Autoname Tabs By Changing Cell

Nov 11, 2007

Is there a way to make the name of a Tab = the contents of a cell.

For instance if I type "Pizza" in cell B3, I want the current tab to be named "Pizza", but then if I change B3 to "Banana", I want the tab name to change to "Banana" as well.

VBA - Autoname Cell For Hyperlink Purposes

Nov 19, 2011

having an excel file autoname cells in order that I can hyperlink a picture to each tab individually.

Example - The file has autonamed tabs Wednesday 1, Tuesday 2....etc. In each tab is a reservation guide for three restaurants and the logo's at the top of the tab should hyperlink to a cell within the same tab. Blu Restaurant = A32, Grille = A223 within the same tab. How can I do this without manually naming the 3 cell's in each tab? I will also need this to be flexible so that when I create the January worksheet it populates from the tab names that are created using VBA already.

Refering To A Worksheet With Autoname

Dec 5, 2009

Currently I have a code that names a worksheet automatically with the date the first entry was keyed in. The problem is that I'd like to create a formula that would not be affected whatever the names of these sheets might be. There are 21 sheets, the last sheet would be the one containing the formula adding cell values from the preceeding 20 sheets. I've been scratching my head with this for a while now trying to come up with a workaround solution.

HTML Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

Dim dateTemp As Date

ActiveSheet.Names.Add Name:="timestamp", RefersTo:=Now()
dateTemp = Val(Mid(ActiveSheet.Names("timestamp"), 2))

'Sheet is given a default name until the first entry.
'The name is changed to the date the entry was made.

If ActiveSheet.Name = "DAY01" Then
ActiveSheet.Name = Format(dateTemp, "MMM dd.hh.ss")

End If
End Sub

VBA Code For Changing Pivot Datasource On All Tabs

Jan 28, 2014

I'm uploading a sample worksheet- on the scenario A tab, there is a pivot table that are pulling from the data range that is between B3:c13. I copied tab A and made tab B. However, on tab B, the pivot table is still pulling from the data range on scenario A even though I need it to be pulling from tab B.

I do not want to use dynamic ranges because the pivot table is being used to make a pivot chart. How do I get it so that on the scenario B tab the pivot table automatically pulls from the right tab?

I have also have a macro/VBA (I don't know what it is considered, I just copied code from somewhere online) that automatically refreshes all pivot tables (there are other pivot tables being used in the spreadsheet). If I did need to use vba/macro to accomplish what I need to do, where would I copy/paste it in the code I currently have (not sure if the button I have in sample will work properly)?

Sub Refresh()
Dim PT As PivotTable
Dim WS As Worksheet
For Each WS In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
For Each PT In WS.PivotTables
PT.RefreshTable
Next PT
Next WS
End Sub

On tab B, I manually created another pivot table to show what I want the end result to look like. The pivot table between rows 22 and 24 and the corresponding pivot chart between columns E and M (lets call this pivot table/chart #1) is what I'm trying to manipulate. The pivot table between rows 26 and 28 and the corresponding pivot chart between columns o and V is what I want the end result to look like. I made pivot table/chart #2 by just manually setting the data source to be "ScenarioB!$B$3:$C$13.

However what I'm trying to do is get it so that pivot table #1 would automatically refer to ScenarioB!$B$3:$C$13 instead of ScenarioA!$B$3:$C$13. I created the tab "scenario B" but just duplicating the scenario a sheet. Thus, when I duplicate, the pivot table still incorrectly refers to data on the scenario A tab. I want it to pull from the scenario B tab.

The data range between $B$3:$C$13 automatically pulls from another sheet in my real spreadsheet.

Changing Cell Color Based On Changing Values

Sep 16, 2009

This may have been answered on here but can not seem to find it. My situation is I have values in A1,A2 & A3 that are like counter reading so the value is always changing. What I am looking to do is change the cell color if one of the values is over 500 from the other two values. Say A1 is 3000, A2 is 3250 and A3 is 3500. I would like the cell for A3 to change color.

Copy Cell Contents Between Tabs Provided Cell References Match (VLOOKUP)

Apr 29, 2014

I have 2 inventory reports: what my store has and what my supplier has. I need to copy Tab1:K# to Tab2:T# provided that Tab1:A#'s contents match Tab2:A#'s contents. The A column represents the SKU of the item, but there is a difference in the amount of SKU's in each (my store sells ~6,000 items, supplier has ~10,000 items), so it's not as simple as sort by column A and copy pasting column K to column T.

For instance:
On Tab 1, A2's value is [1], K2's value is [9.38].
On Tab 2, A70's value is [1], K70's value is blank, but I need it to be [9.38], to match Tab 1's respective SKU.

I almost thought I had it figured out with VLOOKUP, but I cant seem to get it right... It doesn't reference the correct number.

Screenshots for reference

First tab, from the wholesaler: [URL]
Second tab, store's stock: [URL]

VBA Code To Renames Tabs Dependent On Cell Name

Mar 27, 2008

Can anyone please help me with some code to rename tabs to match a value in a cell.

When I receive the spreadsheet it is in the standard Sheet1, Sheet2 and so on.

Now in cell E2 there is a Budget Cost code. Now I have to manually rename the tabs to match this code and it is quite time consuming.

Also Sheet1 is different as it has a logo in cell E2 so the budget code on that sheet is in E3 but like I said earlier Sheet2, Sheet3 and so on the budget code is in E2.

Can anyone post a little macro that will rename all the tabs on the worksheet to match the budget code in the above mentioned cells.

Macro - Rename Only & Sheet... & Tabs With Last 8 Characters From Cell

Nov 5, 2009

I pull an excel sheet from a database each day that gives me sales data for different products sold. The way the spreadsheet comes from the system, the first tab is named "Document Map" and lists all of the products, and each product then has its own tab but they're generically named (Sheet1, Sheet2, etc.). The name of the product is always in cell T8, but the name itself is only the last 8 characters of that cell.

What I'm hoping to accomplish with a macro is two things:

1) Retrieve the last 8 characters from T8 in each tab, and name the tab with those characters (same effect as the formula "=right(T8,8)").
2) Ensure that this only occurs on tabs with the word "Sheet" in the beginning. Depending on the day, there could be any number of products and they each get their own tab, so I was hoping to be able to get the macro to only work on sheets where the first 5 characters are "Sheet" regardless of the number after that.

Find Last Cell In Range, And Changing Another Cell Based On Offset Text

May 4, 2009

If i have a range say E12:O12 and want to find the last cell before blank, lets say it finds m12 as the cell with the value before blank. then with m12 it needs to determine weather row 11 in the same column has Text either "S" or "F" if "S" then m12 = t if "F" then m12 offset(1,-1) = t. And just to make things more difficult i need the range E12:O12 to step 2 as well until it gets to E208:O208 .Noting that row 11 never changes and will always have either an "S" Or an "F"

and also t = time()

Excel 2010 :: Changing Cell Color And Border By Clicking A Cell

Apr 25, 2014

I would like to accomplish 2 things in my Excel 2010 spreadsheet by click a cell which already has a number and formatting in it.

1. How do I change the color of the cell, the color of the number in it, and the border around it. (Make it look like I just pressed a button by clicking it.)

2. At the same time have the text in different cell and the number in the selected cell appear in another different cell. (Text in a different cell = A , and the number in the selected cell = 23, the value in the resulting cell be "A 23") Everything I would like to happen at the same time by clicking the selected cell. I would also like this to be done several times by clicking different cells and not changing the previously selected cells.

Changing Cell Background Color In Another Sheet Based On Cell Value

Jun 13, 2013

I am working on a workbook with 200+ sheets and an index linking to each of the sheets. On the sheets there is a cell containing the results of calculations and I need the cell referencing the sheet in the index to change background colors depending if the calculations value is greater or less than 0. I currently have working code that also changes the tab color of each sheet depending on the value, but i am trying to add the index cell background change functionality into that. also, the index listings is subject to change. my working code is

VB:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Range("d34").Value < 0 Then
Me.Tab.ColorIndex = 3
ElseIf Range("D34").Value > 0 Then
Me.Tab.ColorIndex = 4
Else

[Code]...

and the code i am trying to get working is

VB:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rngX As Range
Set myRange = Worksheets("Index").Range("A1:A500").Find(Range("C2").Text, lookat:=xlPart)
' the C2 is the reference the title that would be on the index
If Range("d40").Value < 0 Then

[Code]....

I keep getting the runtime error '1004: application-defined error or object-defined error the thing is, i ran the cell background changing code in a normal macro before integrating it in my other worksheet code first and it worked fine. I have a little code experience, though not much in vba and I am unsure what the issue is. if there is another better way to accomplish what I'm tring to do, that would also be fine.

Changing Empty Cell Background Color Depending On Different Cell Value

Aug 7, 2014

I'm trying to create a tag with a color border. What I desire is to fill the BLANK cells around the tag, A1:D1 + D1:D19 + A1:D19 + A1:19 in a certain color based on the text value of the cell B11. There are 5 different values, such that if the B11 read Red Sox - the boarder is going to be red, if it reads Houston Astros it will be dark blue, etc..

I have a similar problem with changing the color of the cell based on the month. So regardless of the year, 2014, 2015, 2016, etc... If I use MONTH() function I can just get numbers from 1-12. I want Cell C16-C18 to be certain color depending the date entered in cell C17 such that for each quarter, months 1-3, 4-6, 7-9, 10-12 they are different color.

I have had no luck with conditional formatting (and I also believe that it is good up to 3 cases only). I am decent in logic/programming language but have little knowledge with macro notation and especially how to run them in excel 2013. I do know how to start it alt+F11 and that I need to make sure that code is written under the specific sheet where my tag is located.

Macro: Changing Cell Color Based On Date In Cell

Jan 12, 2009

I did a search on this site and found some code I was looking for (see link:

http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...e-in-cell.html - Leith Ross's response code).

The code works perfectly, however, if I save the workbook with a different spreadsheet on top than the spreadsheet referred to in this code, I get an error message: Method 'Range' of object '_Worksheet' failed.

I should state that I did change "Private Sub Workbook_Open()" to "Private Sub Auto_Open()".

I assume I need to modify the code but am unsure as to how.

Create Documents Based On Cell Values And Input Tabs In New Document

Sep 12, 2013

I want to create a macro that creates a new .xlsx document based on cell values. And input 4 tabs into each document with specified tab names. I have a document that pulls from external sources and fluctuates with amount of data per day. I envision something that will make a new document named for the contents in cell A1, then function as a control+down to create a new document for A2, then A3 until there is no content left (should mention these are lookup formulas, and if there is no data it pulls a value of "0")

Is there a way to put in the code, the tab names it would create in each new document, or would that have to look to a cell value for the naming? The tab names would be "GS", "MYSS", "COLL SHEET", and "WIRE".
