Macro to Go To an intended date in a filtered range

[SanjayGMusafir]

Hi Experts
Recently, I got help from @kevin9999 in the following post

VBA to Go to Today in a filtered range

Hi Experts I use following code to jump to today in a filtered range. It works well when table is sorted by date first and then by any other field. But challenge arises when table is sorted first by any other field and then by date. In such cases present date(s) can be around 1000+ rows...

Once I got things working, I thought exploring options and adding more conditions to it.

Now I realized that instead of jumping to closest date for example in my case - rather than jumping to 20Nov (today-30) it jumps to 25 Sep (today-90)

I must have ignored something simple and unable to identify it.

Please help

Thanks a lot

The code I'm using right now is -

Dim x As Range
        For Each x In Worksheets("Bank").Range("C2", Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp))
            If x >= Date And x <= Date + 365 And x.EntireRow.Hidden = False Then
                x.Select
                Exit For
            ElseIf x >= Date - 30 And x <= Date And x.EntireRow.Hidden = False Then
                x.Select
                Exit For
            ElseIf x >= Date - 60 And x <= Date - 30 And x.EntireRow.Hidden = False Then
                x.Select
                Exit For
            ElseIf x >= Date - 90 And x <= Date - 60 And x.EntireRow.Hidden = False Then
                x.Select
                Exit For
            End If
        Next x

Give this a try.

Sub Sanjay()
    Dim a As Range, d As Date
    With Worksheets("Bank").Range("C2", Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp)).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
        d = Date
        For d = Date To Date - 10 Step -1   'Is there ever likely to be more than a 10 day gap?
            If Not .Find(d, After:=Range("C2")) Is Nothing Then
                Set a = .Find(d, After:=Range("C2"))
                a.Select
                Exit For
            End If
        Next d
    End With
End Sub

@kevin9999 The above doesn't seem to be working at all

Also in my case gaps can be very variable at times months and times daily transactions

The above code I tried with same sample data that I gave you in screenshot but it didn't work. Also it didn't work on unfiltered data too.

One more try for today

Option Explicit
Sub Sanjay_2()
    Dim ar, i As Long, j As Long, ws As Worksheet, LRow As Long
    Set ws = Worksheets("Bank")
    LRow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
    ar = ws.Range("C1", Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp))
    
    For i = 1 To UBound(ar, 1)
        If ar(i, 1) = CLng(Date) And Cells(i, 3).EntireRow.Hidden = False Then
            Cells(i, 3).Select
            Exit Sub
        ElseIf ar(i, 1) > CLng(Date) Then
            For j = 1 To (LRow - 1)
                If Cells(i - j, 3).EntireRow.Hidden = False Then
                    Cells(i - j, 3).Select
                    Exit Sub
                End If
            Next j
        End If
    Next i
End Sub

If ar(i, 1) = CLng(Date) And Cells(i, 3).EntireRow.Hidden = False Then

Gave error on this part of code

@kevin9999 Just a food for thought

Are we doing something wrong in this code? It's not ending at the right spot and jumping to the next condition...

OK. I can't go any further until you give me a sample of your actual sheet using the XL2BB add in. It doesn't have to be a huge amount, just the range you had in the images you've already posted will do. As a point of interest, the code worked for me based on what I think your actual data/structure looks like.

 

[SanjayGMusafir]

ar = ws.Range("C1", Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp))

Hi @kevin9999
An important feedback

Actually I tired to understand what this macro was doing. Then realized my table starts from cell C6. C5 being heading and 4 top rows freezed.

So, in the above line (code) changed C1 to C6 and it worked.

Most of the times it takes me closest to today.

But occasionally it it takes me to day before today even when current date is available.

Can you explain why it does that? Or help me with that?

Glad to hear you got it working Sanjay

But occasionally it it takes me to day before today even when current date is available.

I can't explain that. The code uses the reserved word Date to return the current date of your device's internal clock - so the input variable doesn't change each time. If your data also doesn't change (in value or visibility - remember the row must not be hidden) then there's no reason I can think of why you're getting different results occasionally.

Thanks again @kevin9999
It creates a better understanding for me for sure.
