How to use iteration 14/6
Session Links
  • Iteration is a repeat form
  • Many varieties of iteration in VBA; we use a simple one:
For <var> = <min> To <max>
    <sequence-of-statements>
Next <var>
  • Iteration can be nested; that’s how we handle two-dimensional arrays
For <varx> = <minx> To <maxx>
    For <vary> = <miny> To <maxy>
        <sequence-of-statements>
    Next <vary>
Next <varx>
  • You must include variable declarations for iteration variables

The top example gives a simple template for one of VBA’s iteration constructs. There are several more types of iteration, but this one is the most relevant to our work. “<Var>” stands for a variable name. Many people usually use “i”, “j”, etc., but you can use whatever you like. <var> starts at the value <min>. For each cycle through the iteration, VBA adds +1 to the iteration variable, until it reaches <max>. It performs the calculation for <max> and then the loop exits.

How to Measure the Value of a Function Macro

The value of a function macro increases with frequency of use, the complexity of the calculation it performs, and the area of the result it returns. As you examine the computations you perform routinely in your work, make note of those computations that meet these criteria. Before committing yourself to writing a macro to carry out one those computations, try various methods for implementing it using standard built-in worksheet functions. That effort might clarify for you the kernel of the computation that benefits most from a macro-based approach.
