Edit Links When New Worksheet Added
Jun 27, 2008
[url]
I was wondering if it is possible to update links from one worksheet to another that contains a running tally - even when another worksheet is added and needs to be linked to the running tally as well?
I have attached a sample workbook. What I have is a summary sheet ( Sum Hrs CMS) that has SUMIF calculations for a series of rows in the Estimate Sheet.
The problem that I have run into is - when you press the Add New Sheet button on the Estimate sheet, it copies hidden sheet and inserts it at the end of the workbook, however I then need the hours in the CMS portion to link to the summary sheet. What I was wondering is how do the links on the 'Sum Hrs CMS' sheet include this new sheet and the data that is entered on it?

I have an unwanted link and I can't remove it. I have tried through the Edit Links dialog box, searched for [ in formulas throughout the workbook and gone searching manually for the reference but to no avail.

I have inherited an excel document that has dashboards, data pages and pivot tables. There is macro and links within this but I can not view the macros at all. When trying to update the links ( using break,update, change) it appears to work ( changes to OK) but the location field on bottom of edit links page NEVER goes to new location and the MANUAL button is greyed out. I need to be able to update this master file tomorrow with the multiple excel sheets I will get but do not know how to do it if can not update links proeprly or even be able to view the macro

Is it possible to update external links on a worksheet via running a macro?
I have a worksheet where some cells have external links to other files, and every month I have to scroll through and do the typing in order to have everything up and running.
A typical cell has formulas like =[E:ReportsAug-2007.xls]Data!F25
Another cell =[E:ReportsAug-2007.xls]Data!F43
and so on.
Every new month I actually have to replace all [E:ReportsAug-2007.xls] occurrences with for example [E:ReportsSep-2007.xls]. So, is it possible to have a macro which opens a textbox of which i can type the new month 'Sep', so that when the macro runs I save all the typing?

I'm trying to set up a macro so that: in column C I will see the current (old) links being used by the workbookin column D I will input the new links I want to use in the workbookthe macro will open all those files in column Dthe macro will then replace the current (old) links with those listed in column D
I have the following so far, but something doesn't seem to be working - it gets as far as opening the first new file but doesn't open any others and doesn't change any links (although I've tested the part to change links separately and this seemed to work ok).
Sub linked_sheets()
Dim LinkedBooks As Variant
Dim i As Long
LinkedBooks = ThisWorkbook.LinkSources()
For i = LBound(LinkedBooks) To UBound(LinkedBooks)
Cells(i + 3, 3) = LinkedBooks(i)
[Code] ..........

I have a macro where I try to edit the links after I open the workbook. I used the macro recorder to get the code, and if I use it, it works great. However, when I try to insert some variables in the code, I get an error saying "Method 'ChangeLink' of object'_Workbook' failed. I don't know why I'm getting this error. Below is code.
Sub MyCode
Dim VarianceMonth As Variant
VarianceMonth = VarianceReport.cboMonth.ListIndex + 1
Windows(VarianceMonth & "_2007 Forecast (LGBU).xls").Activate
ActiveWorkbook.ChangeLink Name:= _
"\sf1d3shareLGBU_ FinanceAdministrative ReportsMonthly Forecasts" & VarianceMonth & "_2007" & VarianceMonth - 1 & "_2007 Forecast (Ancillary).xls" _
, NewName:= _
"\sf1d3shareLGBU_ FinanceAdministrative ReportsMonthly Forecasts" & VarianceMonth & "_2007" & variancmeonth & "_2007 Forecast (Ancillary).xls" _

I'd prefer to edit links with the source workbook open, however I receive this error when I do "A formula in this worksheet contains one or more invalid references." I am able to edit links with the source workbook closed but this takes far too much time to be satisfied with that as the solution. I have used vlookup formulas and the index-match method and they both take about the same amount of time to update. I've separated each worksheet and used the "name manager" add-in and have searched all links for any type of error. I feel like I'm missing something. Is there a way to fix this "invalid reference" error so that I can edit my links with the source workbook open?

I have 10 workbooks which have various calculations and have several links to each other. We use Excel 2003.
For each of these files, I have the following code in the Auto_Open module
Range Range(“TodayComp”) is a date taken form a link in another spreadsheet. It is on Column 3, but the row changes every day as more rows are inserted before it
This sub looks at Range(“TodayComp”) and checks the date on the cell directly above.
If say Range(“TodayComp”) is 6/25/2008, and the cell above is 6/22/2008, it will insert three rows right above Range(“TodayComp”). These rows need to be copied with formulas from the current row above Range(“TodayComp”)
Issue One:
The following code works (it copies the rows), but it takes forever to run, as you can see in bold, I copy and paste each cell, instead of the entire row.
Is there a way to copy and paste the entire row? Remember that I have only a named range to refer to, no cell address as it changes every time.
Public Sub Auto_open()
Update_Dates()
End Sub
Public Sub Update_Dates()
Dim tdy, prev As Date
Dim index, i, j, yr, no_inserts As Integer
Sheets("Comparison Computation").Activate

Is there a way that formula links in spreadsheets can use environment variables to reference formulas in other spreadsheets/addins?
For example, I have a spreadsheet that imports templates which call functions in an addin. The spreadsheet, templates and the addin could be installed into either the 'Program Files' or the 'Program Files (x86)' folders.
I am experiencing issues with the formula references when moved between 32 and 64 bit computers since Excel seems to store the full path of the addin in the Excel formula (even though it hides it when the reference resolves its path) in my templates. I would like to update the references in my templates so that they use an environment variable (set by my software installer) to always know the correct path of the addin.
In Excel 2003, spreadsheet links are edited via: 'Edit'->'Links'
In Excel 2007 and higher,'Data'->'Edit Links'

I have a workbook that has a dynamic number of tabs. Every day the report is updated, it will create a tab for yesterday's date. I need to somehow create a summary page that will add the most current tab name (which is yesterday's date) to column B and several cells from row 7 to the appropriate row on the summary page each time I add a new tab. I have attached the spreadsheet in question. I have added manual references to the fields I need to use in the summary on the tab MTD (2) If I am able to get this to work it will replace MTD.

I have a workbook to track clients served. The first sheet has all of the data entered into it. The name, age, demographics, services. The second sheet is a template of the individual client's pages, summarizing their information and services received. I want to code the sheet so that once a new client is entered into the table on sheet 1, the template will automatically be copied to the end, renamed, and the basic data for the new client will be pasted into the new sheet.
I've been working on this project and done a ton of googling. And also am very new to VBA. I have found a solution that works:
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$B$2" Then
Sheets(2).Copy After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
[Code]....
But I really don't want to do 50 "else" clauses for each line where there could be a new client. So I was thinking, if i could find a way to do a relative reference, such that it selects the cells to copy relative to the one that was changed within the range of that column, then I would only need one "if" statement. Is that possible? Is there some way to change the "B3" in target_address to "any cell in column B" and then range "A3" a few lines down would somehow be "1 cell left of the one changed" and the range "A3:K3" to copy would be "1 left:9 right" of the one changed. I know this may be impossible or just not how VBA language works, but I thought it'd be a lot easier than 50 repititions of if..then...else....

I have created a calendar to enter various locations. At present they are set up using VBA and are called from buttons on the calendar. What I want to do is add a button to the worksheet and then edit its text. I will call a subroutine to use the edited text as the name I want in the calendar. What I cannot figure out is how to return the index of the button have just added so i can alter the button text. I appreciate I could cycle through all the shapes on the sheet but as I do not know the number of the one I have just added I cannot work on the correct one. I suppose I could cycle through all of them and use a carrier to count how many there are then add one to get the latest but that seems very crude not mention time consuming as I allready have 504 text boxes on the claendar.

My company uses two excel workbooks to track campaigns, I'm looking to create a VBA script that can detect when a new worksheet is added to the other workbook when it is activated. To provide a more concrete example:
In workbook one there are worksheets : Apple, Orange, and Pear
In workbook two there are rows Titled: Apple, Orange, and Pear. Each row has formulas that pull from the specific worksheet.
Then a 4th worksheet, Grape, is added to workbook one. I'm aiming to make a script/button which when activated would notice that there is not a corresponding row named Grape and create one.
However, more simply, I could also make this work if I could just create a Script which when activated populated a column in workbook two with all the worksheet names from workbook one.

I have developed an application (all written in Excel) that can do comparisons between up to 5 scenarios (A.... E, with A being the Master that the others are compared to. Any one can be designated “A”.
All scenarios are the same format, and all have an identical Transfer Worksheet, to enable the transfer of data from the others to A for comparison to A. So, for A the transfer worksheet becomes an Importer, wherein the user pastes-special – link into array, always B21:E35, one column at a time, for each of up to 4 scenarios B…E.
For the others, Transfer worksheet becomes an Exporter, available for the user to copy the data from each of scenarios B….E, always cells B41:B54....

I found a topic here that wanted to know how to remove links, I wanted the same thing.
I found an add-in that identified and could remove any links in the workbook depending on the response to the dialog box. So far, so good.
But it found a link that was located on another page, this link was linked to a third workbook. But what the link is doing or what its association is w/ the other workbook is a mystery. How do I see what this link's purpose/function is?

Ive searched for a solution around this site and it all leads to a dead end. I have a userform created in Excel, where I want to import a existing worksheet from another workbook and display it on the user form, so the user can edit it. I have tried using the Office SPreadsheet 10.0. By copy the excel file contents and pasting it into the spreadsheet cells, but PasteSpecial doesnt work so all the formating is out the door.

I have "inherited" an Excel workbook from someone that is really unwieldy in presentation and difficult to read. I want to break it down and reorder some of the tables and information. To do this I need to copy/ cut parts of different sheets into others. When I do this, I'm finding that I get reference errors even though the source documents are the same.

How can I break the link between a chart and a worksheet? If I change the name of the worksheet and try to use the chart I got an error that the current worksheet is the one that the chart is related to. I tried changing the source from the links option in the bar - no effect. I checked conditional formatting - also no effect. How can I break all existing links between the sheet and the macro?

I have a macro that I would like to let a user edit the worksheet and make changes at a certain point. I have tried creating a modeless userform, but the userform only pops up and the code continues running without waiting for input (or running any of the code in the userform). Any way I can accomplish this or what I would be doing wrong with the userform?

I have this password protected Excel template (v.2002), it includes one particular drop-down box, which is not a data validation choice selection, but a 'object' drop-down box which offers choices linked to a hidden value, via the INDEX function. The issue arises when I password protect the template and attempt to select from the available choices, I get a dialog box telling me the "the cell or chart...is password protected and...read-only"..."To modify...remove protection". I imagined checking the "Edit Objects" selection, upon protecting the worksheet would have avoided any problems, but that doesn't do the job.

his is of Jaafarian proportions. This is in relation to an earlier post on dragging and dropping. That is all worked out thanks to help from board members. For the sake of your own curiosity, this project will tile worksheet windows (actually specific ranges from other worksheets and other workbooks), borderless, within a single userform and allow dragging and dropping between ranges that reside in different workbooks. That is all worked out as well. The only roadblock I am running into right now is that I cannot edit directly in the cell when the worksheet is displayed in the userform. Probably has something to do with placing a worksheet in a userform to begin with.
CTRL-R to show the form or run maco, "ShowForm". If you double click a cell and attempt to go into edit mode, it will appear to be locked up. It's not, just hit enter to escape the cell. The problem is the userform is a child window of the application. Hence, focus can pass to the parent window or another child (the formula bar in particular) which is exactly the behaviour expected. How do I get around this?
