Use the last row count in a formula - vba

The following code allows me to repeat a formula from row 2 to all rows up to the last active row.
Dim LastRow As Long
With Sheets("C PUR TYPE")
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
.Range("M2:M" & LastRow).formula = "=IFERROR(RIGHT(SUBSTITUTE(Lookup_concat(A2,$A$2:$A1932,$L$2:$L1932),"" 0,"",""""),LEN(SUBSTITUTE(Lookup_concat(A2,$A$2:$A1932,$L$2:$L1932),"" 0,"",""""))-2),"" - "")"
End With
In this instance there are 1'932 active rows.
Is there a way that I can replace the cell reference :$A1932 and $L1932 in the formula to using the last row count as the row count will be different each time the report runs.
Thanks

Using & will allow you to concatenate the variable into the string:
Dim LastRow As Long
With Sheets("C PUR TYPE")
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
.Range("M2:M" & LastRow).formula = "=IFERROR(RIGHT(SUBSTITUTE(Lookup_concat(A2,$A$2:$A" & LastRow & ",$L$2:$L" & LastRow & "),"" 0,"",""""),LEN(SUBSTITUTE(Lookup_concat(A2,$A$2:$A" & LastRow & ",$L$2:$L" & LastRow & "),"" 0,"",""""))-2),"" - "")"
End With

Seems to me like you can use a variable similar to how you calculated lastRow.
Example (assuming you don't have any blanks in column A):
dim LookupLastrow as long
LookupLastrow=range("A1").end(xldown).row
then replace the 1932 references in your formula with " & lookuplastrow & ":
.Range("M2:M" & LastRow).formula = "=IFERROR(RIGHT(SUBSTITUTE(Lookup_concat(A2,$A$2:$A" & lookuplastrow & ",$L$2:$L" & lookuplastrow & "),"" 0,"",""""),LEN(SUBSTITUTE(Lookup_concat(A2,$A$2:$A" & lookuplastrow & ",$L$2:$L" & lookuplastrow & "),"" 0,"",""""))-2),"" - "")"

Using last row value in another set of formula

I currently have 3 columns, (AB,AC & AD) . I need to sum Column AB & AC to its last Row as data varies as to number of rows. In column AD, I need to divide the amount of every cell, lets say AB1 to the sum of column AB and then divide it by the sum of column AD, in which sum of both are placed in the last Row of each column.
I already have the formula, however, my problem is after running the macro, in the formula bar, the sum of both AB & AC are hard-coded numbers. it shows like =AB1/200*300 , what i need is to show the cell reference like this =AB1/AB30*AC30 (provided last row is in row30), since sum of both columns may change if i need to add new rows in between or in cases where amount on those cells will be changed.
My current formula is this:
LastRow = Range("AB" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
Range("AB" & LastRow & ":AC" & LastRow).Formula = "=Sum(AB2:AB" & LastRow - 1 & ")"
Range("AD2:AD" & LastRow - 1).Formula = "=AB2/" & Range("AB" & LastRow) & "*" & Range("AC" & LastRow).Value
Please help. Thank you!
Regards,

Instead of the .Value return the Address(0,0)
Range("AD2:AD" & LastRow - 1).Formula = "=AB2/" & Range("AB" & LastRow).Address(1,1) & "*" & Range("AC" & LastRow).Address(1,1)
But there is no reason to do that either as you can just concatenate the last row value in:
Range("AD2:AD" & LastRow - 1).Formula = "=AB2/AB$" & LastRow & "*" & "AC$" & LastRow

vba to copy to different ranges

I have this sheet called Consulta where everytime I change the value on the column K it changes the color of the range E:K to green or white if it's empty.
I also want to if the row is green, copy that row to the sheet called E-mail. This is what I've tried so far and it works:
Sub ChangeColor()
Dim ws As Worksheet, ws1 As Worksheet, i As Long, lastrow As Long
Set ws = Sheets("Consulta")
Set ws1 = Sheets("E-mail")
lastrow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, "E").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 5 To lastrow
If ws.Range("K" & i) <> "" Then
ws.Range("E" & i & ":K" & i).Interior.ColorIndex = 43
ws.Range("E" & i & ":K" & i).Copy ws1.Range("A" & i & ":G" & i)
Else
ws.Range("E" & i & ":K" & i).Interior.ColorIndex = 2
End If
Next
If ws.Range("E" & i & ":K" & i).Interior.ColorIndex = 2 Then
ws1.Range("A" & i & ":G" & i).Clear
End If
End Sub
My problem is with this line below:
ws.Range("E" & i & ":K" & i).Copy ws1.Range("A" & i & ":G" & i)
I actually want to copy to a different range instead of the corresponding range in the sheet E-mail (for example, if the first match is E3:K3 I want to copy to A2:K2. If the second match is E34:K34 I want to copy it to A3:K3 and so it goes).
I tried using another loop but my Excel got crazy so I think I did it wrong.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
You only need the upper-left corner cell for a destination. Look from the bottom up for the last used cell and offset down a row.
with ws1
ws.Range("E" & i & ":K" & i).Copy .cells(.rows.count, "A").end(xlup).offset(1, 0)
end with
You might want to put this above the line that applies a fill color or you will be copying the fill color as well.

Insert formula with Variable VBA

I'm trying to insert a formula in the Column C of Sheet2. The row number however depends on the value of pasterow. The range in the formula should be G[lastrow]:NS[lastrow] with lastrow pertaining to the last row of Sheet1.
Here is my code:
Sub try()
With Sheets("Sheet2")
pasterow = .Cells(.rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
With Sheets("Sheet1")
lastRow = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("F" & .rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("C" & pasterow).formula = _
"=COUNTIF(Sheet1!G & lastRow & :NS & lastRow & , ""VL"" )"
End With
End With
End Sub
I'll really appreciate if someone could point out what's wrong with my code. Thanks!
The VBA variables are inside your formula string. Compare:
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("C" & pasterow).formula = "=COUNTIF(Sheet1!G" & lastrow & ":NS" & lastrow & ", ""VL"" )"
Try this..
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("C" & pasterow).FormulaR1C1 = "=COUNTIF(Sheet1!C[4]:C[380],""VL"")"
May be this is what your expecting to achieve!
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("C" & pasterow).Value = "=COUNTIF(Sheet1!G" & lastRow & ":NS" & lastRow & ", ""VL"" )"
Try with:
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("C" & pasterow).formula = _
"=COUNTIF(Sheet1!R" & lastrow & "C7:R" & lastrow & "C383,""VL"")"

Correcting formula in vba excel

I want to create a macro that check all the cells of a column and if the first two characters of a cell is "BB" then i want the macro to extract three characters from the cell and paste it to the next column but a the corresponding row.
But my formula after the if clause is not working.
this is what i have done since:
Sub test()
Dim lmid As String
Dim srange, SelData, ExtBbFor As String
Dim lastrow As Long
Dim i, icount As Integer
lastrow = ActiveSheet.Range("B30000").End(xlUp).Row
srange = "G1:G" & lastrow
SelData = "A1:G" & lastrow
Range(srange).Formula = "=mid(E1,1,3)"
For i = 1 To lastrow
If InStr(1, LCase(Range("E" & i)), "bb") <> 0 Then
Range("G" & i).Formula = "=mid("E & i", 4, 3)"
End If
Next i
End Sub
thanks in advance
Try with below. It will work
Range("G" & i).Value = Mid(Range("E" & i), 4, 3)
If the cell is not limited to 7 then you need as below
Range("G" & i).Value = "=Mid(E" & i & ", 3, " & Len(E & "& i & ") & ")"
It will extract from the 3rd character up to the last character in a cell.
Your syntax is wrong where you're trying to concatenate strings, I think you mean to use:
Range("G" & i).Formula = "=MID(E" & i & ",4,3)"
Based on your code I think this will do the exact same thing without having to loop or declare any variables:
Sub test()
With Range("G1:G" & Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Row)
.FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(UPPER(LEFT(RC[-2],2))=""BB"",MID(RC[-2],4,3),"""")"
.Value = .Value
End With
End Sub

Using a formula in a range of cells

I want to use a formula in a range of cells but I get the formula in that cell and not the results of the formula.
I tried a couple of different ways.
The first script I tried entered the formula all the way down the column until the last row value: -
Dim LastRow As Long
LastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, 5).End(xlUp).Row
Range("DO22:DO" & LastRow).Formula = "IF=COUNTIF(AS22:AU" & LastRow & " ,""=Major Variance"")>0,""Major Variance"",IF(COUNTIF(AS22:AU" & LastRow & " ,""=Minor Variance"")>0,""Minor Variance"",""On Track""))"
This is the other script I tried but this puts the formula only in the first row of the range: -
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim Rng As Range
Range("DO22:DO" & LastRow).Select
For Each Rng In Range("DO22:DO" & LastRow)
ActiveCell.Formula = "IF=COUNTIF(AS22:AU" & LastRow & " ,""=Major Variance"")>0,""Major Variance"",IF(COUNTIF(AS22:AU" & LastRow & " ,""=Minor Variance"")>0,""Minor Variance"",""On Track""))"
Next Rng
Edit 1
I have made a change to the code as per someone's answer but I am now getting an run-time error 'Application-defined or object defined error.
It only seems to happen when I add the extra = in front of the If. The error appears on the line
Rng.Formula = "=IF=COUNTIF(AS22:AU" & LastRow & " ,""=Major Variance"")>0,""Major Variance"",IF(COUNTIF(AS22:AU" & LastRow & " ,""=Minor Variance"")>0,""Minor Variance"",""On Track""))"
Here is the edited script: -
Dim Rng As Range
Dim LastRow As Long
LastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, 5).End(xlUp).Row
Range("DO22:DO" & LastRow).Select
For Each Rng In Range("DO22:DO" & LastRow).Cells
Rng.Formula = "=IF=COUNTIF(AS22:AU" & LastRow & " ,""=Major Variance"")>0,""Major Variance"",IF(COUNTIF(AS22:AU" & LastRow & " ,""=Minor Variance"")>0,""Minor Variance"",""On Track""))"
Rng.Value = Rng.Value
Next Rng
You have a malformed IF function and COUNTIF function.
'target formula "=IF(COUNTIF(AS22:AU99, "Major Variance"), "Major Variance", =IF(COUNTIF(AS22:AU99, "Minor Variance"), "Minor Variance", "On Track"))
rng.Formula = "=IF(COUNTIF(AS22:AU" & lastRow & ", ""Major Variance""), ""Major Variance"", " & _
"IF(COUNTIF(AS22:AU" & lastRow & ", ""Minor Variance""), ""Minor Variance"", " & _
"""On Track""))"
rng = rng.Value
Note that if both Major Variance and Minor Variance exist, then Major Variance takes precedence.
To put this formula into each row and modify the row each time in a loop, the code would look like this.
Dim lastRow As Long, rng As Range
With Worksheets("Sheet1") '<~~ you should know what worksheet you are on!
lastRow = .Cells(Rows.Count, 5).End(xlUp).Row
For Each rng In .Range("DO22:DO" & lastRow)
rng.Formula = "=IF(COUNTIF(AS" & rng.Row & ":AU" & rng.Row & ", ""Major Variance""), ""Major Variance"", " & _
"IF(COUNTIF(AS" & rng.Row & ":AU" & rng.Row & ", ""Minor Variance""), ""Minor Variance"", " & _
"""On Track""))"
rng.Value = rng.Value
Next rng
End With
But you can also put the formula into all of the cells at once like this.
Dim lastRow As Long
With Worksheets("Sheet1") '<~~ you should know what worksheet you are on!
lastRow = .Cells(Rows.Count, 5).End(xlUp).Row
With .Range("DO22:DO" & lastRow)
.Formula = "=IF(COUNTIF(AS22:AU22, ""Major Variance""), ""Major Variance"", " & _
"IF(COUNTIF(AS22:AU22, ""Minor Variance""), ""Minor Variance"", " & _
"""On Track""))"
.Value = .Value
End With
End With
You are using activecell in the 2nd one so it will only be in the active cell if not selected. so you need to change your loop to be
For Each Rng In Range("DO22:DO" & LastRow).cells
and then
rng.Formula = "=IF=COUNTIF(AS22:AU" & LastRow & " ,""=Major Variance"")....
then
rng.value=rng.value
also, in the 2nd one, youre not setting LastRow.
