I am creating a workbook and need the user to stay on a single page of the workbook until certain circumstances have been met, specifically, a macro has been activated, thus confirming that certain data is now in place. Is there a code of function that I can introduce into the workbook so that clicking on the other tabs of the other sheets will not allow the user to leave the page they are on until that circumstance is met?
View 9 RepliesI have a summary page that includes the titles for each tab within the excel 2003 workbook. I want to use the names of the tabs in the summary page and create it into a formula to lookup fixed cells within the various tabs. Sorry for not uploading an excel doc but I was at work earlier and the thread did not load for some reason, so I am reposting it.

At the moment my table of contents is including the cover sheet and table of contents.
I am interested in printing an entire workbook in one shot with multiple tabs, where each tab is one page. I would like to print the tabs such that the first tab has the number '1' in the footer, the second tab has '2' etc. And I don't want to go into each tab and type the number in the footer.
Does anyone know how to easily make this happen?
I have a spreadsheet with many tabs in it (over 100 I believe) and I just want a macro that will adjust the page breaks so it will print one page per tab. Somewhere along the way, the page breaks have auto-adjusted themselves to print 4 or more pages on one tab. I do not want that.
In trying to figure this out on my own, I recorded a macro on one of the tabs and it returned the following
Sub Macro1()
ActiveWindow.View = xlPageBreakPreview
ActiveSheet.VPageBreaks(1).DragOff Direction:=xlToRight, RegionIndex:=1
ActiveWindow.View = xlNormalView
End Sub
How can I add to or adjust this to make it adjust the pagebreaks in all available tabs?
When I view a sheet under Page Break Preview, it shows the Page numbers in the centre of the Page. While I am aware that it would not print the page number I was wondering if there is an option to remove/hide the page numbers.

I have been trying to get Excel (2007) to change the colour of tabs to match other tabs in the workbook
Using this code I get the colour code of the current tab
Code:
x = ActiveSheet.Tab.ColorIndex
But when I use this value in a procedure like this:
Code:
ActiveSheet.Tab.ColorIndex = x
The tab is a different colour!

Also, can I have one of the buttons on this message box turn on macros?
I have this code that I've sourced from the internet, i have used to disable red "X" on the top right,
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = Not bClose
If Cancel = True Then MsgBox "Please Save your data and select File - Close from the main menu"
End Sub
but when I select File and then close .... it runs the same macro? eh? i want x's disabled not the file close ....
I have a worksheet that all of the icons that start a macro disappeared. The workbook will not let me insert a pic, or clipart. Nothing is locked.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have noticed that the submenus for the following main menu items are disabled
Edit Insert Format Data
The submenus for the other main menu items are fine.
I have not run any macros that alter the menus.
I have tried Tools>Customise Reset Menu and Toolbar usage. I then exit the Excel session, but the problem still remains,
The boolean Cancel suddenly stopped working for me in all workbook and worksheet events. Consider a simple example:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeRightClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = True
End Sub
does not cancel right click, like it has before. Same with BeforeDoubleClick. I can only assume it is some kind of a setting or similar, as there is absolutely no change in the code.
I have a worksheet with several option buttons and until yesterday, I had no problem selecting them. But today, every time, I select a radio button, an error shows up stating "Cannot run Macro "Option Button_click. Macro is not available in this workbook or is disabled". When the user selects a radio button, text appears in Col B depending on what button was selected (using VLOOKUP). That stuff is still working fine. It's just as soon as I click a radio button, the error shows up.
Based on the radio button selected, user can add in information to the columns adjacent to it, and then click a button to store that information in some rows below. The code for that button is stored in the sheet module. I have tried enabling macros and disabling macros and no change has appeared. What I have noticed though is that yesterday, when i opened the workbook, a yellow bar appeared asking if I wanted to "Enable Content". Today, that bar didn't appear.
I was playing around with Macros on an excel file. I created a few and ran them. In the end, I didn't like the way they ran, so I deleted them all. However since I ran them in the excel file, every time I open the file it gives me a warning saying
"Macros have been disabled."
Is there any way to remove the possible Macros ties/links from my file? I know I can disable the warning, but if I just want to remove the Macros ties to my file.
I'm using excel 2003 and received a file that has the properties (file/Properties) menu option grayed out. I need to access the properties menu to identify file information.

Option Explicit forces explicit declaration of all variables in the code. That is why i had to declare ws as worksheet using the Dim statement before using it in the code. It is recommended to have it - however for this code it wouldn't have mattered.
I'm not sure I exactly follow what you imply here. But yes, you can hide all the sheets at first and then "unhide" at the start of the macro. Let's say you have a "Start" sheet.. then:
[Code] .....
The workbook is used by other people too. I cannot just tell them to hide the sheets, it defeats the purpose. What I want is, when macro is disabled, they will only see the START sheet, otherwise, all sheets will be visible. To add to this, a new sheet is added everyday. Sheets name are calendar dates in mmdd format
I was wondering if it is possible to prevent a macro from running depending on what value is in a specified cell.
I have a huge excel sheet and a commandbutton that runs a bunch of macros in order to generate a report.
I want to force the user to select a specific project before all the macros are run. Just making the report for a specific project only takes a few seconds but if no project is selected then it runs throught the whole database and it takes forever.
I have set up a cell that changes value depending on wether a project is selected or not. I have placed the cell in the -ForMacros- sheet. Now is it possible to write some code into the commandbutton that halts the report generation + displays a warning box telling the user to select a project first?
What values used to determine wether the macro runs or not doesnt matter to me. Whatever is easier for you
I have attached a sample workbook for you to work on.
when i put a file across a network, it should be shared among all the users, but it appears as read only file and the option of track changes in the tools function is disabled. However, when i open an excel file in a stand alone pc, and use the track changes option, i get the file as (shared) as the header. what is the significane or meaning of this word "shared" in a stand alone pc?

I have a protected worksheet which enables only certain sections to be edited, data inputs etc. I also have a set of rows grouped which need to be activated depending on data type for particular projects to be captured. Problem is, when the sheet is protected, when users click on the + and - buttons to either ungroup and group the rows depending on type of project, this feature is disabled.
I get a popup alert that tells me "You cannot use this command on a protected worksheet. To use this command you must first unprotect the sheet ....". Problem is I don't want all users to have access as giving them the password defeats my purpose of protecting the sheet.
See the attached file, row 23.
I have a file that contains Macros that I want to share with others. The only problem I have is that users have the right to enable or disable macros. If they disable the macro - some of the security functions could be lost.

I have a workbook in Excel2010 with 2 sheets. I have put in a conditional formatting in 27177 cells. After a lot of waiting it finally worked out and the cells that should turn RED, do show correctly. The strange thing is that my "filter by color" stays disabled. This applies both to the columns I've applied the conditional formatting to, as well as any other column that has a colored cell.
The second sheet in the file also have colored cells and there the option works perfectly fine. So it seems to have something to do with the particular sheet.
why the function got disables in the particular worksheet.
I do have a VBA that runs in the report. For whatever reason this stops excel back button (or CRTL Z) from working. What would i need to change in order for back button to work?
