I’m trying to create a macro that uses Index/match functions to match and pull data from one sheet into another. I did it in Excel and it works perfect. However the reports are “dynamic” (the size changes) so I need the last row of my code to be dynamic as well.
The following is what I have done. I’m NOW getting a “type mismatch” error (I emphasize “now” since every time I find a solution for one error another pop’s up).
Dim prosheet As Worksheet
Dim prosheet2 As Worksheet
Set prosheet2 = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("shipstation")
Set prosheet = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("macrotestfb")
lr1 = prosheet.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
lr2 = prosheet2.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
lrship = prosheet.Cells(Rows.Count, 10).End(xlUp).Row
lrindex = prosheet2.Cells(Rows.Column, 14).End(xlUp).Row
'CALCULATE SHIPPING COST
For x = prosheet.range("j6") To lrship
x = Application.WorksheetFunction.Index(prosheet2.range("a1:n" & lrindex), Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(prosheet.range("a6:a" & lr1), prosheet2.range("a1:a" & lr2), 0), prosheet2.range("f2"))
Next x
Match, in its non array form, only likes one value in the first criterion and not a range.
Also WorksheetFunction.Match will throw an error that will stop the code if a match is not found.
I like to pull the match into its own line and test for the error.
I also adjusted your For statement.
There is no detriment to searching an entire column so I got rid of a few of you last row searches as they are not needed.
Dim prosheet As Worksheet
Dim prosheet2 As Worksheet
Dim x As Long
Dim t As Long
Set prosheet2 = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("shipstation")
Set prosheet = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("macrotestfb")
lrship = prosheet.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
'CALCULATE SHIPPING COST
For x = 6 To lrship
t = 0
On Error Resume Next
t = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(prosheet.Range("A" & x), prosheet2.Range("A:A"), 0)
On Error GoTo 0
If t > 0 Then
prosheet.Cells(x, "J").Value = prosheet2.Range("F"&t)
Else
prosheet.Cells(x, "J").Value = "Item does not Exist"
End If
Next x
Answer:
Note:
Instead of an Index
/Match
combo which you might use on the worksheet, you can use Application.Match
in VBA. Something like this:
Sub GetMatch
Dim indexRng As Range, matchRng as Range
Set indexRng = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1:A10")
Set matchRng = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("B1:B10")
debug.print indexRng.Cells(Application.Match("something",matchRng,0)).Value
End Sub
