Below is the code that I have so far I am able to click the button and every time the button is clicked the cell selection is moved down the row by 1.
What I need is to start the selection on F3 and select down until about F35 but when I range it doesn't select the cells one by one.
Here is my code:
Dim rng As Range
Dim row As Range
Dim cell As Range
Set rng = Range("F2")
rng.Select
For Each row In rng.Rows
For Each cell In row.Cells
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Next cell
Range("G66") = ActiveCell
Next row
if you have a Form button called Button1 then attach it a sub called Button1_Click() (or whatever, but be consistent with the name of the attached Sub) and place the following code in any module:
Option Explicit
Dim notFirst As Boolean
Dim rng As Range
Sub Button1_Click()
If notFirst Then
If rng.row = 35 Then
MsgBox "Sorry: you've already reached last valid cell in column F"
Exit Sub
Else
Set rng = rng.Offset(1)
End If
Else
Set rng = Range("F3")
notFirst = True
End If
Range("G66").Value = rng.Value
End Sub
if you have a ActiveX button called Button1 then write the same code as above in its sheet code pane

I am trying to write some VBA in excel that will clear all cells starting from the next empty cell in Column A (data starts from A2). For example, if A5 is blank then I want A5:P300 to all be cleared (as in all Formula and Data gone). And so on... so if A20 is blank then it deletes everything from A20:P300..
How would I go about writing this? I also need it to refer to the active workbook but a specific worksheet called ("Develop").
Thanks for any help provided.
Sub Clear()
Dim x As Worksheet
Dim rng, cell As Range
Set x = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("R&DCosts(2)")
Set rng = x.Range("A2:A340").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp)
For Each cell In rng
If cell.Value = "" Then
x.Range(cell.Address & ":P350").ClearContents
End
End If
Next cell
End Sub
Try this code, please:
Sub clearRange_Bis()
Dim sh As Worksheet, firstEmpt As Long
Set sh = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("R&DCosts(2)")
firstEmpt = sh.Range("A1").End(xlDown).Row + 1
If firstEmpt > 1000000 Then
sh.Range("A2:P300").Clear
Else
sh.Range("A" & firstEmpt & ":P300").Clear
End If
End Sub
A more simple solution
Option Explicit
Sub Clear()
Dim x As Worksheet
Dim rng, cell As Range
Set x = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("RDCosts(2)") ' you cannot use "&"
Set rng = x.Range("A2:A340", Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp))
For Each cell In rng
If cell.Value = "" Then
x.Range(cell.Address & ":P350").ClearContents
End
End If
Next cell
End Sub
I have created a simple Excel Macro which is triggered when a user clicks on a cell in a worksheet (worksheet1). Basically the macro takes the value of the cell which was clicked on and selects a target cell in a separate worksheet (worksheet2) that has the same value.
The problem is that about 20% of the time after being directed to worksheet2, the target cell is highlighted but is just out of view, i have to scroll down a couple of rows to see it. I want to be able to ensure that the target cell is always in view after the user is directed to it, but I am not sure how this can be achieved.
This is in Excel 2016.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If ActiveCell.Column = 1 Then
If Target.Cells.Count = 1 Then
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim c As Range
Dim ans As String
Dim Lastrow As Long
ans = ActiveCell.Value
Lastrow = Sheets("worksheet2").Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For Each c In Sheets("worksheet2").Range("A2:A" & Lastrow)
If c.Value = ans Then Application.Goto Reference:=Sheets("worksheet2").Range(c.Address): Exit Sub
Next
End If
End If
Exit Sub
End Sub
You can use find to find the selected item in sheet2 then just select the sheet and the found cell
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim s As Range
If Target.Column = 1 Then
Set s = Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("B:B").Find(what:=Target, lookat:=xlWhole)
If Not s Is Nothing Then
Worksheets("Sheet2").Activate
s.Select
Else: MsgBox Target.Value & " is not found in sheet 2"
End If
End If
End Sub
I am new in VBA and I want to write a program that when I manually select 1 or more items from a list the code searches with the name of the item and picks it from another sheet, copies the whole row and pastes it in a 3rd sheet. Is that possible? Preferably with a click of a button the selection is made. Thanks a lot!
Here is an example.
Sub FindAndMove()
Dim Finder As Range
Dim TheItem As Variant
With Sheets("Sheet1")
If Selection.CountLarge = 1 And Not Intersect(Selection, .Range("A2:A11")) Is Nothing Then
TheItem = Selection.Value
Else
MsgBox ("Please select an item from the list")
Exit Sub
End If
End With
With Sheets("Sheet2")
Set Finder = .Range("A:A").Find(TheItem, LookAt:=xlWhole)
If Finder Is Nothing Then
MsgBox ("Item not found!")
Exit Sub
End If
With Sheets("Sheet3")
Finder.EntireRow.Copy .Range("A" & .UsedRange.Rows.CountLarge + 1)
.Select 'Optional - show sheet 3
End With
End With
End Sub
Walking through the code:
When they click the button, if they only select 1 cell that's in our list.
Get the value of the item they selected
On Sheet2 - go find that value in column A
If you find it, copy the entire row to the end of Sheet3
You can modify the code by changing the sheet names in Sheet("Sheet1") to whatever you want.
You can also change the list range by changing .Range("A2:A11")
You can change the range to search by changing .Range("A:A")
Sheet 1:
Sheet 2:
Sheet 3: (after we select item 3 and click Find and Move)
Error Handling:
Edit:
Code to find multiple occurrences using FindNext
Sub FindAndMove()
Dim Finder As Range
Dim FirstAddress As Variant
Dim TheItem As Variant
With Sheets("Sheet1")
If Selection.CountLarge = 1 And Not Intersect(Selection, .Range("A2:A11")) Is Nothing Then
TheItem = Selection.Value
Else
MsgBox ("Please select an item from the list")
Exit Sub
End If
End With
With Sheets("Sheet2")
Set Finder = .Range("A:A").Find(TheItem, LookAt:=xlWhole)
If Finder Is Nothing Then
MsgBox ("Item not found!")
Exit Sub
End If
FirstAddress = Finder.Address
Do
With Sheets("Sheet3")
Finder.EntireRow.Copy .Range("A" & .UsedRange.Rows.CountLarge + 1)
End With
Set Finder = .Range("A:A").FindNext(Finder)
Loop While Not Finder Is Nothing And Finder.Address <> FirstAddress
End With
Sheets("Sheet3").Select 'Optional - Select Sheet3 After.
End Sub
The macro offers the options to format selected text, which it does perfectly if some some cells are selected first.
However, the error handling is not working and I don't know why: if nothing is selected when I execute the macro, it formats the whole worksheet instead of showing an error message that requests a selection to be made. Any ideas why this isn't working?
Code from my UserForm ("UserForm1"):
Private Sub OKButton_Click()
Dim WorkRange As Range
Dim cell As Range
On Error Resume Next
Set WorkRange = Selection.SpecialCells _
(xlCellTypeConstants, xlCellTypeConstants)
If OptionUpper Then
For Each cell In WorkRange
cell.Value = UCase(cell.Value)
Next cell
End If
' code for the other options...
Unload UserForm1
End Sub
Code for calling the macro("Module1"):
Sub ChangeCase()
If TypeName(Selection) = "Range" Then
UserForm1.Show
Else
MsgBox "Select an area first.", vbCritical
End If
End Sub
I'm using MS Excel 2010. (Hope I didn't forget any relevant information.)
You could alter the userform code to something like:
Private Sub OKButton_Click()
Dim WorkRange As Range
Dim cell As Range
' If Selection.Cells.Count > 1 then (I corrected this to the line below, then it worked!
If Selection.Cells.Count = 1 then
If Msgbox("Only one cell selected - do you want to format the whole sheet?", vbyesno) = vbNo then Exit Sub
End If
On Error Resume Next
Set WorkRange = Selection.SpecialCells _
(xlCellTypeConstants, xlCellTypeConstants)
If OptionUpper Then
For Each cell In WorkRange
cell.Value = UCase(cell.Value)
Next cell
End If
' code for the other options...
Unload Me
End Sub
A Much Better Solution to If nothing is selected.
Public Sub IfNoSelection()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
'Activate your Sheet
Sheets("Name Of Sheet Here").Select
'Select your range without selecting the header (column D)
Range(Cells(2, 4), Cells(Rows.Count, 4)).Select
'This Line Checks if what is selected is selected.
If WorksheetFunction.CountA(Selection) = 0 Then
Else
'enter code here
End If
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
I'm creating an excel file with column A to H are mandatory cells.
This excel file will be passing around for input.
So, I would like to highlight the empty cells as a reminder.
I have written the following code...
Sub Highlight_Cell()
Dim Rng As Range
For Each Rng In Range("A2:H20")
If Rng.Value = "" Then
Rng.Interior.ColorIndex = 6 ‘yellow
Else
Rng.Interior.ColorIndex = 0 'blank
End If
Next Rng
MsgBox "Please fill in all mandatory fields highlighted in yellow."
End Sub
However, I would like to set the range from A2 to the last row that contains data within column A to H.
Also, display the message box only when empty cell exist.
Could you please advise how should I amend?
Million Thanks!!!
This is a VBA solution that prevents the user from saving until the desired range is filled (acknowledging Gserg's comment that that the last row is one that has at least one cell entered)
In the second portion you can either add your sheet index directly, Set ws = Sheets(x) for position x, or Set ws = Sheets("YourSheet") for a specific sheet name
The code will only highlight truly blank cells within A to H of this sheet till the last entered cell (using SpecialCells as a shortcut). Any such cells will be selected by the code on exit
Put this code in the ThisWorkbook module (so it fires whenever the user tries to close the file)
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
bCheck = False
Call CheckCode
If bCheck Then Cancel = True
End Sub
Put this code in a standard module
Public bCheck As Boolean
Sub CheckCode()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim rng1 As Range
Dim rng2 As Range
bCheck = False
'works on sheet 1, change as needed
Set ws = Sheets(1)
Set rng1 = ws.Columns("A:H").Find("*", ws.[a1], xlValues, xlWhole, xlByRows)
If rng1 Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "No Cells in columns A:H on " & ws.Name & " file will now close", vbCritical
Exit Sub
End If
Set rng2 = ws.Range(ws.[a1], ws.Cells(rng1.Row, "H"))
On Error Resume Next
Set rng2 = rng2.SpecialCells(xlBlanks)
On Error GoTo 0
If rng2 Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
bCheck = True
rng2.Interior.Color = vbYellow
MsgBox "Please fill in all mandatory fields on " & ws.Name & " highlighted in yellow", vbCritical, "Save Cancelled!"
Application.Goto rng2.Cells(1)
End Sub
