Can A Macro Take Focus Away From A Cell And Not Plae It On Another Cell

Dec 8, 2009

I use this code to copy the contents of a cell to the clipboard - thanks to the fine people who answer m stupid questions on Mr. Excel.

Sub Button36_Click()
Cells(2, 4).copy
End Sub

This works fine but leaves the cell highlighted with the blinking border. This will confuse the people who use my file. Is there a line of code I can add to this little macro that'll keep the cell from being highlighted?

Set Focus To A Particular Cell

Jan 6, 2004

I am writing some VBA, and this is what is going on:

I display a form which asks the user to insert the desired number of invoices. After inserting the number, I would like a the cursor to appear in a textbox labeled "Invoice Date" (ref A28). Additionally, I would like the user to only have to key in the day and month. Therefore, I would like to have the cell be defaulted to / /2004.

Run Macro On Double Cell Click If Cell Part Of Named Range

Feb 6, 2008

I have a sheet where i have many differently named areas (like state1_1 and state1_2) When I doubleclick on a cell then a macro should run with following criteria: 1) Macro will run if the doubleclicked cell is part of any range in the list. Here I mean that names of ranges which belong to that list start with word state (like state1_1 and state1_2). No other ranges should not be in that list. If the cell is not in the range that is part of the list, then nothing should happen.

Macro That Will Highlight Cell And Four Rows To Right Based On Text In Cell

Aug 6, 2014

I have a spreadsheet where if Cell A2 says "Deposit", Rows A2-E2 would be formatted with a Blue background.

I've tried conditional formatting, but I can't built it into a Macro (I can't make it run), and it only highlights the cell that has that value. I also tried having the spreadsheet filter down to only the values I want highlighted, then highlighting all cells and un-filtering the column- this didn't work either.

It would basically say :

If (any cell in Row A) has text = "Deposit" (it needs to be exact, it can't be "containing"), set cell with the word "Deposit" and 4 cells to the right as Blue (I'm not picky about the color).

Macro: Changing Cell Color Based On Date In Cell

Jan 12, 2009

I did a search on this site and found some code I was looking for (see link:

http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...e-in-cell.html - Leith Ross's response code).

The code works perfectly, however, if I save the workbook with a different spreadsheet on top than the spreadsheet referred to in this code, I get an error message: Method 'Range' of object '_Worksheet' failed.

I should state that I did change "Private Sub Workbook_Open()" to "Private Sub Auto_Open()".

I assume I need to modify the code but am unsure as to how.

Macro To Pull Same Cell Range Cell From Many Closed Books

Feb 26, 2009

I have many workbooks which all have a summary sheet called summary, and which are all kept in the same folder (although this folder name/filepath may change from year to year).

I want to be able to set up the column headings and then copy the same set of summary information from each book so that it can then be used for analysis. The cells to be copies derive their value from formulae, it is the value that needs to be copied.

I attach a workbook with the format needed and the source cells. The source sheet will be password protected.

I know this is a question that has been raised before and I have searched the forum but not come across a question that is close enough to work from - my VB skills are appalling.

Macro To Insert Date In Cell When Text Is Inserted In Another Cell

Feb 20, 2008

I'm trying to write a macro similar to the one found here: here:http://www.techonthenet.com/excel/macros/checkbox.php.

Rather then use a textbox, I would like the cell to display the date when text is inserted in the cell to the left.

ie. I insert text (the letter 'a') in cell E11, and the date appears in cell F11.

I would also like the macro to do this for a range of cells ie. for E11 to F21, then from G11 to H21, then from I11 to J21, all the way to column IV.

Macro To Copy Row And Change Value Of Cell Based On Cell Value?

Oct 7, 2011

Basically, I need to reformat a set of data (see before and after). A specific column should only contain 1 value, if there is more than 1 value it will be separated by a comma. If this column contains more than 1 set of data then I would need to insert a row and duplicate the information based on how many different sets there are. All the copied data should remain the same with the exception of the "Key" column, it should only have 1 value and each copied row should contain the corresponding value in the key field.

BTW - it could be on the same sheet or a different worksheet (doesn't matter)

BEFORE
Name Number KEY Date
Name1 1 a,b,c 12/1/2011
Name2 2 x 12/1/2011
Name 3 5 one,three 12/1/2011

AFTER
Name Number KEY Date
Name1 1 a 12/1/2011
Name1 1 b 12/1/2011
Name1 1 c 12/1/2011
Name2 2 x 12/1/2011
Name 3 5 one 12/1/2011
Name 3 5 three 12/1/2011

Macro To Find Value In Cell And Copy / Paste To Other Cell

Dec 11, 2013

I have the following code, so far:

Code:

Sub CopyPasteValue()
Dim ARow
Dim AColumn
Dim BRow
Dim BColumn
Dim Value
AColumn = 1

[Code]....

What I want it to do is to start in cell B1 and look down until it finds a non-blank cell; copy the contents of that cell. I then need it to go to the same row Col A and go down from until it finds the first non-blank cell then paste into the corresponding cell in Col B. It should continue this way through the rest of the worksheet. There is no set pattern to say to go down 5 rows or such. Also the number of pastes in each step is variable from 1 to ??

In my worksheet, the first non-blank cell in Col B is cell B3 and the first non-blank cell in Col A is A7. The paste should occur in cells B7:B10 because the next non-blank cell in Col A is A11.
