View 2 RepliesI want to save myself some time at work, that's why I want to create an automatic sheet in Excel using VBA. I need to create files with monthly reports of data.
My project looks like this:
1. Gather information from user (Month & Year)
2. Create a file which name is based on Month & Year
3. Select data sheet
4. Find date range to copy (RowBegin, RowEnd)
5. Copy nad Paste required data into new file (point 2.)
6. Delete rows, formated in certain way
7. Find bottom of all columns and insert row with all formulas
8. Format all sheet acording to requirements
I was looking over MrExcel.com and I know how to do all the points besides point -> 4. Find date range to copy (RowBegin, RowEnd)
I got a column "D" with about 5000 cells for now and the sheet is updated daily. In those cells I got dates formatted like this:
D
4012 14/02/2006
4013 21/02/2006
4014 15/03/2006
4015 15/03/2006
4016 17/03/2006
4017 07/04/2006
4018 07/04/2006
4019 20/04/2006
What I don’t know is how get in VBA two variables – range of row numbers describing selected month (for example March) - from (RowBegin) & to (RowEnd), in this case RowBegin=4014 and RowEnd=4016, which I can later put into:
RowSub = RowEnd - RowBegin
Range("A”&RowBegin&”:A”&RowEnd).Copy Sheets("March").Range("A1:A”&RowSub)
I've made an formula to concartenate some numbers:
In A1 the value is 0
In B1 the value is 0
In C1 the value is 6
In D1 the value is 9
In E1 the value is 5
These numbers will change acording to a formula, but:
In F1 the formula is =A1&B1&C1&D1&E1
but in F1 the result will be: 00695
How can i make the result in F1 to be 695 instead of 00695?
I want to use the range in this code that works fine in one work book from sheet to sheet...
But i need it to run across 2 workbooks that are both open at the same time... The data its bringing back will be in a seperate workbook.
Sub zzzz()
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Range("A3:M16").ClearContents
c = 3 'Paste Range Return Test
x = Worksheets("sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row 'data source
For a = 1 To x
If Worksheets("sheet1").Cells(a, 3) = Worksheets("sheet2").Range("a1") Then
For b = 1 To 20
Cells(c, b) = Worksheets("sheet1").Cells(a, b)
Next b
c = c + 1
End If
Next a
'Range("C3:C15,F3:F15,I3:I15").Select
'Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
Range("A1").Select
End Sub
A userform listbox places names in a column in Sheet2, starting with cell E1 and subsequent transfers from the listbox (which is multiselect) going to F1, G1 etc. There will be between 6 and 15 names in each case.
A seperate textbox is used to assign a number to each multiselection, this number is added to "Div" and placed in row 22 of the column to which the multiselection is transfered.
The text in this cell is used for other things later but I also want to use it to Name the range to which it refers. This name is then immediately used to populate another listbox in the userform, and will be used repeatedly later on in the project.
Here is the relavant snip of code that I have been trying to get to work but I get 'object required' for the ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add.......... line. I did manage to get rid of that once (can't recall how!!) but then the ListBox2,RowSource gave an error.
Set DvNm = Sheet2.Range("IV1").End(xlToLeft).Offset(21, 0)
Set Rngc = Sheet2.Range("IV1").End(xlToLeft)
Set Rngp = Sheet2.Range("D65536").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
DvNm.Value = "Div" & TextBox1.Value
Range(Rngc, Rngc.Offset(15, 0)).Copy
Rngp.PasteSpecial (xlPasteValues)
Application.CutCopyMode = False
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:=DvMn.Value, RefersToR1C1:="Range(Rngc, Rngc.Offset(15, 0))"
After pasting a Range and while the Range is still selected, I would like to Name it. May I have some assistance with the proper statement?

Worksheets("Inventory").Activate
maxrow = 0
maxrow = Range("a7"). CurrentRegion.Rows.Count
'Range("A7").Select
Range(Cells(8, "N"), Cells(maxrow, "N")).Name = "tbl_left"
when the junior re-open the workbook after closed, the size of the database
does not growth to a new area even junior add rows of data before close. It seems the currentregion does not work, I've tested it in VBE by press " F8".......
= OFFSET(CustomerInfo!$A$9,0,0, COUNTA(CustomerInfo!A:A),1)
for a "dynamic" range name...i like the concept, but my data validation in a cell that references this "dynamic" range name (with the offset function) doesn't recognize all the values in the range
(when i just range name it, the data validation sees all the names, but not all when i use the offset...)
I am trying to name a selected range in VBA in order to use it in a vlookup table. Code I have so far is as follows:
ActiveSheet.Name = TextN
Range("c9"). CurrentRegion.Select
Call formatting
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name = "formTextN", RefersToR1C1 = Worksheets(TextN) & "!" & "r9c2:r45c13"
The formatting works, but the selection does not get named.
I am having a hard time creating my ultimate gradebook. Right now, I am able to hide a SPECIFIC table on a SPECIFIC worksheet using the following code on a macro button:
VB : Sub HideRow()Range("Table2[#All]").EntireRow.Hidden = True End Sub
The problem is that this sheet will be a template and as a new user inserts a new sheet, I would like to copy and paste this template to each new sheet. Since the Table values change with each new sheet, code wont work on the new tables. How I can name each new sheets table "Class Data", and the macro button to hide will work on each respective sheet?
I have a range of data starting in C18, C17 is a label (DivsUsed) the number of rows can range from 1 to a few hundred.
I used the code below to name C18 onwards as a named range with the name DivsUsed and then to use this as a RowSource for a ListBox.
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim rangeToName As Range
'Sheet2.Range("C18", Range("C65536").End(xlUp)).Name = "DivsUsed" Tried this too
Set rangeToName = Sheet2.Range("C17", Range("C65536").End(xlUp))
rangeToName.CreateNames Top:=True
ListBox2.RowSource = "DivsUsed"
TextBox2.Value = Sheet2.Range("F2").Value 'This works ok
End Sub
Both tries, and anything else I have tried, give the error " Method 'Range' of object _Worksheet failed".
i'm very new to excel formulas & statistics in general. i only need to calculate averages but am having trouble naming the range in my formulas
in the example below, i want to use the first column to determine the range of data for the mean calculation.... so, I am seeking the average of just the numbers which correspond w/ A only. Similarly, I will then want an average for numbers corresponding to B, and then to C, etc etc...
I am trying to name a Range in VBA with the following Case statement.
Select Case counter
Case "2": Set Wk(numWeeks) = Range("P1:Q136")
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="Wk" & numWeeks, RefersTo:=Wk(numWeeks)
I have many more cases and have defined Wk(5) as a Range. What I am really after it is possible to to name the range using something similar to the code above that uses a predefined variable in the naming process.
I have a large file where I want to name about 30 ranges. Initially I had done this using the range addresses and it worked well, but I continue to modify the spreadsheet and add and delete rows, so I need to go back into the code and change the ranges manually. I know there has to be a better way.
What I wanted to try doing was finding some specific text. That text (in all the ranges) is actually one column to the left and 33 rows below where I want to start the named range. Additionally the named range will be a 10 x 33 range. For example, if the data starts in B1, the data to be named will be in B1:K33 and the search title will actually be in A34. Hopefully that's clear...
My original code looked like this:
Code:
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="[MyRangeName]", RefersTo:=ActiveSheet.Range("B2:K33")
I was attempting to us the Find function with this code, but I can't seem to figure out how to tell it to look for the text (that would be in A34) and then name the range that would be offset by (-33,1) and then name the entire range.
How to you reference a named range in naming another range? What is the syntax?
I have a dynamic range, and I want a second dynamic range to start in relation to the last cell of the first range.
I need to name a dynamic range of cells. The only constant is the column - H, and the heading "MRC".
MRC column in a table represents an array formula. Unknown is the row where it is going to show up and the number of rows that this array formula will take. I need to name this range (active cells based on the array formula) but do not know what row does it start with and how many rows will it take.
It is not the last table in column H either but there are 2 empty rows before the next table.
Trying something like that...
=========================
Set aCell = Range("H:H").Find(What:="MRC", LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False)
If Not aCell Is Nothing Then
aCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
========================================
That's how I select the first cell in the range. Not sure how to select the whole range and name it ..
ActiveCell.End(1xDown) ?
Range("B25").Name = "EndMull"
Its fine but if i insert a new row or column then it mucks the whole thing up. Is there away of naming them but if any cells, row or columns are inserted the range will automatically adjust to suit1
I have a column with product codes. each code starts with "11P - " and is followed by a 6 digit number. Is there a way that I can format the cell so that have this automaticlly added when I type in the rest of the code. For example if I type "123456" the cell would display "11P - 123456"
I imagine that it is a matter of setting up a custom # format, but I have no clue how to do that.

Designated Cell = 7
1 10 .034
15 25 .072
35 45 .089
Output Cell = ???
I am trying to find a formula for the output cell. Suppose the designated cell = 7 due to formulas above it. So that number is always given but can change. I then need a formula for the ouput cell that says if the designated cell is greater than or equal to 1, and less than 10, then the output cell should equal .034. So suppose the designated cell = 18.2. Then I would want the output cell to be .072 since it is greater than or equal to 15, and less than 25. The template I am using has 23 rows of numbers like above. I didn't know how to do it for 23 rows though. If/Then doesn't work because it is 23 statements long (well over the seven limit) and the vlookup only works when the cell is equal to a number and not a range.
I would like to count the number of occurence of a user given number in a range through VBA code. Have attached a sample with this.

My workbook has a summary page and one page for every day of the month. I am making a template file, so I can duplicate it to use every month of the year.
Each week is separated by a worksheet titled "week 1", "week 2" , etc. This is used in the summary page so I can gather totals for a week.
What I want to be able to do is this:
On the first day of the new month, go to week one and type in the date. Then that sheet tab would equal the date, and each daily tab name thereafter would increment the appropriate amount (1day). Then on week 2, it would be equal to the tab value for Friday +3.
The problems I see are:
1. In week 1 the month can start on any on of the 5 worksheets I have set up to cover the week. So any first day coding I need may have to be repeated in the first 5 worksheets
Is this do-able?
2. Tab naming code I have found on this site is not working for dates. 9-15-08 typed into a1 will not translate into the tab, even tho it is a valid name. I am using code VoGII gave which follows: ...

View 3 Replies View RelatedWe utilize a shared spreadsheet in our department named "Arrangement Requests".
From time to time and seemingly very random the sheet renames itself. When this happens anyone adding information to it becomes unable to save since the original "no longer exists".
This causes problems because everything we do is in real time and expected to be viewed by all as soon as save has been indicated.

Is there a way to name a new tab without knowing its name. For instance, when I create a new tab, it could be named "Sheet2" or "Sheet3", but there is sometimes no way to know. Is there a way to edit the name of that new tab without refering to it by name?
