Hi guys,

I have a macro which does exactly what I need it to.


The macro is run and then there is another summary tab whichuses formulas with Named Ranges to calculate values.


There are 3 Named Ranges: (on ZTDA Tracker tab)



Units:K:K


Pickers:I:I


Location:H:H


When I run my macro, the named ranges that I have set up arelost and the formulas that use them end up having Reference errors. Is there a wayto set named ranges to run on specific sheets so that when the macro I run, thenamed ranges are kept and the formulas can still calculate?





I can manually change them but it is far more efficient forthe named ranges to remain.


Code: 
Sub CompleteMacro()

' ZTDA_Sort_X_51 Macr0
'
'
Sheets("ZTDA Tracker").Select
Cells.Select
Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = False
Rows("1:4").Select

    Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft

    Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft

ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$Y$277").AutoFilter Field:=10, Criteria1:="X"

I don't see anywhere that the code is removing the named ranges. As such, the ranges are being deleted during your purge. Looks like what you need to do is clear the ranges and after that pages purge re-set the named ranges.

Hi RCBricker, thanks fpr your reply. I'm afraid I'm an excel newbie... does this mean that I'd need to define my named ranges in VBA for these formulas to work after the macro has been run?

When your macro deletes columns BEFORE the named ranges, ie, cols A:C, and B:H
The named ranges are no longer in their respective columns, as they have moved over to the left.
Try hiding the columns instead !!

Thanks Michael for your suggestion. My macro will be run daily with different data but the columns will be the same. Does this mean I would have to manually hide the columms every day to get the macro to work correctly?

No, you could change the delete lines like this



Code: 
Columns("A:C").Select
    Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft


to
Code: 
Columns("A:C").entirecolumn.hidden=true

Hi Michael, I need the deleted lines to be deleted otherwise other formulas I use do not calculate correctly as they take information from the hidden columns. Is there anyway to set named ranges in VBA so that when the macro runs it takes this into account?

Thanks!

Deleting the rows shouldn't be a problem.....deleting columns will cause you issues

Hi Michael,

Unfortunately I'm not sure there is a work around for deleting the columns. Without it, the formatting of that sheet is horrendous to navigate.
Is there a way to set the Named range in excel vba after having deleted the columns so the named ranges I have created manually after deleting the columns would still function when being run in an automated fashion through vba?
