To simplify, I have two sheets in an Excel workbook.
If I write =sheet2!R3C2
in one of the cells of sheet1, the cell takes the value of the cell R3C2 of sheet2 correctly.
I would like to generalize that for many rows in VBA, so my code is:
row = XX a long
temp = "=sheet2!R" & row - 1 & "C2"
Range("c" & row).Value = temp
But when I use this code, the value of the cell(row,3) is =sheet2!'RXXC2'
How can I remove the single quotes ??
Range("C" & row).Formula = temp
would produce the correct formula in your cell.
What you should consider doing instead of looping is
Range("A1").Formula = "=Sheet2!$B1"
Range("A1").Resize(100, 1).Formula = Range("A1").Formula
The first line inserts a formula =Sheet2!$B1
in cell A1 of your active sheet. The $
dollar sign assures that the column will not be incremented (same applies with numbers)
Then the second line duplicates the formula across 100 rows down from A1 replacing the number after the B
column
So now
A1 =Sheet2!B1
A2 =Sheet2!B2
A3 =Sheet2!B3
...
Also, it's a bit unclear what you're trying to actually do so consider another option which is saving the value of formula into another range using the Evaluate()
function
Range("c" & row).Value = Evaluate(temp)
Or Range("C" & Row).Value = [temp]
try to write Range("c" & row).FormulaR1C1=temp
You want to set the formula, not the value:
Range("c"&row).FormulaR1C1 = temp
