Create Macro To Chart Data With Location As Object In Active Sheet


I have been trying to create a macro in excel to chart a selection of data and to output the chart on the active sheet where the data was taken (as opposed to a named sheet). So basically, I have about 300 worksheets with data, and I would like to have a button on each page that automatically charts that data when clicked, and outputs the chart to the page where the macro was clicked. However, I have not been able to figure out a relative reference that will allow me to make the LocationasObject reference simply the ActiveSheet as opposed to a specifically named sheet. See my code below, which references an output to a worksheet called "Charts". Right now, all of my charts are outputting to the sheet called "Charts", as opposed to the active sheet.

Sub ConsDiscChart()
ActiveCell.Offset(29, 11).Range("A1").Select
Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Range("A1:B1").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Range("A1:C24").Select
Charts.Add
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlLineMarkers
ActiveChart.Location Where:=xlLocationAsObject, Name:="Charts"
With ActiveChart
.HasTitle = False
.Axes(xlCategory, xlPrimary).HasTitle = False
.Axes(xlValue, xlPrimary).HasTitle = False
End With
End Sub

Macro Pull Data From Each Sheet And Create A Summary Sheet
I need to create a macro that will scan a spreadsheet for the number of sheets and then pull data from the same places on each sheet in order to create a summary sheet. Let me try to explain a little better.

The spreadsheet I'm working with has a separate sheet for each new deal our company makes. Each of these sheets is in the same format - we use a template and fill in the data based on that whenever a new deal emerges. The sheets contain basic info about the deal in the first few rows and columns, then some narratives with dates describing the progress of the deal, and then a list of issues and whether or not they have been resolved. The problem is, each of these sheets contains too much info for a quick, high-level overview with the bosses so they've asked me to create something that will pull the basic info, the most recent narrative, and any unresolved issues from each sheet. This way, each time there's an overview scheduled with the bosses, the macro can be run and it will create a new sheet with data from each sheet in the workbook.

Reference Chart By Name That Is Not On Active Sheet
I am trying to select cells, tables and charts by just knowing their name. Thus if possible I would like to only refer to a chart by its name i.e. not know what worksheet they are on. This seems to work for named ranges of cells/tables, but not charts (I can't get my named charts to appear in the "Define Name" dialog).

I found this code that loops through charts on the activesheet and shows the names. However, I would much prefer not to have to specify the sheet or to loop through all the sheets trying to locate the one with the named chart.

Public Sub GetEmbeddedCharts()
Dim myChart As ChartObject
Dim myCharts As ChartObjects
Set myCharts = ActiveSheet.ChartObjects
For Each myChart In myCharts
Debug.Print myChart.Chart.Name
Next
End Sub

Rename Embedded Active Chart Sheet Name
For example, a cell on the screen is blank. When the page is printed, the "blank cell" has printed text.

I checked "format cells" and it shows word wrap, merge cells, and left to right.

I was told to "un-merge" the cells. I did that and I still have the problem.

The color on all the cells is OK at a blue shade. When I look at print preview the cells are blank, but when the sheet is printed, the text shows.

Also, it looks like there are 2-3 cells inside the main cell.

I hope I have explained this properly, it is not easy to use the correct language to describe since I am not very good at using Excel.

Pivot Chart Object: Find Any Suitable Object To Choose From To Make A Pivot Chart In Powerpoint
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?

Create Copy Of Active Sheet & Convert Original To Values Only
I need to copy the Selected Sheet (Sheet name will be different each month) on a spreadsheet and paste the copy to the left of the selected Sheet. Then I need to copy and paste values the entire sheet of the sheet that the copy was made from (the one on the right). I am very new to macros, and I tried recording and manually editing the macro with no success. The number of sheets will be different always as I will be adding this to different workbooks and also because new sheets may be added to any workbook at any time. I attached my code that I came up with, as I am not familiar with code enought to "[code]" my code.

Macro: Create Directory Based On Active Workbook And Save To It
Read “My Documents” Path And Use Result

Problem:

Note:

Typical user OS will be Windows XP Pro / Win 2K
Excel version : 97 / 2002 / 2003

1. Corporate network security settings will only allow directory/subdirectory creation in the “My Documents” section of customers individual computers.

2. Per customer request, VBA application needs to save extracted files for future use.

3. I can specify an initial “My Documents” subdirectory be made and the VBA application file be loaded/copied into that location – i.e. – “My DocumentsCat”.

4. When VBA application is opened from that specified directory, (first time), the application needs to make an additional subdirectory tree to save future files. I can read the opened from location via VBA with the following:

Dim filepath As String
filepath = ThisWorkbook.Path
As an example – this code would produce a string definition of “filepath” – such as the following:............................

Return Active Cell's Location/row

Select A Range Based On Active Cell Location?
I'm trying to select a range of cells whereby the range is dependent on the currently active cell. I know you can use the "Activesheet.Range("A1:D2").select" method to select a range where the cells are always the same, but I'm after a dynamic selection where the values can be programmatically altered depending on some other result.

For example, let's say that I make a certain cell active (based on the result of some other formula), and I want to select the range of cells in the adjacent column that is X rows deep. Putting this into context, imagine the resultant active cell is B2, I then want to select the range C2:C10, but if the active cell is E10, the range selected would be F10:F18 (if active cell is X, then range would be Y:Z).

The Offset function would allow me to position the cell based on the current active one, but it doesn't let me select a range. The Range function only lets you choose either hard coded or index cells, e.g. "Range(cells(y,z), cells(y,z)).select", but this is still no good because I'd need to know the index value of the active cell (can this be done?).

Macro To Update Links In Active Sheet Only
I have a workbook which has links to another excel workbook (source). This workbook has many sheets -all exact copy- with different names. I changed startup prompt (edit->links) to "dont display the alert and dont update automatic links". Then I recorded a macro for updating links (from source) and assigned this macro to a button. What I want to do is when I click this update button I want links to be updated only on the active sheet that Im on. My problem is, when I press this button, it updates all links including other sheets (basically whole workbook).

My current macro is (I dont know coding but I tried changing ActiveWorkbook to ActiveSheet but it didnt work):

Sub update()
ActiveWorkbook.UpdateLink Name:= _
"C:Documents and SettingsAlperDesktopExcelsource.xls", Type _

Advanced Filter Active Sheet Macro Code

So, if an item is selected from the combo-box, both the datasets should get filtered according to same criteria. how i can combine the 2 IF LOOPS mentioned in the code?

Create New Sheet For Each Row Of Another Sheet Auto Populate Data.
i have a sheet called 'sample database'. it consists of 56 columns, each with a specific title in row 1. i.e. name, surname, mobile_number, and so on.
from row 2 onwards the data has been populated for roughly 200 rows.

i have another 'Capture Sheet' which has the same titles as 'Sample database' except it's in a different format. its a printable form that is given to new employees when they start. once they have completed it it gets captured into the 'Sample Database' sheet.

my wifes boss now wants 1 new sheet for each row in the 'sample database' sheet based on the format/layout of the 'capture form'.
how can i get the 'capture form' to auto populate the data from the 'sample database' sheet and create a new sheet for each row?

Centering The Active Object
I have a basic data table with KPI labels down one side and dates across the top. Using this data table as the series source, I create a number of charts below it with serialised names eg Chart0, Chart1, Chart2, etc. I am attempting to enable the KPI labels so that when a user clicks it, the spreadsheet will navigate to the appropriate chart. I place the name value for the chart object in the cell immediataly to the left of each KPI label (and hide it). This way I know which chart object below is related to which KPI label above. That part works.
I have a Worksheet_SelectionChange() event procedure attached to the charting worksheet. When a user clicks into one of the KPI labels, the event procedure fires and the appropriate chart is activated. The code is:

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B5:B19")) Is Nothing Then
On Error Resume Next
chtObjName = Range(Target.Address).Offset(0, -1).Range("A1").Value
If Left(chtObjName, 5) = "Chart" Then
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(chtObjName).Select
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
MsgBox "No such chart exists.", vbCritical, _
"Chart Not Found"

Indirect: Reflect The Data In The Active Sheet Or Give Me A #VALUE Error
I am running the formula =VALUE(RIGHT(CELL("filename"),15)) to read the tab name in a workbook with 90 sheets. When a new account is opened, the operator inserts a new sheet from a template (which contains the above formula), and labels the tab to the account number. The formula then 'reads' in the account number and performs look-ups based on it.

The problem is that the sheets are only working when the sheet is active. They all seem to reflect the data in the active sheet or give me a #VALUE error. Where am I going wrong? How do I fix the problem?

Macro To Create New Sheet
I want to create a Macro that will create a new worksheet when the user so desires using a message box.

The workbook contains 4 tabs, for example, named as follows: (1) template (2) 250 (3) 825 and (4) 975. I want the marco to work as follows:

1- Macro will ask user "please type store number"
2- Macro will then make of copy of "template" and create the new sheet
3- if user types in "860", I want to the macro to name the new sheet "860" and place the new worksheet between sheets 825 and 975.

Also - this may be asking too much but is it also possible to also prevent user from entering non-valid numbers? The valid numbers are 001 - 999. ie; if user enters "1500", return message "invalid entry".

Create A New Table That Displays The Information By Location Instead Of Code
I have a table of information with location codes as the column headers. Each location has from 1 to 6 codes associated with it.

I want to create a new table that displays the information by location instead of code, i.e. adding all of the codes for a location into one column for that location.

I'm hoping the example will make this clearer.

On the main page, I am trying to add in the wa column all of the columns in the raw page that have a code associated with wa as the header.

To make this more complex, I can't use vba on this one.

the only thing I've got so far is a very long, very complex formula that adds together numbers generated from index/matching each entry in the second table.

something like this.

(edit changing 1:1 to $1:$1)

=IF(VLOOKUP(B$1,lookup1,2,FALSE)=0,0,INDEX(sample.xls!main_table,ROW(),MATCH(VLOOKUP(B$1,lookup1,2,FALSE),raw!$1:$1,0)))+IF(VLOOKUP(B$1,lookup1,3,FALSE)=0,0,INDEX(sample.xls!main_table,ROW(),MATCH(VLOOKUP(B$1,lookup1,3,FALSE),raw!$1:$1,0)))+IF(VLOOKUP(B$1,lookup1,4,FALSE)=0,0,INDEX(sample.xls!main_table,ROW(),MATCH(VLOOKUP(B$1,lookup1,4,FALSE),raw!$1:$1,0)))+IF(VLOOKUP(B$1,lookup1,5,FALSE)=0,0,INDEX(sample.xls!main_table,ROW(),MATCH(VLOOKUP(B$1,lookup1,5,FALSE),raw!$1:$1,0)))+IF(VLOOKUP(B$1,lookup1,6,FALSE)=0,0,INDEX(sample.xls!main_table,ROW(),MATCH(VLOOKUP(B$1,lookup1,6,FALSE),raw!$1:$1,0)))


It works, but its horribly ugly, and if the number of locations goes higher (we could be looking at going to ten location codes for one of our locations) then I'll actually exeed the 1000 characters per formula limit!

Create Add New Record Macro In A Sheet
I have a table where I have dropdown menu for selecting data and a vlookup for filling other fields.However, I would like to create totals at the bottom of the sheet.

No. Name Weight Amount Total Weight Unit Price Total Price
1. Product 30 2 60 100 200
then I will not have no. 2 , but add new record button that will create a new row and will copy the dropdown menu and the Vlookup function so the format will be the same for product no.2 as it is for the product no.1 ... thus I will not have any unfilled rows in the table and after the last row there will be a totals row that will sum up the whole table... How to do that "add new record button" so that in the table will show up only those rows, that are actually filled with data?

Check Before If Chart Object Exist
I wrote a macro that selects 3 charts existing in a sheet and sets the axes to auto scale option. The charts are labeled Chart 2, Chart 6 and Chart 7 by default, the macro selects each of then and then sets the auto scale option.

Is it possible to use 'If then' statement to check if the chart object exists ? In case they do exist then macro works on them but if not then it goes to the next statement.

Or is there any other way to check if objects exists or not, because sometimes the macro is used for old files (template) and the chart objects there have different numbers and not 2, 6 and 7. So to use macro for both templates( new and old) its better to check first. This way the macro becomes more flexible.

The object comes as a ChartSpace on the userform. I have found a reference (using the watch window) to the current filter selection in ChartSpacex.InternatPivotTable.ActiveView.Fieldsets(0).Fields(0)....

Copy Chart To New Sheet & Have Charts Source Data Reference It
Sheet1 contains a chart using a dynamic name in Source Data: Values. The dynamic name data is controlled by another cell. When I copy the sheet - i.e. Sheet1 (2) - and change the control cell, the Source Data: Values in the copied sheet still refers to the original Sheet1.

Create New Sheet For Each Group & Copy Needed Data To Each
I have just inherited an Excel spreadhseet that displays job titles and what types of documents each one should be trained on. What I am trying to achieve is a formula, or something to that sort, that will look at each job individually and tell me only those documents that they need to be trained on and list it on a seperate sheet.

If you look at the attached document you will see that the first 2 columns contain a document number and description. Across the top you see each of our job descriptions. In the middle you see an X that indicates that person should be trained on that document.

So once more, I would like to take each Job Description (seperately) and list only the documents that have an "x" in their column on another sheet. I already have the sheets created, I just need to know if there is some kind of formula or macro that can do this for me.

Create Object, Work With Workbook
I'm trying to open a file and perform various tasks. This is the structure:

Dim xlApp As Object
Dim xlWb As Object

Set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
xlApp.Visible = True
Set xlWb = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(BackupFile) ' backupfile evaluates to c: esting est.xls
xlWb.Worksheets(1).Activate

Debug.Print xlWb.Worksheets.Count
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In xlWb.Worksheets
Debug.Print ws.Name
ws.Activate
Next ws
I think I'm totally missing something. The above works, except for the loop. None of the names show up in my immediate window, and none of the worksheets are activated. xlWB evaluates to nothing, which is where the problem has to be...but why would my first .Activate and Debug.Print lines work? Also, If I declare xlWb as Workbook then absolutely nothing works after the file is opened.

Basically what I want to do is open the file, do a bunch of a stuff with it, then save and close it. I have this all working without creating another object, but the opening of the file is still visible to the user. Seems like turning off ScreenUpdating doesn't truly work.

Create Hyperlink In Active Cell
I'm running Excel 2003 and I'm looking for assistance with programmatically creating hyperlinks. I have to update a Shared Workbook on a weekly basis. The cells in column D contain a catalog id and I need to create a hyperlink that includes this id in the url.

What I want to do is insert a new row, enter the catalog id and then create a hyperlink that contains the id. Additionally, the text to display has to be the 8 digit id. Here is an example of the hyperlink.

Use Active Cell To Create Hyperlink
I am trying to use an active cell (i.e. "Sheet2!E7") which always changes, to create a hyperlink on a different sheet to that particular cell. What is happening is I have a master list of current open POs. On a separate sheet I have the PO listed in greater detail. I want the PO number on my master list to have a hyperlink that brings you to my detailed PO on another sheet. Simply, I need a way to turn my active cell into text (not the contents, but the cell itself).
