Question
Current coding is:
For y = 3 To 1000
If Sheets("Gas Pending").Cells(y, 1) = "" Then Sheets("Gas Pending").Cells(y, 18) = "" _
Else Sheets("Gas Pending").Cells(y, 18).FormulaR1C1 = "=TODAY()-RC[-10]"
Next y
Range("R3:R1000").Copy
Range("R3").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
I would like to not have to paste special and instead just input the value of the R1C1 formula.
Answer
Ryan,
For y = 3 To 1000
If Sheets("Gas Pending").Cells(y, 1) = "" Then
Sheets("Gas Pending").Cells(y, 18) = ""
Else
v = Date - Sheets("Gas Pending").Cells(y,8).Value
Sheets("Gas Pending").Cells(y, 18).Value = v
End if
Next y

Expertise
Worked with the program for many years - provided assistance on MS Excel Newsgroups since 1997. Have received the Microsoft MVP award annually since 1999. I don't answer questions on using Excel in a browser Since I have no way to test this. Prefer not to answer charting questions. I consider myself to be particularly knowledgeable about using VBA internal to Excel but have no problems with formulas and pivot tables either.
