Automate Macro Start On Time & Stop At Later Time
Can I adapt this code so that users receive the alert if they try and go to the next field without filling in the required ones, or - better - to combine it with a code that does not run a macro, but instead gives the alert, if the required fields have been missed. (I don't require anything to do with printing, this was the closest code I could find)
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
If Sheet1. Range("A1").Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Cannot print until required cells have been completed!"
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub

Display End Time Automatically Upon Entering Start Time And Time Usage
I have a worksheet which contains START TIME in column A, then TIME USAGE in column B and END TIME in column C. User enters start time, followed by the number of time usage in minutes, how could i possibly display the end time automatically in this scenario? how do you add the entered time usage to the start time to display the end time? Say if I enter 1:00 AM at start time and 00:15 minutes on time usage, how can 1:15 AM be displayed on the end time automatically?

Start/Stop Timer For Hours Worked To Include Break Time
I have a timesheet where user updates start and end time for various tasks. I have placed a time capture button in the excel sheet (which is simply a macro saying =now() function) The user clicks it before starting and after finishing the task. The start and end times are captured in adjacent cells. If the user starts the work, and goes on a lunch break say for 20 min, comes back finishes the task and captures end time, the time difference will not consider break time which is non productive. How can I incorporate something like 'pause' option so that before he goes for lunch he can temporarily pause the time.

Add This Number To The Start Time, Factor In Break Minutes And Get To The Projected Completion Time
I am trying to provide a tool for department leaders to monitor productivity for order processing in their departments. The variables I have are: Number of orders(variable), number of pickers (variable), start time(variable). Then, I know each order takes 1 picker 4 minutes to pick on average, and there are 45 minutes worth of breaks during the picking process. So after entering the variables I used =(((C3*4)/60)/D3) to come up with the time needed to process the orders. What I can't get to is how to add this number to the start time, factor in break minutes and get to the projected completion time. I have Excel 2003 at work. Clearly I need to take a class!

To Calculate The Difference Between The Start Time And End Time
This may be a bit vague but here goes. I have to calculate the difference between the start time and end time of a job. The only catch is, how can I avoid calculating "out of hours" time. So, if a job goes from 9am to 9am the next day, I want it to avoid calculating between the hours of 23:30 and 03:30. Another example is if a job goes from 02:00 to 04:00, I want it to avoid the tim between 02:00 and 03:00. If there is a difference in days, so the job goes overnight, how do I take that into consideration also.

End Time To Be Greater Than Start Time
I have four different times on my report, enroute, on scene, clear of scene, in service. I need to make sure that the user's input for each time is < or = the previous time. Also I would like for my time to show in 24 hr format. Do I need to change my clock or can I do it without changing the clock format. users will use the CTRL +SHIFT+: to insert the current time

Stop Macro Running After Specfied Time Period
I'm opening a workbook and then running the macro in the workbook. The problem is I would like to build a "timeout" feature if the macro is running too long (as some of the macro's this will run can take days to complete) but I don't know how to run the macro asynchronously. Also I need to know if i can get it to run asynchronous is there an event that will tell me when the process is finished. The calling application of the macro is written in VB6 and opening excel workbooks to run the macros out of. also the "timeout" feature must be done from the VB6 application it cannot be edited into the the workbooks containing the macro.

Can't Stop Macro Running At Set Time
I wanted to run a macro at 08:00 each day. I tested the macro would auto start and run, and set the test to start at 13:00. In the Private module of the Workbook I put Private Sub Workbook_Open() Application .OnTime TimeValue("08:00:00"), "MyMacro" End Sub and in a standard module Sub TestTimeMacro() Application.OnTime TimeValue("08:00:00"), "MyMacro" End Sub Initially I had the TimeValue set as 13:00:00. The test worked OK so I changed the timevalue to 08:00:00. The macro now runs at 08:00 and 13:00. How do I stop the 13:00 event?

Time Automate Macros
I have a sheet which needs to run a macro only if certain selected cells are TRUE. The TRUE cell indicates that my colleagues have updated their spread sheet. So then i can go run my macro. But i would like to automate this process. What code would I need to Automate If cell a1 = TRUE run macro? and IF cell A! does not = TRUE do nothing? Bearing in mind this will be all run with Reuters in the background.(which is VERY annoying)

Display The Macro Start/stop Recording
How can I make XL (2000) display the macro start/stop recording and relative/absolute box that used to appear whenever I started recording a macro? Such an apparently simple issue, but I can't resolve it! Somehow I lost this small box, and I know how to force it to display via customize, but it doesn’t seem to work the same (relative does not work as such) and the buttons or box disappear.

Automate Time & Date Insertion Upon Cell Selection
I have a Workbook with about 20 Worksheets, for each sheet I have a Selection Change Event that simply performs the Following: MainSheet1. Range(“Z1”) = Now 1 Cell on every Sheet then is pointed to this cell via =Main!Z1. Problem is that when this is preformed Each Row from the Other In-Active Sheets and sometimes a near-by Button will Appear on my Active Sheet. I cannot select the parts of the sheets that appear and when I scroll down till they are out of view and then scroll back up they are gone until I select another cell and it happens again. I have tried in the Z1 cell to just put =NOW() and Make Calculations Manual and then with the selection change to call MainSheet1.Calculate or Workbook.Calculate but this has the very same effect and the other sheets bleed onto or ghost onto my Active Sheet. So far the only way I’ve been able to get around this is: If Application. ScreenUpdating Then Application.ScreenUpdating = False MainSheet1.Range(“Z1”) = Now Application.ScreenUpdating = True Else MainSheet1.Range(“Z1”) = Now End If...............

Run-time Error Every Other Time The Macro Runs
I'm not sure why this is happening, but every other time I run this one specific macro, I get a "Run-time error '1004': Paste method of Worksheet class failed". I even tried running this macro, then running a different one, then running this again, but I still got the error every other time. Every time I get the error, it highlights this line of Sheets("Regenerate Request").Paste This is all of the code up to where I get the error: Sub YesRegen() ' after user has hit Yes on the RegenerateRequest macro, this posts the new request to ' the log, generates the new file and attaches it to an email Application.Run "LogUnprotect" Range(Range("A" & ActiveCell.Row), Range("K" & ActiveCell.Row)).Copy 'Selection.Copy Sheets("Regenerate Request").Activate Application.Run "RegenFormUnprotect" Range("A40:K40").Select Range("A40").Activate Sheets("Regenerate Request").Paste

Calculating Hours With Midnight As A Start Time
I’m working on a timesheet and I need to separate the hours worked that are before 6 am from all the others. For example if someone works 1:00 am to 8:00 am I need a cell to populated with 5 representing the hours worked before 6 am. The formula below works fine except when the start time is 12:00 am. I am also having trouble if the start time is before midnight like in a 11pm to 5 am shift. =(IF(AND(S3<=$AG$97,S3>=$AG$73),(($AG$97-S3))*24,0)) S3 is the start time AG97 is 6:00 am AG73 is 12:00 am

Calculate Future Dates From Start Date With Varying Time Period/cycle
I need to determine a formula which will allow me to calculate a future date based upon a current date with varying time periods. For example: I have a bill which is paid on the 15th and last business day of each month. I would like to be able to see the next due date regardless of what day of the week it is. I have a bill which is paid every other Tuesday. I would like to know the next due date without having to enter +14 for every due date in the future. In other words, it is preferable to be able to open the spreadsheet and automatically see the next due date, not use autofill to repeatedly add +14 to a previous date which would limit the # of future due dates that could be calculated. I have a bill which is paid on the last business day of each month, not the last Friday of each month. I would need excel to return a value for the last day of the month which = Monday-Friday, regardless of what day of the week it may be as long as it isn't Saturday or Sunday(holiday exclusion would be nice but not required).

Operational Model - Shift Start Time Plus Amount Of Hours Worked In One Cell.
Is it possible that a cell contains both numeric and alphanumeric data and to do calculations on that? For example: if a cell conatain the value "10a" or "8.5b" etc. Would it be possible to have a column that gives me the hours worked (the numeric value in the cell) and a line that gives me the amount of people that are working on shift "a" (the alphanumeric value in the cell). Is this at all possible? Or does that require VBA/Macros and stuff (in which case this is posted in the wrong part of the forum )

Start And Stop Timestamp
I've seen a lot of timestamp solutions but none of them fit my needs. Also my VBE skills are not good enough to create this. So here's the problem: I've got 3 columns E,F en H. H contains a validation list with 3 options OK, NOK and OPEN. If H is NOK I would like E and F to be blank. If H is OPEN I would like E to contain a start date wich doesn't update. If H is OK I would like F to contain an end date wich doesn't update.

Make 2 Buttons - One Says START, One Says STOP
I have a spreadsheet that has worksheet_calculate and also worksheet_changes, its a combination of the 2... and it's purpose is to make a record of the number every time it changes by populating it into the next row, so I end up having a very long data list and what happens is that my spreadsheet has real-time data coming into one cell which makes it constantly changing.... needless to say, when my spreadsheet is opened, it starts to do it immediately...and it wont stop as long as the number keeps on changing. I would like to make 2 buttons - one says START, one says STOP and when I click on START, then it will start making record of this number and when I click STOP, then it stops recording the changes of this number.

Automatically Change Cell (With Time) Color After Time Period Has Passed
I have a protected worksheet. Users wish to be able to track changes in the input cells. The suggested approach for this is to temporarily disable sheet protection and allow them to change the font color, then protect afterwards. What I would like to do is: i) check whether they are in an input cell ii) if so, then prompt the user with the 'Font Color' dialog box iii) apply the font color selected to the input cell I'm struggling to find the dialog box I need. I can launch the one to change the interior color, no problem (Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPatterns).Show). But that's no use to me, I just want a color palette that specifically relates to the Font Color

Count Number Of Full Time Periods Within A Time Period
I have thousands of timestamps that have a start & end date and time in 2 separate columns. (one named start and one named end...) I also have numerous set time periods that i'm interested in.. (about a dozen or so) for example 01/01/2008 - 05/01/2008, 07:30:00 - 10:00:00 What i need is to be able to count the number of times the full time period i am interested (07:30:00 - 10:00:00) in falls in between the thousands of start and end timestamps i have. The time periods must also fall within the date range specifed. So if my timestamps were Start: 01/01/2008 06:30:00 & End: 02/01/2008 11:00:00, based on the set time period above, there would be a count of 2 and if my timestamps were Start: 01/01/2008 07:05:00 & End: 02/01/2008 09:00:00 there would be a count of zero as there is not a full uninterupted timeperiod 07:00:00 - 10:00:00 between these timestamps. and if my timestamps were: Start 01/01/2007 07:00:00 & End 02/01/2007 10:00:00 the count would be zer as this is a year early!

Delete Date & Time Cells Based On Time
I have a large dataset where the first column is date and time i.e. "20/01/2005 03:41:06" and I want to delete certain rows based on the times. I have already tried playing about with macro's but failed fairly spectacularly so far. I have code from someone else to delete cells if the value equals a certain time but this doesn't work as the cell contains the date too. I have already recorded one macro to reformat the data to as the software return 10 timestamped samples per hour and I want 8 i.e. every three hours so there is constant separation for statistical purposes. Both the macros are shown below so you can see what I have. Ideally I would like to replace the line - If (r.Cells(n, 1) = TimeValue("22:41:06")) ............ - with one that reads - If (r.Cells(n, 1) CONTAINS TimeValue........ - but I don't know if that is possible? If not is there a way to separate the time from the date into 2 columns and then I can delete rows based on the time column using the code below? .......

Changing Calendar Start And Stop Dates

I need to group data using a pivot table and summarize data by month, but as I just described above, calendar months will not work. Is there a way to modify what Excel sees as monthly dates?

Calculating Time Owed Based On Time Worked
I know the title is a bit vague, but I cant think how else to word it! I have a sheet (attached) which works out hours worked, and if the amount is under a specified target, it counts how much time is owed. The problem occurs when someone works more hours than the specified target. I guess I need an IF formula of some kind, to say if the figure is over the target, to put zero in the hours owed column.

Calculate Processing Time With Fixed Time Paramaters
I am wanting to calculate the the processing time for an order that takes place within normal business hours and workweek. A normal day is from 8:00 to 5:00 If a task is started at 2:00 PM Monday and finished at 10:00 AM Tuesday then the result should be 5 hours as I do not want to include any time outside of normal hours. I can figure out how to subtract dates and times but not how to bridge a day(s). My data is somewhat flexible as I have not started the project yet. I can use separate cells for the times and dates or have two cells that use both incorporate the date and time (8/27/09 2:00 PM) for start and end time or any other idea.

Adding A Time Offset Based On Time Of Day
I am replicating a Matlab program which calculates tide levels at different times of day. I need to replicate it in excel to speed up data analysis and I am nearly there. what happens is I need to apply a time offset to the time of high tide at port a based on the time of day, so if it is: between 00:00 and 06:00 the high tide at port b is 81.6 minutes after the peak at port a between 06:00 and 12:00 the high tide at port b is 74.56 minutes after the peak at port a between 12:00 and 18:00 the high tide at port b is 81.75 minutes after the peak at port a between 06:00 and 12:00 the high tide at port b is 79minutes after the peak at port a I tried this formula, where CO2 has the time/date of the high tide at port a: =IF(CO2<0.75,IF(CO2<0.5,IF(CO2<0.25,CL2+(81.6/(24*60)),CL2+(74.56/24*60)),CL2+(81.75/(24*60))),CL2+(79/(24*60))) The problem is the high tide on 07/01/2005 07:45 is read as 38359.32 rather than 0.32 - is there any easy way to tell excel I'm only interested in the time not the date? I have this spreadsheet setup now to do all the other bits required and i is just the timing that is a problem.
