Automatic Unique Numbering In MsgBox
Jan 2, 2008
After entering some values in a form I want to get a unique id for that record to be displayed in a message box and thereafter inserted into column A in the same row as the rest of the information. The numbering should be 1, 2, 3 etc and when I use the application the next time the id displayed should be the next number. This is what I've got so far, but now my unique id is always 1 (not very unique at all).
Private Sub UserForm1_Initialize()
Dim rIds As Range
Dim MaxId As Long
Set rIds = .Range(Cells(A, A), Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp))
MaxId = Application.WorksheetFunction.Max(rIds)
With Me.IdBox.Value = MaxId
Private Sub DateBox_Change()
DateBox = Format(Date, "yy/mm/dd")
End Sub

I'm trying to create a bug reporting tool (with a bunch of text boxes and drop down lists) and have the following problems...
1. I would like to get a unique number inserted automatically in a textbox (it's supposed to be the bugs id (1001). How do I do this? And when I click OK after inserting all info I want this number to become +1 so the next defect can be added immediately.
2. Why are my drop down lists empty as default and their values only appear if I enter a value. Why aren't the lists displayed when i just click on them?
3. I have a multipel row text box. How do I get the text to jump to the next row automatically instead of using crtl + enter?

I have a report blank that is comprised of numerous excel worksheets (fixed letter size). During the completion of the report, one may add, delete, and/or move worksheets. I want each worksheet to have a cell that dispalys 'page # of total number of sheets'. Is there a way to automatically update this information?

I have got 2 sheets:
- list (list of transactions)
- accepted (accepted transactions).
I want to make macro, which will:
1. select max value from sheet.accepted "B:B"
2. enter max value +1 in sheet.list "B8"
3. automatic fill down from B9 to the end of list with number increasing by 1 (in B9=B8+1, in B10=B9+1 etc.)
I tried with this:

The context of my question is "Invoice Numbering".
I would like to have a sheet where I can have an incremental number. Every time I run the macro it should strikeout the last number and it provides me an incremental number.
I used such a sheet in a previous job and I cannot find it online.

I would like to ask for some assistance to my Spreadsheet problem.
To illustrate my problem please see below:
1------------> Level 1
1.1----------> Level 1 Sublevel 1
1.1.1--------> Level 1 Sublevel 1 Item 1
1.1.2--------> Level 1 Sublevel 1 Item 2
1.2----------> Level 1 Sublevel 2
1.2.1--------> Level 1 Sublevel 2 Item 1
1.2.2
2
2.1
2.1.1
2.1.1
2.2
and so on
I need to have a formula to automate the adding of outline numbers from "Level 1, Sublevel 1, Item 1..." So that if I deleted or added a row, the rest will automatically update themselves.
I will be the one manually inputing the Top Level and Sublevels I just need that the Items will be automatically added and computed basing from the previous level.
What I am planning to do is:
1. Check previous cell if the format has two decimal points or periods --> kinda stuck here
2. If there's only one then it will be the Sublevel 1 Item 1 (or depending to its location)
3. If there's already two periods "." then it will compute automatically for what item it is already.
ie:
1
1.1
1.1.1
1.1.2----->Checks the previous cell if it has 2 decimal places then if it does then it will add 1

I am trying to work out how to automaticaly fill in the next number in a sequence of bespoke numbers like this in column B 1012-0153-70, next 1012-0153-71, next 1012-0153-72 and so on so when i click on the next open cell in column B it adds the next number in the sequence
I have the following VBA code in my Sheet:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChang()
With Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
If Target.Address = .Address Then
.Offset(-1, 0).AutoFill Destination:=.Offset(-1, 0).Resize(2, 1), Type:=xlFillDefault
End If
End With
but nothing seems to work. i also have the following VBA code on the same sheet:
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
End Sub
Private Sub Calendar1_Click()
[Code].....

Would it be possible to have a unique number appear on every indivually printed sheet?
My worksheet in Excel fits onto one sheet of paper and I would like a unique number to appear whenever I print, even after closing system and re-opening file at a later date (the last printed sheet is 'remembered' so the next printed sheet is the next number in sequence).
So the first time I print a batch of say 100 I would have 100 x identical pages EACH with a unique number, i.e., '0001' to '0100'. The next time I print another 50 say, I would have '0101' to '0150' and so on.

how to get a single cell (C2) and (D2) to make the numbering format go from (## ## ##) to (######).
The Excel spread sheet is a coordinate converter, designed to take Degree's minuets seconds and convert it to Decimal Degrees, the formula is set up and work Great, but every time I copy and paste the coordinate to the excel spread sheet, i have to manuelly erase the spaces between the numbers so the formula can work properly. How can i get the cell to automatically delete the space between the numbers to save me time.(I.e 29 35 42.34325 -to-> 293542.34325)

I would like to know if there is a way to Auto number a text.
I have a column with text tags (lets say Column B). These cells look at a specific cell (ex. A1) and see what text is written in it then copy the text into their own cells B1, B2, B3 and so on. So if cell A1 reports AAA then Column B cells become AAA all the way down.
Now what I like to do is for column B cells look at A1, copy the text and add _01 infront of their copied text. so for Column B, B1 reports AAA_01, B2 is AAA_02, B3 is AAA_03 and so on

is possible to add a hyperlinked TOC (Table of contents) within a spead sheet (Excel 2003) like it is possible to do in Word. Also how do I go about sequential numbering of rows with sub numbering as shown below? Where if i add a row between 1.2.2 and 2 it would be 1.3.
1
1.1
1.1.1
1.1.2
1.2

I've been given an excel file with 75 addresses (1 address entry per row) and I have to make 150 copies of each address while also numbering column D for each row 1-150.
So in the end it would go from: (sorry for the periods.. extra spacing didn't work!)
A........B................C.......D
AAA...123 Street...City...<blank>
BBB...456 Street...City...<blank>
CCC...789 Street...City...<blank>
To:
A........B................C.......D
AAA...123 Street...City...1
AAA...123 Street...City...2
AAA...123 Street...City...3~
AAA...123 Street...City...150
BBB...456 Street...City...1
BBB...456 Street...City...2
BBB...456 Street...City...3~
BBB...456 Street...City...150
CCC...789 Street...City...1
CCC...789 Street...City...2
CCC...789 Street...City...3~
CCC...789 Street...City...150
I don't mean to be lazy and just ask for a macro code, but I'm a complete excel novice and just looking for a quick and easy fix rather than copy/pasting these entries manually.. edit: this file has a deadline for it, which is the reason for the quick fix not to just get out of learning how to do it
I've tried to make a macro consisting of inserting a row, copying a row then pasting it, but that only worked for the first row that I'm duplicating.

I'm trying to make a sequential resultlist starting with nr 1, 2, 3, etc under the column: Rank ? This should be part of a macro, so autofill is not an option... As you can see, the number of rows are different from each group, and starts with nr 1 for every group. (Some formatting became all wrong posting this.........

i have formulas in a range L5:L15 which sometimes return some value and
sometimes zero. i want to give them auto numbers in column M in a way that it
should only count the cell which has some value.
suppose formula in L5 returns some value, L6 also then L7 & L8 have no
value(but formula persists), cell L9, L10, L11 has values then L12 has no
value L13, L14 has value and L15 has no value (but it has formula in it)
values in these cells changes and some goes to zero and some return values.
now i want to give them Auto Numbers in a way that cells with some value
should only be considered.

Wondering if there is a formula for Excel that could replicate a numbering format like in Word?
Example:
A1.1.
A1.1.1.
A1.1.2.
A1.2.
A1.2.1.
A1.2.2.
A1.3.
and so on...
Idealy I would like to go farther than the 3rd level.

why the Macro below works fine when the spreadsheet is not filtered, but once you filter the spreadsheet it does not work. and if possible a solution.
Sub Count()
Dim MyInput As Integer
MyInput = InputBox("Enter Start Number")
MsgBox ("Start number is ") & MyInput
mycount = Selection.Rows.Count
MsgBox mycount
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = MyInput
For Num = 1 To mycount
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = MyInput + 1
MyInput = MyInput + 1
Next Num

Heres an example of what I'm trying to do,
if I select form a list a certain name (i.e. "Plt") then I want it to populate a list of numbers (1-102) and the same with "SO" populating numbers 1-119.
and here is what I have so far
=IF(OR($F$1="Plt",$F$1="SO",$F$1="Plt LR",$F$1="SO LR"),"1.")
Is there anyway of making excel do this?

I have a workbook with two worksheets. Worksheet #1 is a form that will be populated with data and saved as a new worksheet, then cleared and used repeatedly as a master form. Worksheet #2 is a log / register of the unique forms completed and saved from the master each time. I need to assign a unique sequential # to each form when it is saved and record this number in a column on Worksheet #2 (the Log). I am using some macros for the copy work but struggling with the auto-numbering of the forms when completed and saved.

I'm wondering if this is the way things work and there's nothing to be done about it (but I doubt that). I have a workbook that I load data into from a csv file. The csv file is "divided" into regions, and I want each region's group of data to be loaded into a separate sheet. To be on the safe side, I delete all the sheets before loading the data with the following code that I found in this forum
Sub delete_all_sheets()
Dim sh As Worksheet
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
For Each sh In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
If sh. Name <> ActiveSheet.Name Then
sh.Delete
End If
Next
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub
Then, for each new region, I create a new sheet with the following code
On Error Resume Next
sheet_nr = sheet_nr + 1
Sheets(sheet_nr).Activate
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets.Add after:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)
End If
On Error Goto 0...............................

In my self built spreadsheet I have a column of 33 cells in which I enter a E1 or E2 etc ref for expenses. Because they are already listed, ie. postage, repairs, rent etc they are not in consecutive order. I want to put an E (letter E) in any of the cells and have a 1 (number1) show up and then wherever the next E is entered then a 2 and so forth so I don't have to keep looking up and down to make sure which number is next and to avoid errors. I can then copy this formula to the other 51 weeks of the year in my spreadsheet. I cannot work out a formula for this.

I have a large sheet (currently some 5,000 rows and growing) where each row is allocated a Unique Reference, however that unique reference is based on two criteria, 'Region' and 'Type'.
There are four 'Regions' and three 'Types' across the whole sheet (see attched sample).
Because of the ever increasing number of entries and the fact that the sheet may be sorted so the unique references won't always appear in sequential order, I am looking to try and find a way for the unique refrence for 'new entires' to the sheet to be generated automatically, based on entires in other columns. The sheet structure is relatively simple, with 'Region' shown in one column and 'Type' in another (again, see attached sample).
The unique references adopt this structure - 1st letter of the region (N, S, E or W for North, South, East or West), followed by 1415, followed by the first 4 characters from the 'Type', (REGI, NATI or COUN for Regional, National or County) followed by a sequential 5 digit number 00001, 00002, 00003 etc.
resulting in for example N1415REGI00001 or W1415COUN00012 and so on.
Because there are thousands of entries, I need an automatic way for the unique reference to be generated, ideally once both the 'Region' and 'Type' fields are populated, so the macro (or whatever method works best) will automatically determine the previous highest number for the relevant series and automatically add the next number for the new entry, based on the above criteria.
I don't know if this is possible with a macro or whether there is an easier formulaic way to achieve this?
