Can't Stop Macro Running At Set Time

Apr 28, 2006

I wanted to run a macro at 08:00 each day. I tested the macro would auto start and run, and set the test to start at 13:00.

In the Private module of the Workbook I put

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application .OnTime TimeValue("08:00:00"), "MyMacro"
End Sub

and in a standard module

Sub TestTimeMacro()
Application.OnTime TimeValue("08:00:00"), "MyMacro"
End Sub

Initially I had the TimeValue set as 13:00:00. The test worked OK so I changed the timevalue to 08:00:00.

The macro now runs at 08:00 and 13:00.

How do I stop the 13:00 event?

Stop Macro Running After Specfied Time Period

Oct 17, 2007

I'm opening a workbook and then running the macro in the workbook. The problem is I would like to build a "timeout" feature if the macro is running too long (as some of the macro's this will run can take days to complete) but I don't know how to run the macro asynchronously. Also I need to know if i can get it to run asynchronous is there an event that will tell me when the process is finished. The calling application of the macro is written in VB6 and opening excel workbooks to run the macros out of. also the "timeout" feature must be done from the VB6 application it cannot be edited into the the workbooks containing the macro.

Macro To Stop Running At Last Row

Aug 10, 2009

I have a spreadsheet containing a macro to automatically sum values from week to week and display the max/min and average. This is almost fully working. The problem I have is the macro copies the sum formula down the page and doesn't stop at the last row. It always adds one or two extra rows. The formula should stop at row 77 however this does not happen and therefore the sum keeps going. Which in turn, distorts the max/min figures.

Stop Userform Running Macro

May 14, 2007

I currently have a userform that runs a bunch of code for me. There are a lot of listboxes on the userform that have rowsources of various dynamic named ranges. I'm running into a problem when I have the used click the "Remove Item" button from the userform. Normally it is supposed to go back to the sourcerow and remove all of the cells that contain values that are selected in the listbox.

The code for removing the cells works just fine, however when it deletes a cell, for some reason the code executes a private sub that is in a different sheet. I can't figure out why and it's messing up my macro.

Here's the

FROM USERFORM:

Private Sub cmdAIRemove_Click()

For i = 0 To lbAISummary.ListCount - 1
If lbAISummary.Selected(i) = True Then
For Each cItem In Worksheets("Lists").Range("YourAI")
If lbAISummary.List(i) = cItem.Value Then
cItem.Delete (xlUp) '<- right after this line it jumps to NWSMonth_Change
i = i - 1
End If
Next cItem
End If
Next i
End sub...

Automate Macro Start On Time & Stop At Later Time

Dec 25, 2007

Can I adapt this code so that users receive the alert if they try and go to the next field without filling in the required ones, or - better - to combine it with a code that does not run a macro, but instead gives the alert, if the required fields have been missed. (I don't require anything to do with printing, this was the closest code I could find)

Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
If Sheet1. Range("A1").Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Cannot print until required cells have been completed!"
Cancel = True
End If

Running Macro After A Specified Time

Sep 14, 2006

I have a macro that would run once the workbook is opened. This macro would then open another excel file to get updates then close it. Now this file is also being accessed by other persons in the network but just for a split second. Since an opened file would result into an error, what proper codes should I add so that if the file is currently in use, the macro would then run again after 5 seconds and would do the same thing until the file is ready? This is what I have so far. All in the standard module.

Sub Updater()
Dim updatePath As String
updatePath = Worksheets("Entries"). Range("E104")
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Workbooks.Open (updatePath)
On Error Goto Errorhandler
Workbooks("APTupdater.xls").Close True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Exit Sub

I am new to the whole MACRO VBA thing and I am desperately trying to learn. So this is the Situation. I recorded a macro of an If statement on a row. very simple. Some of the rows below ( Like 700) need the same formula that I recorded. I would like to highlight the cells that need the formula and run the macro on them. however the macro only runs one at a time. Is there a way that this can be avoided?

Stop Combobox Sub Running?

Mar 7, 2014

I have a large macro called SplitData, which takes a load of data and splits it and reformats it each month.

I have 4 Activex Control combo boxes on one sheet that are linked to a range...this range changes each month, so I blank out the range and then repopulate.

My problem is that when I blank out the range, it triggers the Private Sub ComboBox1_Change() and throws some errors because there is no data to select.

So, I was wondering if there is something I can set in my SpltData macro that will not run the ComboBox1_Change sub while the SplitData macro is running?

If Statement To Stop Dim Code From Running

Apr 29, 2014

Attached is an example of the program. The purpose of this program is to allow someone with very little knowledge about the information to enter data. The first tab labeled "Instructions" is will have two macros assigned to the buttons at the bottom of the page. The first macro labeled "Move Data" will move data will clear data in the shaded cell on the "Entry Form" sheet and fill those cells in with '----. The second macro labeled "Generate and Save" will save a master copy of the program, save a historical copy of the program by date, and print/save a pdf copy of the "Reports" sheet.

Each one of the historical (the last 8 sheets of the program) sheet receives data from the "Entry Form" and then moves the data by date into the table for archiving purposes.

If you look at the code for the "Entry Form". I have a couple of subs. The first being Worksheet_change. the first section of this code is to force certain cells to be uppercase. This part of the code is working fine. The second part of the code is the Dim MyValues. This part is working fine also, but...

My issue is... When I run the move data macro from the "Instructions" sheet the Dim MyValues reads these as changes to the cells and wants to push the data to the historical sheets.

What I would like is an IF Statement above the Dim MyValues part of this code that stops the Dim MyValue part of the code running if those values are blank, 0, or have '---- entered into them.

Stop Macros Automatically Running At Predetermined Intervals

May 15, 2007

I am using a macro that automatically updates data obtained through a DDE link at 5 second intervals. My code is based off of the article "Automatically Run Macros at a Set Time or Date" found on the Ozgrid FAQs found here: http://www.ozgrid.com/Excel/run-macro-on-time.htm

However, I have this macro execute when I activate a Form Button, not when the workbook opens. So far, this macro works perfectly, and I have no problems. Although, I'd also like to include a Form button to STOP the macro from automatically running if the user chose to do so. How exactly would I go about making this STOP button?

VBA Only Highlights One Cell At A Time And Won't Stop Email From Going Out

Jul 30, 2014

Trying to use VBA to prevent users from sending a form unless all fields have been completed, then highlight blank cells, and send a pop-up message that all cells in myRange need to be filled out. Otherwise, send the worksheet.

My code will highlight the blank cells, but it only highlights one cell at a time and then I have to click on the pop-up message for it to highlight the next one, and then the email still goes out.

How can I fix this to highlight all the blank cells at once, with only one pop-up message, and prevent the email from going out?

Public bCheck As Boolean
Sub SendWorkSheet()

For Next Loop Running Only One Time

Feb 22, 2014

Here is the image 1 after selecting one of element in listbox and then if I click delete material (commandbutton).

It has to delete the select material in sheet 2 and has to cut the element below and move to 1 row above as shown in figure 2.

At the same time it has to delete the entire respective column and remaining column has to be cut and place in column before in sheet 3 as shown in figure 3

For that I had wrote the program which is below

Private Sub CommandButton5_Click()
Dim i, j, k, m, n As Integer
i = ListBox1.ListIndex
j = Sheet2.Cells(1, 39).Value
k = j - i

[Code] ....

When I click the delete commandbutton5 the result is as shown in figure below

In sheet2

In sheet 3

For loop is running only one time after that it got terminated. If I split the 1st for loop and execute it.it is running nice what I meant to do. If I combine another for loop or If I add msgbox at top it misbehaving. I tried with do while loop also it also doing same thing.

Show (copy) Data At X Time And Stop Update?

Sep 2, 2012

I have two sheets. In the first sheet, I have cell F4 is 00:00:00 (countdown). G9, G10 and G11 are cells that receive data (decimal numbers) live. In the second sheet, I have three cells linked from shhet1 G9 ='Sheet1'!G9, G10 ='Sheet1'!G10, G11 ='Sheet1'!G11 (which update themselve when data is modified in the first sheet). Now I want to set in sheet 2, (assume) cells B9, B10 and B11 to show me (copy) the values from G9, G10 and G11 from sheet 1 when the countdown was 00:00:05 (5 seconds before Start) and not update again if the data changes in the cell it pulled the data from.

Like G9 ='Sheet1'!G9 at 00:00:05 and stop here, do not update anything. OK?

I can do a part, but the real problem is: I can not make it stop cells to update.Stand frozen, freeze, not move, calm .. however. I do not want to seem pretentious (but my knowledge in excel are limited), the most appropriate would be a formula, not macro or VBA, if possible..

Calculate Start / Stop Time And Also Include Date

Mar 13, 2014

I have a small project at work where I am being asked to put a simple spread sheet that will calculate a start/stop time - and also include the date. For example:

Start time 5pm, date: 3/13. The spread sheet to auto calculate what the stop time and date will be if a specific amount of hours is to be calculated. For example in this case, 12 hours. From calculating in my head that would be 5am the following day. However, how can I get this in excel to work and therefore all i would have to do is enter the start time and date, + 12 hrs, and excel would calculate the time/date after the additional 12 hrs.
