Creating Text Box Using Macro
Dec 16, 2009
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.

Is iy possible to create a macro to add a character to a cell with existing text, such as:
Progressive Insurance $
Where the name is in "whatever" font,color,format, and then the macro could insert the $ as pictured above different font,color?
I have played around with trying to write, or copy as image...with no luck.

I had posted earlier to see if there was a way to protect certain cells from being updated when using a linked excel spreadsheet to access. Since there have been no replies I'm assuming not.
Different approach, can I create a Macro that would run after the update that would insert my required text into each cell from A2 through to R2.
The text would always be the same and always in exactly the same cells. This would need to be an insert into and not a replacement of the data already in those cells.
A1 B1 C1 D1
State
BUName
InsuranceCompanyName
Claim
ROnumber
Renter Last Name
[Code] .......
A2 B2 C2 D2
CategoryFilter CategoryFilter CategoryFilter NoFilter
The text under each of the A2, B2, C2 etc is what I would want the macro to do for me, essentially putting back what the update from the linked source removed.

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 am trying to get spaces in text from several cells
A5 GH B1 YO E3 AF < I linked these cells with the & =A5&GH&B1 and it comes out like this GHYOAF
I would like it to come out like this : (either with or without the / or underscore in leu of a space)
Additioinally if I use the CONCATATE function it just showes the cells like this A5B1E3 ? Dont understand why its not showing the data rather the cell names & Numbers ?

each row in sheet1 contains variables that, when applied to cells in sheet2, calculate a final figure. I have written code that selects each row, distributes its variables in sheet2, and shows the result back in sheet1, then selects the next row, and so on until all rows have been calculated.
The calculation is complex, and I would like to create a text file that stores the calculation for each row in the same text file. The calculation is a 9 columns by 33 rows, and I would like to preserve this shape in the text file, though its OK not to have columns not lining up.
There is a similar problem on an old thread but this requires only one iteration of "open file, write values, close file". I need "open file, write values, write more value, close file".

I have many users of the same spreadsheet on different PCs writing .txt files to a common directory on a central server. I want to be able to create a uniquely named .txt file, using a set naming convention (datetimeotherthingsetc.txt) each time they execute my export code routine. Is there a way I can create a txt file from vba code? I have figured out how to write into an existing .txt file but would like to know if I can create a .txt file from scratch from vba code? ps to avoid any confusion I dont want to save (ie save as) the open spreadsheet to a .txt file

Any formula to recognize and copy text from any sheet and create a list of the text items on separate sheet. Attached is a sample file I use. The text items in sheet 20 column a,b,c are items I want copied to a different sheet (list). i would like those items in the 3 columns to be copied and create a single list so I can have a count(Don't want duplicates). From there I would add another formula to give me a count.

Is there a way to make a simple text analyser that will return the number of times each word is used in a sentence or paragraph within a cell?
I use excel to write short paragraphs to upload onto social network sites and I would like a formula or program that tells me how many times each word has been used over a number of cells, to avoid repetition. Is there a way to do this?

I need to create a form that if you were to enter a name in the text box it would fill all the information across that row into other boxes on the form. Basicly if I type John Doe in the text box it would look in col A for John Doe and then put whats in the cells on that row into different boxes on my form. I have tried searching but I have had no luck.

as you can see I have a date in the middle, I want it to reference to a cell with a date in and return the information from that document with the change in date. So all I have to do is drag the formula down and it will return the info i want out of each report.I think it might be an add on that I need to download?

What I need it for is an automated report that should be used for several different projects. Each projekt have events on different dates, and I only want the report to show a specific date if there is some text (i.e. event) on that date. As it is now, it's a looong report with several blanks with only a date showing. So it should insert a row (the tricky part) + the date + the text if condition is met, and do nothing if they are not. The script should add and remove rows and text depending on what project the information is taken from.
The data it should grab is in this form (many more data inputs though..):
Date Date Date
TEXT
And the report:
Date:
Date: TEXT
Date:
and should be like:
Date: TEXT

What I have is a double quoted, comma delimited text file that is created from an external application, every now and again we need to open the file to make corrections and this is easier if we open it via Excel using the delimiter options, the problem is when saving the file as a csv it removes the double quotes, however I have found some vba coding that adds the double quotes back, which works great, but it changes the format of the date fields from what the original file had from 09-Aug-2009 to 09/08/2009.
I suspect this may be because the file is opened before the double quotes are added and excel changes the format.
Is there any code I can add that will stop the date format from changing ...

I'm not sure what I'm trying to do is even possible, but figured this is the place to ask the question. I'm trying to compare a list of companies (column a) to a list of employee email addresses (column b) and post results (column c) that display all associated email addresses that are unique to company name. Since multiple employee email addresses can be associated with numerous company names.

I know teachers can just highlight the data and insert charts, but many of them don't know how to do that. I have been asked to make the process a one click function.

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.

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?
