Excel VBA - column SUM

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

I have an excel spreadsheet with multiple columns. All I want to do is sum each column and put the result in the row after the last row. It sounds simple enough; however, the formulas do not show.

What I have tried:

Here is my code . Any help would be appreciated. I'm pulling my hair out here. 


       For c = 2 To 6 Step 1
          ColumnLetter = Split(Cells(1, c).Address, "$")(1)
          strFormula = "=SUM(" & ColumnLetter & "2:" & ColumnLetter & (lastrow - 1) & ")"
          Cells(c, lastrow).Formula = strFormula
       Next

I have also tried Cells(c,lastrow).Value = strFormula with no success

What do you actually get in each column?

Thanks for responding, I figured it out. It was a stupid error.

Have you defined lastrow correctly?

Solution 2

Try this:

VB

lastrow = ' set this to the row that will contain the formulas
For c = 2 To 6 Step 1
   ColumnLetter = Split(Cells(1, c).Address, "$")(1)
   strFormula = "=SUM(" & ColumnLetter & "2:" & ColumnLetter & (lastrow - 1) & ")"
   Cells(lastrow, c).Formula = strFormula
Next

Solution 1

Figured it out. I had the Column before the row in the Cells command.
