I have a drop down lets say in cell A1. Based on what value is selected in A1, the user should see a different set of check boxes. My thought, which may not be the best way to implement this, is to have all the check boxes and depending on the value selected in A1, the check boxes that are relevant should be active or visible, while the unneeded ones are inactive or invisible.
View 9 RepliesOnce again I strugle with how I write the title for my IF Function problem, but anyway.
This is my problem:
I have a spreadsheet to count times
column D and F is:
D Start
F Finish, on column G, I have "F-D"
I start in D2 and type the first time.
F2 = D3 and
G2 = F2-D2,
If I have nothing in D3 I got an error, and if I don't fill all sheet I also got an error. What I want is, in the end of the row I have a cell with the final time "D36" where "F35=D36" if I made only half a way lets say until "D19" then "F19" should be = to "D36" and not = to "D20", stopping like this the calculations, doesn't give me errors.
The rows will differ depending on the Active Cell that's selected and I don't know how to specify this.
The range I want to copy is from Column B to DA on the worksheet ("Staff") which I want to paste to another worksheet ("Leavers"). This is as far as I got
'FindRemove = lstRemove.Value
'If FindRemove = "" Then End
' Goes to the start of the Data column
'Sheets("Staff").Select
'Range("B4").Select
' Tests current cell against FindRemove
'Do
'If ActiveCell.Value = FindRemove Then
'Call CopyPerson
'Exit Sub
'Else: ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
'End If
'Loop Until ActiveCell.Value = ""
'End Sub
So, I just started checking Excel Macros. I'm working on a quite large data base where I need to search for a given part number and then move N columns to the right and display the text inside that cell on a message box.
Here's what I got 'til now:
Private Sub M0016216_Command_Button_Click()
Cells.Find(What:="M0016216", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt _
:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
ActiveCell.Select
[Code] ........
I'm not sure why I can't get this to work.
I need to abort the macro if the active cell is empty.
I've tried:
If ActiveCell.Value = "" Then Exit Sub
and
If IsEmpty(ActiveCell) Then Exit Sub
but neither work. I've found other solutions that test for a particular cell (A1 for example), but I need to be able to test the active cell, which may be any cell on the worksheet.
I've been racking my brains trying to figure this out but cant, please can someone assist. I need to write some vba code that looks at cells in column aa and ag (on the same row) and displays a message is ag > 0 and aa <> "Agency".

So the constraints are
1. if there's a value in name or names count => must be at least one value in test1 or test2
2. last value in names count must be equal to the sum of trues in B1:B4 Problem Is it possible to identify once any of the cells in A9:D12 are activated that once that range is deactivated I run the check to make sure the constraints are met, and populate default values in the case they are not?
Is it possible to identify once any of the cells in A9:D12 are activated that once that range is deactivated I run the check to make sure the constraints are met, and populate default values in the case they are not?
Trying to figure it out with a some combination of: checking if the last cell I was in was in the range and I am no longer in that range; using the selection change change event?

I have a macro that is intdended to run after the user has selected a cell in column A:A (any position except A1)
Once the user has selected their desired cell, they press a button and the macro runs.
Occasionally a user will press the button without selecting a cell in the proper column.
I would like a message box to pop up to tell the user "Please select an account in Column A" and bump the cursor (active cell) to A2 so at least it's in the right column to help get them started.
I have a button that has a macro asigned to it. i don't want it to be active
or able to run unless it sees data in cell D25.
It might be very simple, but all I need is if I have data on A1, and i have 3 check boxes labeled: NEW, EXISTING, and ARCHIVED. I want it to automatically check the corresponding boxes. So if "NEW" is typed under A1, it'll check "NEW" box. "EXISTING" will check "EXISTING" check box and so on.

VB:
Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
If CheckBox1.Value = True Then [code]....
whenever the active cell is within a given range, highlight the cell on the same row in column S (by changing its interior colour). This should occur each time the active cell is changed, whether by cursor keys or mouse. The effect would be similar to the row and column highlights at left and top of the worksheet.
This action should be restricted to one sheet in the workbook.
It's for Excel 2003.

2) have a copy of Active Workbook Path stamped onto spreadsheet with date and time to create a visual record of where the file has been saved (described after the code below).
1) I need to verify that two cells (S7 and S9) are not blank before running my code below (=IF(OR(S7<>"",S9<>""),RUN CODE,"You must select your Provider or Division before you can save this document")).
- If both of these cells are blank a message box should notify the user that they must select the provider and/or division before they can continue with the save.
- If one or more of these cells are not blank the code below should run.
I have data in Row 53 that spans 7 columns, but stays in the same row. I want to design a loop to select every 7th cell in that row and check if it is empty. If not, add onto a "counter" then display the final number of occupied cells (the value of the counter) at the end. This is what I have so far, but I get all sorts of errors.

View 4 Replies View Relatedi have a workbook that contained a single sheet, i ciopied this sheet and amended them accordingly (ie picking up different variables etc).
For some reason every now and again some of the cells on the sheets that are effectively copies of the original dont update, i literally have to click on them and hit Enter.
I know that calculation is switched on as automatic.
I added a combo box to each sheet of a workbook. Each box referenced a range within the sheet and linked to a cell on the sheet. Each box was tested and worked perfectly. Yesterday. On opening the book today, however, I've discovered each combo box is dead in the water. They are totally inactive and can't be activated in any way. I've checked the properties sheet for each and can't see anything out sorts. As a test, I added a new combo box to a sheet, and interestingly enough, it not only works fine, but also seems to have activated the original box, which also now works fine. Other boxes on the other sheets are still inactive, however.

I am having a "cosmetic" issue that I was curious if I can fix it.. I have a workbook that opens a network workbook, saves some data to it, and then closes the network workbook.
Everything is working fine, except I cant get the code to "reactivate" the initial workbook. After excel saves and closes the 2nd workbook I opened, my screen stays on my desktop, instead of refocusing on the initial workbook. I have to manually click on the initial workbook in my taskbar to bring it back into focus...
I thought the below code would bring the inital workbook back into "focus" on the users screen, but it's not working.
Windows("NEWRightFit.xls").Activate
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
ActiveWorkbook.Save
ActiveWorkbook.Close
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Windows("sxssubmit.xls").Activate
Confirmation.Show
End Sub
I just moved the Application.ScreenUpdating line as initially I had it at the very bottom, but that did not correct. The confirmation.show is just a dialog box that informs the user the changes were saved successfully. I would like the first workbook "sxssubmit.xls" to come back into focus automatically though, without the user having to manually select it from the taskbar.
What is my code missing?
I use the 'on time' function to kick users out of a shared workbook after 30 minutes of inactivity (i.e. no cells updated). Technically it works, as it does kick out the users.
However the time after which it does so seems to bear no relation to the time I have instructed. Sometimes shorter, sometimes longer! If it is was always longer, I would be happy that there is an error in my code somewhere (i.e. the time value is resetting on an unexpected event that I need to find and alter).
I need to grab data from one sheet while I'm in a different one - same workbook, however. From the first sheet, the data that I need would be an "activeCell.value" issue. From the other sheet, however, how can I get that cell's data - an "inactiveCell.value" call, in essence? Right now, I'm getting around it by assigning the value to a global variable but that seems wasteful.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to create ranges in a worksheet that is inactive.I have 3 sheets in the worksheet and i want, while the first sheet remains active, to create ranges in the second one.
I'm using the following code that creates no errors no matter how i use it but it works only if the second sheet is active.
In VBA, is there code to clear all filters from an inactive worksheet or does the worksheet need to be activated?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI open two spreadsheets only. In one of them I would like the filename of the other spreadsheet shown in cell A1.
The reason why is the filename is a 6 number date and I'd like to confirm it showing in full format.
CopyPaste operations leaves the goal range selected and I don't want that. The .Activate and .Select methods seem to require that the cell to be selected refers to the ActiveSheet.
What I'm doing now to change the active-cell is kind of:
1. Disable ScreenUpdating
2. Save a reference to ActiveCell
3. Activate the relevant goal-worksheet
4. Change the ActiveCell to the upper-left-cell of the Selection
5. Come back by the reference in point number 2
6. Enable ScreenUpdating.
It works, but seems to me as a huge job for something as simple than "collapsing" a multi-cell-selection. Another irritating problem is the slight screen-shaking caused by the disabling/enabling ScreenUpdating.
I tried to use Workbooks("Inactivebookname.xlsm").Close False
and many variations thereof, but I simply cannot close this workbook when currently another workbook is active.
