Arrays are the sickest and hardest elements 😂❤❤❤ can't wait!!!

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

Great, thanks so much and I am happy to help and share

Once you master Array you"ll need to learn Class for arrays (dynamic classes for arrays) , then Dictionary.

[@SyedMuzammilMahasanShahi]

Thank you so much Randy for this amazing video.

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

For sure, you are very welcome Syed and thanks so much for your continued support

[@ashokanselliah9571]

Thank you very much Randy Sir for the wonderful explanation on the arrays

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

[@Info-God]

Arrays and loops are fundamental for advanced programming.

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

Absolutely, one of my favorites. Thanks so much for sharing

I subscribed and purchased one of your courses. You have a lot to give. You are an example of an individual who loves doing good and helping others. Congratulations on your wonderful soul

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

Thank you so very much, I really appreciate that and I am really glad you enjoy the content and courses.

[@akkintouch]

Thanks Randy as always great content. Possible to explain the filter array in Patreon?

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

Thanks so much. Yes its certainly possible. I checked it out and seemed a bit complicated for one of our Basic VBA tutorials but I will try to get it added into one of the more advanced lessons. Thanks for your continued support over the years.

Thank for you Randy for this excellent Video, I enjoyed learning about arrays,, but I am about to ask a crazy question,,, what font do you use for your vba coding?

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

Hi and thanks for your support. Its a nice question. I was not sure, so I had to look it up. its Arial (Western) Font Size 16. I hope this helps and thanks so much.

In the 2DArray example, why are we able to omit the '()' parenthesis in the 'Dim TwoDArr as Variant' line? I am thinking it has something to do with the data type, 'Variant'.

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

Yes that is correct, as a variant, its a much more flexible variable than the others. Strings, Long or other variables need to be specified. Thank you for your Likes, Shares & Comments. It really helps.

Are you planning to do videos of applications that work with office scripts? There is a real need of using applications for excel for the web and also application that can be run by multiple users at the same time (vba workbooks that are used at the same time by multiple users can give errors), and office scripts is the tool to avoid these inconveniences

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

Hi and thanks. I would love to for sure, however Office Scripts are nowhere near being ready for that. For example worksheet/workbook change events and selection events do not exist in scripts as of yet, so as soon as the power is up to the VBA level I will be creating videos for scripts aw well. I hope this helps and thanks so much.

Excellent run through. I need to have a play with Arrays in VBA ... familiar with them in C/Python so this should be interesting. One question (I'm probably being dim) - in Sub DynamicBoundsArray(), why is the RowNumb = 34? The array is length 30, first (Excel) row 4 and last 33 (so not a +1 because it is zero to ...) why isn't it 33 as this is the final row processed [RowNumb = 4 to 33]?

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

HI and thanks, the item in an array is counted as 0 if its not specified so therefore the rows should always be 1 more than the array value. I hope this helps and thanks so much.

Learning arrays to optimize my VBA code

[@Info-God]

You must be very well organized from very begining to be able to use arrays. That's the trick.

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

Is t it faster to use a For Next loop rather than a For Each loop? 1:09

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

I am not sure if its faster, however I prefer the For Next simply because of the clearly defined data set. I use for Each when I loop through objects such as Shapes, Worksheets or Workbooks. I hope this helps and thanks so much.

[@Info-God]

Dictionaries are another type of arrays. Listarrays is another powerful type of arrays.

Hi sir. I have a problem in excel I have data that was downloaded from a software which is totally web based. In that excel all values are in text format including dates. If I give f2+enter that text will turn to proper date. But the problem is there are a lot of cells like in thousands. I tried converting to CSV. It works sometimes and sometimes it make the date to us format. Like 1/4/24 (1st April) will become 4th jan 24. Is there any VBA code that you can suggest to solve that issue

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

Hi Randy, how are you? Your explanation is superb. No one can explain these topics so easily. Randy, recently I've come across a problem like this. Would you kindly make a video on this topic - "How to split Strings that contain no Delimiter using User Defined Function in Excel VBA?" For Example, - You have some client names on your Sheet1 from Range("A2") to Range("A16"): Raw Data: ======== Names First Names | Middle Names | Last Names ------------ -------------------- ------------------------ -------------------- AlexanderWilliamJamesBrown AmandaTaylor AriaNguyen AubreyFoster AveryAnnPhillips Beerus BenjaminThomasHarris CharlotteMitchell ChristopherJackson DanielJamesMiller DavidAndrewJohnWilliams Dende DylanJamesWard ElijahWatson EllaSophiaRoberts ========== Here, some clients have First Names, Middle Names and Last Names (For Example: Alexander William James Brown etc.); some have First Names and Last Names (For Example: Amanda Taylor etc.) and some have only First Names (For Example: Beerus etc.). Now, I want to delimitate each name based on the Capital Letter. Desired Output mentioned below: Desired Output: ============= Names First Names | Middle Names | Last Names ------------ -------------------- ------------------------ -------------------- AlexanderWilliamJamesBrown Alexander | William James | Brown AmandaTaylor Amanda | | Taylor AriaNguyen Aria | | Nguyen AubreyFoster Aubrey | | Foster AveryAnnPhillips Avery | Ann | Phillips Beerus Beerus BenjaminThomasHarris Benjamin | Thomas | Harris CharlotteMitchell Charlotte | | Mitchell ChristopherJackson Christopher | | Jackson DanielJamesMiller Daniel | James | Miller DavidAndrewJohnWilliams David | Andrew John | Williams Dende Dende DylanJamesWard Dylan | James | Ward ElijahWatson Elijah | | Watson EllaSophiaRoberts Ella | Sophia | Roberts

[@ExcelForFreelancers]

Hi and thanks very much. Yes it should be possible looping through the characters in a string and uusing the Asc code such as Function SplitByCapitalLetters(inputStr As String) As String Dim i As Integer Dim result As String result = Mid(inputStr, 1, 1) ' Start with the first character (always a capital letter) ' Loop through the rest of the characters in the string For i = 2 To Len(inputStr) If Asc(Mid(inputStr, i, 1)) >= 65 And Asc(Mid(inputStr, i, 1))

Look Randy, I've created a Dynamic Spilled Array Formulae that can split any Names that contain any number of Spaces as a Delimiter. Thank you very much for your priceless training. Next, I will try to create splitting Names that contain No Delimiter, splitting strings with Multiple Delimiters, splitting Text and Numbers from AlphaNumeric Characters and last but not the least, splitting the Domain Names from URL. (I've tried my best to align the Data here on KZbin Comment Section. Please don't read this comment on your Mobile Phone as the alignments of text (Raw Data and Output) are not correct on Phone as they are on PC or Laptop.)
