View 4 Replies View RelatedProtect An Excel File From Being Copied To External Device
Mar 24, 2009I have a file used by our employees through our local area network. Because that file has many functions and possibilities that took us a lot of time to create, I would like to protect this file so no employee can copy it to an external device without a password. It would be great, though, if the file could be exchanged or sent among employees as logn as it remains WITHIN our internal network.
Is it technically possible to protect an Excel file in a such a way?
Timer- To Write Code Which Takes A Reading Off Of A Device Every .005 Seconds
Jun 22, 2007I am trying to write code which takes a reading off of a device every .005 seconds.
When I write the code as follows to take the reading every .004 seconds things work well.
PauseTime=5
Start = Timer
Oldtime=Timer
Do While Timer < Start + PauseTime
If Timer > Oldtime + .004 Then
Oldtime = Timer
Read(count) = Orbit.Networks(0).Modules(0).ReadCurrent
count = count + 1
End If
Loop
Finish = Timer
If however in the above code I only change .004 to .005 instead of taking readings every .005 seconds, I end up with readings roughly .015 seconds apart (approx)
Is there something unstable about the timer function to do this? Is there a different way to get a more stable result?
Error Checking Routine - Check Range Values On Various Worksheets And Report If Error
May 29, 2014Error Check Marco.xlsm
see attached example. I am trying to write an error detection routine that iterates through worksheets that have numeric values for names (ignore text names or alphanumeric). Macro checks range on each numeric worksheet E3:E33 and is supposed to report back on the SummarySheet if any value other than 1 or 0 is found in range E3:E33 on any numeric-name worksheet. Code as follows:
[Code] ....
Problem is that it just reports EVERY worksheet as having an error when clearly most don't (none do I think in the attached example).
Try changing some of ranges E3:E33 to values other than 1 or 0, it still reports all sheets. Why the macro does not evaluate the range E3:E33 properly and just reports every worksheet as having an error?
Two Cells Which Have Formulas Stopping Error Messages Show An Error When Added
Nov 9, 2009See the attached sheet. I am trying to add together two figs which are linked to calculations which have formula built in to stop error messages when there is a 0 / 0 = #value type error. However when these two cells are added, if the cells are blank I get an error message. And if only one cell has a value, I get "" with my existing formula. what I need to do to get a result of 7 if for example cell A4 = "" + B4 =7. At the moment my formula shows "" in the sum total of these cells
View 5 Replies View RelatedBoolean Type Mismatch Error - On Error Resume Next Doesn't Work?
Apr 1, 2013OK, so I have a userform with some text boxes that I have specially formatted to accept only date values in the form of mm/dd/yy. By default they are blank. I have a check in one of my codes that looks like this
Code:
If DateBox vbNullString And DateValue(DateBox) > checkdate Then
M1 = "NEOPRENE" & Chr(13)
Else
M1 = "" & Chr(13)
End If
Where DateBox is this specially formatted TextBox and checkdate is a future date being checked against.So if DateBox has a value in it AND that value is greater than the date being checked against the returend string is Neoprene, otherwise it is blank.
Well the problem I have is when the first condition returns FALSE, i.e. when DateBox is empty, the DateValue half still gets evaluated and returns a type missmatch error or something like that because DateValue("") returns an error. I have line of code 8 times, one for Neoprene, squeegee, etc. So the name of the text boxes are each unique and I am using M1, M2, M3, etc.
For other reasons, use of "On Error Resume Next" doesn't work for this situation because it causes a result opposite to what I want to happen.

Vba Macro Error: Compile Error Named Argument Not Found

It looks like Excel is getting hung up on the "SearchFormat:=" portion of the code.
Error Handling - Only Want To Check The Error On Single Line?
Sep 12, 2012So the issue I am having is that I have a worksheet with two long rows of value. If the user enters the incorrect value, the program gives a error case of 1004. If and when this error occurs I want the program to send a MessageBox to the user then end the program. The problem that I am running into is that whenever I write On Error Goto... It Goes to the label whenever any runtime error occurs. My belief is that there has to be a way to only check for a runtime error on a single line of code rather than the entire sub.

I need to repeat these same steps (seen for row 5 below) for rows 5 to 50. My script worked until I hit row 35 and then I got the "compile error.." message.

I have tried returning err.source but I am either not using it correctly or it isn't intended to be used this way.

UserForm: File/Path Access Error & I/O Error
Dec 19, 2006the spreadsheet needs to be copied to a directory called "C:downloads" as it contains a ODBC query to itself (In reality, this is a query to an External Oracle Database)
On loading, it should pop up a simple userform, with a combo and two command buttons, which when pressed takes you to a (hidden) tab that displays a pivottable.
All works well until I try to close /save when 60% of the time, Excel encounters problems and closes and will not load up the file the next time until either quit excel or disable macros. Messages include "file/path access error", "I/O Error" or get restarts excel.
On a casual run through, I expect you might report back that "All worked ok for me". Please can you give it a bit of a thrashing, comment out the userform show, save the file (frequently) becuase i assure you it will break ultimately!
This is a brand-new file and I've tried it on about 5 different PC running different versions of Excel and generally get the same result.

View 6 Replies View RelatedError On Close - Error "an Error Log Has Been Generated"?
Oct 20, 2006I have a very simple spreadsheet that generates a "backing page" for items to be physically pasted to (essentially nothing more than printing a header). I have the following code under "This Workbook" to avoid being prompted to save changes when closing, as this spreadsheet is just a template and changes should not be saved...
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
ActiveWorkbook.Close False
End Sub
The code does as is intended, but, if any other spreadsheets are open at the same time, I get an error message pop-up saying "EXCEL has encountered an error - an error log has been generated"... Excel then shuts down. So, first question; where should I look for the error log?

Jul 6, 2006The code thats generating the error is the following:
For Y = 8 To 131
TmpDate = Empty
Range("A1").Value = "=" + Path + Sheet + "B" + CStr(Y)

For Langd = 1 To Len(TmpDate)

TmpComp = Empty
If Len(Dag) = 1 Then
Dag = "0" + CStr(Dag)
End If
Macro continues before the Next-statement...
(it might not be good programming, but I think it should work).
A little explanation to the code.
I have a spreadsheet located on the intranet that has values I need in my spreadsheet. These figures are sorted by date, so I search for the date to find the right figures.
The line Range("A1").Value = "=" + Path + Sheet + "B" + CStr(Y)
works prefectly. I can see the value in my spreadsheet in the cell A1. its the next line that causes the error "Type mismatch".
The value I get from the intranet spreadsheet looks similar to this:
"1 Jul 2006 " (note all the spaces).
What I do is just run it through a loop and cut of all spaces so it will look like this: "1Jul2006" to be sure I dont miss a space or anything.
Now to the funny part.
The error only happens at runtime on the first go.
If I chose to END the macro then and there, and then run it again from the top it works perfectly.
If I set a stopsign to debug the code, it works perfectly on the first go too.
Can anyone explain to me why that happens??
I know enough about programming to handle my syntax errors and so on, but I cant see anything wrong in this one...
Please note that this isnt the the entire code.
I'm building a report on 12 diffrent spreadsheet. The main macro is almost 2000 rows of code, and it call other Subs too (because of limitations in the VBA-editor. A macro cant to be too big), so its impossible for me to post the entire macro...

Error Handler's: To Error Or Not To Error
May 11, 2006What I'm wondering is when it is a good idea to use Error Handler's. I've got maybe 50 procedures in the project I'm working on. Some of the procedures are merely parent procedures calling other procedures. Since other people will be using this workbook, I want there to be a way to troubleshoot if errors occur, but it almost seems bad form to have an Error Handler for EVERY single procedure. Conversely, somehow, someone always finds a new and creative way to error out my workbook, and they don't understand the code and/or are not VBA literate. I can always fix afterwards, but solving the problem immediately over the phone is not ideal. I'm very new to debugging for other users. The workbook is currently in constant development/improvement used by only a handfull of users, but eventually it will need to be at some decent release stage, where the VBA code will be password protected, and I will not want the user getting into the code.
