way to get Excel to automatically expand the cell height when the text becomes to long to display. Is there something I am missing that will accomplish this, or do I need to write some VBA that will make the cell larger once the character limit that will fit on one row is exceeded?

However I would like to set the widht of the text box and automatically adjust the height according to the number of lines of text. Is this possible by VBA code or othe means?
Is there a way to get cells in a column to adjust their height automatically, or with a macro to account for text overflow/wrap?
For example, lets say a column is 200 px in width and it's height is enough to view a single line of text, and the column is set to wrap text. Now more text is entered into the cell and it needs to be re-sized to fit two lines of text.
Is there a way to create a macro button to have this done automatically?

The problem I am having is the forms height does not adjust from using the toggle controls only when you select back into the listbox itself.
Private Sub ListBox1_Change()
If Me.ListBox1.Value = 1 Then
Me.Height = 180
End If
If Me.ListBox1.Value = 2 Then
Me.Height = 210
End If
If Me.ListBox1.Value = 3 Then
Me.Height = 240

I have tried using click/after change events however I get the same response. Am I missing something from my code or should I be using another control (SpinButton for instance).

Finding the Column with the MAX Height in comparison with other Columns of UNEVEN Height
I need two things :
1. I have several columns starting from Column B till Column F, each column having values starting from the third ROW.
Ex:-
Lets say Column B contains two values in B3 and B4, Col C three values in C3 C4 and C5, Col D four values D3,D4,D5 and D6, Col E two values in E3 and E4, Column F five values F3,F4,F5,F6 and F7.
So, the answer is F3:F7.
2.I am using 10^{4,3,2,1,0} in a particular portion of a formula, Now the number of elements in the array or in the Curly Braces depends on the number of Columns filled from Column B as explained in the Point 1.
Now, since I have five columns under consideration I have this order as mentioned here {4,3,2,1,0} , I would like to know whether I could make this dynamic, as in if there were only four columns then this would be {3,2,1,0} and if more this array could self-fill and expand..
If that's possible, then how do we use it in the formula, Is it by the virtue of the INDIRECT function?
formula for -- If Text = 1 and Text =-1 adjust running total
example:
1312 (total)
SS1311 (new total)
LA1310 (new total)
LB1309 (new total)
LS1310 (new total)
LS =+1
SS, LA, LB =-1
How Auto Resize (height) cell to fit text? (macros, formulas, setting)? One can make the height of the cell is reset according to the amount of text?

Situation. In a Sheet1:
- each cell in row 1 represents the width of its column (i.e., if D1=3, the width of column D should equal 3),
- each cell in column A represents the height of its row (i.e., if A4=5, the height of row 4 should equal 5).
Question1. I need the widths and heights to adjust automatically every time, when values of corresponding cells change. How could that be accomplished?
Question2. I read that the width/height are measured by number of characters (i.e., if width=3, it means that 3 '0' characters of normal format can fit in that space). Will the values with fractions work correctly (i.e. will width=3.5 correspond to 3.5 '0' characters)?
If no, how to adjust for that?
Note. In the current situation, additional rows and colums will have to be inserted, so the solution should work with new rows and columns as well.
I am trying to get info from a cell/Row of the height just like "=CELL("width",A1)" Only I need Height info returned, is this possible?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm using Office 2007 professional and I'm trying to format a cell (merged cell) so that when you enter text and it goes beyond the size of the designed cell that it will automatically continue and shift the additional text downward, like a paragraph. Also it shift everything below down with it. Is this possible? I have already tried wrap text field and AutoFit row height. This keeps it within the cell but it is not visible or printable once you tab out. I would like to have it continue like in a paragraph. Like a word doc may do. It’s visible and it shifts everything below downward as it grows, which also allows it to be printable.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet set up for my son to roll up D&D characters. There's a combo box to select Race and another for Class of character. What I now need to do is automatically insert the correct set of racial and class bonuses into the relevant squares.
The Combo box points to a list of Races on Sheet 0, in cells A3 to A12. The cell reference for this returns a value between 1 and 10 depending on race selected, i.e. 'Dragonborn' yields a 1, and 'Tiefling' yields a 10. Cells H3 to H12 contain the Strength modifier for the different races.
When I select for example a Dragonborn (1) in the combo box, I want the Strength Modifier cell to pick up the value from cell H3, and if i change the selection to Tiefling (10) I want the strength modifier cell to pick up from (obviously) cell H12
How do I use a variable in the cell reference to adjust the cell data is retrieved from?

I am having a problem with a excel spreadsheet. There are no formulas or anything, just text that I used excel to get everything lined up. I haven't had any issues before, I was copying and pasting within a document. It was all text with different row heights set. I ran into a problem now where the text copies and pastes fine but the row heights aren't coping into the cells I am pasting into, just the text. What do I have to do so they will copy? I don't want to have to go an individually adjust each cell.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet at work . I am tracking the quality target for the department and I need to create a formula that adjust accordingly to the target set for month end which is 90%.
I have build in the foreacasted numbers for the whole month but I need the formula to indicate the minimum error points needed to achieve the target of 90% for month end when I replace the forecasted numbers on a daily basis with actual numbers.
I have attached the spreadsheet which will be clearer.
I have cell C5 value set as 5*B5+3. Now, using vba,I would like to adjust the value of B5 (basically find it), so that the value of C5 is let's say 8.
In this easy example, one can find rapidly the correct value of B5 to be 1.
What I've tried is the following code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Range("B5").Value = -5
Do
Range("B5").Value = Range("B5").Value + 1
Loop Until Range("C5").Value = 8
End Sub
So, I am setting the initial guess for cell B5 and then increasing it by 1. However, if I set the increment to 0.5 instead of 1, program goes crazy and loop doesn't close.
What changes should I introduce to this code, so that even if the increment is 0.001 everything will work.
I have the code below that is two separate activities and I want to change the second activity from a cell trigger (Set KeyCells = Range("K42:AD42")) to a button trigger. I need to first to remain unchanged.
I'd be ok if this was just one macro that I could assign to a button but because its two and I need to write the second's to clicking a button I'm over my head.
Its occured to me while writing this that because it'll be a range of buttons I'll probably need to make each one an individual code? Is this the case? If so I may have to just keep this as it is.
I am using excel 2003. I have copied and pasted text from microsoft word onto excel.
The text is already split up into rows and columns in word. When i past it into excel and select all thousand or so rows and then double click the row to engage the automatic row height it doesnt work. It cuts off the last line or last two lines of the text in most but not all of the cells. What can I do other than one by one change the row height?
I have a spreadsheet in which double clicking on any of the cells in the range A4:C17 changes the contents of cells F4:I33. The following code tells me which is the active cell and then pulls the values for F4:I33 from a lookup table based in this.
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Range("B100") = ActiveCell.Address()
Cancel = True
End Sub
code to stick in this (probably after the third line) that autosizes rows 4 to 33. There are no merged cells involved.
inability to set a default row height and still allow the occasional row that requires more space (i.e., one of it's cells has multiple lines of wrapped text) to AutoFit if necessary.
Say you have the data shown in NormalSettings.png in an Excel file (see attachments) and you want to have a little more room between the shorter rows, but not have them all set as big as the expanded rows. One way to do this in bulk is to select the entire spreadsheet and set a fixed row height, but this chops off any cells that require more space than your default height (see FixedRowHeight20.png). The only way to fix this is to manually scan through your sheet and individually select all rows with cells that need more room than your preferred row height and AutoFit them (good luck if your spreadsheet is any size...) . If you try selecting the entire sheet and choose Format-Row-Autofit, you're back to the crowded display shown in 'NormalSettings.png'.
My workaround to this annoying problem is this: choose a column that you're not using (I just select the very last column in the sheet by holding down CTRL and pressing the right arrow until the screen stops moving) and highlight the entire column by selecting the column header. Then increase the font size for that column...voila, even your blank rows will now AutoFit to the new font size rather than the font size you are using for your data...effectively increasing your default row height without sacrificing AutoFit capabilities. I find that using 16 as a dummy font size makes my data (which is font size 10, Arial) look nicely spaced out, but experiment and try stuff until you find what you like!
Here is my issue...
Column B has a lot of data within different rows
Column A only has Some empty rows, and some rows with content.
The issue is I am having is I am trying to sort the the rows of column A in Alphabetical order, but Iwant to lock the height or merge the rows so that when I sort them I do not end up with empty spaces or them be un-aligned with Column B. This spreadsheet is too long to go and re-format every cell but here is an example:
A ----- B
John
(blank) ----- this column's
(blank) ----- rows are
(blank) ----- merged
David
(blank) ----- this column's
(blank) ----- rows are
(blank) ----- merged
The cells in B are already at the proper height to be alligned with the names.... but if I try to put the names in alphabetical order then nothing will be alligned.
I'm using the macro below to delete a row, which works but is there a way to keep the row heights for the row that is shifting up?
