Split Worksheets - vba

Currently this macro splits worksheets based on a cell.
It works well, however I am putting it as a button on a different page but this selects the active page, I want it to run this macro on a specific sheet.
Sub SplitToWorksheets_step4()
'Splits the workbook into different tabs
Dim ColHead As String
Dim ColHeadCell As Range
Dim icol As Integer
Dim iRow As Long 'row index on Fan Data sheet
Dim Lrow As Integer 'row index on individual destination sheet
Dim Dsheet As Worksheet 'destination worksheet
Dim Fsheet As Worksheet 'fan data worksheet (assumed active)
Again:
'ColHead = Worksheets("Diversion Report") 'this ask the user to enter a colunm name
ColHead = InputBox("Enter Column Heading", "Identify Column", [c1].Value) 'this ask the user to enter a colunm name
If ColHead = "" Then Exit Sub
Set ColHeadCell = Rows(1).Find(ColHead, LookAt:=xlWhole)
If ColHeadCell Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "Heading not found in row 1"
GoTo Again
End If
Set Fsheet = ActiveSheet
icol = ColHeadCell.Column
'loop through values in selected column
For iRow = 2 To Fsheet.Cells(65536, icol).End(xlUp).Row
If Not SheetExists(CStr(Fsheet.Cells(iRow, icol).Value)) Then
Set Dsheet = Worksheets.Add(after:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count))
Dsheet.Name = CStr(Fsheet.Cells(iRow, icol).Value)
Fsheet.Rows(1).Copy Destination:=Dsheet.Rows(1)
Else
Set Dsheet = Worksheets(CStr(Fsheet.Cells(iRow, icol).Value))
End If
Lrow = Dsheet.Cells(65536, icol).End(xlUp).Row
Fsheet.Rows(iRow).Copy Destination:=Dsheet.Rows(Lrow + 1)
Next iRow
End Sub
Function SheetExists(SheetId As Variant) As Boolean
' This function checks whether a sheet (can be a worksheet,
' chart sheet, dialog sheet, etc.) exists, and returns
' True if it exists, False otherwise. SheetId can be either
' a sheet name string or an integer number. For example:
' If SheetExists(3) Then Sheets(3).Delete
' deletes the third worksheet in the workbook, if it exists.
' Similarly,
' If SheetExists("Annual Budget") Then Sheets("Annual Budget").Delete
' deletes the sheet named "Annual Budget", if it exists.
Dim sh As Object
On Error GoTo NoSuch
Set sh = Sheets(SheetId)
SheetExists = True
Exit Function
NoSuch:
If Err = 9 Then SheetExists = False Else Stop
End Function

Change your Sub to:
Sub SplitToWorksheets_step4(SheetName as String)
and in the line:
Set Fsheet = ActiveSheet
to:
Set Fsheet = Worksheets(SheetName)

on a different page but this selects the active page, I want it to run
this macro on a specific sheet.
Well that is simple enough.
Set your Worksheet Object to a specific Sheet.Name - eg:
Dim Fsheet As Worksheet: Set Fsheet = Sheets("Your sheet name")
In a more practical usage, you could for example pass the sheet name as a procedure argument:
Private Sub SplitToWorksheets_step4(ByVal sheetName as String)
Dim fsheet as Worksheet: Set fsheet = Sheets(sheetName)
' ... do something
End Sub
Last but not least a practical way to apply a macro for every Worksheet:
Private Sub for_every_ws()
Dim ws as Worksheet
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Sheets
ws.Range("A1") = "I was here!" ' i.e.
Next ws
End Sub

Can't define workheet in VBA

Going crazy here. I use this definition of worksheet all the time. Copied every string to avoid typing errors. Still, the code below produces "Nothing" when I try to set FR worksheet. Pls help!
Sub FindReplace()
Dim FRep As Worksheet
Dim c As Range
Dim cText As TextBox
Dim i As Integer
Set FRep = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("FindReplace")
For i = 1 To 23
cText = FRep.Cells(i, 3).Text
FRep.Cells(i, 2).NumberFormat = "#"
FRep.Cells(i, 2).Value = cText
Next i
The code as is seems correct. Make sure that "FindReplace" worksheet is in ThisWorkbook.
Also, you can try to get "FindReplace" worksheet by CodeName instead of by the name of the sheet. The advantage is that if the user changes the name of the worksheet, the CodeName will remain the same and you won't need to update your code to the new worksheet name.
Public Function GetWsFromCodeName(codeName As String, wb As Workbook) As Worksheet
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In wb.Worksheets
If ws.CodeName = codeName Then
Set GetWsFromCodeName = ws
Exit For
End If
Next ws
End Function
Add this function in your code:
Sub FindReplace()
Dim FRep As Worksheet
Set FRep = GetWsFromCodeName("YourCodeName", ThisWorkbook)

VBA - Loop Each Item in Pivot Filter and Paste into new sheet

I have a challenge... I have a range in Sheet Lookup with each possible value in Pivot table filter "Owner: Full Name".
The range with the names are Sheets "Lookup" Range B2:B98. (Problem 1: This range can change as it creates this list in a different code, how to set this to a dynamic range?)
Once it filters on that i.e. value in B2 it should copy this filtered pivot into a new sheet and name the sheet after the value in b2.
Then it should "deselect" the b2 item and go to filter on value in b3 and continue.
Problem 2: Setting the filter correctly to loop and filter on each single value in the new dynamic lookup range.
Here is what I have at the moment...
Option Explicit
Dim wb As Workbook, ws, ws1, ws2 As Worksheet, PT As PivotTable, PTI As
PivotItem, PTF As PivotField, rng As Range
Sub Filter_Pivot()
Set wb = ThisWorkbook
Set ws = wb.Sheets("Copy")
Set ws1 = wb.Sheets("Lookup")
Set PT = ws.PivotTables("PivotCopy")
Set PTF = PT.PivotFields("Owner: Full Name")
For Each rng In ws1.Range("B2:B98")
With PTF
.ClearAllFilters
For Each PTI In PTF.PivotItems
PTI.Visible = (PTI.Name = rng)
Next PTI
Set ws2 = Sheets.Add
ws1.Name = PTI
.TableRange2.Copy
ws2.Range("A1").PasteSpecial
End With
Next rng
End Sub
You might be able to avoid all this and use the PivotTable.ShowPages Method. It is optimized for this sort of operation.
Note:
"Owner: Full Name" must be in the page field area at the top.
You probably want to check the sheet names don't already exist. You could do an initial loop of sheet names that will be generated from pivot and try deleting them (wrapping inside an On Error Resume Next, attempt delete, On Error GoTo 0) to ensure they don't exist first. I have shown how to do this in the second example.
Info: PivotTable.ShowPages Method
Creates a new PivotTable report for each item in the page field. Each
new report is created on a new worksheet.
Syntax expression . ShowPages( PageField )
expression A variable that represents a PivotTable object.
[Optional parameter of pageField.]
Code:
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Copy").PivotTables("PivotCopy").ShowPages "Owner: Full Name"
This will produce a sheet for each possible value in the page field "Owner: Full Name". If you don't want all of them, simply hold a list of sheet names for sheets to keep, in an array, and loop over all sheets in workbook and if not in array then delete as shown below:
① Example of looping sheets and deleting if not in array:
Option Explicit
Public Sub GeneratePivots()
Dim keepSheets(), ws As Worksheet
keepSheets = Array("FilterValue1", "FilterValue2","Lookup","Copy") '<== List of sheet names to keep
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
On Error GoTo errHand
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Copy").PivotTables("PivotCopy").ShowPages "Owner: Full Name"
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
If IsError(Application.Match(ws.Name, keepSheets, 0)) And ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Count > 1 Then
ws.Delete
End If
Next ws
errHand:
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
② Using a lookup sheet:
If you do want to still read in the sheets to keep from the Copy sheet then you can use the following (but be sure to include in the list in column B the sheet names Copy,Lookup, the filter values of interest, and any other sheet names you don't want deleted):
Code:
Option Explicit
Public Sub GeneratePivots()
Dim ws As Worksheet, lookups As Range
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Lookup")
Set lookups = .Range(.Range("B2"), .Range("B2").End(xlDown))
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(lookups) = 0 Then Exit Sub
keepSheets = lookups.Value
End With
Dim rng As Range
For Each rng In lookups
On Error Resume Next
Select Case rng.Value
Case "Lookup", "Copy" '<=Extend for sheets to keep listed in lookups that aren't generated by the pivot filtering
Case Else
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(rng.Value).Delete
End Select
On Error GoTo 0
Next rng
On Error GoTo errHand
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Copy").PivotTables("PivotCopy").ShowPages "Owner: Full Name"
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
If IsError(Application.Match(ws.Name, Application.WorksheetFunction.Index(keepSheets, 0, 1), 0)) And ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Count > 1 Then
ws.Delete
End If
Next ws
errHand:
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Example run:
You may try something like this...
Sub Filter_Pivot()
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim ws As Worksheet, ws1 As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet
Dim PT As PivotTable
Dim PTF As PivotField
Dim rng As Range
Dim lr As Long
Set wb = ThisWorkbook
Set ws = wb.Sheets("Copy")
Set ws1 = wb.Sheets("Lookup")
Set PT = ws.PivotTables("PivotCopy")
Set PTF = PT.PivotFields("Owner: Full Name")
lr = ws1.Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Row
For Each rng In ws1.Range("B2:B" & lr)
PTF.ClearAllFilters
On Error Resume Next
PTF.CurrentPage = rng.Value
If Err = 0 Then
Set ws2 = Sheets(rng.Value)
ws2.Cells.Clear
If ws2 Is Nothing Then
Set ws2 = Sheets.Add
ws2.Name = rng.Value
End If
PT.TableRange2.Copy ws2.Range("A1")
End If
PTF.ClearAllFilters
Set ws2 = Nothing
On Error GoTo 0
Next rng
End Sub

How to get the newly inserted worksheet

So I have a pivottable and in column C there is field for which I am showing details for each record using this
For i=7 to 10
DATA.Range("C" & i).ShowDetail = True
Set wN = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1)
Next i
Now it works fine but the problem is Set wN = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1) assigns the wN the first worksheet but DATA.Range("C" & i).ShowDetail = True sometimes inserts the new worksheet which has the details at 1st or 2nd position. Now I want to know which was the new worksheet which was inserted and assign wN to it.
Do I have to make an array or list which keeps record of existing worksheets and then check which is the new one everytime? or there is an easy way to determine which is the newest worksheet in an workbook irrespective of the position.
Look at the Activesheet. ShowDetail creates the new sheet and activates it - so Set wn=ActiveSheet should work.
Sub Test()
Dim c As Range
Dim wrkSht As Worksheet
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet2").PivotTables(1)
For Each c In .DataBodyRange.Resize(, 1)
c.ShowDetail = True
Set wrkSht = ActiveSheet
Debug.Print wrkSht.Name
Next c
End With
End Sub
This link to Jon Peltiers page on Pivot Tables should be a massive help... https://peltiertech.com/referencing-pivot-table-ranges-in-vba/
The code shown does not add a worksheet, it sets wN to whatever sheet has index 1 (The second sheet created).
Try wN.Name = "C"& i & " field" to help figure out when each sheet is being created.
Open a new Workbook. Then run this code a few times:
Option Explicit
Public Sub TestMe()
Dim wsNew As Worksheet
Worksheets.Add After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)
Set wsNew = Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)
Debug.Print wsNew.Name
End Sub
You would see, that wsNew is always the last one added. Thus with Worksheetes(Worksheets.Count) you may access it.
Edit:
If you want to know the name of the last added Worksheet, without adding After:, then use collection to remember all the worksheets you had before and simply compare them with the new collection. Run this code a few times:
Option Explicit
Public Sub TestMe()
Dim wsCollection As New Collection
Dim lngCounter As Long
Dim strName As String
Dim blnNameFound As Boolean
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In Worksheets
wsCollection.Add ws.Name
Next ws
Worksheets.Add
For Each ws In Worksheets
blnNameFound = False
For lngCounter = 1 To wsCollection.Count
If wsCollection.Item(lngCounter) = ws.Name Then
blnNameFound = True
End If
Next lngCounter
If Not blnNameFound Then Debug.Print ws.Name
Next ws
End Sub
The complexity is O².

Excel VBA activate worksheet

I need to activate a specific worksheet. The code is meant to create worksheets with a specif name. I need to paste something from a another worksheet into all these newly created worksheets. The code that I'm using is below. But I'm having a hard time activating the newly created worksheet to paste what I want.
Sub octo()
'Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim Ki As Range
Dim ListSh As Range
Workbooks.Open ("C:\Users\Dash\Dropbox\Randika\Misc\Emmash timesheets\timesheet.xlsx")
With Worksheets("PPE 05-17-15")
Set ListSh = .Range("B4:B" & .Cells(.Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row)
End With
On Error Resume Next
For Each Ki In ListSh
If Len(Trim(Ki.Value)) > 0 Then
If Len(Worksheets(Ki.Value).Name) = 0 Then
Worksheets.Add(After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)).Name = Ki.Value
'open template
Workbooks.Open ("C:\Users\Dash\Dropbox\Randika\Misc\Emmash timesheets\octo_template.xls")
Range("A1:L31").Select
Selection.Copy
Worksheets(Ki.Value).Activate
If ThisWorkbook.Saved = False Then
ThisWorkbook.Save
End If
End If
End If
Next Ki
End Sub
Both Workbooks.Open and Worksheets.Add return references to the opened and added objects, which you can use to directly access and modify them - and in your case, to paste data.
Example:
Dim oSourceSheet As Worksheet
Dim oTargetSheet As Worksheet
Set oSourceSheet = Sheet1 'Set reference to any sheet, Sheet1 in my example
Set oTargetSheet = Worksheets.Add(After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count))
oSourceSheet.Range("A1:L31").Copy
oTargetSheet.Paste
Set oSourceSheet = Nothing
Set oTargetSheet = Nothing
I think that is what you need. As what been mentioned by chris, there is no need Activate or Select. Hope the following code solve your problem.
Option Explicit
Dim MyTemplateWorkbook As Workbook
Dim MyDataWorkbook As Workbook
Dim MyTemplateWorksheet As Worksheet
Dim MyDataWorksheet As Worksheet
Dim MyNewDataWorksheet As Worksheet
Dim CurrentRange As Range
Dim ListRange As Range
Sub AddWSAndGetData()
Set MyTemplateWorkbook = Workbooks.Open("C:\Users\lengkgan\Desktop\Testing\MyTemplate.xlsx")
Set MyTemplateWorksheet = MyTemplateWorkbook.Sheets("Template")
Set MyDataWorkbook = Workbooks.Open("C:\Users\lengkgan\Desktop\Testing\MyData1.xlsx")
Set MyDataWorksheet = MyDataWorkbook.Sheets("PPE 05-17-15")
Set ListRange = MyDataWorksheet.Range("B4:B" & MyDataWorksheet.Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row)
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
On Error Resume Next
For Each CurrentRange In ListRange
If Len(Trim(CurrentRange.Value)) > 0 Then
If Len(MyDataWorksheet(CurrentRange.Value).Name) = 0 Then
Worksheets.Add(After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)).Name = CurrentRange.Value
Set MyNewDataWorksheet = MyDataWorkbook.Sheets(ActiveSheet.Name)
MyNewDataWorksheet.Range("A1:L31").Value = MyTemplateWorksheet.Range("A1:L31").Value
If MyDataWorkbook.Saved = False Then
MyDataWorkbook.Save
End If
End If
End If
Next CurrentRange
MyTemplateWorkbook.Close (False) 'Close the template without saving
End Sub

How do i select worksheet using an inputbox in vba

I am trying to select a worksheet every time when i open up a workbook using an inputbox in VBA. here is my code for opening a workbook but after i open up my workbook, how do i select a worksheet inside that workbook?
Sub button7_click()
dim wb as string
dim ss as string
wb = Application.GetOpenFilename
if wb <> "False" Then Workbooks.Open wb
End sub
Assuming "Sheet1" is the name of the sheet that you want to select...
Workbooks(wb).Sheets("Sheet1").Select
EDIT: And you can use something like this to get a variable sheet name from an InputBox. In its simplest form...
Dim Result As String
Result = InputBox("Provide a sheet name.")
Workbooks(wb).Sheets(Result).Select
...but I would add some error handling into this also to prevent errors from blanks, misspelled or invalid sheet names.
Let's say you have a "normal", blank Excel workbook with sheets "Sheet1", "Sheet2" and "Sheet3". Now, when the workbook opens, let's assume you want to activate (not select, as that's different) the sheet called "Sheet2".
In your workbook's ThisWorkbook module, add this code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet2").Activate
End Sub
Make sure this code is pasted inside of the ThisWorkbook object and not in a Module, Form, or Sheet object.
Save and exit the workbook. When you re-open it, "Sheet2" will be the active sheet.
Here is the final code if anyone wants it.
Multiple selections are not quite possible , as the copied worksheet only copies across and increments the largest value of the range selected rather than all the cells selected individually ....
Sub CopyAndIncrement()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim Count As Integer
Dim Rng As Range
Dim myValue As Integer
Dim wsName As String
wsName = InputBox("Provide the EXACT sheet name you want to copy.")
'error handling loop for Worksheet name
For p = 1 To Worksheets.Count
If Worksheets(p).Name = wsName Then
exists = True
End If
Next p
If Not exists Then
While exists = False
wsName = InputBox("Sheet not found re-enter name.")
For p = 1 To Worksheets.Count
If Worksheets(p).Name = wsName Then
exists = True
End If
Next p
Wend
End If
Set Rng = Application.InputBox( _
Title:="Increment your worksheet", _
Prompt:="Select a cell(s) you want to increment", _
Type:=8)
On Error GoTo 0
If Rng Is Nothing Then Exit Sub 'Test to ensure User Did not cancel
'Set Rng = Rng.Cells(1, 1) 'Set Variable to first cell in user's input (ensuring only
'1 cell) >> commenting this can give multiple selections
myValue = InputBox("How many time do you want it to increment? Give me the number ")
Do While Count < myValue
For Each ws In Worksheets ' this loop selects the last sheet in the workbook
LastWs = ws.Name
i = ws.Range(Rng.Address).Value
If i > j Then
j = i
End If
Next
Sheets(wsName).Select
Sheets(wsName).Copy After:=Sheets(LastWs)
ActiveSheet.Range(Rng.Address).Value = j + 1
Count = Count + 1
Loop
End Sub
