The following works fine:

Sub OneCellText()

Dim MyRange As Range
Dim MyCell As Range
Dim TempVar As String
Set MyRange = Selection

For Each MyCell In MyRange
If MyCell.Value < "" Then TempVar = TempVar + MyCell.Value + Chr(10)
Next MyCell
Range("E41").Formula = TempVar
End Sub

I would like to "compute" MyRange as follows:

Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Activate
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 3).Range("A1:E10").Select

Where things get tough is that the W/S that I review have
merged cells in many places. Merged cells seem to screw
up what .Range("A1:E10") selects. (Meaning, if I un-merge the merged cells
then .Range("A1:E10") works perfect. But with merged the selection of
..Range("A1:E10") picks up a different range)

Also, I am not sure how to formulate the ability of the macro to select the
row range to include all rows from
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 3) (above) XLDown to the first cell that is empty. In
addition, the Column range to move XLRight
to the first cell that is empty.

In short, how do I,
1)work around the merged cell vs. Offset()issue? (Note:
I can not change the merged cells (rights issue)

2)enhance the macro to compute the range to insert into
"MyRange" in the first macro?

Thanks, Dennis

It is almost always possible to write a macro that does what you want
without "selecting". It's more efficient and more professional to do so
and, in this case, it seems to have the additional benefit of working around
your problem. Here's an example:

Sub aa()
Dim MyRange As Range
Set MyRange = Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS")
Set MyRange = MyRange.Offset(1, 3).Range("A1:E10")
MsgBox MyRange.Address ''Test - delete
End Sub

You should be able to replace your Cells.Find/Select/Set MyRange = Selection
with code similar to this.

Thanks for your time and knowledge Jim.

Jim, what is the bst way to code the Range("A1:E10") would be relative, so
that the "row" range would be .Offset(1, 3) to the last contiguious cell with
data (XLDown) and the last "column" would be from .Offset(1, 3) to the last
contiguious cell with data (XLRight)?

Set MyRange = Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS")
Set MyRange = MyRange.End(xlDown).End(xlToRight).Offset(1, 3)

Jim we are getting real close!

I found the following loop via Google Search
Believe me I am trying to get this on my own also.


Sub Test4()
Dim LastDataColumn As Integer
Dim LastDataRow As Integer

LastDataColumn = 5 'Start point
' the above number should be the column number of
' Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Offset(1,3)
'
Do While Not IsEmpty(Rows(34).Cells(LastDataColumn))
' Rows(34) above should be the row number of
' Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Offset(1,3)
'
LastDataColumn = LastDataColumn + 1
Loop
LastDataColumn = LastDataColumn - 1

LastDataRow = 34 'Start point
' the above number should be the Row number of
' Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Offset(1,3)
'
Do While Not IsEmpty(Columns(5).Cells(LastDataRow))
' Rows(34) above should be the row number of
' Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Offset(1,3)
'
LastDataColumn = LastDataRow + 1
Loop
LastDataRow = LastDataRow - 1

End Sub

The above give me the LastDataColumn and the LastDataRow, or, the bottom
right of my range

Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Offset(1,3)
(If I have the syntax correct) should give me the upper left of my range.

How do I get these parameters to place into your "line"

Set MyRange = MyRange.End(xlDown).End(xlToRight).Offset(1, 3)
effectively MyRange.MyLastRow.MyLastColumn.Offset(1,3)
????

Jim, below is corrected for a description error.

************************************************** ****

Sub Test4()
Dim LastDataColumn As Integer
Dim LastDataRow As Integer

LastDataColumn = 5 'First Column with meaningful data
' the above number should be the column number of
' Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Offset(1,3)
'
Do While Not IsEmpty(Rows(34).Cells(LastDataColumn))
' Rows(34) above should be the row number of
' Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Offset(1,3)
'
LastDataColumn = LastDataColumn + 1
Loop
LastDataColumn = LastDataColumn - 1

LastDataRow = 34 'First Row with meaningful data
' the above number should be the Row number of
' Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Offset(1,3)
'
Do While Not IsEmpty(Columns(5).Cells(LastDataRow))
' Columns(5) above should be the row number of
' Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Offset(1,3)
'
LastDataColumn = LastDataRow + 1
Loop
LastDataRow = LastDataRow - 1
Range("A1").Select
End Sub

The above give me the LastDataColumn and the LastDataRow, or, the bottom
right of my range
Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Offset(1,3) should give me the
upper left of my range

How do I get these parameters to place into your "line"
Set MyRange = MyRange.End(xlDown).End(xlToRight).Offset(1, 3)
effectively MyRange.MyLastRow.MyLastColumn.Offset(1, 3)

And how do I get the initial start point integers for:
LastDataColumn (Initially the first data Column)
LastDataRow (Initially the first data Row)
out of "Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Offset(1,3)" ??

| | Thanks for your time and knowledge Jim.

| | Jim, what is the bst way to code the Range("A1:E10") would be
relative, so
| | that the "row" range would be .Offset(1, 3) to the last contiguious
cell
| with
| | data (XLDown) and the last "column" would be from .Offset(1, 3) to the
| last
| | contiguious cell with data (XLRight)?

working

| | Sub aa()
| | Dim MyRange As Range

| | Set MyRange = MyRange.Offset(1, 3).Range("A1:E10")

| | End Sub
| |
| | You should be able to replace your Cells.Find/Select/Set MyRange =
| Selection
| | with code similar to this.

| | | The following works fine:
| | |
| | | Sub OneCellText()
| | |
| | | Dim MyRange As Range
| | | Dim MyCell As Range
| | | Dim TempVar As String
| | | Set MyRange = Selection
| | |
| | | For Each MyCell In MyRange
| | | If MyCell.Value < "" Then TempVar = TempVar + MyCell.Value
+
| | Chr(10)
| | | Next MyCell
| | | Range("E41").Formula = TempVar
| | | End Sub
| | |
| | | I would like to "compute" MyRange as follows:
| | |
| | | Cells.Find(What:="IMPACTED ACCOUNTS").Activate
| | | ActiveCell.Offset(1, 3).Range("A1:E10").Select
| | |
| | | Where things get tough is that the W/S that I review have
| | | merged cells in many places. Merged cells seem to screw
| | | up what .Range("A1:E10") selects. (Meaning, if I un-merge the
merged
| | cells
| | | then .Range("A1:E10") works perfect. But with merged the
selection of
| | | .Range("A1:E10") picks up a different range)
| | |
| | | Also, I am not sure how to formulate the ability of the macro to
| select
| | the
| | | row range to include all rows from
| | | ActiveCell.Offset(1, 3) (above) XLDown to the first cell that is
| empty.
| | In
| | | addition, the Column range to move XLRight
| | | to the first cell that is empty.
| | |
| | | In short, how do I,
| | | 1)work around the merged cell vs. Offset()issue? (Note:
| | | I can not change the merged cells (rights issue)
| | |
| | | 2)enhance the macro to compute the range to insert into
| | | "MyRange" in the first macro?
| | |
| | | Thanks, Dennis
