Populate Rows & Columns by Comma Split

airforceone · Sep 5, 2024

Good day mate, need some advice here again

I would like to Populate Rows & Columns based on number of Comma Split
below code works for a single column, but would like to implement it to a couple of columns

VBA Code:

Sub Split_Seller_and_Buyer()
'   =====================
'          working
'   =====================

    Dim lastrow As Integer, i As Integer
    Dim descriptions() As String
    Dim Item As Variant
    
    With Worksheets("sht01")
        lastrow = .Range("C1").End(xlDown).Row
        For i = lastrow To 2 Step -1
            If InStr(1, .Range("C" & i).Value, ",") <> 0 Then
                descriptions = Split(.Range("C" & i).Value, ",")
            End If
            For Each Item In descriptions
                .Range("C" & i).Value = Item
                .Rows(i).Copy
                .Rows(i).Insert
            Next Item
            .Rows(i).EntireRow.Delete
    
        Next i
    End With
    
End Sub '   Split_Seller_and_Buyer

you could try this. However you would need to select the text you're wanting to affect before running the macro. Otherwise it would be a matter of just checking the "C" in the code to whatever column you want.

VBA Code:

Sub Split_Seller_and_Buyer()
'   =====================
'          working
'   =====================

    Dim lastrow As Integer, I As Integer
    Dim descriptions() As String
    Dim Item As Variant
    
    With Worksheets("sht01")
        lastrow = Selection.Cells.count
        For I = lastrow To 1 Step -1
            
            If InStr(1, Selection.Cells(I).Value, ",") <> 0 Then
                descriptions = Split(Selection.Cells(I).Value, ",")
            End If

            For Each Item In descriptions
                Selection.Cells(I).Value = Item
                Selection.Cells(I).Copy
                Selection.Cells(I).Insert Shift:=xlDown
            Next Item
            Selection.Cells(I).EntireRow.Delete

        Next I
    End With
    
End Sub '   Split_Seller_and_Buyer

Also I noticed that if the r\cell does not have a comma, it will still do the last change, so Im assuming EVERY cell will have a comma?

Try this code:

VBA Code:

Option Explicit

Sub Split_Seller_and_Buyer()

    Dim lastrow&, i&, ii&, iii&, k&
    Dim dArr, rArr, Arr1, Arr2
    Dim U1&, U2&
    ReDim rArr(1 To 1000000, 1 To 4)
    
    With Worksheets("sht01")
        lastrow = .Range("C1").End(xlDown).Row
        dArr = .Range("C2:D" & lastrow).Value
        For i = 1 To UBound(dArr, 1)
            Arr1 = Split(dArr(i, 1), ",")
            Arr2 = Split(dArr(i, 2), ",")
            U1 = UBound(Arr1)
            U2 = UBound(Arr2)
            For ii = 0 To U1
                For iii = 0 To U2
                    k = k + 1
                    rArr(k, 1) = Arr1(ii)
                    rArr(k, 2) = Arr2(iii)
                    rArr(k, 3) = U1 + 1
                    rArr(k, 4) = U2 + 1
                Next iii
            Next ii
        Next i
    Range("C2").Resize(k, 4).Value = rArr
    End With
End Sub

    End With
End Sub

does not meet the expected result mate

Try change to:

VBA Code:

    Dim lastrow&, i&, ii&, iii&, k&
    Dim dArr, rArr, Arr1, Arr2
    Dim U1&, U2&
    ReDim rArr(1 To 1000000, 1 To 5)
    
    With Worksheets("sht01")
        lastrow = .Range("C1").End(xlDown).Row
        dArr = .Range("A2:E" & lastrow).Value
        For i = 1 To UBound(dArr, 1)
            Arr1 = Split(dArr(i, 2), ",")
            Arr2 = Split(dArr(i, 3), ",")
            U1 = UBound(Arr1)
            U2 = UBound(Arr2)
            For ii = 0 To U1
                For iii = 0 To U2
                    k = k + 1
                    rArr(k, 1) = dArr(i, 1)
                    rArr(k, 2) = Arr1(ii)
                    rArr(k, 3) = Arr2(iii)
                    rArr(k, 4) = dArr(i, 4)
                    rArr(k, 5) = dArr(i, 5)
                Next iii
            Next ii
        Next i
    Range("A2").Resize(k, 5).Value = rArr

            Next ii
        Next i
    Range("A2").Resize(k, 5).Value = rArr
    End With
End Sub

that code seems to do the job just a quick query what does

VBA Code:

Dim lastrow&, i&, ii&, iii&, k&

means? what type is it?

Phuoc · Sep 6, 2024

Dim lastrow&, i&, ii&, iii&, k&

like this:

Dim lastrow as Long, i as Long, ii as Long, iii as Long, k as Long

ok thanks mate... late reply due to typhoon

An alternative to VBA with Power Query

Power Query:

let
    Source = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table1"]}[Content],
    #"Split Column by Delimiter" = Table.ExpandListColumn(Table.TransformColumns(Source, {{"Seller", Splitter.SplitTextByDelimiter(",", QuoteStyle.Csv), let itemType = (type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true] in type {itemType}}}), "Seller"),
    #"Split Column by Delimiter1" = Table.ExpandListColumn(Table.TransformColumns(#"Split Column by Delimiter", {{"Buyer", Splitter.SplitTextByDelimiter(",", QuoteStyle.Csv), let itemType = (type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true] in type {itemType}}}), "Buyer")
in
    #"Split Column by Delimiter1"
