I am trying to copy a text file into a cell, and everything works except that the cells AutoFit, which I don't want it to. I want it to stay the same width, but I am not sure how to do this. I guess it should be under Set SNRCode = Range("B2") but I have tried to both set the cell values and cancel autofit.
Dim arkNavne As Range
Dim cell As Range
Dim navn As String
Dim i As Long
Dim SNRCode As Range
Dim matchCell As Range
Dim targetSNR As String
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Worksheets("Overview").Activate
Set arkNavne = Range("B4:B14")
For Each cell In arkNavne
navn = cell.Value
Worksheets(navn).Activate
Set SNRCode = Range("B2")
For i = 1 To 500
If SNRCode <> "" Then
targetSNR = "_" & SNRCode.Value & ".lic"
Set matchCell = Worksheets("FilesImport").Range("A1:A200").Find(targetSNR, Lookat:=xlPart)
If matchCell Is Nothing Then
SNRCode.Offset(0, 1).Value = "NO MATCH"
Else
SNRCode.Offset(0, 1).Value = matchCell.Value
With matchCell.Font
.ThemeColor = xlThemeColorAccent6
.TintAndShade = 0
End With
End If
Set SNRCode = SNRCode.Offset(0, 2)
Else
Set SNRCode = SNRCode.Offset(0, 1)
End If
Next i
Next cell
End Sub
This will likely be a handy site for you, explaining different ways to set column width
Columns("A").ColumnWidth=10 or Columns(1).ColumnWidth=10
Range("B2").EntireColumn.ColumnWidth=10 or Cells(2,2).EntireColumn.ColumnWidth=10
You can also capture multiple rows by using " : ", for example
Columns(A:Z).ColumnWidth=10

I am writing a check in/out program in excel and have gotten te request that if a line contains "|0|" it should get a different font color.
I've tried with Instr and Cells().Characters but I cannot seem to figure out how to do it.
The cells can have a variety of rows of text. Which is easy enough to solve with splitting them on a return and having a for loop loop, but I cannot seem to figure out how to assign a different font color to a row of text that contains the required value.
Image for illustration of the data:
How do I best solve this?
Added information:
The goal of this is that on button press the whole line of text where the |O| is would be collored differently. Other lines of text that do not have this will remain the same color.
Like in this image as a concept

I need to be able to compare every cell in 2 worksheets but the data won't always be in the same row as new data is added and exported constantly.
Range on both sheets would be fairly large, so for now I have limited it to A1:AS150. Any instance where a match cannot be found I'd like to highlight the cell.
I have found this, which looks close to what I need but doesn't work (obviously, I have added the Else code in my working example).
Sub test()
Dim varSheetA As Variant
Dim varSheetB As Variant
Dim strRangeToCheck As String
Dim iRow As Long
Dim iCol As Long
strRangeToCheck = "A1:AS150"
' If you know the data will only be in a smaller range, reduce the size of the ranges above.
Debug.Print Now
varSheetA = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range(strRangeToCheck)
varSheetB = Worksheets("Sheet2").Range(strRangeToCheck) ' or whatever your other sheet is.
Debug.Print Now
For iRow = LBound(varSheetA, 1) To UBound(varSheetA, 1)
For iCol = LBound(varSheetA, 2) To UBound(varSheetA, 2)
If varSheetA(iRow, iCol) = varSheetB(iRow, iCol) Then
' Cells are identical.
' Do nothing.
Else
' Cells are different.
' Code goes here for whatever it is you want to do.
End If

So in these examples:
Search Sheet1.A1 in Sheet 2, IF = Match Then nothing ELSE Highlight Red. Then A2, A3 etc, Then B1, B2 etc, Then C1, C2 etc...you get the gist.
You mention in your VBA code that something will need to be done, but in your example your just mean that a cell will be highlighted.
This is already covered by Excel's conditional formatting feature. You can be conditional formatting on a formula (in your case you might use a Match() function).
I would advise you to start working with a =Match() formula, in order to learn how this works (you might use =MATCH(A1,$B$1:$B$2,0) as an example, the dollarsigns are used for indicating that the lookup values are not to change), do it on different sheets and then try to get conditional formatting working, first basically and then based on your formula.
Sub test()
Dim varSheetA As Worksheet
Dim varSheetB As Worksheet
Dim i As Long
Dim LR As Long
Set varSheetA = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
Set varSheetB = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet2")
LR = varSheetA.Range("A" & varSheetA.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To LR 'we start at first row of sheet 1
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(varSheetB.Range("A:A"), varSheetA.Range("A" & i).Value) = 0 Then varSheetA.Range("A" & i).Interior.Color = vbRed
Next i
'clean variables
Set varSheetA = Nothing
Set varSheetB = Nothing
End Sub
The code will count each single cell value from column A from Sheet 1 and will check if it exists somewhere in column A in Sheet 2. If not, then highligh in red.
Output after executing code with the data example you've posted:
UPDATE": I made a fakedataset. Notice row Captain America. Values from columns A and C are same in both sheets, but different on column B

For i = 1 To LR 'we start at first row of sheet 1
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(varSheetB.Range("C:C"), varSheetA.Range("C" & i).Value) > 0 Then
'Match found on Column C. Check A and B
MyPos = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(varSheetA.Range("C" & i).Value, varSheetB.Range("C:C"), 0)
If varSheetA.Range("A" & i).Value <> varSheetB.Range("A" & MyPost.Value Then varSheetA.Range("A" & i).Interior.Color = vbRed
If varSheetA.Range("B" & i).Value <> varSheetB.Range("B" & MyPos).Value Then varSheetA.Range("B" & i).Interior.Color = vbRed
End If
Next i
'clean variables
Set varSheetA = Nothing
Set varSheetB = Nothing

Output:

I am trying to hide columns (Z,AA,AB,AC) if one of dependent cells are blank. i.e. if Range1 is blank entire column Z is hidden, Range2 is blank then entire column AA is hidden etc.
I know I could implement simple If Else/ .EntireColumn.Hidden statment but I was thinking to use code like below to make it neater. Any suggestions how to make it work ?
Sub(test)
Dim cell As Variant
Dim i As Integer
Dim MyArray(1 To 4) As Range
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("ReturnedHoldMail")
Set MyArray(1) = Sheets("test1").Range("Range1")
Set MyArray(2) = Sheets("test1").Range("Range2")
Set MyArray(3) = Sheets("test1").Range("Range3")
Set MyArray(4) = Sheets("test1").Range("range4")
For i = LBound(MyArray) To UBound(MyArray)
On Error Resume Next
For Each cell In MyArray(i)
If Len(cell.Value) < 1 Then
cell.EntireColumn.Hidden = True
Else
cell.EntireColumn.Hidden = False
End If
Next
Next
End With
End Sub
If you want the ranges that are hidden to be independent of the ranges being tested for emptiness, try the following:
Sub test()
Dim cell As Range
Dim i As Integer
Dim MyArray(1 To 4) As Range
Dim HideArray(1 To 4) As Range
Dim will_hide As Boolean
Set MyArray(1) = Sheets("test1").Range("Range1")
Set MyArray(2) = Sheets("test1").Range("Range2")
Set MyArray(3) = Sheets("test1").Range("Range3")
Set MyArray(4) = Sheets("test1").Range("Range4")
Set HideArray(1) = Sheets("test1").Range("Range5") ' or eg. Sheets("test2").Range("Z:Z")
Set HideArray(2) = Sheets("test1").Range("Range6")
Set HideArray(3) = Sheets("test1").Range("Range7")
Set HideArray(4) = Sheets("test1").Range("Range8")
For i = LBound(MyArray) To UBound(MyArray)
will_hide = True
For Each cell In MyArray(i)
If Len(cell.Value) > 0 Then
will_hide = False
End If
Next
HideArray(i).EntireColumn.Hidden = will_hide
Next

I have a form that is changing all the time and I have boxes of text in column "C". Also some text in cells of column "C" is too long so I am wrapping it with my VBA. I want to make conditional page breaks that will read through my Print Area and insert page breaks after each empty row before heading. My VBA code below is working fine except for text being wrapped. So the problem is: If I set PgSize = 91 in Sub FitGroupsToPage() (that's an amount of rows could be fitted to each page) to 91 and don't wrap my text then everything works fine. However text must be wrapped to fit to my page. Then there is not 91 rows but less, according to the length of the text in wrapped cells. So number 91 is dynamic each time after hiding and wrapping Sub FitMyTextPlease() and Sub HideMyEmptyRows() and Sub SetPrintArea(). Number of rows can also be different on every page (depending of how much text there are wrapped on each page). Any ideas of how this issue can be fixed?

If standard row height is 15, then for 91 rows the total row height would be 1365. When text wraps one line, the row height becomes 30. So what you might try doing is defining 1365 as the total row height per page before inserting a break instead of 91 as the total number of rows.
You can determine the row height with Range("A1").RowHeight
I have column A with staff ids and hours worked in column K.
I would like if a staff id appears more than once to add hours worked and put the result in another column corresponding to the first instance of that staff id and the duplicates being 0.
This is for a monthly report and there may be over 2k records at any point.
As everyone else said, a Pivot Table really is the best way. If you're unsure how to use a PivotTable or what it's good for, refer to this SO post where I explain in detail.
Anyway, I put together the below VBA function to help get you started. It's by no means the most efficient approach; it also makes the following assumptions:
Sheet 1 has all the data
A has Staff Id
B has Hours
C is reserved for Total Hours
D will be available for processing status output
This of course can all be changed very easily by altering the code a bit. Review the code, it's commented for you to understand.
The reason a Status column must exist is to avoid processing a Staff Id that was already processed. You could very alter the code to avoid the need for this column, but this is the way I went about things.
CODE
Public Sub HoursForEmployeeById()
Dim currentStaffId As String
Dim totalHours As Double
Dim totalStaffRows As Integer
Dim currentStaffRow As Integer
Dim totalSearchRows As Integer
Dim currentSearchRow As Integer
Dim staffColumn As Integer
Dim hoursColumn As Integer
Dim totalHoursColumn As Integer
Dim statusColumn As Integer
'change these to appropriate columns
staffColumn = 1
hoursColumn = 2
totalHoursColumn = 3
statusColumn = 4
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
totalStaffRows = Sheet1.Cells(Rows.Count, staffColumn).End(xlUp).Row
For currentStaffRow = 2 To totalStaffRows
currentStaffId = Cells(currentStaffRow, staffColumn).Value
'if the current staff Id was not already processed (duplicate record)
If Not StrComp("Duplicate", Cells(currentStaffRow, statusColumn).Value, vbTextCompare) = 0 Then
'get this rows total hours
totalHours = CDbl(Cells(currentStaffRow, hoursColumn).Value)
'search all subsequent rows for duplicates
totalSearchRows = totalStaffRows - currentStaffRow + 1
For currentSearchRow = currentStaffRow + 1 To totalSearchRows
If StrComp(currentStaffId, Cells(currentSearchRow, staffColumn), vbTextCompare) = 0 Then
'duplicate found: log the hours worked, set them to 0, then mark as Duplicate
totalHours = totalHours + CDbl(Cells(currentSearchRow, hoursColumn).Value)
Cells(currentSearchRow, hoursColumn).Value = 0
Cells(currentSearchRow, statusColumn).Value = "Duplicate"
End If
Next
'output total hours worked and mark as Processed
Cells(currentStaffRow, totalHoursColumn).Value = totalHours
Cells(currentStaffRow, statusColumn).Value = "Processed"
totalHours = 0 'reset total hours worked
