format a report using VBA & add totals & subtotals


Posted by Mickael on September 07, 2001 9:10 AM

I would like to automatically format lines of rawdata using VBA in order to create a report with specific borders, spaces, column width... + add subtotals & totals to the report (the formats available using pivot tables do not correspond to my need). The raw data is to change every month (more or less lines / samme number of columns).
Could anyone give me line of code examples, usefull tips or point me to interesting resources ? Thank you.

To select the entire data when you open the file, use
Range("A1", Range("A1").End(xlDown).End(xlToRight).Address).Select

You can then use the Macro Recording function to finish off the rest of your VBA code.

Hope this helps you out. If not, let me know and I'll help you out further.

Just a minute ....


The entire data range is not necessarily selected by :-
Range("A1", Range("A1").End(xlDown).End(xlToRight).Address).Select

What would the code be, Barrie, for selecting the entire data range for all possible conditions that may exist on a worksheet?
(Also, why would you want to actually select the range?)

You are correct..

My code might not necessarily select all cells. I was assuming that the raw data had information in each cell of the data range. That is, no blank cells. If that is the case, my code would work. You could also use
Range("A1", ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlLastCell)).Select

As far as why I would want to select these cells, I assumed that Mickael would want to put sub-totals since he indicated this. You would need to select all cells to add sub-totals, using Excel's sub-total function.

Barrie

With VBA, not necessary to select the cells to add sub-totals.

Thanks,

Heres a quick ex. Barrie

Sub Test()
Dim SumRg As Range
Dim Result as Double

Set SumRg = Range("A1", Range("A1").End(xlDown).End(xlToRight).Address)

MsgBox "Sum of the range [" & SumRg.Address & "] = " & WorksheetFunction.Sum(SumRg)

End Sub

Rows("1:10").Subtotal GroupBy:=1, Function:=xlSum, TotalList:=Array(1)

But ...


Your macro does not produce sub-totals, which is what Barrie was asking about.
