How do I get one sheet to update from the other when I open both sheets. Somethign like an auto update. If I had two tabs on the same spreadsheet I would just use = but I can't use that with two different sheets.
View 3 RepliesI have 3 macros, 2 of them puts formulas in 2 separate cells and the other to turn off file save, file save as and the Save button. Everything was working fine until I password protected the project, now the macros quit loading. I can still run them manually and they work fine, they just don't run when the spreadsheet is loaded. (What I wanted to do was prevent users from seeing the formulas by saving the spreadsheet after the formula was put in the cell and also by looking at the macro). I've unpassword protected the project and took out the macro to prevent the Saves. What do I need to look at to get the macros to run when the spreadsheet is loaded?

Okay, I have data for 400 employees in one spreadsheet. I am trying to move 4 fields of data to a second spreadsheet. But I have 11 rows for each employee in the 2nd spreadsheet.
How do I copy my formula so that it is the same for the first 11 rows and then moves down a row for the 12 row?
ie)
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A1
=A2
etc
From a destination spreadsheet, I need to be able to programmatically prompt the user for the name of a source spreadsheet (e.g., using GetOpenFilename), open the selected file, copy predefined data (i.e., identified with a named range), return to the destination spreadsheet and paste the data in a predefined location.
Does anyone have any code samples to accomplish this task? If so, can it be run with ScreenUpdating set to false so that the user does not see all of the moving around the two spreadsheets.
When I copy the dates from this spreadsheet into a new one, in the new spreadsheet the copied dates are different. Looks crazy. Why does this happen?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI am trying to copy a set of data (lets say workbook 1) into a new workbook(workbook 2). Both files are saved in the same directory.
Workbook 1 will be continually updated with new row additions and some changes in text in the rows. I want to copy these new changes (from workbook 1) without having to copy and paste the new additions into workbook 2, as it is wasting a lot of my time.
Is there a trick in excel to automatically do this?
I'm trying to write a macro to use as an auto-update feature for a spreadsheet.
I currently use Data validation on an input cell to allow the user to select from a list of product types.
I'd like the update to affect this list, so new product types are always available to the user.
However, the list of product types is in another spreadsheet and contains numerous repetitions.
I've managed to get the following code together based on what I've used before and what I've found searching so far, but it seems to have a bug in it as it wont always work. I also need the original copying of the list to be done to either the new spreadsheet of a different page in the original spreadsheet, but every time I try this it causes an object error.

Im using the below formula to paste information into a new spreadsheet based on the if then statement. However, as i paste the formula down the sheet, it doesnt reference all the cells. The formula stays on the cells it referenced initially. How can I make the formula reference all the cells as i drag it down?

We created a database for our employees who have security items and other things we need to keep track. We created a spreadsheet where data was entered on Sheet2 (Entry Form) and then by clicking various buttons would be thrown over to Sheet1 (MasterList) and put in alphabetical order. Then last week he said lets change it to a User form where i can put all the data, be able to tab through my text boxes and make the whole process of entering information faster and more efficient.. but now hes gone and I'm left with his macros and all this stuff i don't really understand! I have been doing pretty well on my own but im stuck "Search Employee" Here is what i have...
VB:
Private Sub SearchEmployeeButton_Click()
LastName.Value = Range("A500").Value
FirstName.Value = Range("B500").Value

use code tags around code. Posting code without them makes your code hard to read and difficult to be copied for testing. Highlight your code and click the # at the top of your post window.
Working in Windows 8 excel. I am copying data from a website and entering that data onto a spread sheet. There are certain websites where the data does not transfer on the first try. It sometimes takes up to trying 3 times before the data will download onto the spread sheet. Why is that? And is there anything I can do to get it to transfer on the first try?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet with two tabs (Customer Survey Data) and (Customer Rollup). The data starts on line 5 (headers in rows 1 thru 4) and is found in columns B thru J. In column B I have dates with no blanks. In column C I have customer names - no blanks. In column J is are the customer comments - not all customers made a comment so there are blanks.
I created a macro that autofilters the data to show only those entries within a specific date range (dictated by dates found in L1 and L2 - begin and end dates respectively) by column B (no problem with this). The macro also auto removes all rows where there are no comments (column J = no blanks). This leaves me with only those surveys recieved within a specied date range that have comments.
Here is my problem: the Customer Rollup sheet is the finalized report. I need to copy only the customer names and their comments into the finalized report. The following is the macro I put in which only half works and I have no idea why. It copies the names fine...but then only copies the first comment.
Oh yea...I don't want to copy the WHOLE column...only from the first visible row down to the last. Btw...I put a lot of notes for myself...I capitalized the notes where I think the problem is...Any suggestions on how to fix it or why it just doesnt seem to work like it should?
I must say I have learned quite a lot from this forum. So, a vey big Thank You to the folks who are managing this forum and those who are contributing possible solutions. I have a question about copying data from a spreadsheet to a List Box in a User Form (Pls see attached). First, I select the Account from the drop-down cell in the Main sheet. Then I click on the CommandButton and a UserForm will pop out with a List Box that draws relevant data from the Remarks sheet according to the Account that I have selected. The data in the List Box must be in this format : "Date1 : Remark1"; next line "Date2 : Remark2; line 3 "Date3 : Remark3"........until the last available entry.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need the VBA scripts for the following: 1) I have created a UserForm in Excel with a text box entry field. In this I would like the user to enter a date range (i.e Dec.11 - Jan.12) and for this data entry to be displayed in various cells accross different sheets (within the same workbook).
2) Once the date range has been entered, Okayed and transfered I would then like the text box in the Userform to be cleared.
Right now I have multiple sheets each with a single (different) image floating on top of the cells as all images do in excel.
What I would like to achieve is when a certain sheet is activated, the code finds the image on that sheet and then copies it to the clipboard. What would be a way to go about this?
I have done some research trying to understand how images are referenced in excel.
I have a cashflow spread sheet on which there are three properties that are currently being renovated and are being rented out. I would like to see ongoing costs for each individual property on the main spread sheet. I can filter and sort by the properties and autosum to get the individual costings of properties, but I would like to be able to see the costings of each property on the main spread sheet once I have stopped filtering.

I have macro enabled workbooks that the contract number increases by one everytime they are opened. Is there a way to make it auto save though when its opened. Right now I have to click save as soon as I open it. If I do not do this when I open it, when I open it again the contract number will stay the same as it was, because I save it at the end after I put all customer info in.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have attached a document paralleling a document I am working on. The dollar amount in each spreadsheet represent sales. I have entered in values into the candy, soda, and chips spreadsheet. I have also linked values for candy into the total spreadsheet. My question is can I somehow type something or drag the formula down to populate the other cells in the total spreadsheet?
The idea I am thinking but which I don't know how to implement is to list all the items (as in column G) and list all of the relevant cells (e.g. B1 in the Candy spreadsheet) as in columns H and I (Note that all items will have the same cells but the cells will have different values...e.g. all three items have a cell B1 and B2 in their spreadsheet but these cells contain different values). I then try and fail to create a formula in cell B3 of the Total spreadsheet. I am trying to create a formula of the following nature:
='(Spreadsheet Name From Column G)'!(Cell Name From Columns H and I)
The Second half of the formula doesn't really concern me (i.e. the cell name from column H and I). However I am perplexed as to how to achieve the goal in the first parentheses above.
I have two spreadsheets, one gives me the beginning and end of civil twilight as a measure of day vs. night. The spreadsheet has Date/Time in the first column, and the value 45 in the 2nd column when it is night. The second spreadsheet has also 2 columns with date/time and body temperatures of a squirrel. I want to get basic statistics (mean and standard deviation) of the squirrel's nocturnal body temperature, that is for times when it is night (value 45). The tricky part is that Date/Time of both spreadsheets are different. The procedure has to recognize that the date/time of body temperature lies between the beginning and end of the value 45 blocks of the first spreadsheet.

I have a spreadsheet that I have a lot of macros that are attached to a customized toolbar saved in the same spreadsheet. I saved this is a read-only file. When I open as read-only and run my macros (testing), I save it as another file. When I then open the "template" to do the same thing, the toolbar/buttons now reference the file I previously saved as something else. Help please? Is there a macro that would delete all macros before saving the file as something else?
