I would like to create a macro that looks at a specifc cell with a formula that compares the values of two other cells on the spreadsheet. If the variance is more that $10, I would like a popup window to come up telling the user that they are not in balance. I would like this to happen when they attempt to save the file.
I have a table array which shows me that amount of each I have in each spot. What I need is a warning to auto popup when it reaches a certain number. I need this for many different cells. So if cell m20 changes from 3 to 2 it should popup and say only two xx are available and keep going down from there.
Just want to know if is possible control a popoup window through a VBScript Macro in excel? I don't know if I could click a button from a PopUp when it appears? I mean I cant go forward because a popup message appears and I dont know how take the control of it.
I mean how can the parent window take the control of the child window (popup window)
I am struggling with work-schedule worksheet and I want to do this:
In my attached sample worksheet are cells coresponding to a day of the month (monday to sunday, and so on...), and cell for job positions. Each day I must assign 5 employees to a different job position (job positions are on drop down lists).
When I select first job (on specific day), I want a pop-up window where would show what job I have allready selected and what job hasn't been selected so far.
How can I do that, is It possible in VBA coding, maybe with Listbox or CheckedListbox.
I am very new to programming in excel, so bear with me. I need to have a window that pops up when you load excel. I need it to say something like
If A2 > A1, then the popup should say "value exceeded in row 1" If B2 > B1, then the popup should say "value exceeded in row 2"
If both of the statements above are true, then I would like both of the errors to be in the same window/popup, instead of two seperate ones. I hope thats clear.
when opening Excel, a popup window appears with a question. you can then enter a value to answer the question in the popup window. then you can press enter, another window will popup with another question etc. the values you've entered will be inserted to the excel body appropriately. for example,
popup window with question: "What is your name?" your answer "John Doe" popup window with question: "What is DOB?" your answer "1/1/2009"
the two values will be inserted as below: this is John Doe. My DOB is 1/1/2009.
The code snippet below is to import a sheet into my main template. Right now, the code looks for the file in the same directory as the template, if the file is not there, a message box pops up advising the user when OK is pressed (see red lines), the workbook closes. However, in order to make my program more user friendly, I would like to add some more functionality to the code, so I would like to have a windows file browser window pop up where the user can browse for the file and select it in whatever directory it is.
Can this window be created in VBA?
Sub ImportFile()
Dim sourceFile As String Dim firstDestFile As String
sourceFile = "Client Data Dashboard Template.xlsm"
How to use an Excel worksheet I have, so I decided to make a button with a macro, which when clicked a kind of message box pops up and you can read the tutorial. When you are done you just press ok and the pop up window closes.
I know about vba I just have to use msgbox, keep on adding lines with the text and that's it! But after many attempts I found out that it ain't that easy.
[Code] ......
So I made something like this:
[Code] ....
but at a point I got this error: "Too many lines continuations".
I wanna make something that looks a bit like this: p69pxC8.jpg
But way simpler, with my text, a scroll bar to roll up and down to read and an ok button at the end. I don't need special text with hyperlinks or anything at all, plain text does the job.
It just now crossed my mind, would it be viable to also add a "Print" button next to the "Ok" button in the pop up windows with the tutorial, so when the "Print" button is clicked, the tutorial is printed?
I have a lot of links on my excel page, links going to videos. Everytime I click the link, I have this message :
"there might be viruses... are you sure you want to open this file?"
I know there must be a way to take this message off : I worked with it for months, and then it suddenly disappeared. But now that I formatted, it's back again
I have an excel sheet there i am maintaining the details of our sales invoices. Invoice no is in the column D . My concern is while entering a new number in the column D, excel should look at the entire column and give an error message if the no is already exixting in the column.
I have a range of cells and I would like a warning message to pop up if a value over 0.1 is entered. I'm sure it is pretty easy to do, just can't find any info on here and I'm not great with Excel.
I have this problem: I have a workbook with a formula liniking to another workbook. When I open the workbook, I click on "update links" and then I get this warning message:
"The workbook contains one or more (than one) links that cannot be updated. * To modify the origin of links, or to look up to update the values again, choose Modify links * To open the workbook as it is currently , choose To Continue"
I cannot understand where is the problem, the link is updated, state of link is "ok", I even can open the origin from Modifiy menu --> link --> open origin
Everytime I open the excel file I am working on I get a message saying that the file contains macros.
I have deleted all the macros I could find under "Tools" and "Macros" but I still get Module1.sortie, sortie and sortie listed. I can delete Module1.sortie but for the other two, sortie and sortie, I only have the "cancel" and "create" options.
We are using Excel 2007. The person I'm trying to help has a column with dollar figures format as Number with the obvious two decimal places. If we go to Home>Find&Select>Find and type in the value EXACTLY as it appears with Look in: changed to Values, it finds all instances of the value just fine.
Now, if I flip over to the Replace tab because she wants this specific dollar figure replaced with another specific dollar figure, my only option under Look in: is Formulas, so trying to perform the replace gets me a warning message that "Microsoft Office Excel cannot find a match".
I am writing a roster spreadsheet and it has cells with drop down lists using validation lists to fill in the start and finish times, as we run a nearly 24 hour business it is possible to accidently start someone at 2.00am and finish them at 10.00pm. In the cell which calculates the time rostered I want it to display a messagebox if the hours exceed 10 hours or go into negative.
I need to "wife proof" this sheet as this stuffs up the total calculated hours and total costs.
Would I do this through validation on the cell with the formula calculating the times orr though a macro on the sheet module?
I have a macro here that turns exported text into delimited text, but it keeps prompting the user "Do you want to replace the cells"...can I somehow automatically bypass this prompt and always say yes?
When I use list validation with name (Data validation List. Inseret name difine) and then trying to write manualy a differnt value (not from the relevant list) I am not being warned like I get when I choose a list . And then even when I have a list or a Name If I copy a diffrent value I am not being warned.
I'd like to have a warning message pop up if the value of column AF is 3 or less.
Column AF is counting entries in columns E:I by using the formula
=COUNTBLANK(E1:I1)
to create the value
A value of 5 is OK (no data in E to I), and 4 is also fine (just one entry in E to I) A value of 3 or less, indicating more than one column in E to I having data, needs to display the message. Presently I have a conditional format on another column to display red background when AF is 3 or less, but it's a little ambiguous, so a message would be neater!
Codes are entered manually only in Column A starting at A1..A10000+ ranges.
As Unique codes are entered ie. 1234 or 2345 or 3456 in the next empty cell down, I need a specific popup message for each of the three codes instructing the user what to do next.
I am attempting to have a pop message display when users of a certain form "X" out of the form. Below is what I came up with but it does not seem to be working:
Code: Private Sub IntroUpdate_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean) Call MsgBox("User closed the program before any formulas were updated.", vbExclamation, ".: ALERT: FM Program Tabs :.") End Sub
Currently the above is in the code section of the form (titled: IntroUpdate).
Also if the form unloads I do not want the message displayed - only in the event that a user "X" out of the specific form titled: IntroUpdate).
I have several workbooks that use macros from my personal macro library (MyExcelAddIns.xlam).
Some of these, especially new ones, get an error message every time I save them: "Privacy warning: This document contains macros, ActiveX controls, ... These may contain information that cannot be removed by the Document Inspector."
Then after I save it once or twice, the message goes away. Why am I getting this message? Why only sometimes? What can I do to get rid of it entirely?
I am looking for a macro that will find identical adjacent cells and merge them automatically without the standard warning prompt (of only retaining the data in the upper left cell). In the following attached example, on the worksheet 'Control', the button 'Automerge' should find all the identical cell groupings in the entire table and merge them immediately without a warning.
I want to create a pop up message showing count of cells turned red,each time the workbooked are opened.like column "I" has two dates in red colour,so the pop up will say "you have 2 contracts expired"
I have this code and would like that when you change the Target.Value it would pop a confirmation box with yes or no option. I know how to implement this for a button, but cant figure how do i do it with this code.
