Is there a way of counting mouse clicks on an active XL cell and displaying the real time count in the cell, in essence giving a click count? Or in the case of a handheld, tapping an active cell and having the value incrementally increase with each tap...

I click on a cell, do a right mouse click and would like to be able to select a command that puts the current date and/or time in the selected cell.
My Worksheet uses Hyperlinks to open files. I want to have another cell in this Worksheet incremently report the number of times that the Hyperlink is used to open a file, like a Web Style "Hit" Counter.

The code it self works fantastic but the problem i have is if i manually unlock the sheet every time i click any where in sheet it locks it again.

I have a sheet that pulls data from an external source. I want it so that when a person clicks on a cell or a range of cells, it automatically locks and hides the formula. I don't want to lock it by using the conventional method because protecting it will cause the external data not to be able to populate the cells. So my thinking is that when the data is imported, and the user clicks on a cell, it will automatically lock and hide.
I need columns
A C E:BB to be locked and hidden as soon as someone clicks it. Is this possible?
I read somewhere that I may be able to do some type of "Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange" to achieve this.
is there any way a macro can be automatically run when a user clicks unto a cell?

You insert a yes or no click buttons into your excel document. There are some many yes button's clicked and so many no buttons clicked. Can you get excel to determine how many yes and no buttons are clicked and give a percentage?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have 1 button that opens 1 workbook within a sheet. How can I give a person that clicks 1 button a choice between 3 macros? So I have 3 macros in a sheet that open different workbooks. The problem is I don't have room to make 3 buttons... so I was thinking if there is a way to press 1 button and get 3 options, that would be cool! Also, I don't think someone would identify the document by the name of the macro because I have a foul way of naming my mac's. Click one button and see a message like "Would you like to open Button1 Button2 Button3" something like this!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook with a bunch of VB code in it.
I have this workbook and any other workbook open, but this workbook is not active. I click the X to shut down Excel. It calls the Workbook_BeforeClose event, then asks if I want to save my work (as it should). I select "Save All" and the shut down is aborted.
It never makes it to the Workbook_BeforeSave event.
I then click the X a second time, and I'm not prompted to save but the shut down proceeds with saving all and then closing Excel.
==> Why does it require a second click of the X?
If this workbook is active, all works fine.
I've commented out all event code. Didn't help.
I've deleted my commandbar menu before attempting to close.
The order in which the workbooks were opened doesn't matter.
What might I be doing in VB to cause this behavior?
Does anyone know if/ how i might unlock hyperlinks on my protected spreadsheet without having to unlock the cells they are placed in?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've a sheet that presents the profitability of sales locations in a geographic layout (similar to Tables in a restaurant), each sales location is a cell, with roughly 1,600 locations presented. Each location is colour coded based on performance / measure, in a basic thermographic way [e.g. dark blue for very poor, solid red for high performance] with users being able to change metrics and re-colour cells accordingly.
The sheet is already information rich, but I'm wanting to detect the cell address directly under the pointer and populate a text box or other cell based on the value in the cell directly below the mouse pointer.
My question is; Is there a simple way of detecting the mouse position on the XL Grid? nb. Want to avoid having to activate cell beneath pointer.

is there a way to launch a macro when your mouse is over a specific cell or a specific range of cells ? The idea behind is to update a chart based on the cell value, in case a name, with its associated values
On my worksheet, i want to execute a macro to calculate and display some informations when the mouse is positioned over certains cells. I look around but did not found how to do it.
I want the information to be displayed above that cell and disapeared when mouse pointer moved away.
I want to select a function from a right mouse click that will place the current date in the selected cell.
Example:
1) Click on a cell
2) Perform a right mouse click
3) select the date function
4) the current date appears in selected cell
could this be set up so that the date function in the right mouse click only appears when specified cells are selected? Is this doable?
Is there a way to have excel track where my mouse is hovering(say if I have it hovering over cell A4) and have it return the value of A4 in a different cell (e.g B7)?
This would occur in real time - that is, as my mouse moved over the spreadsheet, B7 would update in real time.
Note I would also accept someone selecting the cell - hovering (no select) would be ideal but selecting is OK.
I was just wondering if it was possible to get a collapsible menu/dialog box
for excel when a user clicks on the cell of interest. I don't want to use
the collapsible list function as I would rather the user be able to click on
the cell of interest and then have that cell produce maybe another
window/dialog box which will show the user what I have put in there - maybe a
chart or table or just a set of data - and perhaps allow them to cut and
paste the data as well? However, most importantly, I just want a
dialog/window box to appear rather than having to group and use the
collapsible list function. I've attached an image of what I have in mind.
I was wondering if there is a way I can get the row and column to highlight as the mouse hovers over a cell?? We keep a spreadsheet with information for over 300 employees. For example if I hover over cell J23, I would like Column J and Row 23 to highlight.

I created 5 charts and instead of having them spread everywhere in the worksheet, I would like them to be "reduced" to some kind of a link contained in a cell (at the botom of the data of each chart). Then, I would like the chart to appear only if I put the mouse on this cell.

In excel 2007, I have an embedded image on a sheet which I want to make it hidden by default. When someone hovers over a particular cell say cell B3, then image should be displayed below this cell (sort of hyperlinking) and when the cursor or activell cell is not in B3 it should be hidden again. What steps/technique/VBA code will make it happen ?

I've look the properties of this to objects and can figure it out.
I'm a newbie to these forums, but I had a question that I couldn't find an answer to in the search feature. So, I joined and here I go....
I have a whole lotta data (nearly 600 "pages" of data) that I pasted into Excel. Unfortunately, it's formatted poorly and I'd like to make it nice and purty.
What I started to do was to create a 2nd sheet and then do an "=" and then click the spot with the 'group name' and then another "=" underneath it and then clicked the spot with the 'premium' info, etc.
After a couple of these, I figured that I could simply make a formula to help me out with it. Please see the attached screen captures for some detail on my issue.
Can someone help me create a formula or a way to count a certain cell and then 52 cells underneath it and display it?
In any case, what I have is a set of cells that may or may not be filled, and which frequently get changed around. As I need the data counted in a specific way for "shenanigans", I am... getting quite tired with having to manually adjust this whenever my co-workers decide to adjust something (and I have been told that throwing bricks at them until they stop is not a valid option).
Basically, I want to count the cells in a way so that for every time a cell is filled, a counter repeats the previous number before continuing the sequence.

My issue is that I have no idea how to get this to count right. I know the theory of how I want this to work, but I just have no idea how to get it to function. The logic of how I want it to count is below, but, again, I just have no idea how to go about getting it to work right without manually typing in the counter, and without ending up with the code working wrongly when there's two filled cells at the top.
