once bTest is declared as a Boolean, it becomes equal to FALSE (I checked this after much head scratching). How does one assign a value to a boolean variable only after you make your test.
Sub foo()
Dim bTest As Boolean

I have a timecard spreadsheet which im working on, each employee is represented by a single worksheet in the workbook, and the worksheet is named after the employees name. New employees are added by filling in a form which dynamically creates the timecard based on a template. Im trying to impliment a 'Fire Employee' button which sits on each employees sheet and can be clicked to set an employees working status to false by changing a boolean variable called 'fired' to true.
Ive been looking around the forum but I cant figure out if i should be using public variables or where exactly i should be placing them, so that each employees 'fired' status is set to false when the worksheet is first created, but can be set to true when the 'Fire Employee' button is clicked, this must only set true for that specific employee, and not all employees. If your wondering why i need this, the employees work status will be used on other forms to toggle views etc so thats why a boolean approach is best (at least i think it is if its not to difficult to do)
I have minimal excel knowledge, but enough to get by. I have 2 years in C++ programming.
Here's what I'm trying to do:
I'm trying to create a workbook to keep track of flags we send out, and receive back. We have a lot going and coming, so I figured the best way to do this would be to break down each region on different sheets. But I need to create a check box that says something like, "Yes/No" or "Here/Gone" or something like that. THEN, I need to take that information, and put it on the front sheet of the workbook so I know how many we have in/out total. Does this make sense? I know how I would program this in C++, but excel is a bit different.
I need help creating a code that does the following:
I want a Boolean variable (TheTD) to be True when and only when the value in cell A1 is "TwoOnly". Once it isn't then I want the Boolean to be immediately False. Once cell A1 is "TwoOnly" I want TheTD to be true immediately as well.
I am using a userform and the textbox1_Change macro can change the value of cell A1 while typing. So in other words The Boolean can be changed from True to False multiple times depending on what I type in textbox1.
I would like to construct in VBA "n choose r" Boolean arrays of length n which will give all possible combinations of these variables as you scroll through the arrays.
Typical values of n and r would be 40 and 5 respectively and I'm looking to get the fastest possible output on these 660,000 or so arrays.
I have been playing around with various "for, to" statements but haven't managed to turn out anything meaningful thus far.

I have an Excel Macro that will capture inputted customer/vehicle data from an input screen, at the end, based on questions answered, i need to place that data on 1 of 4 sheets in my excel document.
The questions are:
Is this a Nationwide claim? (Y.N) (boolean = nw)
Is the vehicle here? (Y/N) (boolean = vh)
So here's what i got
if NW = true and VH = True then place data on "sheet1"
if NW = true and VH = False then place data on "Sheet2"
if NW = False and VH = true then place data on "sheet 3"
if NW = false and VH = False then place data on "sheet4"
I can't think of how to write this IF statement for this to happen. can't get the logic going.
OR IS THERE A BETTER WAY?? i'm sure there is.
I've got a worksheet with five columns of data. The headings run from a1:e1
The number of rows can be anything up to 200,000 rows (I'm using Excel 2007).....
I'm trying to figure out how to reorganize data based on boolean values in two different columns. My goal is to write something in VBA that will look to see if the boolean in the first cloumn is true then procede to check if the boolean in the next column, same row is true. If that is the case, it will take several values from the row and move them to another worksheet. If the boolean in the first column is true, but the second column is not, it will look down the rows of the second column until it finds true then move several values from rows it has passed through. Here is an example of the sample data I will be dealing with.
Date Time Duration Boolean1 Boolean2
6/22/200715:0032TRUETRUE
6/22/200718:0058TRUEFALSE
6/22/200719:0060FALSEFALSE
6/22/200720:0060FALSEFALSE
6/22/200721:0060FALSEFALSE
6/22/200722:0060FALSEFALSE
6/22/200723:001 FALSETRUE
Based on the example data my goal is to move the data in a new worksheet that would look something like this
Date Start End Duration
6/22/2007 15:28 16:00 32
6/22/2007 18:02 23:01 299
This macro adds a comment to a cell and some text from an input box. I store the last value entered in the input box via the registry, it is recalled as the default input box value. How do I capture the cancel property (Boolean, true or false?) so the ActiveCell.Value remains and comment is not added? When a user selects Cancel/X the macro deletes the value in the cell and add's a comment. This overwrites existing data with "" (nothing).

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?
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.
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?

I am starting to write a macro and first thing i Need to define is all the columns that I need in my report. I started out by defining an array and this is what I have so far.
I need that every time I run this macro it should vlookup the data from cleantxt files that are saved in my c:autofile ReportsFC Banded Summary and essentially create separate excel files for different buyer names and save those sheets to my C:Banded Summaries with the name as Bandedsummary(todays Date)_BuyerName
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.
This is what I have so far:
Function IsInArray(stringToBeFound As String, arr As Variant) As Boolean
IsInArray = (UBound(Filter(arr, stringToBeFound)) > -1)

Defining Cell Name when Dynamic?. Here is whare I am.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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.
I tried to run this code and encountered an error telling me that N should be an object.
N has to be a variable number representing the amount of sheets in the workbook -2.
Does anyone know how this is written?
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.
I'm trying to make ranges in a SumProduct formula dynamic, but getting errors #N/A. I think this is because the top two rows are headers, throwing off the range count.
Q. How do I adjust the range definition to compensate., e.g.
Range =Offset(Sheet1!$D$3,0,0,COUNT(Sheet1!$D:$D),1) where column D is numeric, and
Range = Offset(Sheet1!$T$3,0,0,Match("*",Sheet1!$T:$T,-1),1) where column T is text?
I had assumed that the offset value 3 would do this, but I suspect the functions count and match are not doing so.
