I have a spreadsheet which has a sales report for 100 stores. When a store opens the spreadsheet they login using a username and password on a userform. This then filters the report and brings up there respective line. The stores have to fill in certain cells on there line. I want to display an alert if they forget to fill in a cell when they login.
View 2 RepliesMy is updated very frequently and i just wonder if it is possible to display the last filled cell of a certain column in another cell.
Imagine column B (B5:B1253) is filled with average sales values by using formula "B$5:B5" and i want to display the most uptodate average value in cell B1.
Is it possible to display text based on the contents of another cell?
I am creating a report that includes all our data for the year per month - this builds dynamically every time i create the next months report.
So far i have data for,
Column A-- Column B
Jan - have data
Feb - have data
March - have data
April - no data yet...
In this example i would want the following text to appear in another cell,
Statistics: January - March 2007
It would dynamically update to January - April 2007... once April cell had data.
It's probably very easy but after several attempts i can't get it working as such.
I have created a program to display an Alert based on a Date. I have this program enlcosed in the Workbook Open event. I need to popout this alert everyday, everytime EXCEL starts on a computer.
I had something in my mind though - I thought of plonking this program into the Workbook Open event of the Personal.xls workbook for a computer and thereby I could have achieved my requirement of popping out this alert everytime when Excel starts. However, there is one problem here. Every 3 to 5 days the dates in the workbook are going to change and I do not want the user to tamper with Personal.xls on his / her computer.
So I gave it a second thought. I created a shortcut of this workbook and placed it in the XLSTART folder for a computer and now the problem is - it opens the workbook itself rather than popping out the alert whenever Excel starts on the computer. So this would not work too.
Is there any other way I can make the alert pop out everytime I start Excel on a computer ?
I just discovered VBA coding today and was wondering if I could use it as an audio alert. I found a couple examples online but don’t understand the coding language of excel. I have a feed link from my trading platform to excel that feeds in live data. What I would like to do is have an alert for when Range ("C4").select is >=1000 Alert Ring.wav and when Range ("C4").select is <=-1000 Alert Chimes.wav.

Is it possible for someone with macro skills to create a macro to run in a worksheet so that if she enters a number in a given column more than once an alert box appears to tell her. I've summarised the 'rules' below*
*Can is be written so that I can edit which column the alert is based on?
[In (for example) column F is a list of invoice numbers - all unique]
If user types a number in column F that matches a number that already exists, show alert box "THERE APPEARS TO BE A DUPLICATE ENTRY IN COLUMN F"

Ideally there would on be an “OK” option only by way of acknowledgement and also no option to close the message by the ‘x’ in top right corner.
Each month I get a report that I process using a macro. The problem is that each month the name of the file changes and is different. When I run the macro and it crashes I have to de-bug by going through the code to change all references to the file name from the the previos run and change to the latest file name and then re-run the macro. There must be a better way.
I would like to learn the code that sees the open book and then refers to it for the run.
What is the best way to do this?
I have a userform which opens when the workbook opens. Ideally Id like to have the userform open without the workbook coming up and have the workbook close when you close the userform. If thats not doable then is there a way to just close the workbook when the userform is closed?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am wanting to have certain cells of data from one worksheet appear on another worksheet once the cells on the first sheet have data entered in them.
I find that I can do a simple formula to copy the cell but I want the cell to remain blank until data is added in the first sheet (it will be a mix of text and numerical entries).
I have a spreadsheet with 6 hidden columns (B to G). Rows 1 to 14 are frozen and have data that comes from another work book and these rows will be protected. The user will enter data from H14 to U14 and then H15 to U15 for the next row and so on down the sheet. The number of rows of data over a week is variable, a minimum of 21 rows (3 per day) but no maximum.
When the user starts entering new data in the column range H to U I would like to automatically populate the 6 hidden cells on that row with information from particular cells in protected rows 1 to 14. For example B14 would populate with the value from I4, C14 would populate with the value from I5, D14 from I6, E14 from I7 and so on whenever someone enters a value anywhere from H14 through to U14.
I can understand that a worksheet change event would be useful to do this but I guess then it wouldn't want to run every time each cell is populated so I think if it had to activate on a single cell change then the cell in column L would be best. Also, as I understand it, there can be only one block of code per sheet that operates on a worksheet change event, have I got that right? If that is the case then I assume all the code to populate the hidden cells on each row will need to be in this block of code.
I have data entered in rows 2:10. The amount of data is variable for each row. For example, in row 2, columns A:F are filled out, and the rest (G:P) are blank. In row 3, columns A:J are filled out and K:P are blank. The data is always entered from left to right, and to a maximum up to column P. Hope this makes sense.
In column Q, I want to write a formula that will tell me the last filled column of that row (A=1, B=2, C=3, etc.). So in Q2 would display 6. Row 3 would display 10. And so on.
I've attached a simple spread which gets across the main problem. i need the totals row (currently row 7) to drop down a cell each time the data base above has an extra row added to it its pretty much a cosmetic issue but it can be useful on hugely long spreads.

I want to create a room reservation sheet, based on the following:
December
Room 1
Room 2
08:00 am
09:00 am
10:00 am
Where the blank cells should be filled with a color (red, blue, anything), based on another sheet that tells me i.e that the room 1 is occupied from 09:00 to 10:00 and room 2 from 08:00 to 09:00 am.
How could i change this formula so
If the previous cell "filled with a number" in column D is equal to C17 Then C18 otherwise c17
This is the formula
This formula is in D38
=IF(DAY(A38)=DAY($C$13),$C$17,)
This formula is in D65
I also need to apply the same to this formula
=IF(MOD(ROW(A38)-MATCH($C$13,A:A),7)=1,$C$17,)
I'm an intermediate Excel user that can navigate around pretty well, but now my boss wants me manipulate Excel in such a way that I cannot figure out how to do.
He wants the worksheet to be "locked" so that I cannot select another or "the next" cell unless the active cell I'm in has something entered into it. The purpose of this is so that when a manager is buying off (proofing and approving) my work, he can't put his initials in a cell next to the purchased item unless the cell that decribes the purchaed item is filled in. I'm not exactly sure what terminology to use when describing this, so forgive me if I'm being vague.
Can I restrict a user from "moving on" to another cell unless the active cell is filled in? And if so, how do I do this?
Is there any formula or macro that can be used to detect the value of the last filled in cell in a column or row? For example, I fill in column B each day with a new numerical variable, so on day one B1 = 100, on day 2 B2 = 200, on day 3 B3 = 150 and so on. I would like the last variable entered in column B to appear in, for example, cell A1. Is there any way to do that?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have written several pieces of VBA code which produce a sequence of tables on a single worksheet (with the rather original title "Tables"). The code often adds tables to the end of the current set of tables, and to do this, I need to know where the next available space is.
I have a solution which I have been using for ages now, which checks each cell in an appropriate column until a sequence of 3 blank cells has been found as I can guarentee that the tables are at most 2 cells apart. It then sets i=i-3 to give me the location of the first empty cell.
Blankcount = 0
i = 3
While Blankcount < 3
If Cells(i, 3) = "" Then
Blankcount = Blankcount + 1
Else
Blankcount = 0

When the graph is created, I would like to see times 8-9 and 9:30-10 filled (or, charted, or, however I should phrase it) and time 9-9:30 left blank (to represent that no work was done).

View 14 Replies View RelatedI would like the users to have the option of filling in the cells with "RED" by any means.
Here are the conditions or pseudo
If (any cell in Column X is RED)
Then (copy the row to Copy Rows Filled With Red)
If ( the cell in Column X is not longer RED)
Then (remove the row from Copy Rows Filled With Red)
In plain English, if the cell is filled with RED, it is copied over to sheet Copy Rows Filled With Red. Or if the cell is no longer filled with RED, it is removed from Copy Rows Filled With Red.
