I'm trying to copy formulas with relative row and column names.
I have base column with 10 formulas and I'm trying to copy formula 5 times on columns on the right.
So for example in base column i have this formula
=A1+B1 and i want to make next cell this =B1+C1 next =C1+D1 and so on.
I have this code
For i = 1 To Range("B1").Value
For j = 1 To 10
Sheet2.Cells(5 + j, 2 + i).FormulaR1C1 = "=c[-1]"
Next j
Next i
But this just copies value from left cell
It would be easy if the formulas were same but they are different. So im trying to find a way to dynamically reference always left cell.
This is one of the real formulas
='Balance sheet'!B13*360/'P&L'!B2
I want next cell to be
='Balance sheet'!C13*360/'P&L'!C2
And with code i have now next cell is =B3
If you want to copy a formula to right, that can be done with a fill operation. So with your formula in a cell defined by your base row and base column, and with it using relative addressing as in your question, merely:
Option Explicit
Sub foo()
Const lBaseColumn As Long = 3
Const lBaseRow As Long = 6
Const lRpts As Long = 10
Cells(lBaseRow, lBaseColumn).Resize(columnsize:=lRpts).FillRight
End Sub
You should note that you can FillRight from multiple rows at once, if that is what you need to do. The below would fill C6:C10 through to L6:L10
Option Explicit
Sub foo()
Const lBaseColumn As Long = 3
Const lBaseRow As Long = 6
Const lColRpts As Long = 10
Const lRows As Long = 5
Cells(lBaseRow, lBaseColumn).Resize(rowsize:=lRows, columnsize:=lColRpts).FillRight
End Sub
these two lines will copy formula / contents from left cell and copy in the reference cell. this will also copy the formula with relative reference
Range(refCellID).Offset(0,-1).Copy
Range(refCellID).PasteSpecial

I am new in VBA and learning on my own. I was able to build a code that searches for a value (previously define as "Number") on all sheets and for those sheets that have the specific value in an specific cell it will copy a range from the sheet and then paste it in a new worksheet. It is worth saying that I did not use copy and paste (see code below). The code works just fine, but I would like the new sheet to keep the same formatting as the source. I have tried a couple of things, but the stuff that works means I have to use Copy/Paste type coding, which later in the code gives me problems since it changes the ActiveSheet. Other attempts do not work. In addition I would like to have a fix column width for the ranges that are paste into the new sheet.
A piece of the code in question is below. FYI = the variable Number is defined earlier in the code. Also, earlier in the code I create the new sheet.
My Questions:
Foe the code below, is there a way to keep the formatting from the source, without having to use "copy" and "paste" type coding.
To the code below, can I somehow fix the width of the columns where the new staff are going to be paste?
If you have a better, more elegant way to write the code, I would appreciate it.
For k = 1 To wscount - 1
If Worksheets(k).Range("F2").Value = Number Then
j = j + 1
Worksheets(wscount + 1).Range(Cells(1, 1 + j), Cells(100, 1 + j)).Value = Worksheets(k).Range("F1:F100").Value
End If
Next
You can assign property value of the source cell to target cell just like what you do with value property.
Option Explicit
Public Sub CopyValueAndFormat()
For k = 1 To wscount - 1
If Worksheets(k).Range("F2").Value = Number Then
j = j + 1
Worksheets(wscount + 1).Range(Cells(1, 1 + j), Cells(100, 1 + j)).Value = Worksheets(k).Range("F1:F100").Value
'call setFormat method
setFormat Worksheets(k).Range("F1:F100"), Worksheets(wscount + 1).Range(Cells(1, 1 + j), Cells(100, 1 + j))
End If
Next
End Sub
Private Sub setFormat(source As Range, target As Range)
'set target format equal to source format
With target
.Value = source.Value
.Interior.Color = source.Interior.Color
.Font.FontStyle = source.Font.FontStyle
'add others property to format
'call AutoFit method to set column width
.EntireColumn.AutoFit
End With
End Sub
How do i write the following code as a loop. I want to copy values from a table in sheet 4 in a row from range (b:17:L17"). is there a more efficient way to do it with loops ?
ActiveSheet.Range("B17").Value = Sheets(4).Range("G8")
ActiveSheet.Range("C17").Value = Sheets(4).Range("G9")
ActiveSheet.Range("D17").Value = Sheets(4).Range("G10")
ActiveSheet.Range("E17").Value = Sheets(4).Range("G11")
ActiveSheet.Range("F17").Value = Sheets(4).Range("G12")
ActiveSheet.Range("G17").Value = Sheets(4).Range("G13")
ActiveSheet.Range("H17").Value = Sheets(4).Range("G14")
ActiveSheet.Range("I17").Value = Sheets(4).Range("G15")
ActiveSheet.Range("J17").Value = Sheets(4).Range("G16")
ActiveSheet.Range("K17").Value = Sheets(4).Range("G17")
ActiveSheet.Range("L17").Value = Sheets(4).Range("G18")
Yes, there is:
ActiveSheet.Range("B17:L17").Value = Application.Transpose(Sheets(4).Range("G8:G18").Value)
You can, using something like this (VB.Net, but may copy easily to VBA):
Dim cell as Integer, c as Integer
cell = 8
For c = 66 To 76
ActiveSheet.Range(Chr(c) & "17").Value = Sheets(4).Range("G" & cell)
cell = cell + 1
Next
The Chr() function gets the character associated with the character code (66-76), and then this value is concatenated with the string "17" to form a complete cell name ("B17", "C17", ...)
I am also incrementing the cell number for G at the same time.
Use this if you really want to use a loop - but there could be better ways, like the answer given by #A.S.H
Solution explanation:
Establish your rules! What is changing in the range for active sheet? The column is going to grow as the for/to cycle does! So, we should sum that to it. What is the another thing that is going to increment? The Range in the other side of the '=' so, by setting an algorithm, we may say that the row is const in the Activesheet range and the column is the on variable on the other side.
Solution:
Sub Test()
Const TotalInteractions As Long = 11
Dim CounterInteractions As Long
For CounterInteractions = 1 To TotalInteractions
'where 1 is column A so when it starts the cycle would be B,C and so on
'where 7 is the row to start so when it begins it would became 8,9 and so on for column G
ActiveSheet.Cells(17, 1 + CounterInteractions).Value = Sheets(4).Cells(7 + CounterInteractions, 7)
Next CounterInteractions
End Sub
This is probably your most efficient solution in a with statement:
Sub LoopExample()
Sheets("Sheet4").Range("G8:G18").Copy
Sheets("Sheet2").Range("B17").PasteSpecial xlPasteValues, Transpose:=True
End Sub
I have a large data set which I need to manipulate and create individual worksheets. Within column B all cells which are coloured Green I would like to make a new worksheet for. Please see screen shot.
For example I would like to create worksheets titled "Shopping" & "Retail". Once the worksheet is created, I would then like to copy all the data between the "worksheet title" (Green Cells) from columns ("B:C") & ("AI:BH") Please see screen shot below for expected output;
The code I have so far is below as you can see it is not complete as I do not know how I would go about extracting data between the "Green Cells".
Sub wrksheetadd()
Dim r As Range
Dim i As Long
Dim LR As Long
Worksheets("RING Phased").Select
LR = Range("B65536").End(xlUp).Row
Set r = Range("B12:B" & (LR))
For i = r.Rows.Count To 1 Step -1
With r.Cells(i, 1)
If .DisplayFormat.Interior.ColorIndex = 35 Then
MsgBox i
Worksheets.Add(After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)).Name = Cells (i,1).Value
Worksheets("RING Phased").Select
End If
End With
Next i
End Sub
Any help around this would be much appreciated.
Sorry for taking a while to get back to this, I've been somewhat busy the last few days, so I haven't had much time to be on StackOverflow.
Anyway, the way I'd go about this would be to store all the found values in an array, and then loop through that array in order to find the distance between them.
The following code works for me, using some very simplified data, but I think the principle is sound:
Option Explicit
Option Base 0
Sub wrksheetadd()
Dim r As Range, c As Range
Dim i As Long: i = 0
Dim cells_with_color() As Range: ReDim cells_with_color(1)
With Worksheets("RING Phased")
' Since it doesn't seem like the first cell you want to copy from is colored, hardcode that location here.
' This also saves us from having to test if the array is empty later.
Set cells_with_color(i) = .Range("B12")
i = i + 1
Set r = Range(.Range("B13"), .Range("B" & .Cells.Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
' Put all the cells with color in the defined range into the array
For Each c In r
If c.DisplayFormat.Interior.ColorIndex = 35 Then
If i > UBound(cells_with_color) Then
ReDim Preserve cells_with_color(UBound(cells_with_color) + 1)
End If
Set cells_with_color(i) = c
i = i + 1
End If
Next
' Loop through the array, and copy from the previous range value to the current one into a new worksheet
' Reset counter first, we start at 1, since the first range-value (0 in the array) is just the start of where we started checking from
' (Hmm, reusing variables may be bad practice >_>)
i = 1
While i <= UBound(cells_with_color)
Worksheets.Add(After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)).Name = cells_with_color(i).Value
' Set the range to copy - we could just do this in the copy-statement, but hopefully this makes it slightly easier to read
Set r = .Rows(CStr(cells_with_color(i - 1).Row) + 1 & ":" & CStr(cells_with_color(i).Row))
' Change the destination to whereever you want it on the new sheet. I think it has to be in column one, though, since we copy entire rows.
' If you want to refine it a bit, just change whatever you set r to in the previous statement.
r.Copy Destination:=Worksheets(CStr(cells_with_color(i).Value)).Range("A1")
i = i + 1
Wend
End With
End Sub
It probably lacks some error-checking which ought to be in there, but I'll leave that as an exercise to you to figure out. I believe it is functional. Good luck!
I have 2 sheets: sheet1 and sheet2. I have a value in cell A3 (sheet1) which is not constant. And many files in sheets2.
What I would like to do, is when the value in cell A3 (Sheet1) is the same as the value in the column A (Sheet2), it will delete the entire row where is find this value (Sheet2).
This is my attempt. It doesn't work: no rows are deleted.
If Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A3").Text = Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A:A").Text Then
Dim f As String
f = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A3")
Set c = Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A:A").Find(f)
Worksheets("Sheet2").Range(c.Address()).EntireRow.Delete
End If
My guess is that you're not finding anything with the .Find(). Since you're not checking it for is Nothing you don't know. Also, .Find() retains all the search parameters set from the last time you did a search - either via code or by hand in your spreadsheet. While only the What parameter is required, it's always worth setting the most critical parameters (noted below) for it, you may want to set them all to ensure you know exactly how you're searching.
Dim f As String
If Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A3").Text = Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A:A").Text Then
f = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A3")
Set c = Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("A:A").Find(What:=f, Match:=[Part|Whole], _
LookIn:=[Formula|value])
if not c is Nothing then
Worksheets("Sheet2").Range(c.Address()).EntireRow.Delete
else
MsgBox("Nothing found")
End If
End If
Go look at the MS docs to see what all the parameters and their enumerations are.
Sub Test()
Dim ws As Worksheet
For x = 1 To Rows.Count
If ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(x, 1).Value = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(3, 1).Value Then ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(x, 1).EntireRow.Delete
Next x
End Sub
I an trying to extract data from sheet "Record" by matching an entered reference number in sheet "Form" with those numbers in column B of "Record." I was able to come up with the VB code below through command button click. However, it will only return a single value from sheet "Record" column i and coding for each will really be time consuming.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
With Application.WorksheetFunction
Sheets("Form").Range("b:b") = _
.Index(Sheets("Record").Range("h:h"), .Match(Sheets("Form").Range("i13"), Sheets("Record").Range("b:b"), 0), 1)
End With
End Sub
I'm wondering if is it possible to copy values from sheet "Record" columns H-Q to sheet "Form" columns B-K if the reference number in cell I13 of sheet "Form" matches any value on column B of sheet "Record?" Because what i encounter most of the time is returning the entire row.
I would really appreciate any help. Thanks
It might be brute force, but I think the best way is to loop through the data like this:
'Find the last row of data
Public Function Get_Last_Row_Find(ByVal rngToCheck As Range) As Long
Dim rngLast As Range
Set rngLast = rngToCheck.Find(what:="*", searchorder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious)
If rngLast Is Nothing Then
Get_Last_Row_Find = rngToCheck.Row
Else
Get_Last_Row_Find = rngLast.Row
End If
If Get_Last_Row_Find <= 1 Then
Get_Last_Row_Find = 2
End If
End Function
Public Sub CommandButton1_Click
x = Get_Last_Row_Find(Sheets("Record").Range("B:B")
for i = 1 to x
if Sheets("Form").Range("I13").Value = Sheets("Record").Range("B:B").Offset(i-1,0).Value then 'match
Worksheets("Record").Range("H"&i&":Q"&i).Copy _
destination:=Worksheets("Form").Range("B"&i&":K"&i)
next i
Note the two methods of "offsetting": you can use the .Offset method or you can use a variable and concatenate it within the Range("") text.
Code not tested.
