1. When I close the last open file, EXCEL stays open? why? what can be done?
2. When I open a workspace first after starting excel, the task bar does not show the files included. However, if I open another file first and then a workspace, all files are visible in the taskbar.
how to compare two columns on two worksheets and extract any different entries - I have tried using filters and formulas but can't seem to get this to work. I've been looking at Macro's and VB but as a novice am finding it difficult to construct something that works!
My workbook contain two worksheets containing Journal titles and their ISSN's from different sources. I need to ensure the lists match on both columns and if not have a new summary worksheet of anomalies.
Example: worksheet 1 worksheet 2 Column A Column B Column B Column C publication_title print_identifier Title ISSN Abacus 0001-3072 Abacus 0001-3072 Accounting 0810-5391 Accounting 0810-5391 Archaeologica 0065-101X Archaeologica 0077-4204 Acta Neurologica 0001-6314 Acta Geologica 1000-9515
So ideally my summary worksheet should have results: Column A Column B Archaeologica ISSN error Acta Neurologica Title on worksheet 1 Acta Geologica Title on worksheet 2
These are lists with around 3000 entries on so VERY time consuming to do manually!
I need to make a formula which can take a date formatted cell 01/01/2007, and take only the 2007 and compare that to a cell with general format with the txt 2007. If I use =RIGHT(A1;4) i get the date serial rather than the year... how can I pull out only the 4 digit year..?
I've been sent a document by a client which has come with an add-in which has automatically installed itself into the Ribbon. It's on the Add-In tab (obviously!) and the Command Group is named 'Custom Toolbars'. What's annoying is once I close the document, the Add-In stays there and I have a redundant tab with an irrelevant Command Group .
Now, I've done a bit of searching and how found a number of websites that give instructions on add-ins. However, the add-in that has come with the client's document isn't on the list and hence I can't remove it. I need to do to get rid of this? I've contacted the client, but they're suspiciously quiet about the whole thing.
find attached a File that is a Part answer to a Thread. The problem is the code in sheet 1 ("Amend Test") Button, does not seem to run in 2007, only on earlier versions.
I have a piece of code that arranges a chart to fit the data it should show. The code used to work perfectly in the old Excel version, but after an "upgrade" to Excel 2007 I get "Automation Error" from the line where the scale type is set.
I've just had Office 2007 installed on my computer and I HATE the new Excel layout. Is there any way I can get the old look back - I liked the old customizable toolbars and I hate these new ribbons.
I know there's one customizable easy access toolbar. Is there a way I can get more toolbars and get rid of these dangblasted ribbons?
We have a large list of data with an autofilter on it. On column, R we want to show ONLY Blanks. Once we have the Blanks filtered, we put the word, TRADE (or any other word that you want). We finally select all the TRADE cell that were previously shown as blank and highlight them yellow. When we cancel the filter, all the rows in between are now highlighted yellow whereas in Excel 2003, only the rows that we highlighted when the filter was in place had the yellow highlighting.
There is a workaround that you can select each cell individually, apply a fill color, go onto the next cell, apply the color, etc but that is not efficient.
When I noticed that FileSearch was missing after I updated to Office 2007, I decided to recreate the class and save it as a file to import anytime I needed to use it. I tried to use as little code as possible, so if there is some property you would need to add then you may have to add it yourself, but this will at least give you most of the funcitonality of the original Class without having to update your existing code too much.
You have to just reference the class and then it can still be used in a with block or however you are accustomed. Here are the two class files that I have, the first I named FileSearch (go figure):
Dim pLookIn As String Dim pSearchSubFolders As Boolean Dim pFileName As String Public FoundFiles As New Collection
Public Property Get LookIn() As String LookIn = pLookIn End Property Public Property Let LookIn(value As String) pLookIn = value End Property Public Property Get SearchSubFolders() As Boolean LookIn = pSearchSubFolders...................................
how to prevent that autocorrect "feature" in the Excel 2007 VBA IDE? It always deletes the last space I type after a second or so, i.e. moving the cursor to the left whenever I stop typing (to think for a moment or so).
I've just installed Windows 7 32bit and put my Office 2007 suite on. Everytime I open Excel I get an error message stating: Compile error in hidden module: modMenus
I have an Excel spreadsheet that I have developed into an over the top flight calculator/scheduling tool. I am using Excel because developing this prduct into a stand-alone program would be absolutely murder to get approved for use on my network.
Since Excel and Access has already been approved, I began coding this project there.
Now that my calculator functions are nearly complete, I am beginning to develop a database of airfields and other misc. flight data that I and others on my network can see and manipulate. To make my calculator funtion at 100% effectiveness, I will need to use VBA to open the Access DB and pull out specific data. I will also need it to open and display some Access pop-up forms that I have just developed. Does anyone know what code I would use for excel to display and retrieve Access' information?
I have downloaded Excel 2007 as a trial on to my computer (with Excel 2003 in another directory), when I load an excel file developed in Excel 2002 (containing macros) and try an open it with Excel 2007 the message "This workbook has lost its VBA, ActiveX controls and any other programmability-related features" - no problems in Excel 2003
We have a number of Macros written for Excel 2003. We have now upgaded to Excel 2007 and the macros no longer function. The main problem seems to be connected to the removal of the Office Assistant from Office 2007:
Assistant.On = True With Assistant.NewBalloon . Heading = "Reports Menu" .Text = "Select your reports" .CheckBoxes(1).Text = "Activity Schedule" .CheckBoxes(2).Text = "Customer Schedule" .CheckBoxes(3).Text = "Monthly Schedule" .CheckBoxes(4).Text = "A3 Print by Customer" .Button = msoButtonSetOkCancel .Show If .CheckBoxes(1).Checked Then Module1.ACTIVITY_SCHEDULE_PRINT End If............................
The above code falls over at the first statement with Run-time error '-2147467259 (80004005)': Method 'On' of object 'Assistant' failed. Has support for this object been removed from Office 2007 completely or is there a workaround that I can use?
I am trying to make a timesheet in Excel 2007 with a formula.
I want it to read: IN = 8:30 AM, OUT = 11:30 AM, IN = 12:30 PM, OUT = 4:30 PM
The total hours will be 8 because there is an hour for lunch.
And if I work a few hours one day and leave before lunch, I want the calculation to be right. I found a formula but it wouldn't add the lunch hour and I added a +1 in the formula but it makes the calculations wrong for when I work for only 2 or 3.
how to add rows which was so simple in earlier Excel versions, but now is bafflegab.
Even after several efforts to comply with what follows when at INSERT, all I got was to move cell I'm in one to the right with all other cells in the row following suite.
Excel 2003 used to have a feature where the user can select and set the print area. I do not see this feature in Excel 2007. So, how dow I set the print area in Excel 2007?
Create a well labelled pie chart on a separate worksheet to show the profit made by each of the Liverpool departments to the overall profit for 2006. On the labels show the percentage contributed by each department.
I want to create a pie chart in Excel 2007. The data is not next to each other in the columns. How do I create a chart so that it includes the legends as the various departments and the data shown as the figures given under 2006?
I have some schedules set up with multiple formulas and macros (originally setup in 2003) however when attempting to make this a 2007 file when I go to copy a sheet to create another schedule I get the message “A formula or sheet you want to move or copy contains the name “xx”, which already exists on the destination worksheet. Do you want to use this version of the name? To use the name as defined in the destination sheet, click yes. To rename the range referred to in the formula or worksheet, click no, and enter a new name in the Name Conflict dialog box.”
I would like to send a .xls file created in Excel 2007 to a user who will work with this file on a PC that runs Excel 2003. Will they be able to open and use a file created in a newer version of Excel?
I do a lot of validation of Workbooks (Excel 2000). To physically show that only specific cells are unlocked I use a combination of Defined Names and Conditional formatting which uses the old Excel 4 macro command "GET.CELL" as follows
I'm trying to load the following XML file in Excel 2007 (from Excel 2007 VBA Programmmer's Reference) and get the error "Strict Parse Error" when I do so.
I'm having a bit of an issue with OWC in 2007. I know they have been deprecated but I was under the impression, form many places including MS themself, that you could install them. I downloaded this file
All seems to go well and there seems to be a appropriate .dll in c:Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft SharedWeb Components111033 by the name of OWCI11.DLL. However when I attempt to add a reference to that file in a VBA project in Excel (it's one that has an old broken reference to 2003 OWC) by browsing to that file it tells me
"Can't add a reference to the specified file"
What have I done wrong? Is what I am attempting, getting 2007 to use OWC, even possible? Note I did not write any of the code for this Excel Add-in so have very little idea about what OWC are for.
