I’m trying to convert text to columns using a macro but I’m not able

  • 0

I’m trying to convert text to columns using a macro but I’m not able to do it, I have tried to record a macro to achieve this, however I’m running into some issues since the text to columns VBA function expects a selection, is there a way I can dinamically chose let’s say range A7:A50000? or even better A7:lastnonempty cell?

Thanks,

FYI, the delimeter is not important since I need to do this to convert text into formula

Here is my code

Range("O6").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.TextToColumns Destination:=Range("O6"), DataType:=xlDelimited, _
    TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, Tab:=True, _
    Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, Other:=False, FieldInfo _
    :=Array(1, 1), TrailingMinusNumbers:=True

    Try this

    Sub Txt2Col()
        Dim rng As Range
    
        Set rng = [C7]
        Set rng = Range(rng, Cells(Rows.Count, rng.Column).End(xlUp))
    
        rng.TextToColumns Destination:=rng, DataType:=xlDelimited, ' rest of your settings
    

    Update: button click event to act on another sheet

    Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
        Dim rng As Range
        Dim sh As Worksheet
    
        Set sh = Worksheets("Sheet2")
        With sh
            Set rng = .[C7]
            Set rng = .Range(rng, .Cells(.Rows.Count, rng.Column).End(xlUp))
    
            rng.TextToColumns Destination:=rng, DataType:=xlDelimited, _
            TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote,  _
            ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, _
            Tab:=False, _
            Semicolon:=False, _
            Comma:=True, 
            Space:=False, 
            Other:=False, _
            FieldInfo:=Array(Array(1, xlGeneralFormat), Array(2, xlGeneralFormat), Array(3, xlGeneralFormat)), _
            TrailingMinusNumbers:=True
        End With
    End Sub
    

    Note the .‘s (eg .Range) they refer to the With statement object
