Create VBA InputBox
I am trying to create an inputbox using code from this site:
Sub NumericDataType()
Dim lNum As Long
On Error Resume Next
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
lNum = Application.InputBox _
(Prompt:="Please enter you age.", _
Title:="HOW OLD ARE YOU", Type:=1)
On Error Goto 0
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
If lNum = 0 Then
Exit Sub
Else
MsgBox "You are " & lNum & " years old."
End If
End Sub
I get an error on the first line that says, "Compile error: argument not optional".

VBA Inputbox
I have another dilema. I am writing a macro that essentially takes a template from a workbook and copies it to another workbook that already has data. the data is then imputed into the pasted template through the macro... my dilema is that I have numerous data sheets so at the begining of the code I need the macro to pause so the user can manually select the cell or range that the copied template is to be pasted too... I was thinking an inputbox would work but I am unsure how to write this part of the code.

VBA Inputbox To Sql Queries
The report is a "template" that will be ran once a month every month and will look back at the previous month's data. What i've invisioned is writing a vb script to load on workbook open asking various questions via "inputbox()" method. SET NOCOUNT ON DECLARE @StartDate DateTime DECLARE @EndDate DateTime SET @StartDate = '20070731 10:10:51.450' SET @EndDate = '20070731 10:11:51.450' SET ROWCOUNT 100 SET NOCOUNT OFF SELECT EventTagName = EventHistory.TagName, Value FROM EventHistory INNER JOIN AnalogSnapshot ON EventHistory.EventLogKey = AnalogSnapshot.EventLogKey INNER JOIN SnapshotTag ON SnapshotTag.SnapshotTagKey = AnalogSnapshot.SnapshotTagKey WHERE SnapshotTag.TagName IN ('SysSpaceMain') AND DateTime >= @StartDate AND DateTime

Using VBA To Create VBA Code On The Fly
I have a vba module that reads a value from a txt file and saves that value in a variable called "iniInfo". I want to permanently assign that value programatically by using VBA code to create a Public variable e.g. "PUBLIC CONST conFIg = iniInfo" in my modGlobalVar Module. (Of course, this would only create the code if the "conFig" variable doesn't already exist.)

VBA To Create New Sheet ...
I would like to be able to have a macro, linked to a button, so that when you press that button it creates a new named sheet based on data in a particular cell. I.e. There is a table with the following data: Apples (A1) Oranges (A2) Pears (A3) There are also the sheets Apples, Oranges & Pears. You enter 'Grape' in cell A4, then when you press the button it creates a new sheet named Grape. Also when a new sheet is created, the 'input cell', in this case A4, is moved down one so that when the next sheet is needed to be added, it doesn't just add the same sheet (i.e. in the example above, we don't end up with a new sheet named 'Grape' each time we click the button).

Create Tag In VBA?
I found this really cool code that creates a tag cloud in Excel using VBA. It's far too complex for my understanding but I was hoping I could get some of the experts opinions on here about modification possibilities. I have attached the macro-enabled 2007 workbook. What I am trying to do is search through a list of keywords and determine each keyword's density within a list. The list for example could look like this: slow windows xp windows xp running slow windows xp computer [slow windows xp] [windows xp running slow] [windows xp computer] [computer running slow windows xp] "computer running slow windows xp" "slow windows xp" "windows xp running slow" "windows xp computer" You'll notice the characters " [ ] of which I would like to ignore when the cloud builds. The cloud would list the most dense keywords first, and gradually decrease to the least dense keywords. The macro code is inside the workbook but I'll list it here to:

Create Comparison Code In VBA
I have to do monthly comparisons of two excel worksheets, one being a vessel timesheet and the other being an excel download from manpower software that we use. The comparison that is being made are days of the month, whilst the unique identifier between the two sheets (To make it easier to understand I will call them sheet1 and sheet2) is an employee ID. Both sheets, alongside the name and employee ID, list all the days of the month that employees have worked. If they have worked, there is a "1" under that day, if they have not the cell is blank. What I currently do manually is: 1: Search for the employee ID (and/or name) in sheet1 and compare the days with the employee ID in sheet2. 2: Highlight the differences 3: Move onto the next employee ID All differences are highlighted in sheet2. Differences highlighted are in the days only, where if any days are missing/extra in either sheet, then the particular cell(s) are highlighted in yellow. If an employee is missing from sheet1 but is in sheet2, then all the days are highlighted (in sheet2). If an employee is missing from sheet2 but is in sheet1, then that particular employee is copied to the bottom of sheet2 (after last row). As this is horribly complicated to explain, I can attach an example if this is sounding rather inexplicable? Is it possible to attach a xls to a thread?

VBA Macro To Create New Worksheet, Charts, Etc.
I need a macro to create the following worksheets and charts from an Excel data set: Three (3) worksheets (already created manually in attached Excel file): 1. Chart Data. (a) Column A in Chart Data is always numbered 1 - 600 (50 years x 12 mos/yr). (b) Column I and column Y data sets (from Prod_Month) created in Chart Data. Each data set can be identified and collated with column F in Prod_Month (API) which is unique for each dataset. 2. Rate vs. Month - plot of Daily Gas (col. Y in Prod_Month) vs. Months (col. A in Chart Data). 3. Rate vs. Time - plot of Daily Gas (col. Y in Prod_Month) vs. Calender Time (col. B et. al. in Chart Data) At a minimum, could someone help me create the Chart Data worksheet from the data in PROD_MONTH? Charting all the columns takes time from Chart Data but any data manipulation macro(s) help.

Can VBA Create A Named Sheet In One Step?
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.

VBA - Create Outlook Message With From-field
I have two question for Excel in combination with microsoft outlook: 1. I was wondering if it is possible to create an email from Excel which automatically adds the From-field with a pre-defined emailadres. I am using CreateObject("Outlook.Application"), but I can not add the From-field. 2. I also would like to know if it is possible to do automatically fill the To-field with the emailadress from the user who send me the original file. Maybe this needs some more explanation (sorry my english isnt too good): * A user can download an excel-form from the internet * The form is sent to my emailadress * I give a number to the form * The user will get a message that his question is attend to with the number of the question So I use a macro-button to reply when I have filled in the question-number.

VBA To Create A Hyperlink Drilldown For Each Cell
I need help in making a VBA to create a looping hyperlink drilldown for each cell in the inventory_general wksht. The purpose of this sheet is to allow a user to click on a hyperlink which will then reference a macro to autofilter the data in the bin_lot worksheet to display all rows for that particular item number. Apparently, you can't select all the cells and insert a hyperlink because all the hyperlinks will reference the first cell value for autofiltering. This is what I tried but it's not working obviously. Sub HyperlinkDrilldown() ' ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:= _ "Bin_Lot!A1", TextToDisplay:=target.value Range("A2:A21").Select End Sub

VBA - Create Folder With Date In Name, Populate With Sheets

Every time any of the 5 modules is run a check is performed whether a folder with a specific name and date exists e.g. "Audit Tool 27 06 2008" and if it does not exist yet to create it. The new workbook should be saved to this folder with above mentioned name e.g. "Dbase 27 06 2008".

VBA Macro Code To Create Multiple Charts
I need to create 63 charts from data which I have in two columns. I want to create multiple charts using one macro. For the first chart I want it to use cells K2:K80 as the x values, and M2:M80 as the y values. For the next chart I want it to use cells K81:K159 as the x values and M81:159 as the y values. For the next chart I want it to use cells K160:K238 as the x values and M160:M238 as the y values. I want to continue this, creating a chart for every 78 cells of data, all the way until the 63rd chart which uses K4900:K4978 as the x values and M4900:M4978 as the y values. I have created the following macro by " recording." This macro generates the first chart that I want: Sub Macro5() ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddChart.Select ActiveChart.ChartType = xlXYScatterSmoothNoMarkers ActiveChart.SeriesCollection.NewSeries ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).XValues = "=Sheet1!$K$2:$K$80" ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Values = "=Sheet1!$M$2:$M$80" ActiveChart.ChartType = xlXYScatterSmoothNoMarkers ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-3 End Sub How can I alter this macro to create all 63 charts?. It seems like there is an easy way to do this, but I don't use macros very much (at all).

VBA Macro To Create Multiple Data Validation Lists From Variables & Named Ranges
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 a box to display the Surname that the user typed into the inputbox with a message asking Are Details Correct? with a Yes and No Button. Clicking the Yes button moves onto the next inputbox clicking the No button cancels the whole macro before it enters data into cells.
