I want to create a new excel application through macro. I basically want to transfer few columns from the parent workbook to new workbook. but these new workbook must be contained in a new excel application.
I have a worksheet using several columns and 100 rows. Column B and column C can contain a value "x" in either coulmn but not both in a specific row. The macro illustrated works perfectly for what I need but there must be a way to point the macro to a range of rows rather than using an "if" statement for each row as I've done.
Ive got a script in which I call another script using the Application.Run method. The exact line is below:
Application.Run "'" & wb & ".xls'!save_case", sheetname, fieldvalue The macro runs fine, but after that a different workbook becomes active. There are a couple more lines of code after the line above that don't get executed (ive tested this by putting a MsgBox command after it).
How do i pass control back to the starting subroutine? Or should it and there is something wrong with my code?
I want a macro that run the application GetOpenFilename (or something that is similar) but when I push the OK button, i don't want to open the file, I just want the filename of the file I have browsed to.
I was looking at Colo's website for the Application.SendKeys method, http://puremis.net/excel/code/039.shtml ,so that I can speed up a page/print setup macro that I have.
I was partially successful in setting this up, but I did notice that there was no argument number in that method for setting up the "Fit to x Pages Wide" and "y Pages tall".... I really need that functionality....
I saw something here that is supposed to get the zoomfactor : http://groups.google.com/group/micro...8d0?scoring=d& but I can't seem to incorporate it into my code so that it works.
I want to change Arg13:=79 to Arg13:= Zoomfactor, but I just ain't cutting it as each page is a different size and I am running this from Personal.xls ....
Is it possible to use a macro that needs parmeters as part of an application.ontime instruction? - I am getting a macro cannot be found error message. If I change the called macro so that parameters are not required, it is found OK (but obviously isn't doing what I want anymore!).
I reckon it is something to do with the quotations around the macro name
I have a program that produces data while im working on it, i want to start an excel macro (excel app running in background) from a keyboard shortcut that imports the current data. I cant think of a workaround, letting the macro run on a timer isnt possible since i want to be able to decide when exactly it imports the data, without the need for alt-tabbing out of the program (since its an directX app so alt-tab takes time and is annoying).
I have macro running with time application. when msgbox pops up, excel tab on windows taskbar should flashes, but it doesn't.When switch to excel, didn't even see the msgbox until I click on any cell.
Im copying and pasting data from one workbook to another but when I want to close the source workbook, it comes up with this message that I have much data and if I want to keep this in a clipboard. I thought I could disable this with Application.DisplayAlerts = False but when I do this, Excel freezes. Im I doing something wrong. How can I supress this window?
Public path As String Sub Get_data() path = "\Nlchoosa.nlOPS_Processes$OPS_ProcessesReports Sector performance" Workbooks.Open Filename:=path & "ReportsSector Performance Reporting week.xls" Range("A1").Select Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select Selection.copy Windows("Sector Performance report Week.xls").Activate ActiveSheet.Paste Application.DisplayClipboardWindow = False Windows("Sector Performance Reporting week.xls").Activate Application.DisplayAlerts = False End Sub
Firstly you don't need to know anything about Bloomberg to answer this query, only that Bloomberg has various functions that take time to update.
The code Application.Run "RefreshEntireWorkbook" will update these functions but Application.OnTime (Now + TimeValue("00:00:25")), "RunList" is required to allow them time to get the data from the feed. However this only works if the refresh and wait commands are in a seperate function. So in simplified terms it must go like this in vba:
I have a long complicated macro that processes a ton of data and gives the output in a new sheet. I then want to create new buttons (or some sort of user clickable triggers) on this new sheet that runs another macro.
I have got the actual adding of buttons in the sheet working, but I can't find a way to automatically assign macros to newly generated buttons during runtime. Is this even possible (or are there any clever tricks I could use to get around this?)
I have a workbook with 20 worksheets. I would like to create a Macro on each sheet that when you click a button it creates an email to a list of recipeients for each sheet.
I have a text document to which i need to do some changes and then turn it into CSV. Here are some lines of what the document looks like and below i will show you what i need it to look like. So i open the document with Excel and next I'm not sure how to do what i will show you below. Original:
I am working with excel 2003. I get a workbook sent to me via Email that has 12 tabs on it and each tab has to be printed out. The fastest way that I know, to get this done is start with tab 1; hit alt+f, u, alt+f, enter, Ctrl+P, enter, Ctrl+page down ( to move to next tab and do it all over again), each tab is a slightly different width so I am constantly have to use "Fit to Page" but each tab will fit on one page easy.
I was wondering can I use a key stroke macro to print this workbook. I actually get 5 workbooks like this every night, it does not really take that long, maybe I am just being lazy, I was thinking that I might be able to use a key stroke macro and then name it for what ever workbook it works with (workbook 1 print ) but I don't no if this will work or if there is an easier way to get the printing job done.
I can't upload the workbook but I could create a simple say 5 tab workbook that has no data in but has same formatting and upload that if you need to see what I am doing.
Ok, I have a situation that I would love to have some help with. I have a command button that when clicked takes the user through a few questions via input boxes. The final objective that I need help with is a large typing area. Either the input box typing area needs to be larger or I need a text box to appear. After user is done typing and presses ok, I need what they typed to go into an area where I have merged some cells/rows to make a paragraph.
I am a new user into excel using macros how I can automate a worksheet, after I have about 300 rows as expenses of which I want some of these to distinguish groups. Note that the name of expense is not stable for each time which i download the file, so based on the name of the output, i would like to write a macro so that running this macro to enter a number in column B for each expense which i want to group it so that then using filter i can issue any group. Note after filtering i would like to have the total in column C. Please see below extract of spreadsheet.
I currently have the below macro: If Cells(1, 3) = 2 Then For a = 1 To 336 b = Round(a * 2 + 0.99) Cells(b + 0, 3) = a Cells(b + 1, 3) = a
Next a MsgBox " Cell C1 is not equal to 2" End If
where the intent is that whatever cell A1 is equal to, that is how many times over it will duplicate a number in consecutive cells before moving to the next number, ie: 1 1 2 2 3 3 etc to 336.
How can I tweak the code so that if I change the data in cell A1 to 9, I don't have to go in and change the macro?
I need to create a macro that will move information from a range of columns and then insert them under existing information in another column.
here's my example, this is what I'm starting with:
There are only 3 rows in this worksheet and I have numbered the columns just for reference in solving this problem: Anyway, this is how it looks when I import the records: ...
I have a macro that opens XL workbooks runs a macro, closes the workbook and opens the next workbook until completed, this is all fine.
Now for some reason and it has me stumped it is creating a file called RESUME.XLW a workspace , my problem is how do i stop this from being created i have not programmed it nor want it, it seems to be some automated thing i have never seen before and it is driving me balmy.
I'm not too familiar with VB, and I'm trying to narrow down why my macro (and how) is creating a second, duplicate chart. I only need the chart to be created (and the corresponding data fields on the 3rd worksheet) once.
I have macro for creating months. Code worked fine, but now I use merged cells in range where days should be created, and code no longer works (Error : "Cannot change part of merged cells").
Tried with unmerging cells, but then code inserts days in shorter range that I need, so code needs to be changed.
Each macro is assigned to its own button, Clear and Restore. What I'm trying to do is make it so that the macro attached to the Restore button will not activiate unless the Clear macro attached to the Clear button is clicked first and visa versa. I can't see to find anthing quite like it in my research.
So I am starting to get ambitious with Excel now and am looking at creating a macro that will automatically create a pdf file of several worksheets at the same time. However this is my problem. Using the current version of Excel there is a wonderful record macro button, however when I try to include a function that would create a PDF, it says that I need to save any changes before creating the PDF. However when I save the file, I have to stop recording which defeats the whole purpose of creating the macro in the first place.
How can I use the record macro function to create my pdf macro without learning visual basic? If I cannot, how to write what it is that I am trying to accomplish?
I've got quite of few excel charts to make and have been looking for a way to automate the process. The chart types include line, pie, and bar. Basically, I have data for each state in the US that I am comparing with national level data. Thus each chart will have national level data and the data for each state. What I need is a macro that I can easily change the parameters for because different worksheets have slightly different layouts. I started by using the macro recorder to make a chart. Then I attempted to edit it so that it would run loops to make additional charts. Below is some sample data for the first worksheet I have and my attempted macro.
Sample Data:
Code: State Characteristic Value07 Value08 Value09 Alaska A 11 23 45 Alaska B 13 22 98 Alaska C 99 91 21 Alabama A 23 14 11 Alabama B 44 62 76 Alabama C 75 47 21[code]....
