Is there a way to activate a Macro with a conditional in one of the cells? It's like this, I want that if the content of A2 changes to "True" then C2,D2 and E2 change to bold and the background color change to yellow. Is there a way to do this?
View 14 RepliesI have a cell (B2) in which there is a formula referencing the value of another cell with the purpose of generating a URL- ="[URL] such that when a numeric value is entered in B3, B2 is made to contain the full URL including B3 as a unique identifier.
I have a macro which straightforwardly copies B2 and pastes its value in the same cell, rendering the text value of the URL.
How do I go about activating the URL as a hyperlink in the macro? It seems like if I click in the cell and hit return, or right-click/Hyperlink.../OK I'm creating a macro to reference the exact unique identifier present at the time that I'm recording the macro- e.g. if B3 is "123", I'm setting the macro to set B2 as [URL] rather than the actual unique identifier in B3.
Has anyone successfully activated the content of a cell as a hyperlink dynamically based on its exact content?
I've got a dataset of certain trades across different markets and traders, and on different days. The date of the trade is in column A, the contract ID is column D and the trader ID is column J.
Traders do not trade every day. I would like to insert a new row/rows for each date on which traders do not trade between their first and last trade, for each market in which they participate.
Is this possible using macros?
And, if so, then I would like to insert the high and low prices for the market on those dates from a different worksheet into the newly created blank rows. On this second workbook the contract ID is column A, the date is column C, the high price is column F and the low price is column E. I would like the low price to be inserted into column AJ on the original worksheet and the high price into column AK.
I have a fairly simple macro (below). I want it to do one more thing.....not run if the filters have not been changed. I would like to prevent the error that occurs if someone tries to run it and there are no filters active.

ActiveSheet.Unprotect "password"
ActiveSheet.ShowAllData

Consider using a Worksheet Calculate Event macro (not Change Event) to
monitor the cell in question and call your macro when conditions are right.

I want a macro to be activate ONLY when I check the checkbox. Right now, it activate the macro each time I checked the box.

Basically, I'd like my macro to be activated whenever the value in cell A4 changes. Cell A4 has a numerical value between 1 and 10. The macro clears a contents table. Here it is:

I'm trying to figure out how to activate a macro from combo box or list box.
But no success.
I have a list of names:
AAA
BBB
CCC
111
222
333
That I can view through the combo box.
I have created a list of macros, that carry the same names,
AAA
BBB
CCC
111
222
333
The Q is: how can I link each name to its own macro?
so when chosen, will activate the macro?

There are four sheets (labeled A,B,C)
Depending on the contents in cells in Columns A and B (which have 1000+ rows), I want to change the background color of a referenced cell elsewhere:
For each row (lets say from 2-1000)
1. If "A" cell is blank -- referenced cell (address in columns C & D) should be colorless -- (as in Row 2 --- cell Z5 in Sheet "C" should be colorless)
2. If "A" cell has text AND "B" cell is blank, reference cell should be colored BLUE -- (as in Row 3 --- Cell F3 in Sheet "C" should be BLUE)
3. If both "A" and "B" cells have text, reference cell should be colored YELLOW -- (as in Row 4 --- Cell C5 in Sheet "B" should be YELLOW)
While I could do this with a conditional format in every referenced cell, it would take too long to enter them.
I am writing a code that has a sheet change event linked to call on a number of macros. The vba works fine until I change another cell and it activates the same macro.
VB:

Case "1"

I have tried if statements and everything else I can find, most will not work, others report errors. The code and macros will be the same on many sheets but work independently and BI27 is the source of the change
Is it posible that when data or text is entered into a cell and the enter key is pushed that this can either run a macro or activate a hyperlink to go to another worksheet for user to follow further instructions?
OR instead of going to another worksheet a pop up message appears with instructions and then can be OK'd to remove message and proceed?
I have a program that has all Excel Workbooks in seperate instances of Excel. There is a very sound reason for doing this.
The user has maybe 3 to 10 workbooks open. There are times when a workbook is active and has a Macro Link to open one of the already open workbooks.
When the user clicks the link, they naturally get an error message stating that the workbook is already open. Then they have to close the error msg and click on the Macrosoft Tab and look thru the list of open workbooks and then click the one they are looking for. Additionally, in this Menu Program the user really doesn't even have to know the name of the various workbooks.
I hope everyone will believe me when I state that this program works berautifully.
Right now I am simply cleaning up and making a few little things work better.
QUESTION When the user clicks on a macro link that is to open a workbook that is already open, how - On error - can I have the macro continue on and activate the requested workbook - - - Please remember they are all in separate instances of Excel.
Since the code I'm using can determine if the requested workbook is already open, I think there has to be a way to activate that workbook.
I have a multi-sheet workbook. The first sheet is a summary of results from the rest of the workbook. I would like this summary sheet to auto-refresh itself each time the sheet is activated. The VBA code triggered by the Worksheet/Activate event feeds some parameters out to other sheets, then copies back the results to the summary sheet of the workbook.
While doing so, it keeps "reactivating" the first sheet, causing it to get into an endless loop that is triggered by the Worksheet/Activate event. Essentially, I'd like the Worksheet/Activate event to go dormant for 15 seconds or so each time it is triggered.
I need macro that can search through worksheets and identify text urls (pair Networks - World Class Web Hosting.) within a cell and activate just those URLs that are not activated. I have many workbooks containing many worksheets. The URL references are always located somewhere down in column A after word 'Source:' but can be in the middle of string of text in that row after 'Source:'

The zero is a indicator for me when i work on these files if it is needed or not. Included the file as an attachement.

To summarize:
If the string's first caracter differs from "0"(zero) and differs from "1"(one) than prepend a "0"(zero). If the first caracter is 0(zero) or 1(one), leave the string as it is.
