Selecting a dynamic range
 

Hi

My problem is similar (but not identical to) another recently posted problem



I'm trying to set up a macro that will allow me to select a range of data
cells dynamically.
The length of the range will vary as shown below:



Val1 10

Val2 20

Val3 50

0 0

0 0

0 0



If I use Rang(A1:B6), all of the above data will be selected, but I'm not
interested in the 0 values. The next time I may have the following results:



Val1 10

Val2 20

Val3 50

Val4 10

0 0

0 0



i.e additional data



I can use the countif function to give me the number of rows which are not
zero, but I cannot combine the above functions (range and countif).

Any ideas?



Thanks,



Sara

Maybe

Dim i As Long

For i = Cells(Rows.Count,"A").End(xlUp).Row
If Cells(i,"A").Value < 0 Then
Exit For
End If
Next i
Range("A1:A" & i).Select

set rng = Range(A1").Resize(application.Countif(Range("B:B") ,"<0"),2)
rng.Select

You need to create an indirect reference from your countif function. It will
look similar to: Indirect(concatenate("A1:B",COUNTIF(B1:B2000,"0") ))

Tom,

I've just got to jump in and say that's a nice bit of code!
