I wanted to find the cell value 2 columns away. For example, i have found the closest number at A20, the next value i wanted to find will be at C20. Since the closest number may not always fall on A20. How do i code to find the cell.Value 2 columns away dynamically?
The code below is for I find my closest number
ClosestTime2.Value = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(wsInput4.Value, Range("A5:A805"), 1, False)
I did research about it but i found Range.Offset nut suitable for my case.
Since you know the search range ahead of time, you could use Match instead of VLookup. Match returns the relative position of the matching item in the range. You can calculate the row number by adding the row number of the first row of the search range - 1. In this case, since your search range starts on row 5, you would need to add (5 - 1) = 4 to the offset returned by Match to yield the row number.
Offset = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(wsInput4.Value, Range("A5:A805"), 0)
RowNum = Offset + 4
NextValue = Cells(RowNum, 3).Value
Sub Test()
'Use your sheet code name for below line.
With Sheet3
Dim foundcel As Range
'Use proper data in according to your need.
Dim output As String
'Use below line for your case
'Set foundcel = .Range("A5:A20").Find(what:=wsInput4.Value)
Set foundcel = .Range("A5:A20").Find(what:="Liza")
If Not foundcel Is Nothing Then
output = .Cells(foundcel.Row, foundcel.Column + 2).Value
'In your case use below line
'ClosestTime2.Value=.Cells(foundcel.Row, foundcel.Column + 2).Value
Else
Debug.Print "Data not match"
End If
Debug.Print output
End With
End Sub

I'm trying to have a program that can read a range of cells which consist of 12 cells (let's say: P79, R79, T79, V79, X79, Z79, AB79, AD79, AF79, AH79, AJ79, AL79) and under those cells there are 6 cells (let's say: V81, X81, Z81, AB81, AD81, AF81), the program is looking for whether or not there are values typed in the cells within the described range.
The program should be able to read the cells from left to right on the top row and loop down to the bottom row and read that from right to left.
If all the cells in the top row have values in them, then the program breaks and doesn't read the values in the bottom row.
As the program reads the values from each cell it should create a table consisting of three columns (let's say: M88, N88, O88), the leftmost column should have the cell number (in order of cell as read by the program (whichever cell has a value first in the loop is given the number 1 and then the next cell to have a value is given number 2 etc.). The middle column should have whatever value is written in it's corresponding cell read from the range. The right column should have the value of whatever is to the right of each cell containing a value.
The first value to be read with a value should give the value "Left End" and the last value to read (whether or not it is the 12th cell to have a value in the top row or the leftmost cell to have a value in the bottom row) should give the value "Right end".
An example of what a row from the table could look like:
Cell # Cell Value Position/Left/Right
1 First Left End
This is the code I have so far:
Sub Code()
Dim wb As Workbook: Set wb = ThisWorkbook
Dim ws As Worksheet: Set ws = wb.Sheets("Sheet1")
Dim i As Integer, j As Integer, k As Integer
' First loop to compare a car to the rest after it
For i = 1 To 12
For j = i + 1 To 12
If Not IsEmpty(ws.Range("Cell_" & i)) And Not IsEmpty(ws.Range("Cell_" & j)) Then
ws.Range("B82").Offset(i).Value = j
Exit For
End If
Next j
Next i
' Loop backwards to find "Right End"
For k = 12 To 2 Step -1 '24 To 2
If Not IsEmpty(ws.Range("Cell_12")) Then
ws.Range("B82").Offset(12).Value = "Right End"
Exit For
' Has the "Right End" Follow when cars are left blank for lower row
ElseIf IsEmpty(ws.Range("Cell_" & k)) And Not IsEmpty(ws.Range("Cell_" & k - 1)) Then
ws.Range("B82").Offset(k - 1).Value = "Right End"
Exit For
End If
Next k
What I have here merely inserts a count into a cell range, what I'm trying to do is have my code actually read the cells in the range in the order I described and one at a time look at which cells have values written in them and look at which cells (with values in them) are to the right of any cell with a value and produce the table described above.
After reading your explanation, which was quite challenging I tried to recreate what you are asking.
I used cells A1:L1 with numbers 1 to 12. in the row below that A2:L2, some numbers have been added. with an if value <> "" you can see which cells contain a value.
In the second worksheet the table is made:
Sub test()
Dim a As Integer
Dim i As Integer
Dim name As String
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(1).Activate
a = 1
For i = 1 To endcel
If Sheets(1).Range("a1").Offset(a, i - 1).Value <> "" Then
name = Sheets(1).Range("A1").Offset(a, i - 1).Value
Sheets(2).Activate
Sheets(2).Range("b2").Offset(i).Value = name
End If
Next i
End Sub
Does this help? You can adapt it a bit to your problem.
Good luck!
I want the cell to number itself in an incremental order depending upon the filters. I found the easiest way is to check for the above Row if it is hidden or not then number itself from 1 if hidden and previous cell value+1 if not hidden.
I've tried to achieve this using the Formula
=IF(COUNTA(ADDR)>SUBTOTAL(103, ADDR), 1, ADDR+1)
Where ADDR is defined as follows:
=ADDRESS(ROW()-1,COLUMN(), 4, TRUE)
SUBTOTAL function returns #VALUE as it cannot contain 3-D References.
Tried replacing SUBTOTAL() function with AGGREGATE(), same issue.
Tried to use VALUE() function to convert the ADDR string to value.
I tried to use VBA
Public Function IsHid(i As Integer)
Dim re As Range, x As Integer
Set re = Range("A" & i)
If re.EntireRow.Hidden Then
Set re = Range("A" & i + 1)
re = 1
Else
x = re.Value + 1
Set re = Range("A" & i + 1)
re = x
End If
End Function
The above function returns #VALUE.
The below function also returns #VALUE.
Public Function IsHid(i As Integer)
If Excel.ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Rows(i).Hidden Then
Cells(i + 1, 1).Value = 1
Else
Cells(i + 1, 1).Value = Cells(i, 1).Value + 1
End If
End Function
Very much appreciated if this functionality can be obtained by means of FORMULAS rather than the VBA
Use Subtotal combined with Count(A):
=SUBTOTAL(3,B$2:B2) and paste down.
This can be in column A and will number only visible rows when you filter on B, C, etc.
You might want to take a look here as well, for additional explanation.
Edit:
Let's say you have Sheet1 and you fill up Range A:G. In column A you want the numbering described in the question. Then Range A1 will hold a header (e.g. FilteredID) and Range B:G will hold your other values.
In range A2 all the way down, you put the formula =Subtotal(3, B$2:B2), in Range A3 this will be =Subtotal(3, B$2:B3), in A4 =Subtotal(3, B$2:B4), etc.
Now, when you filter on column B, C, D etc. so you'll have invisible rows, the numbering in column A will show the visible Row number.
For example, assuming you want to start numbering in row 2 and in column A and you have Excel 2010 or later:
=AGGREGATE(4,5,A$1:A1)+1
Just adjust the start cell as required.
I have two columns with random times and the times come from two different sources so the columns do not have the same amount of data points. I want to start with the first time in the first column and compare it to each time in the second column. If there is a match in times, I would like to pull relevant data. After a match is found (if there is one) I would like for the code to go to the second cell in the first column and compare it to every value in the second column and so on.
Here is the code I have so far:
Sub TransferInfo()
'Activate the Sub to Convert and Format Dates
Call ConvertDates
'Define Variables
Dim st As Worksheet
Dim ts As Worksheet
Dim lastrow As Long
Dim i As Integer
j = 2
'Find and set the last used row
Set st = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Data Table")
lastrow = st.Cells(st.Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
Set ts = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("ShopFloor")
'Cycle through/compare Row J, Column 18 based on each cell in Row I, Column 14
For i = 2 To lastrow
Do Until IsEmpty(ts.Cells(j, 8)) Or IsEmpty(st.Cells(j, 2))
If st.Cells(i, 14).Value = ts.Cells(j, 18).Value Then
st.Cells(i, 15).Value = ts.Cells(j, 2).Value
Exit Do
Else
st.Cells(i, 15).Value = ""
End If
j = j + 1
Loop
j = 2
Next i
End Sub
The other sub that I call at the beginning of this sub simply rounds the times in each column to the nearest 15 minute interval to increase the likelihood of matches between the columns.
My question is: The code does not copy and paste any more information although there are times that match between the two columns. Why would the code that I have not work? Also, with larger data sets I am afraid that this the code may crash Excel and because I have a loop within a loop trying to process a lot of data a lot of times, but I don't know of a more efficient way to accomplish what I am trying to without this code.
If anyone has any insights as to why this code doesn't work I would greatly appreciate any help.
Thanks!
Based on your code, it looks like you just need an INDEX/MATCH formula. Use this in O2 and copy down:
=IFERROR(INDEX(B:B,MATCH(N2,R:R,0)),"")
No need for VBA
I'm searching for a VBA macro for Excel, which can detect the word "mean", in column A. After this it would copy the yellow row with the formula in C to J.
The formula counts the average from one row after the last "mean" to the next =AVERAGE (C1323:C1437)
after every sixth mean there also needs to be Area and 150 copyied two rows after mean and I and J Need to be changed. Consequently I and J would refer to the cell A1441 in this case (=G1439/C1439*$A$1441) till the end of the file.
I'm not quite sure if it's easy or not but I'm totally overchallenged. I would be very thankful for help.

it's still wrong, but my first draft.
#stucharo the Area correction is difficult to describe I've added a better Picture with formulas. I hpe that now it's understandable
If your line ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=AVERAGE(R[-147]C:R[-1]C)" needs to change the number of rows betwen means each time then you'll need to add a variable as you comment suggests. Also, just writing the string to the cells value (ActiveCell.Value) means that you will see it written as a formaula when you click the cell in the workbook (and it'll highlight the range etc.). You could try replacing it with:
ActiveCell.Value = "=AVERAGE(R[" & i - Y & "]C:R[-1]C)"
although since I can't see the first row of your sheet I'm not certain that'll give you the correct range of rows each time.
If your row number is likely to change and you are copying over the same number of columns each time then it might also be just as easy to write the formula directly to cells within a loop, rather than explicitly copying it.
Adding text after every 6th "mean" would require you to keep count of how many means had passed so far. This can be done by incrememnting a counter variable and using the Mod operator will tell you the remainder after a division. Therefor numberOfMeans Mod 6 will give you the remainder when divided by 6 and when this equals zero you know you have a multiple of 6. I've tried to capture all this into the code below.....
Sub Test()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim startRow As Integer
startRow = 2
Dim endrow As Integer
endrow = Range("A2").End(xlDown).row
Dim lastMeanRow As Integer
lastMeanRow = startRow - 1
Dim areaRow as Integer
areaRow = lastMeanRow + 3
Dim meanCounter As Integer
meanCounter = 0
Dim avgColHeight As Integer
Dim col As Integer
Dim row As Integer
'Check each row in the sheet
For row = startRow To endrow
'Cols i and j in every row need to be modified
For col = 9 To 10
Cells(row, col).Value = "=RC[-2]/RC[-6]*R" & areaRow & "C1"
Next col
'If column 1 of that row contains "mean" then
If Cells(row, 1).Value = "mean" Then
'Calculate the column height to average over....
avgColHeight = row - lastMeanRow - 1
'...and loop through each of the columns....
'(including i and j to add average)
For col = 3 To 10
'....inserting the averaging formula.
Cells(row, col).Value = "=AVERAGE(R[-" & avgColHeight & "]C:R[-1]C)"
Next col
'Then increment the counter to keep track of the number of means
meanCounter = meanCounter + 1
'If the number of means is a multiple of 6 then
If (meanCounter Mod 6 = 0) Then
'insert the "Area" and "150" strings
Cells(row + 2, 1).Value = "Area"
Cells(row + 3, 1).Value = "150"
areaRow = row + 3
End If
'Finally change the lastMeanRow to the mean row we have just processed.
lastMeanRow = row
End If
'Do it again until we reach the end of the data
Next row
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
I also noticed your point on the value of area changing periodically. Writing this programatically, as above, will aloow you to add some logic over the value of "Area" and when it changes.
You clearly have a long list of data and want to automate the creation of the rows and formulas you describe.
It is possible write VBA to scan through the data and modify the formulas etc but first I would question if this is the best approach to give you what you need.
Excel has a feature called "pivot tables" which essentially allows you to summerise data in a list.
for instance if the list had one row for each city in the world and gave the population in the city, and a column gave which country it was in. A pivot table could be used to create the average population for a country of the countries cities. I suspect you are doing this sort of thing.
If you don't know about pivot tables you should find out about them. See here
In your case your mean row is summeriseing data in the rows above it. To use pivot tables you would have to have a column that defined which group each row is in. You pivot table would sue this column as a row summary and you would then create the average for all the other column.
#Nathalie. It's hard to help without knowing more. eg Is the data delivered with the mean text already inserted. It looks like column A has a number the represent the row number within the group (and this could be used by a formula to create the "Group Name" column you need for pivot tables.
You can get the pivot tables to do the area adjustment by:
Creating a new set of columns which contains formulas that cause the values in columns C to J to be copied except for when it is the 6th set of data in which case you adjust the values in C to J accordingly).
You probably need to introduce columns that:
A. give the "group name"
B. give a count of which group it is in so every 6th you can do the adjustment you need.
4 by using pivot tables and basic techniques you will find it easie rot update the refresh the data, should you need to.
I have multiple spreadsheets that each roughly look like this:
I'm trying to find a way to go through each of the SPEAKER HEADERS in Row 1, and summarize the scores that are associated with the corresponding survey question ("Was the CONTENT good? Was the SPEAKER relevant? What the DELIVERY good?) grouped by color.
I can't think of a clever way of doing this automatically.
I can get the RANGE SPANS of the Merged Cells like this:
For Each Cell In src_sheet.UsedRange.Cells
If Cell.Row = 1 And IsEmpty(Cell) = False Then
MsgBox Cell.MergeArea.Address
End If
Next
I then need to iterate over the range provided by the address, getting the numerical values in all the rows BELOW that range.
For example, running the current macro produces this:
I need to take $C$1:$E$1 and run a for loop that say FROM C1 to E1 average all the numbers in the rows below it. I have no idea how to do this.
I was thinking about augmenting the selection in include everything used
Is there a better way to do this?
This is the tragically bad way I'm doing it now (which I'm quite proud of on account of being new to excel):
For Each Cell In src_sheet.UsedRange.Cells
If Cell.Row = 1 And IsEmpty(Cell) = False Then
Set rng = Range(Cell.MergeArea.Address) 'Equal to the Address of the Merged Area
startLetter = Mid(rng.Address, 2, 1) 'Gets letter from MergeArea Address
endLetter = Mid(rng.Address, 7, 1) 'Gets letter from MergeArea Address
On Error GoTo ErrHandler:
Set superRange = Range(startLetter & ":" & endLetter)
ErrHandler:
endLetter = startLetter
Set superRange = Range(startLetter & ":" & endLetter)
Resume Next
superRange.Select
MsgBox Application.Average(Selection)
In order to get rid of the error you are having, you need to change:
Set rng = Cell.MergeArea.Address
to
Set rng = Range(Cell.MergeArea.Address)
Ideally, this data would be better stored in a database so that it could be queried easily. If that's not an option, then the way you are going at it in Excel is as valid as most any other approach.
EDIT
Once you obtain the address of the left-most column for each of your speakers, you can loop through each column to obtain averages.
'Number of columns in the current speaker's range.
numColumns = rng.Columns.Count
'First row containing data.
currentRow = 4
'First column containing data.
firstColumn = rng.Column
'Loop through each column.
For col = firstColumn to firstColumn + (numColumns -1)
totalValue = 0
'Loop through each row.
Do While Cells(currentRow,col).value <> ""
totalValue = totalValue + Cells(currentRow,col).Value
currentRow = currentRow + 1
Loop
averageValue = totalValue / (currentRow - 3)
'Reset the currentRow value to the top of the data area.
currentRow = 4
'Do something with this average value before moving on to the next column.
Next
If you don't know what row is the start of your data, you can keep checking every row below rng.Row until you hit a numeric value.
The method above assumes that you have no blank entries in your data area. If you have blank entries, then you should either sort the data prior to running this code, or you would need to know how many rows you must check for data values.
