I'm trying to create a formula in the A1 cell which contains an ampersand character that looks something like this in Excel: ="Hello, "&A2 My VBA code is as follows: Worksheets("Sheet1").Ran...
8. & is the way to represent an ampersand in most sections of an XML document. If you want to have XML displayed within HTML, you need to first create properly encoded XML (which involves changing & to &) and then use that to create properly encoded HTML (which involves again changing & to &).
Returning an empty or zero-length string (e.g. "") to make a cell appear blank is a common practise in a worksheet formula but recreating that option when inserting the formula through the Range.Formula or Range.FormulaR1C1 property in VBA is unwieldy due to the necessity of having to double-up the double-quote characters within a quoted string.
Sorted by: 12. The ampersand is the Concatenation operator in the Visual Basic based languages, like VBA, in your case you are taking the string "B1:U" and concatenating the value of the variable y to the end of the string. Since y is defined as an Integer, VBA will first convert the value of y to a string and then perform the concatenation.
A single & is used for keyboard shortcuts, and a double ampersand will escape that. The article Escape ampersand (&) character in C# mentions that you can leave the caption unaltered with single & and just set UseMnemonic property of the button to false. "Gets or sets a value indicating whether the control interprets an ampersand character ...
If you think of them as pointers, you'll be using * to get at the values inside of them as explained above, but there is also another, more common way using the [] operator: int a[2]; // array of integers. int i = *a; // the value of the first element of a. int i2 = a[0]; // another way to get the first element.
What the application does is copy the information inside an Excel xlsm file and paste it in an XML file for further processing. The thing is, it all goes very smooth until I hit an ampersand in one of the Excel cells, i.e.: I have a cell which has "R&D" and when I'm passing it to the XML file I get the following error:
Well on the other hand some thinks It serves no useful purpose at all to add the type declaration suffix in the code when it was not declared with the suffix. Surely that does nothing but obfuscate the code. The $ at the end is a way of declaring the variable As String. The & at the end is a way of declaring the variable As Long.
So, you can first reference the cell value based on which you would to select range for sum. Let's assume Range ("A1") has the value till where you would like to sum. Use the below code and adjust accordingly. i = Range("A1").value 'put here the cell you would like to reference. Let me know if you need any further clarification.
The ampersand character (&) and the left angle bracket (<) MUST NOT appear in their literal form, except when used as markup delimiters, or within a comment, a processing instruction, or a CDATA section. If they are needed elsewhere, they MUST be escaped using either numeric character references or the strings " & " and " < " respectively.
