Change Cell's Value With "selection Change"
Nov 28, 2009
How can I get a cell to show one value when it is selected and return to it's original value when it's no longer the active cell. The cell has a number in it, when it's selected, I use the "selectionChange" event to replace the active cell's value with a number on sheet 2. (The original value is copied to a new location before it is replaced). When the cell is no longer the active cell, I want the original value to be pasted back into the cell. How can I do that? This is what I have so far:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
x = ActiveCell.Row
y = ActiveCell.Column
ActiveCell = Sheets("Sheet").Cells(x,y).offset(20,3)
End Sub

Attached is book in which, when a choice is selected from Drop Down list in ColumnF the macro has to do the need.
When the macro was written it was working well. But when I tried to change it as a Worksheet_SelectionChange event nothing is happenning even though a choice is selected from drop down list.

I just loaded 2007, and among the things driving me nuts is I can't figure out how to change the color of highlighted cells that I have selected. The default color is so close to the normal background color(White) that it is difficult for me to distinguish between selected cells and unselected cells.
I've tried the built in help but couldn't seem to search for the right phrase to bring up a relevant answer. I've had the same problem when trying google and Microsoft's office 2007 help site. I also searched the forum before posting and came up blank.

I have a dynamic drop down list using OFFSET and want to change a selection of cell colors based on the drop down selection. My drop down list is located in cell G4 and the cells I want to change are
=$C$9,$C$10,$C$11,$B$11,$B$12,$C$12,$B$13,$C$13,$C$14,$C$15,$H$15,$H$14,$H$13.
These are random cells. There is no value in the cells, I just want to change the color from green to gray.

I know of
Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
but I would like to expand this idea to detect any change in cell selection across all open workbooks.

I've set up code where when a cell within a specified range of cells is selected, a macro will run. This works all well and good except for when a whole row, column or range containing the defined cells is selected, there is a run time error. There is no situation where I want multiple cells selected to run the macro, so I only want to run the macro when only a single cell within that range is selected.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("GoToRange")) Is Nothing Then
Application.Run "'Macro Test Current MY PFEP Metrics.xls'!PFEP_Filter"
End If
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("GoToRange2")) Is Nothing Then
Application.Run "'Macro Test Current MY PFEP Metrics.xls'!PFEP_Filter"
End If
End Sub
The ranges defined are non-contigious ranges.

I have two worksheets...
Sheet 1
A1: description
A2: Target Iteration
A3: Concat A1, A2.
Sheet 2.
A1: Drop down datavalidation list selected from A3, sheet 1.
On sheet 2, a user can select from the list. If a user changes the value in A2, sheet 1, I want the value that is associated and already selected in A1, sheet 2 to automatically update. There is a 1 to many relationship with the concat and the drop down. In that, sheet 2 can have multiple rows with the same value from sheet 1 A3. Is there a way when A3 sheet 1 changes, to search in A:A in sheet two and update the values for those records that match the original value in A3, sheet 1?

I'm using the following code in a worksheet:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
col = ActiveCell.Column
Range("output") = ActiveCell.Offset(0, -(col - 4)).Value
End Sub
In case it's not obvious, the macro places the value in the active row and 4th column of the worksheet into the range "output".
The problem is, the worksheet is large and somewhat slow to recalculate. This macro forces a recalc on any selection change, but i only need it to run when the row selection changes, not the column.
I'm sure there's a straightforward way to reprogram this.

i have some existing code which is trigerred when anything is input into column c. The code then adds various information in another three columns. One of which pastes a vlookup formulae, and i would like this forumlae pasted into the column c cell which i initialy edited, in order to remove the requirement for one additional column.
The existing code i have is:
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
Dim MyText As String
MyText = Environ("username")
If Target.Cells.Column = 3 Then
With Target
If .Value "" Then
.Offset(0, 2).Formula = "=VLOOKUP(D:D,'P:TAOffshoreTAOffshoreTreasuryRecsGeneralCommit ID''s for control Sheet - Do not move or delete[commit ids - DO NOT DELETE OR MOVE.xls]Sheet1'!$A$1:$B$65536,2,0)"
[code].....
I have tried changing the offset to (0,0) or changing the offset to 'target = ', which does add in the vlookup but then the macro debugs at the 'If .Value "" Then' code?

My user wants to change it so that, when the word "Triang" is selected from a dropdown box on each line the formatting goes back to none......or ClearFormats.
Can this be done with a Worksheet_selectionChange or similar.
I can't even get my head around this at the moment.
What the user is saying is, if the Formats haven't been cleared on certain lines, the user of the sheet hasn't addressed the needs for that particular line.
For r = lrow To 15 Step -1
If Range("M" & r).Value "" = True Then
Range("N" & r).Value = "Triang"
Range("N" & r).Interior.Color = vbRed
Range("V" & r).Value = "Triang"
Range("V" & r).Interior.Color = vbRed
End If
Next r

I'm trying to write some code where if the user hits the Enter key on a particular cell an input box pops up. At the moment I've got some code that activates the input box whenever the user selects or scrolls over the cell. The problem is that the cell is a protected cell (as it has a formula in it) so double-clicking isn't an option.....

The following macro will put a checkmark in the range of A2:B100. I would like to use the current macro along with two or more other Worksheet_SelectionChange. One of the SelectionChange to put "Williamson" in the range of L2:L100 and another SelectionChange to put "Michaelson" in the range of M2:M100? Is it possible to use more than one Worksheet_SelectionChange

I am having some difficulty working out how to activate the SelectionChange command if the user changes a cell in a particular column. Based on the fact that the column number may change the constant in this column will be that on row 7 the name will be "Fund Size".
Therefore my question is how do I get VBA to run my code if a user changes a cell in the "Fund Size" column...and underneath the "Fund Size" header (i.e. row 8 or greater).

How do I change the selection of a range with a variable, and not a hardcoded number in XL2003? I have to update a set of spreadsheets every month, and it's a hassle to have to constantly open my pivot table worksheet, copy, open the summary worksheet, paste ... etc. etc. etc. The code below is my attempt at creating a ComboBox with "January, February, March, etc." and every time I select a particular month it will automatically copy data from my pivot table worksheet into my new summary worksheet in the correct column. The range of data from my pivot table worksheet will never change, so I have no problem hardcoding that in, but based on which month is selected will alter which column the data goes in in the new worksheet.
I want to be able to write code for one month (say January) and then when I want to use a different month (say February) I can just change the column number and call up the originial January code.
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
Dim ColNum ' This is the variable I want to change based on which month is called
If ComboBox1.Value = "January" Then
ColNum = 1 ' Column number for Column A- Where my January column is
Elseif ComboBox1.Value = "February" Then
ColNum = 2 ' Column number for Column B- Where my February column is
' etc. etc. for each month
End If
Call January
End Sub
Private Sub January()
' Just a quick msgbox to make sure the previous macro is calling this one
MsgBox "Is this macro running?", vbQuestion + vbYesNo, "Check"...........................

I'm trying to come up with some code that will allow a user to mouse click a cell to cut it, then mouse click another cell to paste it, then it toggles back to mouse click a cell to cut it. It would be a 2 step process for the user - select cut then select paste.

How do I change the color of a row, based on the users selection from a drop down box in that row? I have four driving types in my drop down , Towing - Town Driving - All highway - Mixed. I would like each driving type, if selected, to change the color of the entire Row of Data to a different color. I have been able to use conditional formating to change the drop down cell itself, but that is it.

I have attached a work book.
At the moment when you click the macro botton on the sheets a calender shows and you can select the inspection done tab, this gives you a list to select witch then updates the selected task in the sheet.
How can i get this to allow single or multiple sections so that if more than one task is completed on the same date they could be updated all at once.

My screen flickers when I use the following code.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.EnableEvents = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Dim WTH As Long
If Target.Row = 19 Then
WTH = 1
End If
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
If I comment out the code, my screen doesn't flicker.
In the "Tmp = 1" line I was using the special cells method to color constants red (without selecting anything). When I use that code instead of the "Tmp=1" line, it takes about a second to change cells, and I see the "4 Processors Calculating Message" in Excel when the code fires--even if it's not in row 19.

I have an excel sheet where I can enter a text into A4, when this is valid a checkbox1 will appear if there is no value then the checkbox is invisible.
I have used a macro 'worksheet selection change' to do this but unfortunately I can only use this once in a sheet. I need to do this for upto 10 checkboxs that corrospond sequentially with text starting at A4 for checkbox1, A5 for checkbox2 etc....
The routine I have used for one check box is below. Can this be changed for multiple checkboxes?
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Range("A4") = isblank Then
CheckBox1.Visible = False
Else
CheckBox1.Visible = True

I am using Excel 2007, and I have a macro (that is working) that I would like to run whenever there has been a new selection in a dropdown list on my worksheet. I have done this many times before in other workbooks, and I have always used:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
End Sub
To my knowledge this should trigger the macro when the dropdown selection changes. However, this time it is not working. The macro runs fine manually, but it does not run when the dropdown selection changes.

I have created a named range that includes raw data layed out in 4 columns (Finish Name, Fill Color, Pattern, Font Color). On a separate sheet, when one of the finish names is selected in a particular cell, I want the cells fill, pattern, and font color to change according to the raw data. Below is the vba code I am trying to get to work. However, it is not working. It does not break, but does not achieve the desired result. It looks like the variables are getting set correctly, but still not changing the cell when they are referenced. I am only testing it on the first finish color, as seen in the code. All of the rest are static values for the cell, but I want the values to be dynamic.
Sub SetFinishSeparatorColor()
ActiveCell = frmFinishSeparator.cboFinish.Value
Set rngTarget = ActiveCell
With Sheets("Pick List Do Not Tamper").Range("Finish_Cell_Color")
lngFinishCellColor = . Find(What:=rngTarget, After:=.Cells(1, 1), _
LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False).Offset(0, 1)..............
