About LinkBacksI have a workbook where our specialists enter their activities by
alphanumeric code. (Some codes alpha, some numeric, none mixed). Each
specialist has 2 sheets in the workbook. One in which they report their
work, another that tallies the work by code and month and creates a
graph for them and others to look for trends, etc. The macro I've
written, with this NG's help, is run when a specialist's monthy tally
sheet is selected. The macro goes to the entry, or source, sheet, and
checks each cell in the specified range for certain codes. If it finds
an appropriate code, it checks another cell to see if it has a
recognizable date. If these criteria are met, it tallies the number of
times a giving code occurs in each month of the year. If the criteria
are not met, it skips to the next cell. One of the codes, 16, has
tallied subcodes as well (A, R, B, G). It all works fine.
I've been writing VBA macros for about 8 months now, and my progress
has been slow. I want to get better at this.
What I'm interested in is how to streamline the code, if possible. How
would someone do the same thing with less code? Speed is not important
in this application, no specialist has more than a 1000 entries. But
what if it were? How would you make this run even faster?
I'm particularly interested in better ways to do the subcodes. I've
marked this part of the macro.
I'd also appreciate feedback on formatting and comments. Any way to
make it easier to come back later and debug or change the code.
Thanks for any feedback.
