So this is what I want to do:
For example, in the sheet named "Outputs", the A1 cell input is
= "abcd" & Input!A5 & "efgh",
where Input!A5 is the cell value of the different sheet in the excel file.
I want to make it change so that after executing all the methods after selecting the A1 cell as
= "abcd" & Input!A5 & "efgh", I want to change the A1 cell as, = "abcd" & Input!A6 & "efgh", and then = "abcd" & Input!A7 & "efgh" and so on. (So it's basically replacing the values as A1 to Ai)
I thought of using Replace function, by writing the replacing string as Ai, and replacing i with i +1 by starting with for loop.
But I don't think this is a right method.
Could anyone shed light on how to address this?
Thanks in advance.
Check this
InputWorksheetLastRow = 7 'place here your last row value
Set ws = Worksheets("Input")
For i = 5 To InputWorksheetLastRow
Worksheets("Outputs").Range("A" & i - 4).Formula = "=" & Chr(34) & "abcd" & Chr(34) & "&Input!" & ws.Cells(i, 1).Address(0, 0) & "&" & Chr(34) & "efgh" & Chr(34)
Next i

It may seem to be an easy one as i am novice at VBA. I am trying to fill the filtered blank visible cells with previous non blank hidden cell value in the same column. The Lookup formula is working fine on excel sheet but using it with variable range in VBA is giving Application defined or object defined Error on lookup formula line.
nlr = Cells(Rows.Count, 9).End(xlUp).Row
With Activehseet
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Range("A1:K" & nlr).AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:=""
Range("A1:K" & nlr).AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="P * Suite *"
Range("B2:B" & nlr).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).ClearContents
For Each c In Range("B1:B" & nlr).Offset(1, 0).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
n = c.Row - 1
c.Formula = "=LOOKUP(2,1/($B$2:B&n&<>""),$B$2:B&n&)"
I have already tried it with below too, but it didn't work
c.Formula = "=LOOKUP(2,1/($B$2:B " & n & "<>""),$B$2:B" & n & ")"
Please help me resolve this
EDIT: I have already tried this approach, but it didn't work either
c.Formula = "=LOOKUP(2,1/($B$2:B " & n & "<>""""),$B$2:B" & n & ")"
This is the correct approach for concatenating a string into another string:
c.Formula = "=LOOKUP(2,1/($B$2:B " & n & "<>""),$B$2:B" & n & ")"
However, there is a problem with this part of it:
... & n & "<>""), ...
That will place one double quote into the text. I presume you are expecting it to look like <>"" when parsed, which means the line should look like this:
... & n & "<>""""), ...
Why? Because in a string to put one double quote you need to put a double, double quote: "" = " (in finished string). Therefore a double, double quote becomes: """" = "".
Here is the corrected original code:
c.Formula = "=LOOKUP(2,1/($B$2:B " & n & "<>""""),$B$2:B" & n & ")"
Range("E2").Formula = "=" & column1name & "2" & "" | "" & column2name & "2"
I am trying to make formula in VBA. I want to set E2 =( A2 | B2) . I already used function to convert column A into variable column1name already. So VBA will read it as A. but I am getting error that highlight my "|" and saying
invalid character.
How can I solve this problem?
Range("E2").Formula = "=" & column1name & "2 | " & column2name & "2"
will return
=A2 | B2
// Edit according comments
Range("E2").Formula = "=" & column1name & "2 & ""|"" & " & column2name & "2"
will output
=A2 & "|" & B2
If your intent is to join A2 and B2 cell through formula using PIPE (|) character then you can try below code.
Range("E2").Formula = "=" & column1name & "2&""|""&" & column2name & "2"
Alternative via Join()
In order not to loose a clear view over multiple quotation-mark sequences,
I'd suggest to separate into tinier parts as follows:
Const PIPE As String = """|""" ' pipe character with quotation-marks
Sheet1.Range("E2").Formula = _
"=" & Join(Array(column1name & "2", PIPE, column2name & "2"), "&")
I searched on internet, without any help coming out of that...
I simply would like to be able to have my VBA code to write this formula in a cell :
=IF(C4="-"; "-"; Cars!C4*C4*Data!$C$8)
As you guessed, there is a page called "Cars" and one called "Data" where I pick the informations needed.
Of course, as it is a VBA code, the C4 will be 2 variables, one for the C and one for the 4 that will evolve...
Actually, I tried this :
Worksheets("Calculation").Range(Column & PosStartCalc + 1).Formula = "=" & "IF(" & Column & PosStartCalc & " = " & "" - "" & ";" & " - " & ";" & "Cars!" & Column & PosStart & "*" & Column & PosStartCalc & "*" & "Data!" & "C" & "8" & ")"
(The variable Column contains the column letter and the variable PosStartCalc contains the row number)
This hurts my eyes and apparently VBA's ones too as it gives the error "Run-Time error '13': Type Mismatch'
Could anyone tell me how to do that?
Thanks in advance !
Try the following, assuming the column variable is a string and row a long variable. I might not have all the variables right, but you'll be able to get what I meant to do here.
Sub test()
Dim Col As String: Col = "C"
Dim Rw As Long: Rw = 4
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Calculation")
Debug.Print "=IF(" & Col & Rw & "=""-"",""-"",Cars!" & Col & Rw & "*" & Col & Rw & "*Data!$C$8)"
.Cells(Rw + 1, Col).Formula = "=IF(" & Col & Rw & "=""-"",""-"",Cars!" & Col & Rw & "*" & Col & Rw & "*Data!$C$8)"
End With
End Sub
So what you might forget easily is to use the , as parameter delimiter in a VBA programmed formula. When you put this on your sheet Excel will automatically replace that with the appropriate delimiter for your region.
Another thing to keep in mind; whenever you about to use a string value in such an function, don't forget to wrap it in double quotes!
Don't forget to remove the Debug.print .... line. It was merely there to show the output :)
I have a problem with my codes below,
As you can see, I am trying to find the row value of a search. I have 3 different criteria ( they are defined before ) and 3 different ranges ( also defined before ). But I cannot find the rows unfortunately.
Here you can see the codes;
Gorev = Worksheets(WS_All).Cells(p, o).Value
SlideNo = Worksheets(WS_All).Cells(p, 34).Value
Egitim_Adi = Worksheets(WS_All).Cells(2, 3).Value
Check1 = Worksheets(j_WS).Range("A:A") 'Egitim_Adi Kontrolü için'
Check2 = Worksheets(j_WS).Range("B:B") 'SlideNo Kontrolü için'
Check3 = Worksheets(j_WS).Range("C:C") 'Gorev Kontrolü için'
Satir_bul = Evaluate("=Match(" & Egitim_Adi & " & " & SlideNo & " & " & Gorev & ", Check1 & Check2 & Check3, 0)")
I am open to any suggestion..
You have a whole heap of problems there. WorksheetFunction.Match is not going to work because you are trying to replicate an array formula so Evaluate is definitely a better bet, but you need to construct the correct formula string for it. Unless you know whether the contents of the three cells will always be text or numbers, it is easier to just use cell addresses than to worry about enclosing the values in quotes:
Gorev = Cells(p, o).address
SlideNo = Cells(p, 34).address
Egitim_Adi = Cells(2, 3).address
Satir_bul = Worksheets(WS_All).Evaluate("=Match(" & Egitim_Adi & "&" & SlideNo & "&" & Gorev & ", '" & j_WS & "'!A:A&'" & j_WS & "'!B:B&'" & j_WS & "'!C:C, 0)")
If you can limit the ranges rather than using entire columns, you'll get better performance too.
Try it like this:
Satir_bul = WorksheetFunction.Match ( Egitim_Adi & " & " & SlideNo & " & " & Gorev & ", Check1 & Check2 & Check3, 0)
Here is a bit more about Match.
It will not work. You should include Union of the ranges in Match. Read more about Unions here.
You have three strings str1, str2, str3. You have three search areas: rng1, rng2 and rng3. Now, on every range you have to do the following (cell will be range variable):
For Each cell In rng1
'here you determine if one of your strings is contained uisng InStr function
'if the above condition is satisfied, then get the number of a row
Next cell
You'll do this then with rng2 and rng3.
Basically what I want to achieve is assigning the cell value from the other workbook into my code.
Customers send in a spreadsheet of goods they want to order and this spreadsheet is used for more than one purpose so it has many columns which are not needed for my purpose.
So I created the macro to look up and give me the value from certain columns and spit out a CSV file.
I then created a spreadsheet of my own with the column values all mapped out, I am trying to get the coding to lookup the cell value in my spreadsheet and knows which columns to be looking up on the customer spreadsheet.
I want it so I can just go in and change the values in the cells on
my spreadsheet instead of having to go into the coding and change the
columns value in my code.
ShipToSiteID = Application.WorksheetFunction.Trim(Range("Q" & counter))
AltShipTo1 = Application.WorksheetFunction.Trim(Range("G" & counter))
AltShipTo2 = Application.WorksheetFunction.Trim(Range("H" & counter))
AltShipToCity = Application.WorksheetFunction.Trim(Range("I" & counter))
'AltShipToState = Application.WorksheetFunction.Trim(Range("I" & counter))
AltShipToZip = Application.WorksheetFunction.Trim(Range("J" & counter))
AltShipToCountry = "UNITED KINGDOM"
RefNumber = counter - 1
UserId = LCase(Environ("username"))
ShipToSiteID = Replace(ShipToSiteID + AltShipToZip, " ", "")
Sheets(2).Select
Range("A" & counter - 1) = LineType & comma & RefNumber & comma & QName & comma & BlanketID _
& comma & BillToSiteID & comma & ShipToSiteID & comma & ContractID _
& comma & PONumber & comma & CaseID & comma & ShipVia & comma & RequiredDate _
& comma & Comments & comma & Priority & comma & TerminalID & comma _
& AltContactFirst & comma & AltContactLast & comma & AltPhone & comma _
& AltShipTo1 & comma & AltShipTo2 & comma & AltShipToCity & comma _
& AltShipToState & comma & AltShipToZip & comma & AltShipToCountry _
& comma & UserId & comma
A few suggestions...
To reference a value in workbook2 on workbook1, the easiest way to do this would be to copy the worksheet from workbook2 to workbook1. Then you can reference the value by typing "=" in the cell, and clicking on the cell that you want to reference.
Referencing in VBA code gives you some more flexibility. I'd suggest checking this good SO question and this one for more info. This may be more along the lines of what you want.
Unfortunately, if you reference a value from workbook2 on workbook1, there is no easy way to change the value of workbook2 from workbook1.
