Running A Program Command Within A Cell
Jun 8, 2006This is the command I want to run from a cell:
c:windowssystem32mstsc.exe /v :<servername>
This will allow me to click on a servername in a column and RDC into it.

I'm using a UserForm to inform the user that the program is still running. Unfortunately, when I do: UserForm1.Show the program hangs there until I hit the Ok button. How can I make the program run as the box is shown.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a cell (B1) in the second Sheet. It contains two sentences of text, which will be spoken when entering that Sheet (by a click in the previous Sheet).
Code:
Sub ButStart_Click()
Sheets(2).Select
Range("B1").Speak
End Sub
When the Speak command is running no other user interaction can be made. As the text is quite long not all the users want to wait until it is finished. So I need the users to be able to click on the "Next" button which takes them to the next Sheet (and start speaking the text there).
Can I program column B to show a certain value depending on the presence of a string of text in column A? For example, if A1 contains the word "Barbie", then cell B1 shows the value: "Ken"
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a simple program that picks up an ID on sheet1, finds that ID on sheet2, picks up the information in one cell from sheet2, and brings that information back to sheet1.
The program works fine until for all IDs above row 570. After row 569 something strang happens. The programs is still able to find the ID but when it tries to pick up the one cell value it is saying it is blank yet you can physically see the data is present.
In all my years of VBA programming I have never encountered anything like this. Especially, where things work fine on half the worksheet and not on the other.
I am posting the code below, but I don't actually believe it is in the code. I cannot post the workbook because of the information it contains...
Trying to program cell C1:
If A1 is between .81 and 3, AND if B1 is Adult, then C1 is Priority Mail
If A1 is greater than 3, AND if B1 is Adult, then C1 is FedEx Ground
If A1 is Less than .81, AND if B1 is Adult, then C1 is First Class Mail
If A1 is Less than .81, AND if B1 is Child, then C1 is Hold for Inspection
etc.
There will be a list of ~45 conditions that will populate a specific value in C1. Can this be done? If so, how?
The thing is that i have alot of sheets (more than 20) and my program picks 2 values from the same cell locations on each sheet. This leeds to more than 30 arguments in my formula. I am gonna use this for alot of excelfiles constructed in the same way, but with varying order and names on the sheets.

I can't for the life of me get it apply a second command (such as getting the file size of each file)..
For example:
VB:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim Z
Z = Split(CreateObject("wscript.shell").exec("cmd /c forfiles /P C:UsersapoDesktopTextFiles /S /M *.* /d
[Code]....
The end result being the filename and the filesize shown..

I have this simple formula: =IF(SEARCH("ABC",BQ239,1)>0,"Found", "Not Found")
Instead of saying Not Found when the value is not in the cell BQ239 text string I get #VALUE! returned
how do I get it to say "Not Found"? I searching for a substring that can be anywhere in the string.
How to determine the correct formula for this requirement?
Assuming I have 2 individual excel files and an index excel file (in reality, there are more than hundreds of file). For index excel, once the user enter part number (eg. 1 or 2), the excel will look for the part number excel file and determine vlookup function.
The only problem I have here is I can not make the index file automatically add the part number shown on most left column into the required formula (replace the part number file section).
I tried use the indirect function but this require each file to be opened, which is not possible for actual use. I am looking for a function that can work in closed worksheet.

I am creating a spreadsheet for inventory use. I want to have a running total in (1) cell based upon a new/different number being entered into a different cell.
Column B, Row 1 (This will be a new/different number entered every day - inventory in or out, so positive or negative number)
Column D, Row 1 (This will be a running total based on numbers inserted in previous 2 columns)
Basically what I have is a key inventory. So there is column A with key number, B should be keys IN, C should be keys OUT, or ideally B would be IN and OUT meaning, for inventory IN input a positive number and for inventory OUT input a negative number, and D Should be total.
Column E represents number of keys currently in the inventory. I was going to hide the current inventory column so all you see is IN/OUT and total.
So what I need is to be able to just come in and type in a number in the IN and/or OUT column, without having to add/subtract it with the number already in that column.
Bottom line, I'd like to be able to use IN and/or OUT columns to just type in numbers as they come and not have to worry about what's already in those columns and get correct total number.
Ok here it is. Attached worksheet shows
Column A - Key Numbers...No data value
Column B - Inventory IN
Column C - Inventory OUT
Column D - Total
Column E - Current Inventory(Starting point)
So the formula I used to get what i currently have is (=B2-C2+E2). This way whatever i input in columns C and C. totals out in D. But this way every time I want to add/subtract a number in B and C, i have to add to the number already in the column. I'd like to be able to type in a number in B and C as i go and still have a correct total. I wouldn't mind having just one column for in/out and use positive and negative numbers to differentiate inventory in or out.

I am trying to get my Excel Worksheet to count the times that a cell changes. The data is in Column C, and I want to enter it in column H. For example. If Currently, the count in C1 is 5, but changes to 4, H1 should read one, then the next day, if I change the value from 4 to 7, H1 should read 2, and so forth and so forth. I am counting the amount of changes to a cell.
I want it going the length of the column, but for each cell, like C2 lines up with H2 and so forth. I have looked everywhere for a particular Macro, but am having a hard time finding one.
I am trying to utilise a vba script for DNS resolution which i got from Followup: DNS Lookup and Ping in Excel - CodeProject
I have a list of IP addresses that I want to use this on, however if I test this by using the test instructions, excel does nothing, its just text in a cell, so I would like to know how would this procedure get called from the spreadsheet?
Code:
GetHostname("4.2.2.1") in any Excel cell.
or
Use: GetIpAddress("www.google.com") in any Excel cell.
I want to store 20 days of stock information for any given stock in 20 cells. Cell 20 will be 20 days into the past from today. Cell 0 would be today and would be the value that updates (let's say the price) using the stockquote msn add in.
I want cell 20 to be cell 19's value tomorrow, cell 19 to be cell 18's value tomorrow, and so on. So essentially, everyday I open it, cell 20's value gets trashed, and all the values become one day older, effectively having a 20 day tracking of a particular stock. I want to also make sure that if I update day 0 or (today())'s value, that today()-1, etc.. doens't change just because today() was updated. There has to be a change in the date for that to happen, so referencing a static cell that contains today() will most likely be useful.
I am having grief trying to get a sub from a Module to run when a single cell on a worksheet changes.

wksheet = Name
vbgraph wksheet

I wrote this code to find values greater then 150000 and replace it with the value in the previous cell in column 2 staring at row 2 till the last cell that contains a value.
I used the IsNumeric command to look in each cell. I ran the code and it changed all the numbers that were above 150000. Then before it finished the error came up. It is a Aplication-Defiend or Object-Defiend error. why this is happening? Also is there any way that I can use the IsNumeric command in the While condition line?
Basically, I'm trying to have a cell (eg.A1) where i can input a dollar value and when enter is pressed, on another cell (eg.A2) the dollar value gets added, then the original cell (A1) is cleared for the next input.
Then when I put the next input (A1) I want it to add on to this running dollar total (A2) and yet again A1 is cleared for the next input.
In addition to this I require an additional cell (eg.A3) that when each time a value is added in A1 it counts the times this is done.

I am new to the whole MACRO VBA thing and I am desperately trying to learn. So this is the Situation. I recorded a macro of an If statement on a row. very simple. Some of the rows below ( Like 700) need the same formula that I recorded. I would like to highlight the cells that need the formula and run the macro on them. however the macro only runs one at a time. Is there a way that this can be avoided?

I am looking for a command that will time stamp a cell with just the time, not the date. I've already looked at =Now(), but that, unfortunately, includes the date as well. I just need the 24hr value.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have 2 rows that can only = 0.5 based on other cells. The 2 cells are then sumed to get a 1 in another cell.
In the cell that sums the 0.5's it should show a value of 1. I need to be able to only sum these cells when they see the value of 1.
Example of this
A1 B1 C1
0.5 0.5 1
A20
=C1:C19
Is it possible to hide a command button if a cell value is 0, and unhide if the same cell value is 1.
