Looping through an array in Excel - excel

Trying to loop through a sheets"data".Range"AM1:AS12" and copy the data to range beginning at BD1 as long as the data doesn't equal "#N/A"
My code works with copying the first column, but doesn't do anything with the data after that. Where am I going wrong?
Set S2 = Sheets("data").Range("AM:AM")
Set S3 = Sheets("data").Range("BD:BD")
Dim i As Integer, j As Integer
j = 1
For i = 1 To 12
If S2.Cells(i, 1).Value <> "#N/A" Then
S3.Cells(j, 2).Value = S2.Cells(i, 1).Value
j = j + 1
End If
Next i

Replace:
<> "#N/A"
By:
Not(Application.WorksheetFunction.IfNa(...))

This works when i tested it.
Sub CopyCell()
Set S2 = Sheets("data").Range("A:A")
Set S3 = Sheets("data").Range("M:M")
Dim i As Integer, j As Integer
For j = 1 To 2
For i = 1 To 12
If S2.Cells(i, j).Value <> "#N/A" Then
S3.Cells(i, j).Value = S2.Cells(i, j).Value
End If
Next i
Next j
Call DeleteBlank
End Sub
Sub DeleteBlank()
Dim x As Integer
Dim y As Integer
For y = 13 To 16 'Range numbers for the columns the data is copied to
For x = 1 To 10 ' Number of cells of data you want to loop through
If Cells(x, y).Value = "" Then
Cells(x, y).Delete Shift:=xlUp
End If
Next x
Next y
End Sub

the best thing to is not to check if it is equal to "#N/A"
The best is to check if it is an error : If Not (IsError(S2.Cells(i, 1).Value)) Then

Check values in columns, allowing for not all columns being present

I'm trying to clean up raw data exported from an online database.
There can be up to five columns. If all cells in a row have a value of 0, I want to delete that row.
When the user exports the data, they can choose to exclude columns, and the columns can be in any order.
For example, if the data contains only two of the possible five columns, I want to check just those two for 0s.
Could do a a big loop looking at every row and seeing if all 5 columns in that row are blank
Sub test()
Dim sh As Worksheet
Set sh = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("sheetname")
Dim LastRow As Integer
LastRow = sh.UsedRange.Rows.Count - 1
For i = 1 To LastRow
If (sh.Cells(i, 1).Value = "" And sh.Cells(i, 2).Value = "" And sh.Cells(i, 3).Value = "" And _
sh.Cells(i, 4).Value = "" And sh.Cells(i, 5).Value = "") Then
sh.Cells(i, 1).EntireRow.Delete
i = i - 1
Dim newLastRow As Integer
newLastRow = sh.UsedRange.Rows.Count - 1
If i = newLastRow Then
Exit For
End If
End If
Next i
MsgBox ("Done")
End Sub
#kyle campbell, thank you for your input! It didn't quite get me there, but it did get my wheels turning. Here is the solution I came up with, if anyone's curious:
I set a variable to represent the column number for each of the 5 possible columns using Range.Find. If the Find came up with nothing, I set the variable to 49, since the maximum number of columns this report can have is 48.
Then I did a nested If to test if the value in each cell was either 0 or null (because if the column number is 49, there won't be any data there). If all Ifs were true, I deleted the row. I also added a counter and message box, just to make sure this worked.
Sub DeleteRows()
Dim O As Long
Dim E As Long
Dim H As Long
Dim B As Long
Dim P As Long
lRow = Range("A1").CurrentRegion.Rows.Count
If Range("1:1").Find("SUM(OBLIGATIONS)") Is Nothing Then
O = 49
Else
O = Range("1:1").Find("SUM(OBLIGATIONS)").Column
End If
If Range("1:1").Find("SUM(EXPENDITURES)") Is Nothing Then
E = 49
Else
E = Range("1:1").Find("SUM(EXPENDITURES)").Column
End If
If Range("1:1").Find("SUM(HOURS)") Is Nothing Then
H = 49
Else
H = Range("1:1").Find("SUM(HOURS)").Column
End If
If Range("1:1").Find("SUM(BUDGET_RESOURCES)") Is Nothing Then
B = 49
Else
B = Range("1:1").Find("SUM(BUDGET_RESOURCES)").Column
End If
If Range("1:1").Find("SUM(PRIOR_YEAR_RECOVERY)") Is Nothing Then
P = 49
Else
P = Range("1:1").Find("SUM(PRIOR_YEAR_RECOVERY)").Column
End If
Dim j As Integer
j = 0
For i = lRow To 2 Step -1
If Cells(i, O) = 0 Or Cells(i, O) = "" Then
If Cells(i, E) = 0 Or Cells(i, E) = "" Then
If Cells(i, H) = 0 Or Cells(i, H) = "" Then
If Cells(i, B) = 0 Or Cells(i, B) = "" Then
If Cells(i, P) = 0 Or Cells(i, P) = "" Then
Rows(i).Delete
j = j + 1
End If
End If
End If
End If
End If
Next i
MsgBox "Macro complete, " & j & " lines deleted."
End Sub

How to create a nested loop to check if a value exists in a second list

I am trying to compare values in two lists. I want my code to compare a value in the first list and check all the entries in the second list. If there is a match then the code will print true next to the value in the first list and if not it will print false.
The problem I am having is that my code only compares values that are in the same row.
The code runs and I have tried it on a two smaller lists to make sure the data types are to same and there aren't any extra spaces or commas in the lists that would lead to a "False" output. I have also tried changing the order of the for and if statements but this doesn't work either.
Sub findvalues()
For i = 2 To 16
For j = 2 To 16
If Cells(i, 3).Value = Cells(i, 1).Value Then
Cells(i, 4).Value = "TRUE"
ElseIf Cells(i, 3).Value = Cells(j + 1, 1).Value Then
Cells(i, 4).Value = "TRUE"
Else
Cells(i, 4).Value = "FALSE"
End If
Next j
Next i
End Sub
Here are the two lists I am testing the code on
Slight mods to your code based on the data you provided in columns 1 & 3. As always, things could be improved but this should get you going ...
Sub findvalues()
Dim i As Long, j As Long, bResult As Boolean
For i = 2 To 16
strValueToLookFor = Cells(i, 1)
For j = 2 To 16
bResult = False
If strValueToLookFor = Cells(j, 3).Value Then
bResult = True
Exit For
End If
Next j
Cells(i, 6).Value = bResult
Next i
End Sub
... you may just need to flick the columns over so the first list searches on the second list or vice versa.
I don't see any need for VBA - formulas are the way to go - but to avoid two loops one could do this:
Sub findvalues()
Dim i As Long
For i = 2 To 130
Cells(i, 4).Value = IsNumeric(Application.Match(Cells(i, 1).Value, Range("C2:C130"), 0))
Next i
End Sub
Update: this does not cater for multiple matches.
There are many was to achieve that. one of them is by using IF & COUNTIF
Formula
=IF(COUNTIF($E$2:$E$6,A2)>0,"TRUE","FALSE")
Results:
VBA CODE
Option Explicit
Sub findvalues()
Dim i As Long
Dim rng As Range
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1") 'Change if needed
Set rng = .Range("A2:A130") 'set rng to includes values from column A, rows 2:130
For i = 2 To 130 'Loop from row 2 to 130
'Check if the values in column C includes in the rng
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(rng, .Range("C" & i).Value) > 0 Then
.Range("D" & i).Value = "TRUE"
Else
.Range("D" & i).Value = "FALSE"
End If
Next i
End With
End Sub

Excel VBA: How to transform this kind of cells?

I am not sure if the title is correct. Please correct me if you have a better idea.
Here is my problem: Please see the picture.
This excel sheet contains only one column, let's say ColumnA. In ColumnA there are some cells repeat themselvs in the continued cells twice or three times (or even more).
I want to have the excel sheet transformed according to those repeated cells. For those items which repeat three times or more, keep only two of them.
[Shown in the right part of the picture. There are three Bs originally, target is just keep two Bs and delete the rest Bs.]
It's a very difficult task for me. To make it easier, it's no need to delete the empty rows after transformation.
Any kind of help will be highly appreciated. Thanks!
#
Update:
Please see the picture. Please dont delete the items if they show again...
EDITED - SEE BELOW Try this. Data is assumed to be in "Sheet1", and ordered data is written to "Results". I named your repeted data (A, B, C, etc) as sMarker, and values in between as sInsideTheMarker. If markers are not consecutive, the code will fail.
Private Sub ReOrderData()
Dim lLastRow As Long
Dim i As Integer
Dim a As Integer
Dim j As Integer
Dim sMarker As String
Dim sInsideTheMarker As String
'Get number of rows with data:
lLastRow = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
j = 0
k = 1
a = 2
'Scan all rows with data:
For i = 1 To lLastRow
If (Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(i + 1, 1).Value = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(i, 1).Value) Then 'If two consecutive cells holds the same value
j = j + 1
If j = 1 Then
k = k + 1
a = 2
sMarker = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(i, 1).Value
Worksheets("Results").Cells(k, 1).Value = sMarker
End If
Else 'If not same values in consecutive cells
sInsideTheMarker = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(i, 1).Value
Worksheets("Results").Cells(k, a).Value = sInsideTheMarker
a = a + 1
j = 0
End If
Next i
End Sub
EDITION: If you want results in the same sheet ("Sheet1"), and keep the empty rows for results to look exactly as your question, try the following
Private Sub ReOrderData()
Dim lLastRow As Long
Dim i As Integer
Dim a As Integer
Dim j As Integer
Dim sMarker As String
Dim sInsideTheMarker As String
'Get number of rows with data:
lLastRow = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
j = 0
k = 1
a = 5
'Scan all rows with data:
For i = 1 To lLastRow
If (Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(i + 1, 1).Value = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(i, 1).Value) Then 'If two consecutive cells holds the same value
j = j + 1
If j = 1 Then
k = i
a = 5
sMarker = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(i, 1).Value
Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(k, 4).Value = sMarker
End If
Else 'If not same values in consecutive cells
sInsideTheMarker = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(i, 1).Value
Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(k, a).Value = sInsideTheMarker
a = a + 1
j = 0
End If
Next i
End Sub
If you can delete the values that have more than two counts, then I suggest that this might work:
Sub count_macro()
Dim a As Integer
Dim b As Integer
a = 1
While Cells(a, 1) <> ""
b = WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Range("A1:A1000"), Cells(a, 1))
If b > 2 Then
Cells(a, 1).Delete Shift:=xlUp
End If
b = 0
a = a + 1
Wend
End Sub
This should do it. It takes input in column A starting in Row 2 until it ends, and ignores more than 2 same consecutive values. Then it copies them in sets and pastes them transposed. If your data is in a different column and row, change the sourceRange variable and the i variable accordingly.
Sub SETranspose()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim sourceRange As range
Dim copyRange As range
Dim myCell As range
Set sourceRange = range("A2", Cells(Rows.count, 1).End(xlUp))
Dim startCell As range
Set startCell = sourceRange(1, 1)
Dim i As Integer
Dim haveTwo As Boolean
haveTwo = True
For i = 3 To Cells(Rows.count, 1).End(xlUp).Row + 1
If Cells(i, 1).Value = startCell.Value Then
If haveTwo Then
range(startCell, Cells(i, 1)).Copy
startCell.Offset(0, 4).PasteSpecial Transpose:=True
Application.CutCopyMode = False
haveTwo = False
End If
End If
'if the letter changes or end of set, then copy the set over
'If LCase(Left(Cells(i, 1).Value, 1)) <> LCase(startCell.Value) Or _
'i = Cells(Rows.count, 1).End(xlUp).Row + 1 Then
If Len(Cells(i, 1).Value) > 1 Then
Set copyRange = Cells(i, 1)
copyRange.Copy
Cells(startCell.Row, Columns.count).End(xlToLeft).Offset(0, 1).PasteSpecial
Application.CutCopyMode = False
'Set startCell = sourceRange(i - 1, 1)
ElseIf Len(Cells(i, 1).Value) = 1 And Cells(i, 1).Value <> startCell.Value Then
Set startCell = sourceRange(i - 1, 1)
haveTwo = True
End If
Next i
'clear up data
Set sourceRange = Nothing
Set copyRange = Nothing
Set startCell = Nothing
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Compare each and every cell in a colum by custom macro (unhandy for loop)

i'm currently trying to compare each and every cell in a column with each other in order to find duplicates. I wrote below code, i know it as possible via default Excel functions, but i would like to write a macro with the above mentioned function. Excel currently doesn't respond when i run my code, my guess is that i run a double for loop with 14K cells to compare is each resulting in 14.000*14.000 loops, which is kinda unhandy. Any help will be appreciated :).
Sub findidentical()
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer
Dim x As Integer
Dim ColumnG As Integer
x = 0
ColumnG = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(Range("G:G"))
'ColumnG is 14K cells long'
For i = 2 To ColumnG
For j = 1 + 1 To ColumnG
If Cells(i, 7).Value = Cells(j, 7).Value Then
x = x + 1 & Cells(i, 7).Font.Bold = True & Cells(j, 7).Font.Bold = True
End If
Next j
Next i
Range("L25").Text = "Amount of duplicates"
Range("L26").Value = x
End Sub
Try this:
Sub findidentical()
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer
Dim x As Integer
Dim ColumnG As Integer
x = 0
ColumnG = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(Range("G:G"))
'ColumnG is 14K cells long'
For i = 2 To ColumnG
For j = i + 1 To ColumnG
If Cells(i, 7).Value = Cells(j, 7).Value Then
x = x + 1
Cells(i, 7).Font.Bold = True
Cells(j, 7).Font.Bold = True
End If
Next j
Next i
Range("L25").Text = "Amount of duplicates"
Range("L26").Value = x
End Sub
First you need to make each command in the if statement its own line or separate them with : instead of &. & is a string concatenation not a command separator.
Second there is no reason to start Loop j at 2 it has already been compared to everything above. So start it at i+1

in vba how to define array and compare them?

i have 2 sheets , i want to find the same rows in 2 sheets , so i put the first row in array , and by a for next i define the first array ...then i define another array from second sheet , then i compare them .... why it doesn't work?
Sub compare()
Dim n(4) As Variant
Dim o(4) As Variant
Dim i As Integer
For i = 3 To 20 'satrha
For j = 2 To 4 'por kardan
n(j) = Sheets("guys").Cells(i, j)
Next 'por kardan
k = 3
Do 'hhhh
For Z = 2 To 4 'por dovomi
o(Z) = Sheets("p").Cells(k, Z)
Next 'por dovomi
If n(j) = o(Z) Then
Sheets("guys").Cells(i, 1) = Sheets("p").Cells(k, 2)
flag = True
Else
flag = False
k = k + 1
End If
Loop Until flag = False 'hhhhh
Next 'satrha
End Sub
Guessing from your existing code, my following code will copy the value from sheet "p" column B into sheet "guys" column A when a match is found.
Sub compare()
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer
Dim l As Integer
l = Sheets("p").Range("B65535").End(xlUp).Row
Debug.Print l
For i = 3 To 20
For j = 3 To l
If Sheets("guys").Cells(i, 2).Value = Sheets("p").Cells(j, 2).Value And _
Sheets("guys").Cells(i, 3).Value = Sheets("p").Cells(j, 3).Value And _
Sheets("guys").Cells(i, 4).Value = Sheets("p").Cells(j, 4).Value Then
Sheets("guys").Cells(i, 1).Value = Sheets("p").Cells(j, 2).Value
Exit For
End If
Next
Next
End Sub
Noted that I explicitly said Value in my code. That will copy the computed value (e.g. result of a formula) instead of the "original" content.
