Current Code is provided below. The user selects the Range of cells from which unique values needs to be found out. Instead of this, I know the Range of cells which is entire Column B of Sheet Database. I tried switching the code by the code below but it's giving "Run-time error '424': Object Required" where I am trying to count the number of rows with data.
Sheets("Database").Activate
last_row = Cells(Row.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row <- Error
Set rngTarget = Sheets("Database").Range("B2:B" & last_row)
If rngTarget Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Current Code:
strPrompt = "Select the Range from which you'd like to extract uniques"
On Error Resume Next
Set rngTarget = Application.InputBox(strPrompt, "Get Range", Type:=8)
On Error GoTo 0
If rngTarget Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Changed Code: (Doesn't work - Gives Run-Time Error)
Sheets("Database").Activate
last_row = Cells(Row.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row <- Error
Set rngTarget = Sheets("Database").Range("B2:B" & last_row)
If rngTarget Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
rngTarget function should contain the range of cells from which unique values needs to be found out.

To get you started, you have refered to Row instead of a range object representing all Rows. Follow the links to see the difference :)
Next you have used .Activate and therefor not specified what worksheet you working from. A better practice would be to use something like:
With Thisworkbook.Sheets("Database") 'Can even be dereferenced from worksheets collection
last_row = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
Set rngTarget = .Range("B2:B" & last_row) 'Tricky if last_row is 1
If rngTarget Is Nothing Then Exit Sub 'Superfluous and can be deleted

I would like to copy the first 5 rows (to cell M7) after applying a filter in the table. I have tried a macro found on the internet, but it does not work in any way in my file.
Sub TopNRows()
Dim i As Long
Dim r As Range
Dim rWC As Range
Set r = Range("B16", Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
For Each rWC In r
i = i + 1
If i = 5 Or i = r.Count Then Exit For
Next rWC
Range(r(2), rWC).Resize(, 7).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Copy Sheet7.[M7]
End Sub
I tried to customize them, where my table has x rows (I operate dynamically) and 7 columns. The headings are in (B15:H15). However, they do not work all the time. The error pops up for me at
Range(r(2), rWC).Resize(, 7).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Copy Sheet7.[M7]
Try the following...
Sub TopNRows()
Dim rng As Range
Dim filt As Range
Dim topRows As Range
Dim currentCell As Range
Dim count As Long
Set rng = Range("B15", Range("B" & Rows.count).End(xlUp))
With rng
On Error Resume Next
Set filt = .Offset(1, 0).Resize(.Rows.count - 1).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
If filt Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "No records found!", vbExclamation
Exit Sub
End If
On Error GoTo 0
End With
count = 0
For Each currentCell In filt.Cells
If topRows Is Nothing Then
Set topRows = currentCell
Else
Set topRows = Union(topRows, currentCell)
End If
count = count + 1
If count >= 5 Then Exit For
Next currentCell
topRows.Copy Sheet7.[M7]

I am trying to search for values listed in a column from multiple sheets in my excel workbook. If excel finds a match I would like it to return sheet names of the tabs that had the value.
Here is what i have done so far. I decided to start off by using one keyword to search multiple tabs, copy and paste the sheet name. The code below only paste the first resulting sheet name when there are other sheets containing the same keyword. I would like to know how i can pull the other sheet names that contain the same keyword.
I would also like to know how i can set up the keyword to use information in Column A of the Field List.
Sub FinalAppendVar()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim arr() As String
Keyword = "adj_veh_smart_tech_disc"
Totalsheets = Worksheets.Count
For i = 1 To Totalsheets
If Worksheets(i).Name <> "Main" Or InStr(1, Worksheets(i).Name, " Checks") Or Worksheets(i).Name
<>_ "Field Lists" Then
lastrow = Worksheets(i).Cells(Rows.Count, 4).End(xlUp).Row
For j = 2 To lastrow
If Worksheets(i).Cells(1, 3).Value = Keyword Then
Worksheets("Field Lists").Activate
lastrow = Worksheets("Field Lists").Cells(Rows.Count, 4).End(xlUp).Row
Worksheets("Field Lists").Cells(lastrow + 1, 5).Value = Worksheets(i).Name
Worksheets("Field Lists").Cells(lastrow + 2, 5).Value = Worksheets(i).Name
End If
Next
End If
Next
End Sub
The following code should work for what you described.
A couple feedback items:
Tabbing out loops and if statements significantly improves code readability
Never reuse variable names (i.e. lastrow), it makes it hard to read and can cause issues that are difficult to find later on
Follow all Next with the loop variable (i.e. Next i), this improves readability and helps you keep track of the ends of loops
.Activate and .Select are generally never required in vba, its better to be explicit in what you are referencing

Dim pasteSheet As Excel.Worksheet
Dim keyword As String
Dim lastSearchRow As Integer
Dim lastPasteRow As Integer

' not sure if the next line is needed, looks like it pastes again immediately below the previous
pasteSheet.Cells(lastPasteRow + 2, 5).Value = searchSheet.Name
' to save time consider exiting the search in the current sheet since the keyword was just found

My goal with this code is to use a data set with data validation to filter information based on a value and then copy the information and paste it to a spread sheet that is named the same value. Ultimately I plan to build the code to loop through range E4:E25.
I am trying to do the following. I have several spreadsheets that are named something like "ITT_198763" where the ITT part stays the same but the number changes. I also have one tab called program where the 6 digit number is imported on row 40 (hence the RngToSearch below). I need the program to 1) find the "ITT" sheet for a certain 6 digit number, 2) identify the corresponding row in the "Program" tab, and copy information from the "ITT" tab to row 41 of the identified column. I will be copying more information from the ITT sheet to the specified column, but for now I am just trying to get it to work once.
From the MsgBox, I know it identifies the correct prjNumber (the 6 digit number), but I get the runtime 1004 error on the line Set RngDest. Any help will be appreciated!
Sub Summary_Table()
Dim wks As Worksheet
Dim RngToSearch As Range, RngDest As Range
Dim foundColumn As Variant
Dim prjNumber
For Each wks In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
If ((Left(wks.Name, 3) = "ITT")) Then
prjNumber = Right(wks.Name, 6)
MsgBox (prjNumber)
Set RngToSearch = Sheets("Program").Range("C40:q40")
foundColumn = Sheets("Program").Application.Match(prjNumber, RngToSearch, False)
With Sheets("Program")
Set RngDest = .Range(1, foundColumn) 'Project Name
End With
If Not IsError(foundColumn) Then
wks.Range("E2").Copy RngDest
End If
End If
Next wks
End Sub
I tried the .cell instead with the following code (all else is the same) and now get runtime error 13 on the Set RngDest line:
Set RngToSearch = Sheets("Program").Range("C40:q48")
foundColumn = Sheets("Program").Application.Match(prjNumber, RngToSearch.Rows(1), False)
With Sheets("Program")
Set RngDest = RngToSearch.Cells(1, foundColumn) 'Project Name
End With
Yuo are getting that error because foundColumn has an invalid value. Step through the code and see what is the value of foundColumn
Here is an example which works.
Sub Sample()
Dim RngDest As Range, RngToSearch As Range
foundColumn = 1
Set RngToSearch = Sheets("Program").Range("C40:q40")
Set RngDest = RngToSearch.Cells(1, foundColumn)
Debug.Print RngDest.Address
End Sub
Add MsgBox foundColumn before the line Set RngDest = RngToSearch.Cells(1, foundColumn) and see what value do you get. I guess the line
foundColumn = Sheets("Program").Application.Match(prjNumber, RngToSearch, False)
is not giving you the desired value. Here is the way to reproduce the error.
EDIT (Solution)
You need to handle the situation when no match is found. Try something like this
Sub Sample()
Dim RngDest As Range, RngToSearch As Range
Set RngToSearch = Sheets("Program").Range("C40:q40")
foundcolumn = Sheets("Program").Application.Match(1, RngToSearch, False)
If CVErr(foundcolumn) = CVErr(2042) Then
MsgBox "Match Not Found"
Else
Set RngDest = RngToSearch.Cells(1, foundcolumn)
'
'~~> Rest of the code
'
End If
End Sub
You are looking for the Cells function, which has the prototype .Cells([RowIndex], [ColumnIndex]). The Range function takes either a string with a range name (like "A1", or a named range), or other range references.
I figured it out! Found column was the problem. Combining that with the help from the other commenters, the following works:
Sub Summary_Table()
Dim wks As Worksheet
Dim RngToSearch As Range, RngDest As Range
Dim foundColumn As Variant
Dim prjNumber
For Each wks In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
If ((Left(wks.Name, 3) = "ITT")) Then
prjNumber = Right(wks.Name, 6)
MsgBox (prjNumber)
Set RngToSearch = Sheets("Program").Range("a40:q48")
foundColumn = Sheets("Program").Rows(40).Find(what:=prjNumber, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole, MatchCase:=False).Column
MsgBox (foundColumn)
With Sheets("Program")
Set RngDest = RngToSearch.Cells(2, foundColumn) 'Project Name
Debug.Print RngDest.Address
End With
If Not IsError(foundColumn) Then
wks.Range("E3").Copy RngDest
End If
End If
Next wks
End Sub
Have a range of cell with column headings as weeks In the range of cells I want to look for a number, say
1 if it finds a 1 then look at a column in said row for a variable, 2 or 4 whatever Now I want to put a triangle (can be copy and paste a cell) in the cell that has the "1" in it then skip over the number of week variable and add another triangle and keep doing this until the end of the range. Then skip down to the next row and do the same, until the end of the range.
Then change to the next page and do the same thing... through the whole workbook.
I think I have it done, don't know if it's the best way.
I get a error 91 at the end of the second loop, the first time the second loop ends it goes through the error code.
The second time the second loop ends it errors.
I don't understand it runs through once, but not twice.
Sub Add_Triangles2()
Dim Rng As Range
Dim OffNumber As Integer
Dim SetRange As Range
Dim OffsetRange As Range
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set SetRange = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("G25") ' Used to stop the second loop in range

Worksheets(1).Range("A1").Select ' Has item to be pasted (a triangle)

I was not able to get an Error 91 using the data set I built from your explanation, maybe a screenshot of the layout could help recreate the issue.
However, I would do something like this, it will look at the value of each cell in the range C4:G25, and if it equals 1, it will paste the symbol stored in Cell A1.
Sub Add_Triangles2()
Dim Rng As Range
Dim rngSymbol As Range
Dim intFindNum As Integer
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set rngSymbol = Range("A1") 'Set range variable to hold address of symbol to be pasted
intFindNum = 1 'Used to hold number to find
Worksheets(1).Activate
For Each ws In Worksheets
Worksheets(ws.Name).Activate
For Each Rng In Range("C4:G25")
If Rng.Value = intFindNum Then
rngSymbol.Copy Rng
End If
Next Rng
Next ws
