how I can change the color of the comment indicators in an
Excel spreadsheet so I can tell who wrote the comment. This would help me and
my secretary to be able to do our work and be able to tell who's comment it
is. We are in different lacation and can't always talk to each other on the
spur of the moment. If we can change the color of the comment indicator then
it would be simple to be able to see at a glance who's comment it is.
The comment lines in Exel VBA editor is green by default, is it possible to change the color?

I need to insert a small icon and when the mouse goes over (like it does in a form tool tip) will show the value of a cell (text value) located in another sheet in same workbook, or I was thinking inset a comment next to the icon and link the comments of the comments text to cell with the text value.

I've look the properties of this to objects and can figure it out.
I was wondering how I could change my desktop icon for one specific workbook to something other than the excel icon. I saw the below link (2nd tip) but that changes the icon for every file of a specific file type. I just want to change one specific file's icon on my desktop to something custom, like a clipart picture of my choosing. I also know that this can be done with shortcuts, but I need it to be changed on the original file. I tried using the IconChanger program, but the icon stayed with the file name so if I did a "save as" or emailed the file, it disappeared. I want it to stick with that file for good, or any file I duplicate from the original, and work on other computers as well.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have one sheet with about 100 activex controls (and another few 100 on the other sheets in the file), most combobox, but some checkbox as well. There are 30 of them lined up, one in each row. One at a time, one control will basically change to an icon only. If you select it in design mode, the name shows in the range name area of the toolbar, but when you select properties you get the properties for the sheet. Effectively I have an icon with nothing linked to it anymore.
For a while, it seemed to be somewhat random. But for the last few days, it is now cascading down. First combobox #6, then #7, etc. I'm now on #11 or so. Seems to happen when you save then reopen the file, not if you just keep working in the file without closing it.
The macros behind the boxes are still there and run once I recreate the missing box (normally with an Alt-D, and editing the properties; but I've also created from scratch from the toolbar, and used alt-C, alt-V) they work fine. I've run a compile, with no change. Any thoughts on finding the root cause? I thought it might be from blowing up a macro, but I've tried it without even editing a macro and it has the issue.
How do I use VB to change the comment box color to blue. The code i have now defualts to red.
Public preValue As Variant 'Declares a variable to be used in both macros
'This is the first line for a macro that runs when a cell is changed.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub 'Limits the change to 1 cell only
If Intersect(Target, Range("$A$1:$M$42")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Target.ClearComments 'Clears any existing comment
Target.AddComment.Text Text:="Previous Value was " & preValue & Chr(10) & "Revised " & Format( Date, "mm-dd-yyyy") & Chr(10) & "By " & Environ("UserName") 'Adds a new comment with the text. CHR(10) is a return...............
I want to apply different font colors to text written in an excel comment box using VBA code (Please check the attached screenshot) I was able to apply one colour to all by using the following code, but am not able to apply different font color to each charater/bunch of characters.
Range("B7").Comment.Shape.Select True
Range("B7").Comment.Text Text:="A" & Chr(10) & "B" & Chr(10) & "C"
With Selection.Font
.ColorIndex = 9
End With
I need to send out an order form (spreadsheet) to 100's of people that need to complete the form and email back to me as an attachment. If I was completing the order form myself I would use the "email" icon that I have pinned to my Quick Access Toolbar (QAT). However, most of the recipients don't even know the Toolbar exists.
Is there a way I can insert an icon / hyperlink in the spreadsheet that does the same thing as the QAT icon. I can insert text to say "click here to email your order" (or similar).
I need to keep it in an excel format and an icon is so much better that asking them to save to their hard-drive and attach to an email, etc.
The QAT icon is exactly what is needed but I need to provide a spreadsheet that works for folk who haven't got the icon.
I'm trying to make my Excel/VBA application look as little like Excel as I can and there's now almost no trace of Excel - so is there any way I can replace the standard Excel green "X" icon that appears on Windows Taskbar with my own?

I'm not sure if it matters but I have the worksheet protected and the cells in question are unlocked.
Below is an example of the code I'm trying to get to work.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn my Excel 2003 worksheet, I need the row color to automatically change to blue (color 5) (bgcolor = #0000FF) - when the user changes the text from VALID to INVALID in the range: B3:B65000.
For example:
Cell B5 contains the text: VALID
When the user changes the text in the field to read: INVALID - then I need the row range: A5:W5 to change to the color blue.
I would like to be able to change the color of a cell in V4:AB31 and have the formula in AM10:AM13 automatically calculate the new result. As it is now the user has to press Ctrl ALT f9 for the formula to recalculate.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have two columns. The first one (A) contains cells that have different Fill colors. The second column (B) contains text adjacent to the colored cells. I am trying to change the color of the text in the second column (B) to the corresponding color in the adjacent cell in the first column (A). I don't think conditional formating works well in this situation. I believe the solution would be some sort of macro.

It seems that you can change position when you editing comment and its remembered, but when its showing its alway's on default position.
Is there way to change position of displayed (when you mouse over cell and coment pops up) comment position?
I have font color white in blank cells in column E and I (from row 5 to row 245) so the visitors will not see the text. If any of these cells become yellow (color code is 6), the font color will become black so visitors can see the text alot far better than white. I've tried this code myself after this post but nothing happen
