I need to set up conditional formatting for a column where each cell is highlighted based on two other values derived from cells within the spreadsheet. The values are dates. This needs to be done in VBA (for lots of reasons: the code works with other software and clears out contents, groups lines together, etc.). I have failed with many methods and am currently failing with the following:
Sheets("Trial").Activate
With ActiveSheet.Range("E:E")
.Select
.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlCellValue, Operator:=xlBetween, Formula1:="="
& (Range("P1").Value - 1), Formula2:="=" & (Range("P1").Value + 6)
.FormatConditions(1).Interior.Color = RGB(255, 0, 0)
End With
Ultimately, I need cells in column E to turn red when the value is between P1-1 and P1+6. Even if I extract this code and run it by itself, I am getting a procedure call error. Thoughts?
Please try:
Sheets("Trial").Activate
With Columns("E:E")
.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:="=AND(E1>=$P$1-1,E1<=$P$1+6)"
.FormatConditions(1).Interior.Color = 255
End With
You don't even have to use conditional formatting if you don't want to. You could use a for loop to loop through all the values in column E. Take this as an example.
Dim TotalERows As Long
Dim EValue As Long
Dim LowerBound As Long
Dim UpperBound As Long
LowerBound = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("P1").Value - 2
UpperBound = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("P1").Value + 7
TotalERows = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("E" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For I = 1 To TotalERows
EValue = Range("E" & I).Value
If LowerBound < EValue And EValue < UpperBound Then
Range("E" & I).Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
Next I

I have a series of matrices consisting of 7 columns with a varied number of rows. I want the company names that are in column 2 of the matrix if the corresponding data in column 4 is "CM" aggregated into one cell per matrix (lets say B3:B98 for all the different matrices) with a space in between the different names. Please see the below picture for an example of what the matrices look like
The end result is that all the company names in Column E will be aggregated in B3 if the cell on the same row in column G is "CM", the next matrix beginning in Column M in B4 and so on.
I am having zero success in getting my if statement to recognize "CM" in the cell content, or aggregating the results using the Join statement. Any help is much appreciated.
Edits:
The objective is to have all the underwriters on a particular security aggregated in one cell, so that the cell can be easily searched in another part of the sheet for the presence of a particular underwriter.
The code below, as you can likely tell, does not work. I hit a wall as I could not get it to distinguish between cells that contained "CM" and those that did not. (I know that the code below would not aggregate the result in any cell, only copying the result into column B, as I said, it is a work in progress that has stalled.)
Dim Ws5 As Worksheet: Set Ws5 = Worksheets(5)
'turn off some Excel functionality so code runs faster
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayStatusBar = False
Application.EnableEvents = False
ActiveSheet.DisplayPageBreaks = False
'Compiles the managers in the matrices into a column on the MgrMatrix sheet to be used
'for the entry sheet column of underwriters.
Dim CoL As Range: Set CoL = Ws5.Range("D3:K104")
Dim CeL As Range
For Each CeL In CoL.Columns(4)
If CeL.Text = "CM" Then
CeL.Offset(0, -5) = "CM"
Else
CeL.Offset(0, -5) = CeL.Offset(0, -2).Value
End If
Next
Edit: Using urdearboy's code, i modified it to work for multiple matrices on the same sheet in the below way. This version doesn't have the same finesse as his did, as this version relies on all matrices containing the same number of columns and not exceeding 100 rows.
For i = 7 To 857 Step 9
For y = 3 To 100
If Cells(y, i) = "CM" Then
s = s & Cells(y, i).Offset(0, -1).Value & " "
End If
Next y
If s = "" Then
s = "Sole Lead"
End If
Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = Trim(s)
s = ""
Next i
Paste code in VBE within Sheet 5 (Or whatever sheet you want to run this on).
The string, s, will build itself as it loops through your column checking for "CM" matches.
As is, the code will add commas between each new value added like, so, and, so, and then remove the last coma at the end before displaying the final string like, so, and, so
Option Explicit
Sub TextCM()
Dim i As Long, s As String
For i = 3 To Range("G" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
If Range("G" & i) = "CM" Then
s = s & Range("E" & i).Value & ", " 'Remove & ", " if you do not want the comma + space
End If
Next i
Range("B2") = Left(s, Len(s) - 2) 'Change to Range("B2") = s to not delete last character in string
End Sub
You should be able to figure out how to extend this to multiple tables (matrices?) no problem.
Example I want the VBA code to take the cells "A1" and "B1" and sum these two in "C1",
Thus it needs to do it with A2, A3, A4... all the way down to the very end of the column and summarize it to the C column.
Can anyone help program something like it?
I'm sure you can find the answer easily by searching a bit but here is a piece of code that might be helpful for you:
Sub SumColumns()
Dim Nb_Rows As Integer
'Nb_Rows can be any integer
For i = 1 To Nb_Rows
Range("C" & i).Value = Range("A" & i).Value + Range("B" & i).Value
Next i
End Sub
It calculates the value of Ai + Bi and puts it in Ci.
You can choose the value of Nb_Rows : if you know exactly the number of rows you want to calculate you can assign the exact value, else just choose a high number so that you're sure it goes through your entire sheet.
A slightly different version using formula - Cells is easier to use with numbers than Range CELLS(RowNum, ColNum)
Sub SumColumns()
Dim Nb_Rows As Integer
Nb_Rows = 4
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
.Cells(1, 3).FormulaR1C1 = "=Sum(RC1, RC2)"
.Cells(1, 3).AutoFill Destination:=.Range(.Cells(1, 3), .Cells(Nb_Rows, 3))
.Range(.Cells(1, 3), .Cells(Nb_Rows, 3)) = .Range(.Cells(1, 3), .Cells(Nb_Rows, 3)).Value
.Cells(Nb_Rows + 1, 3).FormulaR1C1 = "=SUM(R1C:R[-1]C)"
End With
End Sub
I have an excel file that looks like:
12123 51212
12123.5 45832
12124 37656
12124.5 32987
12125 42445
and so on, where column A is always 0.5 increasing and column B has a certain output.
Now I have a specific value in cell E2, say 12124,23 and I want a VBA code to return, in this case, that the best matching value is in cell A3, because I need this cell location in further code, I don't need the corresponding value in column B. I don't know how to start, however. The file can be up to 30000 rows big.
I'd only like to know first which method to use, then I will try to write the code myself of course :)

You don't have to use VBA for your problem, Excel will do it perfectly fine!
Try this
=vlookup(E2;A:A;2;true)
and for what you are trying to do, you HAVE TO sort your A column in an ascending fashion, or else you will get an error!
And if you do need that in VBA,
a simple for+if structure with a test like this
Function pr24(ByVal Value_To_Match As Double) As Range
For i = 2 To ActiveSheet.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
If Cells(i, 1) > Value_To_Match Then
If Abs(Cells(i - 1, 1) - Value_To_Match) >= Abs(Cells(i, 1) - Value_To_Match) Then
pr24 = Range(Cells(i, 1))
Else
pr24 = Range(Cells(i - 1, 1))
End If
Exit For
Else
End If
Next i
End Function
or you can use the worksheet function Vlookup
Application.WorksheetFunction.VLOOKUP()
You could use VLOOKUP function for this:-
Application.WorksheetFunction.VLOOKUP(lookup_value, table_array, column_index, range_lookup)
Set your values as below:-
lookup_value = 12124.23
table_array = would be the range Ax:Bx containing your values
column_index = 2 (the second column of table_array)
range_lookup = true
Setting range_lookup to true means that if the vlookup doesn't find the exact value it will return the closest match.
Note this will only work if the values in column A are sorted in ascending order.
Hope this helps.
You need to sort your data in column A first (smallest to largest), and then you can use a simple lookup formula:
=LOOKUP(E2,A:A)
If you don't want to sort the data, then you can use a VBA loop like so - however this is very inefficient - you should always use worksheet formulas where you can:
Sub SO()
Dim resultCell As Excel.Range
Dim checkCell As Double
Dim bestDiff As Double
checkCell = Range("E2").Value
bestDiff = checkCell
For i = 1 To Range("A" & Rows.count).End(xlUp).Row
If Range("A" & i).Value <= checkCell Then
If (checkCell - Range("A" & i).Value) < bestDiff Then
bestDiff = checkCell - Range("A" & i)
Set resultCell = Range("A" & i)
End If
End If
Next i
MsgBox "Best match is in " & resultCell.Address
Set resultCell = Nothing
End Sub
You dont'need VBA, a call co VLOOKUP Excel function will do the trick; remember to set the last parameter to true, to find a non exact match with the searched value
It should be like something similar to:
= VLOOKUP(E2, A:B, 2, true)
I am working out a button that can auto sum value at column C that column A = column B
like the picture :
PIC:
I can only copy the value in column C (that the word in column A = column B) to column E so far.
the code
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Dim i As Integer, q As Integer
q = 2
For i = 3 To 100
Range("E" & q).Value = Range("b" & 3).Value
If Range("B" & i).Value = "A-RDL1" And Range("c" & i).Value = "OPEN" Then
Range("E" & i).Value = Range("d" & i).Value
End If
Next i
End Sub
the question 1) is how can I skip the blanks E9 to E17, so the numbers can be continuous? (AFTER CLICK THE BOTTON)
question 2) is it possible to auto sum the Numbers in column E instead of show each?
Thanks a lot and sorry for my poor English...
1) Yes, you can skip those, just carry out a check in the cell value and compare to empty string: Range("").Value2 = "". I personally prefer to do it like this though, to avoid false positives: Len(Trim(Range("").Value2)) = 0.
2) Yes, you can do that. just declare an Integer variable or two and use that to carry out a running count of your values.
This program is to convert a column of data from cumulative to non-cumulative. On my sheet I have A1, B1, and C1 with the text Non-Cumulative, Cumulative, and Converted, respectively. I have numbers 1 to 10 beneath A1, then them summed cumulatively beneath B1. C1 is where I want to convert column B back to non-cumulative.
The IsNumeric is used to make the first row of data in C equal to the first row of data in B. It should detect that the title is above the number it is evaluating, thus knowing that no calculations have to be performed. For the rest of them, it'll see that the number above the one it is evaluating is a number, and thus the calculation has to be done.
My problem is that it isn't working. I think the reason is because IsNumeric() keeps coming back as false. Is there a different function I should be using? Do cell references not work in IsNumeric?
Here's the program!
Option Explicit
Dim i As Variant
Sub Conversion()
Sheets("Test Sheet").Select
For i = 1 To 10
If IsNumeric("B" & i) = False Then
Range("C" & i + 1) = Range("B" & i + 1)
Else: Range("C" & i + 1) = Range("B" & i + 1) - Range("B" & i - 1)
End If
Next
End Sub
The way you wrote your code is logical, just a minor syntax changes you need initially. However,
It's also best to check if the range is empty first...
Then check on if the value is numeric.
Better even, if you set the Range into a Range object and use offset
Code:
Option Explicit '-- great that you use explicit declaration :)
Sub Conversion()
Dim i As Integer '-- integer is good enough
Dim rngRange as Range
'-- try not to select anything. And for a cleaner code
Set rngRange = Sheets("Test Sheet").Range("B1")
For i = 1 To 10
If (rangeRange.Offset(i,0).value) <> "" then '-- check for non-empty
If IsNumeric(rangeRange.Offset(i,0).value) = False Then
rangeRange.Offset(i+1,1) = rangeRange.Offset(i+1,0)
Else
rangeRange.Offset(i+1,1) = rangeRange.Offset(i+1,0) - rangeRange.Offset(i-1,0)
End If
End if
Next i '-- loop
End Sub
To make your code more dynamic:
Another suggestion, you may simply Application.WorkSheetFunction.Transpose() the entire B column range that you need to validate into a variant array
Process the array and Transpose back to the Range with column B and C.
By doing so, you may omit setting for loop size manually but setting it using Lower and Upper bound of the array ;)
You need to check if the range of B i is numeric, not the string "B" & i
and rather than selecting the sheet, simply using a parent identifier like:
sheets("sheet1").range("B" & i)
This will help you avoid errors in your code
For i = 1 To 10
If IsNumeric(sheets("test sheet").range("B" & i).value) = False Then
Range("C" & i + 1) = Range("B" & i + 1)
Else: Range("C" & i + 1) = Range("B" & i + 1) - Range("B" & i - 1)
End If
Next
