VBA - Find number of times a value appears on another sheet - vba

I'm relatively new to VBA and I've ran into a problem. I have a list of values in Sheet 1 and all of those values are listed in Sheet 2 as well. Many of the values are listed multiple times in Sheet 2. How do I count the number of times the value appears in Sheet 2, then add that number to Cells(a,3) in Sheet 1 (where a corresponds to the row)? I want to keep the listed values in Sheet 1 unchanged and only manipulate Cell(a,3) in each row.
I've tried numerous things but I really have no idea where to start. Any help would be appreciated.

You would loop through your cells using something like:
For Each rngCell in Range(Cells(1, 3), Cells(Rows.Count, 3).End(xlUp))
rngCell.Value = rngCell.Value + WorksheetFunction.CountIf('Sheet2!'A:AZ, "value")
Next rngCell
Where the for is looping through your first to your last cell in column 3, then adding the countif from sheet2 (change the A:AZ to whatever your used columns are) for "Value"

You can do this without a loop by just assigning the COUNTIF() function to your range:
With Range("C2:C" & Range("A2").End(xlDown).Row)
.Formula = "=COUNTIF(Sheet2!A:A,A2)"
.Value = .Value
End With

Loop through column values from one sheet and paste COUNTIF value from another column into another sheet

I have two sheets in an Excel file and need to perform a COUNTIF formula from one sheet and paste the respective information in another sheet. The original sheet just has the type in 1st column with an empty 2nd column. I am trying to loop through the Type from Sheet 1, in each increment loop through the Type from Sheet 2, and past the Count of column 2 from Sheet 2 into Column 2 of sheet 1.
My current VBA code is as follows:
Sub TestOE()
'For loop to go until end of filled cells in 1st column of each sheet
a = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
b = Worksheets("Sheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
'Loop
For i = 2 To a
For j = 2 To b
If Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(i, 1).Value = Worksheets("Sheet2").Cells(j, 1).Value Then
Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(i, 2).Value = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Range("B:B"), 1)
End If
Next j
Next i
End Sub
This code is only pasting 0's in the desired outcome on Sheet 1.

You can simply use sumif function to sum the values based on criteria.
here is the formula
=COUNTIF(Sheet1!$A$2:$A$20,Sheet2!A2)
if you want to sum the col B then
=SUMIF(Sheet1!$A$2:$A$20,Sheet2!A2,Sheet1!$B$2:$B$20)
In a few steps, you can accomplish what you want without VBA, and just use a pivot table. Just do as follows.
Select your data set, including the header.
Click on insert tab, then PivotTable. See example for Office 365
Since you want a different worksheet, set PivotTable to be "New Worksheet" See example.
You'll need to drag the TYPE field into the rows, and binary into the values. CountIF is the same as summing binary, so you can leave as sum. See Example
And you'll have an output nearly identical to what you're looking for:

Array Formula in vba code with coping the formula down

I work on the code that will calculate Array Formula basing on how many records is in the column N:N that is 11 columns earlier (offset 11). I want to use the formula with array that will use the parallel row from the column N:N and copy down until the last record in column N:N exist. However, for now, formula copies down basing on the first record only instead of taking the row in parallel:
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")
TargetRow = 4
.Range("N4", .Cells(Rows.Count, "N").End(xlUp)).Offset(0, 11).FormulaArray = "=IFERROR(Name&INDEX(Names_Area,MATCH(RC[-11],Name&Name_Origin,0),2),"""")"
End With
I heard about fill down function or something alike but I am not sure how to insert it here.
How can I fix it so when the formula copies down into rows it takes the row in parallel and not all the time N4 (that is the first row of records).
I will appreciate any help.
I also want to mention that any other formula without array works and copies formula down basing on the rows in column N:N that are in paralell.
Try with .Autofill. something like:
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")
TargetRow = 4
.Range("N4").FormulaArray = "=IFERROR(Name&INDEX(Names_Area,MATCH(RC[-11],Name&Name_Origin,0),2),"""")"
.Range("N4").AutoFill .Range("N4:N12")
End With
I have used an example end point of N12 for the autofill which you can adjust.
Though note you are actually going to column Y with:
.Range("N4", .Cells(Rows.Count, "N").End(xlUp)).Offset(0, 11)
So you may want to ensure you autofill and populate formula in the actual column you want to fill.
Maybe something like:
.Range("N4").Offset(0, 11).FormulaArray =
Reference:

you could also use
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")
With .Range("N4", .Cells(Rows.Count, "N").End(xlUp)).Offset(0, 11)
.Cells(1, 1).FormulaArray = "=IFERROR(Name&INDEX(Names_Area,MATCH(RC[-11],Name&Name_Origin,0),2),"""")"
.Formula = .Cells(1, 1).Formula

Count the number of cells in a found column using VBA

I am pretty new to VBA and I have been fighting with creating one simple report for many days so I decided to inquire for some help. I will be really grateful for any tips you have or could point to any errors I might've made in my code.
I have the below piece of code (extracted from my loop). What I want to do is to create a list based on around 20 excel files that will have below stats:
name of the current tab inside the workbook
count of nonblanks in a column which name contains word "Difference" (always in row 7 but can be in different columns)
count from the same column but where cells are not blank AND different than 0.
For the last stat I didn't even start so you won't see it in my code but I would appreciate if you have any tips for this one too (which method best to use).
Windows("PassRate.xlsm").Activate
b = ActiveSheet.Cells(Rows.count, 2).End(xlUp).Row + 1
Cells(b, 3) = xlWorkBook.Worksheets(i).Name
xlWorkBook.Worksheets(i).Activate
Set Myrng = Range("B7:M9999").Find(What:="Difference", LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, MatchCase:=False)
If Not Myrng Is Nothing Then
RowQnt = xlWorkBook.Worksheets(i).Myrng.Offset(9999, 2).Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants).count
End If
Windows("PassRate.xlsm").Activate
Cells(b, 4) = RowQnt
My problem is that the macro runs and works, but the result I get is the list of tab names but all counts are 0 and I cannot overcome this issue. For the line number 7 I've also tried the piece of code below which yields the same result.
RowQnt = xlWorkBook.Cells(Rows.count, Myrng).End(xlUp)
Is it possible that my problem is due to the fact that in the source files the column containing word "Difference" is sometimes two merged columns? Unfortunately, I cannot change that as these are some automatically generated files from another program.
xlWorkBook.Worksheets(i).Myrng isn't a valid Range syntax while you can simply use MyRng which you already set to a not null Range reference and already has both parent worksheet and workbook references inside it
but even Myrng.Offset(9999, 2).Cells wouldn't do since it references one cell only and not a range of cells
you need a Range(Range1, Range2) syntax, where both Range1 and Range2 are valid Range references to the first and last cell of the range you actually want to count not blank cells of
furthermore you could use WorksheetFunction.CountA() function instead of SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants) range, since this latter errors out if no constant cells are found in the range it's being applied to (so you'd need a check) while the former simply returns zero if no not empty cells are found
for all what above you could write the following GetRowQnt() function:
Function GetRowQnt(sht As Worksheet) As Long
Dim Myrng As Range
With sht '<--| reference passed worksheet
Set Myrng = .Rows(7).Find(What:="Difference", LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, MatchCase:=False) '<--| find "Difference" in its 7th row
If Not Myrng Is Nothing Then GetRowQnt = WorksheetFunction.CountA(.Range(.Cells(8, Myrng.Column), .Cells(WorksheetFunction.Max(.Cells(.Rows.count, Myrng.Column).End(xlUp).row, 8), Myrng.Column))) '<--| count not blank cells in column where "Difference" was found from row 8 down to its last not empty cell
End With
End Function
and use it in your main code as follows:
With Windows("PassRate.xlsm").ActiveSheet '<--| reference "PassRate.xlsm" workbook active sheet (or change 'ActiveSheet' with 'Worksheetes("yourSheetName")')
For i = 1 To xlWorkbook.Worksheets.count '<--| loop through 'xlWorkbook' workbook worksheets
b = .Cells(.Rows.count, 3).End(xlUp).row + 1 '<--| get "PassRate.xlsm" workbook active sheet current first empty cell in column "C"
.Cells(b, 3) = xlWorkbook.Worksheets(i).Name
.Cells(b, 4) = GetRowQnt(xlWorkbook.Worksheets(i))
Next
End With
please note that with
b = .Cells(.Rows.count, 3).End(xlUp).row + 1
I took column "C" as the leading one to get last not empty row from, since there was no code in your post that wrote something in column "B".
But if your real code has some
.Cells(b, 2) = somedata '<--| write something in column "B" current row
then you can go back to b = .Cells(.Rows.count, 2).End(xlUp).row + 1

Creating muliple ranges based on criteria in column

New to VBA, and I'm trying to create multiple ranges or arrays based on a criteria in a column, then place those in a separate worksheet. The issue is that this code has to work for several different data sets. So one data sat will look something like
this, but with far more data points ( around 10,000 for each data set).
So what I'm trying to do is, for each group of 1's in the state column, create a range/array, then move the corresponding time and data in a new worksheet. So for the example I have, there would be 3 new worksheets, with the first new worksheet containing range("A2:B5"), the second one containing range("A10:B12"). With each data set, the state column changes and the number of new worksheets can also vary.
I have looked through this site, and the closest I have found to my needs is Creating Dynamic Range based on cell value, but it has a known number of ranges. I quite honestly have no idea how to accomplish what I need. I've been trying to make a while loop inside of a if then loop inside of a for each loop, but can't make it work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Been banging my head for hours now.
this should help you:
Option Explicit
Sub main()
Dim area As Range
With Sheets("myDataSheet") '<--| reference your sheet (change "myDataSheet") to your actual sheet name
With .Range("C1", .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp)) '<--| reference its columns A:C range form row 1 down to last column A not empty row
.AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:="1" '<--| filter referenced range on its 3rd column (i.e. "State") with 1
If Application.WorksheetFunction.Subtotal(103, .Resize(, 1)) > 1 Then '<--| if any filterd cells other than header
For Each area In .Resize(.Rows.Count - 1, 2).Offset(1).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Areas '<--| loop through filtered range (skipping header) 'Areas'
area.Copy Sheets.Add(Sheets(Sheets.Count)).Range("A1") '<--| copy current 'Area' into new sheet
Next area
End If
End With
.AutoFilterMode = False
End With
End Sub

Loop through columns and copy and paste cells A to B

I am working on a simple code but i have not able to crack it. i want the macro to run and pick up a value (2), and copy and paste the cells A to C , into sheet 2. The code below does copy the Cells A-B and pastes. I failing on the loop . I want it to loop from 1st row to last row. please.
Sub Tier_2()
With Sheets("Sheet1")
.Range(.Cells(1, 1), .Cells(3, 3)).Copy Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(1, 1)
End With
End Sub
This isn't for your specific situation, but the concept is what you are looking for. You should be able to do some research with what I'm showing you and figure it out.
lastRow = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row 'gets last row of Source sheet
For x = 1 to lastRow
Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(x, 1) = Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(x, 1) 'copy data from Sheet1 to Sheet2 row x
Next x 'loop and add one to x
You can use variables for either the row or column numbers in either the source or target sheets. You can insert another loop inside the first one. I'm not sure of what you are looking for, but your question didn't seem to have a loop in it at all.
If that doesn't get you going in the right direction try "Do While Loop" in a search.
EDIT: Updated the formula to better reflect idea.
