I have 2 qns that should be performed in VBA Code.
1. I want to count the total number of times a particular string has repeated for more than 40 unique values in a column.how this can be achieved.
for eg- unique values like Apple, banana, grapes (40 more unique values) are repeated in a column and I want the count of individual string like this.
Apple- 30 times repeated
banana- 4 times repeated.
after taking the total number of each strings,I want to count them with a specific criteria.
Eg- count apple, only if the cost if above 40
count grapes, only if the cost if above 40
can any1 pls help on this, how to implement this in VBA Code.
The following code adds all strings from Column A into a collection structure, sorts it while counting each unique value and stores each unique value and the corresponding sum in a dictionary structure. The results are then printed to the Immediate window. Hope this helps.
Sub main()
'variables
Dim colCollection As New Collection
Dim x, q As Variant
Dim cellValue As String
Dim j, i, count As Integer
Dim numbers As New Scripting.Dictionary 'NOTE: add microsoft scripting Runtime Ref
x = 1 'collections start at 1
While Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(x, "A").Value <> "" 'while cell is not empty
cellValue = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(x, "A").Value 'store string value from cell
colCollection.Add (cellValue) ' add entry from cell to collection
x = x + 1 'increment
Wend
'Sort collection (bubbble sort) and record number of each unique item
For i = colCollection.count To 2 Step -1 'count down from collection
For j = 1 To i - 1
'bubble up item
If colCollection(j) > colCollection(j + 1) Then
colCollection.Add colCollection(j), After:=j + 1
colCollection.Remove j
End If
Next j
'finding count of unique item
If i <> colCollection.count Then 'if not at last item (can't compare 2 items when only given 1)
If i = 2 Then 'if at end
numbers.Add colCollection(i), count + 3 'add sum to dictionary with corresponding key value
Else
If StrComp(colCollection(i + 1), colCollection(i), 1) = 0 Then 'if same string
count = count + 1 'increment count
Else
numbers.Add colCollection(i + 1), count + 1 'add sum to dictionary with corresponding key value
count = 0 'reset count
End If
End If
End If
Next i
'loop through dictionary
For Each q In numbers.Keys
Debug.Print q & "- " & numbers.Item(q); " times repeated."
Next

I am creating a third party add in for my CAD program that has a sub in it that goes through a drawing and finds all the parts lists (BOMS), if any items in the parts list are shared between the BOM (1 part being used in 2 weldments for example) then it changes the item number of the second instance to be that of the first instance. It does this by comparing full file names between the two values. When they match change the number to that of the matcher. I have got this to work but it runs a little slow because for a 100 item BOM each item is compared to 100 and thus that takes a little longer then I would like (about 60seconds to run). After thinking about it I realized I did not need to compare each item to all the items, I just needed to compare until it found a duplicate and then exit the search loop and go to the next value. Example being Item 1 does not need to compare to the rest of the 99 values because even if it does have a match in position 100 I do not want to change item 1s number to that of item 100. I want to change item 100 to that of 1(ie change the duplpicate to that of the first encountered double). For my code however I am having trouble exiting the comparison for loops which is causing me trouble. An example of the trouble is this:
I have 3 BOMs, each one shares Part X, and is numbered 1 in BOM 1, 4 in BOM 2, and 7 in BOM 3. when I run my button because I cannot get it to leave the comparison loop once it finds it first match all the Part X's ended up getting item number 7 from BOM 3 because it is the last instance. (I can get this to do what I want by stepping through my for loops backwards and thus everything ends up as the top most occurrence, but I would like to get my exit fors working because it saves me on unnecessary comparisons)
How do I go about breaking out of the nested for loops using an if conditional?
Here is my current code:

For escape from nested for loop you can use GoTo and specify where.
Sub GoToTest()
Dim a, b, c As Integer
For a = 0 To 1000 Step 100
For b = 0 To 100 Step 10
For c = 0 To 10
Debug.Print vbTab & b + c
If b + c = 12 Then
GoTo nextValueForA
End If
Next
Next
nextValueForA:
Debug.Print a + b + c
Next
End Sub
Here are a few examples that demonstrate (1) breaking out of (exiting) a loop and (2) finding the values in arrays.
The intersection of 2 arrays example can be modified to meet your need to "Create a comparison loop to go through the drawing that checks the oRefPart against other BOM items and see if there is a match." Note, you may find multiple matches between 2 arrays.
Option Explicit
Option Base 0
' Example - break out of loop when condition met.
Public Sub ExitLoopExample()
Dim i As Integer, j As Integer
' let's loop 101 times
For i = 0 To 100:
j = i * 2
'Print the current loop number to the Immediate window
Debug.Print i, j
' Let's decide to break out of the loop is some
' condition is met. In this example, we exit
' the loop if j>=10. However, any condition can
' be used.
If j >= 10 Then Exit For
Next i
End Sub
' Example - break out of inner loop when condition met.
Public Sub ExitLoopExample2()
Dim i As Integer, j As Integer
For i = 1 To 5:
For j = 1 To 5
Debug.Print i, j
' if j >= 2 then, exit the inner loop.
If j >= 2 Then Exit For

This question seems to be asked many times, but I have some troubles with it. The task is given some number of cells in column (lets say it column A) split text in each cell (the delimiter is a space " ") and print all obtained words in another column (lets say column C).
After reading some answers I wrote the following code:
Sub splitting()
Dim tmp As Collection
Dim i As Integer, j As Integer
For i = 0 To 3
tmp.Add split(Cells(i + 1, 1).Value, " ")
Next i
For j = 0 To tmp.Count
Cells(j + 1, 3).Value = tmp(j)
Next j
End Sub
Here I use collection instead of array to have an ability of dynamical rearranging (add new item each time in a loop). I also suppose that the text is only in the first four rows just to test.
It gives me an error
Run-time error '91': Object variable or With block variable is not set
What am I doing wrong and how should I do it in a proper way?
To summarize all the issues noted in comments, see the example below:
Input:
one two three four five
six seven eight nine
ten eleven twelve
Sub splitting()
Dim tmp As Collection
Dim i As Integer, j As Integer, k As Integer
Set tmp = New Collection
For i = 1 To 3
tmp.Add Split(Cells(i, 1).Value, " ")
Next i
For j = 1 To tmp.Count
For k = 0 To UBound(tmp(j))
Debug.Print tmp(j)(k)
Next k
Next j
End Sub
Output:
one
two
three
four
five
six
seven
eight
nine
ten
eleven

Your collection is declared but not initialized. Try changing to:
Dim tmp As New Collection
I am not familiar with using macro's, but I think that what I would like excel to perform is best handled with a macro. So I can use all the input you may have!
I have these headers;
ID Tag Pen Sex Weight Class Inside range
With 450 rows of data. Based on the distribution of the weight data, I have in two other columns (class and number) the number of rows I want to select within each class. The selected rows must have the value "Yes" in the column "Inside range".
I want to randomly select the rows, based on the number needed for each class, and copy these rows to a new sheet. It sums up to 30 rows in the new sheet.
I hope you have a suggestion how to complete this action!
can you try the following, you will need to add a reference to Microsoft Scripting Runtime library:
Const rowCount = 450
Public Sub copyRows()
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer
Dim classes As Scripting.Dictionary
Dim source As Worksheet
Dim colNumber As Integer
Dim colClassName as Integer
Dim colInsideRange As Integer
Dim allSelected As Boolean
Dim randomRow as Integer
Dim sumRemaining as Integer
allSelected = False
Set source = Worksheets("YourWorksheetName")
colClassName = 6 'this is the column number where class names are entered. I am assuming 6
colNumber = 7 'this is the column number where number of rows to be selected are entered. I am assuming 7
colInsideRange = 8 'this is the column number where "Inside Range" values are entered. I am assuming 9
For i = 2 to rowCount + 1 'assuming you have a header row
classes(CStr(source.Cells(i, colClassName))) = CInt(source.cells(i, colNumber)
Next i
Do until allSelected
Randomize
randomRow = Int ((Rnd * 450) + 2) 'assuming you have a header row, + 1 if you don't
If classes(CStr(source.Cells(randomRow, colClassName))) = 0 Then
With classes
sumRemaining = 0
For j = 1 to .Count - 1
sumRemaining = sumRemaining + .Items(j)
If sumRemaining > 0 Then Exit For
Next j
allSelected = (sumRemaining = 0)
End With
Else
source.Cells(randomRow, colInsideRange) = "Yes"
classes(CStr(source.Cells(randomRow, colClassName))) = classes(CStr(source.Cells(randomRow, colClassName))) - 1
End If
Loop
'Enter your code to copy rows with "Inside Range" = "Yes"
End Sub
Sorry if there are some errors or typos, I wrote from my mobile phone.
I am pulling out values from a variable number of sheets within excel (fifth to third from last), each of which contains a variable number of "entries". E.G. "Entry 1" has values I want in columns F and H. "Entry 2" has values I want in columns K and M, etc. (These are also referred to as "quotes" in the comments for the code).
I'm using a For loop within a For loop to accomplish this. The issue I'm having is that each recursion of the "parent" for loop is over-writing the entries created in the previous recursion. My code illustrates:
Sub ListSheets()
' Creating an integer that specifies the size of the arrays of column entries
' and thus the maximum number of quotes.

'Resizing these arrays. This resize sets the maximum number of quotes per sheet to
'1000.
array_size = 1000

'Setting the first entries as the corresponding column indexes of H and F
'respectively.

RDP_Cols_Array(1, 1) = 6
' Filling both arrays with column indexes of quotes. In both cases the row number is
'the same for each quote and thus
' does not need to be specified for each entry.
For intLoop = 2 To 1000
Class_Cols_Array(intLoop, 1) = Class_Cols_Array(intLoop - 1, 1) + 5
RDP_Cols_Array(intLoop, 1) = RDP_Cols_Array(intLoop - 1, 1) + 5

Looking at the for loop within a for loop at the bottom, I need to find a way to keep the iteration of the RHS of the equation(s). E.G. I need the i value to be the same for,
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(sheet_number).Cells(6, Class_Cols_Array(i, 1))
whereas I need the i on the LHS of the equation to also increase with each run of the "parent" for loop. I.E. I need the i to be the "number of entries thus far" + i for
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(sheet_number).Cells(6, Class_Cols_Array(i, 1))
I can't figure out a way to do this. Is there perhaps a way to append an array rather than assigning values to individual elements? (This sounds really simple but I've searched and not been able to find a genuine append method, only loops of assigning to elements).
Many thanks in advance.

Is there a way to merge multiple records then display only the highest value for each column? Example: A2:A25=names, B2=Grade1, C2=Grade2...etc.
First I removed duplicates in case there are exact duplicates. Then I sort on Name.
Can something be added to this code, based on column A-names, to display each name once with the highest value from each column?
=IF(B2="","Empty",IF(B2="High","High",IF(B2="Med","Med",IF(B2="Low","Low",""))))
Data Example
A1:name B1:Grade1 C1:Grade2...etc
A2:Joe B2:High C3:Low
A3:Joe B3:Med C3:High
A4:Dan B4:Low C4:Med
A5:Dan B5:Low C5:Low
__Results: Joe Grade1=high Grade2=high, Dan: Grade1=Low Grade2=Med
Record an Excel macro. Select first column. Click advanced filter.Choose copy to location and select a new column say X. Enable unique filter. Now click Ok. Now look at vba source to get the code to get unique elements in a column. Now assign Low as 0, Med as 1, High as 2 . loop through the rows and find the maximum grade1 , maximum grade2 etc corresponding to each element in column X and populate columns Y,Z etc. As and when you find a new maximum replace the existing. Now you will have the required data in columns X,Y,Z. Loop through them again and display in the format what you needed.
Decided to try VBA code for this one. It's a bit bruitish, but gets the job done.
Took a shortcut and made columns b and c numbers rather than strings. You could do a lookup function on the spreadsheet to make that conversion, or add an extra check in the code.
