug 30, 2006

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.

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:

MyTimer = Timer

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"?

Creating Named Range?

Aug 19, 2014

I'm trying to create 3 different named ranges which are of alternate cells in columns. Each column runs from row 3 to row 106 and each named range covers 5 columns. Therefore each named range needs to contain 260 cells (52 cells per column x 5 columns).

Apart from the fact that you can't deselect a sell by Ctrl+Right Clicking on it, making a selection of the relevant cells is proving impossible.

For example I carefully selected all 260 cells for my 1st named range and entered a name. However when I then go into Name Manager I see that loads of cells haven't been selected at all and instead some cells in some columns have been but with huge gaps between them. If I try to then add cells my Ctrl+Clicking on them I find that I can add some but then one of two things will happen. I'll either click on one cell, the same cell every time, that deselects everything and I have to start all over again or when I try to save the new range I get a message saying the formula is wrong.

I've also tried typing in the names of the cells manually but the same thing happens. Annoyingly I've manually created a formula with all the cells I need in Notepad but even though the option to Paste is there, it won't let me paste into the field!

Is there a limit to the number of cells you can have in a named range?

Is there way of editing the name range accurately?

Is there a better, easier way of selecting all the cells for a named range?

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”.

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.

Countifs With Named Ranges?

Jul 19, 2012

I have some named ranges and am trying to do a "Countifs" based off the named ranges. But Excel is giving me obvious incorrect data (my fault, not Excel's). I can't really post a pic of the issue, hopefully it's an obvious error on my part.

For instance

SpecialPart is a named range consisting of part numbers that I want to count seperately from all others.

PartNumber is a named range of all parts shipped for a period.

I used countifs becuase I am also checking by month. The month part works fine because I use it in other countifs. It's just this one that isn't working for me.

My formula looks like this;

=Countifs(Pmonth,Month(A3),PartNumber,SpecialPart)

As mentioned, the month part of the formula works in other calculations, but the Part/SpecialPart calculation keeps returning a "1" even though there are multiple instances of a match for each month. A manual count of January showed about 100 lines that should have been counted.

SUMIFS With Named Ranges

Sep 12, 2012

I'm trying to learn more about the SUMIFS and COUNTIFS functions and am practicing with some hypothetical data. I have data about the number of gallons of paint sold in 4 regions.

In my hypothetical situation, I need to find out the number of gallons sold in the Northeast region during the month of August.

I have named ranges for most categories: "Date," "Gallons_Sold," "PaintColors," and "Region."

I am able to get a correct response if I use

=SUMIFS(Gallons_Sold,Region,"NE",Date,"August 21")

But it is only info. for a single date. I need to get a total for the entire month of August.

=SUMIFS(Gallons_Sold,Region,"NE",Date,"August") returns zero. How do I get SUMIFS to evaluate "Date" for all August dates?

Named Ranges And Charting

Dec 5, 2012

I am having an issue with dynamic charting using named ranges in excel. I quite often create dynamic charts using IF and OFFSET formulas to check conditions in order to create charts of data based on user inputs.

The issue I am having is with linking multiple tables of data in a single named range. In order to make this spreadsheet easy to maintain I am trying to take 3 separate databases and link the spreadsheets through named ranges. The formula I have written is as follows:

=VLOOKUP(VALUE(LEFT(OFFSET(Processed!$B$1,1,0,COUNT(Processed!$C:$C),1),6)),Raw!$F:$O,10,FALSE)

For context this is;

=VLOOKUP(VALUE(LEFT(OFFSET("Serial number I am referencing",1,0,"Qty of rows containing data",1),6)),"Value I want to return from separate table",10,FALSE)

[The formatting of the serial number between the two sheets is slightly different but they share the first 6 digits (hence the wrapped VALUE and LEFT formulas).]

This formula is working perfectly except that it doesn't store the entire data table in a single cell, it only returns a single value. If I enter the formula into a cell and drag it down it returns all the information correctly, however if I create a named range using the formula and try to chart it only the first value returned is charted.

Any way to modify the formula to store the entire data array in the single cell value so it will chart when used as a named range?
