I'm attempting to create a database on Excel 2007 to create a record of all the documents I use at work. At the moment I have an index sheet where I enter the indivudual project numbers. Is it possible in VB to take a value from this index sheet, copy an existing (template within the workbook) sheet and rename the new tab with the project number from the index?
Example:
As there will be many projects within the database is it possible to code it such that:
New Sheet1 created from template within workbook -> Tab renamed according to value of 'Index!B4'
New Sheet2 created from template within workbook -> Tab renamed according to value of 'Index!B5'
New Sheet3 created from template within workbook -> Tab renamed according to value of 'Index!B6'
and so on......
Further, is it also possible to automatically create the new sheet as soon as a project number is entered into 'Index!B4', 'Index!B5', 'Index!B6'?
ie: Text entered in 'Index!B4' -> new sheet created and renamed automatically
I want to do a loop where you can copy say A3 worksheet 1 then add another sheet naming the work sheet "A3" then copying A3 worksheet 1 to A1 "A3". After that looping to A4 to a new work sheet naming the work sheet "A4"copying the value to A1 "A4", etc...
Is there a simply way of doing this loop? I can probably fit my other coding into the structure.
Is there a way to name a sheet in vba? I am creating new sheets in vba, and renaming these tabs, but is there a way to actually rename the sheet (so that in the properties window it says (Name) "Demand" AND Name "Demand" Instead of (Name) Sheet1, Name "Demand"?
I want something strange but i guess you can do just about anything with excel these days if you ask around.
I want names for the sheets that are contained on a specific excel file that i have to be automatically generated accordingly to the following:
sheetname = runxyy_s=zz%
Where x is the lowercase letter of the word formed on the name of the first sheet of the workbook and yy and zz are values stored on specific cells on the sheet,lets say yy is A1 and zz is H4.
I have a userform with a textbox and an OK button and having clicked OK a particualar sheet is given the name in the textbox. If the character '/' is included in the textbox a standard Excel message appears explaining that this character cannot be used. On clicking 'END' on the message the userform automatically disappears and I have to close the file and reopen to end another name.
Is there any way that I could introducing my own basic messagebox which says 'The characters /, ? etc cannot be used' and on clicking OK the userform stays and you can try again.
I would like to create a macro which will copy the names of the files and folders of a chosen directory into a spreadsheet, effectively creating an index. I don't know how to go about this or even if it is possible. I'm trying to avoid having to do it manually as the directory in question spans 1500 folders...
I want to have certain sheets in my workbook named from the result of a formula on that sheet in A1. There will never be an instance where two sheets would be the same name. I have ZERO experience in VBA. I tried the code below in each of the worksheets modules where I wanted the sheet name to change but it doesn't work.
Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then Sh.Name = Target End Sub
Im sure there is a post somewhere on this forum as I have seen it before but I cant find it anywhere. All I want to do is be able to select Sheets Sun,Mon,Tue,Wed,Thu,Fri,Sat without naming each of the sheets. The post I seen would select all the sheets between the two sheets that were stated in the vba code. something like: Sheets( Array("Sun" To "Sat").select
i have one excel sheet (refer attach) i give some example 7 to 8 customers, but in sheet nos. Of customer name a to z suppose to 3000 customer list. Now i want to create automatic customer alfa- numaric code.
see attached workbook. I want VBA to insert an index/match forumla on sheet 1 to lookup a value from sheet 2. I don't want it to specify a range though. I want VBA to look to see if there is data above and to the left of the cell and if it is true insert the index/match formula. Then it won't matter what row or column I put the headings in.
I have the following code which is set to work for individual worksheets. How do I change this code so that the macro works for all worksheets starting from sheet index 10 onwards.
Sub CopyDownFormulae() Dim rCell As Range Dim lStop As Long
lStop = Cells(Rows.Count, 12).End(xlUp).Row
For Each rCell In Range("N10:U10").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormulas).Cells Range(rCell, Cells(lStop, rCell.Column)).FillDown Next rCell End Sub
I am trying to figure out the best way to go about creating a new sheet from an existing sheet which has column titles. I guess the best thing for me to do is give an example of what I would like to have accomplished.
sheet A has the following: title1 title2 title3 title4 title5 a b c d e
I would like sheet B to be created with: sometitlez sometitley sometitlex b d e
so basically, I would like to map tiltel2 to sometitlez, title4 to sometitley, and title5 to sometitlex
the reason I am doing this little project is so that I can import the new worksheet to a mysql database with only the necessary information. Please note that sheet A may contain many rows and the converted sheet B will have many rows too.
Is there a straightforward way to find a sheetnumber based on the name of that sheet? Eg if I have 10 sheets and the fifth sheet is called "number5", I want to get a 5 based on an expression that uses the sheetname "number5".
I have an issue creating a PDF of more than one sheet. Only top left corner of sheets are shown in PDF. Creating a PDF of a single sheet works perfectly. I have attached the result (2 pdf-files) and the original Excelfile.
I have an "Index" Sheet with all the information and codes for my "Sales" Sheet. I want to copy the code I made with the "Index" Sheet to my "Sales" Sheet if the Criteria has matched.
1Does Excel process worksheets (tabs) in the left-to-right order in which the tabs appear visually? Or in the order of the worksheets' index numbers as they appear in the VBE Project Explorer window? 2Is there a way to renumber or reassign index numbers to specific worksheets?
I am trying to find out whether it is possible to reference to a sheet index number, instead of sheet name, in a VLOOKUP formula.
For instance, normally I would write:
VLOOKUP(A1,'ExampleSheet'!A1:B10,2,False)
(I hope got the translation to English language Excel correct)
Let's say that the sheet index of Examplesheet is 2 (at least it is 2 the way VBA sees it).
Is there a way I could reference sheet number 2 in the VLOOKUP formula, instead of its name? My sheet names vary, but the formula should look in the same area, regardless of name.
Is it possible to create an index of cell data (in my case personal names)? And if so can it be done so that each entry is a button to click to go to the cell?
I have a workbook containing multiple sheets of data. I have a macro to analyze this data but want to add a popup menu with a dropdown list of all sheets in the workbook. The idea is to have the macro prompt me to select which sheet to continue running on. I can't remember how to create an input box with a dropdown menu.
I've got an Excel document that is generated from a third party programme (See ExcelDoc attached)
I'm trying to manipulate it so that a macro creates a CSV file like the one attached (see THK.csv)
I need to have the following columns in the CSV file populated using the Excel spreadsheet Column A: Will need to have the NUMBER that is in cell B2 of the Excel file in this case the number is 0714 (need to keep the preceeding 0 too) Column B: Will need the phone number Column C: Will need the fax number Column D: Will need to have the email address Column E: Will need to have the date only Column F: Will need to have the Order Number Column G: Will need to have the Customer name Column H: Will need to have the Customer telephone number Column I: Will need to have the Customer alternative telephone number **Column J: Will need to have the 1st line of the address (after First Address in xls doc) Column K: Will need to have the 2nd line of the address Column L: Will need to have the 3rd line of the address Column M: Will need to have the 4th line of the address Column N: Will need to be a blank cell Column O: Will need to be a blank cell Column P: Will need to be a blank cell Column Q: Will need to be a blank cell Column R: Will need to be a blank cell Column S: Will need to be populated with the information that is after the field MyAddress: in Cell B11 of the xls document.
I've managed to get a macro that will take the information and transpose it into a new document and rename it as an CSV file but I am having a lot of problems trying to get the macro to create the CSV file in the format that I need.
**This cell is generated and will have commas at the end of each line of the address and will be terminated by a period (at line 4 of the address. Sometimes there will be 4 lines to an address but sometimes there may only be 2 or three. In the case where there is no information I need to have a blank (null) value in the cell
I am currently looking at a simple data set spanning a few years of annual average data. I want to create a front sheet to show people in what year the maximum value was reached for each site but am having trouble returning the values......
The summary sheet is headed:...... I want the formula to say - find the summary sheet max value cell in the main data sheet row 2 (for XYZ) and return the corresponding column from row 1 (year). I've got myself in a muddle trying to create array data from the index function and want something simple. There are only about 30 rows so am happy to manually select the rows in question and repeat the formula entry so it doesn't need to be fancy.
I have table as below of raw data. In which data will increase dynamically both for rows and columns from starting column for eg say Column "D".
I want to get ID data on sheet2 to compare it with some other data for the ID by using formula = INDEX(Dynamic range,MATCH(ID Ref- Sheet2,Sheet1! ref -dynamic,0),column ref) and get the referred ID data on "Sheet2").
On Sheet2 ID Data1 Data2 Data3 Data4 Data5 Data6 Data7
I am trying to place a hyperlink on each worksheet to an Index worksheet. This is what I come up with so far, and it does not work.
Code: Sub CreateIndexHyperlinks() Dim ws As Worksheet For Each ws In Worksheets ws.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=ws.Range("H1"), Address:="", SubAddress:="Index", TextToDisplay:="Back to Index" Next ws End Sub
It successfully puts the words "Back to Index" into cell H8 of every worksheet, but this cell does not link back to the Index sheet (which is called "Index"), the way I want it to.
I don't really understand the Address and SubAddress part of the argument for the Hyperlinks.Add method. I am guessing the Address part is "" because I am linking to a place in the same workbook. Is that right?
I tried changing the SubAddress to Worksheets("Index") and Worksheets("Index").Range("A1") but that just resulted in an error message.
