TRIM function/remove spaces from cells using VBA
You'll get much better performance copying the data into an array, and working on the array, then placing the data back into the range.
Also, don't use Excel.Application.Trim
. That's Excel 95 syntax, and a late-bound call with unexpected error handling. VBA has a Trim
function built-in - it's about 10 times faster and it provides Intellisense.
Sub test()
'Assuming ScenarioTable is a range
Dim ScenarioTable As Range
Set ScenarioTable = Range("ScenarioTable")
'I assume your range might have some formulas, so...
'Get the formulas into an array
Dim v As Variant
v = ScenarioTable.Formula
Dim a As Long
Dim f As Long
'Then loop over the array
For a = LBound(v, 1) To UBound(v, 1)
For f = LBound(v, 2) To UBound(v, 2)
If Not IsEmpty(v(a, f)) Then
v(a, f) = VBA.Trim(v(a, f))
End If
Next f
Next a
'Insert the results
ScenarioTable.Formula = v
End Sub
Do it on the whole range at once using the array version of Excel's Trim
:
myRange.Value = Application.Trim(myRange.Value)
Using the only variables visible in your code, it would be:
With Range(Cells(1,1), Cells(ScenarioTableLastRow, ScenarioTableLastColumn))
.Value = Application.Trim(.Value)
End With
