I have a shared spreadsheet that uses a column with a validation list. I want to be able to take the MS Office Username contained in Tools > Options to be put into a cell A1 when changing the value of A2.
I'm trying to insert a worksheet change event using VBA. I have this sample code from here -
http://www.cpearson.com/Excel/vbe.aspx
Sub CreateEventProcedure()
Dim VBProj As VBIDE.VBProject
Dim VBComp As VBIDE.VBComponent
Dim CodeMod As VBIDE.CodeModule
Dim LineNum As Long
Const DQUOTE = """" ' one " character
Set VBProj = ActiveWorkbook.VBProject
Set VBComp = VBProj.VBComponents("ThisWorkbook")
Set CodeMod = VBComp.CodeModule...................
I am populating column D with
=IF($C2="","",VLOOKUP($C2,Name_ID,2,FALSE))
Based on selection in column C populated using a drop down list from a range titled PracticeID. Other named ranges, all on sheet titled Validation, are PracticeName and Name_ID (a 2 column range made up of PracticeName and PracticeID). This works great the first time a selection is made in column C. But, of course, if the user needs to change the selection in column C, the value in column D does not change. Would the cell change event be the appropriate place to place this action?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to write a Worksheet_SelectionChange (ByVal Target As Range) event in module after creating a sheet in VBA? I constantly delete a sheet, then repopulate it with a new one that is empty, but I need to add some code that happens if they should change a particular cell. It worked when I ran it on a worksheet without refreshing, but as soon as I cleared and repopulated the sheet, it was gone. Is there a way to preserve this?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have an Excel macro that pulls an external .txt file from a particular directory on a users computer. The directory is different for each user because of the way the computers are configured, see example below.
Bob's computer:
c:obwork
Jill's computer:
c:jillwork
There is a system variable called %username% on each computer that can be used for navigation in an OS enviroment. So if you were at the command prompt on user's computer and typed cd\%username%work you would be put in the desired directory. Is there a way to leverage this system level variable, %username%, in an Excel macro?
I have the following code, which works perfectly:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim TotalDays As Integer
TotalDays = Range("C65536").End(xlUp).Row + 1
The code points to the next blank cell so the user can input a value. Each time the user enters a value I want to re-run the code so that the colour of the cell changes.
However I also want to perform various calculations on the sheet. However this means the sheet is being changed and so continually repeats my code.
How do I add the following, to my previous code?
Range("E8").Value = Cells(7, 6) * 2.5
I have a thousand names on a column, and I have a several worksheet tabs as locations, such as CA, AZ, TX, and NY.
All names goes to main worksheet, show like this
apitchford 10 100 123
bkishpaugh 9 211 123
blee 14 234 111
cbonny 21 125 412
I need to pull a specific name, example, name = blee, move that name with all data on that row into TX.
I will need to set as automatically, becuase the names add and delete on the main worksheet, and will auto update those tab worksheets. (make sense?)
I have tried INDEX and MATCH, but they keep putting one data in, not all data.

When I hover the mouse over a cell with comments, the status bar displays a message; for example "Cell A12 commented by A satisfied Microsoft Office user".
I only get this message for one column. The cells in all other columns give my first and second name as the author of the cell comment.
Why it is only effecting one column. I have been unable to change the annoying "commented by A satisfied Microsoft Office user" to my own name.
Is there a macro that can do this? I tried two macros I found online, both from a few years back, but neither of them worked.
an event macro to change the font colour of a cell whose value changes as a result of a calculation.
View 9 Replies View RelatedAttached is book in which, when a choice is selected from Drop Down list in ColumnF the macro has to do the need.
When the macro was written it was working well. But when I tried to change it as a Worksheet_SelectionChange event nothing is happenning even though a choice is selected from drop down list.
Basically the situation I have is Sheet2 has many references to cells in Sheet1. Sheet2 is for all intents and purposes a kind of nicely formatted report form, and Sheet1 is the input form.
My ultimate goal is to automatically resize row heights on Sheet2 when cell contents change on Sheet2.
Using a worksheet_change event isn't working I presume because it doesn't see the formula output change as a worksheet change, the worksheet_change is firing only when the input is changed in Sheet1.
how can I capture these formula output changes on Sheet2 (triggered from input on Sheet1) OR is there a way of making a particular sheets rows always adjust in height to best fit?
Im trying to use an event change to change the sheet name based on a cell value, but my issue is how can I error trap if the sheet name is a duplicate? Here is what I have so far
Sub ChangeName()
On Error GoTo errhandler
Sheets(1).Name = Sheets(1).range("d10")
Exit Sub
errhandler:
MsgBox "sheet name is already exists"
End Sub
I have a macro set up to automatically fill all of the cells in certain columns with the top cell's formula in that column. This is so I don't have to go through and manually "fill down" the formulas into the blank cells after I insert a row into my database. The problems is, though, that the macro sometimes takes a long a** time to run (and uses up a TON of memory...the doc. was 29,000 kb at one point!) because of the amount of rows & columns I have (approx. 5000 row & 34 columns) just one one sheet.
Anyway, is there a way to set up something in VBA to have it auto fill in the formulas in the columns I choose, after I insert a row, with the information that preceeds it?
So, for example, if I insert a row anywhere in my database, excel will know right away that I want that row filled w/ the formulas from the row above it.
I have a simple bit of code that fires some code when it detects a change in cell $P$5 but it doesnt work and I cannot understand why - can anyone assist with this one? I am very green but keen:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$p$5" Then
Range("D9:D81"). AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="<>"
End If
End Sub
I have found this sales forecasting template from the Microsoft excel template section on the web, however, when i insert the new rows, it does not automatically update the "linked" sheets. It is the "detailed sales pipleline management sheet".

I have a user input box (VBA) with two columns of data entry. The leftmost column has text boxes labeled color1, color2, color3, etc.. The rightmost column has text boxes labeled tag1, tag2, tag3, etc..
I have the TAB sequence set to go from color1 to tag1, color2 to tag2, color3to tag3, etc..
A user can inadvertently tab over the color1 (or color2, etc. columns) into the tag1 (or tag 2, etc. columns) column without entering data in the color column.
Is there coding to allow a TAB key entry to be a Change Event such that, if a user TABS out of color1 without entering data, a MsgBox could signal that they must enter data in the color1 field before they can continue?
Alternately, can you suggest a different approach? The goal is to require an entry in the leftmost column (color1) before they can proceed to the tag1 field. Of course, they are given a "Cancel" option.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've been searching all over and can not figure this out as from my limited knowledge it should work. I have two sheets (A & B) and on Sheet A an employee inputs a job number into column B and what I then want to happen is have column D populate automatically with the clients address. This client address is located in Sheet B. I figured the best way to do this was to use a combination of the 'Change Event' method and VLookup utilising a bit of VBA, but I just cant get it to work - I keep getting a #Name? error.
View 5 Replies View RelatedIn a Worksheet On Change event I am trying to obtain a new value that the user has placed into a particular cell.
However, when I get to the line of code that reads the value in that particular cell, it is pulling the value that was in the cell prior to the change. When I view the sheet I can see the new value. When I do a debug.print or ? in the Immediate Window it shows the prior value.
Dim bfr As Long
bfr = ComboBox1.Value
ComboBox1.Value = bfr: Exit Sub
how come this gives me a "cant change property" error!?
The code is inside my combobox change event...
trying to get a worksheet change event to work. Basically the code below calls the time_start procedure when cell J16 downwards is selected.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Row > 15 And Target.Column = 10 Then
Call time_start
Else
End If
End Sub
However, I am lost from here on....Let me try and explain what it is I am trying to do. This seems so simple if you know how. Each time that the word "Completed" is entered in to a cell from J16 onwards, the cell two columns to the right on the same row is selected and the current date is entered.
If the word "Completed" is deleted, I want the date on that row to be deleted.
I would also like the choices "Completed" and a blank cell to be given in a validation list via a dropdown if possible to avoid occurances of "Complete" etc and mis-spellings but I understand that a bug may stop me from using this functionality. I am running Excel 2002 on a Windows XP Professional OS.
I was wondering what I can add so this will not error when I delete the contents of the target range,
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range) If Not Intersect(Target, Range("C11:C29, E11:E29")) Is Nothing Then
If Target.Cells.CountLarge > 2 Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
Target.Value = UCase(Target)
end sub
I have a userform with a text box.
The text box has a change event associated with it Depending on the circumstance I want to disable the change event for this textbox.
