Hi all I am trying to do a few things here with VBA:

Here's the source Worksheet named MoCMatrix

Cell Formulas
RangeFormula
C1:W1C1=C2&"-"&C3


I'm trying to distribute the range C4:W63 into a series of other worksheets based on three criteria:
Criteria 1 is the Function Codes in range A4:A63
Criteria 2 is the Tests in range C2:W2
Criteria 3 is the value in the range C3:W3

I have combined Criteria 2 and 3 into a helper row in C1:W1

The recipient worksheets are all in this format. In this instance, I have manually filled the range F2:H8 with Array Formulas to show you what I'm after.

Press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to enter array formulas.


I'm trying to automate the distribution of these array formulas using VBA. The Array Formula works when entered manually, I'm trying to translate that to VBA, but I'm struggling with the VBA syntax and getting an "Unable to set the FormulaArray property of the Range class". Here's my code so far (Forgive me for the syntax, I'm sure there are a few things wrong with the following):

VBA Code: 
Sub No6_Import_and_Fill_MoC()
'
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
'
Dim TWB As Workbook
'
Dim WS As Worksheet
'
Dim T, U As Integer
Dim TRwCnt, URwCnt As Integer
Dim T_Test As Integer
'
Dim RNG_MatchFunc As Range
Dim RNG_MatchTest As Range
Dim RNG_Return As Range
'
Dim STR_MoC As String
'
T_Test = 7 '{"Structural Integrity", "Flammability & Smoke", "Handling & Abuse", "Environmental Conditions", "Endurance", "Vibration", "USPHS"}
'
Set TWB = ThisWorkbook
'
STR_MoC = "MoCMatrix"
'
Set RNG_MatchFunc = TWB.Worksheets(STR_MoC).Range("A4:A63")
Set RNG_MatchTest = TWB.Worksheets(STR_MoC).Range("C1:W1")
Set RNG_Return = TWB.Worksheets(STR_MoC).Range("C4:W63")
'
For Each WS In TWB.Worksheets
        With TWB.Worksheets(WS.Name)
            If WS.Name Like "FB*" Then
                .Activate
                TRwCnt = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "E").End(xlUp).Row
                    For T = TRwCnt To 2 Step -1
                        If .Range("A" & T & "") Like "?.?*" Then
                            .Range("F" & T & "").FormulaArray = "=INDEX(" & RNG_Return.Address(External:=True) & ",MATCH($A & T," & RNG_MatchFunc.Address(External:=True) & ",0),MATCH($E & T & ""-"" & $F$1," & RNG_MatchTest.Address(External:=True) & ",0))"
                            .Range("F" & T & "").AutoFill Range("F" & T & ":F" & T + T_Test - 1 & "")
                            .Range("G" & T & "").FormulaArray = "=INDEX(" & RNG_Return.Address(External:=True) & ",MATCH($A & T," & RNG_MatchFunc.Address(External:=True) & ",0),MATCH($E & T & ""-"" & $G$1," & RNG_MatchTest.Address(External:=True) & ",0))"
                            .Range("G" & T & "").AutoFill Range("G" & T & ":G" & T + T_Test - 1 & "")
                            .Range("H" & T & "").FormulaArray = "=INDEX(" & RNG_Return.Address(External:=True) & ",MATCH($A & T," & RNG_MatchFunc.Address(External:=True) & ",0),MATCH($E & T & ""-"" & $H$1," & RNG_MatchTest.Address(External:=True) & ",0))"
                            .Range("H" & T & "").AutoFill Range("H" & T & ":H" & T + T_Test - 1 & "")
                        End If
                    Next T
            End If
        End With
Next WS
'
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
'
End Sub

Thank you in advance for your help.
 

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
Sort by date Sort by votes
I'm also open to any other solution that do not involve the use of array formulas to distribute that data :)

Well, I have sussed it out in the end.

I'm sure it's not the most elegant/efficient way of doing it, but it does the job perfectly:

VBA Code: 
Sub No6_Import_and_Fill_MoC()
'
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
'
Dim TWB As Workbook
'
Dim WS As Worksheet
'
Dim T As Integer
Dim TRwCnt As Integer
Dim T_Test As Integer
'
Dim STR_MoC As String
'
T_Test = 7 '{"Structural Integrity", "Flammability & Smoke", "Handling & Abuse", "Environmental Conditions", "Endurance", "Vibration", "USPHS"}
'
Set TWB = ThisWorkbook
'
STR_MoC = "MoCMatrix"
'
For Each WS In TWB.Worksheets
        With TWB.Worksheets(WS.Name)
            If WS.Name Like "FB*" Then
                .Activate
                TRwCnt = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "E").End(xlUp).Row
                    For T = TRwCnt To 2 Step -1
                        If .Range("A" & T & "") Like "?.?*" Then
                            .Range("F" & T & "").Formula = "=INDEX('" & Worksheets(STR_MoC).Name & "'!$C$4:$W$63,MATCH($A$" & T & "&"""",'" & Worksheets(STR_MoC).Name & "'!$A$4:$A$63,0),MATCH($E2 & ""-"" & F$1,'" & Worksheets(STR_MoC).Name & "'!$C$1:$W$1,0))"
                            .Range("F" & T & "").AutoFill Range("F" & T & ":F" & T + T_Test - 1 & "")
                            .Range("G" & T & "").Formula = "=INDEX('" & Worksheets(STR_MoC).Name & "'!$C$4:$W$63,MATCH($A$" & T & "&"""",'" & Worksheets(STR_MoC).Name & "'!$A$4:$A$63,0),MATCH($E2 & ""-"" & G$1,'" & Worksheets(STR_MoC).Name & "'!$C$1:$W$1,0))"
                            .Range("G" & T & "").AutoFill Range("G" & T & ":G" & T + T_Test - 1 & "")
                            .Range("H" & T & "").Formula = "=INDEX('" & Worksheets(STR_MoC).Name & "'!$C$4:$W$63,MATCH($A$" & T & "&"""",'" & Worksheets(STR_MoC).Name & "'!$A$4:$A$63,0),MATCH($E2 & ""-"" & H$1,'" & Worksheets(STR_MoC).Name & "'!$C$1:$W$1,0))"
                            .Range("H" & T & "").AutoFill Range("H" & T & ":H" & T + T_Test - 1 & "")
                        End If
                    Next T
                .Range("F2:H" & TRwCnt).Value2 = .Range("F2:H" & TRwCnt).Value2
            End If
        End With
Next WS
