I have a macro to copy a merged cell from one sheet and paste it to another as a merged cell. Basically, I want to copy it AS IT IS and paste it AS IT IS. My code is below.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI found this great code on this forum to disable copy/paste.
I would like to also disable ClearContents..
I can gather from the code that I just need to add a line similar to
EnableControl 755, False ' pastespecial
but change the # for the clearcontents command. But How can I find that number?
Sub DisableCopyCutAndPaste()
EnableControl 21, False ' cut
EnableControl 19, False ' copy
EnableControl 22, False ' paste
EnableControl 755, False ' pastespecial

What I’m doing is sorting one page and copying the information to another page in the same workbook. But I keep getting this stupid error.
Run-time error '1004'
This operation requires the merged cells to be identically sized.
I inteded to look at the contents for column B from row 16 down to whatever had data and clear any contents. The firs time I ran the loop, it worked nicely. However, the second time I ran it, it cleared contents from row 16. The third time I ran it, it cleared data from row 15, so forth and so on. In other words, the loop keeps moving up in rows clearing data that I want to keep. Is there any way to tell the code that I only want to whatever data there is BELOW row 16?

I Want users to be able to copy a reference number from a an external program into excel, this works well for single cells but the cell I want them to be able to paste the information into is a merged cell and keep getting the "Data on the clipboard is not the same size and shape blah blah error". What I can do to get this information to paste? Is there some VBA that can kinda trick the cell to believe its single or when pasting it unmerges and then remerges again?

View 2 Replies View RelatedThe issue that I am having is with merged cell data. What I am trying to do is check the value of the merged cell against a selection from an array and place the value into a cell.
What apparently occurs is that if the row that I am on is an even number (being as my rows start on an odd number); the reference returns empty. I have tested to confirm that this only affects even numbered rows. My spread sheet has a 2 row merged cell in column 2, and the cell I am referencing from is on the second row of that merged cell. Here is some
I am working on an FMEA and have a slight issue.
I have a number of merged cells in Column B.
I have merged 30 rows of column B to one Failure mode let's say 'Gaps'.
In column C there are 30 individual items relating to gaps.
When I want to filter column B to look at Gaps, it only returns the first row of the merged cells. So instead of getting the entire merged cells as a result of my filter, I get 1 row.
I hope this is clear. My question is, is there a method of filtering so that the whole merged cell is returned?

How to add a watermark to the sheet on each tab. Now when the script is called it stops and give the following errors:
Run-time error '1004': cannot change part of a merged cell.
I searched for merged cells in the document and as far as the script is concerned there are none, other than maybe this new watermark.
So, does VBA or scripting think that a watermark is a merged cell?
Any workaround if it does think of it as being merged?
Here is the current script we are using:

Is there any quick and easy way to unmerge merged cells and put the merged cell value in all the merged cells. For example, if I have A6:A15 merged together and its value is "FirstMerge" then I would like to unmerge all A6:A15 and then put "FirstMerge" in all the cell A6,A7,A8 etc. etc. upt oA15. I have lot of these merged cells in a sheet and I get this every month and makes any data processing very difficult. A macro or VBA code or any other solution will be fine.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI feel like I have lost some functionality due to merged cells. For a worksheet change event I have the following:
ElseIf Target.Value = "" Then ... blah blah blah
For a normal cell, every time a cell is deleted (in the appropriate target zone) then it runs the code I have in the subsequent lines
Except it doesn't work for merged cells, unless I manually go into the cell, backspace all of its contents and then press enter
Is there a way to automate the resizing of a row to accomodate the text that is pulled into a cell as the result of a formula?
I have a merged cell which receives the result of a DGET formula. The result can be as few as 6 lines of text or as many as 24 lines.
I suspect I need to count the number of lines in the result and resize based on that count multiplied by 15 points.
I don't know how to write the VBA but it would be kind of Resize Row.Countlines x 15 pts. and be executed by the event of calculating the formula from its default setting.
Practically speaking, the default setting is sized per the result of the desired code: there is a blank formatted merged cell that can be manually overwritten that is sized by the typical number of bullet points.
I have many columns in my current spreadsheet but I have two columns that I want to split in to two project names.
Currently I have one column with: Project A/Project B And the second column with the total cost of Project A AND Project B combined
The thing is that I can easily just create a new line but that would mean all the data in the other Cells remain the same and the only two that will be different are the above two columns. I will be maintaining alot of rows so I was hoping I do not have to create two rows for every new item then to merge both rows in reach column every time I have to put in a new Item.
I am hoping to have for example the below
Name Comments Project Cost
-------------------------------------------------
Item 1 This item relates Project A $150
to upgrade of Project B $120
SAS system
----------------------------------------------------
Currently I have it as
Name Comments Project Cost
-------------------------------------------------
Item 1 This item relates Project A/B $270
to upgrade of
SAS system
---------------------------------------------------
I'm using Office 2007 professional and I'm trying to format a cell (merged cell) so that when you enter text and it goes beyond the size of the designed cell that it will automatically continue and shift the additional text downward, like a paragraph. Also it shift everything below down with it. Is this possible? I have already tried wrap text field and AutoFit row height. This keeps it within the cell but it is not visible or printable once you tab out. I would like to have it continue like in a paragraph. Like a word doc may do. It’s visible and it shifts everything below downward as it grows, which also allows it to be printable.

View 4 Replies View RelatedIn the attached file I have three merged ranges, A3:C3, D3:F3 and G3:I3.
I would now like to create a formula in each cell in row 1 that will return the date in the corresponding cell in row 3. E.g. A1:C1 will each have the date in merged range A3:C3, etc. The merged ranges in row 3 may not all be three columns wide so any way to extract the dates to row 1.

I am doing an export of info from one system and running an excel spreadsheet to manipulate the data. The problem is..That the exported data sometimes will export info into combined cells. Look at attachment
This is what I need...
I need the ability to search all the info on the POC tab and pull it into the info tab, by searching on a system and returning the POC info..
I have tried the vslookup formula and it will return the first row not the second row which is where the info is that I need (shown Highlighted)
=VLOOKUP(A4,POC!A2:b50,2,FALSE)
I try to unmerge cells A1:A5 based on a value "unmerged" in cell G1.
Also if I select "merged" in cell G1 (data validation), then cells A1 to E1 will merge to a single cell A1.
I would like to test how many cells have been merged in a given cell. I know about the MergeCells property which returns true if the cell is merged. But how do i retrieve the number of merged cells in that cell (supposing it is merged, of course).

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using excel as a base for formatting reports, and collating logical paragraphs, which I want to display in one massive merged cell on another worksheet.
The paragraphs are different for each report, and I do not wish to manually enter them in each time. I also want them to display as seperate paragraphs on the page, but in the same cell.
To throw a spanner in the works, the paragraphs are all of indeterminate length, otherwise, I could use different cells. If I combine them in the massive merged cell by using =cell1&cell2&cell3 then they will just appear merged as one whole huge paragraph. I want them to appear as separate paragraphs in the same big cell.
following on from previous post (http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...g-up-form.html) what if the selected cell is a merged cell (cell count is greateer than 1), what is the best solution to enable double click event on merged cell ?
