macro to get sub-totals


Posted by Colin Sullivan on October 05, 2001 9:24 AM

I need to find a macro so that it will search down a specific column for the word Sub-Total and then sum the data in a different column since the last instance of the word sub-total.

I cannot figure this out but anyone who can help please do.

Thanks, Colin

Option Explicit

Sub SubTotal()
'this should do it but you will have to change three things
'to suit your needs
'run this code on a copy of your worksheet

Dim MyCol
'change 6 to column you want subtotals in
'where A = 1, B = 2, C = 3. . .
MyCol = 7

Dim SubCol
'change 1 to the column number that contains "Sub-Total"
'where A = 1, B = 2, C = 3. . .
SubCol = 1

Dim ValCol
'change 3 to the column number that you want to use for subtotals
'where A = 1, B = 2, C = 3. . .
ValCol = 3

'****************************************
'Don't change anything below this point

Dim MySub
MySub = 0
Cells(1, MyCol).Select
Do While Selection.Row <> ActiveSheet.Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row + 1
If Cells(Selection.Row, SubCol) = "Sub-Total" Then
MySub = MySub + Cells(Selection.Row, ValCol)
Selection = MySub
Selection.Offset(1, 0).Select
Else
Selection.Offset(1, 0).Select
End If
Loop
End Sub
