please look at the code i have below and the image label1 = 2 represents index of winsock
trying to count the index of winsock with the list1 /index values and if non are matched with label2 then remove item
On Error Resume Next
Dim demopacket() As String
Dim X As Integer
For X = List1.ListCount - 1 To 0 Step -1
demopacket() = Split(List1.List(X), "/")
Dim num As Integer
num = num + 1
Debug.Print num
If num = Label1.Caption Then
'Exit For
End If
If Label1.Caption = demopacket(2) Then
Else
List1.RemoveItem X
lstOnline.RemoveItem X
'RemoveUser List1.List(X)
'RemoveUserFromRoom List1.List(X)
Call RemoveUser(demopacket(0))
Call RemoveUserFromRoom(demopacket(0))
Call RoomCount(demopacket(1), False)
End If
'Debug.Print demopacket(0)
'demopacket(0) username
'demopacket(1) roomname
'demopacket(2) index
Next
still removes index users that exist
so again
label1.caption = 2
xxx2x/room1/4 Remove
jas8du2/room1/1

Below code works great as expected the only downside is its slow because I am using this to search for all the instances of the substring and delete the Entire row if found in any cell of the whole workbook.
Aim is simple just delete the entirerow if the entered string is found in any cell string
Dim wo As Worksheet, ws As Worksheet
Dim I As Long, j As Long, m As Long
Dim toFind As String, testStr As String
Dim pos As Long
Dim lstRow As Long, cutRow As Long
Dim WS_Count As Integer
Dim Cell As Range
Option Compare Text
Option Explicit
Sub SearchDelete()
toFind = InputBox("Enter the substring you want to search for.", "Welcome", "AAAA")
toFind = Trim(toFind)
j = 0
If toFind = "" Then
MsgBox "Empty String Entered.Exiting Sub Now."
Exit Sub
Else
WS_Count = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets.Count
'Begin the loop.
For I = 1 To WS_Count
Label1:
For Each Cell In Worksheets(I).UsedRange.Cells
If Trim(Cell.Text) <> "" Then
pos = 0
pos = InStr(1, Trim(Cell.Text), toFind, vbTextCompare)
If pos > 0 Then 'match Found'
cutRow = Cell.Row
Worksheets(I).Rows(cutRow).EntireRow.Delete
j = j + 1
GoTo Label1
Else: End If
Else: End If
Next Cell
Next I
End If
MsgBox "Total " & j & " Rows were deleted!"
End Sub
Individual operations are pretty much always slower than bulk operations and the Range.Delete method is no exception. Collecting the matching rows with a Union method and then performing the removal en masse will significantly speed up the operation.
Temporarily suspending certain application environment handlers will also help things along. You do not need Application.ScreenUpdating active while you are removing rows; only after you have completed the operation.

The answer to your question: "How to speed up this code to find and delete rows if a substring is found" is - DON'T repeat the search from the top of the sheet after you found and removed the row!
So I have the script below in Execl VB that goes through the rows and deletes the ones that don't contain a certain keyword.
Sub Main()
RowsDeleted = 0
Keyword = "COLA"
For i = 2 to ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
If InStr(Cells(i, 1).Value, Keyword) = 0 Then
Rows(i).Delete
RowsDeleted = RowsDeleted + 1
i = i - 1
End If
Next i
MsgBox("Rows Deleted: " & RowsDeleted)
End Sub
The problem is that this script takes a very long time to execute (around 8 minutes for ~73000 entries). Why is that and how would I go about improving it?
no offense to other answer, but this will only help with troubleshooting.
what you need to do is remove the the line of code
Rows(i).Delete
inside the (potentially) long running For loop is what is causing the slow down.
you need to re-write it like this...
Sub Main()
RowsDeleted = 0
Keyword = "COLA"
Dim rng As Excel.Range
Dim arr() As Variant
Dim str As String
arr = ActiveSheet.UsedRange
Dim R As Long
For R = 1 To UBound(arr, 1) ' First array dimension is rows.
If InStr(arr(R, 1), Keyword) = 0 Then
If str <> "" Then
str = "," & str
End If
str = str & arr(R, 1).Address
End If
Next R
Set rng = ActiveSheet.Range(str)
RowsDeleted = rng.Rows.Count
rng.Delete
MsgBox ("Rows Deleted: " & RowsDeleted)
End Sub
It takes ages may due to formulas in your cells that are going to be deleted.
What you should do is to turn off auto calculation and Clear the contents of that row before delete. Also you should start from bottom up!
Try this:
Sub Main()
Dim lMode As Long
' Store initial state of Calculation mode
lMode = Application.Calculation
' Change to Manual Calculation
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
' Disable screen update
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
RowsDeleted = 0
Keyword = "COLA"
' Start from bottom up!
For i = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count To 2 Step -1
If InStr(Cells(i, 1).Value, Keyword) = 0 Then
Rows(i).ClearContents
Rows(i).Delete
RowsDeleted = RowsDeleted + 1
End If
Next i
' Restore screenupdate and calculation mode
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.Calculation = lMode
MsgBox ("Rows Deleted: " & RowsDeleted)
End Sub
Here could be something to look at,
It filters Column A for cells <>"Cola" and clears them
It then sorts column A so the blank cells in column A are now at the bottom
It then deletes the blank rows.
Not knowing the setup of the OP's ws, there may have to be adjustments made.
On my sample sheet I use 81,000 rows, when I run the code it takes about 5 seconds.
Sub SomeDeleteCode()
Dim Rws As Long, Rng As Range, nwRw As Long
Rws = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Application.ScreenUpdating = 0
Application.Calculation = xlCalculateManual
Columns("A:A").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="<>*Cola*"
Set Rng = Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(Rws, 1)).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
Rng.ClearContents
ActiveSheet.AutoFilterMode = 0
Columns(1).Sort Key1:=Range("A1"), Header:=xlYes
nwRw = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Range(Range("B" & nwRw + 1), Range("B" & nwRw + 1).End(xlDown)).EntireRow.Delete
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
End Sub
Amend your code to look like this:
Sub Main()
On Error Goto ErrHandler
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
RowsDeleted = 0
Keyword = "COLA"
For i = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count to 2
If InStr(Cells(i, 1).Value, Keyword) = 0 Then
Rows(i).Delete
RowsDeleted = RowsDeleted + 1
' i = i - 1 ' -- manually changing the loop counter is a bad idea
End If
Next i
MsgBox("Rows Deleted: " & RowsDeleted)
EndSub:
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
exit sub
ErrHandler:
' Error handling here
resume EndSub
End Sub
The error handler is required to ensure that the ScreenUpdating is restored, even in case of an error.
Ok so I've searched and searched and can't quite find what I'm looking for.
I have a workbook and what I'm basically trying to do is take the entries from certain ranges (Sheet1 - E4:E12, E14:E20, I4:I7, I9:I12, I14:I17, & I19:I21) and put them in a separate list on Sheet2. I then want the new list on Sheet2 to be sorted by how many times an entry appeared on Sheet1 as well as display the amount.
example http://demonik.doomdns.com/images/excel.png
Obviously as can be seen by the ranges I listed above, this sample is much smaller lol, was just having trouble trying to figure out how to describe everything and figured an image would help.
Basically I am trying to use VBA (the update would be initialized by hitting a button) to copy data from Sheet1 and put all the ranges into one list in Sheet2 that is sorted by how many times it appeared on Sheet1, and then alphabetically.
If a better discription is needed just comment and let me know, I've always been horrible at trying to describe stuff like this lol.
Thanks in advance!
Another detail: I cant have it search for specific things as the data in the ranges on Sheet1 may change. Everything must be dynamic.
I started out with this data
and used the following code to read it into an array, sort the array, and count the duplicate values, then output the result to sheet2
Sub Example()
Dim vCell As Range
Dim vRng() As Variant
Dim i As Integer
ReDim vRng(0 To 0) As Variant
Sheets("Sheet2").Cells.Delete
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
For Each vCell In ActiveSheet.UsedRange
If vCell.Value <> "" Then
ReDim Preserve vRng(0 To i) As Variant
vRng(i) = vCell.Value
i = i + 1
End If
Next
vRng = CountDuplicates(vRng)
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(UBound(vRng), UBound(vRng, 2))) = vRng
Rows(1).Insert
Range("A1:B1") = Array("Entry", "Times Entered")
ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Sort Range("B1"), xlDescending
End Sub
Function CountDuplicates(List() As Variant) As Variant()
Dim CurVal As String
Dim NxtVal As String
Dim DupCnt As Integer
Dim Result() As Variant
Dim i As Integer
Dim x As Integer
ReDim Result(1 To 2, 0 To 0) As Variant
List = SortAZ(List)
For i = 0 To UBound(List)
CurVal = List(i)
If i = UBound(List) Then
NxtVal = ""
Else
NxtVal = List(i + 1)
End If
If CurVal = NxtVal Then
DupCnt = DupCnt + 1
Else
DupCnt = DupCnt + 1
ReDim Preserve Result(1 To 2, 0 To x) As Variant
Result(1, x) = CurVal
Result(2, x) = DupCnt
x = x + 1
DupCnt = 0
End If
Next
Result = WorksheetFunction.Transpose(Result)
CountDuplicates = Result
End Function
Function SortAZ(MyArray() As Variant) As Variant()
Dim First As Integer
Dim Last As Integer
Dim i As Integer
Dim x As Integer
Dim Temp As String
First = LBound(MyArray)
Last = UBound(MyArray)
For i = First To Last - 1
For x = i + 1 To Last
If MyArray(i) > MyArray(x) Then
Temp = MyArray(x)
MyArray(x) = MyArray(i)
MyArray(i) = Temp
End If
Next
Next
SortAZ = MyArray
End Function
End Result:
Here is a possible solution that I have started for you. What you are asking to be done gets rather complicated. Here is what I have so far:
Option Explicit
Sub test()
Dim items() As String
Dim itemCount() As String
Dim currCell As Range
Dim currString As String
Dim inArr As Boolean
Dim arrLength As Integer
Dim iterator As Integer
Dim x As Integer
Dim fullRange As Range
Set fullRange = Range("E1:E15")
iterator = 0
For Each cell In fullRange 'cycle through the range that has the values
inArr = False
For Each currString In items 'cycle through all values in array, if
'values is found in array, then inArr is set to true
If currCell.Value = currString Then 'if the value in the cell we
'are currently checking is in the array, then set inArr to true
inArr = True
End If
Next
If inArr = False Then 'if we did not find the value in the array
arrLength = arrLength + 1
ReDim Preserve items(arrLength) 'resize the array to fit the new values
items(iterator) = currCell.Value 'add the value to the array
iterator = iterator + 1
End If
Next
'This where it gets tricky. Now that you have all unique values in the array,
'you will need to count how many times each value is in the range.
'You can either make another array to hold those values or you can
'put those counts on the sheet somewhere to store them and access them later.
'This is tough stuff! It is not easy what you need to be done.
For x = 1 To UBound(items)
Next
End Sub
All that this does so far is get unique values into the array so that you can count how many times each one is in the range.
I have a little vb6 program:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim varTemp As Variant
Dim string1 As String
Dim x As Integer
x = 0
dialog.Filter = "toate fisierele(*.*) | *.*"
dialog.Flags = cdlOFNAllowMultiselect Or cdlOFNLongNames Or cdlOFNExplorer
'open the window to select files
dialog.ShowOpen
varTemp = Split(dialog.FileName, vbNullChar)
Do While (varTemp(x) <> "")
string1 = varTemp(x)
x = x + 1
Loop
Unload Form1
End
End Sub
I want the Do While to loop until it reaches the end of varTemp. However, when I choose two files from the dialog and "Do While" is hit with x = 3 I get "Run-time error '9': Subscript out of range". What condition should the "Do While" loop have to loop until the end of varTemp? Thank you.
You can use this instead:
Do While x <= UBound(varTemp)
Since varTemp will be an array, this will loop until you hit the last element in the array.
In case the user cancels the selection, and varTemp is empty, you may check for an empty string before looping, like this:
If varTemp <> vbNullString Then
Do While x <= UBound(varTemp)
string1 = varTemp(x)
x = x + 1
Loop
End If
I have a list of items in an Excel worksheet, A1-B115. At the moment I can enter 10 variables which retrieves the correct data from the list.
Code now:
C1=1 - run through A1-A115 and check for the value to be between 1000-2000; if so, copy the B value somewhere.
C2=1 - run through A1-A115 and check for the value to be between 2001-3000; if so, copy the B value somewhere.
....
What I would like to do is that I can enter a value (example: 25 or 30) and that my macro randomly selects the right amount of values.
Code I would like to do: C1: 30 -> randomly selects 30 values from B1-B115
This will do the trick.
Sub PickRandomItemsFromList()
Const nItemsToPick As Long = 10
Const nItemsTotal As Long = 115
Dim rngList As Range
Dim varRandomItems() As Variant
Dim i As Long
Set rngList = Range("B1").Resize(nItemsTotal, 1)
ReDim varRandomItems(1 To nItemsToPick)
For i = 1 To nItemsToPick
varRandomItems(i) = rngList.Cells(Int(nItemsTotal * Rnd + 1), 1)
Next i
' varRandomItems now contains nItemsToPick random items from range rngList.
End Sub
As discussed in the comments, this will allow individual items to be picked more than once within the nItemsToPick picked, if for example number 63 happens to be randomly picked twice. If you don't want this to happen, then an additional loop will have to be added to check whether the item about to be picked is already in the list, for example like so:
Sub PickRandomItemsFromList()
Const nItemsToPick As Long = 10
Const nItemsTotal As Long = 115
Dim rngList As Range
Dim idx() As Long
Dim varRandomItems() As Variant
Dim i As Long
Dim j As Long
Dim booIndexIsUnique As Boolean
Set rngList = Range("B1").Resize(nItemsTotal, 1)
ReDim idx(1 To nItemsToPick)
ReDim varRandomItems(1 To nItemsToPick)
For i = 1 To nItemsToPick
Do
booIndexIsUnique = True ' Innoncent until proven guilty
idx(i) = Int(nItemsTotal * Rnd + 1)
For j = 1 To i - 1
If idx(i) = idx(j) Then
' It's already there.
booIndexIsUnique = False
Exit For
End If
Next j
If booIndexIsUnique = True Then
Exit Do
End If
Loop
varRandomItems(i) = rngList.Cells(idx(i), 1)
Next i
' varRandomItems now contains nItemsToPick unique random
' items from range rngList.
End Sub
Note that this will loop forever if nItemsToPick > nItemsTotal !
I would use a collection to make sure you don't get any duplicates.
Function cItemsToPick(NrOfItems As Long, NrToPick As Long) As Collection
Dim cItemsTotal As New Collection
Dim K As Long
Dim I As Long
Set cItemsToPick = New Collection
If NrToPick > NrOfItems Then Exit Function
For I = 1 To NrOfItems
cItemsTotal.Add I
Next I
For I = 1 To NrToPick
K = Int(cItemsTotal.Count * Rnd + 1)
cItemsToPick.Add cItemsTotal(K)
cItemsTotal.Remove (K)
Next I
Set cItemsTotal = Nothing
End Function
You can test this function with the following code:
Sub test()
Dim c As New Collection
Dim I As Long
Set c = cItemsToPick(240, 10)
For I = 1 To c.Count
Debug.Print c(I)
Next I
End Sub
