OneNote Tips John Goldsmith's visLog: Looping through Following on from my previous post, in which I covered some ShapeSheet and VBA basics, today I'm going to look at some simple looping programming methods that do something a little more practical. There are many situations where you'll need to run through all of the shapes on a page to carry out an operation. This might be in order to check each shape to see if it meets a particular criteria, (for example, only shapes based on a particular master) or perhaps to change a value in every single shape (maybe to change a base URL)... To help achieve this, VBA gives you a number of 'flow control' structures that enable you to carry out an iterative process. So, let's look at a few examples and see how they work in practice: Changing the line of every shape on a pageDeleting shapes based on a particular masterShuffling shapes off pageRunning through all files in a folderResetting master inheritance Another method is to use an index rather than an item.

Perhaps the number one rule with arrays is, only use them when needed and know when to use them. I have even seen "so called" experienced users recommending them to other Excel users looking for help on a simple formula. It is fair to say that even my examples below are really an incorrect use of array formulas, but in the interest of keeping things simple I have used them. Array Formula Rules: Before we show some examples of array formulas it is important to know 4 fundamental rules. Pet Shop Example: Special!

This type of software was of limited use to the author because it was hard to come up with a precise search term that would deliver the results he was looking for.
