This is the first time i am using this forum. I am having a doubt in the macro. I am using MS-Office 2007 version. In Excel 2007 when you go to "developer" tab, the first group is "code" under that when you click on "Macro". You will be able to see a button called "create". Can you tell for what purpose it is used? when it will be "active" because it is always in disabled state.
View 2 RepliesI have a spread sheet that I have written that has 2 html links in it. The links work, but they only open in one browser tab. How do I get them to open in different tabs? Opening in two different browser sessions would be acceptable too. I have Excel 2007 and IE 9 but the users may have different versions.

A macro, which would allow me to click on a particular cell, which will have an ID number (1 through 34), each ID# is attributed to a particular employee. These ID# are located in my spreadsheet in columns B & G, and the ID #'s begin initially in B6 & G6 and continue downward to B34 & G34. These ID #'s are used in a vlookup type formula which covers 35 pages of this workbook. What I'd like to do is be able to click on any cell between B6& B34 (and/or the same in G6&G34), which has a particular ID # in it and have the photo of that particular employee designated with that ID# pop up in a window generated by the macro. I hope this makes sense! Any help would be greatly appreciated. My 1st sheet in my workbook is my "lookup" tab, which contains my ID# list and numbering sequence affiliated to each employee. So I'm not sure if I'd need to put the photograph of the employee in a column next to the employees name or have a folder designated with all my pictures in a certain directory, etc.

I need code that will let me activate and inactivate a custom menu bar macro when the user leaves/reeturns to the workbook the menu is for. Example: in workbook A (with a cutsom menu bar), the user inputs data, but needs to check or edit workbook B (normal menu bars). I want the menus to go back to normal when the user activates Window WorkbookB. When finished there, and selecting Workbook A, I want the custom menu macro to run again. I already have create/delete code. Would the solution be some type of If Then in the Sheet Code?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recorded one that does a very simple task, converts formulas to values. I saved it in my personal workbook, all is well. I noticed that excel names them Module1, Module2 etc. I thought it would be better to name them, so in the properties window next to "name" i changed Module1 to ConvertFormulas.
However, when i go to a worksheet, the keyboard shortcut no longer works. Reverting back to the old name Module1 solves this. Clicking Tools -> Macro -> Macros, selecting ConvertFormulas and then Options and modifying the shortcut.
I'm very new to Excel and definately to macros/vba. I've already received a tremendous amount of help with this file but I'm am really struggling here and getting very frustrated! I've got a pretty good handle on the excel part but the macros/vba is another story. Here is what i'm attempting to do: I've created a form "frmMacroButtons" which has 8 buttons. When the workbook is opened I want this form/window to launch. I want the user to be able to select any of the buttons but also be able to just click into the worksheet manually if wanted but have the window stay open to go back to use the buttons. Each of the buttons I've typed a description of what I want each of the buttons to do in the code view.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have created an attendance tracker for a team of people at work. It simply involves a grid of the days of the month and on each 'day' (or cell) I have set up the Validation command to prompt the the user to select whether they were at work, on holiday, off sick etc. etc from a drop down box. If they do not change the cell, its defaulted value is that they are in work.
When a user selects the days that they are planning a holiday in the future, they are meant to write a comment on the cells they have changed, to advise when they had 'requested' the holiday.
What I would like is (a macro?) which makes the comment box automatically 'pop up' when they change a cell from its default value prompting them to fill in the details rather than relying on them to 'add comments' manually.
In addition, what would be the best way to 'restrict' them from booking holiday within the next 7 days - we have a problem with people booking holiday on 'lastminute.com' for 2 days time, booking off the holiday on the spreadsheet and saying that they had it planned for weeks!
I have this module that is supposed to delete rows containing some words and those that are entirely empty..
The macro works fine when I open the file for the first time (excel as well) but subsequently if i try to run it again, the macro doesnt work anymore. What could possibly be causing this bug?
Private Sub DeleteRows()
ScreenUpdating = True
Dim Rng1 As Range
Dim X As String
X = " TOTAL"

Set Rng1 = ActiveSheet.UsedRange. Find(X)
If Rng1 Is Nothing Then
Exit Do

Rows(Rng1.Row).Delete

I am using Excel2010.
My sheet displays values collected from a database via an AddIn. The values are updated by pressing CTRL+G (AddIn function).
I have an OnTime macro running SendKeys "^G" to update the values every minute. When the values exceed a certain limit, a sound is played from a custom Alarm function.
This all works as long as the excel window is active.
But if excel is minimized or another window is opened, the values stop updating until Excel is active again.
When the values dont update the sound is not played and that defeats the purpose of the sheet.
I'm trying to have a macro that opens the save as window, places the name in cell f5 and then allows you to save the workbook with cell f5 as the filename. I have managed to get the save as window to come up and the cell f5 as the name, but when I press save is doesn't. Here is what I have (also, is there a way to direct this to a specific folder).

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have converted an Excel file from 2003 to 2007. The file now has a .xlsm extension as it contains macros. I have "enabled all macros" and "trusted access to the VBA project object model". Whilst open, I have tested the macro buttons and they work.
I then close the file and re-open it, and the macro's will not work. A message appears along the lines of "macros are anabled" or "macro is not found". I have double-checked the settings and everything appears normal.
I saved the workbook as Macro enabled workbook in 2007. Also changed the security level to 'Enable all macro'. But the Macro buttons on the developer tab still shows disabled. Also not able to open VBA window with Alt+F11 key.

I want to do simple calculation using Macro in MS Excel 2007..

Here is my coding..
I posted similar yesterday. No one helped...sniff sniff (where's the crying smily)
Now verified to be occur on other machines running various versions of Office 2007...
In Excel 2007, write this simple macro and assign it to a shape:
I have written a macro to hide any column (within a range of columns) that has an 'x' in it. By putting the 'x' in the column, it allows the allows the user to choose what columns they want to hide. I have an inverse macro as well that unhides those hidden columns.
These macros work perfectly in Excel 2003, but they do not work in Excel 2007. In Excel 2007 I get a compile error: can't find project or library. As a note, all other macros in my spreadsheet (Module 1) work.
I've got the following macro which I used to copy and transpose an array of data from a 'working' workbook (data in columns) to a 'summary' workbook (data in rows). This worked great in excel 2003 as I used all the columns available (ie. up to IV).
I've run into a problem now I'm using Excel 2007 as there are now significantly more columns. The macro is now trying to copy and transpose every single column in the workbook and is taking a ridiculous amount of time.
How would I adjust this macro so that it only copied a set number of columns? I'd like it to copy only up to column ATV in working.
Sub test()
Dim i As Integer, n As Long
Sheets("summary").Columns("b:iv").Clear
For i = 7 To Columns.Count Step 3
n = n + 1
With Sheets("working").Cells(8, i).Resize(11)
Sheets("summary").Cells(n + 2, "b").Resize(.Columns.Count, .Rows.Count) _
.Value = Evaluate("if(transpose(working!" & .address & ")=0,"""",transpose(working!" & .Address & "))")
End With
Next
End Sub
I had a macro that worked perfectly by inserting pictures into named ranges throughout the sheet depending on user input. However when I switched to Microsoft Excel 2007, the pictures all go into one cell.
My code looks like this:
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim picnme As String
Dim rng As Range
Dim ArrImg
Set rng = Range("B5")
picnme = Range("B5")
picnme = Range("B5")
Range("B5").Select
ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert( _
"C:ArchivePictures" & picnme & ".jpg").Select
Selection.ShapeRange.ScaleWidth 1.1, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft
Selection.ShapeRange.ScaleHeight 1.1, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft
Selection.ShapeRange.IncrementTop 1.5
Selection.ShapeRange.ScaleWidth 0.84, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft
Selection.ShapeRange.ScaleHeight 0.95, msoFalse, msoScaleFromTopLeft
I only copied in a section of it bit it gets rather repetitive. There are over 50 pictures that get inserted into the spreadsheet and it worked fine in the prior version of excel.
I am trying to put together a standalone VBA macro that can easily be inserted into my financial models that allows me to quickly switch between two different printing setups - e.g. 8.5x 11 and 11x17 tabloid.
I also am using excel 2007.
A certain macro (or is it a VB script?) in an Excel 2007 spreadsheet has to be manually recalculated every time I open the file. The only way I've found to do this is to click in the formula bar and hit Enter, or else click the green check mark to accept the formula. The spreadsheet is set to recalculate automatically, so I do not understand why this is happening.
Another wrinkle is that I can't locate the specification/definition of the macro. I checked the Developer menu on the ribbon and looked in the Visual Basic and Macros lists, but could not see the definition of the macro in question. Another user created the spreadsheet but I am unable to contact him...
The following is the macro I have created, but I can't get it to loop. I need to insert a row below Labour-Overtime about 100 times in the document, not just once. Until the bottom. Also, active cell 1013 needs to be the same as what is above it. The series repeats and goes up by 1 every time. Not sure how to get that to work.
