列中子串的最大值

Max of substring in column

鉴于我有一列格式的值

01.2020
12.2021
3.2019
02.2020
etc.

超过一百万行左右,我想要一个 VBA 函数来查找句点左侧数字的最大值。

类似

Option Explicit

Sub test()
    Dim r As Range, c As Range
    Dim max As Long, current As Long
    Dim s As String
    
    With År_2020
        Set r = .Range(.Range("D2"), .Range("D" & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
    End With
    
    For Each c In r
        current = CLng(Left(c, InStr(1, c, ".", vbBinaryCompare) - 1))
        If current > max Then max = current
    Next c
    
    Debug.Print max
End Sub

可行,但我觉得应该有一个更简单的解决方案。

有人可以就是否可以找到更简单的解决方案提供一些意见吗?

公式解

  • B1 中的公式:=VALUE(LEFT(A1,FIND(".",A1)-1))
  • 在 C1 中:=MAX(B:B)

VBA解决方案

Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")

Dim LastRow As Long 'find last used row
LastRow = ws.Cells(ws.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row

Dim ValuesToConvert() As Variant 'read data into array
ValuesToConvert = ws.Range("A1", "A" & LastRow).Value 'will throw an error if there is only data in A1 but no data below, make sure to cover that case

Dim iVal As Variant
For iVal = LBound(ValuesToConvert) To UBound(ValuesToConvert)
    'truncate after period (might need some error tests if period does not exist or cell is empty)
    ValuesToConvert(iVal, 1) = CLng(Left(ValuesToConvert(iVal, 1), InStr(1, ValuesToConvert(iVal, 1), ".") - 1))
Next iVal

'get maximum of array values
Debug.Print Application.WorksheetFunction.Max(ValuesToConvert)

我总是喜欢提出一个幼稚的解决方案。从表面上看,您可以这样做:

=TRUNC(MAX(--D:D))

(截断到最后,因为小数点后的部分不影响结果)

如下所述,这仅适用于使用小数点(句点)而非小数逗号的区域设置。

似乎有效。而且很短。

Sub test()
    Dim max As Long
    max = [MAX(TRUNC(D:D))]
    Debug.Print max
End Sub
