I want to write a piece of code that will automatically do a SaveAs on the workbook I'm using, say every hour, and add the current system date and time to the filename every time.
View 4 RepliesI've created a MsgBox that if you do not respond or Click on it within a set time it will either disappear or perform an action upon no selection. It works great....IF it’s the only excel workbook open. If there is a second workbook open (Even if the second WB is minimized) then the MsgBox just stays up and the "Timer" no longer works. My Code is as Follows:
Sub TimedMsgBox()
Dim Box As Object
Dim varResponse As Variant
Dim Res As Long
Set Box = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
varResponse = Box.Popup(Text:="Which button will you click?", secondstowait:=5, Title:="Click Me!", Type:=vbYesNoCancel)
If varResponse = vbYes Then
MsgBox "You clicked Yes"
ElseIf varResponse = vbNo Then
MsgBox "You clicked No"
ElseIf varResponse = vbCancel Then
MsgBox "You clicked Cancel"
ElseIf varResponse = -1 Then
Res = Box.Popup(Text:="What? Do you not like me?", secondstowait:=5, Title:="You Didn't click Me!", Type:=vbOK)
End If
End Sub
I have a range that refer to an external data. This external data is refreshed every one minute. So the data is changing every one minute. I need to copy the content of one fix cell in that range into another cell every one minute, each time copy to a different cell. Example: cell A1 has the content that refer to an external data. Cell A1 is updated every one minute. At first A1= 100, I need it to be copied to cell B1 (so B1=100); one minute later, A1=101, I need it to be copied to B2 (so B2=101) and so on.

There are data entries next to these time stamps. I am able to create just the time stamps starting at the beginning and ending at the end of the month but I need it to fill in missing entries in a data set. The code below works but only some of the time. I have tried a few different things but nothing works.
Code:
Sub Insert_missing_3min()
'Inserts a row with the date and time where the missing date and time stamp is and a zero next to the date added.
Dim min3 As Date
Dim CurTime As Date
Dim CurCell As Date
Dim NextCell As Date
min3 = 3 / 24 / 60

I want a forumal to do in excel.
Assuming that a workday is from 8:30am to 5:00pm. (also need to not calcualte Saturday and Sunday but this example doesn't show it).
Wednesday, 7/18/07 at 4:00pm (minus) Friday, 7/20/07 at 9:00am (should equal) 10 hours or 1 day, 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Basically what I want to do it determine how much work time has elapsed from the time a message was left on voicemail to the time that someone picks that message up. We only want to assume that a message can be retrieved duruing business hours but a message can be left at anytime!
How can I work out the following in hours an minutes: -
Cell A1 = 12th May 2007 20:00
Cell B1 - 14th May 2007 14:30
or should I put the dates and times in seperate cells? I would like the answer to show 42 hours 30 minutes
I have an excel file that I use to track all my financial investments. The file is already set up with a query to retrieve stock prices when I refresh the document.
I would like to be able to open up the document, and store the closing price of the stock(s) with a date in the next column over. With this information I can graph weekly, monthly annually, or any time period I want.
I have been searching for a couple of hours now, and I could not find anything similar to this. I would think this is a pretty common idea for many people tracking their investments with Excel, so if it has been covered perhaps someone can point me in the right direction.
I don't have any programming experience in excel so as detailed of an explanation as possible

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!

View 2 Replies View RelatedI work in a sales team, and am currently planning the new year of sales spreadsheets (tracking prospects and orders) These spreadsheets are linked in both directions to the Sales Director's summary spreadsheet (so that she can set the targets, and also provide a summary to the MD). She has asked me whether it is possible to put a formula in that gives the date each line (1 line = 1 prospect) was updated (so that she can see whether information in the line is current / a week old / a month old etc)
Effectively, what I need is in column A a formula which references columns B-Q and if any of those change, puts in the date of change. Is this possible, or am I going to have to ask the sales guys to do it manually? I have tried to use the =Now() function, but, because the spreadsheets are linked, and auto-update on opening, every time the spreadsheet is opened, each line goes to today's date.
The previous threads that I looked at suggested either: volatile time stamp in shared workbook
or
That is bad design, Enter =NOW() to a single name cell named cell and use date =MyD-T in ALL cells needing the Date & Time. Where MyD-T is the named cell. I would advise STRONGLY against using Manual Calculation as it's NOT good spreadsheet design and a mistake waiting to happen.

I ran a Home Service Massage, with ten massagers and it's continually growing. I know I'm supposed to use a database for this, but I'm not very good in creating one. I am however confident in using MS Excel, so in a much as possible, I only want to use MS Excel, and strictly use formulas (if I can get away with it).
Anyway, I keep customer records in one tab, and all their personal info is listed there. There are two types of columns, which I'd like to call 'static' and 'automatic'.
Static columns includes Unique ID (number), Name, Address, Phone Number, etc.
Automatic columns, by the term I used, is filled automatically. This includes the total number of hours they have availed the massage from us, the names of massagers who serviced them, --- and my biggest issue --- the date of last massage. I can manually input this, but I normally forget, so I want this filled automatically.
Aside from customer tab, I have one tab for each massager. First column is the date, then 48 columns for time. Starting from 8AM, 830AM, 9AM... 730AM. Hence I have 48 of them. Each column is equals to 30mins of massage availed. I copy and paste the Unique ID from customer tab.
so A2:A32 are dates, and B2:BC50 is where I copy paste the unique ID. B1:BC1 are time labes.
Is it possible for me, just by using formulas, to populate the 'last massage date' column?
I am looking to have a macro which will automatically add the username and date to a cell, when the cell above changes (or in this case =x). I have a bit of code from a previous project, but I have changed Target.Row to Target.Column and it is not behaving as I require:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Range("B2:BZ2"), Target) Is Nothing Then
Range("C" & Target.Column).Value = Format(Date, "dd-mmm") & " " & Format(Time, "hh:mm") & " by " & (Application.UserName)
End If
End Sub
See the attachment for the example. What I need is whenever row 3 ="x" I need the corresponding cell in row "d" to update with the latest date, time and username. Please not the macro is currently not active on the sheet as i've added the ' character.
I have found some posts about "Auto Saving" and Dave pretty much frowns upon that. But the program I use (via ODBC), for some reason doesn't see the changes I make unless the file is saved. I have it auto-saving right now, but was thinking, maybe it is better to export a copy.
What I would need, is the ability to take my current workbook and export it to a new file (overwriting that same file each time), and do this based on time or (even better) on a change in the data. My current workbook is set to pull from other CSV files, scraping our website, etc., and then I use Excel to format the data the way I want.
It would be cool, if I could export two versions each time too... one that would be like a archive of what the file was like when it changed, the other would be the one that just gets overwritten each time.
Love this site...tons of info...but dang am I not smart at this stuff. Half the time, I don't even get where to put the code...worksheet, module, workbook?

Macro to save the worksheet every 5min
A macros is needed to:
1. save the worksheet under the same name

where HH is hour and MM is minutes of the time the file is saved)
2. every 5 minutes (the file is opened at 9AM and closed at 6PM manually)
