Microsoft Excel Tutorial: Making a Macro Work for Every Value in Column A | Excel VBA.
Welcome back to the MrExcel netcast! In today's episode, we will be discussing a question sent in by JK about how to make a macro work for every single value in column A. JK has a macro that currently runs on the current cell, but he wants to know how to make it work for all the cells in column A. So, let's dive in and find out how to do that!
First, I want to mention that this episode is sponsored by MrExcel.com. Now, JK didn't tell me what his macro does, but I wrote a little macro to demonstrate the issue. As you can see, it puts the letter E in the seventh column when I press Ctrl A. Now, this may seem like a silly example, but the point is, how do we make this macro work for every value in column A?
To solve this problem, we will be using a line of code that I like to call my "favorite line of code". It's the one I use over and over again in my macros. It goes like this: FinalRow=Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(x1Up).Row. What this does is it goes to the last row in the spreadsheet and figures out what row we're at. In this case, it tells us that we have 15 rows of data.
Next, we will use a loop to go through each row and apply the macro. So, we will use the code "for i = 2 to FinalRow" and then indent the macro we want to apply. Finally, we will use the code "Next i" to end the loop. This way, the macro will be applied to every single value in column A. No more pressing Ctrl A and down arrow repeatedly!
Now, JK mentioned that we may need to use Count or Count A to achieve this, but I found this to be a handy and efficient way to do it. We already have variables, so why not use them? By figuring out the last row and using a loop, we can quickly apply the macro to all the cells in column A. So, thank you JK for sending in this question and I hope this solution helps you and others facing a similar issue.
