Traverse thru array elements and extract delimited values when condition is satisfied - excel

Question

I want to loop thru an array and extract its delimited values that match every date in a range. For e.g., in the picture below:
I have a date range, say 01-01 to 01-10.
I also have a list of strings (see second pic).
In the array below (see first pic), I have three different values delimited by a semi-colon.
For all matching strings (from second pic) e.g., SISBTXTRPR-(number) and date, I want to extract the last part of the array value.
Picture 1
Picture 2
So, for all array values that match "SISBTXTRPR-4649" (the string from picture 2) and a date (in this case 12-12), I want to extract "2h" from the array. The date range for each string, in this case, "SISBTXTRPR-4649" will be 10 days. I am racking my brain on how to do this :(
This is all I could come up with so far:
While i < UBound(sTimeStamp)
If StrComp(Trim(Format(Now(), "MM-DD")), Trim(Split(sTimeStamp(9), ";")(1))) = 0 And StrComp(Trim(Worksheets("KPIs").Range("AN" & iCounter)), Trim(Split(sTimeStamp(1), ";")(0))) Then
End If
i = i + 1
Wend

Answer 1

The next code will return occurrences for each string in 'Task' range matching the date from its corresponding 'sTimeStamp Array' string with the one from the 'Date Range Array'. Each occurrence will be add to the next column of 'Task' string column:
Private Sub findOccurrences()
Dim sTask As Worksheet, sStamp As Worksheet, sDate As Worksheet
Dim arrTask As Variant, arrStamp As Variant, arrDate As Variant
Dim i As Long, j As Long, arrS As Variant, El As Variant, dtRef As Date
Set sTask = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Task")
Set sStamp = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("sTimeStamp Array")
Set sDate = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Date Range Array")
arrTask = sTask.Range("A2:A" & sTask.Range("A" & sTask.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value
arrStamp = sStamp.Range("A2:A" & sStamp.Range("A" & sStamp.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value
arrDate = sDate.Range("A2:A" & sDate.Range("A" & sDate.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value
'____________________________________________________________________________
sTask.Range("B2:K" & sTask.Range("A" & sTask.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Clear
Do While i < UBound(arrStamp)
i = i + 1
arrS = Split(arrStamp(i, 1), ";")
For j = 1 To UBound(arrTask)
If arrS(0) = arrTask(j, 1) Then
For Each El In arrDate
dtRef = DateValue(Format(El, "MM-DD"))
If dtRef = DateValue(Format(arrS(1), "MM-DD")) Then
Debug.Print arrS(0) & " (row number " & j + 1 & "), interval """ & _
El & """ exists."
sTask.Cells(j + 1, sTask.Cells(j + 1, _
sTask.Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column).Offset(0, 1).Value = El
End If
Next
End If
Next j
Loop
End Sub
And the short variant working similar to your approach, finding the occurrences for Today date (if I correctly deduced what you intended to achieve), replace the looping part with this:
'______________________________________________________________________________
sStamp.Range("B2:B" & sStamp.Range("A" & sStamp.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Clear
sTask.Range("A2:A" & sTask.Range("A" & sStamp.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Interior.ColorIndex = -4142
While i < UBound(arrStamp)
i = i + 1
If StrComp(DateValue(Format(Date, "MM-DD")), DateValue(Split(arrStamp(i, 1), ";")(1))) = 0 And _
Not isMatchErr(CStr(Split(arrStamp(i, 1), ";")(1)), arrDate) Then
Debug.Print "OK for """ & Split(arrStamp(i, 1), ";")(0) & """ of row """ & i & """."
sStamp.Range("B" & i + 1).Value = "OK"
If Not isMatchErr(CStr(Split(arrStamp(i, 1), ";")(0)), arrTask) Then
rowOK = WorksheetFunction.Match(Split(arrStamp(i, 1), ";")(0), arrTask, 0) + 1
sTask.Range("A" & rowOK).Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
End If
Wend
And add the next function:
Function isMatchErr(strTime As String, arrDate As Variant) As Boolean
Dim k As Long
On Error Resume Next
k = WorksheetFunction.Match(strTime, arrDate, 0)
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
Err.Clear: On Error GoTo 0: isMatchErr = True
End If
On Error GoTo 0
End Function
Besides the message in Immediate Window, an "OK" will be put on column B:B for all occurrences (in 'sTimeStamp Array' sheet) and background of the matching cell (in 'Task' sheet will be colored in red... In order to do that, I added a new record and modified an existing cell, for "Today" ("01-12"). Please do the same in order to obtain at least two results in column B:B.
Please confirm that this is what you wanted. If not, please better clarify the need...
