Automatic Break When Executing Code

Mar 29, 2005

I have finaly completed my project to include all the bells and whistle needed to make an ok task a bit more exciting. However, i am having a problem when the code is executing. It seems to "break" at random points in the process. I am not able to duplicate this error at my home (nor do i want to) and I can not quite figure out what is causing this as it only happens at my work computer. I have tried my coworkers computer and the code executes flawlessly like at my home.

Strangely enough, when the code breaks I am able to hit 'continue' and it continues on its way until the next hiccup. Please assist as this fluke is causing my brain to spiral.

Automatic Page Break

Feb 3, 2010

I have a worksheet where the print area is 16 columns and ~90 rows. have it set to print on one page in page set-up, which generally scales to about 80%, and this has worked fine for years. A couple of months ago I was traveling for work, but got a call that the worksheet was printing each cell as a separate page. My co-worker messed around with it and it seemed to fix when she cleared and reset the print area, and has been working fine ever since.

Today it popped up again. It is setting automatic page breaks every few cells so page 1 is A1:A7, page 2 is A8:A11, etc...Both Print Preview and actually printing a page show me my few cells in the lower right hand corner of the page. Viewing the page break preview shows that they are all automatic page breaks, and if I try to move them I get the error that Microsoft Office Excel cannot move the page break because doing so would reduce the scale below the minimum 10%.

As I mentioned I have it set to "fit to" 1 page high and 1 page wide, which it right now is saying sets the scale to 10%. If I instead choose the scaling to be "adjust to" and set to 100% it only wants to take up 4 pages, but if I try to manually drag the break over afew columns it reverts back to wanting to print every few cells.

Create An Automatic Page Break At Each Value Change In Column A

Mar 18, 2009

I want to create an automatic page break at each value change in Column A, and also a page footer that "restarts" at each change in the same column.
For example, I would like a "Page x of y" footer, but I don't want "Page 1 of 3,500", I want "Page 1 of 3", etc...every time that Column A value changes.

Automatic Finish Date & Time With Lunch Break And Bank Holidays

Feb 13, 2010

I would like a solution for the automatic calculation of the end date and end time for project tasks. I have already spent hours on the issue, thanks for any help on this.

The parameters are:
A1 = Start time 08:00
B1 = End Time 17:00
A2 = break lunch 12:00
B2 = back from lunch 13:00

Task parameters

A5 = start date 01/03/10 (entered manually)
B5 = start time 10:00 (entered manually)
C5 = duration 02:00 (hrs entered manually)
D5 = "end date" >>> (to be calculated exluding breaks and holidays)
E5 = "end time" >>> (to be calculated exluding breaks and holidays)

the next line should be filled in automaitically according to the hours needed and the previous end date & time

A6 = "start date" >>> (after line 5: to be calculated exluding breaks and holidays)
B6 = "start time" (after line 5: to be calculated exluding breaks and holidays)
C6 = duration 14:00 (entered manually)
D6 = "end date" >>> (to be calculated exluding breaks and holidays)
E6 = "end time" >>> (to be calculated exluding breaks and holidays)

and so on for every new line down.

Executing Code In Different Sheets

Apr 2, 2008

I have a workbook with several worksheets. The numbers entered by the user in the cells C7:C9 of sheet "A" will be used to calculate some values in sheet "A" as well as in sheet "B".

Calculations on both sheets involve macros: macro "scale" on sheet "A" and macro "sort" on sheet "B".

I used this code to execute macro "scale" on sheet "A" triggered by the Worksheet_Change function:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("C7:C9")) Is Nothing Then
Exit Sub
Else
scale
End If
End Sub

now, I want to execute macro "sort" on sheet "B" practically at the same time (with the same worksheet_change condition for sheet "A")

All off my attempts resulted in running "sort" in sheet "A" which is not what I want. I couldn't get it to execute the macro in the other worksheet.
Already tried "With Worksheet("B") and "Dim ws As Worksheet, Set ws = Worksheets("B") - no luck...

Executing Checkboxclick With Code

Mar 21, 2007

I have a series of checkboxes that I would like to select/deselect on mass, without having to manually click them individually...

Each of the CheckBox_Click routines change the visibility properties of images.

Changing the CheckBox value with code (true/false)

CheckBox.value = True

will alter the checkbox, but not execute its code...
And

Run "CheckBox_Click"

did not do it either.

How do I simulate the clicking of the CheckBox, with code?

Auto Shutdown Code Not Executing

Nov 20, 2007

I have a workbook which autosaves and closes if no data is input for 10 minutes. It resides on a drive accessable by all our team and is set so that only one person can have read/ wrote access at a time. It tests for read only, shuts down if it is and saves and shuts down if not.

I have noticed that it doesn't work if the workbook is waiting for input.

I.e. someone starts to enter text, or something, in a cell, then goes off to make a coffee or whatever leaving the entry cursor sitting there blinking. It will not shut down after the ten minutes with no input.

Vba Executing Text Strings As Code

Apr 5, 2007

if I can send text to a macro and have VBA treat the text as a line of code?

Suppose in a worksheet in cell A1 there is the following "text"
msgbox "hi there"

can you get vba to do the following:

Sub runtext()
Mytext = sheets(1).range("a1").text
XXXXXX Mytext
End Sub

where "XXXXXX" is a method or command that will cuase vba to evaluate the text string and run it as a line of code (returning a message box saying "hi there")

I don't want to send variables/objects to an existing method in VBA - I want to send the method to VBA....

Finding Item In Array Then Executing Code?

Apr 25, 2014

I am trying to find an item within an array and then VBA could execute code.

Here is an example:

[Code]....

LookupItems =("text", "value", "book") or should I acutally be using Split("text,value,book",",")

For Each sht in ThisWorkbook
If sht.name = array(LookupItems) Then.....execute code

[Code] ....

So basically in this example I want to loop through all the sheet names in the workbook and if any of the names in the arrary are found it will execute the code for those particular sheet names.

I know alternatives are the select case or write an if statement for each value I am looking up or even use an OR for each value to lookup; but I just wanted to see if this method was even possible as it would be less coding.

Check Users Permissions Before Executing Code

Apr 13, 2011

I have a file I created which works fine for me, on my machine at least but there are two issues I'm trying to sort out.

The first issue is I need to share the file with others who may not have the same access rights. I have something loading in the Workbook_Open event which I want to bypass for users who do not have access to a specific folder. So I was trying to check their access using Dir(path) = "" at the top level folder to see if any files are present (which there are). My assumption was that if it finds files it's safe to assume they have permission and it's ok to continue, otherwise they don't in which case I want abort the rest of the code. This seems to work fine for me but I tried testing with someone I know does not have access and it gave her a compile error.

Part of the code in macro utilizes FileSystemObject which seems to be the line where the code bombs on my coworkers machine. The FSO seems related to appears related to the Microsoft Scripting Runtime reference, but it's not enabled on my machine or any of the others. I vaguely remember having to do something on my machine awhile back for the life of me don't remember what it was.

The second issue is an MS Forms error: "Could not load some objects because they are not available on this machine." appears when opening the file on three of the machines I tested but it does not appear on my machine. I've tried looking at the references and could not find any differences between the machines. I pored through various postings online and it appears it might be worth re-registering the DLL/OCX files but we need admin rights to do that so I will need to open a request with our support team.

How To Avoid Displaying Movement Across Sheets While Executing VBA Code

Feb 5, 2014

I have written a vba code which does some calculation on the data on sheet 1 and then puts this data on sheet3 and after the calculation is done it puts the result on a few comboboxes on sheet2. Now the issue is while this whole calculation is performed by excel, I can see the movement in between the sheets. I want to avoid seeing this movement ?

Is it because of multiple Sheet.Select statements inside the vba code ?

Prevent Code Loop Interruption By Esc Or Ctrl+Break Keys

The code itself functions as desired however i am getting the vba message "code execution has been interupted". However if i comment out the line

ActiveSheet. Range("Y6:BC6").Delete Shift:=xlUp. Then all is well - so i'd say that is the culprit.

Sub Test()
If Left(ActiveSheet.Name, 5) = "query" Then
Dim intRow As Integer
intRow = ActiveSheet.Range("Y4").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Row

If intRow > 25 Then
ActiveSheet.Range("Y6:BC6").Delete Shift:=xlUp
intRow = intRow - 1
Else
End If
' Runner 1
ActiveSheet.Range("Y" & intRow).Value = ActiveSheet.Range("A5").Value
ActiveSheet.Range("Z" & intRow).Value = ActiveSheet.Range("M4").Value...................

Automatic Update In Other Sheets: Need Some Changes To The Existing Code

Aug 29, 2008

I have already got an anwer for this long back from this site. The code was writted by Mr. Krishnakumar
the thread is here :[url]

i need some changes to be made in this code. The existing code creates and updates the details in the sheets automatically from the master data. I just need the sum of Column I in all the sheets after the last row of Column I.

selecting all the sheets and typing the formula in I column is not possible because, the last row in Column I is different in all the sheets.
In sheet 1, the last row of Column I is Row 15, in sheet 2 Row150 is the last row.
I guess something could be done in macros.

follwing is the existing
Sub TestIt()
Dim sWS As Worksheet
Dim Sellers As Range, Seller As Range
Dim lRow As Long, fRow As Integer
Dim CopyRng As Range, ws As Worksheet

Executing Sub Within A Sub

Jul 17, 2008

I have a combobox which is used to select data (stock symbol) from a list. Following selection of the stock symbol, a VBA routine is invoked from a radio button which accesses the internet to get data for the selected stock. Currently, this is a two step operation. I tried to cut out the need to click on the download button by calling the GetData sub inside the combobox sub as shown in the code below.

Page Break By Asking The Input File For Page Break To Be Done

Dec 9, 2008

The code which you provided works fine no problem for a page break. I need to run the macro for the page break by asking the input file for page break to be done.

For Example, If excel filename "A" contain the code which you have given need to ask to input the filename "B" and process need to be done in file "B".

I have added some code to your code which you provided but it gives error message "1004" "Method 'Range' of object '_Application' failed" at following line :

Set rng = oExcel.Range(Cells(2, 2), Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp))

Error Trap Always Executing

May 22, 2009

The error trap does work when there is an error, but it also runs at the end of the code when there isn't an error... I'm not sure what I've done wrong. When I test with data that is correct, it still runs through the code when it gets to the bottom. Have I put the error trap in the wrong place?

I have put in bold the section of the code with the error trap.


Option Explicit

Const TargetDB = "Group Life Pricing Tables v0.1.accdb"

Sub HMUK_Val()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

Worksheet_change Executing Selectively

Apr 4, 2007

I have a Worksheet_Change method in my sheet module which has suddenly begun working selectively. I have several target ranges in my worksheet that I need to watch for changes. One range of cells is all pull-down menus (a list of electrical loads through excel's validation), another two cells are looking at the name and location of an electrical panel.

When the user selects an electrical load, the worksheet_change method updates a legend of definitions. When the user enters a new name or location, the method updates similar fields elsewhere on the same sheet.

The problem is, excel has stopped executing worksheet_change when a load is chosen or location entered. It only executes when the aforementioned load and location are deleted. However, the name field triggers worksheet_change just fine!

I have attempted to put breakpoints on the worksheet_change method; Excel does not even execute the method as described above. I've tried breaking on the toggling of Application.EnableEvents (which occurs early on in the execution of worksheet_change). I currently have a global watch on Application.EnableEvents and I'm quite sure it's TRUE before I attempt to trigger a worksheet_change event.

My next step is to create a brand new workbook and copy my spreadsheet and code into it. I'll post the results of that experiment.
