Hi,



I have some problem with VBA coding when i want to make a Vlookup and the TableArray always starts from Column "A" to "K", but the rows can differ depending on the situation.



For example

Range("P1").Value = Range("O2").Value & Range("M2").Value

Range("P2").Value = Range("O3").Value & Range("M3").Value



I have written "A" in cell "O2" and "K" in cell "O3". M2 and M3 is a row number I will get from a formula. So lets say M2=10 and M3=20, this means my "P1" will be A10 and "P2" will be K20. So the table array i want in Vlookup is A10:K20. But somehow the code is wrong, when i use "ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=VLOOKUP(RC[-8], Indirect(P1): Indirect(P2), 10, FALSE)"



I have tried many and different solution, but it didnt work out. This is my latest, but failed solution. I attach a file since maybe my explanation is not that good. It is supposed to do Vlookup under any column under "Last week" and to get the "current week" comments.



The whole code is here:

VBA Code:
ActiveCell.Offset(-2, -9).Select

ActiveCell.Copy

Range("M1").PasteSpecial

Range("M1") = Range("M1").Value

Range("M2") = "=Match(M1-4,A:A,0)"

Range("M3") = "=Match(M1-3,A:A,0)"

Range("M4") = "=Match(M1-0,A:A,0)"

Range("M4").Copy

Range("M10").Select

Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _

:=False, Transpose:=False

Range("M10") = Range("M10").Value

Range("M2") = Range("M2").Value

Range("M3") = Range("M3").Value

Range("P1").Value = Range("O2").Value & Range("M2").Value

Range("P2").Value = Range("O3").Value & Range("M3").Value

I = Range("M10").Value

Cells(I + 2, 10).Select

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=VLOOKUP(RC[-8], Indirect(P1): Indirect(P2), 10, FALSE)"

End Sub

Excel Facts

Format cells as time
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+2 to format cells as time. (Shift 2 is the @ sign).
If you are using FormulaR1C1 then all the references in the formula need to be in R1C1 notation.

Don't really understand what you are trying to do, but change O2 to B & then this should work
VBA Code:
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=VLOOKUP(RC[-8], Indirect(r1c16):Indirect(r2c16), 10, FALSE)"

It is difficult to explain, but thank you so much! :) It works! Possible to put this thread as solved?
