I'm trying to copy all the sheets into a new workbook but the following code does not copy the workbook object called "ThisWorkbook", it does copy ALL the other sheets however.....
The "ThisWorkbook" object appears at the end of the list names "Microsoft Excel Object" after all the sheets are listed in the VBA project explorer, like this.....
I have made a macro that displays a textbox containing the contents of a cell once the cell is clicked. The macro is written in the 'ThisWorkbook' module in the Sub 'Worksheet_SelectionChange'.
Now I want to convert this macro into an add-in so that it works on all the Excel workbooks I open. Is it possible to do this? Or is there a way in which we can automatically put the code in the 'ThisWorkbook' module of any open worksheet (doesn't seem feasible).
I use a code in ThisWorkbook to always open on sheet 1 when opening up the excel spreadsheet.Is there a code that I could put in to ThisWorkbook that would do a check that the workbook was e.g. "WorkbookA". If it wasn't then the start up code would be cancelled/ignored.The reason for this is that I am copying this workbook whenthe user has entered details in to it and so I do not want this code to run in the saved workbook, that will have a different name.
I am trying to figure out the correct way to copy the "ThisWorkbook" module from one file to another. I have looked at Chip Pearson's website page on the topic but am still confused. If its only this one component that you wish to take to the new file.
I noticed all the code that i have on a userform using activeworkbook will relate to whatever the last active workbook was "who would have guessed hay" Seeing thisworkbook used a lot i decided to go through the whole project and change all activeworkbook too thisworkbook.sheet1 During this i also made a few other changes that i was confident in, When i run it now it errors on the thisworkbook.sheet1. Is this the wrong way of using thisworkbook to make sure the code always deals with the correct file. (will this ever be affected if the file goes through a Save As) Or is it during my over conifedents that i have made a error somewhere else and the debuger is point me here cos it hates me.
Is it possible to use VBA to call an existing Excel function? I want to have code that calls up the "Insert - Object" popup window in the same manner as it would if the user clicked the toolbar.
I do not want ThisWorkBook to close prematurely whenever the specified Activeworkbook is closed without saving because there are other tasks to complete. The Workbook_BeforeClose dun seem to fix it for my case below.
Here’s my situation. I want to copy data from a range of a particular protected sheet in 5 (password-protected) workbooks of a similar format, to 5 worksheets(unprotected) in ThisWorkBook, which is the Master Workbook. The password of the protected sheet is common to the 5 workbooks. The passwords of the 5 workbooks are contained in a sheet in ThisWorkbook. After copying the data from Workbook1 ( 1 of 5), ThisWorkbook are prompted for closure, when Workbook1 is closed without saving. Responding to the prompt to save or not to save, forces ThisWorkbook or MasterWorkbook to break the For-Next loop. By setting Cancel = True in Workbook_BeforeClose, I can stop Thisworkbook from closure, but I will still break the For-Next loop. I have considered the method of copying data from a closed workbook, but I dun think VBA allows copying or referencing a closed workbook which is password protected at workbook and worksheet level.
Here’s my coding :
Sub UpdateMaster()
Dim MasterWB As Workbook Dim TempWB As Workbook Dim Source As String
Set MyWB = ThisWorkbook For i = 1 to 5 Set TempWB = Workbooks.Open (Filename:=WB(i), Password:=password(i) ) TempWB.Sheets("ProtectedSheet").Unprotect Password:="SheetPasswd" MyWB.Sheets(i).Range(XXX).Value = TempWB.Sheets("ProtectedSheet").Range(YYY) TempWB.Close False ‘dun want to respond toclose ThisWorkbook else it breaks for-next loop Next i
When in a ThisWorkbook macro, I want to call a sub/macro in a Module. Usually you can just do a CALL MACRO1, and it will find it. But my MACRO1 is Private as I don't the users to be able to do a Tools, Macro, Macros and see it. So I don't want to make it a Public macro. So how do I call the private sub/macro from within ThisWorkbook?
Can I proceed the sub/macro's name with the name of the module, kind of like CALL MODULE1.MACRO1? Or do I have to make it public?
way i could stop my sheet from flickering everytime i change my cell selection via keyboard/mouse. i checked and this problem is only with code below that i run in view code of my sheet...
PHP Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) Dim str As String Dim cboTemp As OLEObject Dim ws As Worksheet Set ws = ActiveSheet On Error GoTo errHandler
If Target.Count > 1 Then GoTo exitHandler If Target.Address(False, False) = "Z3" Then Call GoToMatch Exit Sub End If
A while ago I was playing with an excel balanced scorecard which used various on change events of the cells to change the colour of an object (circle). Recently I have been looking at this again and have learned that I can lose some of the .select tags to improve & reduce the code. What we have now is 20 different PI's, each with an oibject assigned, called 'PISHAPE1' through to 'PISHAPE20'. Originally, the code checked every single controll cell, which could be either red, amber, green or no data, which would be black.
What I have works but I am sure there is a more efficient method, rather than repeating the case red, amber, green etc. The first part of the code is repeated 20 times for the different objects, just changing the shape number.
Dim cel As Range For Each cel In Range("controlcell1").Cells Select Case cel.Text Case "Red" ActiveSheet.Shapes("PISHAPE1").Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 10 Case "Green" ActiveSheet.Shapes("PISHAPE1").Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 3 Case "Amber" ActiveSheet.Shapes("PISHAPE1").Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 51 Case "No Data" ActiveSheet.Shapes("PISHAPE1").Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 0 'etc. Case Else End Select Next
SO following on from above, the next code for PISHAPE2 is as follows:........................
Is it possible to make a textbox or combobox the reference of a formula in a cell? I know that you can just do this on VBA, but if possible I don't want to do that in this particular case.
I have written some code that copies certain cells from a spreadsheet constructed form back to a master spreadsheet database. The idea being to prevent users of the form from accessing the database and mucking it up. I write it the long way round and am now trying to modify it to not have to open and close the database everytime BUT whenever I change it I get errors that I think relate to the code not understanding the change of object...
' 3. send updated data to the database (all yellow boxes will update)
' set parameters for cells to copy from Dim r As Long, e4 As Long, e6 As Long, e18 As Long, e20 As Long, e22 As Long, e24 As Long, _ e26 As Long, e28 As Long, e30 As Long, e32 As Long, e34 As Long, e36 As Long, e38 As Long, _ e40 As Long, e42 As Long, e44 As Long, e46 As Long r = Range("D2") e4 = Range("B4") e6 = Range("B6") e18 = Range("B18") e20 = Range("B20") e22 = Range("B22") e24 = Range("B24")
The little blocks of code go on for 17 open/closes!
I recently wrote the following macro to drive several dimensions in a Solidworks assembly using cell values in excel. The strange thing is that I witnessed the macro work on several occassions with the exact same code, however now it always produces "Run-time error 91: Object variable or With block variable not set". I read in another forum that macros in excel can become fragmented with repeated editing, and unloading all the macros then loading everything back up again actually worked for a little while, however I would rather fix an issue with the code if there is one:
Note: In Debug mode the lines
Part.Parameter("D1@Sketch1@CORE INNER.Part").SystemValue = _ Sheets("AEM Core and No Load Loss").Range("B4").Value / 1000
are highlighted
Sub Generate_Core() Set swApp = CreateObject("SldWorks.Application") Set Part = swApp.ActiveDoc Set SelMgr = Part.SelectionManager Part.Parameter("D1@Sketch1@CORE INNER.Part").SystemValue = _ Sheets("AEM Core and No Load Loss").Range("B4").Value / 1000 Part.Parameter("D2@Sketch1@CORE INNER.Part").SystemValue = _ Sheets("AEM Core and No Load Loss").Range("B5").Value / 1000................
I need to identify the object that is triggering the current running macro. For example, i have 4 buttons say button 1 to 4 that all do almost the same thing. I have written 4 different macro for all 4 buttons but i want to simplify my code so that i can have a better leaner code by only using 1 macro for all 4 buttons. simply put is there a way to say identify which button/shape i pressed:
If "identity of button pressed" = "Button1" Then execute some code Else End If
I have a macro that checks if a username is in a particular list, and if it is, it unhides certain sheets in the workbook.
The code runs fine if I just run it as a macro or off a command button, but I am trying to execute it when the workbook opens and I keep getting a 57121, Application defined or object defined error.
The code is below;
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
DoEvents
Dim Res1 As VbMsgBoxResult Dim GovRng As Range
For Each GovRng In Sheets("Map").Range("GovernanceMembers") If GovRng.Value = Application.UserName Then Goto 111 Next GovRng
I'm getting an "Object Required" error on the following code. I can't figure out what the problem is. It copies the worksheet properly but fails to set the objWS object to the newly created sheet. I'm sure it's something simple. Set objWS = objWB.Worksheets("Product").Copy(after:=objWB.Worksheets("Product"))
ws5 and ws7 are defined and working due to other parts of the code already using them. ive copied the syntax from some of my other copy destination codes the only difference here is instead of ("A2:J10") ive got "(Cells(2,1):Cells(iRow, 10)" as the row number for this is variable, and it is calculating the correct value for iRow and iRow2. its probably something stupid im missing but i cant figure it.
I have a sample spreadsheet (uploaded to this thread) in which I have 10 command buttons named 'Video 1' to 'Video 10'. Next to these buttons is a Windows Media Player Object. I require the code that upon clicking any of the video command buttons, the relevant video is opened and shown in the windows media object within the same sheet (sheet1).
I'm sure the code for each button will be the same apart from the cmd button reference number/name and the link to the file to be played.
If we assume all the videos are called as per their buttons i.e. Video 1.wmv, Video 2.wmv ... Video 10.wmv; and the location of these files is under 'C:Films', can someone post up some code for button 'Video 1' making it clear which variables to change for linking to the different files.
I am copying a WorkSheet and I want to set it directly to an Object. I don't want to use the activeWorksheet. I does work like this with .add so my idea was it should work with copy too.
[Code] .....
It does Copy the Worksheet, but afterwards VBA gets error 424
From the current open book, I'm opening a 2nd book, then copying all worksheets from the 2nd book that meet criteria, into 1st book, (in the same order), but am getting Method 'Copy' of object '_Worksheet' failed error. What am I doing wrong? How to OVERWRITE worksheets?We'll be running the same process with new data, so also need to overwrite worksheets in 1st book.
Sub Build_Branch_File() Dim FileName As String Dim Wkb As Workbook Dim Ws As Worksheet Dim WNum As String Dim Tnum As String Dim RegionNo As Integer Dim Original_Wb As Workbook

I have written code that allows a user to copy, via a button, a certain sheet any number of times. They can choose to copy that sheet 5 times and then 10 times, etc.
When the sheet tries to be copied for the 17th time, it fails with the following message: "Run-time error '1004': Method 'Copy' of object '_Worksheet' failed"
Here is the code that I have. The second line is the line that is failing.
This always fails on the 17th copy regardless of how many different combinations of copy sheets the user tries. There are several sheets before the sheet that is to be copied and I have deleted several of those to see what happens and it still fails on the 17th copy. I also have 1GB of memory, so I don't believe that memory is an issue.
The macro below is stored within worksheet "Data Lookup". When the value in B1 changes, the code is executed but fails when it comes to the paste function. I get a "Object doesn't support this property or method".
Also, it appears the copying is not occuring correctly. It is supposed to copy from the Data3 worksheet but, in fact, its copying from the Data Lookup worksheet. Does storing this macro within a worksheet prevent the macro from moving between sheets?
Sub Worksheet_Calculate() If Range("B1").Value = Range("N1").Value Then End Sheets("Data3").Select Cells(13, 6).Copy Sheets("Data Lookup").Select Cells(23, 11).Paste End Sub
I need my program to: - find the cell containing the string "Datum/Tid" - record the column and the row of the found cell in two variables lCol and lRow
Here is my
Sub test()

'Find method of VBA Set rFoundCell = Range("A1") Set rFoundCell = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1:Z50").Find(What:="Datum/Tid", After:=rFoundCell, _ LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _ SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False)
'for anyof the two lines down I get the message "object variable OR block variable not set"
if I put my code to Word or Access or PowerPoint, is there some global version of "thisworkbook"? I mean, something like "thisapplication" or something?
1) i have office 2003 on a laptop. within powerpoint, i can create a 'microsoft excel chart 11' object. to create a link to the excel data source, do i have to go through the odbc sql setup? it works, but i don't want my powerpoint to be dependent on some excel file somewhere. what are the other options to insert/make a functional pivot chart in powerpoint with the data also within powerpoint? the data as sheet option does not result in the chart being a pivot, it's just a plain chart. it has to be a proper object, not an image paste or a chart that updates links with the excel file open.
2) i have office 2007 on my other laptop. i can not find any suitable object to choose from to make a pivot chart in powerpoint. what's the best way to go about in 2007 version?
3) am i going about this the wrong way with the objects? should i be after vba code?
In one worksheet i have created the following code, which adds date to specific column when data is entered in colum A.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range) If Target.Column = 1 Then Target.Offset(0, 10).Value = Now() End If End Sub
The problem is that when trying to delete a whole row, error message pops-up. Run-time error '1004' Application-defined or object -defined error. When click "End" actually everthing is ok, the row has been deleted, but was just wondering what is causing that error.
