Creating A Timer To Measure Macro Code Execution Times
Sep 7, 2006
I am looking for a way to measure how long it takes to complete a sub routine in VBA. I have code which posts data to matlab and then calls it back. What I need to know is how long does it take to complete each subroutine.
create a code which will measure this? I need to measure the time taken in 100ths of a second.
Is there any simple code to complete this? I am pasting a sample of my code which is using Matlab as a COM server.
Dim Matlab As Object
Dim MReal(10, 0) As Double
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer
Dim MImag() As Double
Dim value As Double
Dim RealValue As Double
I am sure I woould need to declare the timer but I do not know where and I am not sure of the syntax.

Now..when I run any of my macros, I get the following message.. "Code Execution has been interrupted".
I'm not sure why I'm getting this message but it happens everytime I run ANY macro. Note that if I hit "Continue" every time it gives me the option, I am able to successfully run the macro, but obviously, I shouldn't have to do this.

Here is exactly what was described:
A good place to start is to add some "timer code" in your macro. Add a small routine that saves a time value, and another routine that compares that saved value to the current time and displays the difference. At the beginning of a section of code you want to analyze, you call the first routine (which saves the start time), and then at the end of the section of code you call the second routine. In that way, you can determine which portions of your code are taking the longest time to execute. These are the code sections you then focus on, so you can figure out what they are doing that is taking so long.
This sounds like a great tool for optimization...

Is there anyway to lap the execution of the 3 lines in the below code (sample) say by 10 seconds each ?
Sub Macro1()
'
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "AAAAAA"
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "BBBBBB"
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "CCCCCC"
End Sub

I have the following piece of
Sub Summarise_Variations()
Dim myRange As Range
Dim Write_Cell As Long
With Application
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
.StatusBar = "Please wait - Summarising variations..."
End With
It happily goes through a list and sums multiple records. It might not be the most efficient or best way to do it but it works and when I run it on a couple of stand alone sheets it takes a couple of seconds to process if that.
Unfortunately when I run it as part of the overall application that I've developed it takes ages to run, i.e. more like ten minutes.
The spreadsheet has a few graphs and about 250 sumproduct and array formula live in it but all other formula on other sheets are created and then paste valued as part of other VBA routines. As you can see I've also turned calculation off as the procedure runs so don't understand why it is suddenly taking so long.

I have a function which will allow me to search for combination of numbers which will sum to zero. However, because the range could be as long as 300 rows or even the possibility of not finding the combination that will sum to zero, the macro will take ages to complete or even causes the whole excel to hang. So What i want is to instruct macro to stop doing the search if it cannot find the results after say 20 minutes of searching.
Is that possible?

I have created two userforms which allows people to log-in to the worksheet.
The code works great on the first go, sometimes even twice, but after a while I get taken to the VBE and shown the message "Code execution has been interrupted". And highlights a certain part of my code (highlighted in red below).
I will copy all of the code relating to the userform below.
UserForm Code
Code:
Private Sub CancelButton_Click()
Unload Me
End Sub
Private Sub ClearButton_Click()
TextUsername.Value = ""
TextPassword.Value = ""

There is definite problem, as the "Code execution has been interrupted" error message appears seemingly at random (although if the workbook doesnt change it is the same points), and for no reason.
If I click the continue button the macro runs exactly as planned, but still there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to why this happens!
It even invokes on the workboon_open function.

I am writing a routine to retrieve multiple stock quotes by looping through a bunch of sheets and refreshing a bunch of querytables that access the web. My data source (Livecharts) is often clogged up and queries will fail or get lost in space so after initiating the queries I wait for a while using a waitable and then check to see if each query has completed or is still refreshing. If they are still refreshing I cancel them and refresh again. Or at least that was the plan. What I have discovered is that as long as the vba code is running the results from the queries do not come back into excel. As soon as the code is exited or I go into break mode in the debugger the queries complete.
Is there some way to get the queries to refresh during code execution? Here is a code snippet that shows what I am trying. I have defined a Class Module defining an "EventfulQTable" and it's associated methods and properties so I can have a QueryTable with events. The sub Wait uses the windows API SetWaiTable command to pause for a specified period of time. It includes a DoEvents command which I thought would allow the returning queries back into Excel but no such luck.
Sub Refresh_Queries()
Dim SheetNum As Integer, ListSheet As Integer
Dim eqtQT As New EventfulQTable
Dim QueriesDone As Boolean
SheetNum = 1
ListSheet = 12
QueriesDone = False
On Error Goto QueryError

I have this codes which will only trigger if I manually execute it. What do I need to do to trigger it automatically whenever the worksheet change.
Below is the codes:
Sub Risk_Color()
Dim c As Range, myFontCol As Integer, myCol As Integer
For Each c In ActiveSheet.Range("f7:g20000")
myFontCol = xlAutomatic
myCol = xlNone
Select Case c.Value
Case Is = 1, 2, 3
myCol = 34
Case Is = 4, 5, 10, 20: myCol = 43
Case Is = 30, 40, 50: myCol = 6
Case Is = 70, 100, 140, 150
myCol = 5
myFontCol = 2

I wrote a very simple macro in an Excel file a few months ago. Worked great. Worked on my computer, and worked on a dozen other people's computers perfectly. Now, months later, ONE person is getting the error message 'Code execution has been interrupted' every time she runs the macro. I've tested it on my computer with Excel 2007, and it worked. Tested it on another computer with Excel 2003 (offending computer has Excel 2003), and it worked again. So I tested a third computer on Excel 2003, and it worked again. I'm 100% positive the macro code isn't causing this error. This makes me think that it's related to an application setting that was changed somehow.

I've taken data from a fixed-length text file and the records are identified using the first two characters on each line of the text file. I've managed to identify these in each row with other bits of code so that was fine.
Now, I have 56 string variables (identifying my record types), which I'm assigning into an array. Then, I want to go through each variable in the array, performing the same action by way of a For Next Loop where, by taking this particular RecIDNo (see my code) string variable I will get the code to copy/paste the data into the relevant worksheet (where later on I will apply a text to columns using another array). But first, this set must work before I can do that! To avoid confusion, note that the record types i.e. 01 through to 56, will be filtered, then copied into the corresponding worksheet with the same number.
The problem I'm getting is the autofilter I'm applying, then the array I'm trying to reference (to avoid repetitive coding!) doesn't work as the code doesn't compile (I've not worked a lot with Arrays but I'm learning all the time!)
Option Base 1
Sub test()
'The array is declared here:
Dim RecIDNo(56) As String
'The arrays are assigned the string variables below:
RecIDNo(1) = "01"
....
RecIDNo(56) = "56"
'This worksheet contains my data:
Sheets("DATA").Select
For RecIDNo(1 To 56) '<--I THINK THIS IS WHERE I'M GOING WRONG!!

Basically, in the "Thisworkbook" code , i have some code in the Workbook_BeforeClose section. Currently , it autosaves the workbook in a folder i have specified.
However, i need to add some code.I want to check that a certain cell has a value in it before the user closes the workbook, and if the cell is empty, show a messagebox asking him to enter a value.
I know how to get a messagebox to pop up, the only thing is once the user clicks the OK button,
i need the rest of the code execution to pause, allowing him to make the change then if he clicks the "X" (top right of the screen) to close the file or application, the filesave dialog appears and he can then save the document.
how to go about this because at the moment when user clicks ok, the messagebox just disappears and filesave dialog appears and he doesn't have a chance to edit the cell.

I was wondering if someone could help me generate a Macro to do the following:
I have a sheet with the following characteristics.
Column A, rows 8-15 contain headers
Column A, rows 17-24 contain headers
Column A, rows 26-40 contain headers
Column B to CV, row 6 may or may not contain an "X"
Column B to CV, rows 8-15 & 17-24 & 26-40 may or may not contain the various data
I need a macro which does the following on the press of a button located somewhere on the sheet:
Generate a .TXT file in the folder C:Test with the name "Test_YYYY_MM_DD_HH_MM_SS_Full.txt" which uses the system time and date to fill in the values In the TXT file the following data should be created: ....

The only change I made was to change the "Sheet1" to "Journal" to match the worksheet name in my workbook.
As you close and reopen the workbook, the timer should start with =NOW() in A1 (formatted as "HH:MM:SS") and count up with the current time until you close the workbook.
I use Excel 2010, could that be the problem, that I copied a VBA code for an older version of Excel???
Question: What exactly is a regular module, do I use Module 1 for the first portion of the code or place it in ThisWorkbook?

I am trying to fix a problem that I am having with Bloomberg add-in for Excel. Each day I populate 31 days of historical price data for 500+ stocks.
$A$K3 = "ACE US EQUITY"
$AL$3 = "=BDH(AK3,"PX_LAST",$D$1,$C$1,"DTS=h","dir=h")"
$C$1 = "=WORKDAY(TODAY(),0)"
$D$1 = "=BAddPeriods(C1,"NumberOfPeriods=-31","Per=wd","CDR=#A")"
What is supposed to happen is that in $AL$3:$BQ$3 there will be prices for 31 days.
I leave the workbook open as the Bloomberg DDE session remains open for 3 days even if the Bloomberg executable is not running.
Sometimes there is no problem and when I come into work the following day, the data is shifted forward by one day. Other times, much of the data is missing and I am forced to select and refresh each $AL$_ field. The problem with this is that for some reason the refresh is happening synchronously and I think this is causing havoc on the DDE connection and/or Excel. Resulting in slow/no updates. Also, if I refresh the worksheet some formulas will be overwritten with static data!
What I would like to do is create a macro that will:
1) clear all data in $AL$_:$BQ_$ & $BS$_:$CX_$
2) set the value of $AL$_ = "=BDH(AK$_,"PX_LAST",$D$1,$C$1,"DTS=h","dir=h")"
3) wait until the data is populated into $AL$_:$BQ$_ before going to $AL$(+1):$BQ$(+1); if $AM$_ has a value then most likely the data has populated in that row.
4) then when $AL$_:$BQ$_ is finished, do the same for $BS$_:$CX$_
I have been waiting for Bloomberg support to fulfill this request for over one month now with no results.
I have a very minute amount of code below:
PHP Code:
Sub PopulateData() PopulateData Macro Range("AL2:BQ2").Select
Selection.ClearContentsRange("AL2").SelectActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _ "=BDH(RC[-1],
""PX_LAST"",R1C4,R1C3,""DTS=h"",""dir=h"")"Range("AL2").SelectEnd Sub

I have a problem with the following code
Dim strProcLine As String
With ActiveWorkbook.VBProject.VBComponents(ActiveChart.CodeName).CodeModule
' MsgBox ok
' adaugat procedura goala
.CreateEventProc "Calculate", "Chart"
'MsgBox ok
strProcLine = "Format_Chart"
' MsgBox ok
.InsertLines .ProcBodyLine("Chart_Calculate", 0) + 1, strProcLine
' MsgBox ok
End With
' MsgBox ok
This is part of a larger macro, wich makes 2 pivottables and for each PT a chart, and for each chart i create an even procedure (Chart_Activate) wich calls a procedure to format the chart. Tha macro is alocated to the click even on a button in the sheet where i get the information from.
If i run the macro(click the button) with Microsoft Visual Basic Editor opened all goes ok. But if i close Microsoft Visual Basic Editor and then run the macro it stops right before .CreateEventProc "Calculate", "Chart" of the first chart , and i can't understand why. No error mesages delivered, nothing.

I am trying to write code which takes a reading off of a device every .005 seconds.
When I write the code as follows to take the reading every .004 seconds things work well.
PauseTime=5
Start = Timer
Oldtime=Timer
Do While Timer < Start + PauseTime
If Timer > Oldtime + .004 Then
Oldtime = Timer
Read(count) = Orbit.Networks(0).Modules(0).ReadCurrent
count = count + 1
End If
Loop
Finish = Timer
If however in the above code I only change .004 to .005 instead of taking readings every .005 seconds, I end up with readings roughly .015 seconds apart (approx)
Is there something unstable about the timer function to do this? Is there a different way to get a more stable result?

I have macros that often pause for the user to take some action -- for instance, to confirm that the correct cells are selected, or to delete something. Usually I use the "Stop" command, which opens the VBA editor; when I finish doing the manual action, I just resume the macro.
When writing macros for actual users, I'd like to do the same thing without their having to deal with the VBA window. Is there a way to pause and resume action and remain in the Excel window?

I have to make eighty to ninety entries daily in Column B. Then transfer these entries to another column N,(by copy/paste) after that a maco "text to column" is executed. Now I have linked Column B to N like =B2, =B3, etc. etc. thus instead of copy/paste, the data when entered in Column B, is automatically going to Column N. I wish that the macro (text to entry) may be executed by each entry made in Column B. Is it possible with a macro?

On a worksheet I have a command button that displays a ConfigureCatalog form.
Code:
Public StopRequested as Boolean
'Worksheet Command Button will display the Configure Catalog Form
Private Sub CmdConfigure_Click()
CatalogConfigForm.Show vbModeless
End Sub
The ConfigureCatalog userform has two Command Buttons: cmdRebuildCatalog, and cmdStop. RebuildDSWCatalog is a macro that reads and analyzes just over 35,000 records and updates other worksheets. As it runs, it repaints the CatalogConfigForm with a progress message every 100 records. It can run for about 3 minutes. I want to provide a "STOP" button that will allow the user to interrupt the RebuildDSWCatalog macro and return control to the user.
Code:
Private Sub cmdRebuildCatalog_Click()
StopRequested = False
Call RebuildDSWCatalog
End Sub
Private Sub cmdStop_Click()
StopRequested = True
End Sub
While processing the 35,000 records, I want the RebuildDSWCatalog macro to check whether StopRequested has been set to TRUE prior to processing the record. If StopRequested = TRUE, I want to drop out of the macro.
Code:
Public Sub RebuildDSWCatalog()
StopRequested = FALSE
For DSWRecord = DSWStart To DSWCount
If StopRequested = True Then
[Code] ....
Problem is that once the RebuildDSWCatalog macro starts running, the STOP command button never seems to get the focus back. All other input is inhibited until the macro ends.
It just ignores that I'm hitting that STOP button. In fact, the button doesn't visibly respond at all until RebuildDSWCatalog finishes processing all 35,000 records.
