However, I would like to call this same macro when using another workbook. I copied the macro "Clearformating" and pasted into a personal macro workbook module. However when I add this code to the sheet tab it will not run the macro.

i use excel 2007, it s slow to open a file by double-clicking and entering from windows explorer, by googling i fould a fix by adding "%1" at the end of command in "Application used to perform action" (folder options/file types/xls/advance/open). however, to open files in the same instance, i have to keep "DDE message" with [open("%1")]. With both "%1", excel now opens twice.
How to fix it?
I would like to run a macro by clicking a cell. I don't want a toolbar button/menu item and Hyperlinks don't work. Can this be done?
More info: My macro selects the current row in Sheet A and moves it (cut & Paste) to Sheet B in the workbook. The macro then goes back to Sheet A and deletes the now blank row.

I have created a macro that autofilter values in sheet 2.
In sheet1 I have a cocpit of values from Sheet 2, 3, 4 and 5.
In the monitoring cells in Sheet1 I would like to doubleclick (or similar) in the cell where I have a value from ex sheet 2, and then trigger the macro which does the autofiltering.
I am trying without success to for a macro to run when a specific cell is activated. i.e. if a users selects cell A1, macro X will run.

View 13 Replies View RelatedI have two buttons in my excel ("Fund Set up" & "Broker Set up") sheet1. so what i need is when i click the button named as "Fund set up" a input box should appear as "Enter the volume" and the user has to input the volume..For ex, user has entered the volume as 2. After that a line of data should be populated automatically from col A2 to col E2 as below.
Similarly if i click the "Broker set up" button the same action should happen but the activity should be populated as "Broker set up".
S.No Date Activity No.of Req Type of Action
1 21/01/2014 Fund set up 2 Input
2 21/01/2014 Broker set up 4 Input
So whenever i click any of this two buttons a input box should appear to get the volume and once the volume is entered by the user an entry should be populated as above in a new line.

View 7 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to remove the option to open a file as read only when the file is already open by another user? Ideally when a user tries to open a file that is already in use they would get a message to that effect and the only option at that point would be for them to select "notify" when file is available.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am about to write a small macro to do a iteration calculation. I would like though for the user to select me a cell so that the macro uses the value in that cell to start calculations. Now, what I think would be the problem is how do I code a "time" or notice an action such as clicking in a cell to continue with the macro.
Would it be by inserting a pause in the code of a certain time so that gives the user time to click and wait for the code to start? If so, how would much time is enough? Is there another thing that could restart the code such as "noticing a click in a cell" command in VBA?
I'd like to build two macros that are slightly different but are both along the same lines.. The first one will take only certain columns of information from the "Master" sheet and dump them into the "Public" sheet. (I want only certain information to be seen by others). I.E. say I only want columns A, H, K, L from the master sheet to go in A, B, C, D in the Public sheet. I hope thats enough detail.
The other macro I want to build will take the A, B, C, D information from the Public worksheet and dump it all into another workbook called "Client Lists". The link to these two documents would be over a network so there shouldn't be any issue there... This way, all the people I work with can have this document and have up-to-date information on clients etc.ed...
Currently where I work we print out registers to keep track of student attendances. This is done by merging an excel document that contains all the details of the names, days, dates , times, student groups and rooms of each lesson (each row contains the details for one lesson) with a word document containing the appropriate list of students in each specific group along with blank mail merge fields that relate to the excel document.
There are often 100 lessons a week meaning it takes an age to merge all the documents to create the registers.
Instead of this method I'd like the tutor to print off their own register by opening the excel document and clicking a button at the end of the appropriate row that contains the details for the lesson they are teaching. This would then take the details from that row and generate the appropriate register on another worksheet. Importantly it would have to list the correct group of students for each lesson - the names of these groups would be listed on other sheets.
Im guessing macros would be the right way to do this, but I have no real knowledge of them so alternatives would be helpful. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I've included a sample of how it would look with just one lesson in the excel doc.
Basically I want the macro to look through a column of values and if any cell in that column has the value 'LOCK' the macro would hardcode 'n' into the adjacent cell. Additionally, because the column in which the LOCK cells would appear is part of a vlookup, it returns #N/A which I would like my macro to ignore and then continue to evaluate the next cell all the way to the end of the column.
The code is the following:
Sub Hard_Code_Cells()
On Error Resume Next
lastrow = Cells.Find(What:="*", After:=Range("A1"), LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
[Code] .......
I've been receiving the error message 400 when I trigger the macro and I'm not sure how to correct my code to resolve the issue.
I am writing a grading program, which during the course of functioning must run other code that has errors. I have used On Error Resume Next code to allow the program to keep functioning when it has run into errors so far. However, when a subroutine is called that calls another subroutine with incorrect parameters, I get a VBA error message pop up. Inserting On Error Resume Next directly into the other code doesn't stop this problem. I either need a way to have it skip over any call to a subroutine with improper parameters, or to check if a project can compile before grading it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am running into a Procedure too large error when running my macro. My macro is designed to replace a cell value with another cell value in a list. When the cell value is replaced a vlookup brings in new data to my workboook. Then the macro refreshes all the pivot tables and saves the workbork. I want my macro to repeat the above 60 times, so I have copied the code 60 times and changed the ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 to point to the next value in my list. (Is there another way to select the next value from the list without changing the Row and Column number?) This is where my macro fails.
Below is my code.
VB:
Sheets("Data").Select
Range("B2").Select
[COLOR=#FF0000] ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[25]" ' AGC GRP_ID[/COLOR]
Sheets("Ship pivot and cum triangle").Select
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable4").RefreshTable

I created three macros to work with reporting for my company.
One sorts a field, another deletes unwanted columns, and the third double checks columns for answers--I work for a telecom polling firm.
It was working last week on my computer, and it still works on another computer at the office. However, I keep getting an error message when I try to run it.
The message is "Compile Error: Expected Function or Variable". The code is below, and bolded where it breaks down.
--selection.Autofilter

What could be the rationale for the sudden breakdown? I was testing it on a file that I have tested with before without issue. I also tried a second file, and even restarted my computer. I am currently trying to write a fourth macro for counting responses and giving percentages, so while I don't need to have the perfectly cleaned data to do so it would be nice to have.
I am creating some code to unprotect a workbook, unhide columns, delete a series of cells, rehide columns and then reprotect the workbook:

I have several option groups (Y & N in each) linked to cells to display TRUE / FALSE depending on which option is selected in each group. I have another cell which I want to apply conditional formatting to if EITHER Y or N is selected in all groups. At present I use COUNTIF to check for FALSE=0 in the linked cells which works if all the answers are Y. How do I apply CF if there is a mixture of Y & N (TRUE / FALSE) in all groups (I'm not sure if I've explained that well or not).
