Add Shape To Cell With Cell Value Change

May 29, 2008

The Following works great in it's own workbook, however it will not run in mine. Is it because I have other macros running?

This is the error that I'm getting.

Automation error (Error 440)

Option Explicit

Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()

If Range("N10").Value = "1.0" Then
ActiveSheet.Shapes("AutoShape 578").Visible = True
Else
ActiveSheet.Shapes("AutoShape 578").Visible = False
End If

Change Shape Fill To Picture When Another Cell Equals To 1

May 14, 2014

I have set up a rollover hyperlink so that when I hover over the cell it changes colour and creates a good effect. To do this I have another cell on the sheet that turns to 1 when the cell in question is hovered over.

I need a code so that when that cell displays the number 1. the object (which is rectangle 2) changes from white fill. to a picture I have saved on my desktop.

I cant quite figure out the coding and have been messing about with things like..

if cell range e.g a1 = 1 then rectangle 2 .userpicture " path " else .solid etc.

Excel 2010 :: VBA Code To Automatically Change Colour Shape Based On Cell Value

Mar 2, 2012

I have a peice of code that i know is inefficient and it is in danger of becoming too large. I have a spreadsheet that has circles aligned to each cell. There are around 100 in total. The code changes the colour of the shape based on the cell value in which it sits. However, the code needs changing and also it does not automatically update the colour shape even though the cell value changes. I have to manually select a cell and then the formula bar and then press return for it to update.

I am using excel 2010.

This is the code i am using for each shape.

Code:
If Range("n12").Value = text Then
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Oval 250").Fill.ForeColor.RGB = RGB(255, 255, 255)
End If

[Code]....

Change Shape Name

Feb 2, 2010

I have a shape in Excel called Canada. I grouped it with another shape and want this new grouping to be called Canada. But when I enter Canada in the shape name entry box, it doesn't actually change it (as it thinks I am referring to the existing Canada).

I need something like Names manager, but for shapes, not ranges.

Select Shape In Active Cell

Mar 30, 2014

I am trying to select a shape in a cell and place a cell reference into the shape. I know the cell address, but do not know the shape reference. (The row that the cell and shape reside came from copying the row from another sheet and inserting it into the current sheet). I can not seem to come up with the correct code to accomplish this. Right now I have:

Cells(r + 1, 48).Select
ActiveCell.Shapes.Select
ActiveShapes.Formula = "$AW:" & r + 1

Where r+1 is the row where the line finally resides after insertion and "AW" is the column to the right of the cell where the shape resides.

I have tried to put the cell reference into the shape at the location where it is copied from but the reference is not dynamic and I can not seem to get it to be. Another issue that will arise is that the rows in the new sheet will probably be sorted and I question if the cell reference will follow the shape's new location.

Add Position Shape To Cell Location

Jan 15, 2008

i need to loop through a column of values and get each value

Dim LastRow2 As Long
Windows("SCFOutput.xlsm").Activate
Sheets("Q2SCNeg").Select
Columns("A:B").Select

ActiveSheet. Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Select
LastRow2 = ActiveCell.Row - 1
For Each c In Worksheets("Q2SCNeg").Range("A2:A" & LastRow2).Cells
MsgBox ActiveCell.Value
Next c

i did this but it selects the first blank row (row 15) and gives me an empty message box 14 times (which is right, but i need 14 values) the reason i need the loop is because the number ov values will always change

However, it does rezise it, but the shape doesn't keep it's central position. Is there a bit of code I can add to stop the shape from moving? In other words, have the shape rezise around it's center of location?

Change Button Shape Caption

Feb 14, 2008

How do you references the properties of a shape? I am having trouble with 2 different types. Firstly, I have a worksheet with a group of commandbuttons (all added using the Control toolbox) and I want to loop through them changing, for example, the enabled property of each to TRUE.

Secondly, I have some commandbuttons on a worksheet (added using the Forms toolbox). How would I loop through changing, say, the text on the buttons. I used the macro recorder to try to get an idea and got the following:

Sheet1.Shapes("button 15").Select
Selection.Characters.Text = "New Text"

Although this works, it is not very elegant, how can it be achieved without selecting the button each time, but rather by directly accessing the property.

Change/Modify/Add Text In Shape On Non-Active Worksheet

Sep 7, 2006

I have a button on say, sheet1 with text that I want to change after a certain action takes place; however, I was trying to change this text without switching sheets. (switching sheets isn't a big deal, I'm mainly trying to do it my way for the practice). I'm able to select the button on the other sheet without actually switching sheets, but when it comes to changing it's text I get an error. Here is the code I tried:

Sub macro1 ()
Worksheets("sheet2").Select
Worksheets("sheet1").Shapes("Button 2").Select
Selection.Characters.Text = "Done"
End Sub

Problem with this is it gives cell A1 on sheet2 the "done" text. I also tried this...but it gives the error.

Sub macro1 ()
Worksheets("sheet2").Select
Worksheets("sheet1").Shapes("Button 1").Select
With Worksheets("sheet1").Shapes("Button 1")
.Characters.Text = "Done"
End With
End Sub

Change Shape Color Based On Combo Box Selection

I am trying to use a userform ( Combo Box) to update my named cell "Aircraft1" then based on the value selected change the color of an object.

The code works great if I manually enter the value in the cell "Aircraft1", however if the dropdown list selects the value the object does not update its color.

Is there a way to update the cell via a combo box, and then have the VB code change the color of the object?

This is my

Option Explicit

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("Aircraft1")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Arrow1").Select

With Range("Aircraft1")

If .Value = 1 Then
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Arrow1").Select
Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Visible = msoTrue
Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Solid
