I want a list to be sorted when a user closes the Excel DataForm. I have the code to execute the sort but how do I attach it to the DataForm Close button?
I have a problem on auto-sorting my data after clicking the "x" or "Close" button on DataForm. Im creating a command button that trigger a macro to open an autofill DataForm. I want a code that everytime i ADD or EDIT using the DataForm, it will automatically sort the Column A after clicking the "x" or "Close" button. Below is the code of my macro:
Code:
Sub OpenForm()
Sheets("DATA").Select
ActiveSheet.ShowDataForm
End Sub
I am trying to attach an Excel file to a post. I found the following in FAQ: "To attach a file to a new post, simply click the [Browse] button at the bottom of the post composition page, and locate the file that you want to attach from your local hard drive" But I cannot find the [Browse] button. I should have said "to attach a file" not "to attach a post" in the header.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have two sheets that contain data and I have to switch between them all the time, and I thought I could make it easy by assigning the "switch" to a macro. I am now looking to assign that macro so a single button, like the "`" key. I have tried various pieces of code but none of them worked.I think something like the below may work but I don't know how to start.
[Code]....
If Sheets("Sheet2") is active, then call switch 1, to switch back.
I have a workbook with a large number of worksheets in it. I intend putting the workbook onto a shared network drive so that a number of users can go into their individual named sheet - check some data and confirm that they have checked it.
My initial idea is to attach a command button to each individual sheet so that each user can click on the button to confirm that they have checked their data. What I would like to do is hide a worksheet within the workbook and when each user has checked their data - their button click will insert a tick in the relevant cell of the hidden worksheet e.g.
When User 1 clicks command button on User 1 sheet it will insert a tick in cell B2 of the hidden sheet
When User 2 clicks command button on User 2 sheet it will insert a tick in cell B3 of the hidden sheet
how i might create a macro to attach to a button so i can delete the contents of all VALUE! cells. Either this or have a script in the background so no cell will return VALUE! (or any other error if possible)
I know if i had all the formulae sorted they might not butit's quite a large spreadsheet. The reason for the VALUE! error is text in cells that the formal points.
I have a MS Access db in which I have two delete queries called 'qrySessionsCompleted1' and 'qrySessionsCompleted2'. What VBA code can I use in the BeforeClose event to run these?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make Excel update a cell (C27) in my workbook's front page before closing, but it doesn't run at all.
Debug doesn't show any error...
Actually I am not sure if it's a code error or just the place i put this sub in.
......
Next
MsgBox "All Sheets have been updated"
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Worksheets("Front Page").Activate
If .Offset(27, 3).Value < DateValue(Date) Then
.Offset(27, 3).Value = DateValue(Date)
End Sub
I have a sheet that on open looks at the username and determines which tabs can be seen by that user. If macro's are not enabled, I want the sheet to just display sheet 4.
here is the code I have on open that works fine: -
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
If Environ("username") = "Bob" Then
Sheets("Sheet1").Visible = True
Sheets("Sheet2").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet3").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet4").Visible = False
Else
Sheets("Sheet1").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet2").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet3").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet4").Visible = True
End If
End Sub
I have a Workbook_BeforeClose() function that does not, and I am stuck as to why!
Here it is: -
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose()
If Environ("username") = "Bob" Then
Sheets("Sheet1").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet2").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet3").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet4").Visible = True
ThisWorkbook.Save
Else
Sheets("Sheet1").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet2").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet3").Visible = False
Sheets("Sheet4").Visible = True
End If
End Sub
So basically after "Bob" is done it will save the sheet with only tab 4 visable. This means that if someone without Macros enabled opens the sheet they can only view tab 4 (I know it isn't password protected in this example, but it will be)
I'm using the following code in "ThisWorkbook" of a couple of different workbooks, and the problem occurs consistently with the code use regardless of which workbook...
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
ActiveWorkbook.Close False
End Sub
The code itself does exactly as it should (not save changes when closing), but shortly after the workbook has closed, any other open workbooks will freeze, then give a popup message saying an error has occurred and a log is being generated, and EXCEL shuts down (loosing any other work)...
I have searched my HDD and only found 4 .log files that reference dates that coincide with the errors, although the times don't match(?)...

I had been using;
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
ActiveWorkbook.Save True
End Sub
Which had the same error... when I changed it to Close, I thought it had been fixed, but it was just that the delay is longer before the freeze.
I need to use the BeforeClose event to save the workbook with the same name when a user closes it. (82 users and they all seem to want to give it their own name.) I have the following code in the BeforeClose event but would like to eliminate the prompt "this file already exists, do you want to replace it" I have tried using the Application.DisplayAlerts = False but this seems to stop the workbook from saving.
I have a public demention called wbName and is set to the workbook name in an outo open macro
Public wbName
Public Sub auto_open()
wbName = ActiveWorkbook.Name
UserForm2.Show
MsgBox "PLEASE do Not insert rows/columns or enter calculations" _
& Chr(10) & " " _
& Chr(10) & "Enter Only Account Name, Date, and Corresponding_ Calls/Details", vbCritical, "Caution"
End Sub
I need to know the command to close a workbook. I have used the information found here: http://www.ozgrid.com/VBA/userform-close.htm to disable closing the workbook via the upper right "X", but I need a button that, when clicked, simply closes the workbook instead.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a command button code on a sheet that checks if all the cells in a table have been completed before saving the worksheet. If they're not all complete a userform message box pops up with a reminder then returns to the sheet without saving. I want to be able to call this from the 'BeforeClose' event as well however, even though it still does what it's supposed to do, after the userform message box has displayed and been unloaded then it still pops up the Save Dialog box.
I'm struggling to suppress the Save Dialog box and return to the sheet.
I am trying to ask to the user to check if they logged out when they close the workbook but my code is not working...
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Sheets("OD&D Log-in").Select
If Range("H5") = "reconcile" Then
a = MsgBox("Do you want to Log-Out?", _
vbYesNo)
If a = vbNo Then Cancel = True
If a = vbYes Then
Sheets("OD&D Log-in").Select
Else
Workbooks("Daily OSD Log (ver5).xls").Close SaveChanges = True
End Sub
I'm working on a time sheet, and to make it easier to enter time i created a macro that sets the auto correct to correct a "." to a ":", but when the workbook closes i want to run a macro that deletes the auto correct rule.
I'm trying to create a macro that will save backup copies of documents that have changed when a user closes them. I created an add-in and put a Workbook_BeforeClose sub in "ThisWorkbook" that saves a copy of the document in a temp location on the hard drive.
If I have three Excel documents opened and each one has changes and I close Excel (with the "big red X") it only seems to call the Workbook_BeforeClose once backing up one of the files. If I use the "Close Window" (the "little X") it doesn't call that event at all.
Is there a better event to use or a better way to backup these files when closing them or Excel?
I'm trying to combine 2 sets of code that I have searched other threads for.Both use the OnTime code to trigger events after 5 and 10sec.
My problem is that the workbook won't close correctly and keeps re-opening on the refresh event. I understand both events need to be passed to the dTime variable, but I am obviously doing something wrong. I will include the code as I'm sure its something obvious;
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
On Error Resume Next
Application.OnTime dTime, "Sort", , False
If Cancel = False Then Application.OnTime dTime, "RefreshIt", , False
On Error Goto 0
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Run "RefreshIt"
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:10:00"), "Sort"
End Sub
Public dTime As Date
Sub Sort()
dTime = Time + TimeValue("00:00:10")
Application.OnTime dTime, "Sort"
Range("A6:M10").Select
Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("I6"), Order1:=xlDescending, Header:=xlGuess, _
OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, _
DataOption1:=xlSortNormal
Range("B2").Select
End Sub
Sub RefreshIt()
Sheets("Text").Range("A7:F38").QueryTable.Refresh
dTime = Time + TimeValue("00:00:05")
Application.OnTime dTime, "RefreshIt"
End Sub
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
Is there a way to make a macro fire when you close the VB editor. For example,

I have a User form which had a button which redirects me to a certain sheet, e.g. If I wanted to go to stock sheet I would click cmdViewStock and it would open the stock worksheet meaning it works, but the userform still stays open. Is there a way in which once I click the cmdViewStock it opens the Stock worksheet but closes the userform automatically straight after?
Here is the current code I have for the button:
Code:
Private Sub cmdViewStock_Click()
Sheets("Stock").Select
Sheets("Stock").Range("B4").Select
End Sub
most of the users always like to click the close (x) button on the top right of the userform ... and when that happens the application that was set hidden will remains hidden and other users in the network cannot access it ... eventhough i've placed an exit button inside the userform, users still prefer to click the x button.

I tried the Tool -> Protect -> Check Windows method. But, it will disable the maximize and minimize buttons as well. Moreover, it will minimize the workbook.
Why I receive a 400 error when the 'excel close' button is pressed in the attached sample.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet that has a button named Exit Requisition Program on it to close the application with. When the button is used everything is wonderful. All of the data on the sheet is saved and the application closes. I have a problem with some users clicking the red X without saving changes and that creates a big problem.
What I need to do is any one of several things.
1. Remove the red X completely.
2. Deactivate the red X.
3. Have a message box pop up instructing the user to use the Exit Button when the red X is used. Any one of the three methods listed above would work for me.
I have a useform that loads up with two buttons and I waat to force the user to chose one of the buttons. However, I have noticed that the user can just press the cross in the top right corner of the form to close the window and therefore not press either button.
Is there anyway I can stop the close form button working?
The issue I'm having is with the ActiveX Spin Button (in 2007, formerly in the Control toolbox in 2003). I need the Spin Button to call a certain macro whenever it is clicked up or down. I know how to do this with one spin button, the problem is that the workbook I'm creating could potentially have dozens (or even hundreds) of these spin buttons that all need to call the same macro. It doesn't seem feasible to have to create separate Change event functions for each of these.
My company used to use the simpler form controls for this process, but a situation has come up where we need the ability to make the buttons invisible, or at least appear disabled, and that doesn't seem doable with the form controls.
So my question is, is there a way to specify in my workbook that whenever a spin button is clicked, this particular macro is to be called? Or even, whenever an ActiveX object is clicked, call the macro, because the spin buttons will be the only ActiveX objects in the workbook. I've read a bit about how to create global event handlers for worksheets and workbooks, but I can't find anything related to spin buttons specifically.
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.
