Bring Chart To The Front VBA Code?
Nov 20, 2012I have chart object in the sheet. I wrote code that makes the cart big, but it is not on top of other things. I need to add a snippet of the code that would make it "bring to the front".

View 1 RepliesWhat I have is a sheet with Command Buttons on, and one of them when clicked launches another application which has a log in screen.
I can't for the life of me get it to bring that application log in window in front of the excel application when it runs.
I have tried various ways of sending Excel to the back once the button is clicked, but just can't get it to work.
Ideally, once clicked the new application log in window will come up in front of excel, and set focus on the Password box, is this impossible to do just from inside excel?

I've got a macro that searches & opens a most recent file. I'm trying to figure a simple way to bring to the front the workbook which is opened by the macro.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI work as a data administrator in a high school in England. I've only been doing the job for about 8 months but a lot of the processes we go through could be better automated via the use of macros in Excel and Word.
Basically we have school grade reports that come from our MIS database that are stored as a Word template, which are then exported into Word as an .xml file. However, they don't come with the photographs of the students on the reports, so we have a Word List Report with every student photo (split into year groups) and run the following macro, which allows you to pick a folder where the reports are stored and match the photo to the report via the school admission number. It is then inserted into the report using a Word bookmark to place it in the top left corner.
VB:
Sub InsertPhoto()
Dim myFile, myFileNewName As String
Dim PathToUse As String [code]....
This works fine but I would like to be able to automatically format the photos so that they have 'In Front Of Text' wrapping, which we need to keep the templates from messing up. It would also save me accessing nearly 1000 school reports and manually editing each photo.
I have an Excel chart graphing two data records. As the data points cross, one is in "back" and one is in "front". I would like to reverse the current layout. Is this possible?

View 5 Replies View Relatedto write a code that would create a chart automatically in another worksheet when a button is clicked.
I have attached the sample data that I am working on.
Each row in the sheet represent 3 coordinates, which are:
coordinate # 1 = start, 0
coordinate # 2 = centre, level
coordinate # 3 = end, 0
These charts are generated via a macro and have to be aligned using VBA.
The charts look fine on my screen bu their alignments and position are messed up when another person uses it on another computer.
This is the code i am using to align the charts
chartwidth = 300
chartheight = 200
With ActiveSheet.Shapes("Chart 1")
.Width = chartwidth * 2 + 10
.Height = chartheight
End With
With ActiveSheet.Shapes("Chart 2")
.Width = chartwidth
.Height = chartheight
End With
With ActiveSheet.Shapes("Chart 3")
.Width = chartwidth
.Height = chartheight
End With
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Chart 1").IncrementLeft -128.25
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Chart 1").IncrementTop -75

I have a program that updates values quarterly when run. The spreadsheet that it works with also contains a couple of pie charts that correspond to the updated data. the charts only have one series with category values. I recorded a macro to see the code excel uses for creating a new chart and tried to modify the statements to my needs but have been running into runtime error 1004 ("Method ' Cells' of Object '_Global' failed"). The code is as follows I don't have any trouble until the last two statements.
Sub Chart_Updater()
Sheets(Chart1var).Select
With ActiveChart
.HasTitle = True
If Chart1var = "COLI VUL 1 Fund Chart" Then
.ChartTitle.Text = "COLI VUL 1 Allocation by Fund Provider " _
& sday & "-" & sday & "-" & Lyear
ElseIf Chart1var = "COLI VUL 2 Fund Chart" Then
.ChartTitle.Text = "COLI VUL 2 Allocation by Fund Provider " _
& sday & "-" & sday & "-" & Lyear
ElseIf Chart1var = "COLI VUL 7 Fund Chart" Then
.ChartTitle.Text = "COLI VUL 7 Allocation by Fund Provider " _
The variables fundtr1, fundtr2, and emptycolvar are public, and are all returning values, so there is no problem there. Also I can't use ranges like "A1:F7" because the range needs to be variable.
I am in the middle of building a macro for some data to be automated. I have two sheets, one of which has an existing chart but the data has been removed so now there is no values on the chart. I then have a second sheet with data on it. The range is b4:c16. I want to point this data onto my chart on the other sheet.

Im using this formula but want to add ROI in front. =sum(t1/q1)
What is the notation?
very complex spreadsheet for weight & balance calculations. It's to the point where everything works perfectly in Excel 2007, but it must be used primarily with Excel 2003. Discovered that a crashing problem had to do with condtional formatting, that's all been cleared and will soon be fixed, but there's one that I just can't quite figure out.
I'm using the worksheet change event to trigger the update of charts... In this case, it's looking at a particular cell that has data validation on a dropdown as the trigger. Works perfectly in 2007, and if I put a msgbox prompt in to be launched by a change of that cell, it launches. I can put the chart update code in a separate sub and launch it manually every time, but I cannot call it from the worksheet change.
I've included attachments showing what I believe are the relevant bits of code -
In VBA, how to add a secondary x-axis in the lower portion of the chart if I already have the primary axis in the upper part?
This code
ActiveChart.HasAxis(xlCategory, xlSecondary) = True
just adds it to the upper if I have the primary at lower.

View 4 Replies View Relatedhow I would go about writing a macro that would pop up if a value in a certain cell is greater than a set value. For example, if the cell b1 has a value of >50, I would want an alert box to pop up saying "Over Range". Ideally this should be automatic as soon as another value is entered into cell a1.
View 9 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know if there's a way to color code points on a scatter chart based on their values in a "3rd dimension" (i.e. other than the 2 dimensions represented by the chart axes).
You might imagine a scatter chart that plots transactions by price (y) and units purchased (x).
In that scenario, it might also be nice to color code each point by the region that made the sale.
The only way I know to do this is to manually create separate columns of data for each region, so that each region can be plotted on the scatter chart as a separate data series.
But since I'd like to experiment with several color coding alternatives, I'm wondering if there isn't a simpler way...
For instance, Rob Bovey's "XY Chart Labeler" can add data point labels to a scatter chart...
Is there, perhaps, another add-in that might enable color coding of data points based on a 3rd set of values?
I have a project coming up where I will receive tables in a certain format. I want to be able to create a macro that well create a chart based on a single inputted cell (start of data). The chart will have 4 series and five values per series. See the link below for sample data! The first data point is not in the same place in the sheet, but the table will have the rest of the data relative to that!
