how to declare&initialize a variable as Global in vba?
I have a variable ,
listGroup=Array("aaa","bbb","ccc")
now i am using this variable for 3 different functions. so what i am doing is wrote the same code to 3 functions, so how i can declare&initialize this variable as global and access to all functions.
I need to declare a global variable in Application level not Module level.
I have declare a variable in Module1 and then Module2 with same name then complile it and get success. That means there has two variable with same name in different Module. I think this was not a proper global variable declaration by which I can allow to declare only one variable in all Module, Class every where. I have used code as below -
I am running into the error, "Procedure too large". I know I need to break the range down into Arrays, so how can I hard code the values into an array? I cannot find an example to follow. Ranges: D:E,K:L,O:P,....etc. I know I can break the rows up into an array too, but one thing at a time. Here is an example of the range for D:E.

Dim mdNextTime2 As Double
Dim mdNextTime1 As Double
Dim mdNextTime As Double
Dim myCount As Integer
Dim myC As Integer
Sub
If (myCount Mod 5 = 0) Then
end IF
end Sub
Now, when myCount is multiple of 5 it should go inside that loop.
Instead it goes inside immediately, also when myCount = 0
So I decided to initialize myCount to 1.
But the strange thing is that I don't know how?
If I write:
Dim mdNextTime2 As Double
Dim mdNextTime1 As Double
Dim mdNextTime As Double
Dim myCount As Integer = 1
Dim myC As Integer

The first goes through a directory and opens all the files.. after it opens a given file it goes off into a sub-routine to process the data in that file.
I am trying to create a counter in the first sub-routine and then pass that value into the second sub-routine to tell it to put the values out on the next row down.. so the first time through it puts the values out on row 1, next time it puts them out on row 2, etc.

If I want to set a global variable when I open my workbook which will be used in code on the individual spreadsheets, how would I do this? I want to set the time the workbook is opened to a variable (constant) and then compare that time to current time on each calculation in the worksheets.
I'm using Excel 2000.
I would like have a input box in which a user enter a number and then I would like to be able to use that number in other worksheets within the same workbook. How do I declare the variable for use with other sheets. I know I would first use
Dim intRows As Interger
But now how do I make it global.
explain the difference between declaring a variable as global or as public. Aren't they both available to the entire project including forms?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a smattering of experience within various programming languages, but am still coming to terms with the basics of VBA. I am trying to declare a global variable, assign it a value, then use that global variable. Within 'ThisWorkbook' I have the following...
Public myText As String
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
myText = "Hi There"
End Sub
...and in the Microsoft Worksheet Object Sheet1 (Sheet1) I have...
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
MsgBox myText
End Sub
Now, my understanding of this code is that upon opening the workbook, myText variable will be declared, and then assigned the value "Hi There". Then, once I have clicked anywhere on Sheet1, a message box will appear stating "Hi There". Problem is, the message box is blank. This is all fine, except I want the message box to state "Hi There". What am I doing wrong? Is the variable declared (publically) correctly? Am I assigning the public variable the value correctly?
Am I referencing the public variable correctly in the Worksheet_SelectionChange procedure correctly?
I maked a userform who use global parameters (to let the user decide where write things) and later i need to use this parameter in a module (who is the main program). I try to resolve this problem put this global parameters like global parameters in the module and later in the both sides (in the module and in the useform), but it can't work. How i can resolve that?, i.e., How i can use a global parameter in a userform and the same global parameter in the modulo with the same data?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am working on a workbook which uses a large number of variables. I am trying to keep them as "local" as possible to keep it simple. Some of my variables are local to the subs they're used in. Some are global as they're used by subs in several sheets. A third type of variable is used by several subs all belonging to the same sheet. Is there a way of declaring them so they're known by all subs in that sheet, but not by every sub in the workbook?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a UserForm that runs when my excel project starts that prompts the user for two pieces of data: a username and a password (these are not for logging into the file itself, I need to use them to call web queries later). I want the UserForm to store both of these data in global variables, so that macros that are run in the future can refer to them and read their values. Unfortunately, I am very new to VBA and I cannot figure out what code I need and where exactly I need to put it. Here is my current code, where "authentication" is the name of the UserForm object, and the textboxes I use for entry are named "user" and "pass": In "This Workbook"

In other words form the setup all the values will change on the related worksheet from the setup page.

I know that we should declare all variables at the beginning of a subroutine, in fact I'm told it's good practice to use Option explicit to 'force' variables to be declared, my question is why?
If I don't declare a variable the routine still seems to work OK so what is the downside of not declaring them upfront? Is it just for neatness or common practice or is there another reason?
As a rule which variables should I declare?
Sub checkPO()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Application.EnableEvents = False
Dim Rng As Range, MainSheet As Worksheet, item As Variant ', CurrWidth As Integer, UnitWidth As Integer
Set MainSheet = Sheets("Orders To Chase")
Set Rng = MainSheet.Range("B5", MainSheet.Range("B60000").End(xlUp))
totalqueries = MainSheet.Range("B5", MainSheet.Range("B60000").End(xlUp)).Cells.Count
UnitWidth = 282 / totalqueries
With progbar '\displays the please wait box
.Show False
.prog.Width = 0 '\ updates progress bar
.Repaint
End With
If I declare the variable my progress bar goes off screen. remove it and its back to within its box.
I haven't declared any of these variables either. Does this matter?
POnum = .Range("G5").Value
Supplier = .Range("A5").Value
Req = .Range("B5").Value
Ordered = .Range("E5").Value
what does the symbol # means in VBA? (but I couldn't put the # in the subject of my message )
I'm trying to understand someone's code... at some point he wrote:
sum_LU_Area = 0#
I thought that the # was used to declare a constant but I'm not too sure because in his code earlier he declared
Public sum_LU_Area As Double
Beside, sum_LU_Area is calculated somewhere further in the program.
I figured out how to populate the ComboBox, but I have to manually step through the code to do it. How do I get it to populate the values when the spreadsheet is opened?
Then, what I want to do is have the cell formula depend on one of two selections in the ComboBox.
Here's my code for the box.
I have the following in a standard module:
Public Sub Timesht()
userform1.Show
End Sub
And this in my UserForm module:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
'//Populate ComboBox1
Sheet1.Range("K5", Sheet1.Range("K65536").End(xlUp)).Name = "CODE"
userform1.ComboBox1.RowSource = "DATA BASE!CODE"
End Sub
I have a named range as "CODE" in my DATA BASE!, sheet1.
I keep getting an error: " 380: Could not set the RowSource property. Invalid property value."
when I type in UserForm1 and arrow down. in turns into lowercase letters.
While reading the book "VBA and Macros for Excel", I can not understand the following

Afterwards I want from cell b50 to copy int the value from cell a1 and copying the next value from the array (cell a2) into cell b51 and so on until cell b200.
I want to do it by creating an array and not just by usual Excel formulas.

View 11 Replies View RelatedI have two userform combo boxes, the second follows up on the results of the first.
The second Combo Box looks for incomplete fields and provides them in a drop box. If the data the second Combo Box is looking at (This is different data than the first Combo Box is looking at.) is complete it updates the field, if not then it adds it to the drop down list.
My problem is this, if it finds everything updated and nothing is added to the drop-down list, how do I exit? I just want a complete break where all programming ends.
