VBA code in worksheet won't revert a changed cells color back to 0(white) after removing the comment.
Observations: code does set the desired cell colors to Yellow after inserting a comment, however removing said comment, and re-activating the worksheet does NOT reset the color after deactivating/re-activating the worksheet.

How to read and set a cell backcolor in VBA ?
I've tried all sorts of things ( interior. colour, interior.colorIndex) but nothing gets the correct color.
i had to change the color of cell to yellow if the cell content is "N/A"
i had write few lines but don't know how to move in a range cell by cell
I am dealing with several very large spreadsheets using VBA to do various things. I found that my code worked well, but was taking a long time to run. The biggest time consumer was my use of the AutoFilter features. I have since turned calculations to manual before my code runs and set it back to auto when my code is done running. What are the potential consequences of my turning calculations to manual and then back to auto?
View 2 Replies View RelatedPossible to set the BackColor of an ActiveX textbox to transparent? I have the BackStyle set to transparent, which is great since it will be transparent when not selected so you can see the color of the cell behind it, but once you select it to type in it, the BackColor overrides the cell behind it.
Right now, I have a sheet where the color of a cell changes to green if the textbox needs input from a user. If I have the BackColor set to white, the cell behind will change to green so the user knows they need to enter something in the textbox, but once they click the textbox, it goes white and may confuse them.
On the other hand, if I change the BackColor to green, it works great when the user clicks the correct textboxes, but if the user clicks the wrong textbox, it will 'incorrectly' turn green which may make the user believe they need to enter something in the textbox.
I am doing a spread sheet for participation in a class. What I want is for whenever a student is absent, i.e. has a 0 in their point box for the day, that cell turns red. I have tried to make the .find method work but it has been uncooperative and so far and I can't seem to get it to even run. This is what I have so far:
HTML Code:
Private Sub For_Loop_Click()
Set v = .Find(0, LookIn:=xlValues)
For Each v In [B6:B46]
Do
If v.Value = 0 Then v.Interior.ColorIndext = 3
Set c = .FindNext(c)
End If
End With
End Sub
When I click a Command Button I want a label to change color FIRST and THEN a message box to appear.
I use the following code, but what happens is: FIRST, the message box appears and THEN the label changes color, which is the wrong order. The label needs to change color FIRST.
Private Sub cbA_Click()
newcolor = vbWhite
ActiveSheet. OLEObjects("label1").Object.BackColor = newcolor
MsgBox "done"
End Sub
I'm not sure what I have done but one of my workbooks colour scheme has changed. When viewing the workbook cells are now grey and the lies are a lighter grey. When printing though it prnts as it would normally ie a white backgorund. It looks like the viewing colours have been reversed and I can not find out how to revery back to normal.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm using Excel 2010. I have developed a calculator (attached) to make life easier for my colleagues. It works perfectly fine. But one thing keeps bugging me.
In Cell C3 - You have the option to choose "Daily" or "Weekly" (Drop Down). This selection effects your selection for Cell C6.
If you choose Daily in Cell C3 then your options for Cell C6 are restricted to select/enter an amount between £0.00 and £6.00.
If you choose Weekly in Cell C3 then your options for Cell C6 are restricted to select/enter either £0.00 or £12.00.
This works perfect.
However, if I select "Weekly" and then select " £12.00", all my results are perfect which is exactly what I want BUT if I then go back up to C3 and change "Weekly" to "Daily", the £12.00 in C6 remains (though the data validation for "Daily" is restricted to £0.00- £6.00) and all the results are consequently wrong until C6 is changed.
The obvious thing is to delete the £12.00 from Cell C6 or introduce a "clear" button BUT I don't want my colleagues to do this as it leaves the possibility of error and since we are dealing with money, I can't have it.
So what I would love and what would complete this calculator and deem it ready is if every time Cell C3 is selected (i.e. from the drop down list you choose Weekly or Daily) it as a result resets Cell C6 to £0.00.

VBA code to do the following.
In F147 will go a value
Then if the value of F147 is greater than 20 the color of D144 would turn green.
I am trying to a macro that allows me to change the backgroud color and font color depending of the value of the cell.
For example is cell A1 is having the value between 1 to 3 the background color of the cell will the light turqoise, if the value is between 4 to 20 the cell background color will be green and so on.
I have based on certain posted example and adapt to my code but somehow it is not working.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
Select Case Target.Value
Case Is = 1, 2, 3
Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 34
Case Is = 4, 5, 10, 20
Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 43
Case Is = 30, 40, 50
I would like to have a vba code that changes the cell color so that if there is number 1 (just number 1) in some cell the background of the cell changes in to shade of grey and cell that has number 2 changes into darker shade of grey and so on. I have numbers 1-10 in random order in my sheet. I mean there is many cells that has the same number and the sheet is quite large so vba code would be ideal choise to do it quickly.

the reason I dont want to use conditional formatting is because the use needs to be able to copy and insert rows and by doing so the use would need to manually add the new cells into the conditional format range. I would like to come up with a macro that applies this condition to a large range.
also, were do I add this macro? under sheet1? this workbook? or as a module?

I have a table with rows and columns, to record status of various activities. One of these columns is to record when an update to a cell in the row has been made. I would like a macro that would, when the data in a cell has been changed, to highlight that cell in a different color and enter the date the change has been made, in the update column "Last Updated" for that activity. This way I can see what cells have been changed and when.

I have been trying to get a back button to work on an 2003 excel document that works like a website.
In the web toolbar there is a facility to go back and forward (very much like using internet explorer). I want a button on the actual sheet that does this command. If i record a macro and click the web 'back' button it records the end result of the process, not the process itself -
eg if sheet 1 and sheet 2 link to sheet 3 and I click a hyperlink from sheet 1 to sheet 3 then create a back button on sheet 3 and record a macro by clicking on the web toolbar back button the macro records the end result - eg Application.Goto Reference:="Sheet1!R14C8". However if i then go to sheet 3 through sheet 2, the back button I created takes me to sheet 1 not back to sheet 2.
Anyone know the code I could use to make it actually go 'back' to the previous page?
I have the code below set to change the background color based on certain conditions. What I need to do is change it so that if none of the conditions are met, it does not change the color at all. As it is written now, if anything is entered in a cell that has a background already set, but does not meet these conditions, the cell turns white.

Searching this forum for "sleep", "delay" or "animation" will bring up a host of threads referring to the kernel32 function, sleep. This is a great way of putting small delays into code without the potential "synchronisation" problems of application .ontime calls or the "ugliness" of multiple-thousands looping.
My question:
When I call sleep (with values in the hundreds of milliseconds) several times in a macro, it seems like the computer just "gives up" screen updating after a few (maybe 50) iterations. The macro still takes the time I'd expect, accounting for all the sleeps, but it stops showing the intermediate steps and just shows the end result after the macro ends.
Is this something to do with RAM? Is there something about calling this command too much or too frequently that kernel32 doesn't like? Is my computer a useless bag of nails and spit?

Is there a way to create a macro to color code a cell based on the value in a cell, and then look up a value in a table, then color code it based on where it fits into the table?
I have a table of values for about 30 projects. In column g - there is a CPI value (see bold column)

I have a small worksheet and hit CTRL-END, the cell at the lower right-hand corner of the smallest rectangle bounding used cells is selected. This might be, say, C10.
Now suppose I put some data into the sheet, and accidentally put data into all available rows in a column. Now I hit CTRL-END and it takes me to C65536. Now I select those rows and Delete them, selecting the option "delete entire rows" when prompted. But CTRL-END still takes me to C65536. How do I reset the sheet to once again think that only the first few rows are used?
I have a layout something like the following:

Where each (i.e., A1) represents a location. I have tried to use a coordinate system but this will not work for the back-to-back locations. (Assuming each location is 2 feet wide, For example A1 to C1 is 4 feet apart, not 2 feet (as Euclidean or rectilinear would calculate it as).
Would there be a way to incorporate an if statement for those locations that are back-to-back? As a rectilinear distance calculation would work as long as the locations are not part of the same "block".
Ultimately I am looking to have a matrix which contains all the distances between each location:
