I created two macros. One for refreshing the data I pull from a database, and another one adding some formulas I need. On the formulas macro, I don't know how to have it automatically fill until the last row of data to the left of the column with the formula. (Just like if I double clicked it and it filled down automatically). I also tried to combine these two macros, but I get errors and they don't execute.
View 3 RepliesI have a workbook with two macros that the user can run individually. They unfortunately take a fair amount of time to complete (approx 1 hour each) so I implemented some timing related code that at the end of the macro completion, it notifies them with a msgBox indicating how long it took to run. With that said, I would like to allow the user to run a macro that simply calls the other two so that they can kick it off at the end of the day and they both will be finished by morning. I created a new macro that simply makes a call to each of the other macros individually. The problem is, my msgBox that displays after the first macro completes, waits for "OK" acknowledgement which defeats the whole purpose of being able to run them both via one macro. I have tried to include Application.DisplayAlerts = False prior to calling the first macro but it is not working. Here is an example of what I am trying to do.
Sub runAllMacros()
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Call compileBookData
Call compileLaborData
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
MsgBox "All Rollup Macros have completed execution."
I have a workbook with a 2 macros "PopulateSheetlist" and "SaveEditedversion"
Normally they are each button operated, and prompt the user with vbYesNo style options. I wanted to write a Macro, say "Macroautomatewkbk that would automatically answer the prompts.
Sub Macroautomatewkbk ()
Call PopulateSheetlist
' Always answer YES or OK to any prompts this macro may offer
Call SaveEditedversion
' Answer No for the 1st prompt and YES for the 2nd prompt
End Sub
MsgBox "Both macros "PopulateSheetlist" and "SaveEditedversion"
' Some error handler here, don't know how this should work exactly.
Could any one please explain how to fill in code in the commented sections in the above sample code?
Edit: I tried recording a macro to do the above, but it only showed the zooming and scrolling that occurred, none of the button prompts being answered.
I have created an XLA using a blank workbook which has a macro (called CompareMan) I have written within it.
I have written a utility (called INSTALLMAN) to install this add in.
When I run the install it creates and activates the add in OK.
The install also creates a toolbar with a button to trigger the macro.
Problem is, when I click the newly created button, no matter which workbook I am currently in I get a message ...
"The macro INSTALLMAN.xls!CompareMan cannot be found".
So my question is, how do I get my button to trigger the macro in my add in?
I am trying to call another macro, but instead of using the name of the macro, I have it in a variable. I am getting an error that says "Compile Error: Expected sub, Function, or Property." Can you call a macro that is in a variable? I basically have a bunch of macros created. I also have a list of the name of those macros on a worksheet in Excel. I want excel to start at the top of the list in excel and run the macro, then move down and run the next macro, and so on. Below is my code.
Sub Commercial_2005()
Dim Macroname As String
Workbooks("bleeg.xls").Activate
Worksheets("CommercialList").Select
Cells.Range("a1").Select
While ActiveCell.Value <> ""
Macroname = ActiveCell.Value
Workbooks("copy of recast_Report_v2.xls").Activate
Call Macroname
Workbooks("bleeg.xls").Activate
Worksheets("CommercialList").Select
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Wend
End Sub
I have a set of eight files, each of which is refreshed daily through a macro. I wanted to set up a master macro in a separate file that would open up each of the eight in turn, calls its refresh macro (which saves and closes the workbook), and then open up the next one, etc. I've searched the board and Help on this subject, but I keep getting an error:
Sub UpdateCSHoldReports()
' A sub to update all the US CS Hold Reports
' First, change the directory to the one that holds the files
ChDir "s:Marketing_ReportsCustomer Service2006CS Hold ReportsUSA"
' Next, open each file in turn, and run its refresh macro
' The refresh macro saves and closes the file automatically
Workbooks.Open ("VERIFICATION HOLDS 1000 PLUS.xls")
Workbooks("VERIFICATION HOLDS 1000 PLUS.xls").Activate
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(1).Activate
Application.Run ("VERIFICATION HOLDS 1000 PLUS.xls!V1000Refresh")
End Sub
I'm only working on one file right now; I'll add the others when I get this one going. The error message I get is "1004" "The macro VERIFICATION HOLDS 1000 PLUS.xls!V1000Refresh cannot be found." It occurs when the Application.Run statement attempts to execute.
What obvious thing am I missing here? I have checked all the spellings, etc., so it's not something like that.
I'm writing some code in a "control" Excel file that will open a series of other files and successively run some processes. Each of these files has its own unique "refresh" macros, with parameters that vary from file to file.
How do I put code in my "control" file that will, when it opens each of these other files, run the "refresh" macro that is contained within them, and not the "control" file itself?
I have been combining multiple macro's into one large Macro and after research, it seems that only the call function works without any hitches.
Is there a way to use the call feature in one workbook while the macro's themselves, 5 or 6 of them, are in another workbook that is closed?
All users would have access to both workbooks.
The reason I am trying this is because I do not want all the other users to have to choose between multiple macro's and some of my colleagues like to use a radio button to link to the workbook. so it needs to have one file in it...
At the moment I have a macro that is assigned to a button. When clicked, it creates a newline, create and copy a column in another sheet. This code works fine :
[Code] ......
What I now want to do is make a cell called "Total Number of Sites" and allow user to input data into "D3" manualy. eg if 3 sites, user input 3 in D3 so D3 = 3.
Since total number of sites = 3, Instead of clicking that button I made 3 times, I want to call the macro 3 times using a nother button.
However it doesn't work. This is what I used:

I'm hoping there is some way to call whatever text is stored in the "alt text" field of images placed in an excel sheet for use as a variable / string reference in a macro.
The "alt text" will not be changed in any way by the macro.
I've assigned a single macro to numerous Form Checkboxes (not ActiveX). I'd like the macro to be able to identify the Checkbox calling it, so that if for example, if it were fired by clicking "Check Box 41", the macro should know that.
Is this possible, or must I use an ActiveX control?
how I can go back to the worksheet I was in before I branched off to work in another worksheet via a macro?
I know you can tell the macro which worksheet to go to, but not sure how to get vb to remember where I was and return to the same sheet (or even cell).
I had create a few macro with the macro name the same as the worksheet name.
How can i create another macro to loop through all the worksheet and if there is any data in Cell A1, it will call the corresponding macro. If there is no data, it will go onto another worksheet.
Using a different script application, I would like to run my VBA macros while working in Excel. I was wondering if I could achieve that using PostMessage or SendMessage calls. Part of the problem is that Excel only seems to allow either Ctrl + letter or Ctrl + Shift + letter as an assignable macro shortcut. My script gives me flexibility in that I can assign any key or combination of keys to trigger any kind of routine, like a PostMessage call, for instance. So while working on my workbook, I might want to press, say, ScrollLock followed by a letter of my choice, followed by another letter of my choice (a sort of super shortcut), resulting in the running of a Macro of my choice in Excel.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a macro running in a workbook that gathers some data (a date, a string and a few arrays). Towards the end of this macro, I need it to open another workbook and run a macro that sits in this other workbook, using the data from the first workbook. I then need it to return some results (several integers) back to the first macro to be pasted into the first workbook.
I gather that I can't use 'Call' as the second macro is in another workbook.
I've found that I can use Application.Run but I'm unsure how to carry variables back and forth using this.
How to move the variables between macros / workbooks using the Application.Run option, or maybe another way of doing things?
the macro works fine until it executes the paste values. At that point, the macro jumps to the "CountThem" function which is located in another workbook. The data that I am copy/pasting is in no way connected to any cells that are using that function. Although, other values in the workbook are passed down from data that uses that function.
I am still in the dark ages using Excel 2000.
This is the code for my macro.
Code:
Sub Current_to_Raw()
'
' Current_to_Raw Macro
' Macro recorded 2/12/2014 by

Range("N14").Select

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have this macro which runs great, but I would like to add a date formula to it before it auto fits the columns. I need cell E5 to Increase its date by 1 month to the last day of month from G5. For examply if g5 reads 2/28/07 I want a formula that will make e5 3/31/07 for every sheet.
Maybe something like this =DATE(YEAR(g5),MONTH(g5)+2,0). but I don't know how to put it in the macro to run on every sheet (except the ones I excluded.)

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet with 2 columns (let's pretend), the first column uses Data Validation for a dropdown list. The second column contains a formula that references the 1st column and uses lookup:
=IF(A35<>0;LOOKUP(A35;NewCons;NewGroups))
So as soon as a value is selected in column A, column B changes to display a value.
Rather than just displaying this value, I would like the cell in column B to be completely replaced by this value, so goodbye to the formula.
Is there a way that I can do this? Will I need to go and study how to use macros?
AS per the attchement, I add a date in the cell H2 and when I select in the cell I2 the date in the column K changes as per the =IF formula..
My question is the following: Would it be possible, once I select the option in I2 to have the formulas in the column K changed for value? I put a example recording a macro!
HTML Code:Â
Range("K2:K4").Select
Selection.Copy
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
I really wish to have that automaticaly done once I select the option in I2 without running manually a button.
I once heard that in order for a macro to insert a formula you must double all the quotations. Anyway, i did so in the following macro but i got an error message.

In essence, this macro looks at column A, and at every instance of a value it either creates a new sheet within the workbook, names it, the copies the entire row OR if there is a sheet already just copies the entire row.
I have a data input worksheet, which uses the following code to fill in the missing zeros when cells are empty.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to record a macro that will filldown a formula through a specific range of cells (like G2:g729).
View 2 Replies View Relatedi need a macro to insert the formula i have in Column M row 3, and insert it all the way down to the last letter that is contained in column k. So in this example The Last Letter in Column K is AQ, ( i dont physically mean last i mean last in alphabetical order in excel , such as ( W X Y Z, AB, AC , AD ) AD would be last.
So since AQ is last it would insert the formula 43 times, which is AQ. THe AFter tab should clear any confusion up because this is how it looks finished. I use various sheets like this so the last letter changes, so having this macro be dynamic and not attached to a sheet name would be ideal.
I am using the following Control Shift Enter (CSE) formula to find a value.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been having a problem with the worksheet (attached) and was wondering if anyone could give me any help.
I will explain the purpose of the sheet etc first and what it does at the moment:
This work sheet is to record peoples projects, hours related to those projects, and calculate their availability 37.5-(project hours+pto) for Belfast and dublin and 40-(project hours+pto) for chicago, and also their utilization which is =((37.5-Availability)/37.5)*100 for belfast and Dublin and ((40-Availability)/40)*100 for Chicago.
When a project is added I am currently going in and updating the formula for that person to incorporate the new row which their project is on, this is proving to be quite time consuming, and I was wondering if there were any macro’s that could be used so that it would search for a name on the first column and use each of the hours that are in the column for the given week to calculate the availability?
The utilization is not a big problem as it just uses the availability so as long as the availability is correct then the utilization is correct..
If there is not a macro do you know of any way this can be automated so that I do not manually have to add to formula for each cell when a new row is added with a project and hours?
