I'm in the need of your help to solve the basic exercise I encountered during the course of learning Excel VBA. So, here it is:
There is a list of rollercoasters, where one column represents the name of the rollercoaster, whilst another column its type. I have to loop down the list, until the empty cell, selecting only those rollercoasters, the type of which is "Wooden". The sub should end with a message box displaying all rollercoasters' names, that matched our "Wooden" criterion (every line of msgbox contains one name).
So, anyone could advise a new learner how to cope with the above...?
This will run on the first 1000 rows where column a is the rollercoasters and column b is the type. you can cahnge the number 1000 to another number or xldown if you desire.
Sub Macro1()
'
Dim Rollers As String
For i = 1 To 1000
If Cells(i, 2) = "Wooden" Then Rollers = Rollers & vbNewLine & Cells(i, 1).Value
If Cells(i, 1) = "" Then MsgBox (Rollers): End
Next i
'
End Sub
I would add to Balinti's answer. This will get you the last row to use instead of hardcoding 1000
Dim sht As Worksheet
Dim LastRow As Long
Set sht = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
LastRow = sht.Cells(sht.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Then you would have a loop that looked like this
For i = 1 To LastRow
Next i
MsgBox Rollers

This is what I'm going for, but I'm pretty green when it comes to loops:
If (G1<>"", InputBox for a multiplier for range G2:G's LastRow,"")
Loop through column BZ1 (or preferably, the last column)
Or:
G1:BZ1 each contain the name of an order set. I need to manually enter the number of times each order set will be used. D2:D1001 are the number of times an item occurs in each set. I need to multiply D2:D1001 by the input box's number and enter that result for each item into G2:G1001.
I have multiple order sets and need to multiple each one by a different number of stores every time that this macro will be run. Order sets are in the columns, items are in the rows.
This should do the trick - just change that Sheet1 to whatever your sheet's name is.
So first we get the last column of data to use for our first loop (by getting the value of lastcol), then we start looping through the columns. We assign a value to multiplier through the InputBox, and after that we loop through every cell in the column and multiply it by the number you entered. Then we move on to the next column until we've run out of data.
I've updated the text in the InputBox to display the header text for each column each time.
Sub Test()
Dim sht As Worksheet, lastcol As Long, lastrow As Long, multiplier As Integer
Set sht = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
lastcol = sht.Cells(1, sht.Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
For i = 7 To lastcol
If Cells(1, i) <> vbNullString Then
multiplier = InputBox("Number of stores using set " & Cells(1, i) & ".")
lastrow = sht.Cells(sht.Rows.Count, 4).End(xlUp).Row
For j = 2 To lastrow
On Error Resume Next
Cells(j, i).Value = Cells(j, 4).Value * multiplier
On Error GoTo 0
Next j
End If
Next i
End Sub
I've got a column: U. This column has values from U10 till U500.
What I need to get is the last changing value of the column and if it doesn't change then a text "False" or something and if the last changing value is an empty cell, then ignore that..
Column U
11
11
5
11
11
21
For example here the result should be 21.
I've tried comparing two rows and with conditional formatting but with such a big range doing all this for each row is a bit too much.
Does anybody know a good way to do this?
Something like that should do it ...
Sub test()
Dim LastRow As Long, i As Long
With Worksheets("Sheet1") 'your sheet name
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "U").End(xlUp).Row 'find last used row in column U
For i = LastRow To 2 Step -1 'loop from last row to row 2 backwards (row 1 can not be compared with row before)
If .Cells(i, "U").Value <> .Cells(i - 1, "U").Value Then 'compare row i with row before. If it changes then ...
MsgBox "Last row is: " & .Cells(i, "U").Address & vbCrLf & _
"Value is: " & .Cells(i, "U").Value
Exit For 'stop if last changing row is found
End If
Next i
End With
End Sub
It loops from last used row in column U to the first row and checks if the current row is different from the row before. If so it stops.
i am not sure of the how you want the output.
IF(AND(RC[-1]<>R[-1]C[-1],ROW(RC[-1])>500,R[-1]C[-1]<>""),RC[-1],"")
try this formula in cells V10:V500
Try this Macro.
First run the AnalyseBefore sub and when you want to check if the value has changed run the AfterAnalyse sub.
Incase you want the range to be dynamic use the code that I have commented and include iCount in your Range calculation
Sub AnalyseBefore()
Dim iCount
Range("U10").Select
iOvalue = Range("U500").Value
'iCount = Selection.Rows.Count
Range("Z1").Value = iOvalue
End Sub
Sub AnalyseAfter()
Dim iCount
Range("U10").Select
iNValue = Range("U500").Value
Range("Z2").Value = iNValue
iOvalue = Range("Z1").Value
If (iOvalue = iNValue) Then
Range("U500").Value = "FALSE"
End If
End Sub
I need code, as my title suggests, for the following task. I already tried a lot of different code but it's still not working.
I only need to move 2 columns, "SKU" and "Discount", into sheet2 using command button and delete it right away.
I'm already okay for this coding. However, but the problem is just beginning.
When I succeed to moved the first data, and try to move the 2nd data, the 1st data disappears.
I already tried many ways but still can't figure it out what's wrong with the code.
Please check the following code:
Sub OUTGOING_GOODS()
function1
function2
clear
Range_End_Method
End Sub
Sub function1()
Sheets("Invoice Print").Range("B21:B27").Copy Destination:=Sheets("Outgoing Goods").Range("D4")
End Sub
Sub function2()
Sheets("Invoice Print").Range("D21:D27").Copy Destination:=Sheets("Outgoing Goods").Range("L4")
End Sub
Sub clear()
Range("B21:B27").clear
End Sub
I also need to change the range for input data as well. As you can see the Range is defined only from D21:D27, but I need more than row 27 just in case there is additional data inputted.
Already tried the following code:
With Worksheets("Sheet2")
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Row
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "L").End(xlUp).Row
For Each cell In Range("D4:D" & LastRow)
DestinationRow = LastRow + 1
Next
For Each cell In Range("L4:L" & LastRow)
DestinationRow = LastRow + 1
Next
End With
And
Lastrow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To InputData
Lastrow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
For j = 1 To 3
.Cells(lastrow + 1, j).Value = InputData(i, j)
Next j
Next i
End With
This still isn't working.
Based on our discussions thus far I'd suggest the following:
Sub Outgoing_Goods_New()
'
Dim Outgoing As Worksheet 'Generally it's better to use Worksheet variables. Saves the trouble of having to re-type the sheet name each time you reference the sheet
Dim Invoice As Worksheet
Dim LastRow_Invoice As Long
Dim LastRow_Outgoing As Long
Set Outgoing = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Outgoing Goods")
Set Invoice = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Invoice Print")
'Find the last row of Outgoing column D that's used so we know where to paste the new set of outgoing goods
LastRow_Outgoing = Outgoing.Range("D1048576").End(xlUp).Row
'Make sure column L of Outgoing ends at the same point
If Outgoing.Range("L1048576").End(xlUp).Row > LastRow_Outgoing Then
LastRow_Outgoing = Outgoing.Range("L1048576").End(xlUp).Row
End If 'else column L's last used row is farther up the worksheet or the same row. Either way no need to update the value
'Determine how much data to copy
LastRow_Invoice = Invoice.Range("B1048576").End(xlUp).Row 'I'm assuming Column D of Invoice Print has to end at the same row. If not, use the same IF statement as above, but
'checking column D of Invoice
'Copy the data from column B
Invoice.Range("B2:B" & LastRow_Invoice).Copy
'Paste to Outgoing Goods
Outgoing.Range("B" & LastRow_Outgoing).PasteSpecial xlPasteAll
'Copy Column D of Invoice
Invoice.Range("D2:D" & LastRow_Invoice).Copy
Outgoing.Range("L" & LastRow_Outgoing).PasteSpecial xlPasteAll
'Clear the data from Invoice print
Invoice.Range("B2:B" & LastRow_Invoice).ClearContents 'Removes the Value, but leaves formatting, comments, etc. alone
End Sub
This is mostly the logic you already had, but I did some clean-up to remove ambiguities and genericize the logic a little. Also, notice that I didn't keep the separate Subs. With how little you're doing there's just not any benefit to parsing the logic, especially with none of the code being re-used.
Last, I didn't delete column D on Invoice Print assuming that the cells just held formulas that pull in new data based on the values in Column B. If that's not the case, it seems like you should add a second ClearContents to delete Column D as well, but that's not certain given the vagueness of your use case.
I was having some trouble with a macro I have been writing. I am trying to find a match in column A and column D. When I detect a match I want to copy the adjacent cells of each I.E copy the contents of B of the line of the first match to E where the match occurs in D. Whenever I do this I never get the right copy. It will copy the values that match but put them in the completely wrong space. I only encounter a problem when the order is mixed up or there is a white space. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks
Nick.
Note: In this version of my code I was using input boxes to pick what two columns of data the user wants to compare and the one he wants to copy from and paste too. It should not make a big difference.
Sub Copy()
Dim column1 As String
Dim column2 As String
Dim from As String
Dim too As String
numrows = Sheet1.Range("A1").Offset(Sheet1.Rows.Count - 1, 0).End(xlUp).Row
'MsgBox numrows
column1 = InputBox("which column do you want to select from")
column2 = InputBox("which column do you want to compare to ")
from = InputBox("which column do you want to copy data from")
too = InputBox("which column do you want to copy data to")
Dim lngLastRow As Long
Dim lngLoopCtr As Long
Dim i As Long
Dim j As Long
Dim value As String
lngLastRow = Range(column1 & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
lngLastRow2 = Range(column2 & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
'lngLastRow = Sheet1.Range("A1").Offset(Sheet1.Rows.Count - 1, 0).End(xlUp).Row
Dim temp As String
For i = 1 To lngLastRow Step 1
temp = Cells(i, column1).value
value = Cells(i, from).value
'MsgBox "temp"
'MsgBox (temp)
If Cells(i, column1).value <> "" Then
For j = 1 To lngLastRow2 Step 1
' MsgBox "cell"
' MsgBox (Cells(j, column2).value)
If Cells(j, column2).value = "" Then
Cells(j, column2).Offset(1, 0).Select
End If
If Cells(j, column2).value <> "" Then
If temp = Cells(j, column2).value Then
'MsgBox "equal"
'MsgBox "i"
'MsgBox i
'MsgBox "j"
'MsgBox j
'value = Cells(j, from).value
'MsgBox Cells(i, too).value
'Cells(i, too).value = Cells(j, from).value
'Dim num As Integer
'On Error Resume Next
'num = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(temp, Sheet1.Range("A0:M13"), 3, False)
Cells(i, too).value = Cells(j, from).value
'MsgBox j
' MsgBox (Cells(i, column1).value)
' MsgBox "="
' MsgBox (Cells(j, column2).value)
End If
End If
Next j
End If
Next i
End Sub
I have studied your text and your macro and think the macro below does what you want.
If this macro does what you want, your problem was caused by your use of meaningless variable names such as: column1, column2, i and j. This meant you did not notice you were using the wrong variables in the statement that copied values.
I have renamed all your variables. I am not asking you to like my naming convention but I am recommending you have a naming convention. I can look at macros I wrote years ago and know what all the variables are because I developed my convention in my early days of VBA programming and have used it every since. This makes my life much easier when I need to update old macros.
I have added Option Explicit at the top of the module. Without this statement, a misspelt variable name becomes a declaration:
Dim Count As Long
Lots of statements
Count = Conut + 1
This causes Conut to be declared with a value of zero. Such errors can be a nightmare to find.
I have used a With Statement to make explicit which worksheet I am using.
You checked both cells to not be empty. I only check the first because it is not necessary to check the second since, if the second is empty, it will not match the first.
Your code did not stop working down the Compare column if it found a match so my code does the same. This is correct if values can repeat in the Compare column. If they cannot repeat, you may wish to add Exit For to exit the inner loop after a match has been processed.
I believe the above explains all the changes I hve made.
Option Explicit
Sub Copy()
Dim ColCompare As String
Dim ColCopyFrom As String
Dim ColCopyTo As String
Dim ColSelect As String
Dim RowCrntCompare As Long
Dim RowCrntSelect As Long
Dim RowLastColCompare As Long
Dim RowLastColSelect As Long
Dim SelectValue As String
With Sheet1
ColSelect = InputBox("which column do you want to select ColCopyFrom")
ColCompare = InputBox("which column do you want to compare to ")
ColCopyFrom = InputBox("which column do you want to copy data ColCopyFrom")
ColCopyTo = InputBox("which column do you want to copy data to")
RowLastColSelect = .Range(ColSelect & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
RowLastColCompare = .Range(ColCompare & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For RowCrntSelect = 1 To RowLastColSelect Step 1
SelectValue = .Cells(RowCrntSelect, ColSelect).value
If SelectValue <> "" Then
For RowCrntCompare = 1 To RowLastColCompare Step 1
If SelectValue = Cells(RowCrntCompare, ColCompare).value Then
.Cells(RowCrntCompare, ColCopyTo).value = _
.Cells(RowCrntSelect, ColCopyFrom).value
End If
Next RowCrntCompare
End If
Next RowCrntSelect
End With
End Sub
I am using Excel 2010 and trying to add a bunch of rows placing the sum of columns A and B in column C. If the sum is over 500 I would then like to boldface the number in column C. My code below works works mathematically but will not do the bold formatting. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? Thank you.
Public Sub addMyRows()
Dim row As Integer 'creates a variable called 'row'
row = 2 'sets row to 2 b/c first row is a title
Do
Cells(row, 3).Formula = "=A" & row & "+B" & row 'the 3 stands for column C.
If ActiveCell.Value > 500 Then Selection.Font.Bold = True
row = row + 1
'loops until it encounters an empty row
Loop Until Len(Cells(row, 1)) = 0
End Sub
Pure VBA approach:
Public Sub AddMyRows()
Dim LRow As Long
Dim Rng As Range, Cell As Range
LRow = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Set Rng = Range("C2:C" & LRow)
Rng.Formula = "=A2+B2"
For Each Cell In Rng
Cell.Font.Bold = (Cell.Value > 500)
Next Cell
End Sub
Screenshot:
An alternative is conditional formatting.
Hope this helps.
Note: The formula in the block has been edited to reflect #simoco's comment regarding a re-run of the code. This makes the code safer for the times when you need to re-run it. :)
