I am trying to create two macros. The first macro will add a button, and the second macro will delete the button. I am noticing that when I add the button in the first macro, Excel is automatically naming the button (i.e. Button 26), and then when I try to delete the button with the second macro, this button name is not recognized. How can I name or set the button as a variable so that I can successfully run these two macros?
View 6 RepliesI have a Productivity Report that contains very basic formulas that provide totals for 4 columns (B6:E6) and an average for one column (F). I have included two command buttons, one to add a new row and the other to delete a row.
I need to be able to add or delete rows depending on how many employees' productivity I will be tracking on any given week; each row represents a separate employee. I need the following functionality out of my form:
1) formula in column F needs to copy and paste with each new line
2) when a new line is copied and pasted I need the contents to be cleared
3) I need the user to be blocked from deleting the first row (3 on this form) in the table
The code I'm using for my "Add" button is:
[Code].....
The code I'm using for my "Delete" button is:
[Code] .....
The buttons add and delete rows as I'd like them to but content is not clearing, with each row added the contents provide a sub total. I've tried various lines of code (some more complicated and some less) before I recorded my own macro (see above).

I have data in several (50+) columns. I want to be able to sort all my data by the column I select with one click. So, I basically want a button over each column that sorts the data by that column. It would be ideal to have the same "Sort" macro that is attached to all the buttons. The macro should somehow know that the column the button is in, is the column to sort by.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am working on a worksheet where users are asked by a userform combo box to select a product. When they select the product a picture of that product appears in the top left corner of the worksheet.
I have managed to get the picture to appear however delete any pictures that were in that cell before pasting a new one, cause when changes the product a picture is pasted over on top of the previous one however if the pictures are not the same size you may see the previous under the current.
delete any previous pictures. Here is the code I have so far.

I have a spreadsheet with multiple similar entries I would like to add up. What would work well for me is to be able to input a column like a and a target column like e.
So in this case it would search throughout column a and wherever it finds a duplicate entry add column e and then delete one of the rows. I could then run it again under different column criteria if needed.
So if I had the below sheet:
I could search by column a and add up column h to read like this:
I am using several formulas to conditionally format and fill in rows from column A to column BS. These are the formulas and application areas:
=$BS4<>"" Applied to =$A$3:BS$350
=$G3<>"" Applied to =$A$3:BS$350
=OR($J3="Regional Manager",$J3="Assistant Manager",$J3="Manager") Applied to =$A$3:BS$350
=OR($J3="Recruiting Manager",$J3="Owner",$J3="District Manager",$J3="Office Manager") Applied to =$A$3:BS$350
If I do not add or delete any rows, everything works just fine. The problem I am running into is that this list is constantly updated and rows are being added and deleted. When I do this, it duplicates my rules and changes my applied to ranges. Here are some examples of the changes:
=$N$3:$BS$3
=$A$3:$M$63
=$N$4:$BS$64
This creates much excess work, when I have to go back and change everything back to the way it should be. how I can either modify my formulas or application areas to correct this situation?
I have a spreadsheet with 20 or so columns but that number can change at any time. I need my code to by dynamic so if a column is deleted (or added) my code will still work.
Each column has a name in row 2 and I'm trying to use that in order to make everything dynamic. For example, my code counts the number of blue cells in colums D4:G68, but now if someone adds a column before column D, everything gets messed up and it will still count the cells in D4:G68 but I want to use E4:H64 now. Does that make sense? I have made code that searches the column names and returns the column number to correspond to the name. How would I change this?
Range ("C8") = "= CountBlue(E4:G68)"
the code doesn't look exactly like this, I believe it is actually in R1C1 format
I created a button that I have created from a form but I cant seem to delete it or cut it. It just remains there, is there any way out of this?

I need to stop users from adding and deleting sheets in a workbook
My idea was obviously to disable the command bars to add or delete sheets in open event and then put back in before close.
But then i thought...whats stopping them from right clicking the sheet tab and inserting a sheet, can i remove that menu to...?
I also wasnt sure if there were short cut keys to add or delete sheets.?
Some of my users use excel alot so i want to account for an tips they know that i might not.
ColumnA in my data base contains dates. How can I delete the entire row if the date is before today's date and add a new date at the end of the range to replace the deleted row.
If the "Summary" sheet contains a chart, the chart must be deleted when I click the ViewSummary button. The code below does not achieve this and I can't figure it out?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have developed a 'Work In Progress' (WIP) worksheet containing space for several jobs. Each job has a group of option buttons in it which are NOT acting as triggers or code dependent (just for selection purposes).
Users are able to delete the entire job (12 rows) but the option buttons just move 'up'. I know how to delete these items by use of code if I could determine their name. But - can I programmatically determine the group name for the specific job/range that is going to be deleted.
Worksheet automatically is protected - there is no password.
Will excel allow text to be permanently be positioned in a specific cell even if rows or columns are added?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI currently have the following Macro for one of my many checkboxes in 2007 Excel:
[Code] .....
It works perfectly until additional rows are added/deleted before the indicated rows in the code (It changes the number sequence in the workbook). The number sequence stays the same in the code which means I am now hiding rows either before (delete rows) or after (insert rows) the intended rows I want to be hidden. Is there a way to change the above code to remain with the assigned rows regardless of the adding/deleting of rows before it?
I'm using Conditional Formatting for an entire column to check the value of each cell and compare it to the value of a cell in the same row but a different column. (Cell Value equals =$D2) It works great until I insert or delete a cell in the formatted column. The reference does not change as one would expect. I've played around with formulae such as =$D2<>$P2 but the reference only changes for the P2, not the D2. I've also tried using =CELL("contents", ADDRESS(Row(),4)) but this causes excel to complain.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI guess I have a simple question, i want a command button in excel which does the following:

I just stuck on the basics. I want to add a new sheet through a macro and a button in the same. I am unable to make it dynamic. it is giving me an error:
I have a form that allows users to browse for a file so the location can be stored in a cell. When they select a file the form then creates another area so people can browse for another file. (Similar to an attach a file on an email)
The problem I have is that when I create the next button I don't know how to add a _click event to it.
I have a monthly log that I need to keep to track expenses and customers visited. The log is segmented into 12 parts corresponding with each month.
I need to be able to add multiple lines via an input box while maintaining the formulas and formatting of the 2 rows directly above the forms command button (because both lines are filled with a different color) but not the contents?
There will be 12 command buttons in all and the new rows should be added at the bottom (directly above where the button is)
I found this and it works to some extent.
Sub FromFormsCommandBar2()
Dim Btn As Button
with ActiveSheet
Set Btn = .Buttons(application.caller)
btn.topleftcell.entirerow.insert
end with
End Sub
I have built a Form which displays data from a spreadsheet. The user opens the form by clicking on a command button from the spreadsheet. The Form initially opens with the data from Row 4 of the spreadsheet (because this is the first row of the spreadsheet which contains the data for the form). The user can then sequentially access other rows in the spreadsheet by clicking on buttons in the Form which advance the extraction by one row.
I would like to add a command button to each row of the spreadsheet that would open up the Form and set the values in the Form to the same row which the command sits on.
I have spreadsheet with some very basic formulas that work out sale prices based on people entering buy prices. (It works out the % margin). There are certain areas where the user enters the data - and does not touch any other part of the sheet.
What I am trying to do is add a button which will remove the data from these cells. Almost - a start again button or refresh button. This way it will remove previously entered data - without removing formulas from the cells where the calculation happens. So basically there are cells that a user will enter data - and it is these cells I would like to be able to clear with a button or similar without affecting other cells.
I have added a button to asign a macro to but for the life of me cant see how to "activate" the button. I am trying to click the button to make the macro run but it keeps selecting the button like it wont come out of design view.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've made a file with 4 active sheets.
Form - to submit the data of items incl 2 buttons to add the data in 2 sheets and 1 email button wich is active and working.
I would like when the data is been added in the form cells that when by example when i push the button for new assets these data in correct order be placed in the new asset sheet horizontal and in the right column. Not with a pivot table i need to keep the layout of the top line in new asset sheet as it is by procedure.
Same for the asset disposal button and sheet.
My excel version is 2007 and i am on WIN7 64bit
I have a workbook with VBA which was working fine earlier. Lately i have been getting
"Runtime error 1004" Select method of button class failed.
I am adding buttons dynamically in a loop in a sheet and what surprise me is , i go to debug mode when error pops up and it points to below line
MySheet.Buttons.Add(ActiveCell.Left - 5, 25, 20).Select
but my code is running in a loop and i can see that atleast 20 buttons were added and it fails to select when it try to add this iteration. It is completely confusing me.
My entire below code is in a loop
maWrk.Cells(xIt1, yIt2).Select
mySheet.Buttons.Add(ActiveCell.Left - 5, 25, 20).Select
Selection.OnAction = "callMe"
[Code].....
I also notice that when it fails, on select method .. the button was actually added to the sheet with caption/name as "Button 65536" but then fails to select it. What makes the select to fail after adding the button? Could there be anything special with Button 65536?
Is there any better way to code the adding button and setting action and name for excel 2007?
note before entering the loop i am deleting all the shapes with myShape.Delete which name matches "btRun"
I have a macro which I use to do all sorts of routine things on a spreadsheet for my employees. (you guys helped me with that too. thanks)
I would like to add a command button to this sheet to run series of code and I want to add this to the final step of a macro.
Question, is there a series of code, which would
1. create the command button on the active sheet, and
2. add the required code to the command button, and
3. embed that button and code onto the active sheet all at once.
?
I need to do this regularly so it is a currently manual process I am trying to replace.
Ex. of code I want placed:
Rows("1:1").Select
Selection.Font.Bold = True
This is not the exact code which I will use, but it will help me to understand what I would have to do to make it work.
I have a user form with combo boxes. The user selects items from the combo box and when they click the command button the selection is written to the spreadsheet. Each time the button is clicked it adds an item to the sheet making a list of items. I am trying to assign a number to each item when the command button is clicked so I have numbered list. Here is my code so far:
Private Sub cmdbtnAdd_Click()
Dim RowCount As String
'Writes user inputs to Active Worksheet when Add Item Button is clicked.
RowCount = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range
("A1").CurrentRegion.Rows.Count
With Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1")
.Offset(RowCount, 0).Value = ' This is where I have been trying to code in the numbering
.Offset(RowCount, 1).Value = Me.Combobox1
.Offset(RowCount, 2).Value = Me.ComboBox2
End With
End Sub

above is the sheet template we use on a monthly basis. I would to like to use a command button which will run a macro creating a new sheet with the sheet name each month. The idea is to have a text box and a command button,enter the month in the text box and click the button. A sheet for the month to create at end.
I'm adding a command button at run time using excels help code;
Worksheets(newWorksheetName). OLEObjects.Add ClassType:="Forms.CommandButton.1", Link:=False, DisplayAsIcon:=False, Left:=325, Top:=24, Width:=50, Height:=20
I want to change the buttons properties including its caption etc.. I've tried using'
Worksheet(newWorksheetName).OLEObjects("CommandButton1").Caption = "Do"
But i get a run time error. Also, the add method doesn't specify what the button is called, any clues?
