Workbook To Open Only If Macros Are Enabled

Mar 29, 2009

I have created an Excel Workbook and this Workbook has a VBA code that enforces an expiry date of the workbook (TimeBomb from cpearson.com). So, if the expiry date has passed, the workbook will not open. But since it is VBA related, the expiry date will work only if one has enabled macros. If macros are disabled, the workbook will open regardless of the date.

So, is there a way for Excel to check if macros are enabled? and is there a way for Excel not to open the workbook, if the macros are disabled?

Can't Open An Excel Workbook With Macros

Nov 2, 2008

My son just upgraded my computer from 2000 to xp - a new application on a new hard drive. in the process, Excel was upgraded from 97 SR-1 to 97 SR-2.

My checkbook is on excel, and I really need to open it! We just moved to a new location, with the typical problems with email, internet etc.

I can open workbooks without macros. But I cannot open any with macros.

I get this message:
"Could not register the Visual Basic environment."

When that window is closed, the next one says:
"An error occured when initializing the VBA libraries (126)"

Open Workbook, Disable Macros

Apr 22, 2006

Is it possible to open a workbook via vba, but disable the macros? I know this sounds strange, but the workbook is coded to prevent users from saving it, and the only way to save it is to either open it with macros disabled or change the variable OKtoSave to true, but the variable is global only to the sheet and I can't find a way to change it through a macro written in my personal.xls workbook.

Force Macros Enabled On Workbook Open?

Oct 28, 2013

I'm posting a workbook on our network that I want to enable users to go in and update. I have the workbook designed, with entry fields for the data they need to enter, and they then push "Submit" to submit the new data to a hidden tracking log within the workbook.

Many of the users will be complete Excel newbies, and although I haven't posted the workbook yet, I am trying to anticipate possible issues. The first that comes to mind is that the user opening the workbook may not have macros enabled in their version of Excel, and they will get a message, and can't perform the udpate. Is there a way to add a Workbook Open event that automatically enable macros in the workbook when they open it, even if it is for this workbook only?

Open A Workbook And Run 1 Of 4 Macros Based On 3 Cell Values

Jul 30, 2009

I'd like to automatically run 1 of 4 macros depending on some criteria. Every workbook created has, unfortunately, the same worksheet name, so that leaves the only differences between the 4 possible loaded workbooks in the cells area and even those can be similiar in many ways. But....I found some criteria to separate all 4 workbooks...Here they are...

run macro 1 if this

1. Worksheet name says "Screen"
2. Cell H1 has the word "Lead"


run macro 2 if this

1. Worksheet name says "Screen"
2. Cell B1 has the word "records" somewhere in the cell
3. Cell H1 has the word "Lead"


run macro 3 if this

1. Worksheet name says "Screen"
2. Cell B1 has the word "records" somewhere in the cell
3. Cell N2 has the word "Delivered"

run macro 4 if this

1. Worksheet name says "Screen"
2. Cell B1 has the word "records" somewhere in the cell
3. Cell N2 has the word "Bevel"

I don't know if this can be done, but if so, that would be fantastic! I'm thinking that the macro would have to be "global" and in the user's personal workbook?

Prompt Open Closed Workbook Then Copy Range And Paste Special Into Open Workbook

Apr 6, 2013

I have created a spreadsheet some time ago and have been asked to improve on it but I'm rusty with VBA.

I have an automated ordering system that saves each sent order as the date e.g "05-04-2013.xls" but the management team want a graph with the data for the last 4 weeks compared. I have created a seperate workbook called "consumables report.xls" which has a column with the products listed followed by columns "Quantity" and "cost" which is repeated for the 4 weeks of the month.

I want to add a button to prompt the user to choose the saved order e.g "05-04-2013.xls" (all orders saved in same directory) to copy and paste the quantity and cost columns (c8,D69) into "consumables report.xls". I got this to work earlier but it would only paste the formulas and not the values. So I need

A prompt to open workbook
Copy range (c8,d69)
Close work sheet
Paste special .value (c8,D69)

I dont care if it has to open the workbook to copy the data as this will only be used once a month so it dosnt matter how slow the code is.

week 1 week 2 week 3 week 4
Product
quantity
cost
quantity
cost
cost
quantity
cost

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8

Make Workbook Open- Open Correct Month Workbook

Jul 8, 2006

I have Monthly sales sheets that import my cash register data into them. I wanted to set them up to do everything without being there. So I have my task manager open excel at 9:30pm everyday and it runs the macro to import the data into the correct day of the month. Here is the workbook

open macro-

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim dTime As Date
dTime = Time
If dTime >= TimeValue("9:30 PM") And _
dTime < TimeValue("9:40 PM") Then
ImportData
End If
End Sub

This is in my July spreadsheet only. So is there a way to make it know which month spreadsheet to open on the 1st of the month? So come August 1st it will automatically open the August workbook and input the data for the first day? By using the date?

Automatically Open New Workbook After 1st Workbook Open 4 Seconds

Nov 6, 2009

I have a presentation that I open from a short-cut. After the "Welcome Page" is opened, I want to open a second workbook in a new instance of Excel after 4 seconds.

I think that I can open the new instance of excel, but I don't know how to activate the macro after 4 seconds.

I'm sure there is a function someplace for this that can be used in a macro.

Then, after the second Workbook is opened, I want the Welcome Page "Workbook" closed, leaving the second Worbook open.

Dragging Formulas On Same Sheet (automatic Calculations Turned On)

Dec 10, 2012

I have a huge spreadsheet requiring me to manually enter alot of fields with formulas. I am using the formula

=COUNTIFS('A1'!C10:F11,Statistics!K5)+(COUNTIFS('A2'!C10:F11,Statistics!K5))+(COUNTIFS('A3'!C10:F11,Statistics!K5))

The full formula is quite long as this pick up the data off over 300 work sheets. (there's probably an easier way to do this aswell) When I copy or drag this to another cell with on the same worksheet it gives me the correct formular with the correct cells changes as I want. However this formular does not work. I have auto calculate on and I manually press enter on the cells and still nothing. If I change the following for the entire formula (about 8min to do each cell) it works

=COUNTIFS('A1'!C10:F11,Statistics!K5)+(COUNTIFS('A2'!C10:F11,Statistics!K5))+(COUNTIFS('A3'!C10:F11,Statistics!K5))

Is there an easier alternative then manually changing each number?

Get Macros To Open Embedded Documents

Jun 11, 2014

I am trying to create a macro to add to a button that will open an embedded document (word, PPT, and excel).

I recorded the macro and it works fine the first time I try to test it but after it tells me that there is an error...

I'm not exactly sure what to do. Unfortunately, I could not find what I needed on youtube

Error: It talks about the object being out of range and allows me to debug... the code that is in the developer is:

Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
'
'
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Windows("Worksheet in Book1").Visible = True
Selection.Verb Verb:=xlPrimary
ActiveWindow.Close
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
End Sub

The Windows line is what it tells me to fix.. from there I am lost... Is it because I am trying to do a double clicking function?

Change Name Of Worksheet On Open Without Macros

Aug 30, 2006

I'm trying to avoid using macros in my workbook, however, I'm unable to get my worksheets to change name (based on a named range) without use of them, as follows.

I've written the macro:

Sub MyMacro()
ActiveSheet.Name = Range("MyRange")
End Sub

and then dropped the following into the worksheet
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Run "MyMacro"
End Sub

This works fine, but I'm trying to avoid using macros. When I try to place the following script in the worksheet private code, nothing happens:

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
ActiveSheet.Name = Range("MyRange")
End Sub
