I am working on a dynamic worksheet which the total rows and columns of content will be changing.
What I try to do is, making an active cell going through the worksheet. It starts from the very last column that has content (I used UsedRange here), and from the 7st row down to the last row not blank.
When 1) The active cell has a color filling of index 16 or 36; 2) The active cell has no value, the cell will fetch the value storing in the matching row E.
The loop will end when hitting column E (I haven't been able to go that far yet).
I will attach my code below for all possible help, since it complies but does not return any result...Thank you again!
Sub catchCurrentAutomated()
Dim column As Integer
Dim row As Integer
Dim Cell As Range
row = 7
column = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Columns.Count
Set Cell = ActiveCell
While range("A" & row) <> ""
If Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 16 And _
IsEmpty(Cell.Value) = True Then
Cell.Value = Cells(ActiveCell.row, "E").Value
ElseIf Cell.Interior.ColorIndex = 36 And _
IsEmpty(Cell.Value) = True Then
Cell.Value = Cells(ActiveCell.row, "E").Value
End If
row = row + 1
column = column - 1
Wend
End Sub
Something like this should work (untested)
Sub catchCurrentAutomated()
Dim col As Long '<< use Long not Integer
Dim row As Long
Dim c As Range, ws As Worksheet, lr As Long, indx
Set ws = ActiveSheet
col = ws.UsedRange.Columns.Count
lr = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).row 'last occupied cell in ColA
Do While col > 5
For row = 7 To lr
With ws.Cells(row, col)
indx = .Interior.Color.Index
If (indx = 16 Or indx = 36) And Len(.Value) = 0 Then
.Value = ws.Cells(row, "E").Value
End If
End With
Next row
col = col - 1 'next column to left
Loop
End Sub
I have a sheet where the first two columns have row and column addresses and the third column has integer values.
I would like to extract the highest value and it's corresponding address from columns 1 and 2 into a separate list on the sheet.
There may be multiple equal highest values in the third column. How do I get all of those into my list.
I'm a fairly new at Excel VBA.
This could be a start.
Sub maxIntAndOtherStuff()
Dim rng As Range, c As Range, i As Integer, x As Long, y As Long
rw = 1: cl = 3 'Apply starting row & column
Set rng = Range(Cells(rw, cl), Cells(Rows.Count, cl).End(xlUp))
For Each c In rng
If c.Value >= i Then
i = c.Value
End If
Next c
y = 9 'Apply column number for output
x = Cells(Rows.Count, y).End(xlUp).Offset(1).Row 'Finds the first empty row in that column
For Each c In rng
If c = i Then
Cells(x, y).Resize(, 3).Value = c.Offset(, -2).Resize(, 3).Value
x = x + 1
End If
Next c
End Sub
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.

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".
I have a column, which will contain a few rows of data, and then a blank cell.
I need a way to count the rows upwards in a column until a blank cell and sum the number using VBA. Any ideas?
I'm not 100% sure what you are asking. You say "sum the number" but do not specify if the number you want to sum is the number of rows counted or if you want to sum the value of the cells found.
-Edit-
Give this a try:
This will start at the bottom row and count upward until it finds a blank cell
Once a blank cell is found it will sum the cells between the last blank cell and the current blank cell.
-Edit2-
Added insert to the row under column headers so the first row also gets summed.
Sub CountUp()
Dim TotalRows As Long
Dim TotalCols As Long
Dim Col As Long
Dim i As Long
Dim n As Long
Rows(2).Insert Shift:=xlDown
TotalRows = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
TotalCols = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Columns.Count
'Assumes Data you want to sum is in the first column
Col = 1
Cells(TotalRows, Col).Select
For i = TotalRows To 1 Step -1
If Cells(i, Col).Value <> "" Then
n = n + 1
Else
Cells(i, Col).Formula = "=SUM(" & Cells(i + 1, Col).Address(False, False) & ":" & Cells(i + n, Col).Address(False, False) & ")"
n = 0
End If
Next
End Sub
Assuming Column F as the Column and it has number. Try the below code.
Sub sumAndcount()
Dim recCount As Long
Dim recSum As Long
Range("A65000").Value = "=COUNT(F:F)"
recCount = Range("A65000").Value
Range("A65000").Value = "=SUM(F:F)"
recCount = Range("A65000").Value
End Sub
How to check if a specific Column has Integer on each cell, and if it contains a string, Insert a blank cell to row in question.
Untested:
Dim row As Long
Dim col As Long
col = 4 ' Whatever column you want to check
For row = 1 To 100 ' How many rows you want to check
If Not IsNumeric(Cells(row, col).Value) Then
' Do whatever you want to do in this case
End If
Next row
If you clarify what you mean by "Insert a blank cell to row in question", I will try to update my solution.
You can check even check with a forumla that the column contains no none-numbers only
=COUNTBLANK(AAA:AAA)-COUNTBLANK(B:B)=COUNT(B:B)
where I assume that column AAA:AAA is empty.
A mix of the other answers for bigger data.
It first checks if the colomn has none Numbers only and if not, checks where.
Dim row As Long
Dim LastRow As Long
LastRow = Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row 'if you want the colomn B
If Excel.WorksheetFunction.CountBlank(Range("AAA:AAA")) - Excel.WorksheetFunction.CountBlank(Range("B:B")) = Excel.WorksheetFunction.Count(Range("B:B")) Then
For row = 1 To LastRow
If Not IsNumeric(Range("B" & row).Value) Then
' Do whatever you want to do in this case
End If
Next row
End if
Function IsInt(i As Variant) As Boolean
'checks if value i is an integer. returns True if it is and False if it isn't
IsInt = False
If IsNumeric(i) Then
If i = Int(i) Then
IsInt = True
End If
End If
End Function
Function IsString(s As Variant) As Boolean
'checks if variable s is a string, returs True if it is and False if not
IsString = True
If s = "" Then
IsString = False
Else
If IsNumeric(s) Then
IsString = False
End If
End If
End Function
Sub CheckInts(c As Integer)
'c = column number to check
'goes through all cells in column c and if integer ignores, if string sets to ""
Dim r, lastrow As Integer
lastrow = Sheet1.UsedRange.rows.Count 'find last row that contains data
For r = 1 To lastrow
If Not IsInt(Cells(r, c).Value) Then
If IsString(Cells(r, c).Value) Then
Cells(r, c).Value = ""
End If
End If
Next r
End Sub
then just call CheckInts passing in the column number you want to change
e.g. CheckInts(2) will change column 2
