Loop Through And Name Each Cell Iteratively?

May 11, 2014

I am trying to find the function or code in order to loop through and name each cell in a range iteratively.

For Example,

Cells A1,A2,A3,A4 would need to be renamed

so in psuedo code

name cell a1 ag.1
name cell a2 ag.2
name cell a3 ag.3
name cell a4 ag.4

Most of the naming is done in string literals which I am not sure how to get passed using a loop.

Iteratively Delete Rows From A Spreadsheet

Apr 13, 2009

I have a very large spreadsheet (about 50,000 rows, and to CM of columns) with blocks of data 20 rows high (rows 1-20 are from Building A, rows 21-40 are from Building B, etc). However, not every row in each block of 20 has information in it - some are just placeholders. For example, some blocks may have rows 1-18 filled with data while other blocks may have only 1-6 filled with data. I am interested in programming a macro that would delete the placeholder rows out of the spreadsheet based on a certain criteria. This would probably halve the size of my spreadsheet.

In faux-
For row i
i = 1 to 50,000
If Column B = #NA
Delete row i

Is this something that can be done with a macro, or do I need to go through all of these rows by hand? Obviously, I haven't programmed macros before (I've taken code and run it), but I've programmed in other languages (Java, C#). Could someone point me in the right direction?

Conditional SumProduct To Evaluate Iteratively

Sep 18, 2009

I have two tables, one summary sheet which contains a list of 30 projects. The second sheet has the projects broken down by task and status ("on time" or "late"), so it has three columns (project, task and status). I am trying to add up the number of projects within each task that are either "on time" or "late" and put these in two columns, so that the sum of each together will always equal 30.

The trouble is that any given task can appear multiple times for a project, and if one instance of that task is late, I want to count the whole project late for that task. Here is a table of what I am trying to do:

Project Task Status
A1 MU On time
A1 MU Late
A1 FA On time
B2 FA On time
B2 MU On time
B2 MU On time

The desired result of this scenario is that under task "MU" I would show a count of 1 projects on time (B2), and one that is late (A1). For task "FA" I would show a count of 2 projects "on time" (A1 and B2) and none for "late"

I think that an array formula is needed where it assigns a 1 to a project and task that is on time, and a 0 if it is not, and then multiplies these figures for each project and adds them up.

Build Macro That Iteratively Runs Goal Seek?

Nov 7, 2012

I'm trying to build a macro that iteratively runs a goal seek, then reduces a certain value (Let's call it "Bogey") in a different cell by a small amount (note that changing Bogey will affect the desired goal seek value), then runs the goal seek again, reduces Bogey by a small amount again, etc etc, and keeps running in this loop, with the restriction on this loop being that a different cell, affected by Bogey--let's call it "Constraint"--doesn't drop below a certain amount.

Loop Within A Loop (repeat The Loop Values)

Mar 31, 2008

With Sheets("regrade pharm_standalone")
For Each r In .Range("standaloneTerritory")
If r.Value = "X101" Then
r.EntireRow.Copy
Sheets("X101").Range("A1").End(xlDown).Offset(1).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
End If
Next r
End With
-------------------
I need to repeat this loop for values from X101 to X151. In all cases, the sheet name is equal to the value I'm looking up (eg: value = X102 goes to sheet X102).

I have a named range called 'territories' that contains the list of X101 -> X152.

I'm hoping to make the code perform the loop for each of the territories without my having to copy & paste and change the 'X101' 51 times as this would seem a rather silly thing to do!

Loop: Macro To Go Through The Table And Preform An Operation In The Corresponding Cell In Column B Depending On The Value In Cell A

Mar 27, 2007

I have 2 columns and 10 rows (A1:B10). In column A are certain text values. How do I write a macro to go through the table and preform an operation in the corresponding cell in column B depending on the value in cell A? for example, if A3 = "Complete", overwrite the formula in B3 with the value (paste value)?

VBA Loop - Remove Single Character From Cell String Then Calculate New Value In Cell

Mar 1, 2012

I have a string of text in cell A2. In cell B2 of my spreadsheet is a formula that calculates a number based on the text string in cell A2.

I want to write a VBA loop that removes a single character from the cell A2 string, then calculate the new value in cell B2. I want this loop to continue until the value in B2 falls below a set value (in this case 60).

My code so far
Sub trim_text()
Dim mytext As String
Dim myanswer As Integer
mytext = Range("A2")
myanswer = Range("B2")
Do While myanswer > 60
mytext = (Right(mytext, Len(mytext) - 1))
Loop
End Sub

This obviously does not work. In my excel table I have a formula in cell B2 to calculate "myanswer" will this work, or does that code have to be placed into the VBA code?

Loop Through Multiple Files And Call Macros (but Unable To Loop)

May 14, 2014

Macro which loops through a number of files and calls the same macro in each of them. Unfortunately when I add "Application.Run..." to the code, it no longer loops through the process and instead stops after updating the first file in the loop. If I remove the "Application.Run..." code and add any other code, the loop works fine and it continues through the process repeating all the steps for each file found.

Why it stops after one file when using "Application.Run..." to call the macros?

NB I have a list of path and file names starting in row 8 of columns A and C. Each file in the list has a macro called UpdateS1 and promoupdate1.

Sub C_Run_Loop_Macro()
Dim lastRow As Long
Dim i As Long

Store Row Number Within Loop And Delete All Stored Rows After Loop?

Sep 11, 2013

I have working code that returns a row number within a for loop based on parameters I set.

Each time the for loop runs I would like to store this row number, then after the loop has finished, delete all stored rows.

Code:
for rowNum = 1 to x (some variable end row number which I already have worked out using End(xlUp).Row)
if x = y then
*storedRow = rowNum
end if
next rowNum
*

Lines with a * are the bits I can't work out. I've been trying to understand arrays by reading posts on what other people have done, but I can't fit (or fully understand) the reDims, or reDim preserves into my code. I've seen what appear to be quite complex ways involving uBounds and LBounds, but unfortunately I can't see how to use them.

All I want is to simply keep adding a row numbers to a variable, (i.e. row 2, 5, 20, 33, 120, etc) and then delete those specific rows.

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.

Loop Through Index Worksheets Using For Loop And Select Clause

Nov 4, 2013

I have a workbook that contains, say, 50 worksheets: the first two worksheets summarise the data and are static in that they don't move position. However, the next four worksheets contain certain data for any given month. Each time a new month comes along, say, November, I insert four new worksheets after the two static ones as a result October's four worksheets are simply moved down the line in terms of worksheet order.

I need a macro to refer to the first six worksheets only (not the other tabs). I opted for index referencing for each worksheet, ie one - six. Now within these six worksheets in any given month, I need to sort the data by a certain column. The problem: in sheets 1,4,5 and 6 I need to rank by column E, but in sheets 2 and 3 I need to rank by column C. I have stepped through the code, which works for sheets 3-6, but doesn't seem to refer to sheets 1-2.

Sub WorksheetLoop()
'
' Loop through an indexed number of worksheets; _
' & this ensures that the worksheet range is dynamic _
' and is able to adjust when new sheets are added/removed, etc.
'
'Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim i As Long
Dim ws As Worksheet

Macro To Loop Until Cell Value Equals Another Cell Value?

Jan 8, 2013

I have a Random Number macro that will generate a random number (from 1 to 50) and place it into cell C4 of the worksheet. From there, various calculations are performed in the spreadsheet, ending with a value in cell AB5 and cell AB6. Depending on this random number, occasionally the value of cell "AB5" and cell "AB6" do not match. I want the macro to continue looping (generating another random number until a match is made between AB5 and AB6). I've tried various things but nothing is working to make it loop.

Below is the code for the random number macro.

VB:
Sub RandomNo()
Randomize
MyNumber = Int((50 - 1 + 1) * Rnd + 1)
Range("c4").Value = MyNumber
End Sub

Loop Through Row Add Each Value To One Cell?

Oct 19, 2011

I would like to be able to loop through a row for example A2:A10 if any of these cells has a value then I want to add then to each other.

So if:
A2 Has "BM"
A3 Has "COM1"
A4 Has "FREE"

The results in A2 would be "BM COM1 FREE"

I think I need to add a space between each value as well and I then want to clear the values from all the cells from A3:A10

How to do this with VBA? Here is a snipit of what I have so far, which isnt much.

Code:
For y = 2 To 10
If Cells(i, y).Value vbNullString Then
'Add values now
End If
Next y

Avoid Changing A Loop Counter Within A Loop?

Oct 24, 2009

I've worked on a solution for this thread (http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...-automate.html) but have been mentally challenged with how to avoid changing the loop counter in one of the loops I have used to resort an array of file names from the getopenfile dialog.

The aim of the shown code (see post 12 of the above link for attached file) is to check if the file containing the macro is included in the array returned by getopenfile while sorting the array of file names, and if so, moving it to the end of the array for "deletion" by redimming the array to exclude the last item. This problem of the open file being selected in the dialog may never arise, but... as the OP's request in the other thread was to allow two-way comparisons between numerous files, I've considered it likely enough to test for.

Here's the code I have settled for esp between the commented lines of hash symbols, which does change the counter (see the commented exclamation marks), but prevents an infinite loop (on my second try!) by using a second boolean flag of "HasCounterBeenChanged". Is there a better way of doing this? Or, alternatively (not in my thread title), is it possible to prevent the active file being selected through one of the arguments in the getopenfilename method?

Loop Using Cell Values

Jun 4, 2014

I am attempting to create a loop for each row after cell B2. In column B I have a list of dates. I would like the macro to open the workbook titled "Name (date in cell B)" and copy two cells and paste in columns C and D of the Test.xlsm worksheet. I can do this for a single case but I want to loop for each date (I know the parts in red are incorrect).

In addition, I want to break the date in Cell B2 up into the various components i.e. year, month etc so I can make it more robust in opening a file (see the part highlighted in blue).

Code:
Sub Test()Dim varCellvalue As String
varCellvalue = Range("B2").TextWorkbooks.Open "\.....2014 6 JunName " & varCellvalue & ".xlsx"Windows("Name " & varCellvalue & ".xlsx").ActivateRange("C6:D6").SelectSelection.CopyWindows("Test.xlsm").ActivateRange("C2").SelectSelection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _:=False, Transpose:=FalseWindows("Name " & varCellvalue & ".xlsx").ActivateActiveWindow.Close

Keep Finding Last Used Cell In Loop

Dec 3, 2006

I am trying to find the first empty cell in a column to paste values. I have read the FAQ and searched the forums but every solution seems to fail me! I have tried the ...xlup, xldown, loops, For , IF statements, etc. to no avail.

My column has the first Four Rows empty with some Header rows in Row 6. I want to paste starting on Row 7. The most success I have had is finding the first empty cell and pasting a value but every subsequent attempt to find the next empty cell and paste a value just keeps pasting on the same cell found in the first attempt. Below is my most recent attempt. I am using MS-Office 2003 (or is there some special worksheet setting that prevents this from working?)

Sub My_Finder()

Dim cP1 As Range
Dim M As Integer
Dim Task As Range
Dim MyRange As Range

Worksheets("Weeks2").Activate

Name Cell At Each Loop Increment

Sep 11, 2007

I am experimenting one way to solve one problem, but to do this I have to Name some cells with some values, thing that normaly in VBA is symple but I have never done before in coding. May be my problem is because what I am doing is not valid with the vlookup but if you can take a look to my file. The problem is that when I run the Macros the Named Cells are totaly out of place...

Sub Lookup()
dercell_unit = Range("C65500").End(xlUp).Row
Range("B" & dercell_unit, "E2").Select
Set Rango = Range("B" & dercell_unit, "E2")
For i = 2 To dercell_unit
Names.Add "VALrsa", "=$C" & i
Names.Add "RESOLdds", "=$D" & i
Cells(i, 7) = Application.VLookup(Cells(i, 2), Rango, 4, False)
Next i

Loop Through Cell Comments

Jan 24, 2008

I need help with my current macro so that it will look in several cells (myrange) if comment(s) are found, write it in a particular cell, so that you end up with all comments written in that cell. If no comment are found then search until the end of the range(or until all comments are found). My current problem is that it is repeatedly writing the comments it finds and I end up with the same number of comments in one cell as number of cells in myrange.

A Loop To Read One Cell And Print To Another

I am trying to program a loop in Excel VBA to read the first two characters of a cell in column A and, depending on the characters returned, to print something else in column B, then move to the next row up. What I have so far below is pieced together from little insights from over the web, but currently it does nothing. Not even error messages. It has more fields (if "XX" > print blah blah) but they are all the same, so only the first two iterations are shown here for clarity.

Enter Start / End Value In Box And Then Loop Value In Cell?

Oct 9, 2012

In Loop Store Cell Address For Later Use

Jan 31, 2013

What I am trying to do is during a loop operation, which subtotals variable ranges, I want to store the locations of the cells that it puts the sum function into. I.E. if based on criteria it determines that range E4:E12 is summed into E13, I need to save E13 to use in a formula once I'm out of the loop. I don't know how many instances it will find and there's the possibility in the future that not only will the number of instances increase, but the location could always be different as well. Any way to do this without a million lines of code.

Loop: Changes A Cell Value On 2 Sheets In A Workbook

May 29, 2008

I am trying to loop a procedure that changes a cell value on 2 sheets in a workbook. I recorded a macro on one workbook and it worked fine. I then tried to modify the macro to loop this on more workbooks that have identical worksheet names. The macro is in a workbook named LIST, which column A has a list of all the workbook names. Currently there are 55 workbooks, but in the future I am sure there will be a few more. Here is a copy of the macro:

Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
' Macro recorded 5/28/2008 by MT
'
Dim STATEstr As String
Dim a As Long
a = Range("C1")
For STATEstr = A1 To A55
Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:ALLSTATES" & STATEstr & ".XLS"
Sheets("3 ANL").Select
Range("A1").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = a
Sheets("3 ANLV").Select
Range("A1").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = a
ActiveWorkbook.Save
ActiveWindow.Close
Next STATEstr
End Sub
The first error I got was a TYPE MISMATCH on 'For STATEstr = A1 To A55'.
There may be more things wrong with this looping. The only experience I have with macros is recording them and then modifying and combining them.
