I have a worksheet named "garcat_nv" with hundreds of columns. The first row contains the names that I'd like to give to each column. How can I loop through my sheet to give each column the name given in the first cell of that column ? This is an example of the Column AJ that I'd like to name GCFRRE.
Dim GCFRRE As Range
LastRow = garcat_nv.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Set GCFRRE = Range("AJ2:AJ" & LastRow)
garcat_nv.Names.Add Name:="GCFRRE", RefersTo:=GCFREE
I attempted this loop:
Dim i As Long
Dim rng As Range
LastRow = .Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To nbr_col Step 1
Set rng = Range("i2:i" & LastRow)
.Names.Add Name:=.Cells(1, i).Value, RefersTo:=rng
Next i
I get a 1004 error. How can this be solved ? Thanks.
The RefersTo parameter should be a string rather than a range - the string being the address of the range. Sample code might look something like this (but you might want to stick to your lastRow method rather than UsedRange):
Dim col As Range
For Each col In Sheet1.UsedRange.Columns
With Sheet1.Names 'or ThisWorkbook.Names for global scope.
'Remove any existing name.
On Error Resume Next
.Item(CStr(col.Cells(1))).Delete
On Error GoTo 0
'Add the new name.
.Add _
Name:=col.Cells(1).Value, _
RefersToR1C1:="=" & col.Address(ReferenceStyle:=xlR1C1)
End With
Next

I need to find the value of the last cell in column b of sheet1. This value will change weekly. I then want to take that value and find it in sheet2. Then I want to copy and paste all data below this found value to sheet3. I can't get past the first part with the following code:
Dim cell As Range
Dim rangefound As Integer
Dim lastRow As Long
lastRow = ActiveSheet.Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Set cell = Range("B:B").Find("rangefound")
rangefound = lastRow = Cells(lastRow, 2).Value
I've been struggling with the syntax for a month and really don't know what I'm doing.
try this
Sub test()
Dim cell As Range
Dim rangefound As Integer
Dim lastRow As Long
lastRow = Sheet1.Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
rangefound = Sheet1.Cells(lastRow, 2).Value
Set cell = Sheet2.Range("B:B").Find(rangefound)
MsgBox "The value was found in Sheet2!" & cell.Address
End Sub
The issues with your code were
using rangefound before it had a value, i.e. the order of the commands
using "rangefound" as a text instead of the variable
wrong syntax to assign a value to rangefound
not qualifying which sheet should be searched
Edit: To extend the code to copy the data below the found value to another sheet, use Offset to reference one row below. There are many different ways to do this, so using Offset is just one option.
Here is the complete code
Sub test()
Dim mycell As Range, RangeToCopy As Range
Dim rangefound As Integer
Dim lastRow As Long
lastRow = Sheet1.Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
rangefound = Sheet1.Cells(lastRow, 2).Value
' this is the cell with the found value
Set mycell = Sheet2.Range("B:B").Find(rangefound)
' now find the last row in Sheet2. We can use lastRow again,
' since it is no longer needed elsewhere
lastRow = Sheet2.Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
' set the range to copy to start one cell below rangefound
' to the end of the data in column B
Set RangeToCopy = Sheet2.Range(cell.Offset(1, 0), Sheet2.Cells(lastRow, "B"))
' copy the range and paste into Sheet3, starting at A1
RangeToCopy.Copy Sheet3.Range("A1")
End Sub
Note: I changed the variable name from "cell" to "mycell". It's better to use variable names that cannot be mistaken for Excel artifacts.
Another edit: If you need to paste into the next free row in Sheet3, use the techniques already established.
[...]
Set RangeToCopy = Sheet2.Range(cell.Offset(1, 0), Sheet2.Cells(lastRow, "B"))
' get the next available row in Sheet3
lastRow = Sheet3.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1
' copy and paste
RangeToCopy.Copy Sheet3.Range("A" & lastRow)
[...]
Note that I'm using the same variable for three different purposes. If that is too confusing, create three distinct variables instead.
I am trying to create a code that will search for a given column header and copy the contents of the column after first replacing all the blanks with a zero.
I have tried using the following code, but the second parameter for the range function at the bottom does not work when I try to use "lastrow".
lastrow is defined by the numeric last row value, but I cant seem to figure out how to combine that with the alphabetical reference that is given in dbt.address
`Sub replacezeros()
Dim dbt As Range
Dim lastrow As Range
'This is to define last row of array
Set lastrow = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)
Debug.Print lastrow.Row
'This is for Debit
Set dbt = Range("A1:J1").Find("Debit")
Debug.Print dbt.Address
Debug.Print dbt.Cells
'Range(dbt.Address,).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks) = 0
End Sub`
Hoping to get this to replace all zeros only in that one column that is searched to select "Debit"
Not sure if I've understood your problem - try this:
Sub replacezeros()
Dim dbt As Range
Dim lastrow As Range
'This is to define last row of array
Set lastrow = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)
Debug.Print lastrow.Row
'This is for Debit
Set dbt = Range("A1:J1").Find("Debit")
If Not dbt Is Nothing Then 'avoid error if Debit not found
On Error Resume Next 'avoid error if no blanks
Range(dbt.Offset(1), Cells(lastrow.Row, dbt.Column)).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).Value = 0
On Error GoTo 0
End If
End Sub
Something like this should work... (untested though)
Sub replacezeros()
Dim dbt As Range, rData As Range, Cell As Range
Dim lastrow As Long: lastrow = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
'This is for Debit
Set dbt = Range("A1:J1").Find("Debit")
If Not dbt Is Nothing Then
Set rData = Range(Cells(1,dbt.Column),Cells(lastrow, dbt.Column))
For Each Cell In rData.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks)
Cell.Value = 0
Next Cell
End If
End Sub
I have some code in VBA that is attempting to delete duplicate transaction IDs. However, i'd like to ammend the code to only delete duplicates that have a transaction ID - so, if there is no transaction ID, i'd like that row to be left alone. Here is my code below:
With MySheet
newLastRow = .Range("A" & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
newLastCol = .Cells(5 & .Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
Set Newrange = .Range(.Cells(5, 1), .Cells(newLastRow, newLastCol))
Newrange.RemoveDuplicates Columns:=32, Header:= _
xlYes
End With
I was also wondering - in the remove.duplicates command - is there a way where I can have the column I want looked at to be named rather than have it be 32 in case I add or remove columns at a later date?
Here is an image of the data: I'd like the ExchTransID column that have those 3 blank spaces to be left alone.
Modify and try the below:
Option Explicit
Sub test()
Dim Lastrow As Long, Times As Long, i As Long
Dim rng As Range
Dim str As String
'Indicate the sheet your want to work with
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
'Find the last row with IDs
Lastrow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
'Set the range with all IDS
Set rng = .Range("A1:A" & Lastrow)
'Loop column from buttom to top
For i = Lastrow To 1 Step -1
str = .Range("A" & i).Value
If str <> "" Then
Times = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(rng, str)
If Times > 1 Then
.Rows(i).EntireRow.Delete
End If
End If
Next i
End With
End Sub
I have an Excel file with information in column A and column B. Since these columns could vary in the number of rows I would like to use the function offset so that I could print the formula in one time as an array rather than looping over the formula per cell (the dataset contains almost 1 million datapoints).
My code is actually working the way I want it to be I only can't figure out how to print the code in Range(D1:D5). The outcome is now printed in Range(D1:H1). Anybody familiar how to use this offset within a for statement?
Sub checkOffset()
Dim example As Range
Dim sht As Worksheet
Dim LastRow As Long
Set sht = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
LastRow = sht.Cells(sht.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Set example = Range("A1:A1")
For i = 1 To LastRow
example.Offset(0, i + 2).Formula = "=SUM(A" & i & ":B" & i & ")"
Next i
End Sub
Using the Offset(Row, Column), you want to offset with the increment of row (i -1), and 3 columns to the right (from column "A" to column "D")
Try the modified code below:
Set example = Range("A1")
For i = 1 To LastRow
example.Offset(i - 1, 3).Formula = "=SUM(A" & i & ":B" & i & ")"
Next i
One way of outputting the formula in one step, without looping, to the entire range, is to use the R1C1 notation:
Edit: Code modified to properly qualify worksheet references
Option Explicit
Sub checkOffset()
Dim example As Range
Dim sht As Worksheet
Dim LastRow As Long
Set sht = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
With sht
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Set example = .Range(.Cells(1, 1), .Cells(LastRow, 1))
End With
example.Offset(columnoffset:=3).FormulaR1C1 = "=sum(rc[-3],rc[-2])"
End Sub
You don't need to use VBA for this. Simply type =sum(A1:B1) in cell D1 and then fill it down.
If you're going to use VBA anyway, use this:
Sub checkOffset()
Dim example As Range
Dim sht As Worksheet
Dim LastRow As Long
Set sht = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
LastRow = sht.Cells(sht.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Set example = Range("A1:A1")
For i = 1 To LastRow
example.Offset(i - 1, 3).Formula = "=SUM(A" & i & ":B" & i & ")"
Next i
End Sub
The way offset works is with row offset, column offset. You want the column to always be fixed at 3 to the right.
I'm trying to make a program in the Excel VBA that inserts a formula into a column of cells. This formula changes based on the contents of the cell directly to the left.
This is the code I have written so far:
Sub Formula()
Dim colvar As Integer
colvar = 1
Dim Name As String
Name = "Sample, J."
Do While colvar <= 26
colvar = colvar + 1
Name = Range("B" & colvar).Value
Range("C" & colvar).Value = "='" & Name & "'!N18"
Loop
End Sub
As you can see, I want to insert the variable Name between the formula strings, but Excel refuses to run the code, giving me a "application-defined or object-defined error."
Is there a way to fix this?
You will need some error checking in case the sheets don't actually exist in the workbook.
it looks like you are looping through column B that has a list of sheet names and want range N18 to display next to it.
Something like
Sub Button1_Click()
Dim Lstrw As Long, rng As Range, c As Range
Dim Name As String
Lstrw = Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
Set rng = Range("B1:B" & Lstrw)
For Each c In rng.Cells
Name = c
c.Offset(, 1) = "='" & Name & "'!N18"
Next c
End Sub
Or you can just list the sheets and show N18 next to it, run this code in a Sheet named "Sheet1"
Sub GetTheSh()
Dim sh As Worksheet, ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Sheets("Sheet1")
For Each sh In Sheets
If sh.Name <> ws.Name Then
ws.Cells(ws.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Offset(1) = sh.Name
ws.Cells(ws.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Offset(0, 1) = sh.Range("N18")
End If
Next sh
End Sub
Thank you to everyone for your help! I actually found that I had just made a silly error: the line Do While colvar<=26 should have been Do While colvar<26. The cells were being filled, but the error manifested because one cell was being filled by a nonexistent object.
I did decide to use the .Formula modifier rather than .Value. Thank you to Jeeped for suggesting that.
