Question

Hi I want to insert formula into a cell by determining variables for each value.

Eg.

=G5/D5

So in cell

Sheets("Sheet1").cells(LastRow + 2, 2).value = "=columnletter1 + (lastrow + 2)/columnletter2 + (lastrow + 2)

I find the columnletter is G by determining if the column name is X and the row is LastRow + 2.
How do I write so that I get “=G5/D5” returned into the cell?

Answer 1

Not sure if I understand your requirements exactly, I think you mean:

columnletter1 is a string, = G
columnletter2 is a string, = D
lastrow is a long, = 3

To set a formula, construct a string and write to the .Formula property

    Sheets("Sheet1").cells(LastRow + 2, 2).Formula = _
    "=" & columnletter1 & lastrow + 2 & "/" & columnletter2 & lastrow + 2
