Hi,

I am trying to check to see if two cells in Sheets("CHECKING") or (ws2), correspond with values in Sheets("Category Hierarchy (5)") or ws3. In row 1 of ws3 there are "Departments" and below that department from row 2 onwards are categories and these categories are unique values to only one department.

The value in Cell.offset(0,-2) is the category and the value in cell.offset(0,-3) is the department. We need to make sure that the category in ws2 in the column of the matched department in ws3. i.e. make sure there is not a mismatched category to a department.

The following code works fine but it takes a long time to loop through all the cells in rng1.

Is there a quicker way to increase speed? See below for code and samples of data from both ws.
Code: 
Sub test()


Dim rng, catrng As Range
Dim ws As Worksheet


Set ws2 = Sheets("CHECKING")
    Set rng1 = Range(ws2.Cells(1, 6), ws2.Cells(1, 6).End(xlDown))
    
    For Each cell In rng1
    Set ws3 = Sheets("CATEGORY HIERARCHY (" & cell.Offset(0, -1).Value & ")")
        If Not cell.Offset(0, 2) = 0 Or IsError(Application.Match(cell.Offset(0, -3).Value, ws3.Rows("1:1"), 0)) Then
            ws2.Cells(i, 8) = "0"
        Else
            x = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(cell.Offset(0, -3), ws3.Rows("1:1"))
            Set catrng = Range(ws3.Cells(2, x), ws3.Cells(1000, x))
            If IsError(Application.VLookup(cell.Offset(0, -2), catrng, 1, False)) Then
                cell.Offset(0, 4) = "1"
            Else
                cell.Offset(0, 4) = "0"
            End If
        End If
    Next cell


End Sub


Here is some sample data from ws2:

Excel Facts

Add Bullets to Range

Have you worked with arrays in VBA yet?

If not, that is what you should start researching.

Since excel 2007 and beyond, cycling through cells in a range has been extremely slow, so the best practice is to load a range of cells to an array, all at once. Do whatever work needs to be done within excel's memory without touching cells on a sheet. Then finally load back to the sheet the output all at once.

Below is a simple demo of how that might work.

Code: 
Sub arrExample()
'load array in and spit array out


arr = Range("a1:b3") 'load range into 2d array 'arr becomes a 2 dimensional array loaded with the range's values


'processing the range could happen here



Range("c4:d6") = arr  'export the 2d array back to a different range






End Sub

Hi Odin,

I am completely self taught in VBA and I have been googling and looking at videos on how to accomplish this but it is all going a bit over my head.

Would you mind giving me some more detail in your answer and using the formulas I have above.

I would be very appreciative if you could.

Thanks

How about
Code: 
Sub bayles()
   Dim CatAry As Variant
   Dim Dic As Object
   Dim r As Long, c As Long
   Dim Cl As Range
   
   Application.ScreenUpdating = False
   
   CatAry = Sheets("Category Hierarchy (5)").Range("A1").CurrentRegion.Value2
   Set Dic = CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
   
   For c = 2 To UBound(CatAry, 2)
      Dic.Add CatAry(1, c), CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
      For r = 2 To UBound(CatAry)
         Dic(CatAry(1, c))(CatAry(r, c)) = Empty
      Next r
   Next c
   
   With Sheets("Checking")
      For Each Cl In .Range("C2", .Range("C" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
         If Not Dic.Exists(Cl.Value) Then
            Cl.Offset(, 7).Value = 1
         ElseIf Not Dic(Cl.Value).Exists(Cl.Offset(, 1).Value) Then
            Cl.Offset(, 7).Value = 1
         Else
            Cl.Offset(, 7).Value = 0
         End If
      Next Cl
   End With
End Sub

Thanks so much Fluff.

That was great. I'll try to learn from this code as to how to implement arrays. I can usually fluke my way through it eventually.

Cheers
