Is it possible to have Excel place a mouse click on another program through a VBA code or another method? For example, my Excel sheet imports live data from another program and performs calculations on this data. If for example cell A3 is greater then 10, I would like to have the program click on another application window. Is this even possible? Who can I find to write this code for me? Excel NOOB here.

I have created a spreadsheet and a VBA form to save this information for each individual. As it stands right now, you enter the information it checks to see if it needs to create a new sheet and enters all the data on the first available line. That part is working perfectly.
What I need now is once it has put the information in the correct sheet, i need to bring the webpage to the foreground and input the data stored on the webpage. When I tried AppActivate it only activates the window, but it doesn't bring it to the foreground so no information is every entered.
I tried Application.Sendkeys ("% R") to restore it, but it is very hit and miss.
The title of this webpage is "Verizon Sell One More [Make a Referral] - Microsoft Internet Explorer provided by Verizon"

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a sheet that changes the number of columns based on data from other sheets. This is the only sheet in the workbook that I will print out every day. I have it set right now to fit all columns on one page, however sometimes this will result in the bottom 1/3rd of the sheet not being used. If I use fit all rows on one page, then some of the columns will get cut off. Is there a way to scale in both directions? My guess is there is not, but I thought I would ask because it would work great for me if I could.

I have a workbook that has 9 different tabs in it. Once all the information has been completed throughout the workbook, is there a code that could transfer specific data on each page to a different colum on that same page? I need to do this for 9 pages at one time. The information is listed differently on each page. I need to transfer data from the current data column to the previous data column once the entire workbook has been filed out.

Working with 2000 Excel is bringing some new chalanges. I see things are done different. I am trying now to keep my header to repeat from page to page.
For example I have a header that may say something like:
People, numbers, date, ect. And there are so many new rows they go on for pages long. How can I keep my header on the top of each page when it prints out on paper.
Assume that calculation is set to automatic and not manual, then is every formula on a page updated when any value on the page is changed, or only when the values in the cells pertaining to a particular formula change?
For instance, if cells a1-a10 have values and in a11 is a sum a1-a10 formula, and in b1-b10 are values and a sum b1-b10 formula in b11, if I change a value in range b1-b10 but do not change any values in a1-a10,then as well as the formula in b11 updating will the formula in a11 recalculate or does excel keep track of which cells have changed and thus is aware that the formula in a11 does not need to be recalculated?
I have a dataset that is as follows:
Col1 2 3 4 ...... 45

112 234
112 689
122 956
122 234
This goes on from left to right for 45 odd columns.
I need to copy each set i.e set 1 is 123 down to 122 to say cell a25 and then copy the next set i.e. 456 to 234 below the first set.
I need to somehow write a loop code that knows where to get the 2nd, then 3rd set, etc and copy it to the bottom of the preceeding set
