I am trying to write a formula whether it be in VBA or a Macro that will do the following.
In cell A7 and A10 there are validation boxes that drop down with a list of items that can be selected.
We want the user to be able to add multiple items under each month but keep the list to only what is needed. Therefor the function I am trying to get is once cell A7 has a selction or isnot blank or is greater than 0 we want to add a line directly below it with all the same functionality as line 7. Everything else will shift down and maintain the same functionality.

I created a custom toolbar button which works perfectly.
Because I needed to save each workbook as a specific workbook this is taken care of by the vb code.
I would like when the button is pressed for the original workbook template to be opened.
At this moment if I have a blank workbook or no workbook open and I press the button the programme opens a version of the workbook but not the template version how do I point Excel at the templates.
Just curious as to what could make a custom menu or custom button disappear from Excel upon opening it. I had created a custom menu with personal.xls macros in it for someone here a while back, and today it was completely missing.. although the Personal.xls folder still existed with the macros.
I am quite sure that they did not manually remove the menu by right-clicking and selecting Customize and dragging back the menu items...

Problem is that when I right click my makro keeps copying itself. Ten times right click=ten my macro in the right click menu. It means that

I have created an Addin from one I found on this site which creates a menu on the CommandBar. On this menu I can add my Macros. The Menu is initially supposed to perform a delete function then an add, just in case the menu already exists on the CommandBar. It is also supposed to Uninstall the menu when you de-select the Addin. At the moment it doesn't seem to be doing either, as I have now got 5 CommandBar menu's all the same and I can't delete them?
This also creates a problem of when I add another macro, the menu on the CommandBar doesn't update with the addition?
I have attached the .xla file for you to look at and see where I'm going wrong.
VBA Macros & Creating An Add-in For Them
I'm trying to load a custom menu in a workbook to avoid having users to load an add in to use the spreadsheet. I'm trying to add this to the "this workbook" tab but I've never done this.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have create a custom menu and want to add a choice and a subchoice that will guide the user to insert a number in an inputbox or under a list. Then the user's selected number it will be used as parameter for a vba code.
Eg.:
The choice is: How many rows will be marked
The subchoice : 10 (default value)
What i want is the following:
If the user choose the above subchoice then it has to be appeared an inputbox or something like that in which he has to insert a number, eg. 45. After that the choice must shows
The choice: How many rows will be marked
The subchoice: 45
This parameter must be active all the time that the user uses the workbook. At the end, if the user saves the workbook, the next time it will be opened, the subchoice must have the value 45.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am working on a workbook that has a custom worksheet menu bar item created every time the file opens. If I try to edit the path of these macros and save the file, when i reopen the file, it is back to the original paths. I can't find any VB code, hidden worksheets, hidden cells,etc to find the source of this item being created. I have even deleted all VB modules and worksheets except a blank sheet and it still creates the item. Somewhere this menu bar item is being created and I have no idea where. It acts the same on 4 different machines and acts the same on Excel 97, 2000, 2003 and 2007.

View 2 Replies View RelatedTrying to write a VBA code to add a new menu item with submenus on the Standard toolbar when Workbook_Open and then deleting it (_Before close). Just having trouble with the creating of the menu item. Here is what I have so far:
Sub Workbook_Open()
...
Dim menuitem As CommandBarPopup
Set Menu = Application.CommandBars("Menu Item").Controls.Add (Type:=msoControlPopup, Before:=13)
...
End Sub
So I am trying to make a file that when opened will act as a template does and change the file name on start-up.
Typically, the template changes the file name by appending one number (e.g. "Book Template REV 1.1.xltm' upon opening would change the file name to 'Book Template REV 1.11.xlsx'). What I want to do, however, is to custom the name change so I could use the file 'Book Template REV 1.1.xltm' while having it change the file name upon opening to 'Custom Name 567.xlsx', without a user being notified of the change (since typically when a template opens the file, the user has no notification that the file name has changed ever so slightly).
I created an add-in with custom VBA and forms, which also stores user preferences in worksheets in the addin. When the add-in loads, it creates a custom menu on the Add-Ins ribbon that allows the user to run the main macro, or to assign a shortcut key of their choosing. It also allows them to enter registration information.
In Excel 2013, the code is all accessible since the add-in still loads, but it doesn't add the custom menu allowing users to interact with the macros. I'm told this is due to the switch to SDI.
It seems that adding Workbook_Open code to a normal file allows the custom menu to be created, but adding the same code to an add-in file does not work.
A spreadsheet that needs a new menu item in a custom menu does not show the custom menu code. Tools-->Customize-->Commands-->Rearrange Commands shows the menu and allows me to add a new menu item and macro.
After saving and exiting excel and going back into the spreadsheet, the new menu item is gone. How can I find the code to do this to keep the menu item? In the VBE, I looked in the object browser(F2) in all of the libraries and could not find the code. In the workbook_open and workbook_activate I can disable it with CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls("menu").Delete and it disappears.

I added a menu command button to a toolbar in a specific workbook. The macro is housed only in that workbook and the macro needs to run on every worksheet in the workbook.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've written a ton of VB macros that do various things to a raw data sheet. I want now to create a custom menu (in the the menu ribbon bar at the top of the screen). I'd like this menu to be used to activate the various macros for whoever has my add-in.
I've found several examples on how to create an add-in, and creating custom menus, however they all for when someone opens a workbook with the code, and then they remove the custom menu when the workbook is closed. I would like my custom menu to stay on the users ribbon bar no matter what workbook they have open. The only time the custom menu should not appear is if the user removes the add-in.

I have created several spreadsheet with customized menus. In step 5 when I type
a period the options for selecting Caption does not appear. In step 6 the 'Control' word didn't appear in list. Sometimes the options in step 6 do appear BUT not the option for Controls. I have created spreadsheets with menus that work but the only way I could do it was to cut and paste from the website and then modify it.
