I have some problems with excel and VBA, in that don't know have much knowledge. I copied text from pdf and it's awful.
I have cells which contain some text.
The problem is that the text from one paragraph is broken down over several cells. At the beginning of each paragraph is a word in bold (e.g. CLR.) which describes the rest of the text. As such, it defines where each paragraph should start. How I can merge these cells into one?
I see
I want
Sub MergeText()
Dim strMerged$, r&, j&, i&
r = 1
Do While True
If Cells(r, 1).Characters(1, 1).Font.Bold Then
strMerged = "": strMerged = Cells(r, 1)
r = r + 1
While (Not Cells(r, 1).Characters(1).Font.Bold) And Len(Cells(r, 1)) > 0
strMerged = strMerged & Cells(r, 1)
r = r + 1
Wend
i = i + 1: Cells(i, 2) = strMerged
Cells(i, 2).Characters(1, InStr(1, strMerged, ".", vbTextCompare)).Font.Bold = True
Else
Exit Do
End If
Loop
End Sub
Modify (if needed) and try:

I have a really crude code for sorting the columns out and merging them together as seen by my code. The first 3 blocks are to sort them first by column A, then column B, and then column C.
I want it so that users can see the breakdown in columns A, B and C. Column A being the material, B being the material variant, and C the fabrication method and not have to look at each entry row by row.
Is there a more efficient way of sorting the columns without having to go through the 3 blocks of code? And merging them at the end for me seems to not work as well and the rows end up getting mixed and not properly sorted.

I am surprised there's no answer for this. I have read Setting Dynamic Ranges in VBA and Selecting Dynamic Range and Autofill Dynamic Range Last Row and Last Column and MSDN
I have multiple, distinct ranges on a sheet with varying sizes. I am trying to subtotal column L. I can do it using a hardcoded sum (via subtotal variable) but I want to insert a formula into the cell instead. This requires knowing the starting and end rows for each range. My code almost works. It fails when the range only consists of one row. Even so, I feel there's gotta be a smarter way to do this.
How does one determine the start and end row of a range on a sheet filled with multiple ranges?
For i = 2 To j
If .Cells(i + 1, "L") = "" And .Cells(i + 2, "L") = "" Then
b = .Cells(i - 1, "J").End(xlUp).Row
End If
subtotal = subtotal + .Cells(i, "L").Value2
If .Cells(i, 1) = "" And .Cells(i - 1, "B") <> "" Then
If .Cells(i - 1, "K") = 0 Then
.Cells(i, "K").Value2 = "Check Payment"
'Set sumRng = .Range(.Cells(b, "L"), .Cells(i - 1, "L"))
.Cells(i, "L").Formula = "=sum(L" & b & ":L" & i - 1 & ")"
.Cells(i - 1, "L").Borders(xlEdgeBottom).LineStyle = xlContinuous
total = total + subtotal
subtotal = 0
ElseIf .Cells(i - 1, "K") = "Checking" Then
.Cells(i, "K").Value2 = "EFT Payment"
'Set sumRng = .Range(.Cells(b, "L"), .Cells(i - 1, "L"))
.Cells(i, "L").Formula = "=sum(L" & b & ":L" & i - 1 & ")"
.Cells(i - 1, "L").Borders(xlEdgeBottom).LineStyle = xlContinuous
total = total + subtotal
subtotal = 0
End If
End If
Next
You can loop through the column like this:
For i = 2 To mySheet.Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1
If Range("B" & i).Value <> vbNullString Then
If Range("B" & i - 1).Value = vbNullString Then
j = i
End If
Else
If Range("B" & i - 1).Value <> vbNullString And Range("B" & i - 1).Formula <> "=SUM(B" & j & ":B" & i - 2 & ")" Then
Range("B" & i).Formula = "=SUM(B" & j & ":B" & i - 1 & ")"
End If
End If
Next i
This uses Match to skip chunks and as such the number or loops are less
With ActiveSheet
Dim b As Long
b = 2
Do Until b = .Rows.Count
Dim x As Variant
x = .Evaluate("Match(True, Index(" & .Range(.Cells(b, "l"), .Cells(.Rows.Count, "l")).Address & " <> """",),0)")
If Not IsError(x) Then
b = b + x - 1
Else
Exit Sub
End If
x = .Evaluate("Match(True, Index(" & .Range(.Cells(b, "l"), .Cells(.Rows.Count, "l")).Address & " = """",),0)")
Dim i As Long
i = b + x - 1
.Cells(i, "l").Formula = "=sum(L" & b & ":L" & i - 1 & ")"
b = i + 2

I am setting up a new pricing schedule which reads selected information from a 'Register' tab, based on selected criteria, and copying this into a new tab. This data is formatted so it looks aesthetically pleasing.
I am finding formatting the code is slowing down the run speed significantly. If possible I would like to speed this up as I will be iterating this multiple times.
I hae sped the program up a reasonable amount. Initially it took 30s, whereas now it is about 10s.
I have followed information from this website as best as I can:
https://www.soa.org/News-and-Publications/Newsletters/Compact/2012/january/com-2012-iss42-roper.aspx
I feel there is still scope to improve more, though I am unsure how, and am reaching out to see if there is, or are, better ways to improve the code so it runs quicker.

The main culprit for your slower performance is the insert operation. try to work the logic to not having insert. If not possible, try to insert rows outside the loop in a single operation rather than in the loop
Range("Pricing_Range").Rows(i + 1).Insert Shift:=xlShiftDown
Range("Pricing_Range").Rows(i + 1).Insert Shift:=xlShiftDown
Your handling of the collect array is inefficient. Consider reading the entire Client Register into an array with MyArray = Range.Value. Then prepare the output array in memory and write it to the worksheet after all looping is done, in one go, with TargetRange.Value = collect.
Avoid inserting rows. What's wrong with the existing? If you are preparing all data in an array to be pasted to the worksheet, empty array elements will produce empty worksheet cells. In this way all inserting can be avoided and all you need to do is to format.
There is time cost for every access to the worksheet, whether to read or write. Even for formatting, try to create ranges that are treated in the same manner. Avoid accessing the worksheet in loops.
Example of With and block assignment from an array:
'copy from database to the pricing schedule as a
' non formatted list of all the info - this runs quickly,
' but I am open to changing it
With Range("Client_Register")
For Each rw In .Rows
If .Cells(rw.Row, 2) = selectedClient Then
collect(i, 1) = .Range("E" & rw.Row)
collect(i, 2) = .Range("D" & rw.Row)
collect(i, 3) = .Range("F" & rw.Row)
collect(i, 4) = .Range("J" & rw.Row)
collect(i, 5) = .Range("K" & rw.Row)
collect(i, 6) = .Range("L" & rw.Row)
collect(i, 7) = .Range("M" & rw.Row)
collect(i, 8) = .Range("P" & rw.Row)
collect(i, 9) = .Range("I" & rw.Row)
collect(i, 10) = .Range("H" & rw.Row)
'you could even skip the row-by-row population of values
' and assign as a block after exiting the loop
ws2.Range("B" & i + 6).Resize(1, 10).Value = _
Array(collect(i, 1), collect(i, 2), collect(i, 3), _
collect(i, 4), collect(i, 5), collect(i, 6), _
collect(i, 7), collect(i, 8), collect(i, 9), _
collect(i, 10))
i = i + 1
End If
Next
End With
Note this will break if your Client_Register refers to a range which doesn't start on Row1, because of the relative range references.
Eg:
Range("A1:A10").Range("A1") 'refers to A1
Range("A2:A10").Range("A1") 'refers to A2
I currently have a sheet with two columns - 'From' and 'To'. I am trying to create a spreadsheet where each line is an individual value that falls within the ranges currently in each row.
An example (sorry I cannot embed images yet)--
What I have:
What I want:
Try this VBA code,
Sub splitToCodes()
Dim i As Long, j As Long, k As Long
j = 2
For i = 2 To Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
If IsNumeric(Cells(i, 1)) Then
For k = Cells(i, 1) To Cells(i, 2)
Cells(j, 4) = k
j = j + 1
Next k
Else
For k = Right(Cells(i, 1), Len(Cells(i, 1)) - 1) To Right(Cells(i, 2), Len(Cells(i, 2)) - 1)
Cells(j, 4) = k
Cells(j, 4) = Left(Cells(i, 1), Len(Cells(i, 1)) - Len(Cells(j, 4))) & k
j = j + 1
Next k
End If
Next i
End Sub
This code loops through the columns A and B and prints the output in column D. Modify as per your needs.
Note:- This code will work only for similar data as in the image as you have not mentioned any other format.
Copy & paste FROM and TO columns under each other and apply remove duplicates function at data block of menu bar.
Here is my super tedious solution:

Sub Test()
Dim i As Integer, j As Integer, k As Long, sht As Worksheet, lastrow As Long, missingzeroes As Integer, zeroesholder As String, myzeroes As String
Set sht = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
lastrow = sht.Cells(sht.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 2 To lastrow
If IsNumeric(Range("B" & i).Value) = True And IsNumeric(Range("A" & i).Value) = True Then
j = Range("B" & i).Value - Range("A" & i).Value
lastrow = sht.Cells(sht.Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Row
For k = 0 To j
Range("D" & lastrow + 1 + k).Value = Range("A" & i).Value + k
Next k
Else
j = Right(Range("B" & i).Value, 4) - Right(Range("A" & i).Value, 4)
lastrow = sht.Cells(sht.Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Row
For k = 0 To j
Range("D" & lastrow + 1 + k).Value = Left(Range("B" & i).Value, 1) & Right(Range("A" & i).Value, 4) + k
If Len(Range("B" & i).Value) <> Len(Range("D" & lastrow + 1 + k).Value) Then
missingzeroes = Len(Range("B" & i).Value) - Len(Range("D" & lastrow + 1 + k).Value)
zeroesholder = "000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000"
myzeroes = Left(zeroesholder, missingzeroes)
Range("D" & lastrow + 1 + k).Value = Left(Range("A" & i).Value, 1) & myzeroes & Right(Range("A" & i).Value, Len(Range("D" & lastrow + 1 + k).Value) - 1) + k
End If
Next k
End If
Next i
End Sub
I am trying to automate my SKU numbers. I have 3 columns. The first column has 28, the second has 6 and finally the third has 58.
I want the SKU to have a Trend like so 0{(###)col1}{(##)col2}{(##)col3}0
My Code looks like this
Sub SKU()
Dim x As Long
x = 1
i = 1
j = 1
k = 1
Do While Cells(i, 1) <> ""
Do While Cells(j, 2) <> ""
Do While Cells(k, 3) <> ""
Cells(x, 4).Value = Format(0, "0") & Format(i, "000") & _
Format(j, "00") & Format(k, "00") & Format(0, "0")
k = k + 1
x = x + 1
Loop
j = j + 1
Loop
i = i + 1
Loop
End Sub
No need to use the Do Loop. Find the last row and then use a For loop.
Is this what you are trying?
Sub Sample()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim lRow As Long, i As Long
'~~> Change this to the relevant sheet
Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet2")
With ws
'~~> Find last row
lRow = .Range("A" & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To lRow
If .Cells(i, 1) <> "" And .Cells(i, 2) <> "" And .Cells(i, 3) <> "" Then
'0{(###)col1}{(##)col2}{(##)col3}0
.Cells(i, 4).Value = "'0" & _
Format(.Cells(i, 1), "000") & _
Format(.Cells(i, 2), "00") & _
Format(.Cells(i, 3), "00") & _
"0"
End If
Next i
End With
End Sub
Output for 28,6,58 is 002806580
As i mentioned in the comment to the question, remove first and second do-while loop then replace:
Cells(x, 4).Value = Format(0, "0") & Format(i, "000") & _
Format(j, "00") & Format(k, "00") & Format(0, "0")
with:
Cells(k, 4) = "'" & Format(Cells(k, 1), "000") & _
Format(Cells(k, 2), "00") & Format(Cells(k, 3), "00")
Result: 0280658
In case you want to add leading and ending zeros:
Cells(k, 4) = "'0" & Format(Cells(k, 1), "000") & _
Format(Cells(k, 2), "00") & Format(Cells(k, 3), "00") & "0"
Result: 002806580
