I receive a Weekly list; let’s call it “Doc1” with a load of order numbers in column A. I then have another excel document, lets call it “Doc2” also with order numbers in column B.
Is there a way to see if an order number in Doc1 already exists in Doc2; perhaps change the font colour to red for example (in Doc1 only)? I don’t want to affect Doc2 in any way I am not allowed to alter it at all.
This code will take the value of the active cell (which is a filename) and open the corresponding PDF document of the same name.

fPath = "M:Books"
fExt = ".pdf"
fFullPath = fPath & fName & fExt

I have several excel documents all linked to one unique excel document which I will call document A.
Document A is a performance spreadsheet where I have percentages, sales figures and times, for my sales team.
Each sales person has their own unique dashboard (another excel document) that I am currently trying to finalize.
Their personal dashboards have pie charts with text boxes. The text boxes within the charts link up to their relevant cells in document A.
When Document A is open and I open 1 of the sales person's dashboards. Everything looks good and works, however.
When I close document A the dashboard information changes. For example, the dashboard information could be showing 25% but when I close document A it reverts to 0.25
If I close down the dashboard and open document A back up, change it to 30% then close it. The dashboard recognizes the change BUT reads as 0.30. This is the same with them all.
The only fix I have figured out is creating another tab in Document A then duplicate of all the information required for the dashboards then save the cells as TEXT (as opposed to currency, percentage etc).
This kind of defeats the object because I have formulas set up in Document A and don't want to be doing twice the work.
I have a file containing thousands of hyperlinks to respective image files. How I create a macro to save them with respective document names as shown in individual cells ?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am having problems opening Excel documents on first try. If I double click a excel doc icon it will start excel, hang for about a minute and a half then just display a excel blank doc. If I then go back to the original doc icon with excel still open and double click it again the document appears.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have 330 lines of formula that all reference to different excel documents. These files are donated by a 4 digit number. i.e. 4186.xls.
The main document that looks at these files needs to ability to acknowledge changes in the 4 digit number in its formulas and look at a different file if necessary.
EG. =sum("4186.xls"!E4:E5)
A very simple example of the formula i am using. I just need to actively change the 4186 that is in the formula to whatever is in the contents of another cell.
I might just be stupid. Infact, i admit i am no expert. That was my first =SUM formula actually.
I have a template that I wish to distribute to others. It will link to a second file (also distributed by me) that will be in each users' "My documents" folder (or "Documents" in Vista). I currently have the template set to look at "C:" as that is common for everyone. Turns out that creates other problems. However, now each user's file location will be unique due to the path of their documents folder
Question, is there a robust way to automate the finding of the linked file in the template without having each user "relocate" it? Reason is the template will be updated frequently and I want to ease their pain by not making them go through this every time.
Is it possible to link excel document that will update each other? I am looking for the capabilities similiar to linking worksheets in a workbook.

I have data concerning documents people have to write, which is updated weekly. Is there a way of looking up a name and then returning all the documents that they have to write.

I recorded the macro and it works fine the first time I try to test it but after it tells me that there is an error...
I'm not exactly sure what to do. Unfortunately, I could not find what I needed on youtube
Error: It talks about the object being out of range and allows me to debug... the code that is in the developer is:

Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Windows("Worksheet in Book1").Visible = True

ActiveWindow.Close
Sheets("Sheet1").Select

The Windows line is what it tells me to fix.. from there I am lost... Is it because I am trying to do a double clicking function?

I was just wondering if its possible to create a Hyperlink to open a location with the link ref in another cell?
For example, If I created a shape (Insert > Shape) then assigned a hyperlink to lets say Sheet 2 cell A1 & in that cell the link to open My Documents?
Sheet 1: Shape (as a button)
Sheet 2: Cell A1 - C:UsersUSERNAMEDocuments
Then when I click the 'button' it doesn't go to Sheet 2 cell A1 it actually opens the documents?

View 3 Replies View RelatedSome of my Excel files work perfectly in terms of undo/redo, while others simply cannot use that feature. I took a stroll through the internet looking for the answer, but the issues that I found seemed to point to the application losing its ability, which was resolved with a registry edit/update/change. I don't think that's the case here because I CAN undo is SOME documents.

How I can merge multiple word documents based on checkboxes selected on Excel.
Specifically, I have some 75 checkboxes found on Column F with linked cells on Column G (for example, checkbox1 place on Cell F1 linked to Cell G1). Each of the checkboxes have a corresponding Word document (containing text and tables about 1 to 4 pages in length). Based on what checkboxes are selected, I'd like to have those corresponding Word documents merge together and create an entirely new Word file (for sake of order, the datapoints from each selected Word document should be placed at the beginning of a new page in the new file).
The user will eventually name and save the new file on their own.
I'm not familiar with the required code as well as where it should be placed (whether on the excel file that contains the checkboxes, on the individual word documents that are eligible to be merged, or parsed out on all files).
