View 8 RepliesI'm trying to assign a shortcut to a macro I wrote in VB. However, when I go to Tools->Macros->Macros, none of my macros (whether coded in VB or recorded) have the "Options..." button enabled, so I can't assign the macro. This happens whether I use Excel 2003 or Excel 2007. The file is not readonly and I have tried the various levels of macro security. I have VBA installed.
View 5 Replies View Relatedi have tried using the letter M as a shortcut key (because it is to activate a "Move" function) but unfortunately it doesn't work. I gather from this that not all of the keys are available as shortcut keys presumably because they already have function.
Is there a way around this? and/or is there a list somewhere of the available shortcut keys?
Need way to list the active shortcut keys? I know there are manyy lists of the desfault shortcuts, buit I'm trying to generate a list of the curreently active shortcut keys & what macros they tie to. I have a vague recollection that someone had a VBA means of doing this, but I cannot find it in the forums I've searched.

I have an Excel add-in that makes use of an Application-level event handler to detect when workbooks are activated / deactivated, and adjusts the command bars / ribbon accordingly. The add-in also includes a developer mode, so I have a shortcut key to stop the add-in while running, set the .IsAddIn property =False, and then change whatever settings I feel that I need to.
Problem is, when I run the shortcut to stop the add-in, and then run my shortcut to restart it, my event handling no longer works. I've done some MsgBox testing, and verified that the class module's "Initialize" event gets called, but subsequent events (i.e. WorkbookActivate) go unnoticed.
I'm wondering if Excel will allow me to start an Application event handler using WithEvents, stop it (by setting the class module variable = Nothing), and then re-start the event handling.
The one thing that has always bugged me about Excel is that in order to modify an existing cell, I need to click on the cell and then click in the formula box above. If I want to overwrite the contents of the cell, I can just start typing, but if I want to edit it, I need to use the mouse. It really seems like like Alt-D should move up to this window like it does in Internet Explorer. I can move around Most Windows applications without need of a mouse save for this one area.
View 4 Replies View Relatedi need to create a shortcut (ideally ctrl-z) that will allow me to search column D which has a tonne of street names in it. i need to do a "custom" search and enter "contains" and then have the field on the right be left empty for me to enter what i need to enter.
I want to hit ctrl-z (or a b c d e f g h etc...) and have that blank field brought up for my to enter something to search for and have all those criteria met "custom-contain-?whatitype?"
I've tried using the record new macro function but it won't let me leave the dialogue box open for me to enter my street name.
i hope i explained that well enough....
basically i want to hit ctrl-z and have that custom-contains for column d open and ready for me to search.
autofilter is on. and i am referring to the drop down menu that lists "top 10" "all" and "custom" i want to chose custom and then chose "contains" from the first drop down menu in the dialog box that pops up.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a shortcut key or some fast way of getting to the last line of information on a excel spreadsheet.
I currently have order spreadsheets with over 10000 lines used and everyday I need to add more lines and if I have used the Shift+F to locate an old order then I can be say sat on line 40 but my last inputted text could be on line 7000 and I would like to know how I can get to that line without knowing the line number.
The shortcut must take me to the last text entered cell not the last cell on the worksheet.
Simulating the ALT+DOWN ARROW shortcut. I came up with the hereunder code.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make a macro that will help with data-entry. In two columns of each sheet (columns D and J), I'm entering school grade information ("K", "Pre-K", "1", etc, up to "12"). As I move off of each cell with data so-entered, I want to have the entry formated such that "1", becomes "1st", "12" becomes "12th", etc. I've put code into "Worksheet_SelectionChange" and the code works but...
1. The cell value is not changed upon leaving the cell, only after re-entering the cell. So, I type "1" in the cell, move on (the cell value remaining as "1"), then go back to that cell and the value becomes "1st" like I want. So each cell requires entry and then (for example), left arrow, then right arrow, then move on the next cell for data-entry. Since I'm only saving a few keystrokes for each cell, this approach is just about a wash. I need to have the data changed upon leaving the cell. Is there a way?
2. There are 50 or 60 sheets in the workBook and I have to copy that code onto each sheet. Is there a way to move it to the workBook level? Failing that, is there a way to ease the process of pasting that code to each of the sheets?
The following macro works when I run using Alt+F8+Enter
The macro also works when it is linked to a button on the worksheet.
However, it does not work when I try to use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+P.
I've tried adding the shortcut key code into the macro -- still doesn't work.

Is there a way to put a hyperlink in a cell using a shortcut? In my case i have names in column (last name, first name.pdf). This naming convention is the same as the file folder i am linking this cell to. Instead of right-clicking on the cell for all 600 names and "insert hyperlink" and button down to the file, is there a better more faster way to do this? Say all the names 1-600 are A1:A600.

I often find myself moving from one sheet in a workbook to another over and over. I wanted a shortcut that moved between the last two sheets selected.
Similar to how Alt+Tab works with windows.
Does anybody know a keyboard shortcut or if not is there a macro that could be added to perosnal.xls that would mean i would aways b able to switch between two sheets quickly.
I am unable to create a macro and later go back and assign a shortcut key and run the macro.

I am just looking for a keyboard shortcut macro. I change the font color in rows one at a time to either blue or red by selecting that row and using the format toolbar to select the color I want. Is there a macro shortcut for changing font color?
Even further, can the macro be able to change the font color of the entire row without highlighting the entire row? Meaning if I only have 1 cell selected within the row I want to color the font and apply the shortcut, can it color the font in the entire row???

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook that when I open it opens a toolbar that was designed for it. I have been asked to make changes to this toolbar. One of the changes is to allow shortcut keys to run these modules. I have tried recording a macro and viewing the code, I tried applying this code there but it does not using the shortcut key. note that this toolbar is only available to this workbook, so these macros are not available to the personal workbook.
