Cell Text Prints, But Isn't Seen On Screen
May 2, 2007
For example, a cell on the screen is blank. When the page is printed, the "blank cell" has printed text.
I checked "format cells" and it shows word wrap, merge cells, and left to right.
I was told to "un-merge" the cells. I did that and I still have the problem.
The color on all the cells is OK at a blue shade. When I look at print preview the cells are blank, but when the sheet is printed, the text shows.
Also, it looks like there are 2-3 cells inside the main cell.
I hope I have explained this properly, it is not easy to use the correct language to describe since I am not very good at using Excel.

I am trying to write a macro which does a screen print of a couple of sheets in a spreadsheet. I created the macro using the recorder function and then trimmed it down a bit. However, when I run the macro it pops up with the box asking for a file location, and this is not something that the recoder function seems to write into the macro. I am not sure how to have the macro autofil the file location for the screen print. Is there anyone out there who can give me a hand with this? Thanks. The code for the macro is below...
Sub ScreenPrint()
Sheets( Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3")).Select
Application.ActivePrinter = "Microsoft Office Document Image Writer on Ne00:"
Selection.PrintOut Copies:=1, ActivePrinter:= _
"Microsoft Office Document Image Writer on Ne00:", Collate:=True
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
End Sub

I am trying to do is to make it so that users can enter data into my form (I have managed to create the form and am working on trying to figure out how to get the info entered into the form to appear in my worksheet) and then the data will cause the information to, basically, compile sentences that I want to appear in one of three cells at the bottom of the worksheet.
Essentially, at this point in time, the end goal is to make 3 cells that contain text. Eventually, this text will be indexed elsewhere, but that is for the next person to deal with. I am creating a prototype that I want to present as a process improvement.
So, when the user selects 3 in cell D7 I want the text "Customer purchased 3 Widgets at $20 each." to print in cell 82B.
I also want the user to be able to copy and paste some customer records from another program directly into a cell in the form that will just print (unchanged) into one of these boxes, too.
Lastly, I want the user to be able to select checkboxes that will, when selected, print a comment that will print in two of these boxes. For example, if the user selects yes for cell D26 then I want the text "Customer not eligible for free shipping" to appear in both cells C82 and D82.

The code bellow allows for me have the current sheet saved "printed" to a pdf file with name taken from a cell value.
After that it also prints 3 hard copies with a cell value being changed for each print.
Can I have this but on the pdf code so that the 3 pages are also saved "printed" to pdf?
Code:
'Selects doPDF to genarate PDF file of invoice and names it accordingly to cell L17 which is the invoice number. Application.ActivePrinter = "doPDF v7 on DOP7:"
ActiveSheet.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:= _
"E:LusaGenerated InvoicesINV" & Range("L17").Text & ".pdf", _
Quality:=xlQualityStandard, IncludeDocProperties:=False, IgnorePrintAreas _
:=False, OpenAfterPublish:=False
[Code] .......

how to create a loop that grabs the ( t'th ) cell and prints into columns on the spreadsheet adjacently that cell and the ones before it (total = t) and repeats it consecutively until there are no more cells to transcribe into columns. For example - I have n=100 cells in a column that need to be placed into n-t columns (where t = 5 for example).
See image below for clarification, code to follow:
As you can see I need it to fill out in the yellow highlighted cells the rest of that pattern. Right now it only does it for one column, but every time I try to get it to do the rest of the columns, it prints the same first column over and over again (I'm having some severe mental block with implementing the correct loop code).
For clarification also, the user selects the t'th cell and it prints that cell and the previous (3 in this case)... and then it shifts down one cell and prints those 4 cells into the next column - which is what I want it to do.
Sub populate_range()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim rowoffset As Integer
Dim offsetnumber As Integer
rowoffset = Range("F2")
offsetnumber = Range("F2")
Range("d5:iv5").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.ClearContents
Sheet1.Select
Range("b4").Select
ActiveCell.Offset([offsetnumber], 0).Select
Range(ActiveCell, ActiveCell.Offset(-([offsetnumber] - 1), 0)).Select
Selection.Copy............................

I have copied a webpage into excel It contains URL javascript link.
a) I wonder if I can copy this link out without keystroking each row.
b) When I point at the link, a few numbers come out. I want to extract these number out.
I am thinking of creating a macro so that it can be performed automatically because I have more than 300 rows.

I work in a hospital laboratory and we are performing an antibiotic study. I have a work book consisting of 2 sheets
1 sheet is a list 7 antibiotics in a column for a1 to a8
2 sheet is a blank results sheet
What I want to do is print out the blank result sheet once for every antibiotic on sheet 1 with the name of the antibiotic in sheet 2 pos "a,1"
I have copied the blank 7 times and linked to the antibiotic list but this seems very untidy.
Is there a way to print out 7 identical sheet2's differing only by reference to sheet 1 a1 to a8.

When printing an Excel workbook/Worksheet that has been emailed via Lotus notes 7.02 the print job is all blank pages - PrintPreview is normal and correct - Page Breaks are set correctly - The correct number of pages are printed but, ALL Pages are blank. The printer is an HP 6310 All-in-One connected locally via USB. If Printed to Adobe, ALL pages are correct and can be printed on the HP 6310. If another printer is selected (ie: Any Network Printer) the results are the same. This occurrs only on certain spreadsheats received from only a few users.

Using Excel 2003 I have had this problem ocassionally, and I can't figure out what causes it or how to fix it. In a workbook of several excel worksheets I will ask to print a mulitple page worksheet and only 2/3 of every page prints. This also happens if I print to an Adobe acrobat file, and typically happens when I am printing to pdf files. The selection is correct; there are no page breaks . . . it is just some sort of glitch. The only way I get rid of it is to close down and reboot .

I have written quite and extensive macro that takes data from many Excel files and creates a summary of them. The problem is that there needs to be no hidden columns in the master files or the summary prints misinformation. I am looking for a way to keep people from hiding any columns (and rows if possible) unless they have a password. The problem is that many people have to get into the masters to update data, so I can't just put a password on the files and be done with it.

I'm looking to create a macro which displays a user entry box where the user can input a starting number and then input an ending number. The macro will then cycle through that range inputting each value into a specific cell and perform a print function. It will continue doing this until the last number in the range.
E.g.
Min. Number inputted = 1
Max. Number inputted = 80
Macro will not cycle through that range:
Input 1 into Sheet1 Range A1
Print Page
Input 2 into Sheet1 Range A1
Print Page
.....Continue doing this until it reaches 80

Here's the details:
Same file shared by many users in the office. File is maybe 2200 rows long and 20 columns wide. Last column is a text field where users can explain variances. Cells in the last column are wrapped and the rows auto-fit on the height. Zoom is set at 100%.
One person opens the file and it looks fine on the screen. Print preview also looks fine. File prints out perfectly.
Another user opens the file and it looks fine on the screen. BUT, print preview shows that the bottom line or lines of text is cut off. File prints exactly like the preview showed with clipped text.
Both users can point the file to the same printer, but that doesn't seem to change anything. Still prints with text clipped for one person and perfectly for another...

I have an image overlapping a range of cells. I want this code to scan the pixel at the center of the cell, find out what color it is, and set the entire cell to that color, for each cell. Unfortunately with the GetPixel function I have to specify the x and y coordinates in terms of pixels from the top left corner of my monitor. The "CurrentCell.left & CurrentCell.top" method is not giving me the right location (Should start at cell AA1). If you would like, open up the file, go to sheet 2, insert an image, and click "Generate Field from Image". I set the cursor to follow the current position so you can see that it is selecting pixels from the corner of my monitor rather than cell AA1. Is there a way I can calculate the screen position of the top left of cell AA1?

All sheets are basically the same except some minor values, names and addresses. There is one page per sheet and all pages are in portrait format. The print preview shows all the pages in order but when I print it, it makes multiple print jobs of 1 to 2 pages each and prints them all out of order. I don't know why it is splitting up the workbook or why it changes the order. I print and reorder these weekly, which is a major pain. It comes out in the same order each time but it is the wrong order.

Trying to create a button that, once clicked performs the following task:
Checks whether the text in a cell in the column X2:X40 matches the text in a cell in the Range A2:U14.
If it does, the formatting of the cell in X2:X40 (eg background) must change to match that of the corresponding cell in A2:U14.
Only 1 cell in the range will match 1 cell in the column
For example:
Before click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a clear background
During click:
matches these cells
changes X4 so that it also has a yellow background
After click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a yellow background

I have 2 tabs in a 2013 workbook. Inventory Receipts and lookups. One of the Data verification lookups I have is a drop down list in each cell in Column B (eg: Cat, Dog, Mouse) In the lookups tab I have another cell range containing the sounds (eg: Meow, Bark, Squeak).
What I am trying to acheive is, if B2 contains Cat, then return Meow in B3, if B2 contains Dog then return bark in b3 and if B2 contains Mouse return squeak in B3. Ideally I would like the formula to return the text from my lookup sheet (eg: 'Lookups'!C2,'Lookups'!C3,'Lookups'!C4). So depending on which option they choose from my animal drop down list .. the correct noise would automatically fill in.

I have four cells that contain text. All have connected check boxes with TRUE FALSE.
I need to be able to select anyone one of these cells with a check box, and have it's text appear in one separate cell eg: A1.
I have no issue connecting check boxes etc. I have no issue reproducing the text from any of these cells into multiple cells with a check box. But they have to be selectable and reproducing in one cell only (eg"A1").

As per title, I am trying to compare a column of text cells which contain "Yes" or are empty and a columns of numbers. If they are "Yes" and "1" on the same row, I want to output an "OK" message. Excel seems happy with the following code but it does not work and returns an empty cell if the two conditions are true.

I have a list of text quotes in column A. I then have column B which will have a Y entered if the quote is used in a presentation. I currently have around 100 quotes.
On a separate sheet, I want to be able to effectively say in one cell - If column B has text in it, copy the quote from column A. But the difficult part is how do I make this happen so that I can have multiple quotes being pulled into one cell?

I'm trying to get something like - If a cell contains certain text AND certain text then display set text OR If a cell contain certain text AND certain text then display set text.
For example:
Vauxhall Corsa 1.5Litre Petrol = vauxhall corsa petrol
Vauxhall Corsa 1.5Litre Deisel = vauxhall corsa Deisel
Vauxhall Nova 1 litre Petrol = vauxhall nova petrol
So it the formula is effectively searching for the car type and the fuel type and then returning the relevant set text. So far I'ver only been able to find IF functions criteria to identify one feature of the text.
I'm thinking it's got to be variation on =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("Vauxhall Corsa",A1)),"Vauxhall Corsa Petrol") but there should be something else in there like =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("Vauxhall Corsa"&"Petrol",A1)),"Vauxhall Corsa Petrol")
I know this is wrong but just trying illustrate my thinking. I need it to pick up vauxhall corsa AND petrol. I understand that I would have to stick a lot of IF functions together in a string, but that is fine as long as I can ask it to pick certain text AND certain text within a cell.
