Using Vlookup In A Macro

Dec 6, 2007

I would like to use vlookup in a macro. I have a simple form in excel that looks up information in a database. I wrote a simple macro that copies that copies the information into another tab dropping down each time and then refilling the formulas to pull data back from the database.

I need to be able to have my macro lookup into the database and overwrite the original row based on the name.

How do I write a vlookup into a macro?

""Sheets("Fill Db").Select
Range("b2:bf2").Select
Selection.Copy
Here is where I would like it to lookup (vlookup) based on the name in b2 from the sheet above find it in the sheet below and then copy value the line. Sheets("Final Database").Select
Range("b2:b250").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False...........

Macro Instead Of VLOOKUP

Oct 23, 2008

I write a vb-code that searches through a specific range in my sheet for specific three letter combinations and multiplies the value in the cell directly to the left of the cell in which it finds the three letter combination by the cell address specified by me? In other words, let say it finds the letters ABC in A2, B5 and D9. In cells A1, B4 and D8 I have entered som code that retrieves information from the other program. I would like the macro to leave this code untouched, but add to it "*N1" (N1 being the cell where I have stored the value that ABC corresponds to).

I would also like to specify the range in which it searches so that it doesnt add this multiplication anywhere where it is not supposed to.

VLOOKUP In A Macro

Dec 9, 2009

I have a straightforward VLOOKUP function which works fine until I put it into a macro. It then fails with an Error 1004 runtime message. The function looks at the contents of one cell, matches it against a particular cell in a separate worksheet and adjusts an adjacent cell accordingly.

How To Add VLookup To Longer Macro

Jul 25, 2013

how to add a vlookup to a longer macro I'm working on but I keep running into a variety of errors. I ended up creating a new Sub () to test out a very simple vlookup macro in the hopes of figuring out what's going on.

I went to this website VLOOKUP In VBA and copied exactly a sample code they provided there (only thing I changed was substituting in my own lookup value and range), but I'm still getting an "object required" error. Is there something wrong with the provided code, or do I have a setting off on my computer? I've tried to use vlookup in a macro several different ways but I keep getting assorted errors (including object required)

Code:

Sub Fustrated()
Dim E_name As String
E_name = "Lira"
Sal = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(E_name, Admin.Range("AF3:AG12"), 2, False)
MsgBox "Number" And Sal
End Sub

Using A Variable In A Vlookup Macro

Feb 25, 2005

I write quite a few macros that require a vlookup formula. The table array is often dynamic which means I must change my program. I am trying to find a way to create the formula to accomodate the growth of the table array. I can count the number of rows in the table by the counta function, but then when I try to use that variable in the formula it bombs.

Handle #N/A! In VLOOKUP Macro

Nov 7, 2006

I am doing a vlookup accross two sheets where I am adding up the first Vlookup with the second vlookup (ie vlookup sheet 1 + vlookup sheet2) and in one of the sheets the vlookup formula finds a value but in the other sheet it finds nothing. As such when the two formulas are added together it gives a value of #N/A. Since I have made a macro for this it is annoying.

The macro is as follows:

Sub Vlookup()
Dim rowc As Long
Dim i As Long

Application. ScreenUpdating = False

rowc = Application.WorksheetFunction. CountA( Range("a:a"))
For i = 2 To rowc
Cells(i, 3) = "=-VLOOKUP(RC[-2],Hksaldo!C[-2]:C[3],6,FALSE)+VLOOKUP(RC[-2],Likv!C[-2]:C[2],5,FALSE)"
Next i

End Sub

how I can get around this. Ie when I have a non applicable value i one of the Vlookup formula the formula should only look at the vlookup with a value?

Macro To Automate VLookup On New Sheet

May 20, 2008

I have a stock sheet of about 1500 items that is printed every 3 months for stock take.

The changes are then entered manually. I have set up a stock order sheet using VLookup and manually enter the items that need to be ordered. I'm wanting to know if i could use a macro to do this automatically and check only for the stock items that have changed (ie. items have been sold ). Stock levels needed on hand are usually constant but is changed from time to time so will have to be taken into consideration. I have included an example worksheet which would better explain what i have been doing so far. Also if possible could the macro generate a new worksheet for the order sheet and name it the corresponding date and month of generation.

I have a workbook with two sheets that I need to combine some of the data from. Sheet1 is a template to be used for translation purposes on Sheet2.

VLOOKUP Against Pivot Table In Macro

Sep 19, 2007

one part requires a pivot table to split two seperate pieces of data. the macro is running fine until this point when i get the AddFields method error (run time 1004). the Visual Basic error is as follows:

ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").AddFields RowFields:="Employee", _
ColumnFields:="Int.Ext"
With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("Lab Hrs")
.Orientation = xlDataField
.Caption = "Sum of Lab Hrs"
.Function = xlSum
End With
ActiveWorkbook.ShowPivotTableFieldList = False
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-6
Sheets("FINISHED WORKSHEET").Select
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll ToRight:=4
Range("AA1").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Int Lab Hrs"
Range("AA2").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=VLOOKUP(RC[-25],Sheet1!C[-26]:C[-24],3,FALSE)"
Range("AA2").Select

is this basically a write off or can anything be salvaged to make it run correctly. the pivot table will always use the same columns etc. every month it is run.

Msgbox Macro For Automated Vlookup

Apr 6, 2007

I am writing a macro for people at work to use to automatically vlook-up data from another spreadsheet.

I wanted to base it along the use of a msgbox as they are not the most tech-savy people.

I want the msgbox dialogue to go something like this -

Which spreadsheet do you want to pull in data from?

The user browses to the file they want

Which columns do you want to transfer?

The user types in the columns

Which columns do you want them pasted to (in new sheet)?

The user types in the columns they want to paste to
and then macro does the vlook-up.

Add Vlookup Function To Range With Macro

Sep 21, 2007

I wanna have a Vlookup Macro function in my spreadsheet. I perform a vlookup in the spreadsheet by using vlookup formula and I found out that it is waste of time to retrieve records from other file when I have a total of 55000 records in one spreadsheet. I plan to use macro functions to retrieve records instead of using vlookup formula. So is there any chance that I can create the macro based on my scenario? {i already attached my spreadsheet here, it is a dump data}

In the sample1.xls, I want to retrieve the records from the sample2.xls by using Material as the key field. When I run the Vlookup Macro, the system is able to help me lookup the value such as (Net Sales: January until Net Sales: March) and display the records in the sample1.xls based on the Material Key Field. So hope that my problems can be solve here.

VLOOKUP Function In Macro Code

Mar 18, 2008

Is it possible to Call the inbuilt Excel Functions (like VLOOKUP) in Macros. we have to pouplate cells with formula which uses VLOOKUP. one way was to update each cell with required Formula like: [code] Range("A1").value = " = 6*F7*(1-Vlookup(lookupvalue........))"[code] but this was stupid as no of cell to be populated was large and variable and moreover it will return formulae to cells rather than fixed value. What we tried was to defile an table_array as Array(x y) and then use this array to return required VLOOKUP value. However I was thinking is there any way to call function like VLOOKUP in Macros so that we can return a value to cell rather than formula.
