View 14 RepliesIs it possible to import the palette whenever a new book is opened by clicking the "New" command on the toolbar? I'm aware of Workbook_Open Event, however this only works on a saved workbook. And I suppose I could use a template and open that every time I need a new book, though I was hoping to avoid this solution.
The best solution for me, that I can think of, would be to replace the "New" command with code that will 1)open a new book and 2)import the colour palette from an external workbook at a specified path. Some of you may have done something similar in the past in a more logical manner, if so I’m open to alternative ideas. My main priority is the result, not necessarily how it is reached.
How do I copy a colour scheme from another work book in Excel 2013? I could do it in 2010 but can not work out how to do it in 2013..
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have attached a portion of an excel file I am using at the moment. What I require is a piece of VBA code which will allow me to copy selected data based on a combo box selection. What needs to happen is this :-
If the selection in the "Index" worksheet combo box related to "Month" in cell G19 is for instance "December", I would like the macro to compare this cell value to the cell values in cells C96, C124, C152, C180, C209, C236, C263 and C290 in the "Tech Services" worksheet and where the values match.......copy the commentary (Range C126:Z147 in December's case) to the range C34:Z55.
I am trying to create a fairly simple spreadsheet with about 8 columns and about 400 rows. One of the columns features a drop-down list with about 8 or 9 different options. Dependant on which option is selected, i would like the entire row to change colour with that option.
For example:
FAILED - whole row changes red
SUCCESSFUL - row has no fill
Tested - row changes to orange
etc.
Is this possible within Excel 2003?
if it's possible to write a VBA or a code tat can merging diff workbook together. for example if i've a Folder call XXX in this folder there is
1.xls
2.xls
3.xls
4.xls
and the data all exist onli in columns. which means all the four .xls will join and be come 1 without duplication will be the best if not is ok.
Second question can i sort row by colour? for example if i've 10 rows of record and which have different colour can i write a code tat works like.
a loop to loop from the first to the last then
if .Cell.colour = Red then move to the bottom
if .Cell.colour = black then move to the top
I am looking for a vba where by the default colour of the font for new text typed in any cell of a workbook change to green or red and the default black automatic becomes secondary. The existing text in the workbook in its existing font colour must not change i.e stays in black or red.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to copy only the colour of a cell from one sheet to another.
Sheet1 has a range of cells (B6:AE32) that contain formulas extracting numbers from multiple other sheets, and has conditional formatting to fill the cells in the desired colour. I want to transfer only the colours of the cells to sheet2. I do not want there to be any text in the cells, however should the cells colour change in sheet1 I would like this to also happen in sheet2 automatically.
Is there is a formula that I can drag across the desired range of cells that only inputs the colour of the corresponding cell on another page?
I was fortunate to get help on the listbox code but need to direct the selection to a different workbook than the one that contains the listbox. I'm not good enough to see what I'm doing wrong. Played around with different combos of selecting the workbook but can't get it to work.

I have a workbook with various "in cell" validation selection boxes.
All worked well, but now the width of de dropdownbox is very big, stretching over several cells. The cell width is 70 pixels, but the dropdown box is 500 width.
I tried new validation, but no matter where I place a validation of what list I use in validation the width of the dropdown is always over 500 pixels? How to change that?
A column of cells can be 1o different shades of green according to their value (achieved by using conditional formatting.) I want to arrange that at a certain time all the cells of a part of the row of a formatted cell are the same colour.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI know of
Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
but I would like to expand this idea to detect any change in cell selection across all open workbooks.
I have a workbook that has multiple functions. One of these function is that when the user select a key word from a drop down validation list, a VB code transfer all information from that row from Column A to column W to the next available row on another tab.
VB:
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("X:X")) Is Nothing And Target.Cells.Count = 1 Then
Application.EnableEvents = False

Is there a possibility to transfer this information into another workbook. Instead of transferring the info to a tab name "Archives" to transfer in another workbook. This workbook will only have one tab called "Archives".
This will minimize the information within my Initial workbook in project.
The path in the new workbook where the information should be transfer should be in:
"C:Documents and Settings"username"My DocumentsMy Data Sources" to an excel workbook that will be named Archives.
I know that the "Archives" workbook need to open then close after the information has been inserted...
I have a workbook that has 2 worksheets (Sheet1 and Sheet2). Each sheet has 2 checkboxes and a listbox that has 6 columns. Everything works great until I save and close the workbook. When I reopen, all the selections for the listboxes are gone, however the checkboxes are checked as expected. Why aren't the listbox selections being saved? How do I get them to save? I found something similar in a previous post but it referred to a userform which I am not using.

One of the last things it does is paste values, so when the module is comeplete the pasted area is still copied to the clipboard; in other words, it is outlined in pulsating dashes.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet that sometimes needs to be edited. In order for me to copy and paste I have to "comment block" the Workbook change and the Worksheet change event macros. Make my copy and paste then I have to "Uncomment block". I do this manually. Is there a way to create a macro to do this? Or is there an easy way to do what I am trying to accomplish.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am working on a project where all columns but Column A are locked. The user selects a row of data by selecting the one unlocked cell in that row. This gives him access to modifying the contents and position of that row via a UserForm. My question is: Is there a way to copy the row of data to another sheet automatically when the user changes his selection? In this environment, a change of selection means that the user is done with one row of data and initiating work on another row. What I am trying to accomplish is a procedure invoked by the Worksheet_SelectionChange event that references the cell that has just been de-selected.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHow can I sort a 7 column selection and then paste columns 1-4, and 7 to the new location? Columns 5 and 6 should be ignored for the most part. Also, how can I obtain the first values of the column 5 and 6 selection to? I want to use them to name a file. This is how I am selecting the range.
Dim rng As Range
'Copy Selection
Set rng = Selection
rng.Copy Destination:=Range("A8")
This is how I name my files. I am getting the values from the form.
Dim strFileName As String
strFileName = .DateBox.Value & " " & .FromStoreBox.Value & " " & _
.ToStoreBox.Value & " " & .RequestedByBox.Value & " " & ".xls"
If I select a group of non-contiguous cells with control shift is there any way that I can shift the same selection over to the next column. For example, I have A4 and A8 selected. When I press shift and right arrow it doesn't work.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to copy a selection of cells and paste them into a row on another
sheet.
An example would be to copy:
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("T5,C7:T9,T13,C15:T17,T19,C21:T23")
and put it into A4:F4 on Sheet2
I know I can do it one cell at a time but I was hoping that I could speed
things up and do it all in one go as the macro will be quite long.
I have a drop-down list with 3 values:
A
B
C
The list is generated from a table, which is hidden, like so:
Column 1 - Column 2
A - Text1
B - Text2
C - Text3
Now I want to have a very simple function that will allow me to COPY the text from Column 2 based on the selection from the drop-down list. For example, when the user selects "B" from the drop-down list, I want the text "Text2" to be copied to a specific cell.
I have is two spreadsheets with different data on them, but the only connector is the user ID, so I want the cell I select with the user ID to be copied it then switches to the other spreadsheet and finds the copied selection, it then takes the columns on the selection of A to J and pastes them back in the other columns in the other spreadsheet.
My only real problem is that I can't get it to use the selection.copy in the find to select the cells I need, any help would be great, thanks.
Code ( i put spaces bewteen the other parts and find function so you could easily see it):
Sub Macro1()
Selection.Copy
Windows("EMERA-employees-asof-06-Mar-2007.xls").Activate
Cells.Find(What:="(I want this to be selection.copy)", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt _
:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
ActiveCell.Columns("A:J").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Selection.Copy
Windows("SMSReportResults.xls").Activate
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 6).Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End Sub
I have autofiltered a selection of data then issued the copy command in the code below so as to copy the visible area. In attempting to paste the data in the first blank row the program fails on the last code statement, "ActiveSheet.Paste".
The error is 1004.
An alternative suggested in the error message is to select an area the same shape and size as that being copied to paste into. Given that the copied data will change on each run how might I do this, and is this a valid alternative?
Selection.AutoFilter
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=7, Criteria1:="=TC", Operator:=xlAnd
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:=">=7330", Operator:=xlAnd
Selection.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Select
Selection.Copy
Range("A" & LR + 1).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
NB. most of the code has been generated by the Macro recorder.
I have a spreadsheet named PRODUCTS and in row A there are a bunch of product codes. I would like for the user to be able to use the CTRL and mouse to select all the products that they want and then once they push that button I would like it to paste the user selected cells into a sheet called Quote starting at A7.

Using this code I get the colour code of the current tab
Code:
x = ActiveSheet.Tab.ColorIndex
But when I use this value in a procedure like this:

ActiveSheet.Tab.ColorIndex = x
The tab is a different colour!
Copy paste macro that I'm using to transfer information from Sheet1 to sheet 3. The macro must:
On the click of a command button copy information from A5 to M5 and A6 to M6 and paste it to the next 2 free rows on sheet3 between columns A and M.
After the copy/paste the macro must clear the information from the input sheet - A5:M5 and A6:M6 - but retain the formatting.
