I have a excel file in which , there is probably a macro which runs when i open the file. The macro checks for a particular file on the D: drive.
I want to delete this macro. The problem is i cannot delete this macro, as it is not appearing in the Macros List.
Also i know i can disable this macro, by pressing the shift key whenever the file is opened.
But i want to delete this macro permanently from this file. I have tried various options like pression Alt-F11 & to locate the macro in module etc & also tried to locate it in the Workbook open event handler. But I cant see the macro.
I am trying to set up an macro that runs when a workbook opens
I have placed the following code in the This Workbook Object
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Worksheets("Test").OnEntry = "Every_Update"
With ThisWorkbook Application.OnTime Now, "'" & .Name & "'!" & .CodeName & ".Workbook_Open2" End With End Sub
I am tyring to instruct Excel to run the macro "Every_Update" every time an entry is made in the worksheet "Test". This seems to fuction.
However, I have other code that I am tring to run in a a macro called "Workbook_Open2" That macro contains functions that are not yet loaded into Excel during the Auto open sequence. I was hoping that by calling the subroutine, it would allow the functions to be enabled. Basically the function that I a trying to get is to open up another excel file and read a cell.
The code above gives me an error - it cannot find "Workbook_Open2" Should this not be in a module?
However, this runs extremely slow. I had to stop it after about 10 min, as it only got to about row 1000 of 20,000.
Sub Delete_Dupes() Dim rw1 As Long: rw1 = 1 Dim rwx As Long: rwx = rw1 Dim stepx As Integer Dim co1 As Integer: co1 = 1 Dim co2 As Integer: co2 = 2 Dim bool1 As Boolean Dim bool2 As Boolean Dim bool As Boolean Dim count As Integer count = 0 Do Until Cells(rwx, co1) = "" stepx = 1 If rwx > rw1 Then On Error GoTo NewCrit bool1 = IsError(Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(Cells(rwx, co1), Range(Cells(rw1, co1), Cells(rwx - 1, co1)), 0)) bool2 = IsError(Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(Cells(rwx, co2), Range(Cells(rw1, co2), Cells(rwx - 1, co2)), 0)).................
I browsed the first few pages of searching for "row delete macro" and couldn't find anything that suited my needs very much, so here goes:
What I need to do is automatically delete rows where the entries in column B (date) and column E (string) are the same. It is a very large group of data, so filtering is not exacly an option here.
Here is the twist on it...
I have a column F that contains either "Accepted-Active" or "Accepted-Closed". If I delete a bunch of rows that contain the same column B and E entries, I want to save the row that contains "Accepted-Closed", otherwise I don't particularly care which of the rows is saved.
I am new to VBA & not sure of the full understanding of code copied from a workbook which worked on the same principle but with Monthly (12) tabs. I thought if modified to show weeks, the macro would be able to locate the current week tab & day/date within - but upon opening, the cell stops at WK19 & column O - rather than WK43, Column N (which changes daily).
I need the tabs of a project action log to auto-populate and auto-delete in a master log. (So when something is added or deleted in a tab it is added or deleted on the master) I use excel a little bit for work and personal finance purposes but I have zero experience with macros or VBA.
Within a data validation selection, are you able to do both Auto Complete and Auto Delete? I have this posted at another forum [url]but have not been able to find a solution (a copy of the file, test. zip is there as well). I am not sure it is possible, or, at least I have been unable to get it working. I can do each, but not both.
I want to create a macro that will “open the look in list” and stop so I can pick a file to open. I’ve tried to use “record a macro” and “ctrl-o”, but the record a macro won’t stop until I pick a file or cancel the file list. I also tried to use “o” in the short cut key box
I have a worksheet with 10 columns, and an ever number of growing rows.
What I would like to do is to Sort Column 'B', along with all the other respective data in the other columns, each time the spreadsheet opens. I would prefer to use VBA or some other auto-launching event.
I am currently using this code to place names in a combobox (active X). How can I use an array to perform each line to all 12 months without repeating the code over and over?Here is what I have:
I have a menu workbook with macro buttons that call different workbooks. Call the menu workbook (switchgear.xlsm). Switchgear contains 2 buttons. Button 1 closes switchgear and opens Book1. Button 2 closes switchgear and opens book 2.
If book1 is open and nothing has changed for 3 minutes I would like it to close and open switchgear.xlsm. I do not want it to just close in 3 minutes... I want it to close after 3 minutes of inactivity.
I have search all over and tried and tried to achieve this without success...
I have been able to get the timer to work but it gets caught in a loop. If I open book1 and close it in less than a min then 3 minutes later out of nowhere the code tries to run???
Secondly when this happens I see several book1 vba projects loaded in the editor window???
I have an excel file stored on a network drive for the purpose of information sharing. (File protected with a password)
But some the guys leave the file open for quiet long time and hence I cannot open the file for updating the data.
-I need to have a macro that runs every 5 minutes and displays an alert message saying "Please close the File" as long as the file is kept open.
-A second macro with a modified version of the above to close the file automatically after 5 minutes from file opening time after showing an alert message "You cannot leave the File Open, File is Closed Automatically!"
I have built a complex vba & multisheet spreadsheet that I am looking to secure against all the common attacks. So I have:A Workbook Open pw; VBA password (29 symbols/numbers/Caps/lower case) Very Hidden worksheets Hidden rows/columns Restricted scroll areas Workbook protection Code that auto protects all sheets upon opening Registry referencing in Workbook Open with timed closure if not matched Now I am on the last leg of implementing protection against Application.EnableEvents = False; force enabling of Macros and hiding of toolbars, scrollbars etc... Phew.
Soooo, in my research, I have learnt that if EnableEvents = False, Workbook_Open is essentially skipped and the security VBA routines are disabled. To get around, I have copied the entire contents of the Workbook_Open routine to a module under Auto_Open. The first line of both these scripts is: Application.EnableEvents = True.
Works! So far so good. However, I have a Msgbox prompt in the scripts that displays twice. So in essence, Excel is running Workbook Open first, then Auto Open second. If I open another instance of Excel and run Application.EnableEvents = False first before opening my spreadsheet, I only get one message. So only the Auto Open script runs.
I am trying to get my invoice sheet to automatically increment the invoice number when I open the workbook. I know it is in the code i.e. private sub? but it doesnt seem to work.
I did a macro on my mac to transfer a sheet from one workbook to another worbook. It works very well when the destination workbook is open. Therefore I wanted to add some piece of code to check if the destination workbook is open. If not then I wanted the macro to open it before tranfering the sheet. Here is the code I´m using for tranfering the sheet
Sub Transfer_Sluttet() If ActiveSheet.Index <> Sheets.Count Then Application.DisplayAlerts = False Set ws = ActiveSheet Sheets(ws.Index + 1).Delete ws.Move Before:=Workbooks("Sluttet.xls").Sheets("sheet2") 'Moves active sheet to beginning of named workbook. 'Replace Test.xls with the full name of the target workbook you want. Application.DisplayAlerts = True End If End Sub
This is the type of macro I useually use on my pc to check if a workbook is open and if not then open it

how to automatically complete with Excel the following task:
1. I have two email databases in Excel: a master database and opt-out database.
2. I need to remove from the Master database emails of opted-out people.
3. Since the databases are large, I'd like to use a relevant Excel function to do that automatically.:
In the master list (column B) I have all the emails from the Master list. I have copied in the column C of the Master list the emails of all who opted-out. I need to remove opted out emails (listed in column C) from the master email list (column B).
I have 2 open workbooks. I've picked up the filenames in VB.
One of them is strRemitN
Another one is strStateM
In strRemit i have invoice numbers (OP/I123456) in column A.
in strStateM the invoice numbers are in column C
How would i go around, in VBA, to search for the first invoice number from strRemitN to strStateM, delete the row, then go to the next, all the way to the bottom?
Dim intLRow as integer intLRow = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row

I have this piece of code which copies module1 from file1 to all other open files which I list below open.
I want to modify it so that it will delete module11 as it goes.
Dim FName As String Dim FName1 As String With Workbooks("CFADS01") 'copies from here FName = .Path & "code.txt" .VBProject.VBComponents("Module1").Export FName End With
'copies into these workbooks 'all workbooks need to be open
I want to delete a sheet in a macro but when I run the macro, I always get a message warning and I have to answer the msg box to delete the page. Below is the macro command I am using.
i'm looking for is that I have two lists via Data Validation, and when someone changes their selection in list A, i'd like for list B to auto-delete whatever value it had in it.
Also, on a different topic, i'd like to know how to hide certain sheets in a workbook from public view.
