For loop slower with every new loop - excel

I built an add-in that matches descriptions to a word list library in a different document.
My loop does the same thing over and over, but one loop takes just over a second to complete where 10 takes around 3 seconds per iteration, with 20 it goes to an average of 4 seconds, but 200 takes hours to complete.
A snippet of the code:
For Each rRow In CoAsh.Range(matchRange.Address).Rows
pctDone = i / rowCount
With frmProgress
.LabelCaption.Caption = "Processing account " & i & " of " & rowCount
.LabelProgress.Width = pctDone * (.FrameProgress.Width)
.LabelPercent = Round(pctDone * 100, 0) & "%"
End With
DoEvents
accArray = sh.Range("A2:A" & lRow).Value
For b = LBound(accArray) To UBound(accArray)
accString = accArray(b, 1)
sh.Cells(b + 1, 3).Value = levenshtein(CoAsh.Cells(rRow.Row, AccCol), accString, True)
Next b
sh.Select
sh.AutoFilter.Sort.SortFields.Clear
sh.AutoFilter.Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=Range("C1:C" & lRow), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlDescending, DataOption:=xlSortTextAsNumbers
With sh.AutoFilter.Sort
.Header = xlYes
.MatchCase = False
.Orientation = xlTopToBottom
.SortMethod = xlPinYin
.Apply
End With
sh.Range("B2:B6").Copy
sh.Range("I2").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
Application.CutCopyMode = False
sh.Range("$I$2:$I$6").RemoveDuplicates Columns:=1, Header:=xlNo
sh.Range("I2:I6").Copy
CoAsh.Select
CoAsh.Cells(rRow.Row, 8).Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteAll, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=True
i = i + 1

Excel VBA Reformat Data

I have some data that will always be 8 columns (A-H) the number of rows could be different every time (Dynamic).
If the string in column A ends with:
"IT", "LN" or "SJ" then the row value in Column G needs to be divided by 100.
If the string ends in "KK" the value in Column G needs to be
divided by 1000.
Otherwise no math operation to the row needs to be performed.
The data also needs to be sorted alphabetically by column C then by column H.
After this is done the header row (1). Can be deleted.
What I have so far "works" but it results in a very long list of 0.0000 values in column G that makes copying out the cleaned data difficult.
Would anyone be able to show me a more efficient solution?

Desired Output Data:
Please, try the next compact and fast code. It will place the range to be processed in an array and drop down the processed result at the end. Now it returns overwriting the existing range. It can be easily adapted to return in another sheet:
Sub processRangeAH()
Dim sh As Worksheet, lastR As Long, rng As Range, arr, i As Long
Set sh = ActiveSheet
lastR = sh.Range("A" & sh.rows.count).End(xlUp).row
Set rng = sh.Range("A1:H" & lastR)
rng.Sort Key1:=sh.Range("H1"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlYes
arr = rng.Value2
For i = 2 To UBound(arr)
Select Case UCase(Right(arr(i, 1), 2))
Case "IT", "LN", "SJ": arr(i, 7) = arr(i, 7) / 100
Case "KK": arr(i, 7) = arr(i, 7) / 1000
End Select
Next i
rng.Value2 = arr
rng.Sort Key1:=sh.Range("C1"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlYes
sh.Range("G2:G" & lastR).NumberFormat = "0.0000"
sh.rows(1).Delete
End Sub
I posted this answer some hours before, when I left my office, but by mistake, in another thread...
Just to see how an array can be used, in order to increase the speed for larger range.
Try this. It copies everything to a new sheet so you don't lose the original data. Could be sped up if you have lots of data.
Sub x()
Dim ws As Worksheet, r As Long
Set ws = Worksheets.Add
Sheet1.Range("A1").CurrentRegion.Copy ws.Range("A1") 'assumes data on sheet1 (code name, change to suit)
For r = 2 To ws.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Select Case Right(ws.Cells(r, 1), 2)
Case "IT", "LN", "SJ": ws.Cells(r, "G").Value = ws.Cells(r, "G").Value / 100
Case "KK": ws.Cells(r, "G").Value = ws.Cells(r, "G").Value / 1000
End Select
Next r
With ws.Sort
.SortFields.Clear
.SortFields.Add2 Key:=ws.Range("C2:C" & ws.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, DataOption:=xlSortNormal
.SortFields.Add2 Key:=Range("H2:H" & ws.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, DataOption:=xlSortNormal
.SetRange Range("A1:H" & ws.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row)

Sort ranges from 2 columns repeatedly in vba

With below code I could sort data (marked with blue background) from 2 columns based on "B" column. Similarly I want to repeat the same for each blue block. I've highlighted cells manually just for illustration. Any help will be appreciated.
Code:
Sub SortRanges()
Dim firstcell As String
With Columns("B")
.Find(what:="*", after:=.Cells(1, 1), LookIn:=xlValues).Activate
firstcell = ActiveCell.Row
End With
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToLeft)).Select
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet4").Sort.SortFields.Clear
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet4").Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=Range("B" & firstcell & ":B" & firstcell + 5), _
SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, DataOption:=xlSortNormal
With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet4").Sort
.SetRange Range("A" & firstcell & ":B" & firstcell + 5)
.Header = xlGuess
.MatchCase = False
.Orientation = xlTopToBottom
.SortMethod = xlPinYin
.Apply
End With
End Sub
Try a loop down your column and, as it looks like everything is blocks of 5, do something like:
lr = cells(rows.count,1).end(xlup).row
For i = 1 to lr
if cells(i,1).interior.color = Blue Then `FIX THIS TO MATCH THE BLUE YOU WANT
Range(Cells(i,1),Cells(i+5,2)).Sort key1:=Range(Cells(i,2),Cells(i+5,2)), order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlNo
i=i+5
End if
next i
I may have not understood the part about your highlighting... if that blue is the "highlight" then you can modify the above such that:
lr = cells(rows.count,1).end(xlup).row
For i = 1 to lr
if not isempty(cells(i,2)) Then
Range(Cells(i,1),Cells(i+5,2)).Sort key1:=Range(Cells(i,2),Cells(i+5,2)), order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlNo
i=i+5
End if
next i
One more thing... if you can just run 2 sorts in sequence, second should be your final sort, like:
lr = cells(rows.count,1).end(xlup).row
For i = 1 to lr
if not isempty(cells(i,2)) Then
Range(Cells(i,1),Cells(i+5,2)).Sort key1:=Range(Cells(i,1),Cells(i+5,1)), order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlNo
Range(Cells(i,1),Cells(i+5,2)).Sort key1:=Range(Cells(i,2),Cells(i+5,2)), order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlNo
i=i+5
End if
next i

Run-time error only after successful runs - Excel VBA

I have an Excel VBA macro that works successfully the first two times I run it, but the third time it gives this error:
Run-Time Error '1004'
The sort reference is not valid. Make sure that it's within the data you want to sort, and the first Sort By box isn't the same or blank.
If I restart Excel it works the first two times, then gives the error again. Why would this happen? Here's my code:
Dim rawData As Object
Dim report As Object
Dim areaCodes As Object
Set rawData = Sheets("RawData")
Set report = Sheets("Report")
Set areaCodes = Sheets("AreaCodes")
report.Cells.Clear
report.Cells.ClearFormats
stateCol = rawData.Cells(1, 1).EntireRow.Find(What:="state", LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False).Column
Dim MyRange As Range
Set MyRange = rawData.Cells(1, stateCol)
With rawData
lastRow = .Cells(Rows.Count, MyRange.Column).End(xlUp).Row
.Range(.Cells(2, stateCol), .Cells(lastRow, stateCol)).Copy
End With
With report
.Range("A3").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
.Range(.Cells(3, 1), .Cells(lastRow + 1, 1)).RemoveDuplicates Columns:=1, Header:=xlNo
End With
lastRow = report.Cells(Rows.Count, Range("A1").Column).End(xlUp).Row
report.Range("B3").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=COUNTIF(rawData!C[" & stateCol - 2 & "],report!RC[-1])"
Range("B3").AutoFill Destination:=Range("B3:B" & lastRow)
Range("B" & lastRow + 1).Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=SUM(R[-" & lastRow - 2 & "]C:R[-1]C)"
Range("C3").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[-1]/R" & lastRow + 1 & "C[-1]"
Range("C3").AutoFill Destination:=Range("C3:C" & lastRow)
Range("C" & lastRow + 1).Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=SUM(R[-" & lastRow - 2 & "]C:R[-1]C)"
Range("C:C").NumberFormat = "0.0%"
Range("A2:A" & lastRow + 1).Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
report.Range("A2").Value = "State"
report.Range("A2").Font.Bold = True
report.Range("A:A").HorizontalAlignment = xlCenter
report.Range("A3").FormulaR1C1 = "=INDEX(areaCodes!R2C5:R52C5,MATCH(report!RC[1],AreaCodes!R2C6:R52C6,0))"
Range("A3").Select
ActiveCell.AutoFill Destination:=Range("A3:A" & lastRow)
With report
newLastRow = .Cells(Rows.Count, Range("C1").Column).End(xlUp).Row - 1
.Range(.Cells(3, 3), .Cells(newLastRow, 3)).Copy
.Range("C3").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
End With
With report
.Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=Range("C2"), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlDescending, DataOption:=xlSortNormal
newLastRow = .Cells(Rows.Count, Range("C1").Column).End(xlUp).Row - 1
With .Sort
.SetRange Range("A2:D" & newLastRow)
.Header = xlYes
.MatchCase = False
.Orientation = xlTopToBottom
.SortMethod = xlPinYin
.Apply
End With
End With
you should qualify the range in your sort instruction, this will produce an error if the sheet report is not activated
With report
.Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=.Range("C2"), SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlDescending, DataOption:=xlSortNormal
newLastRow = .Cells(Rows.Count, .Range("C1").Column).End(xlUp).Row - 1
With .Sort
.SetRange report.Range("A2:D" & newLastRow)
.Header = xlYes
.MatchCase = False
.Orientation = xlTopToBottom
.SortMethod = xlPinYin
.Apply
End With
End With

Optimize slow VBA code

I have the following code - most of which was recorded with the macro recorder. It is slow and seems to be kind of unreliable (sometimes it takes about 1 minute and other times it takes much longer).
I am wondering if anyone here can help me clean this up and get it to run more efficiently.
Thanks!

Try combining the 2 for loops that you have at the bottom of the code. They both loop through the column B and run code when the same criteria is met.
With Sheets("Sheet2")
For Each cell In .Range("B2", Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp))
If .Range("A:A").Find(What:=cell.Value2, LookAt:=xlWhole) Is Nothing Then
Intersect(.UsedRange, cell.EntireRow).Offset(, 1).Copy Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, "L").End(xlUp).Offset(1)
cell.Interior.Color = vbYellow
End if
Next cell
End With
You can then delete the first loop
For Each cell In Range("B2", Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp))
If Range("A:A").Find(What:=cell.Value2, LookAt:=xlWhole) Is Nothing Then cell.Interior.Color = vbYellow
Next cell

excel vba copy data range, open new xlsx file rename sheet and save

I'm trying to clean up a bit of code and I was hoping SO could come to my rescue once again. I need to copy a range, open a new workbook with only one tab called "project code - Labels" (project code found in labels sheet cell A2 or A2 of new workbook). After pasting values and source formatting, I'd like to propmt the user to choose a save location, save the new file, close new workbook and return to the original workbook.
I have added comments for what I'd like to do in the code below
