Can A Message Box Be Brought Up In The Middle Of Code Asking For Criteria?
Jun 28, 2009
I have a worksheet with several columns (30+). One of these columns is "Date Opened". This "date opened" column can have dates as early as 01/01/89 and as recent as today.
Can a macro be made that does this
1. Data/Sorts the whole worksheet by the "Date opened" column
2. Brings up a message box in xx/xx/xxxx where format saying "Please enter the earliest date opened you would like to use, all other rows will be deleted"
3. Do just that, delete all rows that have a date earlier than the date entered in the message box.
So if the date of 01/01/2009 were entered into the message box, the macro would delete all dates in the "Date Opened" column that were older than that date.
And then, continue on with the rest of the sub, if neccessary.
I have a large workbook that contains hundreds of account codes and values. For example, cell A2 contains the account code "55021357122 Global Business Sales", cell A3 contains code "55021753221 Global Business Purchases" and so on through the column. Column B contains the values.
I need a formula that will sum all the values in column B if the middle 2 number are "21" (positions 4 & 5 in the number). My current range for column A is A6:A366. I've tried SumIFs but that fails on the array because it fails on the MID function.
I would like it to return a different cell value in the message box, for example if J4 has passed its date, then B4 cell value is put in the message box instead.
I have a spreadsheet that monitors employees rest periods between shifts across a number of weeks I've started writing a very basic piece of code so if the employee has less than 12 hours rest, a message box will appear with a warning:
So far this is what I've done:
Sub RestHours() If Range("I7") < #12:00:00 PM# Then MsgBox "Candidate has had less than 12 hours rest since last shift worked. Please find another candidate to work this shift", vbOKOnly, "Unable to Use Candidate!"
Now this does work if I run the macro and then enter the data into cell I7, however I'm now stumped - How can I make it so that this message box pops up automatically when the data is entered into the cell without me have to go in and run the macro?
I also need the macro to run all the way down the I column (I7:I100) and across other columns which will eventually contain the same data i.e. M7:M100, Q7:Q100, all the way across to AT7:AT100?
Could I get the code for creating a message pop up in case a particular character is typed in a cell. eg Typing in "3" should throw a pop up msg saying "Not allowed"
I have created a sheet that calculates a score. Based on that score a determination is made to do one of three things - Nothing, Peer/Manager Review, Review Required.
In addition it was requested now that I make an overall decision for "Review Required" based on multiple triggers. My thought was to create a table from outputs of each element on another sheet, and then trigger off the table. What I am stuck on is using the multiple choices to trigger the message - Below are the choices of which each or a combination of each should trigger "Review Required" Calculate Review Required
Total Score 'Review Required Element 1 " Element 2 " Element 3" Element 4" Element 5" Element 6" Element 7" Element 8" Element 9" Element 10" Element 11" Element 12" Element 13 " Element 14 '20 or more = reveiw Element 15 '20 or more = reveiw Element 16 '20 or more =review Element 17 'Sum 20 Total of above if less than 20 in each
Does anyone know the code I would use to input a message box into a spreadsheet that says "Do NOT click on this cell" when a user clicks on cell C5? I only want this message to come up if the user click on cell C5.
A B C D 1 DATE EMP NAME EMP CODE SHOE 2 01/01/09 20029 1 3 01/01/09 30463 1 4 04/01/09 10103 5 12/01/09 10036 1 6 12/01/09 10166 1 7 12/01/09 30465 1 Now what I want is that an employee shall not be entitled to take more than one shoe in next one year from the date of last issue. In that case if again the person claims, a message will appear " Not Entitled."
I am using an input box to enter the value of column D. After the value of column D is entered, I want a message box that displays the corresponding data in column A and B. with the vba coding?
This seems easy in theory but it's above my head. I have written code to add text and numbers from a userform to certain cells on a worksheet. Now, is it possible to display a message box after the code executes to acknowledge the code has executed successfully? I have tried simply adding the Msgbox function at the end of the code but that does not work.
I have this VBA code running in cell A1 which gives you a yes/no message box when you try to change the selected cell. I am trying to have the Target.Address = 'Specific Header Cell in Table' but I am not able to develop the code to do so. Here is the code:
[Code] .....
The main reason I have this message box is to prevent the user from changing the cell in the table because the titles in the tables are linked to macros. If they are changed, the macros will not run. Also, I am aware there are codenames for the excel sheets in a workbook. If there are codenames for the header titles in an excel table, I could link my macros to the codenames. As a result, I would not need this macro for the message box.
I just want to see if this is possible, here is the code but what I want is a message box that display how long cetain code has taken to run.
I have most of what I need I just need to figure out how to take one varaible away from another to give the run time... but no idea where to start with it.
Private Type SYSTEMTIME wYear As Integer wMonth As Integer wDayOfWeek As Integer wDay As Integer wHour As Integer wMinute As Integer wSecond As Integer wMilliseconds As Integer End Type
Private Declare Sub GetSystemTime Lib "kernel32" (lpSystemTime As SYSTEMTIME) Public Function TimeToMillisecond() As String.........
I have a dropdown list in my spreadsheet, on the list is Compound, Pay by Check, Internal Transfer, and ACH. I would like a message box to pop up with a message when anything except Compound is selected. The cell is d38.
I have code to open another workbook and run a specific macro. I plan to then take that and copy it over to my workbook.
The problem I am encountering is when I run this macro, at the end of the code, a form/msg pops up stating it is complete. This then automatically stops my code from running (from my original workbook). How do I close this form in order to keep my code running?
I have a spreadsheet with a number of fields on it which must be filled in before the file can be saved, and if the user attempts to close the spreadsheet without filling in the required fields, I want a message box to appear asking for confirmation that the user wishes to quit, if yes, the sheet exits, if no, the sheet remains open
I have a spreadsheet set up to automate calculations and control data input for in process quality control checks. The spreadsheet is basically a series of input boxes requesting information from the user. To control the input of part numbers I have some code for a userform which populates listbox within the userform from another closed spreadsheet (opens & closes without updating screen) & enters the selected data from the listbox into a selected cell in the spreadsheet
all the input boxes and calculations are working well, the userform works well, BUT when I include the userform within the code I get the following problem, an error saying that I am trying to change data in a protected cell where data has been entered and then protected by the VB code, even though the code is not trying to change the cell.
I have tried just loading and unloading the userform and everything works well, it only fails when I actually use the userform, and then close it. from this I am fairly sure the problem lies within the form so I have been through the form code line by line and deleted anything that is not vital and the problem persists. Here is the form
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim Msg, Style, Title, Help, Ctxt, Response, MyString Dim Part As String
Part = ActiveSheet.Range("B1") Msg = "Are you sure you want Part No" & vbNewLine & Part ' Define message. Style = vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton2 ' Define buttons. Title = "SELECT PART No." ' Define title.
Response = MsgBox(Msg, Style, Title) If Response = vbYes Then ' User chose Yes. Set_Data_1 ' Perform some action.................
code that will be able to lookup a cell in Column J of Sheet1 by using a lookup value on Sheet2. The lookup value can be any cell in columns B, D, F, H, J, K, or N on Sheet2. The tricky part is, I want the result of this lookup (the result comes from Column H of Sheet1) to be placed as a data validation input message for the cell directly to the right of the lookup value when this cell is clicked.
For Example: Lookup Value is "416991" which lies in cell N8 on Sheet2. Look it up in Column J of Sheet1 and return the appropriate value "X" from Column H of Sheet1. "X" will then appear as an input message when cell O8 of Sheet2 is clicked.
I cannot figure out how to get my error handler to work, or actually, not work. It seems to work fine when there is an error, but the code still gets read even when there was not an error. Basically, I am trying to open a file, which may or may not be there. When it is not there I want a message to pop up informing the user. However, when the file is there and it opens, the error handler still gives the message box. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
Private Sub btnOK_Click() Application. ScreenUpdating = False Dim LCSfile As String LCSfile = frmSelectFile.Listbox1.Value On Error Goto ErrHandler Workbooks.Open Filename:=sPath & sDate & "" & LCSfile & "QUANT.CSV" ErrHandler: MsgBox ("File is not quantitated. Please select another file.") Application.ScreenUpdating = True
I want to get out of a loop in the middle of it, with out going out from the whole procedure.
By the way, is there is possibility to send him to other location in the code instead of going out of the loop?
Do While ( Cells(counter, 5).Value = 1) 'some commands If R(1) >= 0.83 * R(2) Then 'some commands Else ' here I want it to go out of the loop, ' but not to get out of the whole porcedure End If counter = counter + 1 Loop
An application I use at work exports names in a first name-last name format. At this point I have a list of about 315 names in this format. Is there a way I can convert these names to a last name-first name format? I need to export these data on a daily basis, so I'll need to perform this conversion every day. I did a search for this, but didn't find anything.
I have a worksheet with some names in a column with a persons first name then the second name and I would like to place the names in a different column I can have this to work ok with the following formula
=MID(A1&" "&A1,FIND(" ",A1)+1,LEN(A1))
This works ok but I have people with three names like Peter May Jones
When I have changed the name I would like to have (Jones, Peter May) but I get (May Peter Jones)
Also the colon I have after the first name gets put at the end of the name not after the last name.
I have code that copies data from one tab, called "Report" - to another tab called "Master". The data in the "Report" tab is actually 2 reports. Both reports have the exact same format but are separated by 1 or 2 blank rows and a Heading row. Before I run the code, I have to delete the blank rows and middle heading row.
I was wondering if there is code that could find these rows and delete them.
The row that I delete has the following values (which are headings): Col 1, 2, 3. The populated columns are A - L
