Checking References Automatically Through Code?

May 4, 2009

I have an excel add-in that has got few macros which require two references,

1) Microsoft Word 12.0 object library
2) Microsoft Internet Controls

I have checked both these references and the macros are running perfectly on my PC. but when I distribute this add-in, sometimes the references are checked but sometimes it gives an error and the user is required to check the reference again.

Can i use some code to automatically check these two references. or is there some other easier way to get rid of this error.

How To Automatically Update Cell References

Dec 20, 2013

Lets say I have two sheets titled "dashboard" and "raw data" in a workbook. Cell A1 in "dashboard" should always show the most up to date data from Row 1 in "Raw Data".

I update "raw data" daily, adding a new column to Row 1. For example December 19 would be A1, December 20 would be B1, December 21 would be C1 etc...How can cell A1 in "Dashboard" always reference the newest cell in Row 1 of "raw data"?

Absolute References: The Sub Worksheets To Update Automatically

Aug 4, 2009

I have a workbook with a main worksheet where all the data entry and calculations are made and then I have "sub" worksheets which mirror subsets (specific columns) of the information from the main worksheet. When information in the main worksheet changes, or rows/columns are added, I want the sub worksheets to update automatically.

The only way I can figure out to do this is to use absolute references in the sub worksheets. Does anyone know how to change the references to be absolute (using the F4 function) without having to do them one by one? Or can anyone suggest how I can achieve this in another way.

Code Loop Through Two Tables Checking And Altering

Nov 12, 2008

I have two tables of information. The first is a matrix with some distances. The second is a table of distribution. Ive been trying this for a long time now with limited success using a truth table but i've realised the only way to do this is in code. Ive got limited experience with this so please point me in the right direction.

Ive written some steps explaining what each table does here -

Step 1Check for lowest value B4:F4 in Table 1 (in example is 10)
Step 2Check corresponding column destination available capacity in table 2 (Example 500)
Step 3Distribute as much as possible from source in table 2 (500)
Step 4Reduce value in capacity line by value taken from source
Step 5If some source remains move back to table 1 and find next nearest column Dest
Step 6Repeat step 2 until all source is gone in row
Step 7 Check for lowest value B5:F5 in Table 1
if run out of capacity at all sites stop code
etc
until Table 1 column B is empty

Ive posted a spreadsheet with some before and after tables in it aswell. Its very small and formatted o its easy to see whats happening.

Hardcoded Cell References In Vba Code

Dec 20, 2006

I am modifying some vba code for an Excel workbook. The code references the row 35 a lot (altogether 16 times).

Example references:

With Worksheets("YTDBudget").Range("c35:c200")

For i = 35 To 999

Range("e35:h" & i).Select

Worksheets("Budget").Range("A35:D200").Copy _
Destination:=Worksheets("YTDBUDget").Range("a35")

Range("e35").Select

Rows("35:35").Select

Range("A35").ClearContents
Currently the "special row 35" is identical for a couple of sheets. Due to the nature of the changes I need to make there
is a good chance that "special row" will be different for each sheet (i.e. stay at 35 for one sheet but be 36 in the other).

I am thinking of creating a couple of public constants (Sheet1DataBegins and Sheet2DataBegins) that I can then use instead of the hardcoded 35. This presents problems in the I would have to string together the cell references like e35:

CellE = "e" & Sheet1DataBegins
Range(CellE).Select
Which looks kinda ugly to me.

This also has the problem with the column being hardcoded ... but that's another problem that I am not ready to tackle ... The original coding is not mine and I am just tasked with making a modification

Fix Sheet Order So Code References Correct Sheets

Sep 14, 2007

I would like to know whether its possible to fix a sheet to always be the second sheet in a work book no matter how many other sheets are added. Currently I have set up macros to add subsequent sheets before the last sheet, so that Sheets("Number 2") remain sheets(2). Is there some way I can lock the first two sheets so that when I reference them in my code as sheets(1) and sheets(2) it will reference the right sheets. Right now I have it set up so that Sheets("Number 2") can be renamed by the user, and data inputted on this sheet, but I require that the user not be able to move this sheet and the sheet preceding it.

Changing Hard Coded Column References To Variable References

Oct 22, 2009

I have a number of statements within the Sheet Event Code (Excel 2007). Three times lately I have added a column and had to go back into the code and find all of the references that needed changing to reflect the new column.

I have been working on this for a couple of days and even tried EE, but to no success.

I have read that Defined Names / Constants should be used as often as possible, but even trying that, the VBA code errors out or "hangs up". Even within Bill Jalen's book (VBA and Macros 2007), there is nothing that addresses this, especially using Intersect.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rng As Range

On Error GoTo mEnd
Set rng = Sheets("Log").[F14:F10000]
If Not Intersect(rng, Target) Is Nothing Then
If Target = "" Then
With Sheets("Log")

Converting Absolute References To Relative References In Formulas?

Feb 10, 2014

I set up formulas to count text characters in a range of cells. I'm tracking attendance and payments for a small yoga studio.

All I need to do is count "Y"s for prepaid attendance and "DI"s for drop-ins. I have the formulas working but they are absolute so inserting a row will break my sheet.

=COUNTIF(E14:Z14,"*Y*")
=COUNTIF(E11:Z11,"*DI*")

Structured References And With Cell References I Get A Column Of Zeros

Nov 25, 2007

It is suppose to be that if the employee is "FT" and has worked >=4 years the return is 15. But if the employee is FT and has worked 2 years but less than 4 years then it is suppose to return 10 (these are days off) Or if the employee is FT and has worked 1 year, but less than 2 then it should return 5 days off. And all the others in the column get no days off.

I have tried to do it with structured references and with cell references I get a column of zeros!

Autofill; Copy Down It Doesn’t Automatically Update The Cell References Because It Want To Update Them By Column Number Instead Of Row Number

Dec 11, 2008

I have a basic formula =C17+'Asset Depreciation 2008 Onwards'!C24, and I want to copy it down just using the drag function. Problem is that the second reference range of cells are in rows and hence when I copy it down it doesn’t automatically update the cell references because it want to update them by column number instead of row number. IE I want it to display =C17+'Asset Depreciation 2008 Onwards'!
D24, instead of C25. Do you know if there is any way of telling Excel that I want it to increase the column number by 1 every time, instead of the row number for this part of the formula?

VBA Code Not Running Automatically

Sep 28, 2009

I have written some code intended to automatically clear a cell when data appears in it from an external source. In one spreadsheet, it seems to work exactly as expected, ie when the cell is polulated, it immediately clears the contents. In another spreadsheet, with exactly the same code, it will not automatically clear. If I put it in debug mode and step through it line by line, then it does do as expected but otherwise it won't.

Automatically Colour Code Cells

Sep 25, 2009

Is there a way to automatically conditionally format each column in each row, when either open, closed or cancelled is selecting from a drop down in the Status column. For example every cell is blank in colour, but if I select open in the drop down menu for row A2, the entire row will turn Red. Just wondered if there is a way instead of individually formatting every row separately. I would like to be able to copy the formula or whatever down the entire sheet.

VBA Code To Automatically Update Using A Vlookup

Feb 13, 2009

I'm trying to write a VBA code to automatically update using a vlookup but I seem to be running into trouble, partically with the lookup value part of my vlookup. I basically have a range of dates in column B and want the values to appear in column C. Yes, I know I just type the forumla in column C and drag it down, but I really need to do it in VBA, as I want this to update when additional dates are added.

This is what I have thus far. The code keeps looping at i = i +1 and doesn't stop unless interuppted.

Sub update()
Dim i As Integer, L() As Range, s As Integer, V As Double
Sheets(1).Activate
s = Range("D:D").Select
On Error Resume Next
While s ""
i = i + 1
ReDim Preserve L(i To 1)
L(i) = s
Wend
If i = 0 Then
MsgBox "No dates found"
End If
Exit Sub

For i = 1 To UBound(L)
V = WorksheetFunction.VLookup(s, Range("Inputs"), 2, 0)
Next i
End Sub

Automatically Add Cell Formula With Code

Dec 4, 2006

Cell b2 contains the formula
=IF( COUNTIF(B$1:B2,B2)=1,MAX(A$1:A1)+1,"")
I want cell b3 to contain the formula
=IF(COUNTIF(B$1:B3,B3)=1,MAX(A$1:A2)+1,"")
I can do this within the spreadsheet by simply highlight and drag down to autofill and excel updates the formula references as I need

However - because the sheet gets very large (its a sort of rough database)
I dont fill in all the formulae on a blank sheet, but each time a record is entered using a VBA form I have the following working code copy the formula

ActiveCell.Offset(nextline, 0).Copy
ActiveCell.Offset(nextline + 1, 0).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste

However I dont want to use 'Active' - because I have to work out what cell is selected before this is executed and then reselect it after, which also causes the screen to flash when the active sheet changes so I tried the following which does not work

Worksheets(" Analysis").Range("A2").Offset(nextline, 0).Copy
Worksheets("Analysis").Range("A2").Offset(nextline + 1, 0).Paste

because 'object does not support this property or method' on the Paste.

I can save the code in a string and modify the string to generate the new code, but I cant find a way to assign the new formula to the next cell.
