I'm wondering if there's a way to automatically create a worksheet based on a new day. I have a workbook with a worksheet for each day that I'm working on a job. I have to copy the last day's worksheet and rename it to the next day, for example, "Day 1" becomes "Day 2". What I"m wanting to accomplish is to have a new worksheet automatically created at 12am each day that I'm on the job, and the worksheet name increment for the next day. I guess it would need to constantly monitor the computer clock for 12am.
Also, some of the functions are dependant on the previous day's values, so they would have to update as well. I'm assuming I'd need some VBA code to do this, and I'm ok with visual basic. Is there a way to do this that isn't too complicated?
I am trying to creat a macro that loops all the named ranges in a worksheet named "Labels", and copy the data to a new worksheet for each named range it finds in the same workbook and name each worksheet with the named range name.
This macro below is meant to search a sheet for a user selected value, select the entire row and copy it into a new sheet that has been created under the name of the user selected value. It will create said sheet, but isnt finding the value and/or copying the active cell row. Im not getting any errors so it has no issue with the coding itself, it just doesnt work, have i missed something obvious again?
I'm trying to make my worksheet generate a bunch of named ranges whenever it is activated. However, I'm getting a "Not a valid name" error on the line in red. The value of r is a string, so I really don't see what the issue is. Another time, I got a object defined error, but I think I've declared everyhing too. That line is very similar to the line above, and tends to work once (the first time around the loop). After that, I get the errors I mentioned.
why I'm getting an error with this code. I have a data set that becomes larger each time I run the report, so by selecting all the cells and naming the range, I don't have to hard-code the cells involved. Then, I want to be able to create a table from that named range. The error comes on the last line of code.
My vb code currently creates a new sheet via "Sheets.add". This new sheet has the default name of "sheet1" which I rename as "tempSheet". I then populate tempSheet with data, save as a CVS file and then I remove tempSheet.
If I stay in my workbook and try to execute the code again, the default name of the sheet it now creates is "sheet2" and not "sheet1" - this is a problem becuase my code is trying to rename "sheet1" "tempSheet" and of course it cant.
I would like to create a named range in VBA for column A, which is a sum of B and C. The problem is that A can have 0 as a value. What I would really like to do is define the named range in column A as A2 to the last column with a value in column B(B10) which would make the named range in column a A2:A10.
I keep losing my named ranges when attempting to reopen a particular file I am working on. I get the "excel found unreadable content....." error message and then when it corrects, the range names are all gone. is it efficient to create the named ranges at open? Otherwise how should it be done so that my workbook will definitely have these names each time its used?
Is there any way in Excel to create single-cell named ranges from a combination of the labels in the rows and column of a spreadsheet.
Here is an example:
CompanyA CompanyB CompanyC CompanyD
Sales 100 200
[code]....
I would like the first cell (containing the 100) to have a defined name of (something like) "SalesCompanyA", and the second cell to be "SalesCompanyB". And so on - e.g. the cell with 300 in it should be "CostCompanyA".
I can do it manually, but I have a huge spreadsheet & was hoping it could be automated. Just to be clear, it needs to be a single cell range. I know you can create a range from a selection - but this seems to create ranges of the entire row and/or column.
I have a workbook which needs a new sheet for each day of the month.I normally just create and re-name each sheet with the date...is there a simpler way where i can create the new sheet with a date for each month instead of doing indiviually?
I have a named range within a sheet. It was pulled across when i performed a move/copy - create copy from another workbook. The name contains characters that cannot be displayed or recognised and so they are displayed as square symbols. This causes me an issue as i cannot delete the name. Even if i paste the list names, i cannot copy/paste the name as the characters are not recognised. I also tried using a macro to delete all names, which did delete all names, with the exception of this one. The VB code used was :
I have attached a workbook that creates new folders based on text in a cell. As you can see when the button is pressed it runs the macro which when it is done calls the next & so on. What I would like to know is there a way of acheiving the same results with a single macro. Eg column A contains 4 cells with text. The macro when run will check for cell content then create folder based on that text macro will stop when next cell is empty.
I have a worksheet where a number of the cells have been assigned names. I want to copy these cell names & create a list on another part of the worksheet. Does anyone have some code I could use to achieve this?
The dynamic ranges are getting entered but the problem is that the range "dms" overshoots by six cells into blank cells at the bottom of the table, and the rest of the ranges overshoot by ten cells into blank cell area. I have deleted, cleared and destroyed everything around the table and re-sized the active area to no avail.
I'm now trying to get my chart to use that range. I read at [URL] .... that I need to make sure my series reference is a fully qualified reference. So I've entered that series reference using the name of the workbook followed by the range name (=2012-PIRS.xlsx!SAM_CLAR2DEL). I have two copies of my workbook (one as xlsm with VBA project, and one with xlsx without VBA) and I can't get Excel to accept the series value in either workbook.

I need a macro that can set up some named ranges using the text in the header row and the sheet name. The header row will always be in row one, but the number of columns will be dynamic. The amount of rows in the range will need to be dynamic also. To clarify, every used cell stating in row 2 in a column will be the named range with the sheetname+text in row one of the column the actual name.
I am looking for a solution to dynamically create named ranges according to the contents of cells in a particular column. The following code works for 1 word names, but in many cases the title cell contains numerous words separated by spaces. Is there a way I can adapt this code so that it will name the ranges with the spaces removed? For example, where cell C2 contains the narrative 'Sales Ledger Control', I would want the range name 'SalesLedgerControl'.
Range("R2:Z2").Name = Range("C2")
The named ranges are referred to in numerous other worksheets, where selecting a particular narrative from a listbox creates a dependant drop-down in the adjacent cell (eg if Sales Ledger Control is selected, the dependant list contains names of customers). FYI, the data validation in the other worksheets ignores the spaces in the range names, ie: =INDIRECT(SUBSTITUTE(G2," ",""))
It would not take me long to name the ranges manually, but a macro is preferable because the narratives in the title cells will often change and the range names will obvioulsy also therefore change.
I would like a dynamic range to be multiplied with 2. The Range is always start in cell H14 to P?
I have multi checkbox in column F,
So here is an eksampel: If checkbox in F4 is true then Range H4:P4, should by multiplied with 2 else if the chekbox is FALSE, then only multiply with 1.
I want to entry data in the Range H14:P? by this code
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) 'Do nothing if more than one cell is changed or content deleted If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or IsEmpty(Target) Then Exit Sub
I have two sheets. Sheet A has a list of folders. This list is updates dynamically every time the sheet is opened. I have another sheet (sheet B) which has a list of all the files in the sub-folders, listed with the folder name at the top of the column and the files within in the column underneath with hyperlinks to them. The goal is to be able to navigate to the folders on sheet A and to click there to go to the column where all the files in that folder are linked to. What I need is a macro that will search a column and for every cell that has text in it and create in the column directly to the right a hyperlink to the appropriate cell in the top row in sheet B that has the same name as the text in the cell on sheet A that it finds. I already have the macros for listing the folders on sheet A and the macro for listing all the files in the sub folders in sheet B and they work fine. The goal is a link list which is dynamic and that recreates itself no matter what I add to the folders.
For instance, let’s say there is a folder timesheets. If I add a sub-folder called accounting to the folder Sheet A scans then timesheets would be bumped down one spot on the list, so the macro has to look dynamically for the text in the column on sheet A.
Also the addition of the new folder would move the order of the columns on sheet B, since both lists are alphabetical. So the link generation macro would need to search row 1 of Sheet B to find the match for the text in the cell to the left of where the link would be generated and create a link to the top of that column. I’ve looked all through the site and not found something that I can even modify to do what I need.
I need to make named ranges from an unknown number of columns(at least 1) each with an unknown number of rows. Each column has the name of the named range as the first row, and then a variable number of rows containing part numbers.
I can do it 1 by 1, but id rather do it in a loop so that blanks dont cause errors. there will be different people using versions of this sheet with different model/part number information What i've tried: Count number of colums with row 1 containing data (11 max, which is more than will ever be used) add into array(I know i dont really need to add into the array, but i might use it later for some other code). The problem i'm having is finding the range of rows that need added to the named dynamic range and adding it.
For i = 1 To modelcount Redim Preserve Models(0 To i) Models(i) = Cells(1, i + 7) Range1 = Cells(2, i + 7).Address(xlA1) lastRow = Cells(rows.Count, i + 7).End(xlUp).Row Range2 = Cells(lastRow, i + 7).Address(xlA1) Reference = Cells(2, i + 7).Address(xlA1) ThisWorkbook.Names.Add Name:=Models(i), _ RefersTo:="=OFFSET(Reference,0,0,counta(Range1:Range2),1)", Visible:=True Next i
This gets me the range i need, but doesnt create the named range properly. If i go to insert>names>define, the named ranges are created, but they dont relate to the data in any columns. It shows the variable names rather than the cell range the variable represents.
I use the standard OFFSET-COUNT-MATCH method to create dynamic named ranges in my Excel projects. Needless to say, this method won't work on a spreadsheet with formulas extending beyond the current range. The count function counts the cells containing formulas, even though they may contain no data. Does anyone know how to construct a formula that will IGNORE the "formula only" cells??
Macro that could look at a row and take the values of two cells, combine them and then create a range name for a third cell in the row.
For example; for row 5420, in column C there is the word Florida, in column D there is the number 6235, and in column F there is a sentence or two. Is there a way to automatically create a named range for the cell of column F that would be named FLORIDA6235? And if so, can the macro do this for every row even if the word and/or the number changes.
I have roughly 28,000 rows and nine columns that I am working with. That's why I was wondering if there was a way to automate this. There are 10 states and I don't know how many different numbers attached to the states, however there are many state and number combinations that repeat, so there would be several rows with Florida in column C, 6235 in column D but a different description in column F.
I need to reference the projected and actual expenses from the total on worksheet 'expenses' So i did so, however, if I change the drop down on the expenses worksheet to only display housing data, then the projected and actual expenses on my budget worksheet changes as well to the new data portrayed on the expenses worksheet.
I need to reference the cell, without it changing when I change the category display, but I need the cell to change accordingly if I enter new data in the overall tablet on the expenses worksheet.
Or do I need to create a seperate worksheet that has the data in and reference my cells on my budget worksheet to that new worksheet?
I cant seem to find the correct syntax for creating 14 validation lists using array members as the source of the named ranged. The validation lists are stored on a different worksheet, the Named Ranges are created fine, as are the ranges that are having the validation applied. The Syntax I am having a problem with is
Public Sub assignDVList(WSD As Worksheet, sListName As String) Dim DVListName As String DVListName = "DV" & sListName Application.Goto Reference:=sListName With Selection.Validation .Delete .Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Operator:= _ xlBetween, Formula1:="=" & DVListName
It is the Formula1:="=" & DVListName that is creating the headache. The sub is called as the array moves through the columns, using the header row as the Name for the Named Range, and the data Validation worksheet uses the same naming except it has DV in front.
I want to export data from a set of named ranges in workbook x to another set of ranges in workbook y. The names of the ranges to be exported from and to are spesified in a table "Table_Export". Problem is I do not want to spesify in what sheets these respective ranges are located, seeing that I do not know the actual sheet names. But since the ranges are global it should somehow be possible to reference them in vba without referencing the respective worksheet?
The relevant code can be found below where either of the two 'commented lines within the if statement are what I want to accomplish.
Dim x As Workbook Dim y As Workbook Set x = ThisWorkbook Set y = Workbooks.Open(Range("Export_to").Value) Dim export_control As ListObject
I've a workbook in excel 2007 with 6 worksheets, 4 of witch have a named ranges, i would like to have a macro that consolidates this named ranges into one worksheet.
