Excel VBA code to copy and paste table rows to PowerPoint until specific row height is met - excel

Question

I already have a working code that copies a table from Excel to PowerPoint and creates more slides and tables (splits the large table into multiple ones) if the sum of the row heights reaches a certain threshold in Excel:
Sub PowerPointTableSplit()
Dim rng As Range
Dim PowerPointApp As Object
Dim myPresentation As Object
Dim mySlide As Object
Dim myShape As Object
Dim lCol As Long
Dim lRow As Long
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim i As Long
Dim j As Integer
Dim rngH As Range
Dim wss As Worksheet
Set wb = Workbooks("Automation Tool.xlsm")
Set ws = wb.Sheets("630")
Set rngH = ws.Range("A1:AB1") 'Header Row (same for all tables)
LastRow = ws.Range("A" & ws.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
With ws.Range("A1:AB" & LastRow)
.Font.Name = "Arial"
.Font.Size = 6
End With
ws.Range("A1:A" & LastRow).EntireRow.AutoFit
i = 2
Set wss = wb.Worksheets.Add
Set PowerPointApp = GetObject(class:="PowerPoint.Application")
Set myPresentation = PowerPointApp.ActivePresentation
'Loop through excel table and cut it after X rows to make it fit on PowerPoint, Copy & Paste table
'wss is a temporary excel sheet to store every X rows (will be deleted at the end)
Do While i <= LastRow
Z = 1 'counter to check row height in excel
RowHeight = 0
Do Until RowHeight > 600
RowHeight = RowHeight + ws.Rows(Z).Height
Z = Z + 1
Loop
j = Application.Min(i + Z, LastRow)
Union(rngH, ws.Range("A" & i, ws.Range("AB" & j))).Copy
wss.Range("A1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteColumnWidths
wss.Range("A1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
wss.Range("A1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteAllUsingSourceTheme
sld.Shapes.PasteSpecial DataType:=ppPasteHTML, Link:=msoFalse
wss.Range("A1:AB" & j - i + 2).Copy
Set sld = myPresentation.Slides.Add(myPresentation.Slides.Count + 1, ppLayoutBlank)
i = j + 1
Loop
'Delte temporary excel sheet wss as not needed anymore
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
wss.Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Set wss = Nothing
End Sub
After this I am using a code to strech the table in PowerPoint to the whole available space on the slide, this also makes it tricky for me to get the real row height in PowerPoint using the code above as I would have to check the real height after streching the table.
Sub AutoFitTables()
Dim s As Slide
Dim oSh As Shape
Dim oTbl As Table
Dim lRow As Long
Dim lCol As Long
ScreenUpdating = False
For Each s In ActivePresentation.Slides
'ActivePresentation.Slides(Slide.SlideIndex(s)).Select
ActivePresentation.Slides(s.SlideIndex).Select
For Each oSh In s.Shapes
If oSh.HasTable Then
oSh.Left = 0 * 28.3
oSh.Top = 1.5 * 28.3
oSh.Width = 33.867 * 28.35
oSh.ZOrder msoSendToBack
Set oTbl = oSh.Table
For lRow = 1 To oTbl.Rows.Count
For lCol = 1 To oTbl.Columns.Count
With oTbl.Cell(lRow, lCol).Shape
.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Name = "Arial"
.TextFrame.TextRange.Font.Size = 6
.TextFrame2.VerticalAnchor = msoAnchorMiddle
oTbl.Rows(lRow).Height = 0.5
End With
Next lCol
Next lRow
End If
Next oSh
Next s
ActivePresentation.Slides(1).Select
End Sub
However, since I still want to copy a much wider table, the format in the table shifts as soon as I copy it into PowerPoint, so that the table is too large to be seen completely, the code does not work.
I already have an idea, but the implementation fails. I want to copy the table row after row and after each copy check the total row height in PowerPoint and jump to the next page if the row height of 450 is reached. For this the following code comes into question:
sld.Shapes(X).Table.Rows(Y).Height 'with X and Y looping
I would be thankful for any help and hints.
