variables in variables VBA - vba

number 1 to 100 are stored in column A and I want to declare variables where N1 = 1, N2 = 2, ... N100 = 100. But I am always stuck. Here is my VBA code:
Sub one_hundred()
For y = 1 To 100
"N" & "y" = y
Next y
End Sub

Exit 2 For loop when condition is met in a 3 For loop nested system in VBA

I am trying to write a code which has multiple For and If loops. I will try to explain the problem first where the dataset I have is like the following in column 'AH':
0,0,0,0,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,2,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,2,2,2,2,2,0,0,..... where the number of 0s, 1s and 2s in a stretch is unknown. What I am trying to find the number of cycles, where a cycle is defined when there has to be atleast 3 0s in a stretch and then has to be atleast 4 2s consecutively. So, to do that, I wrote the code in the following format
Dim M As Single: Dim Count As Integer: Dim A As Integer: Dim B As Integer
M = 2: Count = 0: A =3: B=4
Dim temp As Integer: Dim temp1 As Integer: temp = 0
For L = M To 50
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("AJ" & M) = M
temp = 0
For L1 = L To L + A
temp = temp + Sheets("Sheet1").Range("AH" & L1)
Next L1
If temp = 0 Then
N = L + A
For N1 = N To 60
If Sheets("Sheet1").Range("AH" & N1) = 2 Then
temp1 = 0
For I1 = N1 To N1 + B
temp1 = temp1 + Sheets("Sheet1").Range("AH" & I1)
Next I1
If temp1 = 2 * B Then
flg = True
Exit For
End If
End If
Next N1
Count = Count + 1: M = I1
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("AJ2") = Count
If flg = True Then Exit For
End If
M = M + 1
Next L
Basically, what I am trying to do is find the first 0 and count the sum of 3 consecutive values. If it is 0, then I am searching for 2. When the first 2 is found, it will add up the next 4 terms and if the sum is equal to 2*4, then I will update the count and the code should start look for 0. However, using the 'Exit For' puts me out of all the loops. And if I don't put Exit, then it keep counting the 2s for more times. I am new to VBA and struck with this problem for a long time. Any help on this will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Excel VBA how to set number sequence to start at middle of the row?

I previously have a Excel sheet with VBA coding that fills column, row 1 to 10 with the number 1, row 11 to 20 with number 2 and so on. The code I've used is as follows:
Sub fill()
Dim ID
ID = 1
For c = 1 To 34
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(c, 1) = ID
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(c + 1, 1) = ID
c = c + 1
If (c Mod 10) = 0 Then
ID = ID + 1
End If
Next c
End Sub
Now I want to change it so that the code starts at row 3 onwards. Meaning row 3 to 12 = 1, row 13 to 22 = 2 and so on. So I changed the 'For' statement to:
For c = 3 To 34
But what happens is that the number 1 appears from row 3 to row 10, and then continues with number 2 in row 11 to 20. Not what I was expecting.
Therefore, what would be the best method of changing the code?
If you want exactly the same output but two rows lower, you can use:
Sub fill()
Dim ID
ID = 1
For c = 1 To 34
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(c + 2, 1) = ID
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(c + 3, 1) = ID
c = c + 1
If (c Mod 10) = 0 Then
ID = ID + 1
End If
Next c
End Sub
If you still only want to go to row 34 but start in row 3, change the 34 to 32 in the above code.
You can also do it without looping and this is easier to adjust the parameters:
Sub fill()
Const NUMBER_OF_ROWS As Long = 34
Const START_ROW As Long = 3
Const ID As Long = 1
Const NUMBER_IN_GROUP As Long = 10
With ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(START_ROW, 1).Resize(NUMBER_OF_ROWS)
.Value = .Parent.Evaluate("INDEX(INT((ROW(" & .Address & ")-" & START_ROW & ")/" & _
NUMBER_IN_GROUP & ")+" & ID & ",)")
End With
End Sub
When i understand you write, this should work:
You can use the loop how you did at the beginning. and just add plus 2 to c in the ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Tabelle1").Cells(c + 2, 1) = ID
Sub fill()
Dim ID
ID = 1
For c = 1 To 34
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Tabelle1").Cells(c + 2, 1) = ID
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Tabelle1").Cells(c + 3, 1) = ID
c= c+1
If (c Mod 10) = 0 Then
ID = ID + 1
End If
Next c
End Sub
something like that should be the simplest way:
Sub fill()
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer
For i = 1 To 4
For j = 1 To 10
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(j + (i - 1) * 10 + 2, 1) = i
Next j
Next i
End Sub
EDIT:
No, the simplest way would be type formula into A3:
=ROUNDDOWN(((ROW()-3))/10,0)+1
end drag it donw.

Excel VBA: "Next Without For" Error

I am getting the "next without for" error. I checked other questions on this and looked for any open if statements or loops in my code, but could find none. I'm need an extra set of eyes to catch my error here.
I am trying to loop through this code and advance the torque value 3 times each times it gets to the 30th i.
'This is Holzer's method for finding the torsional natural frequency
Option Explicit
Sub TorsionalVibrationAnalysis_()
Dim n As Integer 'position along stucture
Dim m As Integer
Dim i As Long 'frequency to be used
Dim j As Variant 'moment of inertia
Dim k As Variant 'stiffness
Dim theta As Long 'angular displacement
Dim torque As ListRow 'torque
Dim lambda As Long 'ListRow 'omega^2
Dim w As Variant
Dim s As Long
'equations relating the displacement and torque
n = 1
Set j = Range("d2:f2").Value 'Range("d2:f2").Value
Set k = Range("d3:f3").Value
'initial value
Set w = Range("B1:B30").Value
For i = 1 To 30
'start at 40 and increment frequency by 20
w = 40 + (i - 1) * 20
lambda = w ^ 2
theta = 1
s = 1
Do While i = 30 & s <= 3
torque = lambda * j(1, s)
s = s + 1
End
m = n + 1
theta = theta - torque(i, n) / k(n)
torque(i, m) = torque(i, n) + lambda * j(m) * theta
If m = 4 & i < 30 Then
w(i) = 40 + (i - 1) * 20
lambda = w(i) ^ 2
ElseIf m = 4 & i >= 30 Then
Cells([d], [5+i]).display (i)
Cells([e], [5+i]).display (theta)
Cells([f], [5+i]).display (torque)
Else
End If
If m <> 4 Then
n = n + 1
End If
Next i
End Sub
You are trying to terminate your While with an End instead of Loop
Try changing your End to Loop in your Do While loop. I think you are terming the loop when you hit that End
Proper indentation makes the problem rather apparent.
You have:
For i = 1 To 30
'...
Do While i = 30 & s <= 3
'...
End
'...
If m = 4 & i < 30 Then
'...
ElseIf m = 4 & i >= 30 Then
'...
Else
End If
If m <> 4 Then
'...
End If
Next i
But run it through Rubberduck's Smart Indenter and you get:
For i = 1 To 30
'...
Do While i = 30 & s <= 3
'...
End
'...
If m = 4 & i < 30 Then
'...
ElseIf m = 4 & i >= 30 Then
'...
Else
End If
If m <> 4 Then
'...
End If
Next i
End Sub
Notice how the End other answers are pointing out, is clearly not delimiting the Do While loop.
The Next i is inside the Do While block, which isn't terminated - when the VBA compiler encounters that Next i, it doesn't know how it could possibly relate to any previously encountered For statement, and thus issues a "Next without For" compile error.
Use an indenter.

vba check for negative value

I wrote a simple VBA code to check if the value of a cell is negative and if it is negative, highlight it red. For some reason, I keep getting "run-time mismatch". My code is
For x = 2 To 100
Set val3 = Worksheets("Summary").Cells(x, 9)
If val3.Value < 0 Then
Worksheets("Summary").Cells(x, 9).FontColorIndex = 3
End If
Next x
Column 9 (the column I am checking) is filled with dollar values. Thank you in advance for your help.
In your code, you're simply missing a dot.
FontColorIndex = 3
should be:
Font.ColorIndex = 3
Public Sub test()
For x = 2 To 100
Set val3 = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(x, 9)
If val3.Value < 0 Then
Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(x, 9).Font.Color = RGB(99, 179, 73)
End If
Next x
End Sub
Code above works in excel 2007
Thanks for your post, I needed to change the negative numbers to zeros after a certain process - BUT I want to check them before I use them so changing the font color is useful, so this code works well for the whole sheet range until (245,50)
Sub negnumbers()
For x = 1 To 245
For y = 1 To 50
Set val3 = Worksheets("target sheet").Cells(x, y)
If val3.Value < 0 Then
Worksheets("target sheet").Cells(x, y).Font.ColorIndex = 3
Worksheets("target sheet").Cells(x, y) = 0
End If
Next y
Next x
End Sub

What could be slowing down my Excel VBA Macro?

This function goes through all integers and picks out binary values with only five ones and writes them to the spreadsheet.
To run this For x = 1 To 134217728 would take 2.5 days!!!! Help!
How could I speed this up?
Function D2B(ByVal n As Long) As String
n = Abs(n)
D2B = ""
Do While n > 0
If n = (n \ 2) * 2 Then
D2B = "0" & D2B
Else
D2B = "1" & D2B
n = n - 1
End If
n = n / 2
Loop
End Function
Sub mixtures()
Dim x As Long
Dim y As Integer
Dim fill As String
Dim mask As String
Dim RowOffset As Integer
Dim t As Date
t = Now
fill = ""
For x = 1 To 134217728
mask = Right(fill & CStr(D2B(x)), Len(fill & CStr(D2B(x))))
Debug.Print mask
If x > 100000 Then Exit For
If Len(mask) - Len(WorksheetFunction.Substitute(mask, "1", "")) = 5 Then _
RowOffset = RowOffset + 1
For y = 1 To Len(mask)
If Len(mask) - Len(WorksheetFunction.Substitute(mask, "1", "")) = 5 Then _
Range("mix").Offset(RowOffset).Cells(y) = Mid(mask, y, 1)
Next
Next
Debug.Print DateDiff("s", Now, t)
End Sub
By first sight guess, I think the problem lies in the fact that you do that cell by cell, which causes many read and write accesses.
You should do it range by range, like
vArr = Range("A1:C1000").Value
' it is array now, do something here effeciently
Range("A1:C1000").Value = vArr
You want find all 28bit numbers with 5 1s
There are 28*27*26*25*24/5/4/3/2=98280 such numbers
The following code took ~10 seconds on my PC:
lineno = 1
For b1 = 0 To 27
For b2 = b1 + 1 To 27
For b3 = b2 + 1 To 27
For b4 = b3 + 1 To 27
For b5 = b4 + 1 To 27
Cells(lineno, 1) = 2 ^ b1 + 2 ^ b2 + 2 ^ b3 + 2 ^ b4 + 2 ^ b5
lineno = lineno + 1
Next
Next
Next
Next
Next
mask = Right(fill & CStr(D2B(x)), Len(fill & CStr(D2B(x))))
The above line of code does the same thing (CStr(D2B(x))) twice.
Store the result of CStr(D2B(x)) in a variable & use that variable in the above line of code.
I've got 2 suggestions:
Get rid of the substitution command by counting the ones/zeroes in D2B and return an empty string if the count does not equal 5
Write these pre-filtered bitstrings to an array first and copy the array directly to the cells when finished.
Something like
ws.Range(ws.cells(1, 1), ws.cells(UBound(dstArr, 1) + 1, UBound(dstArr, 2) + 1)) = dstArr
The array-copy-trick greatly improves performance!
