Automatically Refresh Without Having To Click Or Press Enter To Get VBA Code To Work
Feb 25, 2013
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
On Sheet1 I always enter information into Cell X1 first, then hit Enter. Now I need to continue entering data into Cells B10 through B75. Is there a way to set Cell X1 to jump to Cell B10 after I hit Enter?
I've selected a case statement (see below) but I want to that code to work automatically. So i do not want to press a button to show a certain value in S2. But I want cell c2 to automatically pop up the value (depending of the value in V4). So kind like an if/then statement.
Sub CASEMEDEWERKER() Select Case Range("F4").Value
Case "Medewerker" Range("S2") = "M"
Case "Interview" Range("S2") = "I"
Case "Data" Range("S2") = "D"
Case "Observatie" Range("S2") = "O" End Select End Sub
I have a column of dates that are not being recognized as dates unless if I manually select each cell and press enter. For example the cell value is "Jul/13' and isn't recognized as "01/06/2013" until I select it and hit enter. How can I get around this?
I have the following code that gets stuck in the Loop and will not stop unless I press the Esc key:
Sub WIP() Dim ws1 As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet Dim lastrow As Long Dim newRow As Long Set ws1 = Sheets("PAYCALC") Set ws2 = Sheets("WIP")
Application.ScreenUpdating = False With ws2 .Range("A2:C" & .Range("A2:C2").End(xlDown).Row).Clear End With
x = 10 lastrow = ws1.Range("C5").End(xlUp) Do newRow = ws2.Cells(65536, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row ws2.Cells(newRow, 1) = ws1.Cells(x, 2).Offset(-2, 0).Value ws2.Cells(newRow, 2) = ws1.Cells(x, 2).Value ws2.Cells(newRow, 3) = ws1.Cells(x, 2).Offset(3, 0).Value x = x + 21 Loop Until x >= lastrow
There's a twist to this. I have the same identiclecode in a different module. The only difference is ws2 is different and there are 7 newRow's. Other then that the two are the same.
That one works just fine without getting stuck. It will go through 200+ sets of records and stop when it reaches the last one.
The one above will not stop even though I just put in three records on ws1 for testing.
I am working with a large legacy file/program which has a lot of issues. Foremost, and unfortunately this cannot be changed, is that all of the controls were placed directly on the worksheets instead of on Userforms.
I had previously posted code from the legacy file which may have been excessively complicated. So I edited my post to this simple example. Sheet1 has one textbox and one command button. Sheet 2 is blank.
If Sheet2.Activate is commented, everything works fine. If Sheet2.Activate is executed, then Excel crashes....
i have some code that allows my users to enter their user ID on double clicking. The worksheet code below shows how on double clicking into Colum 3 (If Target.Column = 3 Then) then the user ID will appear. Q: How do i get the code to work in Columns 3, 5 and 7 but not those inbetween?! I tried using "or" but it allowed the ID to be entered into all columns! i.e. 3,4,5,6 and 7 which is not what I require. In short I need the ID to appear on double clik into every other column.
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim user As String 'This refers to the function ReturnUserName, which takes the name from the NT environment
If Target.Column = 3 Then Target = ReturnUserName Cancel = True End If
As said, the right click doesn't work anymore, last week it was working but it doesn't anymore. When I right-click wherever in the spreadsheet nothing happens but I know it's working because it works outside excel.
I am using a userform to collate the information in the "data" sheet and have a unique ref number in column A. Data populates columns A - AC.
In sheet "Mail" I enter the Ref number and it pulls through the info using vlookups into a template which I then e-mail as the body of the text on the click of a macro button.
I wish to capture the date each time the button is clicked in the same data row starting in column AD then AE etc.
I have cobbled all of this together by searching around this forum - I have not expertise so please be gentle with me!

The actual code from the legacy file is excessively complicated, so I created this simple example. Sheet1 has one textbox and one command button. Sheet 2 is blank.

When using Enter, if Sheet2.Activate is commented, everything works fine. If Sheet2.Activate is executed, then Excel crashes.

I have a pivot table being created from multiple sheets in a workbook. This pivot table is created in the same workbook. Now how do I refresh this Pivot sheet automatically when any of the worksheets are updated. Even manually I am not able to refresh since the Refresh data menu is greyed out.
I have a worksheet set with Autofilter. This worksheet is populated by formulas taking data entered on another worksheet.
I want the Autofilter for the first worksheet to automatically refresh each time I view that worksheet or as data is entered on the supporting worksheet.
Say a user inputs information into the user form, when they click enter, it enters all the data on the next available line in a workbook.
Is is possible for the user to click a cell on a previously entered row, and have the userform populate with the existing information?
example. say the user has to fill out 3 separate areas. 1, 2, 3. However the user only has data for 1 and 2. They go ahead and enter the infromation for 1 and 2 and click submit to transfer to sheet. Now later he gets information for area 3, can the row the information that he previously entered, lets say column 1, row 1, and it reopens the userform with the information for 1 and 2 prefilled from what he entered previously?
I have a workseet that is basically a massive list of orders that have been placed. I have some conditional formatting based on cells that use the today() function to work out how long (in days) since the order was placed.
Trouble is, the spreadsheet is always open, and is never closed down... so it does not refresh automatically. So orders that should go red to indicate a week since they've been placed, don't!
I don't want to rely on people refreshing the screen. Ideally, I would like it to refresh once a day at 1 minute past midnight, or even every hour...
I have a sheet named "Risk Register" and another named "Outside Residual Risk Threshold". I need an event macro on the worksheet "View code" section, so that any time a value changes in column AF on "Risk Register", the filter on rows 8:39 in "Outside Residual Risk Threshold" is refreshed. Both sheets are protected.
The code I tried in the "view code" or "Outside Residual Risk Threshold" was as below...
I have four sheets workbook, and i'd like to set a command button that prints scattered tables ( ranges) on my workbook but still have a pattern.
I attached a simple wokbook that explains how ranges are positioned in my workbook, i hope that it is possible to print these tables in the sequence shown in the file by a single command.
I'm working on a dashboard that shows some market developments. One of the problems is that I'm using linked pictures and a combo box to choose the appropriate graph, but sometimes the picture link returns a blank. Apparently this is a bug that can be fixed by running a macro that refreshes the picture link. Unfortunately I'm a real beginner with this kind of stuff.
Is it possible to run a macro (concatenate) automatically on a sheet when data is refreshed on that sheet from access database? It there a code that has to be written in vb?
I have a Pivot Table feeding a chart that needs specific formatting
However, after a Pivot Table refresh, the chart loses any custom formatting and returns to the default formatting.
(I know I can create custom user-defined charts but I don't want to do that here)
What I would like to happen is for a (chart formatting) macro to automatically run after a pivot table refesh occurs. It should only occur on the one worksheet that contains the Pivot Table and associated chart and should run the macro after a refresh REGARDLESS of whether the data within the table was updated or not.
This is the first time I’ve tried to use VBA. I’m using Excel 2000. In my excel workbook have 1 sheet called “Cards” in which I Change data in one cell $B$2 (enter a part number) and formulas in this sheet return many values from another sheet “Card Data”. In the “Card Data” sheet, formulas that look through a sheet “Sales Book” and return the data that pertains to the Part Number I entered in the sheet “Cards”. In the sheet “Card Data” there are 3 pivot tables (“PH CALC”, “PH QTY”, and “Pivot Table 3”) that use the Part Number data to show 3 different sets of information. The pivot tables are the source for 3 charts in the “Cards” Sheet.
Problem: Pivot tables don’t automatically refresh. I would like to use VBA code to automatically refresh the pivot tables in the “Card Data” sheet when I change the Part Number in cell $B$2 of the “Cards” sheet, which, in turn, would then update my charts in the “Cards” sheet.
I read your reply to the thread below, and used your Worksheet_Calculate routine from it. It only works for the first sheet in my workbook. I have multiple sheets in the workbook, and when I run the routine on an activesheet other than the first sheet in the workbook, it doesnt work.
Is there a way to get this routine to work on a worksheet other than the first one in the book?
I have this spreadsheet with tons of vba coding. The intent of the spreadsheet is to track invoices as it goes through the approval process. The part that is giving me issues is the first and seventh column. The seventh column is actually a formula that returns how many days between the invoice due date and today’s date. The coding works fine, with one small glitch. Once the dates have been entered, the first column (which contains the color-coding) stops changing colors. What it should do is anything with 0 or less days remaining should show red, between 1 to 10 days, show yellow and anything above 10 days, show green.
So if I enter an invoice with 11 days remaining to pay, it will show green in the first column, but when I open the spreadsheet tomorrow, it remains green, even though it should show yellow. What I want it to do is refresh every time it is opened, or every day, which ever is easier. There are reasons that we cannot use conditional formatting, one of them being that we want to expand the color coding system to more than 3 colors soon, but I want to get this working correctly first.
This is what I have. I cannot attach the spreadsheet because it contains confidential information.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim h As Integer Dim i As Integer Dim j As Integer Dim lastRow As String Dim fRowValue As String Dim gRowValue As String Dim mRowValue As String Dim rRowValue As String Dim uRowValue As String Dim paidCheck As String Dim stringAnswer As String Dim testAnswer As String Dim testDate As String
I am currently using a pop up calendar in Excel 2010 that with CTL+SHIFT+B that a calendar pops up, you select your date, and then the calendar closes. What I now need is to write a code or formula or something that when I click in any cell in column F lets say that the calendar opens automatically in that cell and then still close automatically after the date selection is made.
I am using excel 2007 and when I change cells my formulas do not automatically refresh. I have set it to automatic and the calculations will not refresh. How I can force a calculation. I did the control alt f9 and nothing seems to work. Any macro that can force all calculations.
