Find first rownumber in a filtered list

cosmicyes · #1 07-11-2018, 05:59 AM

Hi,

I have got a filtered list in my worksheet "Daten" and the first visible row for example has the number 16.
I´d like to get this value (16) by a little VBA Script.

This is what I have done so far:

Code:

Dim VisibleRange As Range

Dim FirstVisibleRow As Single
   
Set VisibleRange = Worksheets("Daten").AutoFilter.Range.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
 
FirstVisibleRow = VisibleRange.Cells(1).Row

Result:
FirstVisibleRow is 1, not 16.

What is my mistake?

Thanks a lot in advance!

You're probably seeing the Autofilter header row which is never filtered out by the autofilter. The header row is included in the Autofilter.range.
Try:

Code:

Dim VisibleRange As Range, FirstVisibleRow As Long ', LastVisibleRow As Long
With Worksheets("Daten")
  Set DataBodyRange = Intersect(.AutoFilter.Range, .AutoFilter.Range.Offset(1)) 'presumes there is an autofilter in place.
  On Error Resume Next    'in case all rows are hidden
  Set VisibleRange = DataBodyRange.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
  On Error GoTo 0
  If Not VisibleRange Is Nothing Then
    FirstVisibleRow = VisibleRange.Row
'    Set lastArea = VisibleRange.Areas(VisibleRange.Areas.Count)
'    LastVisibleRow = lastArea.Cells(lastArea.Cells.Count).Row
  End If
End With

If all rows are filtered out the result for first and last visible rows is the impossible row number zero.
