Hello,

Here below in the sheet I have shown 3 examples but need macro or formula which I want to create a custom range number list till max input….
Example1…D3 max range 890 friction 50 create range from 1 to 890 in range C6:E23

Example2…H3 max range 1249 friction 75 create range from 1 to 1249 in range G6:I22

Example2…L3 max range 930 friction 100 create range from 1 to 930 in range K6:M15

Note: I want a formula or a macro which can be used in Excel 2000 also.
Here is an example sheet with expected results…

Excel Facts

Square and cube roots
The =SQRT(25) is a square root. For a cube root, use =125^(1/3). For a fourth root, use =625^(1/4).
Simpler if you could put that Friction number in its own cell.

Also remember that with XL2BB, no need to show irrelevant columns/rows (eg columns A:B here). Either hide them or just not include them in your selection. Keeps your mini sheet smaller.

Try the next alternative.
It would be more convenient if you put the friction value in one cell and the title in another cell, see my example.

motilulla because you can never have too many solutions, here is another one. If you have any problems, questions or suggestions, let us know.
VBA Code:
Sub Prog2()

Dim Count2 As Double
Dim Fric As Integer
Dim CellCnt As Integer

Count = Range("D3")
Fric = Range("E4")
CellCnt = Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
    Range(Range("C6"), Cells(CellCnt, 5)).Select
    Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
    
    
Range("C6") = 1
Range("D6") = "To"
Range("E6") = Fric

Count2 = Range("D3") / Range("E4")

For i = 7 To (5 + Count2)

Cells(i, 3) = Cells(i - 1, 5) + 1
Cells(i, 4) = "To"
Cells(i, 5) = Fric + Cells(i - 1, 5)

Next i

If Range("D3") > Cells(i, 5) Then
    Cells(i, 3) = Cells(i - 1, 5) + 1
    Cells(i, 4) = "To"
    Cells(i, 5) = Range("D3")
End If

Columns("C:E").Select
With Selection
        .HorizontalAlignment = xlCenter
        .VerticalAlignment = xlBottom
        .WrapText = False
        .Orientation = 0
        .AddIndent = False
        .IndentLevel = 0
        .ShrinkToFit = False
        .ReadingOrder = xlContext
        .MergeCells = False
    End With
Range("C6").Select
End Sub

Hello Peter_SSs, I want to conform that your formula worked perfect to my both versions.

I will follow-up your suggestion next time and will defiantly keep mini sheet smaller, thank you for your guidance.

Thank you for your kind help.

Nice weekend and wish you Good Luck.

Kind Regards,
Moti :)

Hello DanteAmor, I can say your formula worked perfectly with version 2010 but not with 2000 I guess function “=IFERROR” does not have in version 2000 may be that can be the reason.

Thank you for your kind help.

Nice weekend and wish you Good Luck.

Moti :)

Hello Ezguy4u, I like your VBA solution it is more practical. I think it does not need to be included 2 following lines code can be removed.
VBA Code:
Range(Range("C6"), Cells(CellCnt, 5)).Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
Secondly it works perfect till Friction 32767, as I increase to 32768 it gives me an error “6” and code stop at line below
Code:
Fric = Range("E4")
and highlight in yellow. For example you try put max range 5.000.000 and Friction 32768 it will produce the error "6". Please can you take a look at it?

Thank you for your kind help.

Nice weekend and wish you Good Luck.

Kind Regards,
Moti:)

Moti the line "CellCnt = Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row" is also a part of those 2 lines of code and what they all do is delete the previous calculation. Now you could take those 3 lines out, but you would have to manually delete the previous calculation. Now I have to ask you a question, is 5.000.000 the same as 5,000,000? In other words, are you using a period instead of a comma? Even better is to use no period or commas. Just 5000000 is better. Let's try another Dim statement. Again if you have any questions, let us know. Maybe some A+ student can suggest a better Dim that Variant.

VBA Code:
Sub Prog3()

Dim Fric As Variant
Dim CellCnt As Integer
Dim Count2 As Variant

Count = Range("D3")
Fric = Range("E4")
CellCnt = Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
    Range(Range("C6"), Cells(CellCnt, 5)).Select
    Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
    
    
Range("C6") = 1
Range("D6") = "To"
Range("E6") = Fric

Count2 = Range("D3") / Range("E4")

For i = 7 To (5 + Count2)

Cells(i, 3) = Cells(i - 1, 5) + 1
Cells(i, 4) = "To"
Cells(i, 5) = Fric + Cells(i - 1, 5)

Next i

If Range("D3") > Cells(i, 5) Then
    Cells(i, 3) = Cells(i - 1, 5) + 1
    Cells(i, 4) = "To"
    Cells(i, 5) = Range("D3")
End If

Columns("C:E").Select
With Selection
        .HorizontalAlignment = xlCenter
        .VerticalAlignment = xlBottom
        .WrapText = False
        .Orientation = 0
        .AddIndent = False
        .IndentLevel = 0
        .ShrinkToFit = False
        .ReadingOrder = xlContext
        .MergeCells = False
    End With
Range("C6").Select
End Sub

Hello Ezguy4u, I am sorry you are correct I did not realized these lines delete all previous calculations while every time macro is run with new friction or max range it is absolutely perfect.
Now I have to ask you a question, is 5.000.000 the same as 5,000,000? In other words, are you using a period instead of a comma? Even better is to use no period or commas. Just 5000000 is better.
I was using the period separator “5.000.000 the same as 5,000,000” as per different regions settings. But I will follow-up your suggestion.
Let's try another Dim statement.
Wow Ezguy4u, this Dim statement worked like magic 100% accurate! 🙌
Maybe some A+ student can suggest a better Dim that Variant.
No need you are legend! 🤝
Again if you have any questions, let us know.
All is worked well here are the example results….

what they all do is delete the previous calculation.
A little risky in my opinion as if there was no previous calculation they delete everything in that header area.
I would also recommend not using one of vba's standard words as a variable name (eg Count) as that can sometimes lead to disastrous results.

Let's try another Dim statement
Here is another option with no Dim statements at all & no looping to create each row individually.
This also deletes any previous calculation but preserves the heading section if no prior calc.

VBA Code:
Sub CreateCustomRange()
  Range("C1", Range("E" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Offset(5).Clear
  With Range("C6:E6").Resize(Range("D3").Value / Range("E4").Value + 1)
    .Formula = Array("=C5+E$4", "To", "=min(E5+E$4,D$3)")
    .Cells(1).Value = 1
    .Value = .Value
    .Columns(2).HorizontalAlignment = xlCenter
    .Font.Bold = True
    If .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).Value > Range("D3").Value Then .Rows(.Rows.Count).Clear
  End With
End Sub

Example:
