Textbox Searchbar and Listbox - 4 - excel

I have simple a stock list which is working with a textbox and a listbox.
When i write a word to textbox ( like flange ), i can see every stock name which is including same word at the listbox. ( i can see every stock name which is including flange word at listbox.)
Below codes work fine in my computer.
But when i send this excel sheet to another computer, Listbox is getting smaller and smaller when i type any keyboard key.
How could i avoid this error?
How could i work with this excel sheet in everyone's pc without having this problem?
Is anyone have an idea?

wrap text of a sheet with merged and not merged cells

I have a sheet with some cells are merged in rows, and some are not. I want to wrap all the cells and if rows contains merged cells, set the rows height to max of all cells height
In the excel file, you can find the sheet I am working with, what I want to have, the excel macro I wrote, what I get with that macro. I also put them here.
This is what I have: (column D is a hidden column)
This is what I want to have: (for the rest of the sheet see attached excel file)
I wrote an excel VBA macro to do the job, but there is no luck.
Sub MergeCells2()
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Dim allRange As Range
Dim xCell As Range
On Error Resume Next
Dim i_row As Integer
Dim nRowsToMerge As Integer
Dim rangeToMerge As Range
Worksheets("What I have").Activate
LastCol = ActiveSheet.Range("a1").End(xlToRight).Column
LastRow = ActiveSheet.Cells(ActiveSheet.Rows.Count, LastCol).End(xlUp).Row
Set allRange = Application.Range("a1", ActiveSheet.Cells(LastRow, LastCol))
allRange.WrapText = True
If allRange Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
nRowsToMerge = 1
Set heightToSet = Range("A2").RowHeight
For i_row = 2 To LastRow
Set i_rowRange = allRange.Rows(i_row - 1)
If (allRange.Cells(i_row, 1) = "") Then
nRowsToMerge = nRowsToMerge + 1
ElseIf nRowsToMerge = 1 Then
heightToSet = i_rowRange.RowHeight
Else
Set rangeToMerge = ActiveSheet.Range(ActiveSheet.Cells(i_row - nRowsToMerge, 1), ActiveSheet.Cells(i_row - 1, LastCol))
For Each xCell In rangeToMerge
cellrow = xCell.Row
If (rangeToMerge.Cells(cellrow, 1) = "") Then
If xCell.Value = "" Then
Range(xCell, xCell.Offset(-1, 0)).Merge
End If
End If
Next
rangeToMerge.RowHeight = heightToSet
heightToSet = i_rowRange.RowHeight
nRowsToMerge = 1
End If
Next i_row
End Sub
This is what I get:
I don't know what is wrong with it and I have to say that I don't know much about VBA programming.
I hope I was clear with my question.
Please help, I am working on this for days now :(
Cheers,
Eda
The idea:
Start by wrapping all cells, and using AutoFit for all rows. This way Excel will automatically set the row height properly.
Loop through the rows merging the cells and dividing the height of the row with the wrapped text over the rows to be merged.
This is how:
Sub NewMerger()
Dim r As Long, rMax As Long, re As Long, cMax As Long, c As Long, n As Long, h As Single, mr As Long
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
'Create a copy of the input
Sheets("What I have").Copy After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
On Error Resume Next
Sheets("New Result").Delete
ActiveSheet.Name = "New Result"
'merge and use autofit to get the ideal row height
Cells().WrapText = True
Rows.AutoFit
'get max row and column
cMax = Cells(1, 1).End(xlToRight).Column
rMax = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
'loop through rows, bottom to top
For r = rMax To 2 Step -1
If Cells(r, 1).Value = "" Then
If re = 0 Then re = r 'If we don't have an end row, we do now!
ElseIf re > 0 Then 'If re has an end row and the current row is not empty (AKA start row)
h = Rows(r).RowHeight 'Get the row height of the start row
n = re - r + 1 'calculate the number of rows
If n > 0 Then Rows(r & ":" & re).RowHeight = h / n 'devide the row hight over all rows
For c = 1 To cMax 'And merge
For mr = re To r Step -1 'Merge only empty cells
If Cells(mr, c).Value = "" Then
Range(Cells(mr, c), Cells(mr - 1, c)).MergeCells = True
End If
Next
Next
re = 0 'We don't have an end row now
End If
Next
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub

Paste incremental values in VBA

How can I run a loop in VBA so that the sequence looks like in green an pink color?
Because when I use this code is actually just paste all number 1. not increase.
ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Main").Range("E2:E" & iLast).FillDown
This may not be the cleanest way, but it will do the trick.
Sub InsertSequenceAndColours()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim rng As Range
Dim iLast As Integer
Dim i As Integer
Dim iSeq As Integer
Dim iColRGB(2, 3) As Integer
Dim iIncremColour As Integer 'used to determine the colour to use
Dim iColour As Integer
'set RGB Colours; change as needed
'colour 0 (green)
iColRGB(0, 1) = 146
iColRGB(0, 2) = 208
iColRGB(0, 3) = 80
'colour 1 (pink)
iColRGB(1, 1) = 255
iColRGB(1, 2) = 225
iColRGB(1, 3) = 236
'change to 0 if you want to start with colour 1 (pink)
iIncremColour = 1
'declare worksheet to work on
Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(Sheet1.Name)
With ws
'find last row
iLast = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
'loop through column C
For i = 2 To iLast
iSeq = iSeq + 1
If .Cells(i, 3).Value <> .Cells(i - 1, 3).Value Then
iSeq = 1
iIncremColour = iIncremColour + 1
End If
'assign Seq. No. to cell (column E)
.Cells(i, 5).Value = iSeq
'find if iIncremColor is odd or even. output: 0 or 1
iColour = iIncremColour Mod 2
'assign colour to col C D E
.Range(Cells(i, 3), Cells(i, 5)).Interior.Color = _
RGB(iColRGB(iColour, 1), iColRGB(iColour, 2), iColRGB(iColour, 3))
Next i
End With
End Sub
It finds out the Seq "1" (Col E) by finding the first occurrence of "No" (Col C); Seq "2, 3" are just incremental (so it will work also with more than 3 occurrences).
Same with colour. For each "Seq 1" it increments a number; by checking if this number is odd or even it assign one colour or the other.
Please Note I use worksheet codename to work (if you're not familiar with it, please google it), which I strongly advise since it will work even if you decide to change the name of your worksheet in excel.
When VBA requests to work with worksheet name or index, you can trick it by using codename.Name or codename.Index.
Approach via array
You can fill an array and write it back to your target range:
Sub FlexibleRange()
Dim ws As Worksheet: Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Main") ' << change to your sheet name
Dim start As Long, last As Long, i As Long ' declare variables
start = 2: last = 100 ' <~~ change to your individual rows
Dim v: ReDim v(start To last, 1 To 1) ' variant datafield array, counter
For i = start To last
v(i, 1) = (i - start) Mod 3 + 1 ' assign values
Next i
ws.Range("E" & start & ":E" & last) = v ' write numbers to column E
End Sub
I got to solve it.
i use this formula
=MOD(ROW()-2,3)+1.
Thank's you all..appreciate your help. <3

Split cell values into multiple rows and keep other data

I have values in column B separated by commas. I need to split them into new rows and keep the other data the same.
I have a variable number of rows.
I don't know how many values will be in the cells in Column B, so I need to loop over the array dynamically.
Example:
ColA ColB ColC ColD
Monday A,B,C Red Email
Output:
ColA ColB ColC ColD
Monday A Red Email
Monday B Red Email
Monday C Red Email
Have tried something like:
colArray = Split(ws.Cells(i, 2).Value, ", ")
For i = LBound(colArray) To UBound(colArray)
Rows.Insert(i)
Next i
Try this, you can easily adjust it to your actual sheet name and column to split.
Sub splitByColB()
Dim r As Range, i As Long, ar
Set r = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("B999999").End(xlUp)
Do While r.row > 1
ar = Split(r.value, ",")
If UBound(ar) >= 0 Then r.value = ar(0)
For i = UBound(ar) To 1 Step -1
r.EntireRow.Copy
r.Offset(1).EntireRow.Insert
r.Offset(1).value = ar(i)
Next
Set r = r.Offset(-1)
Loop
End Sub
You can also just do it in place by using a Do loop instead of a For loop. The only real trick is to just manually update your row counter every time you insert a new row. The "static" columns that get copied are just a simple matter of caching the values and then writing them to the inserted rows:
Dim workingRow As Long
workingRow = 2
With ActiveSheet
Do While Not IsEmpty(.Cells(workingRow, 2).Value)
Dim values() As String
values = Split(.Cells(workingRow, 2).Value, ",")
If UBound(values) > 0 Then
Dim colA As Variant, colC As Variant, colD As Variant
colA = .Cells(workingRow, 1).Value
colC = .Cells(workingRow, 3).Value
colD = .Cells(workingRow, 4).Value
For i = LBound(values) To UBound(values)
If i > 0 Then
.Rows(workingRow).Insert xlDown
End If
.Cells(workingRow, 1).Value = colA
.Cells(workingRow, 2).Value = values(i)
.Cells(workingRow, 3).Value = colC
.Cells(workingRow, 4).Value = colD
workingRow = workingRow + 1
Next
Else
workingRow = workingRow + 1
End If
Loop
End With
This will do what you want.
Option Explicit
Const ANALYSIS_ROW As String = "B"
Const DATA_START_ROW As Long = 1
Sub ReplicateData()
Dim iRow As Long
Dim lastrow As Long
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim iSplit() As String
Dim iIndex As Long
Dim iSize As Long
'Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
With ThisWorkbook
.Worksheets("Sheet4").Copy After:=.Worksheets("Sheet4")
Set ws = ActiveSheet
End With
With ws
lastrow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, ANALYSIS_ROW).End(xlUp).Row
End With
For iRow = lastrow To DATA_START_ROW Step -1
iSplit = Split(ws.Cells(iRow, ANALYSIS_ROW).Value2, ",")
iSize = UBound(iSplit) - LBound(iSplit) + 1
If iSize = 1 Then GoTo Continue
ws.Rows(iRow).Copy
ws.Rows(iRow).Resize(iSize - 1).Insert
For iIndex = LBound(iSplit) To UBound(iSplit)
ws.Cells(iRow, ANALYSIS_ROW).Offset(iIndex).Value2 = iSplit(iIndex)
Next iIndex
Continue:
Next iRow
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
'Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
A formula solution is close to your requirement.
Cell G1 is the delimiter. In this case a comma.
Helper E1:=SUM(E1,LEN(B1)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B1,$H$1,"")))+1
You must fill the above formula one row more.
A8:=a1
Fill this formula to the right.
A9:=LOOKUP(ROW(1:1),$E:$E,A:A)&""
Fill this formula to the right and then down.
B9:=MID($H$1&LOOKUP(ROW(A1),E:E,B:B)&$H$1,FIND("艹",SUBSTITUTE($H$1&LOOKUP(ROW(A1),E:E,B:B)&$H$1,$H$1,"艹",ROW(A2)-LOOKUP(ROW(A1),E:E)))+1,FIND("艹",SUBSTITUTE($H$1&LOOKUP(ROW(A1),E:E,B:B)&$H$1,$H$1,"艹",ROW(A2)-LOOKUP(ROW(A1),E:E)+1))-FIND("艹",SUBSTITUTE($H$1&LOOKUP(ROW(A1),E:E,B:B)&$H$1,$H$1,"艹",ROW(A2)-LOOKUP(ROW(A1),E:E)))-1)&""
Fill down.
Bug:
Numbers will be converted to Text. Of course you can remove the &"" at the end of the formula, but blank cells will be filled with 0.
Given #A.S.H.'s excellent and brief answer, the VBA function below might be a bit of an overkill, but it will hopefully be of some help to someone looking for a more "generic" solution. This method makes sure not to modify the cells to the left, to the right, or above the table of data, in case the table does not start in A1 or in case there is other data on the sheet besides the table. It also avoids copying and inserting entire rows, and it allows you to specify a separator other than a comma.
This function happens to have similarities to #ryguy72's procedure, but it does not rely on the clipboard.

Function input and output
To use the above function, you would specify
the range containing the rows of data (excluding the header)
the (relative) number of the column within the range with the string to split
the separator in the string to split
the optional (relative) number of the "ID" column within the range (if a number >=1 is provided, the first row with no data in this column will be taken as the last row of data)
The range object passed in the first argument will be modified by the function to reflect the range of all the new data rows (including all inserted rows). The function returns True if no errors were encountered, and False otherwise.
Examples
For the range illustrated in the original question, the call would look like this:
SplitRows Range("A2:C2"), 2, ","
If the same table started in F5 instead of A1, and if the data in column G (i.e. the data that would fall in column B if the table started in A1) was separated by Alt-Enters instead of commas, the call would look like this:
SplitRows Range("F6:H6"), 2, vbLf
If the table contained the row header plus 10 rows of data (instead of 1), and if it started in F5 again, the call would look like this:
SplitRows Range("F6:H15"), 2, vbLf
If there was no certainty about the number of rows, but we knew that all the valid rows are contiguous and always have a value in column H (i.e. the 3rd column in the range), the call could look something like this:
SplitRows Range("F6:H1048576"), 2, vbLf, 3
In Excel 95 or lower, you would have to change "1048576" to "16384", and in Excel 97-2003, to "65536".

vba specific text copy to another tab

Having issues with some vba, if anyone can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated, currently my code is returning a full row of data and it is returning multiple rows, this is my current code.
Sub BUTTONtest_Click()
Dim c As Range
Dim j As Integer
Dim Source As Worksheet
Dim Target As Worksheet
' Change worksheet designations as needed
Set Source = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Two Years")
Set Target = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Two Years League")
j = 3 ' Start copying to row 1 in target sheet
For Each c In Source.Range("G6:K6") ' Do 50 rows
If c.Text = "OVER" Then
Source.Rows(c.Row).Copy Target.Rows(j)
j = j + 1
End If
Next c
End Sub
I need to look at each row and in each row if the word "OVER" appears I need it to return the information in the side bar e.g. column B I would need this to apply for each wee section e.g. Column C- F should return the number from column B and H-K should return G etc.
This?
Sub BUTTONtest_Click()
Dim c As Range
Dim j As Integer
Dim Source As Worksheet
Dim Target As Worksheet
' Change worksheet designations as needed
Set Source = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Two Years")
Set Target = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Two Years League")
j = 3 ' Start copying to row 1 in target sheet
For i = 1 To 3 'Number of ¿wees?
For Each c In Source.Range(Cells(6, 5 * i - 2), Cells(50, 5 * i + 1)) ' Do 50 rows
If c.Text = "OVER" Then
Target.Cells(j, 1) = Source.Cells(c.Row, 5 * i - 3)
j = j + 1
End If
Next c
Next i
End Sub
EDIT
If don't want repeated rows, try this one:
Sub BUTTONtest_Click()
Dim c As Range
Dim j As Integer
Dim Source As Worksheet
Dim Target As Worksheet
' Change worksheet designations as needed
Set Source = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Two Years")
Set Target = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Two Years League")
j = 3 ' Start copying to row 1 in target sheet
a = 1
For i = 1 To 3 'Number of ¿wees?
For Each c In Source.Range(Cells(6, 5 * i - 2), Cells(50, 5 * i + 1)) ' Do 50 rows
If c.Text = "OVER" Then
If a <> c.Row Then
Target.Cells(j, 1) = Source.Cells(c.Row, 5 * i - 3)
j = j + 1
a = c.Row
End If
End If
Next c

Normalizing Excel Grid Intersection data into a flat list

I am trying to get Excel data, which was mapped using a grid/matrix mapping into a de-normalized for so that i can enter the data into a database.
How do you copy data in a grid from one excel sheet to the other as follow illustrated below.
I was trying something like this... but as you can see, i am far off!
Sub NormaliseList(mySelection As Range)
Dim cell As Range
Dim i As Long
i = 1
For Each cell In mySelection
If cell <> "" Then
Sheets(2).Range("A" & i).Value = cell(cell.Row, 1).Value
Sheets(2).Range("B" & i).Value = cell.Value
Sheets(2).Range("C" & i).Value = cell(1, cell.Column).Value
i = i + 1
Next cell
End Sub
For Reference. I Updated my code..
Simply add the code, assign macro shortcut to the function
Select the range that contains the intersection data (not the row and column data)
Run macro (Beware, sheet 2 will have data added in normalised form)
If there are multiple headings that are needed i figured i would consolidate into one column then perform a "text to columns" after processing.
Sub NormaliseList()
' to run - assign macro shortcut to sub - Select Intersection data (not row and column headings and run)
Dim Rowname, ColumnName, IntValue As String
Dim x, cntr As Integer
Dim test As Boolean
cntr = 0
For x = 1 To Selection.Count
If Selection(x).Value <> "" Then
cntr = cntr + 1
Rowname = ActiveSheet.Cells(Selection.Cells(x).Row, Selection.Column - 1)
ColumnName = ActiveSheet.Cells(Selection.Row - 1, Selection.Cells(x).Column)
IntValue = Selection(x).Value
test = addrecord(Rowname, ColumnName, IntValue, cntr)
End If
Next x

I've got two posts, with usable code and downloadable workbook, on doing this in Excel/VBA on my blog:
http://yoursumbuddy.com/data-normalizer
http://yoursumbuddy.com/data-normalizer-the-sql/
Here's the code:
'Arguments
'List: The range to be normalized.
'RepeatingColsCount: The number of columns, starting with the leftmost,
' whose headings remain the same.
'NormalizedColHeader: The column header for the rolled-up category.
'DataColHeader: The column header for the normalized data.
'NewWorkbook: Put the sheet with the data in a new workbook?
'
'NOTE: The data must be in a contiguous range and the
'rows that will be repeated must be to the left,
'with the rows to be normalized to the right.
Sub NormalizeList(List As Excel.Range, RepeatingColsCount As Long, _
NormalizedColHeader As String, DataColHeader As String, _
Optional NewWorkbook As Boolean = False)
Dim FirstNormalizingCol As Long, NormalizingColsCount As Long
Dim ColsToRepeat As Excel.Range, ColsToNormalize As Excel.Range
Dim NormalizedRowsCount As Long
Dim RepeatingList() As String
Dim NormalizedList() As Variant
Dim ListIndex As Long, i As Long, j As Long
Dim wbSource As Excel.Workbook, wbTarget As Excel.Workbook
Dim wsTarget As Excel.Worksheet
With List
'If the normalized list won't fit, you must quit.
If .Rows.Count * (.Columns.Count - RepeatingColsCount) > .Parent.Rows.Count Then
MsgBox "The normalized list will be too many rows.", _
vbExclamation + vbOKOnly, "Sorry"
Exit Sub
End If
'You have the range to be normalized and the count of leftmost rows to be repeated.
'This section uses those arguments to set the two ranges to parse
'and the two corresponding arrays to fill
FirstNormalizingCol = RepeatingColsCount + 1
NormalizingColsCount = .Columns.Count - RepeatingColsCount
Set ColsToRepeat = .Cells(1).Resize(.Rows.Count, RepeatingColsCount)
Set ColsToNormalize = .Cells(1, FirstNormalizingCol).Resize(.Rows.Count, NormalizingColsCount)
NormalizedRowsCount = ColsToNormalize.Columns.Count * .Rows.Count
ReDim RepeatingList(1 To NormalizedRowsCount, 1 To RepeatingColsCount)
ReDim NormalizedList(1 To NormalizedRowsCount, 1 To 2)
End With
'Fill in every i elements of the repeating array with the repeating row labels.
For i = 1 To NormalizedRowsCount Step NormalizingColsCount
ListIndex = ListIndex + 1
For j = 1 To RepeatingColsCount
RepeatingList(i, j) = List.Cells(ListIndex, j).Value2
Next j
Next i
'We stepped over most rows above, so fill in other repeating array elements.
For i = 1 To NormalizedRowsCount
For j = 1 To RepeatingColsCount
If RepeatingList(i, j) = "" Then
RepeatingList(i, j) = RepeatingList(i - 1, j)
End If
Next j
Next i
'Fill in each element of the first dimension of the normalizing array
'with the former column header (which is now another row label) and the data.
With ColsToNormalize
For i = 1 To .Rows.Count
For j = 1 To .Columns.Count
NormalizedList(((i - 1) * NormalizingColsCount) + j, 1) = .Cells(1, j)
NormalizedList(((i - 1) * NormalizingColsCount) + j, 2) = .Cells(i, j)
Next j
Next i
End With
'Put the normal data in the same workbook, or a new one.
If NewWorkbook Then
Set wbTarget = Workbooks.Add
Set wsTarget = wbTarget.Worksheets(1)
Else
Set wbSource = List.Parent.Parent
With wbSource.Worksheets
Set wsTarget = .Add(after:=.Item(.Count))
End With
End If
With wsTarget
'Put the data from the two arrays in the new worksheet.
.Range("A1").Resize(NormalizedRowsCount, RepeatingColsCount) = RepeatingList
.Cells(1, FirstNormalizingCol).Resize(NormalizedRowsCount, 2) = NormalizedList
'At this point there will be repeated header rows, so delete all but one.
.Range("1:" & NormalizingColsCount - 1).EntireRow.Delete
'Add the headers for the new label column and the data column.
.Cells(1, FirstNormalizingCol).Value = NormalizedColHeader
.Cells(1, FirstNormalizingCol + 1).Value = DataColHeader
End With
End Sub
You’d call it like this:
Sub TestIt()
NormalizeList ActiveSheet.UsedRange, 1, "Name", "Count", False
End Sub
