I am using the Worksheet_Change function behind a worksheet that executes some code every time a change is made on the worksheet.
ie.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
End Sub
Is it possible to disable this function while running another macro? Therefore, when I enable Screen.Updating, the Worksheet_Change function will not be triggered.
I've several check boxes on a worksheet. Some of the check boxes control the values of other through the _click event. However, when I try to change the value the event attached to the control in questions fires.
application.enableevents = False
would prevent events being fire from within the macro but this only seems to work when I step through the code.
I understand that I could set a global variable to do this and will probably go down this route anyway - but I am interested to know how/when I should be using the EnableEvent method (as I am sure this should be the way that I use it)
I have a "Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)" in a worksheetsheet code.
I would like to turn this procedure off while I run another routine and then turn it back on after the routine has run.
I have some code in the BeforeClose event of the workbook - it worked the first time I tried to shut down the wb, but never since. I opened a new wb and copied in the code and again, it worked first time, but not since. The code is just calling a function, nothing heavy. I've tried the Deactivate event as well. I'm more of an Access VBA kind of gal, so don't know if I'm missing something big here.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a UserForm with a Text Box, I populate that Text Box with a number (say 5) and then the following code runs:
Code:
Private Sub tbOverrideMokWh_Change()
Application.EnableEvents = False: Application.ScreenUpdating = False

After the Sub is run 1 time, it runs again. Why? I've disabled Events?
I am trying to create a macro based on events. The event should be triggered as soon as the user leaves the cell by clicking on a different cell or by using the arrows on the keyboard. So if the user type SONY in cell A1, A2-A10 will be populated right on the spot automatically based on the word Sony, for example A2 will have electronic populated automatically, A3 will have Japan...and so on
If the user enter GMC instead in cell A1, A2-A10 will be populated right on the spot automatically based on the word GMC. A2 will have Automaker populated automatically, A3 will have USA, ...and so on.
After I created a small VB sample it looks like I need to press the execute button every time to run the program in VB instead of triggering an event automatically.
Here is a small sample I am using to test:
Sub test()
If Range("a1").Value = 10 Then
Range("c1").Value = "Yes"
Else
Range("c1").Value = "No"
End If
End Sub
Currently I have been tasked with trying to develop a link between an excel spreadsheet and outlook. What they want is for a button to pickup new entries into the sheet and then create outlook events based on several criteria. The first been that is put on several shared calendars, second that the category of the event is call "BID" and gold in color. The last part is where specific information from the spreadsheet fits into the event areas (ie. subject, location, start time, body). I did find code that is a possible solution but manipulating it to what i need. Here is the code.
Code:
Option Explicit
Sub AddToOutlook()
Dim OL As Outlook.Application
[Code]....
As you can see for the most part I have been able to fill in most of the program with what i needed. I have column B on the sheet that has r's on it. If there is an r in that column then the macro creates information from that row, else it skips to the next one. so i need a loop. Also like stated above, how do you make it an event and not a meeting, how do you set the category and lastly for the boy how do i set it so it copies the entire row (column A, Column C to Column L)?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a question concerning Macros and the Disable/Enable prompt. My boss has a spreadsheet which has been used for years and he recently wanted to and did remove the macros from the spreadsheet (they were no longer necessary), but the disable/enable prompt still appears when the spreadsheet is opened. I replicated this in a test spreadsheet with a simple insert line macro and received the same results. Is there a way to remove the macros and the disable/enable prompt once they are removed? I know about setting the security to low to not see the prompt, but I would think that once the macros are deleted, the prompt should not appear any more.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am aware that I can use single changing events in worksheet change events. For instance, if column 1, or A is changed, do something. This is only a single If statement, i.e. either the condition is true, or not. What I am not sure is if I can use two changing events, i.e. two conditions. For e.g. I would like if Column A value is X and Column B is "Active", action it, but only if two conditions are true.
For.e,g. The below syntax does not work. If it is only column A, it does work, but I want both A and B to be true, then copy and paste the target does not anything.
VB:
If Target.Column = 1 Then
If Target.Column = 2 Then
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A2:A" & Rows.Count)) Is Nothing Then
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B2:B" & Rows.Count)) Is Nothing Then
If Target.Value = "X" And Target.Value = "Active" Then

Now I want to disable the above such that I am able to add an Apostrophe ( ' ) in front of every line of this Macro. Is there a shortcut for this or do I need to Manually add apostrophe in front of every line? And then after disabling if I need to re-enable it is there a shortcut to that too?
from 1 sheet i am opening several other worksheets and read in the bits i want.
i am finding that on occasions the workbook_open on these sheets is causing great performance issues because of the calc mode set to automatic in the open routine of the individual sheets. i dont need it to be set to auto but the sheet owners perfer it to be set like this and i cant turn it off their sheets. is ther a way of opening a workbook from a macro and then override its workbook_open routine?
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(sSourceFolder & "" & "mySheet.xls", False, True)
i cant find any other switches that i could use to disable this.
Here in our department we made a pretty elaborate macro that takes a report and sorts them out to 17 different sheets in a one workbook. This Macro pulls a file from a specific location on our server and then opens the CSV sorts it out color codes all the important information and saves it back onto the server under you specific initials.
They are four PC's along with our Managers laptop that run this Macro daily.
About 3 weeks ago my Managers laptop stops running the Macro completely and hangs in the middle of the whole thing. Eventually crashing Excel.
We try to remove the modules and re-import them back into the personal macro workbork but this does not work. The Macro's did not change and still fully function on the other four desktops to this day.
I uninstall Office on my Managers laptop and reinstall. Import the Modules again and still hangs up in very same spot it did 3 weeks ago.
I've tried to lower the macro security to the lowest level also and I've still had no luck with this laptop. I don't understand. The Macro's function perfectly on other PC's but will not function on this laptop.
I have a Sheet sheet1 and I want to run a macro when the cell D2 in Sheet1 is equal to 10,7,5,and 3. I only want this macro to run when those values are reached the macro then puts the data onto a sheet called wps. The macro is run as a module and is a sub macro.

This code is supposed to apply the TRIM function to every worksheet in the workbook when the user presses save, and the saves the results. I understand the Private Sub bit is the code to have the macro run during the save, but for some reason the macro itself isn't actually running. I'm not getting any error message, its just that the cells which should have the TRIM function applied to them aren't being corrected.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have 3 different sheets with a private sub on each all labelled
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
The macro's runs fine on each page.
I want to put a macro on a separate sheet that i can run each of those macro's
I did initially copy the original private macro and change the
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
to
sub report()
But I couldn't do all 3 in the same manner. i did change each name to something different... the other 2 subs did run, but they didn't do anything except put the massage box on the end saying that "the macro has finished".
The private macros are on sheets 26, 28 and 12.
I have 7 different workbooks as part of my daily routine.
At present the first workbook is opened via the task scheduler, and the macro is run using the following code
[Code] .....
This then opens the next workbook and closes the current one. The next workbook then runs its macro again from a timed call
[Code] ...........
This repeats for 7 workbooks. The problem is, if a macro overruns - the whole schedule is out of sync when macro's are called depending on the time. What I would like to do, is link each macro by calling for the next one, and closing the current workbook. However, when i have tried to do this, the macro has always stopped when the workbook has been closed - the next macro doesn't run.
