Multiple like statements?

[tmuldoon]

Hello,

Is it possible to use more than one LIKE statment in an Excel Macro?

Here is what I have:

WHERE CAR.FAC_NO = HEAD.FAC_NO AND ((BALANCE.COMP='NIL') AND
(BALANCE.YEAR=2005) AND (BALANCE.PER_NO=99) AND (BALANCE.ACCOUNT Like
'5%') AND (HEAD.AREA like '333%'))

Which works...

But, I want to add more LIKE statments.

i.e. ....AND (HEAD.AREA like '666%') AND (HEAD.AREA like '999%'))

How ever I get errored out.

The LIKE statements grabs groups of number with a common beginning
three digits. But it seems I can only do it for only one set, number
multiple numbers.

Any suggestions?

Hi T,

Sub TestIt()

If CAR.FAC_NO = HEAD.FAC_NO Then
If BALANCE.COMP = "NIL" Then
If BALANCE.Year = 2005 Then
If BALANCE.PER_NO = 99 Then
If BALANCE.ACCOUNT Like "5%" Then
If HEAD.AREA Like "333%" Then
If HEAD.AREA Like "666%" Then
If HEAD.AREA Like "999%" Then

'Your result code here

End If
End If
End If
End If
End If
End If
End If
End If

End Sub

Note, all single quotes changed to double quotes.

A number can't be like 666% and like 333%

Pehaps you wanted to use OR ?

WHERE
CAR.FAC_NO = HEAD.FAC_NO AND
BALANCE.COMP='NIL' AND
BALANCE.YEAR=2005 AND
BALANCE.PER_NO=99 AND
BALANCE.ACCOUNT Like '5%'
AND (HEAD.AREA like '333%' OR HEAD.AREA like '666%'))

Hi Tim,

Yes, the initial WHERE should have alerted me.
