I’m trying to create excel template (the volume of data will be different from case to case) and it looks like this:
In every even row is «Customer» and I would like to put in every odd row «Ledger». Basically it should put «Ledger» to every odd row until there are data in column C. I have this code:
'========================================================================
' INSERTING LEDGERS for every odd row (below Customer)
'========================================================================
Sub Ledgers()
Dim rng As Range
Dim r As Range
Dim LastRow As Long
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
Set rng = .Range("C5:C" & LastRow)
For i = 1 To rng.Rows.Count
Set r = rng.Cells(i, -2)
If i Mod 2 = 1 Then
r.Value = "Ledger"
End If
Next i
End Sub
But it gives me an error msg Invalid or unqualified reference. Could you advise me, where I have the error, please?
Many thanks!

If a command starts with . like .Cells it expects to be within a with statement like …
With Worksheets("MySheetName")
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
Set rng = .Range("C5:C" & LastRow)
End With
So you need to specify the name of a worksheet where the cells are expected to be in.
Not that it would be a good idea to use Option Explicit at the top of your module to force that every variable is declared (you missed to declare i As Long).
Your code could be reduced to …
Option Explicit
Public Sub Ledgers()
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim i As Long
With Worksheets("MySheetName")
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
'make sure i starts with a odd number
'here we start at row 5 and loop to the last row
'step 2 makes it overstep the even numbers if you start with an odd i
'so there is no need to proof for even/odd
For i = 5 To LastRow Step 2
.Cells(i, "A") = "Ledger" 'In column A
'^ this references the worksheet of the with-statement because it starts with a `.`
Next i
End With
End Sub

Just loop with a step 2 to get every other row in your indexer variable.
Sub Ledgers()
Dim rng As Range
Dim LastRow As Long
LastRow = ActiveSheet.Cells(ActiveSheet.Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
Set rng = ActiveSheet.Range("C5:C" & LastRow)
For i = 1 To LastRow step 2
rng.Cells(i, 1) = "Ledger" 'In column A
Next i
End Sub

Hello,
When I run this code I get a compile error that says «Invalid or unqualified reference» when I looked into it the error seems to be saying that I am not using a With statement properly. But I am not using a with statement at all.
Has anyone got any suggestions?
Code:

I believe that after your End If and before your End Sub you need a Next.

Hello,
Thanks for the reply, looking at the macro now I see that you are correct for it to run properly I do need another next.
However, the bad news is I still have the same error appearing when I run this macro with the same line of data highlighted.
Any other suggestions?

Lastrow should be dimmed as Long
Also, shouldn’t this line be
Code:
lastrow = Range("AFCol & 65536").End(xlUp).Row
Code:
lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "AFCol").End(xlUp).Row
AND
I think AFCol should be AFColumn !
If you choose Option Explicit in your VBA preferences it would eliminate or identify a lot of syntax errors for you.

The most probable reason for this error is because the Find isn’t, well, finding anything.
Also why are toprow and AFColumn declared as Ranges? Isn’t just the integer value you want.
And why is ActiveSheet.UsedRange just kind of sitting in the middle, it must be feeling left ouy.
Try this, it compiles and runs but I don’t know if it does what you want — nothing to test it on.
Code:
Option Explicit
Sub deletingdata()
Dim I As Long
Dim J As Long
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim rngFnd As Range
Dim toprow As Long
Dim lastrow As Long
Dim AFcolumn As Long
For Each ws In Worksheets

If I <> 1 Then

Did you try Find just on it’s own?
Won’t work I’m afraid — Sub or Function not defined…
Though you are right about the Find not referring to anything.
That would have kicked off a compile error, I thought the OP was getting a run-time error.
That’s why I said the Find wasn’t finding anything.

Unless ‘Resumen’ is a codename, you must tell VBE what ‘Resumen’ is. In this case, I declare it as a worksheet object, and set the worksheet object to point to the ‘Resumen’ worksheet within the Workbook running the code. This should now run fine (I fixed your infinite While loop as well).
Sub SomeMacro()
' Name your macros with some kind of informative name
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
' 'k' is never used, delete this.
' Dim k As Integer
Dim Resumen As Worksheet
Set Resumen = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Resumen")
' You should avoid activate and select like the plague. Qualify and directly modify instead.
' Worksheets("Resumen").Activate
'
' This reference is unqualified, and operates on the active sheet. Use a qualification instead.
' Columns("Q:V").EntireColumn.Delete
Resumen.Columns("Q:V").EntireColumn.Delete
' Declared j as Long instead of Integer. Otherwise you will eventually hit an overflow error. Always use Long over Integer.
Dim j As Long
j = 3
' If Resumen is a codename (you named the sheet directly using the VBE) then this would work fine
' without first declaring 'Resumen' as a variable, and then setting it properly.
Do While Not IsEmpty(Resumen.Cells(j, "A"))
If Not Resumen.Cells(j, 1).Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone Then
Resumen.Range(Resumen.Cells(j, 1), Resumen.Cells(j, 2)).Delete Shift:=xlToUp
End If
' Moved this within the loop since otherwise you will have an infinite loop
j = j + 1
Loop
' You could also use a with block here instead:
' With Resumen
' Do While Not IsEmpty(.Cells(j, "A"))
' If Not .Cells(j, 1).Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone Then
' .Range(.Cells(j, 1), .Cells(j, 2)).Delete Shift:=xlToUp
' End If

The following lines…
Resumen.Range(.Cells(j, 1), Cells(j, 2)).Delete Shift:=xlToUp
Should be
Resumen.Range(Resumen.Cells(j, 1), Resumen.Cells(j, 2)).Delete Shift:=xlToUp
.Cells are used with a WITH and End With Block

[!includeSupport and feedback]
snipe, спасибо, j исправил.
про объявление переменных учту, но сейчас главное что бы программа работала корректно, оформлять код буду позже.
Так, всем интересующимся рассказываю, как должен работать макрос:
действующие столбцы: B, G, H.
просматриваем столбец B на одинаковые значения (они, повторяясь, сначала увеличиваются, потом уменьшаются).
считаем среднее арифметическое соответствующих значений в столбца G (у строк которых значение столбца B одинаковое). Далее вывод результата среднего арифметического в столбец H.
после нескольких дней одиночного мозгового штурма у меня получился вот такой код…
| Visual Basic | ||
|
объясняю. использовал в качестве фильтра (что б не повторялись значения столбца B) динамический массив. т.е. сначала в нём хранится значение первой значимой ячейки столбца B. потом, при нахождении в столбце B ещё одного нового значения — кол-во эл-тов массива увеличивается и последний элемент принимает новое значение из столбца B. далее снова проверка на схожесть.
наверное, можно было и без массива обойтись, просто как-то отсортировать столбец B с зависимыми значениями столбца G.
ещё была идея сделать двумерный массив типа String, первой мерой которого будет являться тот самый исключающий массив, а второй мерой — строка вычисления среднего арифметического.
не получилось корректно реализовать заполнение исключающего массива и вывод среднего арифметического
как-то так. возможно, ещё как предлагал в теории Hugo121, проще переписать код с другим алгоритмом
буду благодарен а любую помощь и дельные советы.
черновой вариант листа с данными приложил. ещё прикреплён скрин с ответом. так должны выглядеть данные в столбце H после использования макроса (можно и сразу значение среднего арифметического).
вообще макрос будет работать на 4-х страницах, по ~2000 строк в каждой. а сейчас просто тест, 1 страница с десятью строками данных.
