Check For Valid Sheet Name

May 20, 2008

I have a macro that creates a new sheet and names it based off a cell value (date, MM-DD-YY), and copies a 'Template' sheet to it, values only. Every so often, two sheets need to be made with the same date. I need the right direction in creating an addition to the below code that will add an A, B, or C at the end of the sheet name if the name is already taken?

Run Macro To Check If Hyperlinks Are Valid?

Jan 22, 2014

I have a large spreadsheet that has thousands of hyperlinks that I would like to check periodically to make sure they are up to date. I have found dozens of examples of VBA code that will do this for me and seemingly very clear instructions on how to do it (for example this), but haven't yet been able to successfully run anything in my spreadsheet. It either doesn't do anything, or I get an error message of a bad file name.

Check Cell For Valid Time

Aug 26, 2007

I am using VBA to determine the data type of the active cell value. I have the following:

'To check Number
IsNumeric(ActiveCell.Value)

'To check Date
IsDate((ActiveCell.Value)

'To check Formula
ActiveCell.HasFormula

'To check Text (*not perfect solution)
WorksheetFunction.IsText(ActiveCell.Value)

However, I cannot find the way to check for Time. In addition, the method IsText will return True even if the active cell value is a date.

Valid Email Check Within Regular Cell?

Feb 18, 2014

I have a cell in which I would like to have a user enter an email address. If it does not follow a valid format I would like it to display an error message, "Invalid E-mail Address", clear contents and re-select the cell otherwise move to the next cell. By Valid email I want it to check for only one "@", and at least one "." but I also want it so that a user can't just bypass it with typing "@.". I would like it to reject special characters and spaces and only allow "-" and "_" maybe a general format of <name>@<place>.<domain>

The cell in question is K45 and the following cell would be K47 if a valid email is entered

VBA - Check If Data Entered Is Valid Date

Aug 19, 2012

Any way to check if data entered is a valid date using a VBA function/routine?

For example, cdate() and isdate() functions accept dates like 31-Feb-12 and 29-Feb-11 when they are not valid.

If the cell is formatted as date format, then Excel replaces hyphens with forward slashes for dates, except invalid ones like 31-Feb-12 and 29-Feb-11, so in these cases I can test for existence of forward slashes in the following way

Len(Mid(pCell, InStr(pCell, "/") + 1, Len(pCell) - InStr(pCell, "/"))) 7

However this approach fails for Input boxes. Obviously I can't convert the Input box response using cdate function as it will incorrectly accept 31-Feb-12 as a valid date.

Any routines that will work for both cell entered and Input box entered dates?

I need to create a leave tracker wherein i will get the names of the person who want to take leave in that particular month. I have prepared a calendar to make an entry. I need to take care of the following things

1) The person must have sufficient leave balance available to take the leave. so i have to first check if he/she has sufficient leave balance.

2) There are four team leaders and each team has around 13-14 members. so if lots of people from the same team apply for the leave then they will not be eligible for leave. this i want to know in percentage as to how much percentage of people are taking leave from that particular team.

Pre-Checking Valid Sheet Names In Hyperlink

Jan 18, 2012

I have the following macro, which is assigned to ctrl+shift+h to allow users to make a list and to insert hyperlinks to other sheets that have more details than the list can show:

Code:
Sub linker()
Dim strDocument As String
Dim strSheet As String
Dim strAddress As String
Dim strLink As String

[Code] .......

I was surprised to see that even if the contents of the active cell is not a valid sheet name in the target document, the link is still inserted without error. If the link is subsequently clicked, the target document will open and an "invalid reference" error box will appear.

Is there any way to check whether the contents of the cell constitutes a valid sheet name in the target workbook at the point at which the hyperlink is created, without opening up the target document?

VBA - How To Control Search And Replace To Only Be Valid For Defined Sheet

Apr 5, 2013

I import some text from a web page. The data is separated in rows and columns so it easily slip into cells in a nice row and column manner.

Now, I want to parse some names in one column (column A:A). The names do not reside in any other column. I want to change the content for those cells that is "Alpha Beta" into just "Beta", and I only want the replacing to be carried out on a specific sheet (named "Import").

I've recorded a VBA script and it look like this:

Cells.Replace What:="Alpha Beta", Replacement:="Beta", LookAt:=xlPart,
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False

But, when I try different setting for the range I get the same script, I mean, for when I try the search & replace with settings for both the whole workbook and for the current sheet.

How can I control the search & replace with VBA to only be valid for a defined sheet?

Mar 26, 2007

I have a userform that copies a sheet in the workbook, renames the sheet & creates a hyperlink to that sheet using the following code.

Private Sub cmdEnter_Click()
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
If ActiveCell.Column <> 1 Then
MsgBox "Go to column A to before inserting a row"
Exit Sub
End If

The problem I have is I can't figure out how to incorporate error checking if the sheet already exists.

What I would like is a message stating that the sheet exists and allow the user to make required changes on the userform.

Check If Sheet Empty Other Than Header

Nov 10, 2006

I need to figure out how to tell if the sheet is empty with the exception of the header row that resides in Row 1. I have looked though the archieves, tried about 10 - 15 possible solutions, only for one thing or another to go wrong.

What this does is, if the data sheet is empty except the header, I need it to report that the user must add data. I have it checking row 1 column 1 but thats the header, and row 2 column 1 may or maynot contain data..

So if row two is empty then report that the sheet is empty, sans the header.

Sheet name = Data
Row 1 has header
Row 2 competely empty?
