Sum specific cells with nested loops - excel

The task in general is to sum specific values from an Excel dataset and paste it into another Worksheet.
My idea is to nest three loops.
The first Loop Counts the Project specific number
The second Loop Counts the columns (Begins with column 'H')
The third Loop Counts the rows (Begins with row '9')
Inside this function the program sums the values related to the project number.
After it is done, the accumulated value should be pasted into
another worksheet. The cell it has to be pasted in, is the specific cell for
the project number and column.
The third loop ends when it reached the last filled row.
The second loop ends when it reached the last filled column.
The first loop ends when it reached the last predefined project number
Paste the accumulated values into another Sheet

Sum and Copy Loop
Adjust the values in the constants section to fit your needs.

' Calculate First Columns.
intFirst1 = ws1.Cells(1, cValFirst1).Column
intFirst2 = ws2.Cells(1, cValFirst2).Column
' Loop through cells (rows) of Target Criteria Column.

' Loop through Value Columns.
For j = 1 To cValCols
lngTemp = 0 ' Reset Value Accumulator.
' Loop through cells (rows) of Source Criteria Column.
For i = cFirstRow1 To lngLast1
' Check if criterias are equal.
If ws1.Cells(i, cCol1) = ws2.Cells(k, cCol2) Then

How to return a hyperlink to another worksheet based on a dropdown selection

My data sheet ("srData") is a pivot table that is filled using a userform. All data have a unique ID in column A of the data sheet. In the userform checkboxes are selected, which will change the cells, in columns K:AB, interior color to white(2), else interior color is grey(15)
In my main worksheet ("Formulier"), based on the value of a drop down box (C6)where the unique ID is selected (i.e. SR-1, SR-2,SR-3 etc...), the headers from sheet("srData") are returned in column A of sheet("Formulier") starting from row 20 if the interior.colorindex=2. The values in the cells are returned in column D starting from row 20.
Now in Column Y and Z of ("srData") I have placed a hyperlink which links to a PDF.(see SR-4 first image) In column Y and Z there will allways be hyperlinks in the cells with interior.colorindex=2.
When I now select the unique ID from the dropdown on sheet("Formulier") I would like it to return an active hyperlink and not just tekst as it does now. Is this possible?
This is the code I have for returning the header and the values. The code was created by VBasic2008 so credit goes to him.

In general, the way you can turn a string to a Hyperlink is the following:
Sub text2Hyperlink()
Dim sht As Worksheet
Dim URL As String
Dim filePath As String
Set sht = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Worksheet Name") ' whichever worksheet you're working with
filePath = ".....\Something.pdf"
URL = "https://www.google.com/"
sht.Hyperlinks.Add sht.Range("A1"), filePath
sht.Hyperlinks.Add sht.Range("A2"), URL
End Sub
This takes some text stored in a string, and assigns it as a hyperlink in a cell. It works both for websites and files
In this case you end up with a link to a file in cell A1 and with a link to a webpage in cell A2.
You can modify this to suit your needs.

Determine if cell contains a value

I have a command button named "update" to activate the macro.
The macro should check if in the range G:25 to G:33 the cell is empty.
If empty nothing should happen.
If you write a number into the Box it should copy that number and then put it into a cell on the second worksheet.
So Sheet1.(G:25) should be copied into sheet2.(G14) and then iterate till G:25
Nothing is happening.
Sheet1 = "Übersicht"
Sheet2 = "Semester01"
Dim cell As Range, c As Integer, score As Integer
Dim rng As Range
Set rng = Range("G25:G33")
c = 14
For Each cell In rng
score = Cells.Value
If score < 0 Then
zelle.Copy
Sheet2.Cells(7, c).Select
Worksheet("Semester01").Paste
c = c + 1
End If
Next cell
End Sub
I don't see the point for all the extra variables and missing/confusing parent references. I don't see where zelle comes from.
Option Explicit
sub go()
Dim cell As Range, c As Integer
c = 14
For Each cell In sheet1.Range("G25:G33")
If val(cell.Value) < 0 Then
cell.Copy destination:=Sheet2.Cells(7, c)
c = c + 1
End If
Next cell
End Sub
If you use Option Explicit you can avoid misspelling variable.
Copy Cells If Criteria...
Option Explicit
Sub ZelleCopy()
Const cShS As String = "Übersicht" ' Source Worksheet Name
Const cShT As String = "Semester01" ' Target Worksheet Name

Set wsS = .Worksheets(cShS)
Set wsT = .Worksheets(cShT)

' Write Target First Row Number to Target Row Counter.
c = cTgtFR
' Loop through each cell (row) in Source Column Range.
For Each cell In wsS.Range(cRng)
' Write value of Current Cell to Criteria Value.
Score = cell.Value
' Check if Criteria Value is less than 0.

' Write Criteria Value to current cell in Target Column.

Copying data from cells and adding it up Excel visual basic

I would like to make a macro that copies numbers that fall under the same category and add them up separately for each category. For instance Cells in column c contain the name of the product than 4 columns to the right is the number of sold products. I would like to add up all the entries in the number of sold products that fall under the same product together for each product and write it out to a predefined cell. So far I have come up with this
Sub find()
Dim XXX As Range
Dim myTotal As Long
Dim name As String
Dim name2 As String
name = Range("C2")
For Each XXX In Range("C2:C99999")
name2 = ActiveCell.Value
If name <> name2 Then
Dim aa As Integer
aa = 1
Cells(aa, 8).Value = name
Cells(aa, 9).Value = myTotal
name = name2
myTotal = 0
aa = aa + 1
End If
If InStr(XXX.Value, name2) > 0 Then
myTotal = myTotal + XXX.Offset(0, 4).Value
End If
Next XXX
End Sub
Any tips or guidelines would be appreciated and I hope the explanation makes sense.
Here's a faster basic approach:
Sub find()
Dim dict As Object, names, nums, r As Long
Dim sht As Worksheet
Set sht = ActiveSheet
Set dict = CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
names = Range("C2:C99999").Value
nums = Range("C2:C99999").Offset(0, 4).Value
For r = 1 To UBound(names)
dict(names(r, 1)) = dict(names(r, 1)) + nums(r, 1)
Next r
WriteCounts dict, sht.Range("J1")
End Sub
Sub WriteCounts(dict As Object, rngStart As Range)
Dim k
For Each k In dict.keys
rngStart.Value = k
rngStart.Offset(0, 1).Value = dict(k)
Set rngStart = rngStart.Offset(1, 0)
Next k
End Sub
The Dictionary 'SumIf' Feature
VBA Dictionary Solution
Credits to Tim Williams and
his
solution.
Why would OP want a VBA solution when there is a perfectly good Excel
solution? When there are tens of thousands of records and as many or
many times more formulas, the workbook tends to get slow. So by adding
the SUMIF formula we're adding another bunch of them slowing down
even more. And we don't know the unique values, which we could find
using another seriously slowing down formula.
So VBA will do this in a split second, or will it? I created a new
worksheet with 60000 records and with 1000 unique ones to try to
prove it.
SumIf Solution: The first idea was to adjust all the ranges, get the unique values using Advanced Filter and then use
Worksheetfunction.SumIf. SumIf took its time, 17s, and when I
added some formulas it went above 20s.
Array Loop Solution: This one was again using Advanced Filter but this time the idea was to put everything into arrays and loop
through them and adding the values to another array one by one. This
time the loop took its time. After some tweaking it went down to 13s
and stayed there even after adding formulas.
Advanced Filter did copy the unique values in less than 0.2s into
the appropriate range, but the rest was taking too long.
Dictionary Solution: Tim Williams' solution did initially do all this in 2.5s. How is that possible I thought, Advanced Filter is the god
of unique values. Well, it isn't, or at best it is only one of them. I saw
this line in a loop in the code: dict(names(r, 1)) = dict(names(r, 1)) + nums(r, 1). It seemed like it was doing the heavy lifting in a split second which forced me to investigate (Dictionary Object (Microsoft), Excel VBA Dictionary: A Complete Guide (Paul Kelly) and produce a
solution.

Could this be regarded as a simplified visual presentation of what you are trying to achieve?
You can use the following formula in cell I2:

How to get the first 3 words out of each cell of a range previously selected?

What I exactly need is to get the first 3 words out of each cell of the range selected, and then set it in the same place (each cell), so that I end up with the first 3 words in each cell. It doesn´t matter the number of words there were before. Basically, I need a code with a bucle to do that with each cell in the selection.
I´ve tried to use formula local, but it doesn´t work.
Sub EXTRAER_NOMBRES_Y_APELLIDO()
'Convierte los textos seleccionados a formato de nombre propio
'La primera letra en mayúscula y el resto en minúsculas
'Dim CELDA As String
'Dim B As Integer
For Each CELDA In Selection
'CELDA.Value = Left(Range("Y3"), 5)
'Range("Y3") = Left(Range("Y3"), 5)
'CELDA.Value = Left(CELDA, 3)
ActiveCell.FormulaLocal = "=LEFT(Planilla[#Estudiante];FIND(" ";Planilla[#Estudiante])-1)"
Next CELDA
End Sub
What I expect is to get the first 3 words in each cell of the column (range previously selected).
Split Names
Assumptions
There are two or three names per cell range (person):
First Name and Last Name or
First Name, Middle Name and Last Name.
You wanted the names from one column split into three columns.
The Code
Adjust the values in the constants section to fit your needs.
You can choose the same column letter or number if you want to
overwrite the initial data, but do this after testing the code.
Sub SplitNames()

Dim vntT As Variant ' Target Array
Dim LastR As Long ' Source/Target Last Row Number
Dim i As Long ' Source/Target Array Row Counter
' Calculate Source/Target Last Row Number.
LastR = Cells(Rows.Count, cSource).End(xlUp).Row
' Copy Source Range into Source Array.
vntS = Range(Cells(cFirstR, cSource), Cells(LastR, cSource))

This is a proposal, using basic Excel formulas:
Replace the first space with an underscore
Replace the first space with an underscore (as a result, both first spaces are replaced by underscore)
Determine the location of the first space (which gives the location of the third space in the original text)
Take the text, at the left of the nth character.
Hereby the formulas (the original text is in cell B2):
B3 : =SUBSTITUTE(B2;" ";"_";1)
B4 : =SUBSTITUTE(B3;" ";"_";1)
B5 : =FIND(" ";B4)
B6 : =LEFT(B2;B5-1)

Copy Sheet Rows to New Sheet Based on Split Cell Text

I have a problem I need help with involving Excel and VBA. I know next to nothing about Excel/VBA, and I need a coding solution to help me avoid performing the extremely tedious task of doing this manually (think hundreds of lines that need to be parsed where one row could become multiple rows in a new sheet). I've been searching the web for solutions, but I just keep getting confused by the answers (because I don't know anything about VB and using it to program a macro in Excel), so I figured I'd seek help for my specific problem.
Here is the rundown: I have a spreadsheet where I need to copy rows from a source sheet to a target sheet. The source sheet has 2 columns (A & B) that can be thought of as a key/value pair where col A contains the key and col B contains the value. The problem lies with the values in col B. The values can either be a single line of text or a numbered list of different texts
What I want to do is for each row in the source:
split the values in col B to get an array of each individual value (if the value is in the form of a numbered list)
create new rows in the target sheet by looping over the split array of values such that a new row will be created where:
new row col A = source row col A key and new row col B = current iteration index from the array of split values.
if no numbered list, just copy the source row into target sheet
Source
A B
key1 1. text1
2. text2
key2 1. text3
Target
A B
key1 text1
key1 text2
key2 text3
The numbered list in a cell will be multiple lines where each line of text is prepended by a decimal and a dot. This applies to single line cells as well.
(Update) Bear in mind that the values in either col A or B are not simple text values. These are full on sentences. So, I'm not sure a simple formula is going to work.
Split Multi Line
It is unclear which line separator occurs in the multi line cells. Choose one, vbLf worked for me.

lastR = .Cells(.Rows.Count, cFirstC).End(xlUp).Row
vntS = .Range(.Cells(cFirstR, cFirstC), .Cells(lastR, cLastC))
End With
' Count the number of rows in target array.
For i = 1 To UBound(vntS)
k = k + UBound(Split(vntS(i, cMulti), cSplit)) + 1
Next
' Write from Source to Target Array.
ReDim vntT(1 To k, 1 To UBound(vntS, 2))
k = 0
For i = 1 To UBound(vntS)
k = k + 1
vntSplit = Split(vntS(i, cMulti), cSplit)
For m = 0 To UBound(vntSplit)
If InStr(vntSplit(m), cDot) > 0 Then
vntT(k, cMulti) = Trim(Right(vntSplit(m), Len(vntSplit(m)) _
- InStr(vntSplit(m), cDot)))
Else
vntT(k, cMulti) = vntSplit(m)
End If
For j = 1 To UBound(vntS, 2)
If j <> cMulti Then
vntT(k, j) = vntS(i, j)
End If
Next
k = k + 1
Next
k = k - 1

You can do this with two formulas.
I'm assuming your data is in Sheet1.
For the first columns, use the following formula:
=IF(ISBLANK(Sheet1!A2),A1,Sheet1!A2)
For the second one use:
=IFERROR(RIGHT(Sheet1!B2,LEN(Sheet1!B2)-FIND(". ",Sheet1!B2)-1),Sheet1!B2)
And populate down.
edit:
The first formula will look at the corresponding cell in Sheet1, column A. If it is blank, it will take the value of the cell above where the formula is. If it isn't blank, it will take the value of the cell in Sheet1, column A that it just checked.
The second formula looks for the string ". " in the cells in Sheet1 column B and removes it and everything to the left of it from the text. If the string in question (". ") is not found (meaning there is no numbering in that given cell) it would return an error, so the whole thing is wrapped in an IFERROR statement which returns the value of the cell in Sheet1 column B if it is triggered.
