Auto Close Workbook After Showing Form For 30 Seconds

Mar 24, 2007

I have the following code that displays a form at a user defined time and if the user does not press "Stop" then the workbook saves and closes. The user can press stop then the workbook remains open.

Here is what I have where:
Admin_Auto_Shutdown = Yes or No
Admin_Auto_Shutdown_Time = 3:34pm or user defined time (This doesn't seem to work??)

'Auto Shutdown CloseandSave
If UCase(wb.Worksheets("Admin"). Range("Admin_Auto_Shutdown").Value) = "YES" Then
Application .OnTime TimeValue("Admin_Auto_Shutdown_Time"), "AutoShutdown"
End If

Sub AutoShutdown()

Application.OnTime TimeValue("Admin_Auto_Shutdown_Time"), "AutoShutdown"

Auto_Shutdown_Form.Show

End Sub

Now, my question is about a timer that I can show on a form. When the form is displayed I would like to give the user 30 seconds to press stop (and keep the workbook open) or to press proceed and save and close or to not do anything and the workbook would close and save when the timer reaches zero.

Code for user form which is missing most everything...

Private Sub Halt_Click()
'If user whats to continue without closing
Auto_Shutdown_Form.Hide
End Sub

Private Sub Proceed_Click()
'If user whats to save and close

Auto_Shutdown_Form.Hide

How do I add a timer to this code where it will run this at the end of the timer?

Auto_Shutdown_Form.Hide

Application.DisplayAlerts = False
With ThisWorkbook
.Saved = True
.Close
End With

Auto Close Workbook And Open Another After Inactivity

Nov 26, 2012

I have a menu workbook with macro buttons that call different workbooks. Call the menu workbook (switchgear.xlsm). Switchgear contains 2 buttons. Button 1 closes switchgear and opens Book1. Button 2 closes switchgear and opens book 2.

If book1 is open and nothing has changed for 3 minutes I would like it to close and open switchgear.xlsm. I do not want it to just close in 3 minutes... I want it to close after 3 minutes of inactivity.

I have search all over and tried and tried to achieve this without success...

I have been able to get the timer to work but it gets caught in a loop. If I open book1 and close it in less than a min then 3 minutes later out of nowhere the code tries to run???

Secondly when this happens I see several book1 vba projects loaded in the editor window???

Auto Close Workbook If Kept Open For More Than 5 Minutes

Dec 21, 2006

I have an excel file stored on a network drive for the purpose of information sharing. (File protected with a password)

But some the guys leave the file open for quiet long time and hence I cannot open the file for updating the data.

-I need to have a macro that runs every 5 minutes and displays an alert message saying "Please close the File" as long as the file is kept open.

-A second macro with a modified version of the above to close the file automatically after 5 minutes from file opening time after showing an alert message "You cannot leave the File Open, File is Closed Automatically!"

Execute A Data Download Every Ten Seconds Until There Is A Value In C11 And Then Send An Email And Close

Nov 13, 2008

All this macro is supposed to do is execute a data download every ten seconds until there is a value in C11 and then send an email and close.

What seems to be happening is that it downloads, emails, closes... but then in ten seconds the sheet reappears and does it all again.

Convert Value In Form Of HH:MM:SS.111 To Just Seconds?

Feb 28, 2014

I have a value of 0:01:20.555 in a cell in the form of hh.mm.ss.111 and I want to get the adjacent cell to display that value in just seconds (ss.11 to be precise).

So say for example I used 0:01:20.555 (1 minute and 20.555 seconds). So the 1 minute is 60 seconds, so overall the time in seconds would be 80.55 (I need to round off to 2 decimal places instead of the previous 3).

Examples:
0:01:20.555 becomes 80.55.
01:00:00.000 becomes 3600.
0:02:01.111 becomes 121.11

How this can be done for a whole set of data

However, If i open the spreadsheet and don't run a filter when I go to close it debugs as alldata is already shown.

Any work around to keep the existing code working but to not error if all data is shown?

Compile Error On Close Of Excel 2003 But Not On Close Of Workbook

Mar 22, 2012

I am using Excel 2003.

It’s been working perfectly up until around an hour ago. However, now when I close Excel, I get compile errors.

These compile errors seem to be because Excel is trying to access controls in the workbook after it has closed. Since the workbook is closed, VBA can no longer ‘see’ the controls, and therefore it thows up errors.

I’m also getting a similar error on a Worksheets("DataExplorer").unprotect line, which seems to be because the worksheet isn’t there after closing.

These errors only occur when I close the whole excel application using the big cross in the top right. If I just close the workbook (using the smaller cross just below the big cross in the top right of excel), it doesn’t throw up these errors.

Just to clarify: all of the code runs perfectly when Excel is open. The errors are being thrown up for lines of code which run without problem until Excel is closed.

Auto-Populate Order Form From Storeroom Count Form

Jun 17, 2014

I have a spreadsheet I use to keep track of weekly sales patterns and use for estimating the amount of a product I would need to order taking into account what I would expect to sell in a given week and what stock I have at present. On the example I've attached, I show where I enter my storeroom count figures, which are organised by supplier and the position in which a particular product appears on the supplier's order form. I have a page which lists the orders by suppliers and which are used to place the orders by e-mail or telephone.

At present I have each supplier section of the order form directly linked to a cell on the storeroom count as per columns K to M on the attached file. However, this means that as products are de-listed by suppliers and extra products become available, I have to edit the formula in each cell as the products now appear in a different position on the storeroom count and may otherwise end up on the order form for a different supplier. I would like to set it up so that I just have to select the supplier name and the table below will automatically fill with the required info, in order of the position they appear on the supplier's form. I'm struggling to combine vlookup and hlookup. Is there a way to do it or do I need to rethink?

Open Files In Folder- Wait 30 Seconds Then Close The Files

Jul 5, 2007

I want to allow users to place files (.jpg, .tif, .pdf, .pps etc) into a network folder and then have my program open each file and display it for 30 seconds then close the file and the application before opening the next file.

1. Set up a loop to get a directory listing of the folder and write the listing to a text file.

2. Open up the text file and get the next filename in it

3. Open the file in the associated application

4. Wait for 30 seconds (or some period of time) and then close the file

5. Repeat steps 2-4

DoIt = 1
While DoIt = 1
Open "C:TempList.txt" for output as #1
Print #1, Files In Folder
Close #1

Open "C:TempList.txt" for input as #2
while not eof(2)
Line input #2, MyFile
Display MyFile on screen
Wait for 30 seconds
Close MyFile and MyApplication that opened it
wend
Close #2

I can get the directory listing just fine with no problems

I can open the files in the associated application just fine with no problems.

with closing the application after 30 seconds or some period of time.

I need some code that will allow me to easily send it a filename and it will know how to close the file and the application that opened it.

Open Only The User Form ... Or Close Everything

Mar 22, 2006

Assume that the workbook Book1.xls opens a user form named myUserForm.

I'm trying to show only the user form on the desktop when I open Book1.xls, with Book1.xls minimized on the Taskbar.

And , if the Cancel button on the form is clicked, then unload the form and close Book1.xls.

That simple!

In ThisWorkbook, I have the event:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
ActiveWindow.WindowState = xlMinimized
ShowTheForm
End Sub
On the Form, I have the Cancel button:

Private Sub btnCancel_Click()
Unload Me
ThisWorkbook.Close True
End Sub

The above procedure shows the form, with Microsoft Excel blank window in the background, and produces a small bar at the bottom left of the screen for Book1.xls
Click the Cancel button, and both the Form and Book1.xls close, but the blank Excel window remain open !

I suppose I would not be able to edit this version of Book1.xls, but that is fine for now!

Auto Close After Print

Nov 12, 2006

I have a spreadsheet and I would like for it to automatically close after printing.

Long version: The sheet is set up with several fields that can be changed by the user, and the date/time are automatically entered upon opening the sheet. I want to ensure that all fields are reset, and the date/time are correctly updated, every time that the user uses the spreadsheet. The last thing the user will do when finished entering his information will be to print the form, so I figure this would be a good time to make the form close (if this is possible).

I have already entered a code to prevent the query "do you want to save changes" before closing. So when they open the spreadsheet it will always contain the same starting information.
