I would like to have a dialog box "popup" if the value of two cells do NOT equal.
cell C11 has net sales values for the day, including cash, checks, and credit cards. After sub total of these values, I subtract any charges(voids) and get a total(c11). I enter a sales(c12), tax(c13), no tax(C14), misc. amounts(C15 & C16) ,reductions(c21) and put the total in Cell C22 with the formula =Sum(c12:c16)-c21). Because I do not want the formula overwritten, I protect the sheet including the amounts in cell c11 and c22. If they do "Not" match I would like a dialog box to appear so the error can be corrected.
When a user tries to save a workbook I want the workbook to display the Save As dialog box. This will ensure that the template is not accidentally tempered with.

The file I am trying to view is saved as follows: C: Test.gif
What I have done.Added a image control to a dialog box, called image1
Added the following event handler to image1:
x = c: test.gif
Image1.picture = loadpicture (X)Pressed F5 to test the code and brings up a dialog box with a blank image box.
Not called the userform in the main module (didn't seem much point considering the test failed)
My questions
where I am going wrong with this, the correct code?
Also in inputting the address of the file I could not use the C: format as this brought up an error. What is the correct format?
I have the a spreadsheet with macro which copies the first sheet and renames. This I have working OK. I then have within this macro the following code to delete the contents of a cell (the date) and have the macro open a Input box and enter that date in the same cell. If no date is entered in the Input Box, then I want todays date entered.
The date from the Input Box works except every second sheet created reverts from the date format dd/mm/yy to mm/dd/yy.
If no date is entered in the dialog box, todays date does not activate.
I have checked the formatting of the cell and windows.
ActiveSheet.Unprotect ("Password")
ActiveSheet.Range("J281").ClearContents
ActiveSheet.Range("J281") = InputBox("Enter Date if not todays date", "Type:")
If Range("J281") = "" Then
Range("J281") = Date
End If
ActiveSheet.Protect ("Password")
Is there any way to format a cell so that text entered will always display in caps?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI enter in numbers, eg: 1, 2, 10, 24, 100, 1000 in a consecqutive cell range
They display as: 0.01, 0.02, 0.1, 0.24, 1, 10. Default cell format is general. If I change cell format to Number (with default display of 2 decimal points) it displays: 0.01, 0.02, 0.10, 0.24, 1.00, 10.00. If I also specify no decimal points, it displays: 0,0,0,0,1,10
The only way I can get the numbers I enter to display (and store) as 1,2,10,24, 100, 1000 is to change cell format to text and THEN retype th numbers into the cells. But, then it creates the green error comment in top left of each cell.
Is it possible to format a cell so that it displays 6x 0's after the number?
I.e. If cell A1 contains the number 14, id like it to display 14000000
However, that 14 million is a monetary value, so I would want it to also display $ , & .
If I change the number the following week to 21, it automatically becomes $21,000,000.00
Ive tried formatting it as a custom, but that only seems to had 6x 0's before the number
Can i put into the cells B38-AF38, that would display the sum of B20:AF20 + B24:AF24 + B28:AF28 + B32:AF32 +B36:AF36 in a h:mm format.
When imputing the data into a cell in a h:mm format, I need it to display in that cell and formula bar the h:mm format without having to put an apostrophe in front of "h" or ":mm" value. Once complete, this form is going to go to other trainers to use on their computers and I dont think they would remember to keep putting an apostrophe before the data.
Example:
B20= 1:15 (1h15m) NOT 1:15:00 AM
B24= :30 (30min)
B28= :45 (45min)
B32= 1:45 (1h45m) NOT 1:45:00 AM
B38= 4:15 (4h15min)
I have attached a copy of the form for better clarification.
It doesnt seem to be complicated, but it's certainly a lot more than I thought.
I have a range from a column in my Excel table that is formatted ##-##/##. A number like 1.125 would look like 1-1/8.
I also have some values that are text, such as: #6 (I'm working with threads). I use # because it is not the same thing as 6, which could be 6 millimeters or 6 inches.
In combo box on my userform it just shows the decimal values of the range. How can I format the combobox to match Excel?
I have set up a UserForm containing a ComboBox, listing all suppliers. Upon invocation, the form becomes visible and the user enters a letter on the CB window, to which the CB displays the first entry starting with the user's input.
What I'd like to do is to have the CB expand its window, so that upon entering a letter the window shows something like, say, 5 entries, of which the top one is the first occurrence starting with that letter. Normally, clicking on the down arrow would do that, but I wonder if I can save them the keystroke.
I am trying to format cells so when i type in 343 it will display as 3:43 like a clock, i have tried all the time formats and they all read back to me as 0:00 or as 12:00, is there a macro or a formula i am missing?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am having a data of about 500 students and
each student has 6 subjects A,B,C,D,E,and F. Now the thing is that it is not necessary that a
student must give all papers to pass in exam, it depends on what options the student has
selected. We have made a table in a form given below
RollNO. Name. A Mark Grade B Mark Grade and so on till F Mark Grade.
In the next sheet we have used the function V lookup and printed a format of marksheet as
follows:
Roll No.
Name
Subject Marks Grade
A
B
C
D
E
F
ALL USING VLOOKUP
Vlookup Vlookup Vlookup
so when in the next sheet we enter the roll no. the name field and the subject marks and grade
field all Come automatically, now let me tell u the exact problem, if a student has not given C
and E subject, because of Vlook up function ans using if function the fields in place of C and E
subject are left blank and the marksheet is not looking good. Now what i want is that if a
student has not given C paper the subject, mark and grade of D paper should come in place of C
paper place,, so that there would be no gap.. if a student has only attempted paper F instead of
I want a dialog box to have a label box reference a cell within a work sheet. This referenced cell contains a formula linked to other cells so it will change value.
I'm in the process of setting up an Excel document and I need to be able to have it display dates in a specific format. I need it to express just a month and year such that the month is represented by a letter (A thru L) and the year is expressed as its last two digits such as in the these examples:
May 2012 = E12
Mar 2009 = C09
Nov 2011 = K11 etc.
I want the date to come out in this format regardless of how the user enters it.
I need to show data across the page, currently the data is arranged in column's, I need it displayed in row's.
Each material has a number of components, it is the components which I want to show across the page, with the different headings.

Note the spreadsheet I will be working on has thousands of materials and hundreds of components.task.xls
I'm trying to avoid using merged cells or text wrapping with altered row height to display some text in multiple rows - similar to using centre across selection to have a header across multiple columns without merging. The guys that use the sheet type a comment that is relevant to five rows and the easy solution here would be to just type the first portion of the comment in the first row (about 30 characters will display in the column width available), then put the next 30 characters in the next row and so on but the guys keep getting lazy and merging the cells so they can type the comments more easily. I can lock the sheet or force validation but I think there's a better solution.
I can effectively "wrap" the text across the five rows the header is relevant to by using a formula to pick up everything except the first 30 characters of each cell. Ie if they type whatever they want in cell B16 then I can use this formula to break it in to 30 character lengths to "wrap" it in to the next four rows:
=IF(LEN(B17)>30,RIGHT(B17,(LEN(B17)-30)),""),
And I'm sure it would be easy enough to use search with the formula to break it where there is a space in the text so partial words don't flow over.
BUT because the text ends up slightly different widths I want to use formats to force only 30 characters to display (whilst keeping the remainder of the text string intact). I can't figure out the syntax to format only 30 text characters to display but you can easily do it with numbers and dates and so on.
A particular textbox in myuserform requires a displayed format of 000.000. I would like the user to enter a no less, and no more, than 6 digits. On tab, the textbox displays that value in the preferred format.
eg. enter 123456, TAB, results in textbox display of 123.456
I have tried ...
Code:
[Private Sub freq_AfterUpdate()
freq = Format(freq, "000.000")
End Sub
But this results in 123456.000
Example:....
i m wanting Cell B1 to display true if any of the values in column C match otherwise I want to display false.
A 1
B 0
C 0
D 0
But I can't determine how to get this done.
Is there a way to use the open dialog box (like as if you where opening another workbook) and then with the selected item inster the path and file name into a cell.

I'm writing a macro that will automatically change the display in a column of cells.
The input in the cell would be a decimal value, (e.g. 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2). As of now, I think the only input options are whole numbers and 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 fractions.
After inputting the decimal value, the cell should update to display the value as the following string format :
Input: 1.25
Displays: 1-1/4"
The purpose being to enable fast data entry while displaying in the desired format.
Here is where I know to begin for the automatic update:
Code:
Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.EnableEvents = False
'
'
'Code
'
'
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
What I am trying to do is display my output in currency format. The catch is that the values I am using are not from cells, they are from text boxes that are locked on a user form. The first text box is a base rate with a value of "$2000.00". Second comes a quantity text box with an integer value of let's say "3". Last comes a markup rate which is a text box with a rate of ".10". The calculation is fine, it although it returns "$6600" when it is critical that I display the two decimal places at the end. Here is my code for the calculation:
Me.txtAirfare.Text = "$" & frmAirfare.txtBaseRate.Value * frmAirfare.txtQuantity.Value * (1 + frmAirfare.txtMarkup.Value)
dates column displays numbers even though the format in the format cell options is date format.
the number updates to date format only when i do F2 & enter for each cell. i've about 5000 cells with same problem. how cani do them all in a go instead of doing themone for a time.

I would like to have a single button that changes a range of cells from the USD to EURO to perhaps CAD symbol. Can this operation be performed, such that if I start in dollars, and I click the button once, it shifts by range to EURO (not formulas...just symbol)...and then if I click the same button again, it goes to CAD, and then back to USD with a third click?

I have a column in excel which gets populated in the format "2/1/1980" when copied from a different source. I want a macro to run on this column and convert this in the below format. Required format: '02-01-80 (note the ' symbol before 02 which will keep it as text)
Existing ----> Required
2/1/1980 --> '02-01-80
2/1/1970 --> '02-01-70
2/1/1983 --> '02-01-83
I need this macro to run on two columns and replace them with the required format. I can do a find and replace either in the sheet or through hard coding the VBA, but as the date format keeps growing, I would need to do this via code and hence requesting the same.
I received a request from a coworker regarding custom formatting some numbers in his spreadsheet. Those numbers are serial numbers of 20 characters long. Sometimes in my files I use this custom number formatting ###0 and its enough for the data I handle. But when I tried to use it in his spreadsheet, the following shows:
8456891070060510000
The cell must look like this: 08456891070060510302
The reason to have it like this is due to a Delivery Program requirement to deliver Set-top Units for repair. The Delivery Program do not recognize other format than the above. My coworker takes the data from a spreadsheet, and the spreadsheet needs a custom number format to display the correct number.
find a custom number format to be able to display as my coworker need it??
