2003 - Conditionally Change The Range In Camera Object

Jan 15, 2010

I am using the camera tool in excel to show a range of cells. Is it possible to change the range the camera tool looks at conditionally? It's possible to do it manually and I've seen this done using a camera object to refer to charts in single cells, but have been unable to figure out how to do it by range.

Macro To Change Linked Picture (Camera) Cell Reference

Jun 20, 2008

I am a complete newbie with the camera tool. Is there any way to make the camera tool dynamic so that the cells the tool is referencing can change upon the click of a button or some other form of switch? I am creating my first dashboard and this is the last step for my report to be completely dynamic.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Never mind, I apologize i just figured this one out...

Create a user defined formulaIn the UDF Create an if statementThe if statement's condition is the logistics in the shift mechanismThe value if true is the first group of cells you want in the snap shotThe value if false is the second group of cells you want in the snap shot, The range you want to toggle betweenRename the cell reference of any snap shot you have taken with the UDF name. In my example my UDF is "Dude" so when you select the camera tool it shows =Dude as the cell referenceReference a scroll bar to the conditional cell you selected in the if statement or choose statement. This is the shift mechanism

If you want to toggle between more than 2 sets of data use =Choose instead of =if

Linking Object Color To Conditionally Formatted Cell Color In Microsoft Excel

Aug 31, 2012

I have a range of cells that change colors with conditional formats based on the cell value from high to low. I would like to link the cell color to an object such as a circle or rectangle. When the cell value changes along with the conditional format, the color of the object will also change.

Conditionally Change Number Format Based On Another Cell's Value

Dec 1, 2009

Format the number in Column AL to '[hh]:mm' when Column C's value is ="P/T", otherwise format to 'General'

Column C's value is referenced from another sheet in the same workbook via a VLOOKUP function.

Column AL's value is based on an IF formula which goes like this:
=IF($C4="F/T",SUM($AJ4)+($AK4/2),SUM($D4:$AH4))

Basically the above formula asks if Column C's value is F/T then count (because if F/T then the corresponding values in that row are whole numbers). If not, then SUM (because if P/T the corresponding values in that row are set to [hh]:mm format).

I have another sheet in the same workbook which has code (quoted below) which does something similar but I don't understand it enough to get it doing what I want for the sheet in question.

Excel 2003 :: VBA - Worksheet Object Temporarily Disappeared

Oct 25, 2011

I have a simple macro that cycles through the sheets in a workbook, and if the sheet's codename matches one of a defined list, some of its data is added to a summary sheet.

The macro works exactly as intended, but a strange thing happened yesterday: some data was missing from the summary sheet because one of the sheets was being ignored. This sheet is named 'MCP' on its tab, and has codename Sheet8.

Here's the strange part: on stepping through the code, cycling the sheets, I noticed that the sheet icon, name and codename had disappeared from the Microsoft Excel Objects folder in the Project Explorer. When the loop got to the sheet in question

Code:
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
Debug.Print ws.Name
Debug.Print ws.Codename

The above code displayed its name (correctly) as 'MCP', but its codename was blank; the sheet was therefore skipped by the code because the codename had to match against a defined list.

While I was pondering this, and doing some web searches, the sheet then re-appeared in the Project Explorer and everything worked again.

My question is this: is it likely to be due to the workbook being shared? I know that workbook sharing in Excel is often discouraged, but this is a simple workbook only used by a maximum of three users (two of these had the workbook open at the time the issue was reported)

I've changed the code so that the sheet name is inspected in the event that the codename is blank, which should guard against the issue provided sheets are not deleted/renamed.

Windows XP, Excel 2003

I have the same report, one a monday snapshot, the other a daily comparison. I would like to index columns B, in both reports, to find the same part number and then reference the horizontal row and highlight increases in columns G thru AD. The comparison report looks identical but the column B numbers may not be in the same location. this is a report to show prosduction requirements and the increases throughout the week.

Conditionally Show/Hide Columns & Change Button Caption

Jan 22, 2009

After scouring the entire OzGrid, I have found the following two macros that partly satisfy what I want to achieve. BTW, following two macros are executed on Sheet2 and I want to achieve the following:
On Worksheet_Activate, show columns that match the criteria value in Sheet1.D4 (Sheet1.D4 contains a dropdown list with about 6 text values). In addition to that, if Sheet1.D4 value is blank then show all columns. Right now, it successfully shows columns that match the D4 value but does not work if that D4 value is left blank, instead it hides all columns in range (C:CV). So in short, to the first macro, I need to add the criteria if D4 is blank, then keep the sheet intact and don’t hide anything, just show all columns.Once on that sheet after the Worksheet_Activate event has occurred, with the second macro “ToggleColumnsVisibility” following things need to happen. BTW, currently this macro is assigned to a button (from Forms Toolbar).If cell D4 has a value, then the button’s caption should read “Show All” and when that button is pressed, it should show all columns in the range (C:CV), and the button's caption needs to change to “Show Selected”. In “Show Selected” mode, when that button is pressed, it needs to show all the columns that match the D4 value.If cell D4 is left blank, then the button's caption should read "No Action" and when the button is pressed, it should not do anything but just show all columns.

As you will notice in the header, my experience with Excel is very limited, so detailed instructions will be greatly appreciated. I am also hoping that proposed solution uses some of the efficient/effective ways of using loops such as described below (example taken from this website from this link http://www.ozgrid.com/VBA/SpeedingUpVBACode.htm)


Sub TrueOrFalseFaster()
Dim bYesNo As Boolean
Dim i As Integer
bYesNo = (i = 5)
MsgBox bYesNo
End Sub

Sub ToggleTrueOrFalseFaster()
Dim bYesNo As Boolean
bYesNo = Not bYesNo
MsgBox bYesNo
End Sub .........

Conditionally Format Dynamic Range?

Jul 18, 2014

I'm looking for a way to apply conditional formatting to a dynamic range, as the number of rows will vary each week.

Col A could be used as a reference, as it will always have a number in it, but wherever it stops is where I would need the conditionally formatted range to cut-off as well.

The actual range that would need formatting applied to it is Columns F-I where:

For any values < 1.00 (it should also cover blanks, which should be treated as zeros), red highlighting is applied & For any text that reads "Flagged" or "Not Reported", they would need to become bold

Additionally, I would like to start the formatting on Row 2 of the sheet in question, named "1010version"

Conditionally Formatting Range Of Cells Based On Formula?

Jan 18, 2013

I had a list of people on sheet1 of my workbook, and on sheet 2 a table with a list of names and their department.

I started off by wanting to use VLOOKUP within the conditional formatting feature of Excel to find anyone who worked in "finance" in sheet 2. I could get this formula to work on the sheet but as soon as I put it into the conditional format feature it wouldn't work.

Trying to find a work around I added a column in sheet 1 where I inputted the VLOOKUP formula and caused it to display "1" if the person worked in finance. It looked like this:

A: Person's name
B: Value of 1 or 0

The idea was to hide column B and use conditional formatting to say "if column B2 = 1 colour column A2 blue". Now I could get this to work on a single row but couldn't make it work over a range, ie. "if cells A2:A150 have a 1 in the column next to them colour the relevent cell blue"

I feel I'm missing the obvious. I found quite a few answers online but non actually specified how to get the conditional formatting to recognise the relevent cell it should be looking at in a range.

1) How would I get conditional formatting working over a range

2) Whether it is possible to use VLOOKUP within the conditional formatting function of Excel.

Insert Time On Change In Value Within Row - 2003

Aug 17, 2009

Im searching for a script to help me insert the current time value when a value within the row is changed. For example, if a value changes within the specified row, i.e. B1 changes, then within B12, the current date is inserted. However if B1 does not change then the old B12 value (old last change date) stays the same.

How To Use Camera Icon Tool Using Macro

Jul 9, 2012

How to use the Camera Icon Tool using a Macro?

I want to copy the First Row which is the Column heading of one Sheet to a different Sheet
Example : From Col A till Col G First Row is to be copied as an Image. Normally I do it using the Camera Icon, however when I tried recording a Macro for the same it did not work..

So how do I that if I provide the Start Column and End Column Alphabet as a Variable is that possible.. I want this Image to not remain Volatile which is the case using the Camera Tool..

So, how do i get the picture of only the first row or any row and store it is an Image in a different sheet as static picture so that even when the sheet is moved to a different location it does not make a difference to the Image.

Excel 2003 :: Why Numbers Change When Save In CSV

Jan 31, 2012

I enter 13 digit number in a cell, when I save my Worksheet in CSV format the number is changed.

Example:
I enter 9328627000014 (this is a barcode) After saving this file the number is displayed in the Formula Bar as 9328630000000 and in the Cell it show up as 9.33E+12 When I go to Format Cells, this cell is selected as Scientific. When I change it to Number, after saving it again it returns back to scientific with the old display. Also when I enter 2 digit number in another cell in another column and I choose to be displayed as number with 2 decimal places, after saving the file it returns back as General format. When I am saving this file as CSV a window pops up with a warning that my file may contain features that are not compatible with CSV. I can not choose text format in the cell because it is a datafeed and it has to be read correctly as number.

I use Microsoft Office 2003.

2003 Data Validation Doesn't Trigger Worksheet Change

Dec 31, 2008

I have a bit of code that calls a formatting sub depending on which cell is modified. It is triggered by the Worksheet_Change event, determines which cell is modified, and either calls the formatting sub or doesn't based on the location of the modified cell.

Some of the columns in the sheet have data validation with drop downs. If I select a value from the drop down, it doesn't trigger the Worksheet_Change. If I type a value into the same cell, it does.

This was apparently an issue in Excel '97, but supposedly fixed in '03?

Excel Camera Tool - Print Preview Different From Display On Screen

I have place a camera-picture of a table on the right side of a chart. On the screen it looks great! (See below - with some redaction)

.... but when I print it the table expands off of the side of the chart. Scale is 100%, zoom is 100%, Excel 2010 (See below - with some redaction). Whether or not I have a print area does not seem to make a different in the problem. Also, it appears that this happens with any shape I put in that place, it's not specific to the camera tool.
