WorksheetFunction object (Excel)

  • Article

Used as a container for Microsoft Excel worksheet functions that can be called from Visual Basic.

Example

Use the WorksheetFunction property of the Application object to return the WorksheetFunction object.

The following example displays the result of applying the Min worksheet function to the range A1:C10.

Set myRange = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1:C10") 
answer = Application.WorksheetFunction.Min(myRange) 
MsgBox answer

This example uses the CountA worksheet function to determine how many cells in column A contain a value. For this example, the values in column A should be text. This example does a spell check on each value in column A, and if the value is spelled incorrectly, inserts the text "Wrong" into column B; otherwise, it inserts the text "OK" into column B.

Sub StartSpelling()
   'Set up your variables
   Dim iRow As Integer
   
   'And define your error handling routine.
   On Error GoTo ERRORHANDLER
   
   'Go through all the cells in column A, and perform a spellcheck on the value.
   'If the value is spelled incorrectly, write "Wrong" in column B; otherwise, write "OK".
   For iRow = 1 To WorksheetFunction.CountA(Columns(1))
      If Application.CheckSpelling( _
         Cells(iRow, 1).Value, , True) = False Then
         Cells(iRow, 2).Value = "Wrong"
      Else
         Cells(iRow, 2).Value = "OK"
      End If
   Next iRow
   Exit Sub

    'Error handling routine.
ERRORHANDLER:
    MsgBox "The spell check feature is not installed!"
    
End Sub
