Macro to copy formula to all rows that contain data in columns A:C

    Macro to copy formula to all rows that contain data in columns A:C

    I tried posting this over in a VBScripting group and they suggesting
    coming here, instead. Some additional background:

    I found the original macro posted by Tom Olgilvy, but it was posting a
    simple sum formula. Substituting the more complex array formula below
    broke the function. I was able to get the function to paste, but not
    operate as an array formula. Any help would be much appreciated.

    The original post:
    I'm trying to make a command button on an Excel sheet that will add a
    function to column D whenever there is data in columns A:C. So far, I
    have the following:

    Dim rng As Range
    With Worksheets("Shop Log")
    Set rng = .Range(.Cells(1, 3), .Cells(Rows.Count, 3).End(xlUp))
    End With
    rng.Offset(0, 1).Formula =
    "{=MID(C2,MATCH(FALSE,ISERROR(1*MID(C2,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(C2))),1)),0),LEN(C2)-SUM(1*ISERROR(1*MID(C2,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(C2))),1))))*1}"
    End Sub

    The double quote in the INDIRECT functions causes a compile error,
    Expected: end of statement. I assume this is because of the leading
    quote after "Formula =", but I don't know how to fix this. Any help
    would be much appreciated.

    Hi Jason,

    Apparently the rule is to double up the internal quotes, so for each of
    the INDIRECTS change to ""1:"". That got rid of the "Expected end of
    statement error".

    Also, I think you don't include the "{" and "}" in the formula, I think
    you use
    "FormulaArray = "=MID(etc" instead of Formula = "{=Mid(etc"
