I am trying to write some VBA in excel that will clear all cells starting from the next empty cell in Column A (data starts from A2). For example, if A5 is blank then I want A5:P300 to all be cleared (as in all Formula and Data gone). And so on... so if A20 is blank then it deletes everything from A20:P300..
How would I go about writing this? I also need it to refer to the active workbook but a specific worksheet called ("Develop").
Thanks for any help provided.
Sub Clear()
Dim x As Worksheet
Dim rng, cell As Range
Set x = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("R&DCosts(2)")
Set rng = x.Range("A2:A340").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp)
For Each cell In rng
If cell.Value = "" Then
x.Range(cell.Address & ":P350").ClearContents
End
End If
Next cell
End Sub
Try this code, please:
Sub clearRange_Bis()
Dim sh As Worksheet, firstEmpt As Long
Set sh = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("R&DCosts(2)")
firstEmpt = sh.Range("A1").End(xlDown).Row + 1
If firstEmpt > 1000000 Then
sh.Range("A2:P300").Clear
Else
sh.Range("A" & firstEmpt & ":P300").Clear
End If
End Sub
A more simple solution
Option Explicit
Sub Clear()
Dim x As Worksheet
Dim rng, cell As Range
Set x = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("RDCosts(2)") ' you cannot use "&"
Set rng = x.Range("A2:A340", Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp))
For Each cell In rng
If cell.Value = "" Then
x.Range(cell.Address & ":P350").ClearContents
End
End If
Next cell
End Sub

I have formulas throughout a workbook that are returning an output if matched with X and "" if not. I am new to VBA and macro's and unsure of where to begin. But my goal is to have a macro that I could run that clears the formula if it is blank or "" across multiples sheets. I would note, I only want it to do this in certain columns of each sheet.
Example:
Sheet 1 has the formula in cells H10:K20, while Sheet 2 has the formula in AV8:AV400, etc. etc. The goal being to have it recognize "Sheet 1" is a range of H10:K20 where it would erase, Sheet 2 is AV8:AV400.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I had found another question that was kind of similar, but I could not figure out how to make it recognize different sheet names or specific ranges within my file. I have pasted the code I had found and tried to use below as well as the link here.
How to clear cell if formula returns blank value?
Sub ClearCell()
Dim Rng As Range
Set Rng = ActiveSheet.Range("A1")
Dim i As Long
For i = 1 To 10
If Rng.Cells(i,1) = "" Then
Rng.Cells(i,1).ClearContents
End If
Next i
End Sub
Maybe something very basic:
Sub ClearEmptyFormulas()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim rng As Range, cl As Range
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2")) 'Extend the array or loop all worksheets
Select Case ws.Name
Case "Sheet1"
Set rng = ws.Range("H10:K20")
Case "Sheet2"
Set rng = ws.Range("AV8:AV400")
'Etc
End Select
For Each cl In rng
If cl.Value = "" Then
cl.ClearContents
End If
Next cl
Next ws
End Sub
Or even a bit simpler:
Sub ClearEmptyFormulas()
Dim rng As Range, cl As Range
Dim arr1 As Variant: arr1 = Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2")
Dim arr2 As Variant: arr2 = Array("H10:K20", "AV8:AV400")
For x = 0 To 1
Set rng = Sheets(arr1(x)).Range(arr2(x))
For Each cl In rng
If cl.Value = "" Then
cl.ClearContents
End If
Next cl
Next x
End Sub
I am setting up a loop and i don't know what code to put in.
Below the code runs but at the end all the cells that have had a hyperlink inserted show cell 173 when there should be a link to cell 32 in the first cell then cell 47 in second and so on. I can see the problem but not sure on what to do.
Sub Hyperlink()
Dim rng As Range
Dim cell As Range
Dim t1 As ListObject
Set t1 = Range("Testtbl").ListObject
Dim i As Integer
Dim p As String
Set rng = Range("CourseName")
For Each cell In rng
For i = 1 To t1.ListRows.Count
If t1.ListColumns("UnLockedField").DataBodyRange(i) = "H" Then
p = t1.ListColumns("UnLockedField").DataBodyRange(i).Address
With cell
.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=cell, _
Address:="", _
SubAddress:=p
End With
End If
Next i
Next cell
End If
0:
End Sub
I am hoping that each cell in the range will have its on link to the cell that i needs to go to.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim cel As Range, lRow As Long
'next line determines the last row in column 1 (A), of the first Worksheet
lRow = Worksheets("Delta").UsedRange.Columns(5).Rows.Count
'iterate over every cell in the UsedRange
For Each cel In Worksheets("Delta").Range("E10:E" & lRow)
'cel represents the current cell
'being processed in this iteration of the loop
'Len() determines number of characters in the cell
If Len(cel.Value2) > 0 Then
'if cel is not empty, copy the value to the cell range (D1,D2,D3...) mentioned
Sheets("Traceability").Select
Traceability.Range("D3:D100").Select = cel.Value2 '--->Object not defined
End If
Next 'move on the next (lower) cell in column 1
End Sub
For copying a range of data I am facing an error of object not defined. Is my method to copy cell values correct ?
This is what I came up to finally
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim cel As Range, lRow As Long
Dim i As Integer
lRow = Worksheets("Delta").UsedRange.Columns(5).Rows.Count
rw = 3
'iterate over every cell in the UsedRange
For Each cel In Worksheets("Delta").Range("E10:E" & lRow)
If Len(cel.Value2) > 0 Then
'if cel is not empty, copy the value to the cell
Sheets("Traceability").Range("D" & rw).Value = cel.Value2
rw = rw + 1
End If
Next
End Sub
try:
Remove:
Sheets("Traceability").Select
Change:
Traceability.Range("D3:D100").Select = cel.Value2
to
Sheets("Traceability").Range("D3:D100") = cel.Value2
Its been a while since i had to do this, but if i remember right, selecting the worksheet does not assign it to a variable.
You've selected Traceability worksheet, then you try to do things on "Traceability" without telling it what "Traceability" is.
If that makes sense.
Goal: Have the column header of any text in red be represented in column F of the same row as the text.
Problem: Code currently references active row, and for some reason copies F2 (which is written in red). I know the code currently would be attempting to copy/paste over a cell a few times, and I'll work that out later.
Sub CopyRed()
Dim rng As Range
Dim row As Range
Dim cell As Range
Set rng = Range("G3:BF900")
For Each row In rng.Rows
For Each cell In row.Cells
If cell.Font.ColorIndex = 3 Then
Cells(2, ActiveCell.Column).Copy
Range("F" & (ActiveCell.row)).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End If
Next cell
Next row
End Sub
Not sure if I follow your logic. Your problem is that you reference active cell but you are not defining it or changing it other than through the pasting. I think you mean to reference cell (?)
Sub CopyRed()
Dim rng As Range
Dim row As Range
Dim cell As Range
Set rng = Range("G3:BF900")
For Each row In rng.Rows
For Each cell In row.Cells
If cell.Font.ColorIndex = 3 Then
Cells(2, cell.Column).Copy Range("F" & cell.row)
End If
Next cell
Next row
End Sub
You are never changing the active cell, so the copy command is always called on row 2 of the active cell, which much be in the F column. I changed the code below to fix the issue.
Sub CopyRed()
Dim rng As Range
Dim row As Range
Dim cell As Range
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet ' this should be improved to point at the correct worksheet by name
Set rng = ws.Range("G3:BF900")
For Each row In rng.Rows
For Each cell In row.Cells
If cell.Font.ColorIndex = 3 Then
cell.Copy
ws.Range("F" & (cell.row)).PasteSpecial
End If
Next cell
Next row
End Sub
I need to find out the first cell and the last cell of a vertically merged cell..
Let's say I merge Cells B2 down to B50.
How can I get in VBA the start cell(=B2) and the end cell(=B50)?
Sub MergedAreaStartAndEnd()
Dim rng As Range
Dim rngStart As Range
Dim rngEnd As Range
Set rng = Range("B2")
If rng.MergeCells Then
Set rng = rng.MergeArea
Set rngStart = rng.Cells(1, 1)
Set rngEnd = rng.Cells(rng.Rows.Count, rng.Columns.Count)
MsgBox "First Cell " & rngStart.Address & vbNewLine & "Last Cell " & rngEnd.Address
Else
MsgBox "Not merged area"
End If
End Sub
Below macro goes through all sheets in a workbook and finds merged cells, unmerge them and put original value to all merged cells.
This is frequently needed for DB applications, so I wanted to share with you.
Sub BirlesenHucreleriAyirDegerleriGeriYaz()
Dim Hucre As Range
Dim Aralik
Dim icerik
Dim mySheet As Worksheet
For Each mySheet In Worksheets
mySheet.Activate
MsgBox mySheet.Name & “ yapılacak…”
For Each Hucre In mySheet.UsedRange
If Hucre.MergeCells Then
Hucre.Orientation = xlHorizontal
Aralik = Hucre.MergeArea.Address
icerik = Hucre
Hucre.MergeCells = False
Range(Aralik) = icerik
End If
Next
MsgBox mySheet.Name & " Bitti!!"
Next mySheet
End Sub
Suppose you merged B2 down to B50.
Then, start cell address will be:
MsgBox Range("B2").MergeArea.Cells(1, 1).Address
End cell address will be:
With Range("B2").MergeArea
MsgBox .Cells(.Rows.Count, .Columns.Count).Address
End With
You can put address of any cell of merged area in place of B2 in above code.
Well, assuming you know the address of one of the cells in the merged range, you could just select the offset from that range and get the row/column:
Sub GetMergedRows()
Range("A7").Select 'this assumes you know at least one cell in a merged range.
ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 0).Select
iStartRow = ActiveCell.Row + 1
Range("A7").Select
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
iEndRow = ActiveCell.Row - 1
MsgBox iStartRow & ":" & iEndRow
End Sub
The code above will throw errors if the offset row cannot be selected (i.e. if the merged rows are A1 through whatever) so you will want to add error handling that tells the code if it can't offset up, the top rows must be 1 and if it can't go down, the bottom row must be 65,536. This code is also just one dimensional so you might want to add the x-axis as well.
If you want the cell references as strings, you can use something like this, where Location, StartCell, and EndCell are string variables.
Location = Selection.Address(False, False)
Colon = InStr(Location, ":")
If Colon <> 0 Then
StartCell = Left(Location, Colon - 1)
EndCell = Mid(Location, Colon + 1)
End If
If you want to set them as ranges, you could add this, where StartRange and EndRange are Range objects.
set StartRange = Range(StartCell)
set EndRange = Range (EndCell)
If you intend to loop through the merged cells, try this.
Sub LoopThroughMergedArea()
Dim rng As Range, c As Range
Set rng = [F5]
For Each c In rng.MergeArea
'Your code goes here
Debug.Print c.Address'<-Sample code
Next c
End Sub
