How to make your Excel VBA code run 1000 times faster

[@wmcnabb]

Paul, you are on fire of late! Some EXTREMELY useful techniques explained very well. I have always been able to tell the level of a developer by what stage they are at in these types of examples. I will be recommending this video to lots of people.

[@Excelmacromastery]

Hi Wyatt, That's actually a great point you make. It's like the evolution of a VBA developer. The begin using Select and activate and evolve through each stage from there.

that pretty funny, i'm learning vba for the last 3 month, and this is precisely the steps i was taking it. Although i've stopped at the array level, i know that i'm miles away, too crude in the knowledge about the rest. This advanced filter, to me , looks like that i have found a treasure chest hidden somewhere.

[@spamdump4459]

Saw this video and the next day reworked some macros I wrote for work. Previously if there were more than 20 files you might as well wander down the hall, pour a cup of coffee and when you got back it would be finishing, maybe. In less than a hour of recoding I had it down to 9 seconds! Today I got it under 2 seconds for 70 files.

Brilliant, well explained. I've not used vba for years and I was helping someone out with something urgent for their work. I got what they needed sorted out but my process was running so slow. They are giving a demonstration today but it's been annoying me that it's taking around 2.30mins to run through about a thousand records. Now I see its because I am making all these select cut paste onto different worksheets. I will use some of the techniques you so brilliantly explained. So I had to subscribe. Thanks again.

Hello Paul, you write data from an array to cells cell-for-cell. This is the slowest way! Use the same way like reading data, the whole range. You do not need a loop. (11:25)

[@meiwong5615]

Best VBA tutorials I’ve seen so far!

[@Excelmacromastery]

Thanks for your comment Mei

[@georhodiumgeo9827]

I have never tried to put the data in an array and then process it. Very clever. People should also know how much faster Excel 2010 was at running VBA code than 13,16 or 365. If you haven’t upgraded stay away. And if you have a lot of code use a VBA decompiler from time to time. Errors will build up in the P-code and you can clear them out. I don’t know why but it can also speed the macros up. Because magic but I swear it’s true. Great video this should be a “watch first” for learning VBA!

[@menecany6444]

and what about excel 2021?

[@IanLockley]

Paul, you've blown me away! I'll be using these techniques to vastly improve the speed of my current Excel projects. Some of my projects take 10 to 15 minutes. This is bonkers! I've been writing the most inefficient code possible.

[@Excelmacromastery]

Thanks Ian. Don't worry we've all been there. The Copy and Paste method is so common place in VBA web examples that when I discovered assign I was sure it couldn't possibly be better than Copy and Paste.

[@jeffchen6556]

[@leowanner1228]

Great explanation and demonstration of how much of an impact different coding will have on the efficiency in getting the processed results. I am new to VBA coding and I am making my first attempt at writing script for an Excel project. I am attempting to write VBA code to accomplish the task of transferring data from 7 individual Excel Workbooks to combine into 1 Main Excel Workbook file. I only need to transfer 3 columns of data from each of the 7 individual workbooks as follows: From: Team A Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: D, K and T. To: Main Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: D, K and T. From: Team B Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: E, L and U. To: Main Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: E, L and U. From: Team C Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: F, M and V. To: Main Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: F, M and V. From: Team D Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: G, N and W. To: Main Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: G, N and W. From: Team E Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: H, O and X. To: Main Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: H, O and X. From: Team F Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: I, P and Y. To: Main Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: I, P and Y. From: Team G Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: J, Q and Z. To: Main Excel Workbook, Sheet 1, Columns: J, Q and Z. What is the best way to apply the same code efficiency that you demonstrated in this video to this kind of task?

Hi, I have two questions: 1) I have an Excel simulation where I have 15'000 clients and want to run 10'000 scenario. At the end I'll produce four matrices (15'000 times 10'000 times 4). It takes about 36 minutes for 1000 scenarios and I already worked with arrays (as good as I could with my limited knowledge). Do you think it is possible to store up to 0.6 billion data records in Excel or do you have a tip what to do because Excel almost breaks down ;-). Should I "outsource" data into CSV-spreadsheets instead? 2) Do you know a good random number generator in VBA. I tried to use the "built in" random number generator but somehow it didn't work with my array code.

Instead of setting calculation to automatic at the end, it’s best practice to capture the current calc mode at the beginning. And set it back to that at the end. Manual calc may have already been set in Excel, a macro that turns it back on can be an annoyance.

[@aguswidi9316]

Agree with brendan

[@ZEUSAIMIGHTY]

Wow, I literally ran my VBA exactly how you said beginners do but that's only because that's how the record macro feature told me to. Very helpful!

How would you make an array from multiple tables in the same sheet to store values? context: lets say you want to save some kind of profiles that you can switch / load any other time, like having a table with check-boxes, some checked and some unchecked, and you want to save it to be available to load another time

[@MarkCBB86]

Probably one of the best VBA help videos I have seen, You explained each part very clearly without over speaking, Thank you. Things I learned from the video (MicroTimer, Resize, populating an Array straight from a range). I use assignment often, but looking forward to using it with Resize now. Favorite part of the Video is jumping to just using Advanced Filter - Sometimes we over code for things that there is already a built-in function for. Thanks again!!!

[@Excelmacromastery]

Thanks Mark. That is high praise indeed. I'm glad you got so much from the video.

[@albertbatfinder5240]

Really good. VBA code has an astonishing ability to yield to all sorts of improvements if you just nudge it a bit. But you gotta know where to look. One thing I will say is that you might do yourself a disservice by removing all the scaffolding, which is what you’ve done with the last step. I guarantee 100% that in a job like this, at some point you are going to want to do something a bit special with the records found. Three days after removing the loop, you’re gonna be putting it back in. The loop is the scaffolding. Don’t chuck it out lightly, or it’s Step 1: Optimise. Step 2: Deoptimise.

[@Excelmacromastery]

Thanks Albert. Glad you like it. It always depends on the requirements. Some situations the loop is better and for some the Advanced Filter.

[@catones2868]

Hi, I'm a novice excel macro user and I find this very interesting. HOWEVER, I'm stumbling into problems trying to apply your technique which I think is very useful in learning how to optimize use of macros thru VBA. My question surrounds the microtimer formula you applied to test the speed of the macro. I want to do something similar for a macro I am working on where I format a query dump which 1) adds standard header and footer data; 2) renames certain column headers from ugly program field names to field names that are in english (e.g. instead of a field named ''wk_tm_dt" rename it to "date", etc. etc); 3) removes irrelevant columns with no meaningful data, 4) formats the date column to be read as the "day of the week", mm/dd/yyyy", & 5) formats number columns to x,xxx.xx format. The macro takes a significant amount of time and I see opportunites to speed up the macro based on your interesting points noted. For learning purposes, I want to replicate what you've done in order to measure the speed improvement. For my macro code, I added the start time at the beginning of my macro as how you wrote it (Dim dTime As Double *space* dTime = MicroTimer) & at the end of my macro code (Dbug.Print "Time is" & (MicroTimer - dTime) * 1000. However when I run my query, in VBA, it indicates "Time is= 0" What did I do incorrectly and how do I get my macro to show the time it took to run my macro like how you did? My macro takes around 10 seconds and I want to get that time down. Thanks for sharing the possibilities. All these years and all these wasted hours I could have saved had I learned your mode of thinking sooner.

[@andrewlockwood6102]

@@Excelmacromastery Only caveat is that whilst developing code, if it crashes and doesn't get to turn screen updating back on, you can find yourself stuck and potentially have to kill the program and lose any unsaved code. Sometimes it's prudent to only include the on/off code after you have solidified your code. My 2 cents worth. :-)

[@thatguythatdoesstuff7448]

@@andrewlockwood6102 In this case, you can create a macro in your personal.xlsb that turns all of it back on. You then designate that macro as a custom button in your quick access toolbar. Something goes wrong, runtime error or whatever, click the button, everything is turned back on.

Hi Paul, in this example, what if we were pasting on the same cells just to remove the formulas and replace the formulas with values.

[@ph5i5]

Great video. Even if intuitively, in the given scenario, filtering is THE WAY to go. if you faced this problem without knowing how to use VBA, you'd wanna use a filter (simple or advanced - up to the user), so why would you want VBA to do it the hard way and loop through every row? This is not a question to you, Paul, but to anyone who would want to code this type of scenario in any way other than: 1. simple filter, 2. advanced filter or 3. array (yes, i know this involves looping, but looping through arrays is WAY FASTER than cells). Still, i can believe there are people out there who would loop through cells, and i also agree, that there is a lot of unnecessary usage of 'Activate' and 'Select'. So thanks once again for explaining this very important topic in a concise and easy to follow video. I'm not a VBA expert by any stretch of imagination, but i have been using it for a while, and have seen many websites/tutorials/videos and i have to say, yours are definitely among the best :)

A note on Paul's final comment about sampling these methods on a small set of data first: Some of these methods will only give you gains as you scale up. For example, in a table with 1800 rows, adding the TurnOffStuff and TurnOnStuff functions added 15ms to my run time. Results from a very small sample size *may not be indicative* of performance effects at a larger scale.
