I have an excel file that I want a macro to run when the cell changes to "Yes" (location B21). The cell options right now in a drop down list is "Yes" or "No". The Macro is called helper. How do I get this to work when they pick yes or no from the drop down list. I wanted to attach the file in this post, but it will not let me. I can email it to anyone who would like to work on it.
View 9 RepliesBasically, I'd like my macro to be activated whenever the value in cell A4 changes. Cell A4 has a numerical value between 1 and 10. The macro clears a contents table. Here it is:
Sub Clear()
Sheets('Form').Select
Range("H4:L10").Select
Selection.ClearContents
End Sub
How to get the (module) macro to be activated whenever cell A4 changes value?

View 9 Replies View RelatedIs it posible that when data or text is entered into a cell and the enter key is pushed that this can either run a macro or activate a hyperlink to go to another worksheet for user to follow further instructions?
OR instead of going to another worksheet a pop up message appears with instructions and then can be OK'd to remove message and proceed?
I have a UDF in Cell Sheet1!A1 that inputs some ranges from Sheet1 and calculates a number. Then I have a sub that calculates the value of this function with Evaluate(Sheet1!A1.formula). However, this only works when I am in Sheet1. Otherwise, I get the wrong calculation. How can I avoid this? I will post the code in the open source forum as it otherwise is quite good and automatically resizes array functions to their proper size.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a cell (B2) in which there is a formula referencing the value of another cell with the purpose of generating a URL- ="[URL] such that when a numeric value is entered in B3, B2 is made to contain the full URL including B3 as a unique identifier.
I have a macro which straightforwardly copies B2 and pastes its value in the same cell, rendering the text value of the URL.
How do I go about activating the URL as a hyperlink in the macro? It seems like if I click in the cell and hit return, or right-click/Hyperlink.../OK I'm creating a macro to reference the exact unique identifier present at the time that I'm recording the macro- e.g. if B3 is "123", I'm setting the macro to set B2 as [URL] rather than the actual unique identifier in B3.
Has anyone successfully activated the content of a cell as a hyperlink dynamically based on its exact content?
Is there a way to activate a Macro with a conditional in one of the cells? It's like this, I want that if the content of A2 changes to "True" then C2,D2 and E2 change to bold and the background color change to yellow. Is there a way to do this?

I'm trying to figure out how to activate a macro from combo box or list box.
But no success.
I have a list of names:
AAA
BBB
CCC
111
222
333
That I can view through the combo box.
I have created a list of macros, that carry the same names,
AAA
BBB
CCC
111
222
333
The Q is: how can I link each name to its own macro?
so when chosen, will activate the macro?

I am writing a code that has a sheet change event linked to call on a number of macros. The vba works fine until I change another cell and it activates the same macro.
VB:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range
Select Case Range(BI47)
Case "1"

I have tried if statements and everything else I can find, most will not work, others report errors. The code and macros will be the same on many sheets but work independently and BI27 is the source of the change
I have a program that has all Excel Workbooks in seperate instances of Excel. There is a very sound reason for doing this.
The user has maybe 3 to 10 workbooks open. There are times when a workbook is active and has a Macro Link to open one of the already open workbooks.
When the user clicks the link, they naturally get an error message stating that the workbook is already open. Then they have to close the error msg and click on the Macrosoft Tab and look thru the list of open workbooks and then click the one they are looking for. Additionally, in this Menu Program the user really doesn't even have to know the name of the various workbooks.
I hope everyone will believe me when I state that this program works berautifully.
Right now I am simply cleaning up and making a few little things work better.
QUESTION When the user clicks on a macro link that is to open a workbook that is already open, how - On error - can I have the macro continue on and activate the requested workbook - - - Please remember they are all in separate instances of Excel.
Since the code I'm using can determine if the requested workbook is already open, I think there has to be a way to activate that workbook.
I have a multi-sheet workbook. The first sheet is a summary of results from the rest of the workbook. I would like this summary sheet to auto-refresh itself each time the sheet is activated. The VBA code triggered by the Worksheet/Activate event feeds some parameters out to other sheets, then copies back the results to the summary sheet of the workbook.
While doing so, it keeps "reactivating" the first sheet, causing it to get into an endless loop that is triggered by the Worksheet/Activate event. Essentially, I'd like the Worksheet/Activate event to go dormant for 15 seconds or so each time it is triggered.
I need macro that can search through worksheets and identify text urls (pair Networks - World Class Web Hosting.) within a cell and activate just those URLs that are not activated. I have many workbooks containing many worksheets. The URL references are always located somewhere down in column A after word 'Source:' but can be in the middle of string of text in that row after 'Source:'

i'm trying to combine vlookup and activecell here.
based on value that the user enter it'll activate the first cell on the row.
example:
a1:id
a2:1
a3:2
a4:3
b1:name
b2:josh
b3:alex
b4:ray
the user will input the id, and using vlookup i want to find the id and set the first column as an activecell. So for example the user input is 3, i want a3 to be the activecell.

I have a piece of clip art in a cell (that moves around in the right cell when i filter/sort the data). i need to know how to select/activate the cell that a piece of clip art housed in. is there a way to say at the beginning of the macro to select the cell behind the picture?
Macro works by offsetting a few cells to the left and pulling the name of the item in that row and then going to another worksheet that is named the same thing as what is in the cell i offset to. If i click on the cell behind the picture first then it works but if i have a diff cell activated when i click the picture it of course doesnt work - so all i need is a way to activate the cell behind the picture.
