Balan!
Thanks so much for the amazin macro you wrote. The Macro works as you meant for it to, but unfortunatley it has some shortcomings. First: On a column of data above 250 rows, the macro locks up and freezes and can only be exited by END TASKING excel itself. Second: With this dataset, the macro failed to identify all of the pairs, but it did identify 1 set of pairs. The problem seems to be that only consecutive double pairs are identified: -10 -highlighted 10 -highlighted 10 11 - highlighted 11 -NOT highlighted -11 -highlighted -11 - NOT highlighted 12 12 -13 -13 9 -highlighted -9 -highlighted -program breaks at an empty cell as it should. 14 -ignored -14 -ignored Second Set of Data: 11 -highlighted -11 -highlighted 11 -highlighted -11 -highlighted -break As you can see, for some reason (and i do not understand the code perfectly) the macro finds and identifies the first set of pairs and any subsequent sets of pairs correctly but if the pairs are somehow broken up, like in the first example, the macro fails to indentify them. Did you mean for this to happen? For this particular application it is essential that ALL sets are found, even duplicate cancelling sets which are spaced apart (because in reality the matching pairs could be in row 10 and row 1000. If there are 2 +11 and 2 -11, they must both cancel and be highlighted, regardless of their position in relation to each other. Is there a way to change the code to achieve this objective? Balan, thank you so much for the time and effort you have already spent on this side-project. Hopefully it will challenge you as much as it has been challenging me!!! Thanks again, and let me know if you figure out a way to update the Macro! Thanks again! |
