1. Can a Subroutine be called from within a user-defined Public Function? How?
2. Is there a difference between calling a subroutine with a 'Call Sub_Name' statement, vs. calling the subroutine with an 'Application.Run'(?? or similar) statement?
I have a question. Can this be done. Pass a couple of varibles back from a called sub routine?
The calling sub calls the called sub does which has code plus a couple of varibles needing to come back.
Scope: The called sub is a series of case statements with code and sets varibles which are needed back in the calling sub.
In these lines of code I am adding hyperlinks to cells in a row. It shows my steps recorded but since there are some 4,000 cells I need a macro to do it automagically. The target cells are in sequential worksheets but in each case follow the sane pattern (i.e. P2, H3, X3, D4, etc.). Could I capture this routine for each sheet by the sub for each? If so how?
Range("B2").Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, address:="", SubAddress:= _
"'Max tree base'!P2", TextToDisplay:="'Max tree base'!P2"
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, address:="", SubAddress:= _
"'Max tree base'!H3", TextToDisplay:="'Max tree base'!H3"

Function being called at inappropriate time
I have the following code in the active worksheet:
I have a series of procedures I am calling from a function that each run fine when executed individually. These procedure are titled: DataValidation, Test1, Test2
The function will not run past Test2- I do not get the msgbox "Stage 2"
Code:
Public ArrayD
Public ArrayD2 As Variant
Public RngD3 As Range
Public Function Test(arg2 As Range)
DataValidation arg2

I have a macro that calls functions from another workbook.
For example:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal target As Range)
If ThisWorkbook.OpenCommon <> -1 Then _
Application.Run Workbooks("common.xls").name & "!Arkusz1.CellChange", target
End Sub
But when I get an error in CellChange function from "common.xls" workbook, debugger points only to the third line of the code above, not to the bad line in called function.
Is there any way to change this behaviour (maybe some tool etc.)?
I have a function in a cell triggered on the value returned by a DDE link in another cell.
e.g. cell A1 contains =function1(A2) and cell A2 contains
=ADVFN|NYSE_CAT!CUR
function1 is triggered each time the DDE link updates regardless of whether the result returned has changed or not. How do I prevent function1 being triggered if the returned value has not changed?
I'm trying to replicate the same functionality using Excel Analyzer that Lotus 123 had with it's function called Backsolver.
Below is a simple matirx of expenses, that shows a sum total of 3297. I want to change the number 3297 to 5000 and I want the rows and columns to add up to that total based on the same % relationship that existed when this matrix added to 3297
This technique is useful when you are trying to spread changes in a plan and you need to develop placeholders that add up and accross to the new target i.e, 5000 based on the previous targets % relationships that existed when the row and columns added up to 3297
I can use the analyzer, but when it finds its solution it returns negative values as part of the solution. I'm missing something in trying to set the parameters so that it won't return me negative #'s.
i need to create a function macro Called FSTD that inserts words into a cell and conditionally formats them depending on th number in the cell on the left.
in the sheet there are ranges that the number will fall between.
Example
Cell B1 is the cell were i want to run the function in
Cell A1 is the cell with the number that is used in the function
Cells A3:A7 are that ranges that i need to use in the function
E.g. if the number in A1 is less than A6 = i want "P" to appear in the cell with a red backround
if the number is greater than A6 but less than A5 = i want "M" to apear with an orange back round
if the number is Greater than A5 but less than A4 = i want "E" to apear with a green backround
even if it is possible to do without changing the backrounds, just to insert the letters
I have written a user-defined function that searches for a small range within a larger range. The function requires two input parameters: the range you are looking for, and the range you want to look within.
For example, I might look for the string of values in cells A1:D1 in a larger range E1:H20. The function returns the row number in the larger range where the smaller range is found.
My problem is this: The function is working fine when I call it from another sub procedure. However, when I try to run it as a worksheet function, I get a "#VALUE!" error. The function pops up in the "insert function" menu, and it prompts for the two input parameters.
I am trying to use the simplest code possible (being a novice) to execute a macro which makes a copy of Cell A1:A4 and paste its values to Cells B1:B4 if cell B5=1 (or whatever). The Macro with copy and paste works (I recorded it and in my testing it was ok). And also the function, that contains If-Then status of cell B5, works and calls correctly the Macro.
Yet when the macro is called by the function (=CopyMyCells(B5)), the Macro (MacroCopy) runs - I tested this with a Msgbox - but stops just in doing what I need, i.e. in doing the copy-paste process. Here the code which is placed in a module of the proper Worksheet (Excel 2003, on WinXPSp3):

View 2 Replies View RelatedSuppose I have this UDF:
Public Function test()
test = ActiveCell.Column
End Function
This is great only when I evaluate the function test() one cell at a time. When I copy this formula to other cells or perform autofill Excel thinks that the active cell is the first cell in the series.
What I really want is for the function to return the column of the CELL that contains the function, and not the cell that's last clicked.
VBA jumps out of my called subroutine which is stored in a Module halfway.
When I call the SortLec() sub, it runs until y1 = Application.Match(MC & "-" & CI, rng, 0), and then it just jumps back to the SUB commandbutton1_click() IF statement. Why is it that VBA skips the rest of the code from my sub?

in writing a subroutine that needs to ask the user
1) tax file number
2) Income
3) tax withheld
It then needs to use a function that i already made called 'incometax' that calculates 'taxpayable' and use that to calculate taxreturn (difference between 'taxpayable' and 'taxwithheld').
I then need it to output like this in a message box
Estimate for tax file number: .....

Total income: ......
Tax witheld: .......

Is calling a subroutine within another different than running it from the play button in the VB editor? I am getting different results.
I have the following code that I want to call from another subroutine that creates a series of command buttons.
Sub DynamicButtons()
Dim ButtonCount As Integer
Dim ctl As OLEObject
' Create the Button objects
ButtonCount = 0
For Each ctl In Sheets("Sheet1").OLEObjects .............
Is it possible to refer to an object which is in another subroutine?
Or should i have to give its definition in each sub i need it?
I need to allocate an existing subroutine (its code below) to a new button I'd like to add to my sheet. Two questions arise: to use "form control" or "activeX"?, also should I redfine the first line of the code?

My code defines a variable: newrow. Then I call a subroutine using the Call command.
The subroutine does not recognize newrow.
It says it has value zero. How can I pass the value of newrow on to the subroutine.
I have 60 checkboxes on my spreadsheet and basically, when any of the checkboxes are clicked on, the same action should be performed.
The only way I know how to do this is if I were to write the same code 60 times... one for each checkbox_click() method.
I have a short subroutine to delete a row in a second worksheet (SUMMARY EXPENSES) if one is deleted in the main worksheet (AS CODES) as per below:
[Code] .......
In theory the row deletion should only be triggered IF dynamiccounter is smaller than staticcounter, but the fact is anything whatsoever triggers the row deletion. If I type text into a cell a row gets deleted. If I copy a cell, a row gets deleted. It works great at deleting the line, but I suspect it has nothing to do with the counters I set up and the reassigning of the counter value towards the end of the If statement.
I have a small sub routine below I would like to make a slight modification to. The routine currently references formatting relative to the Offset statement in bold below. Instead, I would like the formatting to come from a cell address listed in a cell just to the left of the cursor when the statement is encountered.

If you use the keyword "Call" to invoke a subroutine that does return something, the returned variable will be discarded.
