Excel VBA find last row with data

In Excel, ctrl + end will go to the last cell with a value.

But this will be tricky if you have deleted the last row with a value or has deleted its contents on the cell. Since it will be recoded as the last cell that has a value or the user has inputted or type on that specific cell.  

And Excel will still remember it as the last type cell with value. Pressing ctrl + end will still go there, thus provide the wrong result. However, to prevent this from happening you need to close the workbook and open it again.

Then pressing ctrl + end will show the last row with value. But while the worksheet is active any last typed cell even though its content or deleted will be considered as the last row.

Getting the last row with data even without closing the workbook can be done via this simple VBA code below.

One caveat though, this will only search for the defined row within the VBA code and the number of rows to be checked has to be defined on the code also.

So, type a number that is quite large that is way beyond the number of lines that you expected.

Sub FindRowWithValue()

Dim i, xi, xloop As Integer

Dim s As String

xloop = 0

xi = 0

For xloop = 1 To 10000 ‘check cell A1 to A 10k

   s = Cells(xloop, 1).Value ‘(xloop is row, 1 is column which is A)

      i = Len(s) ‘check the length of the value 0 means no value

         If i > 0 Then
            xi = xloop
      End If

Next xloop

MsgBox ("Last row with data or valus is A" & xi)  ‘display the last row with value

End Sub

 

If need to check from row 10,001 onwards may result to runtime error 6 and overflow error.
So, to overcome this error; change the for-loop value.

Example change xloop to this:
For xloop = 12000 To 10001 Step -1

This will check row 10,001 until row 12,000

And just changed the number to any desired value to continue checking.

If the any last cell with has a value on the specified range, then that row will be returned.

To go to the specific last row, press ctrl + g then on the “reference” value type: A plus the last row value that was returned.

Example, if the msgbox value shows: A10675 then enter same value on reference value after pressing ctrl + g.

Till next time. Stay safe! and keep things up!

Notepad++ convert multiple lines to a single line and vice versa

Notepad++ is an awesome text editing tool, it can accept regex to process the text data. If the data is in a “.csv” format or comma separated values which is basically just a text file that can either be opened using a text editor, excel or even word. Notepad++ can process the contents of the file using regex. Example if the data has multiple rows or lines, and what is needed is to convert the whole lines of data into a single line. Notepad++ can easily do it using regex. However, if the data is on a single line and it needs to be converted into multiple lines or rows then regex can also be used for this case. Here’s an example on how to convert multiple rows or lines into a single line. Example data: Multiple rows, just a sample data.

WMIC get computer name

WMIC get computer model, manufacturer, computer name and  username. WMIC is a command-line tool and that can generate information about computer model, its manufacturer, its username and other informations depending on the parameters provided. Why would you need a command line tool if there’s a GUI to check? If you have 20 or 100 computers, or even more. It’s quite a big task just checking the GUI to check the computer model and username. If you have remote computers, you need to delegate someone in the remote office or location to check. Or you can just write a batch file or script to automate the task. Here’s the code below on how get computer model, manufacturer and the username. Open an elevated command prompt and type:     wmic computersystem get "Model","Manufacturer", "Name", "UserName" Just copy and paste the code above, the word “computersystem” does not need to be change to a computer name.
