I have some code in the BeforeClose event of the workbook - it worked the first time I tried to shut down the wb, but never since. I opened a new wb and copied in the code and again, it worked first time, but not since. The code is just calling a function, nothing heavy. I've tried the Deactivate event as well. I'm more of an Access VBA kind of gal, so don't know if I'm missing something big here.
View 5 RepliesI have a code in file A that opens several files (B,C,D&E), copies some data from them, then closes the files. That part of the code works fine, but each of the files that are opened (B,C,D,&E) have a Workbook Open event that causes the file to save automatically every 30 seconds. (I know this is not recommended, but this is what the user wants.) The files also have a Workbook Before Close event that is supposed to stop the timer so the file will close without reopening. These each run fine on their own.But if I run code A, the workbook Before Close event in file B (C,D, & E) does not seem to run and the files reopen after 30 seconds to save. When I step through the code it works fine and goes through the Before Close event in each file and the files remain closed.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a "Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)" in a worksheetsheet code.
I would like to turn this procedure off while I run another routine and then turn it back on after the routine has run.
I am using the Worksheet_Change function behind a worksheet that executes some code every time a change is made on the worksheet.
ie.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
End Sub
Is it possible to disable this function while running another macro? Therefore, when I enable Screen.Updating, the Worksheet_Change function will not be triggered.
I have a UserForm with a Text Box, I populate that Text Box with a number (say 5) and then the following code runs:
Code:
Private Sub tbOverrideMokWh_Change()
Application.EnableEvents = False: Application.ScreenUpdating = False
With tbOverrideMokWh
[Code]....
After the Sub is run 1 time, it runs again. Why? I've disabled Events?
I have this code in my workbook, however it's not executing when the workbook is closed
NB - It deletes all the cells, as the workbook_open event is multiple inputs via input box
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Cells.Select
Selection.Delete
ActiveWorkbook.Save
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
I'm trying to get a macro to run on the close event on file B, from the vba in file A.
Does anyone know how to do this? I think I saw the answer in a thread a while back but I can't remember where, or if, for sure.
In the various codes I am using AutoOpen, AutoClose, Workbook_BeforeClose and Workbook_BeforeSave Subs. BeforeClose and BeforeSave are in '_ThisWorkbook'; AutoOpen and AutoClose are in a Module. I also use Workbook_Open, Workbook_Activate and Workbook_Deactivate, also in _ThisWorkbook. I put message boxes thru out code to be sure code was running right. The Workbook_BeforeClose is running twice under certain condition (when a cell in active workbook sheet is blank ("")). I do not understand why it is running twice.
For condition where there is data in cell M10, this creates a whole other issue ( multiple running of mutliple various Subs) which I believe I should deal with in different thread/question.
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Worksheets("PanelSched").Activate
MsgBox "Test-Before close"
If Range("M10") <> "" Then
Dim PanelName As String
PanelName = Range("M10").Text
I have placed the following code in my spreadsheet but it's not working!
the code after option explicit (now at the bottom) works, (thanks to Andy on here!) but all the disabling the right click and cut/copy/paste etc doesn't.
I have a workbook with the following:
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Activate()
Application.CommandBars("Ply").Enabled = False
Application.ExecuteExcel4Macro "SHOW.TOOLBAR(""RIBBON"",FALSE)"
End Sub
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()
Application.CommandBars("Ply").Enabled = True
Application.ExecuteExcel4Macro "SHOW.TOOLBAR(""RIBBON"",TRUE)"
End Sub
All of a sudden my right-click isn't enabling when I reopen Excel. I can run the macro
Code:
Application.CommandBars("Ply").Enabled = True
once opened, but once I close it out again, the right-click is disabled.
is it possible to deactivate an activecell?
the following code works well i have a range of cells(e1:o17) i click on one of those cells to enter a score into (a2) the next cell i click enters a score into (b2) ok so far but if i need to enter the same score consecutively as needs to be done from time to time i cant do it because the cell is still active.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Range("d1") = Range("d1") + 1
If Range("D1") = 2 Then Range("a2") = ActiveCell.Value: Range("c2") = 501 - Range("a2")
If Range("D1") = 3 Then Range("a3") = ActiveCell.Value: Range("c3") = Range("c2") - Range("a3")
If Range("D1") = 4 Then Range("a4") = ActiveCell.Value: Range("c4") = Range("c3") - Range("a4")

I am aware that I can use single changing events in worksheet change events. For instance, if column 1, or A is changed, do something. This is only a single If statement, i.e. either the condition is true, or not. What I am not sure is if I can use two changing events, i.e. two conditions. For e.g. I would like if Column A value is X and Column B is "Active", action it, but only if two conditions are true.
For.e,g. The below syntax does not work. If it is only column A, it does work, but I want both A and B to be true, then copy and paste the target does not anything.
VB:
If Target.Column = 1 Then
If Target.Column = 2 Then
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A2:A" & Rows.Count)) Is Nothing Then
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B2:B" & Rows.Count)) Is Nothing Then
If Target.Value = "X" And Target.Value = "Active" Then
I have an excel sheet with date as the first column and all other data being numeric. I put in a code to increment by 1 everytime the user clicks on a cell, the contents within it. the code is below.
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B2:H100")) Is Nothing Then
Cancel = True
Range(Target.Address).Value = Val(Range(Target.Address).Value) + 1
End If
End Sub
This does its job for the time being, but I want to allow changes only to the row which has the current date and deactivate all other rows for any editing. So that if I click anywhere else but the row with the current date nothing happens.
I need to perform an action (unhide all columns) whenever I switch to a different worksheet.
Detail: I have a file with 2 tabs (worksheets). Tab 1 contains daily data, and when people are done with the current week they group and hide the columns for that week. This allows them to only view the new week and do an easy copy/paste into other applications. Tab 2 totals up the daily data from Tab 1 and shows monthly totals. The problem is that when they hide Tab 1 columns for past days, the formulas in Tab 2 don't "find" that hidden data. I would like to write a basic code that unhides all Tab 1 columns when I switch to Tab 2 so the formulas on Tab 2 reflect accurate totals. My thought is that it would be Worksheet code on Tab 1 using "Deactivate". I've tried to piece together different bits of code but can't get anything to work properly. I don't want them to have to run a macro or click a button, I'd like it to be automated when they switch tabs.
The following code does a sort on a worksheet whenever you click another sheet but it also returns you to the original sheet (where the sort takes place i.e. the sheet with Range "Sort1"). How do I get the code to do the sort but not keep returning to the sheet?

Application.Goto Reference:="Sort1"
Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("A3"), Order1:=xlAscending,
End Sub
I have an Offset of a range I am testing the value of with an If statement.

I have a number of buttons on a daashboard that run different macros.

why am I unable to create events on my worksheets? They were usually available to me when I selected "Worksheet" on the dropdown in vba.
When I open Excel, only "General" comes up in the drop down menu. What am I missing?
I've created an addin to reformat spreadsheets that I receive in a particular format. What I would like to do is enable events so that whenever a spreadsheet is opened the reformatting procedure is run (this also validates whether the spreadsheet is of the correct format).
I have created a class module with the following code (exactly as the Excel help):
Public WithEvents App As Application
Dim X As New EventClassModule
Sub InitializeApp()
Set X.App = Application
End Sub
Private Sub App_WorkbookOpen(ByVal Wb As Workbook)
SortE1Output 'This is my procedure that determines whether the
'spreadsheet is of the correct format and then reformats it
End Sub
"After you run the InitializeApp procedure, the App object in the class module points to the Microsoft Excel Application object, and the event procedures in the class module will run when the events occur."
When I try to make a call to the InitializeApp procedure in the auto_open procedure (in a different non-class module) I get a "compile error: sub or function not defined".

View 9 Replies View RelatedIn both instances I want to put a date stamp of the column immediately after the defined columns below.
The first issue is that when it runs the 1st change event, it only puts the date stamp in the top row of the column. The change in the "Inportedshapeall" column would almost always be brought about from range being copied from another column, however, I would still like a date stamp in every cell of the column.
The second issue comes about when I try to run the second change event. It simply seems to get stuck. I have tried Else, Else if, removing End ifs. I am not sure how best to define the events in order to ensure it loops through both.
