I am doing a simple VBA script in Microsoft Excel which iterates a list of cars and a list of information about when the cars were refueled to provide an overview of how many kilometers each car is driving each month.
I make use of the Range.End property to calculate the number of rows with data and then loop through the indicies.
Set Data = Worksheets("Tankninger") ' Danish for refuellings
NumRows = Data.Range("A1", Data.Range("A1").End(xlDown)).Rows.Count
For x = 1 To NumRows
' Process data
Next
Everything seemed to be working fine, however I found that if someone applied a filter to e.g. the sheet with refuelling data - e.g. only showing data related to car A, then NumRows would be assigned the index of the last visible row.
Example: if the refuling sheet contains 100 records and the records related car A are located on row 50-60, then NumRows would be assigned the value 60 - resulting in my script ignoring the last 40 records.
Is there a way to make the Range.End property ignore any filter applied to sheet, or will I have to change the implementation to use a while-loop instead?
I ended up replacing the for-loop with a while-loop. This allowed me to access every cell regardless of any filtering applied to the sheets.
Set Data = Worksheets("Tankninger") ' Danish for refuellings
r = 2
While Not IsEmpty(Cars.Cells(r, 1).value)
' Process data
Wend
What you can do is add the following in your code to remove filters before you find the last row with data.
'Remove all filters
Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate
On Error Resume Next
ActiveSheet.ShowAllData
I am a complete VBA beginner and this is the first time I have had to deal with VBA. My project is simple- a user form which heavily relies on dependent drop down lists. I watched a ton of videos and wrote (more like copy-pasted) code which actually works just fine. My issue is that I need to edit part of my code to add a feature which I have trouble finding a video on (trial and error editing only took me this far).
In it's current state, my form has two dropdown lists drawing information from a sheet where data is arranged in columns as follows:
ITEM ID | ITEM | CATEGORY
The user picks a category and then the item list if filtered based on the previous selection. I now need to rearrange those columns are add another one, making it the 1st tier selection as follows:
LOCATION | CATEGORY | ITEM ID | ITEM
Just rearranging the columns alone breaks my code. On top of that I need to add the Location combobox, which would filter the Categories, which in turn filter the Items.
This is the code which handles the CATEGORY and ITEM list:
Private Sub cmbEquipCategory_Change()
Dim sh As Worksheet
Dim lastBlankRow As Long
Me.cmbEquipment.Clear
Set sh = Sheets("Equipment_List")
lastBlankRow = sh.Cells(Rows.Count, 3).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 2 To lastBlankRow
If sh.Cells(i, 3) = Me.cmbEquipCategory.value Then
Me.cmbEquipment.AddItem sh.Cells(i, 2)
End If
Next i
End Sub
It is my impression that I need to alter this code to draw data from columns 2 and 4 (it currently does so from 3 and 2) and write another almost identical block of code which handles LOCATION and CATEGORY. Any advice, resources or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
The way I do this is to used named ranges. So selecting your ITEM ID would lead to one of several ITEM ranges (I name them according to the ITEM ID options) which would lead to one of several CATEGORY ranges (I name these according to the ITEM options). The more options you have the more ranges you need. Named ranges aren't broken by adding in columns.
I have a sheet that the values of a range change each time I change a specific cell. Let's say that the cell C8 is an indentity of a person and column H the scheduled monthly repayments. I need to find the aggregate monthly repayments, hence on each possible value of C8 (and that actually means for every person as you can think of different values of C8) I need the aggegate of repayments, hence the aggegate of cell Hi Hence, keeping row i constant and changing cell C8, I always need to sum Hi. So I actually need sum(Hi) (i constant and the index of the sum is cell c8, so if c8 takes value from 1 to 200, I need the sum(Hi(c8)), again row i . Hi(c8) it is just a notation to show you that Hi depends on the value of c8. The actual formula in cell H10 is INDEX('Sheet2'!R:R,MATCH('Sheet1'!$C$8,'Sheet2'!F:F,0)))). H11 and onwards have the same formula with slight twists for the fact that the repayments are not always equal, but the index function remains the same.
Then, the total of H10 for all possible values of c8 is pasted in c17, the total of H11 is pasted in C18 etc. Please find some images below, maybe that helps to support what I try to achieve. enter image description here
I have the following code for that purpose. Note that the above example was just to explain you a bit the background, the cells and the range that changes are different.
sub sumloop()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayStatusBar = False
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("C8").Value = 1
Dim i, k As Integer
i = 1
k = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("C9").Value
Dim LR As Long
LR = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("C" &
Sheets("Sheet1").Rows.Count).End(xlUp).row
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("C17:C" & LR).ClearContents
Do While i <= k
If (Sheets("Sheet1").Range("J9").Value = "") Then
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("h10:h200").Copy
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("c17").PasteSpecial
Paste:=xlValues, Operation:=xlAdd, SkipBlanks:= _
False, Transpose:=False
Else
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("h9:h200").Copy
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("c17").PasteSpecial
Paste:=xlValues, Operation:=xlAdd, SkipBlanks:= _
False, Transpose:=False
End If
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("C8").Value = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("C8").Value+1
i = i + 1
Loop
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("C8").Value = 1
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.DisplayStatusBar = True
End Sub
The if inside of the loop is needed as the location of the first value of the range depends on some criteria which have not to do with the code. Also k denotes the maximum number of possible values. What I need is approximately 250.
While the code works, it takes approximately 40 seconds to run for 84 values of cell C8 and approximately 1.5 minute for 250. I tried some things, changed do while to for but nothing significant, used variable ranges instead of fixed ones like h10:h100, very similar to what I do with Sheet1.Range(C17:C&LR). Again no significant changes. As I am very new to vba I don't know if 1.5 minutes are a lot for such a simple code, but to me it seems a lot and this analysis is needed for 10 different combinations of 250 different values for cell c8, which means 15 minutes approximately.
I would appreciate if anyone can suggest me something faster.
Thank you very much in advance.

OK, A few things.
Firstly, Dim i, k As Integer doesn't do what you think it does, you need to do: Dim i As Integer, k As Integer
Secondly don't use Integer in VBA use Long so Dim i As Long, k As Long
Third the calculations are killing you. Turn them off with Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual at the start of your code and back on with Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic at the end of your code.
Now we are presented with really fast code but the problem that it doesn't update on each iteration which you need it to do. You can calculate just a range like so: Sheets("Sheet1").Range("h10:h200").Calculate so put that in just before you copy the range
There will be an even faster way to do this but I just can't seem to wrap my head around your requirements so I am unable to assist further.
Welcome to StackOverflow.
I must admit I got a bit confused by your narrative, as I did not fully understand if you are doing a sum(a,b,c) or a sum(sum(a,b,c), sum(d,e,f), ...).
In any cases, a trick that will dramatically accelerate your script is the use of arrays.
Performing calcs with VBA is not slow, but retrieving the data from Excel (communicating with the application) IS slow, and pretty much depending on the number of "requests", rather than the quantity of data requested.
You can use arrays to request the data from a range all at once, isntead of requesting the value of each cell separately.
Dim Arr() As Variant
Arr = Range("A1:E999")
It is as simple as this.
Give it a try and if you are still struggling let us know.
BONUS
If you are new to Arrays, keep in mind you can have a two-dimmensionnal array:
Dim 2DArray(0 to 10, 0 to 50)
Or a stacked array (an array of arrays):
Dim MyArray() as String
Dim StackedArray() as MyArray
Dim StackedArray() as Variant
You will need a 2D-Array for extracting the data from a range, but I feel you may need an Array of 2D-Arrays for your Sum of Sums.

How to achieve the same through pivot charts (no VBA)
Step 1
First, you must organize your data in a specific way, where each column is a field, and each row is a data entry. If you are not familiar with databases, this is the most tricky point as you may arrange your data in different ways.
Long story short, we will take an example where you have 3 customers and 4 dates.
So that is 12 data entries, which will provide the repayment value for each of the possible customer ID and date.
Step 2
Select that data and insert a PivotChart.
Note: you could insert a PivotTable alone, or a PivotChart alone. I recommend the option hwere you insert both, as managing your data will be more intuitive when working on the Chart. The table is updated at the same time you update the chart.
Step 3
Make sure the all your data is selected, including the top row which will dictate the name of each field (the name of each column).
Step 4
A new sheet has just been create, and you can see where both your PivotTble and PivotCharts will appear. Select the chart.
Step 5
A menu to the right will appear (it might have already been there, so make sure you selected the Chart and not the Table, as that menu would be slightly different).
Step 6
Drag and drop the field names into the categories as shown.
What you are doing here is telling Excel what data you want to see (Values) and how you want to break it down (per date, and per customer).
Step 7
By default dates data is always groupped quartile and year. To be able to see all the date we have data for, you can click the [+] near the data on the Table: this will show more details for both the table and the chart.
Step 8
But we want to get completely rid of the quartils and years. In order to achieve this, you need to right click any value of your date column in the Table, and choose "Ungroup" as displayed.
Step 9
Your data now looks like this.
Note the time axis is not on scale. For example if you hae monthly data and a month is missing, there will be no gap. This is one of the difficulties with Pivot data. This can be overcomes, but it is off topic here.
Step 10
Now we want to have a cumulative view of the data, so we want to play with the way the values are proessed by Excel.
Select the chart, then in the right panel: right click on the "Sum of Repayment" field, and select "Value Field Settings".
Step 11
In the "Show Values As" tab, select "Show values as" "Running Tital In".
Then choose "Date".
Here we are telling Excel that the value to display should be a cumulative total, cumulated according to the "Date" field.
Press OK.
Step 12
You now have what you are looking for. If you look in the Table, you have one column per Customer ID, and one row per date. For a given Date, you have the cumulative repayment made by a given Customer ID. At the very right, you have the Grand Total, which is, for a given date, the sum of all the Customer ID values.
Step 13
The Chart keeps showing the cumulative payment per CUstomer ID, and we cannot see the grand total.
In orer to achieve this, simply remove the "Customer ID" field from the "Legend (Series)" category area in the Fields Panel, as shown. (you can untick the Customer Id [x] box, or you can drag and drop it from the category area to the main list area).
Step 14
Now we only have the Grand total in the chart. But why?
If you display the "Value Field Settings" of Sum of Repyament" (Step 10), the first tab "Summarize Values By" will tell Excel what to do when several value meet the same Legend and Axis values.
Now that we removed the Customer ID field from the Legend area, for each date, we have 3 repayment values (one for each Customer ID). In the field settings, we tell Excel to use a "Sum". So it returns the sum of the 3 values.
But you could play around and return the Average, or even use "Count", which will show you how many records you have (it will return 3).
That is why pivot charts are so powerful: with only a few clicks and/or drag and drop, you can display a myriad of different graphics for your data.
For future interest, you should look online for Filters, and "Insert Slicer" (which is equivalent to filtering, but will add button directly on your chart: great when showing the data to colleagues and switch from one setting to another)
Hope this helped!
I am trying to merge two rows in Excel using VBA in order to create a new row with the combination values of selected rows using a factor x.
alpha 5 6 8 3 ...
beta 10 1 5 7 ...
With alpha and beta I want to create row ab70 (x=.7)
ab70 6.5 4.5 7.1 4.2 ...
(5*.7+10(1-.7)) ...
I would like to create this from a GUI in VBA selecting from a list the materials and chosing the factor x.
Thanks :D

The first version of this answer was more concerned with clarifying the requirement than answering the question. The second version is closer to an proper answer. Questions in the first version which were answered in comments have been deleted.
First version after removal of questions
This is not a site which can teach you to create a userform although you could get help with the code for a control. Try searching the web for “excel vba userform tutorial”. There are a number to choose from. I have not tried any so cannot make a recommendation.
A List box allows the program to provide a list from which the user can select one or more items. A Combo box allows the program to provide a list from which the user can select one item or enter a new value that is not within the list. You do not want the user to be able to specify their own material so you need a List Box. By default the user can only select one item which is what you want.
Second version
This will not be a complete answer. I will give you design ideas which you can then develop to meet your exact requirement or you can clarify your requirement and I will develop them a little more. I will give you some useful code but not all you will need for the complete solution.
You say that combining two materials would meet your immediate needs but in the longer term you wish to combine more. There are different approaches to addressing such a situation:
Design and implement a solution for the immediate need now. Redesign for the longer term later.
Design and implement a solution for the long term need now.
Design a solution for the long term then implement as much of the long-term design as seems appropriate.
None of these approaches will be correct in every case. If you are working to a deadline, approach 1 many be the only choice. Approach 1 may also be appropriate if you lack experience with the technology and wish for a simple implementation as a training exercise. When I was young, distributing a new version of an application to multiple users could be very expensive and approach 2 would often be the preferred approach. These days, approach 3 is normally my preference.
From your comments I deduce you are thinking of something like:
The two list boxes are filled with the names of the materials so the user can click one row in the first list box and one in the second to specify the two materials. Text boxes allow the user to enter the Proportion and the Name. I have used the blue “Rem” to represent the remainder (1 – x) which you may wish to display as a comment. You may not have thought of buttons. There should always be an Exit button in case the user has started the macro unintentionally. Clicking a button to save the mixture allows the user to check the four values first.
I think this could be an excellent design for the two material version. If we ignore the actual merging of the rows, there would be little code behind this form.
I do not know how long your material names are but I assume this design could be expanded for three or four materials by adding extra list boxes to the right with a Proportion text box under all but the last list. However, this arrangement would have a low maximum number of materials in a mixture. This will be acceptable if you do have a low maximum. You might also allow the user to mix mixtures thereby allowing an unlimited number of base materials in a mixture.
The code behind a form that allowed three or four materials in a mixture would be only a little more complicated than that behind the two material version.
I have two alternative designs that would perhaps be better with a higher maximum number of materials but it will not outline then unless you indicates that this first design is unacceptable.
I would expect any good tutorial to explain the various methods of loading a list box with values to I will not repeat them.
However you decide to handle the selection of materials and their proportions, you will need a routine to generate the new row.
I have created a worksheet “Material” and have set the first few rows and columns so:
I appreciate you have many more rows and columns but my data is adequate for a test and demonstration. Note in the heading line "Prop" is short for "Property".
You need to tell the routine which merges rows, which rows to mix. The user will select material B2 say. You could pass “B2” to the routine and let it discover the row from which it had come but this would make the routine more difficult to code than necessary. When loading the list boxes from this worksheet, values will be taken from column A of rows 2 to 12. I would expect your user form tutorial to explain that your code can identify the value selected by the user either by value (B2) or by index (4th row). You know the 1st row of the list box was loaded from row 2 of the worksheet so you can calculate that the 4th row of the list box was loaded from row 5 of the worksheet.
You need to tells the routine the proportions entered by the user and the name of the mixture.
Above I listed three possible approaches to deciding how much to implement. An addition to any of these approaches is the inclusion of flexibility that is not required but is as easy or is easier to include than exclude.
The declaration for my routine is:
Sub RecordNewMixture(ByVal WshtName, ByRef RowSrc() As Long, ByRef Prop() As Single, _
ByVal MaterialNameNew As String)
You will only have one worksheet holding materials and its name is unlikely to change so I could hardcode that worksheet’s name into the routine. However, it almost as easy to make the worksheet name a parameter and I think it makes the code tidier so I have make it a parameter.
The routine requires the array Prop() hold all the proportions including the last. So, for example, (0.7, 0.3) or (0.3, 0.3, 0.4). The user form will have to calculate the last proportion so it might as well pass the last proportion. I have made Prop() an array of Singles which I assume will give you adequate precision. If you do not understand the last sentence I can explain. Note that here "Prop" is short for proportion. Sorry for using "Prop" as an abbreviation for both "Property" and "Proportion". I did not notice until I the final checking of this text.
I needed a routine to test Sub RecordNewMixture so I have provided it as a demonstration. Note that I have coded and tested this routine without any involvement of the user form. It is always a good idea to develop and test your routines in isolation before combining them into the finished product.
After running the macro, worksheet “Material” has two new rows:
If you duplicate the new rows with formulae, you will find that the values are as you require.

I am trying to build a little workout log in Excel. I have a drop down list that allows me to pick which muscle group I exercised that day(legs, chest, back, etc.) and I have unique spreadsheet for each group in different worksheets. I am wanting to be able to choose a muscle group and have that specific spreadsheet pop up right next to it.
Is this possible? Will it also bring over any formatting/borders?
Thanks
Try this for an idea for you to refine further. I have assumed two worksheets and an ActiveX combobox, which I have called cmbMGrp, on worksheet 1 (WorkOut).
One called WorkOut
This contains your combobox 'dropdown' and the area to the right for the exercise schedule.
and one called Exercises
This contains the exercise schedule for each muscle group.
Add the following two bits of code to the Sheet module (WorkOut) i.e. the sheet that contains the combobox.
Private Sub cmbMGrp_Change()
Select Case cmbMGrp.Value
Case Is = "Biceps"
stCol = 1
Case Is = "Legs"
stCol = 5
Case Is = "Chest"
stCol = 9
Case Is = "Back"
stCol = 13
Case Else
stCol = 0
End Select
If stCol > 0 Then
With Sheets("Exercises")
lrow = .Cells(Rows.Count, stCol).End(xlUp).Row
.Range(.Cells(1, stCol), .Cells(lrow, stCol).Offset(0, 2)).Copy _
Destination:=Sheets("Workout").Range("I3")
End With
End If
End Sub
Private Sub cmbMGrp_GotFocus()
With Sheets("Workout")
lrow = .Cells(Rows.Count, 9).End(xlUp).Row
.Range(.Cells(3, 9), .Cells(lrow, 9).Offset(0, 2)).Clear
End With
End Sub
You should be able to match the code to the layouts I have used for this example, shown in the images. Change these to suit your requirements.
I think that for your task, you should forget dropdowns. Simply make one table, with rows corresponding to the days, and columns to exercises. You can easily group exercises by muscle groups. Eg. leg might contain flexors, extensors (quadriceps), ass (gluteus), calf (gastrocnemius) etc. Or you can name exercises by the machines you use. Keep it simple in one table, too much programming will distract you from your health effort, which is your real goal.
Btw. I'm quite good in Excel and have done quite amazing things with it, but I tell you, if you value your physical fitness, stay away from its Visual Basic.
