Automatically Format Cells On Enter
Nov 22, 2006
I'm trying to write a macro that automatically italicize the a range of cells when you select a cell, and de-italicize it if you click it again. In this example, when select B12, the macro will automatically select B12:H12 and italize them. And if you select B12 again, it will automatically select B12:H12 and de-italize it.
This is what I have so far:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
MyAddress = ActiveCell.Row
If MyAddress > 11 And MyAddress < 159 Then
If Not Intersect(Columns(2), Target) Is Nothing Then
Intersect(Columns(2), Target).Resize(, 7).Select
End If
Select Case Target.Font.Italic
Case "True"
Target.Font.Italic = False
Case "False"
Target.Font.Italic = True
End Select
End If
End Sub
The code above does not work correctly.

I am needing a custom format for the following. I need a cell entry to be 1 letter, three numbers, a dash, 5 numbers, a dash, two numbers, a dash, and then two number. Example: A109-54785-13-00. The first letter will almost always be an "A."
To further complicate the matter, the entry is copied from an email and pasted without the dashes. In the above example, the number in the email would read, "A109547851300." I copy it from the email and paste it in the proper cell in the worksheet. I would like the custom format to automatically enter the dashes at the appropriate spot.
If it was all numbers, this would be easy. I created a custom format for the numbers, but when the A is included, Excel no longer treats it as a number and the custom format did not work.
Is this possible in Excel (without VBA).
I could use the custom number format I created and then later go back and add the "A" at the beginning, but that is as much work as manually adding the dashes.

I was wondering how I could automatically enter a value next in a sequence in a cell when an adjacent cell has data in it and continue doing so indefinitely (or until the 65536th row). I could do this with autofil, but The sequence starts in the middle of the worksheet (there is a title and document data in the top few rows). The layout is as follows:
Cell A17 has "Part 1" in it (and always will before the form gets filled out), and all cells in colum A beneath that will be blank. Column B is where the user enters a dimension. So, at the start, entering a value into cell B17 won't do anything. However, if they enter a value into cell B18, I would like cell A18 to automatically be filled with the next part number in the sequence (in this case, "Part 2" in cell A18). The user will never skip rows when they enter data so the sequence will always be +1 to the previous cell in the column.
I'm doing this so they can just print out the completed sheet and not have to edit out the empty "Part *" cells that have no corrosponding dimensions.
Is there a simple way to tailor autofill to do this or would I need a macro?

I have some imported data that Excel does not recognize as date or time so I have to edit each cell pressing F2 and the enter to "convert" the value.
I have about 120.000 records and the macro takes long time to do the job.

The following code works perfect but the "change" event is only triggered when working directly on intersect range. Tried using the "calculation" event but could not figure it out. This is what I want:
1) To replace the code provided below using the calculation event
2) To only trigger the event for the row(s) where the new value was generated, not for the whole "For Each" statement
3) To use one single code for all worksheets, instead of copying the code in every working worksheet on the workbook, if feasible
4) And I would like a "second alternative", where the user of the workbook can click on a button and trigger the event on every row on the workbook that has a non empty cell within the intersect range, assuming that the intersect range column is the same for all worksheets
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim c As Range, d As Range, fc As Long, bc As Long, bf As Boolean
Set d = Intersect(Range("I:I"), Target)
If d Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
For Each c In d
Select Case UCase(c)
Case "C"
fc = 1: fb = True: bc = 4
Case "O"
fc = 2: fb = True: bc = 3
Case "D"
fc = 2: fb = True: bc = 46
Case "G"
fc = 2: fb = True: bc = 5..................

I am trying to keep my checkbook in excel and want to make a spreadsheet that inserts a row every time I hit enter. That way my most reason transaction and balance is always at the top rather than the bottom of the spreadsheet... The inserted row should have the same formulas as the row below.

How do I get a cell to automatically add the numbers as I enter them,for example. I want to keep track of my gas bills for income tax. So if I go in each day to add that days gas amount I want that cell to auto add each entry for me, rather that constantly add my bills and then re-enter every time I enter new amounts.

I have recently written some programming in a spreadsheet (1) which, on opening, opens up another spreadheet(2), ammends this spreadsheet(2), and then closes it before the user can start using the original one(1). This is done to monitor the usage. The information added into the atomatically opened spreadsheet(2) includes date and time of opening and the users id as well as adding 1 to counter cells. Both .xls files are located on the same server and I dont want people to catch on to the monitoring and if they do I dont want them to then go into this file(2) and remove their information.
If I password protect this file(2) it then promts to enter a password when it runs at the startup of the initial spreadsheet(1) which is no good as it would defeat the purpose if the user knew the password. Is it possible to add a few lines into the code (see below) after it initiates the opening of the usage file?
Private Sub workbook_open()
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"S:Newman CommonCATEGORY MANAGEMENT - RangesEPoS Usage.xls"
Dim Counter As Integer
Counter = Cells(2, 7)
Counter = Counter + 1
Cells(2, 7) = Counter
Cells(Rows.Count, "BV").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = Now
Cells(Rows.Count, "BW").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = Application.UserName
ActiveWorkbook.Save
ActiveWindow.Close
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

I have a command button that opens 5 windows when it is selected. Each window asks us to enter the username, password and logon to in order to sign on...thus, we have to do this a total of 5x manually.
If possible, I'd like for the aforementioned fields to be entered using VBA code, so when I click the command button, all 5 windows open with the login infomration already entered.
For examples, sake, lets say the usernmae is ABC1234, the password is Password and the Logon To field is Alliance. If this is possible, how would I code this?

Is there a way that Excel can automatically enter to next row once the typing has reach the end.
Example: I have 5 columns (A to E) and I am typing at column A. While typing, the text will go along to cell B, C, D and E. The problem is, if I don't manually go to next row and continue typing, the text will go to column F, G and so on. Is there a way where excel can automatically jump to next row if the text has reach column E?
Another problem is, say I have 3 rows full of text (column A to E). If I edit one of the row to exter some new texts, the whole sentence will go along to column F, G and so on. What I can do now is, re-edit all the rows to adjust them back.

How to set a column up to show it as the time of day but unless I enter PM after I put the time in the column it always comes up as AM.
Is there some way to just enter 9:09 in column d and or f and have it show up as pm? When I enter 8:10 in column b it automatically adds the AM to it but if I do the same in the column for the night and I do not type in pm it will automatically enter it as am.
I have attached the workbook and did delete the macro - which was just to clear all of my entries but when I click to open it again I am still getting the message about the macro.
In the workbook when I enter the time in column B I can just type in 7:14 and it will automatically add the AM to it. However, when I get to column D or F if I just type in 9:09 or whatever time it is in the evening it will automatically add AM to it unless I type 9:09 pm.
Is there some way to set it up so that I can just enter the time and it will automatically enter pm for everything in that column?

I am making a template for my company to automatically calculate the amount of sheet metal needed for a specific job. The spreadsheet could get very long depending on how much duct is needed. Is there any way I can automatically insert rows to the end of the sheet by pressing enter after filling the last row with data, which would then move the totals down. Also, the formatting of the rows I wish to add need to be copies of the ones above.

On the attached example i have a user form (click Add New Hedge button) and on this form is a textbox for 'Avg. Price'. The value of entered from this box will go into the next available row in column on 'Unsettled Hedges' worksheet.
My problem is sometimes i would to enter the price as a fraction, e.g. 1/2 and other i would like to enter the price as a decimal, e.g. 1.5. At the moment if i enter the price as a decimal figure this will convert it to a fraction in column D of the 'unsettled hedges' worksheet.
What do i need to change in my code to make it enter the price in either format?

Cell C3 has "Joe"
Cell X44 is a VLOOKUP that retrieves "Joe"
Let's say Joe goes on vacation. The workbook user goes in and puts a blue fill in C3. Cell X44 would also need to change automatically.
What's needed to make this happen?

I have some VBA code which hides columns based on a cell value. The cell value changes according to which option button is selected. The code works but not when the button is selected and the cell value changes. It is necessary to click elsewhere in the sheet or press Enter to get the columns to hide. I want it to do it automatically as a user wouldn't know to click elsewhere.
The working code is:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Range("N5").Value = 2 Then
Columns("O:R").EntireColumn.Hidden = True
Else
Columns("O:R").EntireColumn.Hidden = False
End If
End Sub
N5 is the linked cell for the option button.

I have used the format [hh]:mm in a cell for 24 hr clock calculations. Why do I have to enter the numbers with a colon when I populate the cells? Is there a way to set it up so I just type in the four numbers and the colon between the hours and minutes populates itself?

how to make a certain type of date automate. It's kind of hard to explain, but basically, I'd like to make it so that when I enter a date in one column, another column will automatically populate with the 1st of the next month. For example:
If I enter 4/26/2009 in the 1st column, column 2 will read: 5/1/2009
If I enter 1/19/2008 .................................................. 2/1/2008
Also, it's very important that if the FIRST date is already the first of the month, then the second column will read the same. For instance: If I enter 3/1/2009 in the first colum, the second column will ALSO read 3/1/2009.

There are two projects.
Project 1 has phase A, D & F and Project 2 has phase A, B, C, D & E.
My Specification follows...
1). Take Prject 1 - Which starts from A...in cell A2 I will keyin "A". When the phase comes to an end I will key in the end date of the phase. As soon as I key in the end date in cell A2 Letter D should automatically appear in the cell D2 and when Phase D comes to an end I will key in the end date in Cell D2 which should automatically keyin F in the cell F2. and is the same case for Project 2.

I have been battling with this report I have been working with for sometime. Is there a way in Excel where I can automatically add zero into the time format?
The problem is I have to import data from another source and the time displays as a time format showing :59:00 insted of 0:59:00. Excel will not sum the calculation without the zero infront of the colon. This makes my report very time consuming. Can someone show me a way that I can automatcially add zero's infront when having data under 1:00:00?

I sometimes import data from an ERP Program to Excel. I want to write a Macro which will make the imported data more presentable (For example: draw borders for all the cells, give the heading a fill color etc. etc.). To do this I need to select the heading row. The problem is that each time there are a different number of columns.
How do I program the macro so that it will color all of the header? I saw a macro that does this on a pivot table and I want to do thae same on a regular table.
