Comment Hold Formula
Mar 11, 2007
I was toying w/ the idea of being able to view two items in the same cell. A wholesale cost and a retail cost, the wholesale would be in the cell and the retail price would be in the comment. When mouse is placed over a particular cell, a comment would pop up and show the second view, the retail price.
This to be effective would need to be copied down like a typical formula would be. If not, it would take too long to enter each item into a comment for each cell.
I really doubt this is possible, but if not in Excel, could this be accomplished in VBA?

how to copy the contents of multiple comment boxes and paste in a single comment box.
The big picture is that I have a number of cells with numerical values in and text in comment boxes. I want to be able to click a button to copy the contents of the comment boxes and paste them, along with the numerical value from the cell, into a single comment box, ordered by highest to lowest value within the comment box, then delete the original cells and comments.
I am quite new to VBA but have been coping quite well so far with information of the web and analysing recorded macros.

I am creating a spreadsheet that has various form controls, etc... in it and I wanted to create a "help" macro. I have a small Question Mark icon and I want the user to be able to click the icon and have little text boxes appear on the excel sheet with instructions.
I was wondering instead of making a toggle event where the user clicks once to turn on and again to turn off, if there was a way that the user could click and hold on the icon to make my text boxes visible....and when the user releases they disappear.

Does anybody know the memory limitations that Excel (2003) has with regard to the amount of vba code that a workbook can contain?
I have automated one of my spreadsheets to load a bunch of modules containing code (a few hundred thousand lines of code altogether). Before it finishes loading all of the modules I get a "Run-time error '7': Out of memory" error. When I press the Help button on the dialog I get a help page which says:
"More memory was required than is available, or a 64K segment boundary was encountered."
The help page goes on to suggest (among a few other things) that I might have a module or procedure that is too large. After reducing the sizes of individual procedures and modules, I am starting to think that there may be a limit to the absolute number of lines of code that can be stored within a single workbook.

I have attached a reduced example spreadsheet.
I have thousands of IDs each of which store a column called IM Limit. The ID is repeated on many rows - for each date that they have come into the system. For each ID over a period of time the IM Limit may change or it may stay the same. If it stays the same I would like all the other rows deleted, if it changes once during the period then I would like only two rows left behind each containing the unique value. So in the end I will have a list of codes where a unique combination of id and the im limit remains behind.
Does anyone know or have a VBA script that would be able to loop through the spreadsheet and delete the unwanted records.

making a macro that will scan for duplicates, length & empty cells.
I have the sample file below that does conditional formatting but it doesnt help as much because I want to show the reason for the highlight's on a comment instead.
sample file : [url]
file that might help out: [url]
checks would be:
column A - duplicates and/or length should not be over 100 characters
column B - duplicates
column F - should only contain 2 comma's(or 3 keywords)
all columns - check if no entries are found(empty cells)

I have been creating a simple database to hold a record of attendance.
I'm now at the stage where I want to create a worksheet that cannot be modified; but rather is something the user can look at in a glance.
I need forming a SUMIFS formula that will look for monthly periods of the times late, sick, absent etc and add them up to return to one place.
So the dependants will be the month, the employee and the type of record (late, sick, holiday)
I have created a userform that I can use to add in the raw data, so I'm not sure what range I can create, as every time new data is added it finds the next available row.
Here is what I'm using so far: [Code] ........
What the Overview will look like : Overview.PNG
What the raw data looks like : Raw Data to use.PNG
Do I need to introduce a matched up column that has the employee name and date?

I'm trying to find the max value in range of cells that hold text equivalents?
e.g. cells contain 001, 002, 003, 004.
therefore max value is 004
Dim lMaxVal As Long
lMaxVal = Application.WorksheetFunction.Max(Val(rangeHazRoomNum))

1. I can't remember it, but I know there is a command so that the view hold and that the selected tabs and cells does not show and the same view remains until the "unhold" is called in the macro. THEN the view is updated. What is this command again? Could not find it...
2. The macro needs to delete tabs at the click of a button (easy part) but for each deletion, a message appear:
Data may exist in the sheet selected for deletion. To permanently delete this data, press Delete. Is there a way to prevent the message from popping out when the macro is executed?

I want to show 8 members of staff's names, with their sales closing percentages. I want then to produce a chart showing their percentages as a column with a line showing 16% going across the chart showing who is above and who is below the target.
Ideally i would also like to change the colour of the columns or background of those below the line to show who is under target.

I have my dummy data, and I have (what I think) is how I want the data to be shown. My friend uses Google Sheets, but I prefer Excel. I am trying to convert the code because I am a stickler for excel. Typically I can convert codes some easily, but this is way beyond me.
For Column A: I want to create a list on sheet 'Setup!' based on ids!D2:D="yes". If that list has duplicate entries, I would like only the first entry to show up, but for the next entries I would like the cell to be blank. (this is important for the next step) For Column C: I want to have the corresponding dates go with the name entry. For Column D: I want to have the notes go with the corresponding date entry. (I believe I can manipulate Column C's code to do Column D myself).
I am also going to upload a data sheet, and an expected results sheet.

I wrote an excel program in Excel'03 for a dental office to manage state assistance patients and one of the table columns is the state assistance number. The problem is that the program defaults to a number format when it is entered instead of a text format, which is what I want. The issue is that state assistance numbers are always 8 digits and when it defaults to a number field the program drops the required preceeding zeros.
For example the number 00123456 will sometimes show up as 123456, which is wrong. It's like sometimes it will show up right and other times it gets a butterfly in its brain and deletes those zeros irritating the receptionist here. So, how do I get the table to either stay in text format or set up a number format that keeps the preceeding zeros?

I am trying to to get it to work so that if there is a comment already in the cell then it would skip to the next macro. Here is what I am trying:
'Mgr Voids
If Range("F9").Comment.Text = True Then End
ElseIf Range("F9").Value > 50 Then
MyInput = Application.InputBox("You Must Give A Reason For The Amount Of Mgr Voids For " & Range("F6"))
ElseIf MyInput = "" Then End
ElseIf MyInput = False Then End
ActiveSheet. Unprotect ("13792468")
ActiveSheet.Range("F9").AddComment
Range("F9").Comment.Visible = False
Range("F9").Comment.Text Text:="" & Chr(10) & (MyInput) & Chr(10) & ""
ActiveSheet.Protect ("13792468")
End If
The first part (If Range("F9").Comment.Text = True Then End) obviously doesn't work because I have no clue how it supposed to be... I was just hoping to get lucky. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Shawn

I am building a tool that uses Pivot Tables (so I can't use track changes) and I have found cool code that will insert timestamp and username in the comment when a change occurs. But I need to modify the code to also take the old value and put it into the comment as well. Here is the code to register the change into the comment:

Is it possible to trigger a forced comment if a particular value is entered in a cell?
For instance, if the letter "F" is entered into a cell, I want the comment box is pop up, is this possible?
And lastly... is it possible to automatically group comments? for instance if a row has 6 comments, I'd like to combine all of them into a comment box on the same row.

What I need; I want a comment on my spreadsheet to be clickable, when it's clickt it needs to follow the path (written in cell B55) to an image.
I know the trick of making a normal hyperlink (to for example www.mrexcel.com)
But I can't get it working for an image; tried file://c:/test/test.jpg
Is there an ******* event for comments? Or is it possible to create a hyperlink in the comments to the image?

I'm using Excel 2002 and looking for a way to get rid of the red comment indicator in entirety. While I get that it's not possible there appears to be a workaround which I took off the Contextures website.
Sub RemoveIndicatorShapes()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim shp As Shape
Set ws = ActiveSheet
For Each shp In ws.Shapes
If Not shp.TopLeftCell.Comment Is Nothing Then
If shp.AutoShapeType = _
msoShapeRightTriangle Then
shp.Delete
End If
End If
Next shp
End Sub

I have Sheet1 and Sheet2, each sheet has 2 columns.
Sheet1:
John 31
Joey 22
Josh 28
Jane 24
Sheet2:
Joey Smith 22
Josh Morgan 27
Jane White 24
John Doe 32
Lookup Sheet1's each Column A cell on Sheet2.
For example, Sheet1 A1 is John, Sheet2 A4 is John Doe, since John Doe contains John, it's a match. Then compare Sheet1 B1 and Sheet2 B4, 31 and 32 don't match. This is what i need to find, then add a comment "Inconsistent" in a new column.
For example, Joey (Sheet1 A2) and Joey Smith (Sheet 1 A1) have same value 22 (Sheet1 B2 and Sheet2 B1). Then no need to add any comment.
