I have a little problem, I occasionally bump into this kind of problem, but I haven't found a fast solution so far.
So, imagine we have an Excel worksheet and let's suppose that we have a couple of numbers in column 'A' with some empty cells in it. Altogether (just to make it simple) we have the first 10 cells in column 'A' to observe. For example:
3
(empty cell)
(empty cell)
6
(empty cell)
4
(empty cell)
23
(empty cell)
2
Now in the next step I would like to collect these numbers into another column (for example, column 'B') using VBA. Obviously I just want to collect those cells which contain a number and I want to ignore the empty cells. So I would like to get a column something like this:
3
6
4
23
2
I have already written the following code, but I'm stuck at this point.
Sub collect()
For i = 1 To 10
if cells(i,1)<>"" then...
Next i
End Sub
Is there an easy way to solve this problem?
Probably the quickest and easiest way is to use Excel's Advanced Filter - the only amendment you'll need to make is it add a field name and criteria. You can even list unique items only:
The VBA equivalent is
Sub test()
With Sheet1
.Range("B1:B8").AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterCopy, CriteriaRange:=.Range( _
"D1:D2"), CopyToRange:=.Range("F1"), Unique:=False
End With
End Sub
You should be able to use the method in the post int the comments, but you could also use SpecialCells
like Range("A:A").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants,xlNumbers).Copy
to get all of the filled cells.
Edit: needed constants not formulas.
If you wish to loop manually and don't mind specifying the maximum row limit;
Dim i As long, values As long
For i = 1 To 10
If cells(i, 1).Value <> "" Then
values = (values + 1)
' // Adjacent column target
cells(values, 2).value = cells(i, 1).value
End If
Next i
This will work for any number of rows that you select. It will always output in the next column at the start of your selection eg if data starts in B10 it will ooutput in C10
Sub RemoveBlanks()
Dim cl As Range, cnt As Long
cnt = 0
For Each cl In Selection
If Not cl = vbNullString Then
Cells(Selection.Cells(1, 1).Row, Selection.Cells(1, 1).Column).Offset(cnt, 1) = cl
cnt = cnt + 1
End If
Next cl
End Sub
