Is there any way to define a shortcut for an exisiting macro. The reason for this request is that after a lot of struggle I got a VBA code to work (as a macro)... initially I had created an icon and had linked the same to this macro.... However I feel that defining a short-key would be much more productive.
View 2 RepliesI 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.

I have one workbook named "Data Master" with numerous worksheets... all sheets are named with the following 6 digit format, eg. 005001, 005024, 005133, 005456, 005763, etc.
I have another directory with files each beginning with the particular 6 digit cost centre number.
I was hoping to have a macro that will... for each worksheet in "Data Master" check a specified directory containing the cost centre files, for the file beginning with the relevant worksheet's 6 digit cost centre number... and simply paste a copy of the worksheet in "Data Master" to the end of the existing sheets in the cost centre file.

I posted similar yesterday. No one helped...sniff sniff (where's the crying smily)
Now verified to be occur on other machines running various versions of Office 2007...
In Excel 2007, write this simple macro and assign it to a shape:
The sceanrio is that I use vba to create commandbutton and make that commandbutton call a macro
Code:
With ActiveSheet.Buttons.Add(183.75, 38.25, 96.75, 38.25)
.Name = "Test"
.OnAction = "anothermacro"
End With
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Test").Characters.Text = "Test"
This one is a two parter. Part I is a bit of a necessity and Part II is a nice to have that would save me a boatload of time.
Part I: I need to assign a macro to a specific object in a cell. I've seen the code for targeting a static cell, but my data can be filtered and sorted.
For example, I have a cell in I6 that has text "Partial Deployment" that I want to run a macro on. If I were to sort alphbetically, this cell could end up as I20.
How to assign a macro to the text inside the cell? Also the text is not unique.
Part II: I would like to write a macro using relative referencing for similar to the below:
When user clicks on said object from Part I, the macro reads the corresponding column in that same row and users that to filter data on a separate spreadsheet.
Example: User selects "Partial Deployment" in cell I6, the macro references cell E6, copies the number "191", and uses that number to filter data on a separate spreadsheet.
i have created a very simple macro and wish to assign it to a command button i have placed on my worksheet.
View 9 Replies View RelatedUsing workbook A, I have created a new workbook (let's call it workbook B), and have copied a module over to workbook B using macros.
My question is, is there a way to assign the module to a command button using vba?
i wrote the program and created a button on the toolbar. what i did not know was other people outside of my location will be using this program. so when they get the file, they will have to reassign the macro to the button since the file location will be different. i have already written instructions with screen shots in case the boss wants to go that way. i would like to do this with code. they would run another program which would get the path and name of the file and assign it to the macr.

I have the following problem with a macro in excel. i wrote it, the macro runs very good from excel /tool/macro/macros/run, i also put a button on toolbar -it works too, i want to assign a keyboard shortcut from tool/macro/macros/options / shortcut and THE MACRO RUN INCOMPLETELY (stops running ).
Actually the macro opens all files in a specific folder, and delete their codes as follows:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got a macro that I can rund when I click on a shape. It's called "Shape_Click".
Basically, I want this macro to be automatically assigned to any shape I create, as I create it.

I can apply that to a shape by selecting it and manually running this macro:

How do I get the subroutine to run as soon as the new shape has been selected, rather than haviong to manually run it.
Something like "Sub Worksheet_ShapeAdded" or something like that? I can't work it out.
I have a workbook that has 2 similar worksheets. One called "Wood Shafts" and the other called "Iron Shafts" I have the macros worked out for the sheet called "Wood Shafts" and I just realised I need to apply similar Macros to the sheet called "Iron Shafts" (same functions but different values from different columns). Some how I need the code to be able to tell the difference between the two sheets. I am at a loss.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have written the code below. And I found two problems:
1.The code stopped to work when I change from Paste to PasteSpecial.
Sub Copyfriction()
Dim DestWB As Workbook: Set DestWB = ActiveWorkbook
Dim DestWS As Worksheet: Set DestWS = ActiveSheet
Dim DestCLL As Range: Set DestCLL = ActiveCell
Dim UserChoice
UserChoice = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="Text Files (*.xls),*.xls")
[Code] ........
2.As you see the right cell on the the destination sheet need to be selected. So Im planing to run the macro when double clicking the cell in question. I have tried the next
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
If Target.Address = "$A$6" Then
Copyfriction
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
However, I have not been able to find a solution. I created 2 macros that work using the alt+F8 and enter option as well as the run from the macros menu method. Whenever I try to use the keyboard short cut eg. Ctrl+e it will either not do anything or pause and then select every cell. The codes are below:
Sub Macro5()

' Macro5 Macro

I have tried multiple letter options and have also tried many macros in a new workbook and I cannot get it to run with the keyboard shortcut.
Could some one amend the VBA below to allow a continous loop on moving to the previous sheet within a workbook. Currently when I move to the first sheet if I use the shortcut key I get a debug error.

I recorded one that does a very simple task, converts formulas to values. I saved it in my personal workbook, all is well. I noticed that excel names them Module1, Module2 etc. I thought it would be better to name them, so in the properties window next to "name" i changed Module1 to ConvertFormulas.
However, when i go to a worksheet, the keyboard shortcut no longer works. Reverting back to the old name Module1 solves this. Clicking Tools -> Macro -> Macros, selecting ConvertFormulas and then Options and modifying the shortcut.
