I have a worksheet that contains 5-6 bar charts on it and I am trying to display additional data to the user whenever the mouse hovers over one of the bars.
I found a really good start at:
[url]
And it works perfectly whenever the chart is in its seperate 'Chart' tab, but I can't figure out how to make it work when the charts are in a worksheet instead.
I am using Excel 2003 and wish to make a tip message (pop-up like window perhaps) if a value of a particular cell is exceeded.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat I have is a list of data on a sheet. Through some code, I would like to visualize my data in a certain way. What I currently have is a grid, each square corresponding to a single data point. I would like to assign a tooltip to a label that will be sitting on top each of these squares.
What I have so far: I have a userform which will be populated by labels programmatically. I am doing it like this because there are at least a few thousand labels to be created. I am currently doing it like this:
Code:
counter = 15
For i = 1 To 20
For j = 1 To numrows
[Code]....
Essentially, what I have is a grid, and I would like to change the letter "x" in the label to another color when the mouse is hovering over the label.
Is this the correct way of achieving what I want, or is there a better way? Is there a way of assigning a single mouseover/hover event to the label once it has been created? (All these labels can be handled by a single function to just change the text color).
Add a mouseover/comment to an autoshape/freeform shape in excel? Currently I have a shape that runs a macro when clicked. I'd like a little pop up to tell the use what the shape does.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI would like to do a routine in VBA on excel 2007 that makes the following:
1- When the mouse is over a cell it pops-up a window that shows a picture;
2- When the pointer is removed from the cell the window that contains the picture closes;
It is very important that the picture that is shown be adressed by a relative path from the folder in which is the excel file.
The pictures can change; this is the reason that the picture should be addressed by a path.

When I hover the mouse over a cell with comments, the status bar displays a message; for example "Cell A12 commented by A satisfied Microsoft Office user".
I only get this message for one column. The cells in all other columns give my first and second name as the author of the cell comment.
Why it is only effecting one column. I have been unable to change the annoying "commented by A satisfied Microsoft Office user" to my own name.
Is there a macro that can do this? I tried two macros I found online, both from a few years back, but neither of them worked.
I'm trying to make a converter between about 8 various types of values. These are not units like Km or miles or something like that, but rather numbers that represent a specific "hardness value" on a variety of scales (to name a few: HRC, HRA, K)
What I've been doing so far is plotting the two types against eachother and then getting the best trendline I can so that I can use that formula to convert between the two with relative certainty. (for example, when plotting HV vs HRC my fourth order polynomial trendline with an Rsquared of 1 is y=0.0001x4 - 0.0188x3 + 1.0768x2 - 20.709x + 350.69)
My questions comes up where I was hoping to make a window or box of some sort allowing the user to input a numeric value, then selecting the Input units and the hopeful output calculated units, and have the box spit back to the user the conversion.
I want to be able to create a range of VBA userforms to quickly perform long tedious tasks. I want these userforms to be accessed from a nice tidy toolbar.
I have done this and it looks nice and works well. What I would like to be able to do is have my custom toolbar of userform controlled functions be transferable so that if someone else wants my toolbar and attached functions they can install it easily much the same way you can do with an add in.
Is this sort of thing possible or does it require them to manually install all my userforms, modules and toolbar? If it is possible what sort of things should I be looking at?
I added a custom add in ages and ages ago and have forgotten how I did it! I'm now trying to remove it but not having much luck.
Its not listed in the Tools>References menu and its not added on to a workbook saved in the C:Documents and SettingsUserApplication DataMicrosoftExcelXLSTART folder.
Are there other ways I could have added it? If so can someone let me know as I might be able to remove it then!

I am trying to add aright click menu item a cell.
I am using the following code in a module.
Sub addmenu()
Set nbar = Application.CommandBars("Cell")
Set ntrnew = nbar.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton)
ntrnew.Caption = "Paste In"
ntrnew.Visible = True
ntrnew.BeginGroup = True
ntrnew.FaceId = 110
ntrnew.OnAction = "Test"
To trigger the first code when needed.
I know this all works when I put it in brand new workbook it works my custom menu appears and I can run the the "Test sub"
However as soon as I put this in the workbook where I want this to work it does not show the menu.
It is there though as when I step through the remove Sub I can see it matched and then deleted.
I thought at first it was protection but that is now removed but still no joy.
I can not see any setting that controls these sub menus.
I am writing some custom functions to be saved in an Add-In file, but am having trouble saving named ranges. I would like named ranges in the Add-In file to be available in other spreadsheets. Is there a way to do this? Or is there a way to take a range from Excel and save it into a globally available named range using VBA?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI would like to custom sort a table by ID, the first ID to be shown on top would be the ID the user enters in an inputbox. Below is the code I used but I don’t know why its not working:
Sub CustSort()
Dim MyCount As Integer
MyCount = Application.CustomListCount + 1
MyValue = InputBox("Enter ID")
Application.AddCustomList Array(MyValue)
ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Sort _
Key1:= Range("A1"), _
Order1:=xlAscending, _
Header:=xlYes, _
OrderCustom:=MyCount, _
MatchCase:=False, _
Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, _

find attached an example, try entering 300000 in the inputbox the custom sort doesn’t work
to complete the attached worksheet. My aim is to “bring” into the RANGE column the contents of corresponding cells in that column whose name is chosen in the Select dropdown. I suspect that one of these lookup and reference functions can do this task but am lost as to which one of them:

With page breaks in Excel, is it possible to have different pages span a different number of columns?
Right now, I have my page breaks laid out so I've got 3 separate pages. Currently, they are each 30 rows in height, and 30 columns in width.
However, I want the first one to be 20 columns wide, the second to be 30 columns wide and the third to be 40 columns wide.
If I try and drag the vertical blue bar, I adjust the column span for all 3 pages. I need a way to drag the vertical blue bar for each page separately.

I've got a few worksheets that have staff names on Col A. And these names are under sub headings of what position they work in (Foremen, Operatives etc..).
Before I had access to them, the names were not in order, now I've change it to A-Z, for each staff under their position.
I know you can make your own custom order list, so the list goes top to bottom : Supervisor, Formen, Operative, Office.
What I sometimes need to do is sort Col B or C. But is am unable to sort it back to it's original state
Attached is an example of how I would like my spreadsheets to look. But is there a way to use Sort & Filter so it sorts the entire table by position, keeping the correct name under the correct position heading.

I need to create a custom number format for a recorded delivery number in an excel sheet. I want it to look like AA 1234 1234 1GB in the cell even if the user enters it without spaces e.g. AA123412341GB.

I've been trying and trying but keep getting a message that I should use one of Excel's pre-defined formats.
What I have is a table with over 20 columns that I use to sort and AutoFilter the 200+ rows of data. Several of the columns use Data Validation which require data to be from lists.
So, my problem occurs when I add a new row of data... I don't want all the values in the row to be blank (Some values should never be blank... This is why Data Validation was used here). Is there any kind of New Entry feature or some easier way to enter a new row of data? I know some other Office applications that use an easy UI to 'fill in' data types when a new entry is added.
At the very least, since it might be the only plausible result, I'd like a new row of data to result to default values (i.e. the top value in the list) in the columns that have data validation since should not be accepting blank values.
Also, I am very good with formulas and finding my way around Excel's features, but I'm not very experienced with the VBA programming or custom macro-writing.
