Hi can anyone help?

I have values in cells "E4:K4" sheet1 that change when commandbutton2 is clicked.

Cells "E5:K7" sheet1 also have values that change

If any values in cells "E5:K7" match values in cells "E4:K4" when the command button is clicked then I want to remove these values from the cells "E5:K7" and continue the same process each time the command button is clicked until there are only 7 values left in cells ""E5:K7"

Any help would be appreciated

Regards

pwill
 

Excel Facts

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
Do the values in
- E5:E7 need to match E4
- F5:F7 need to match F4
etc??

OR
Does any value found in any cell in E5:K7 match any value found in any cell in E4:K4

test in a copy of your worksheet

Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
    Dim cel As Range
    For Each cel In Range("E5:K7")
        With WorksheetFunction
            If .CountA(Range("E5:K7")) > 7 And .CountIf(Range("E4:K4"), cel) >= 1 Then cel.ClearContents
        End With
    Next cel
End Sub

Thanks Yongle, works perfect :)

I am looking to take things a step further with what I need the code for, please could you keep an eye on this thread to see if you can help with further posts.

Hi Yongle, just wondering if you could help with this?

I have changed the range in your code from "E5:K7" to "T5:Z7". The values in "T5:Z7" are now equal to the values in "E5:K7" because the values in these cells "E5:K7" have formulas that update values when the cell values in "E4:K4" change and are needed for the process to work.

After applying your code and have the 7 values left, I highlighted them in red. I now want to continue the process but this time, only remove matching values when the 7 remaining cells that are highlighted in red match any value from "E4:K4" but without removing the 7 values highlighted in red and continue until there are only 2 values remaining with the 7 values highlighted in red.

ie

Code:
            For Each cel In Range("T5:Z7")
                With WorksheetFunction
                    If .CountA(Range("T5:Z7")) < 1 Then Range("T5:Z7").Value = Range("E5:K7").Value
                    If .CountA(Range("T5:Z7")) > 7 And .CountIf(Range("E4:K4"), cel) >= 1 Then cel = ""
                End With
            Next cel

Hope that makes sence

I have changed the range in your code from "E5:K7" to "T5:Z7". The values in "T5:Z7" are now equal to the values in "E5:K7" because the values in these cells "E5:K7" have formulas that update values when the cell values in "E4:K4" change and are needed for the process to work.

Had a quick look and cannot grasp what is going on
Perhaps someone else will step in to help you develop this
Good luck :)
