Skip SpecialCells Action If There Are No Blank Cells
Aug 21, 2008
I am trying to run an action on a series of cells that inserts rows whenever there are blank cells (resulting from the formula) in column.
The problem: When I have a situation where there are not blank cells, the the .SpecialCells action does not work. I have tried the On Error Goto, but I have multiple equations that can have this occur and I have only been able to use that feature once in a macro.
LR = ActiveSheet.Range("B65536").End(xlUp).Row
Set Rng = Range("A2:A" & LR)
With Rng
.FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(OR(AND(RC[16]="""",R[-1]C[16]=1),AND(R[1]C[16]="""",RC[16]=1)),"""",1)"
End With
Set Rng = Range("A:A")
With Rng
.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormulas, 2).EntireRow.Insert 'stopped here
End With
I'm looking to create a formula that will skip past any blanks until it finds the latest and most up-to-date value.
Some context: I wish to return a latest estimate value to a cell (A5), and this value is updated quarterly. Let's say that the quater 1 value sits in cell A1, Q2 in A2, Q3 in A3 and Q4 in A4. I wish cell A5 to display the latest estimate as soon as a user updates it on a quarterly basis, but default to the previous quarter's estimate if that latest view is unavailable.
I've tried using some IF(ISBLANK...) combinations but am getting nowhere !
NB want to try and avoid Macros across this worksheet so a formula solution would be best.
I have this code to sort numbers from smallest to largest but i need it to ignore blank cells. Sub sort1neg() ' ' sort1pos Macro ' ' Range("a4:aq174").Select ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("sort").Sort.SortFields.Clear
I have a range that I need to copy to a new worksheet. It basically looks like steps going across the sheet. Whenever I skip blank cells during the paste to the new sheet Excel does not skip anything. Any ideas on how I would shift all data to be on the left side of the without copying the blank cells.
I have a spreadsheet where a column has many cells being empty and others with values. I need to use copy-paste skip blanks to another column so it only overwrites cells that contains values. BUT The cells in the column appears to be empty, not blank, when I try use the copy-paste skip blanks it doesnt work. However, when I press delete in every empty cell the copy-paste skip blanks works for those cells.
Do you got a fast method to make all the empty cells blank?
I have a column of data that I want to display as a chart. However, there are some blank cells in the column. When I use a simple line chart, the chart drops the line all the way down to zero for the blank cells. If the blank cell is B4 in column B, is it possible to make excel ignore that cell and connect B3 and B5 with a straight line?
my data is having blank cells. when I am trying to paste it in other column it is getting pasted as it is. I don't want to copy the blank cells. It should be like Col B.
how to create a pivot table that does not skip through blank data cells. I have a pivot table with data for several dates, but not every date has a data point. I would want the pivot table to show all the dates with the blanks, rather than skip through the days with no data.
How do I use SpeciaCells to select cells in a range with a certain value?
In the same manner that you can use SpecialCells to select blank cells and then delete that entire row I want to do the same for a cell containing a specific value/text
I have been using SpecialCells to assign a value in blank cells as a temporary marker. I then need to delete the rows with the temporary markers. I have not been able to use SpecialCells to select the temporary markers .
Having problems with trying to get my vba code to access the SpecialCells property. Receiving the following error.... Unable to get the SpecialCells property of the Range class. The section of my code is below that is causing the error. Keeps stopping on the "Selection.SpecialCells(xlsCellTypeVisible).Select" line.
Sheets(" Book Query").Range("A6:I6").Select Sheets("Book Query").Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select Selection.SpecialCells(xlsCellTypeVisible).Select Selection.Copy Sheets("Inventories and Variances").Select Sheets("Inventories and Variances").Range("A7").Select
I ahve looked loads on here but I really did not understand the " find" statement (!) so have had to do a lookup the only way I know - with loops.
I have two problems: The first being that it takes 6mins to run and return values. The second AND MOST IMPORTANT is the following....
What i want to do with the following code is - on the first "If" - if I find an emptycell/blank, i want to exit the "if" so the first "next" statement is incremented - in other words, be able to check if the next cell along is blank/non-empty
I tried using the "exit for" but I only want to opt out of the if statement - not the actual "for..next"
I would have used a goto to get to the line I wanted but it has different meanings with this language....
Numrows2 = Worksheets("File2").Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row 'Gets the File2 Row count
For e = 2 To 7 'Cols B-G (2-7) contain the headings For d = 1 To 229 'There are 228 cells down to check For f = 7 To 212 'File1 has 206 cells across cols 7-212 Worksheets("Looklist").Activate If IsEmpty(Worksheets("File2").Cells(1, f)) Then Exit For
I have code to highlight the min price in each row of a range of cells. However some rows are left blank as seperators between different types of products. These rows are being completely highlighted. Is there some way to skip blank rows?
I have a workbook which contains a master document sheet and 14 worksheets with various if(and or vlookup statements to extract the data as we need it at our centre.
I wasn't able to sort the data alphabetically with iferror leave cell black, so I changed it to if error "zz". I am now having to sort 14 sheets A-Z every time I make a change to my workbook...very time consuming and frustrating. I'm looking for a way to not have to sort my worksheets, to have it done automatically or is there a way to skip rows if the data doesn't match the formula? I don't have any experience in Macros
I have removed a lot of the pages from my workbook example. The sheet that I am trying to skip rows is the 'Dolphin Chn' one. Data is coming from the other sheets. I have used conditional formatting to make ZZ entries white, so they won't be visible.
I want my macro to consider the # of rows of data on a spreadsheet and insert values into columns for those rows but then stop when it hits a blank one. For simplified example below, I have 3 columns in my spreadsheet. Row 1 has headers of Location, Status, and Effective Date. The first 5 rows of data under the headers have a value in the Location column (San Jose, Oakland, etc). When I run the macro, I want it to insert a value of "ACTIVE" in the Status column for each row that has a value in the Location column. Also, a single Effective Date value is stored in a cell elsewere in the spreadsheet, and I want the macro to insert that value in the Effective Date column for each row that has a value in the Location column. When it hits a blank row - row 7 in this spreadsheet - I want it to stop.
Location| Status | Effective Date San Jose Oakland Austin Houston Phoenix
I currently am using an IF statement in the Status column fields to say if Location = blank, then blank, else "ACTIVE". That works, except that the # of rows populated in Location column could be 5 or 1,000, and inserting the formula that many times seems to quickly increase the file size.
I have macro that exports certain range to text file. It goes through first to last row and exports it to Text file. Here is the part of the For Each myRecord In Range("A2:A" & Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row) With myRecord For Each myField In Range(.Cells, Cells(.Row, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft)) sOut = sOut & DELIMITER & DEL & myField.Text Next myField Print #nFileNum, Mid(sOut, 2) sOut = Empty End With Next myRecord The problem is that sheets might by empty. I would like to add something to this code ( I guess some IF condition) so that all blank rows are skipped and not exported to text file.
I have an excel file that contains a list of all clients and want to add an "Active Client" tab within the workbook. The list indicates some active, some inactive. The "Active client" column shows an x at 1st row or if "Inactive" is left blank. I want to auto populate all "Active Clients" to a different Worksheet without having blank rows or FALSE as the result of the current formula ...
Can a macro make a workbook everytime you copy, it will paste special formulas only and skip blank rows? And can I still let me select the range manually? I would like to use this to link workbooks.
I have the following VBA code which shades rows and works if the filtered rows are less than 11,000.
With ws.Range(ws.Range("A4"), ws.Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp)) .AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterInPlace, Unique:=True .OffSet(1).Resize(.Rows.Count - 1, ws.UsedRange.Columns.Count).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Interior.ColorIndex = 4 .Parent.ShowAllData End With
However if the number of filtered rows exceeds 11,000 I get an error (1004 - MS Excel cannot create or use the data range reference because it is too complex. ....). I understand that SpecialCells is limited to a certain number (8,192) of rows. How can I amend the above code to accommodate this?
The gaps are of varying length. So far I have been playing with the Range("a1").Select ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select Do While Not IsEmpty(ActiveCell) 'do copy action ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select Loop of course, this stops when it reaches a blank cell.
I think the best way to do it is if I set a range, and then get excel to go down the column and copy whereever there is cell content.
I am trying to take some action based on the string values in selected cells. Here is my code to iterate through selected cells and count the occurances of certain string values:
Private Sub TakeAction() Dim cel As Range Dim sel As Range Dim complete As Integer 'a counter for completed Dim pending As Integer ' a counter for pending Dim cancelled As Integer ' a counter for cancelled Set sel = selection For Each cel In sel If cel.Text = "Some text" Then complete = Complete +1 If cel. Text = "Some other text" Then pending = pending +1 If cel.Test = "Yet some other text" cancelled = cancelled +1 End If End If End If Next cel
MsgBox complete MsgBox pending MsgBox cancelled End Sub
Converting old reports to usable excel format. I am having trouble using VBA to set up a looping macro that would search Column A for cells with the text string: "ACTIVITY TOTAL". If cell has that value I would like to perform text to column action on the adjacent cell (R0C1). The macro recording for the test to column settings i need is :
I have attached a sample of what I am currently working with. The actual file has roughly 6000 lines of data, so I would like the macro to go through all lines.
The spreadsheet that i use includes a table that some of the cells are displayed as blanks( include an IFERROR function ) I need to calculate the XIRR for a range of cells in a row that includes some of these "Blank" cells
I`m trying to do is paste a formula accross multiple columns whilst skipping the empty cells. I tried using the "skip blanks" tick box but it still filled in the empty cells??
I've been trying to paste formula throughout a range of cells in the same column. Trouble is, I protect some sub- total cells and don't want the formula to paste over those sub-total formulas.
If I protect the sheet and paste the formula throughout the column including the protected cells, I would get an error message.
How can I paste the new formulas without getting into trouble of the protected cells?
