EXCEL VBA: Format existing numeric cells based on value range



Am trying to run VBA on certain columns (ex: M, N, U, V...) to format the values based on their range.



I currently have:


Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("U:W")) Is Nothing Then
If Target.Value < -1000000 Then
Target.NumberFormat = "#,###.0,, ""M"""
ElseIf Target.Value <= -1000 Then
Target.NumberFormat = "#,###.0, ""K"""
ElseIf Target.Value < 1000 Then
Target.NumberFormat = "### """""
ElseIf Target.Value < 1000000 Then
Target.NumberFormat = "#,###.0, ""K"""
ElseIf Target.Value < 1000000000 Then
Target.NumberFormat = "#,###.0,, ""M"""
ElseIf Target.Value < 1000000000000# Then
Target.NumberFormat = "#,###.0,,, ""B"""

End If
End If
End Sub



Unfortunately, this isn't working on values already entered. However, if I click in each cell and then hit return, if formats correctly.



QUESTION: How would I go about formatting the values that are already there?



Thank you

Looks like the Target is only the range that changed:

Target



You'll probably have to write a sub that will loop through the other data, or just "edit" the cells once and the macro will work going forward.



EDIT:



How about looping through the columns and calling your function?:


Sub OneTimeLoop()
Dim rng as Range, cell as Range

set rng = Range("U:V")

For Each cell in rng
Worksheet_Change cell
Next cell
End Sub





Is there a way that would put a 'hard return' in each cell so the current macro would run? Or, a better way for it to work? I have many values in the sheet.

@ETedford I added a sub that would call your function for each cell in the column. Warning it will take a long time to run, so you'll want to just run it once and maybe limit the range more. i.e. Range("U1:V1000")

Range("U1:V1000")



I think, you need Precedents property, which will retrieve all cells a current cell is dependent upon.


Precedents



Say, you have:



Then the following code will show $A$1:


$A$1


Sub F()
MsgBox Range("A2").Precedents(1).Address
End Sub
