Need to find specific time value in one column, then use data from that row in a formula

[courtney p]

I'm hoping one of you brilliant minds out there can help me out. I'm brand new to VBA, and am currently stumped by this step in my macro. I have been given the task of importing a text file system log into excel, weeding out the data that I need, putting a timestamp on each entry, and then taking the pertinent data and plugging it into simple average and percentage formulas. I've gotten so far as the import and timestamp, but now I need to find the rows that fall into the time parameters that we care about. Each day the system log will start and end at different times - so I have an input box where I enter the start time and that is plugged into cell A1 in hh:mm:ss AM/PM format. It then autofills the cells in the column adding 30 seconds to each following row since the log captures data on an every 30 second loop. Here's my problem - I need to find the cell that contains a 9:30 PM start time and a 7:00 AM start time and then from those rows, I need to take the data that is in column J and plug that number into an average formula - for example, row 17 has the 9:30 PM start time, and row 1114 has the 7:00 AM start time, so the formula needs to be = AVERAGE(J17:J1114). This will vary in each file, but the start and end time that I need to find, and the column with the pertinent data will stay the same.

Please let me know if you need more information and I will do my very best to reply clearly. Thanks so much!!

A lot of it is just useless data. But essentially, I need to find the cell that contains a 9:30 PM start time (it will vary in each log - sometimes we start capturing it right at 9:30 pm and so will be in A1, but other times it will be earlier - so the cell with 9:30 PM may be in cell A23 - as an example). So I need to find where 9:30 PM is and where 7:30 AM is, and then using those rows, take the data in column J and get the average of that. So if 9:30 pm is in row 23, and 7:30 am is in row 1114, then my formula will read =average(J23:J1114).

does that help? Thanks so much for responding!!

I presume that 9:30 PM and 7:30 AM occur only once

then try this macro

Sub test()
Dim r1 As Range, r2 As Range, c1 As Range, c2 As Range
On Error Resume Next
Set r1 = Cells.Find(what:=TimeValue("9:30 PM"), lookat:=xlWhole)
If r1 Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "9:30 PM is not avaiable"
Exit Sub
End If
Set r2 = Cells.Find(what:=TimeValue("7:30 AM"), lookat:=xlWhole)
If r2 Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "7:30 PM is not available"
Exit Sub
End If
Set c1 = Cells(r1.Row, "J")
Set c2 = Cells(r2.Row, "J")

MsgBox WorksheetFunction.Average(Range(c1, c2))

End Sub

That is phenomenal!! Thank you so much Venkat. The only change I need to make is that rather than have the average be entered into a message box, I need it to populate cell P1. But I think this has gotten me over the main hurdle and I should be able to work it out from here. Of course, if you want to offer suggestions on that, I would gladly accept them. Thank you again!!

Okay, I've hit quite a large snag that I can't seem to get past. All of the timevalues after 11:59:59 PM now show 1/1/1900 12:00:00 AM, etc. So when I do the search for 7:00 AM, it can't find it. I then tried to adjust the cells.find for TimeValue = ("1/1/1900 7:00 AM") and it still won't come up. I also tried DateValue. No luck. Even though the formatting for the cells is just hh:nn:ss it still has the date in the formula bar. Is there any getting around this? It has killed my otherwise lovely macro.

 

[venkat1926]

highlight the column in which time is entered. Format this column as TIME choose which looks similar to 9:30 PM
if your are not familiar with formatting in excel
select the column
click Format(menu bar)-cellls_number-time-<choose items similar to 9:30 PM".

now try to run the macro

If you are still having problem revert to newsgroup

If your are successful confirm

 

[venkat1926]

I need it to populate cell P1.

after the last line

MsgBox WorksheetFunction.Average(Range(c1, c2))

add a statement

range("P1")=WorksheetFunction.Average(Range(c1, c2))

if you are comfortable with the macro you can delete the line

MsgBox WorksheetFunction.Average(Range(c1, c2))
