i am a novice in VBA programming. I am looking to call a variable
within a string.

for example

a = "E13" (Cell reference)
Range("a: L30").select (Giving me error because variable a cannot
be called in within the Range)

I intend to select cells in the range E 13 to L 30. Any way to make
this work? Basically the starting cell of this range is dynamic and I
want to select that range.

Thanks,
Rachit

Hi Rachit,

range(a & ":l30").Select

thanks a lot... also another question..

if i know that a cell row is i and cell column is j (i and j are
variables), how do i get it in the regular cell address
(Alphabet-number) format..like i=5, j= 13, how do i get E 13
and assign it as

a = "e13"

thanks again!

Cells(i,j).Value = "a"

BTW if i is row and =5, and j is column and 13, then you are talking M5 not
E13.

i think i have not put it correctly. I do not want to assign "a" to
E13, rather i want to assign the string E13 which is obtained through
i=13, j=5 (i and j are variables) to a variable called 'a'.

Well in that case you want Niek's alternative solution, but you will still
get M5 with those variable values, not E13. If i is row it should be 13 not
5!

Hi Rachit,

cells(i,j).address(false,false)

Please start a new thread for a new question

How can I use Excel to achieve the following



1) I wish to split a concatenated string into a column of separate characters



€œThisIsText€�



should become..



€œt

h

i

s

i

s

t

e

x

t€�.



2) After this I wish to display a predefined row beside every character



t €œxyz€� €œx1w€� €œ234.1w€�

h €œsdf€� €œw21€� €œ12.5s€�

i €œwer€� €œwe2€� €œ123.e€�
