TextFrame.Characters Behavior

May 31, 2009

I use the command
ActiveSheet.Shapes("ZoneTexte " & R_Box).TextFrame.Characters(Start:=1, Length:=10).Font.Size = 10

To modify the Font.Size the 10 first characters in my textbox.

Work fine the first time. Problem occured when the same macro is called for the second time in the same textbox.

Problem: I got 20 of the first characters font.size modified instead of the first 10. Calling it a third time, i will have thirty characters. The start :=1 seems to be modified.

Strange and i have problem to explain it using my FranGlish language writing

Change Behavior Of A Built-In Toolbar Button

May 8, 2008

I am trying to assign a macro to the Print button on the Standard Toolbar. Basically I want that button to print the number of pages I've specified in a cell, but I still want to be able to use the 'File/Print...' option if I need to.

I did try to solve this issue in an earlier post, but this exact problem remained unsolved. For more information

Override Cell Drag & Drop Behavior

Oct 13, 2007

For example. Dragging c7 to e5.

My range before dragging and dropping...

After the drop.

What do you think? I think it can be done but do not want to waste time going about it the wrong way. Please give me any ideas on how you would approach this problem.

Some information to start with. The modal dialog that pops up can be dealt with.

This one.

I can determine if I want to insert down or up. I am not concerned with shifting left or right at this point.

I can also determine the original address and destination address of the drag and drop operation by using the change event.

The ranges being dragged will be limited to a single cell.

Weird File Open/Save As Behavior

Dec 12, 2005

A client of ours has one particular file that has some very strange behavior as described below. This only occurs with the one particular file and the behavior is consistent across different PC's in both their office and ours. All other Excel files in both offices work fine. Here's what happens:

- you can use Windows Explorer to copy the file between drives without
a problem (as expected)

- if you open the file in Excel on one drive then save it back to that
same drive with either the same file name or a different file name, the
file works fine (as expected)

- if you open the file in Excel on one drive then do a "Save As" to
save it to a *different* drive with either the same file name or a
different file name (in default .xls format), the new file causes
errors in Excel every time you open it as per below (weird!)

- even if you do a "Save As" and choose a different format eg Excel
97-2003 or Excel 95, the error behavior is consistent (weird!).............

I really know nothing about vba so here goes. I would like to enter data in a row with 4 cells of info. then hit enter and return to the first cell and move the row down. all four cells must have data entered. and all four must move down. i tried some code as below i found and i modified but it did not work as expected. this moved the row down when returning the cursor to A2.

Can't Enter Any Data

Feb 23, 2007

I've been using Excel for years and had very few issues. However, I recently went into a spreadsheet to update it and was unable to select and enter data into an individual cell. When I click on a cell and try to enter #s nothing happens (my num lock is on). Then when I try to click into another cell it just highlights that cell, along with any other that I move my cursor over. Once I click on one cell I can't stop the highlighting from happening. I can't even click on anything in the toolbar.

I have manually set all row heights to 12.75 to make sure they are the same. In these rows I have a comments box and when the end of the cell is reached I use alt&enter to continue writing underneath. Seems the comments cell has stopped re-sizing.

Using Enter In Userform?

May 30, 2012

I have this series of userform modules that error check the user's input of a date value.

Code:
Private Sub txtDate_Enter()
txtdate.SelStart = 0
txtdate.SelLength = Len(txtdate.Value)

[Code]....

Everything works fine, but I'm looking to improve it's efficiency. Most people will by habit press [ENTER] after inputting the date in the textbox txtdate control. As it is now, for the code to execute after the value is entered is to push the {SUBMIT} button.

What would I need to do to allow hitting [ENTER] to do the same as clicking submit?

Enter Date Without Day In Cell

Jul 31, 2014

I have to enter a ton of dates in cells that don't need to include the day. And so was hoping if there was a way to enter a date into a cell without having to enter the day.

In essence, it seems like I have to type in the date as month/day/year and excel will figure it out from there. I would like to be able to just type month/year without bothering with the day, such as 9/14. And then excel recognizes this as a date.

Excel has to be able to recognize it as a date because these dates are expiration dates. And I would like to conditional format these dates so that when the expiration date has past the cell turns yellow.

Enter In Multiple Vba If Statements

May 17, 2008

I have attached a copy of my monthly work schedule. Sorry if it looks too noobish but I am.
The question I have is on the schedule right now, it uses to of the same schedule, one is called request off and the other the final. The request off right now is where all changes are made, and they reflect on the final. I did it this way because I could not figure out how to make the cells autofill according to the day of the week, like if it was friday i needed it to fill in the shifts and normal days off automatically.

What I am trying to do now is eliminate the need for the second schedule, the request off one. I think I have figured out how to have the cells autofilled according to the day of the week, and also let the user enter in other stuff such as sick, vacation or whatever, and have it autofill if the cell is left blank, using vba. this is what i have so far, and it is working I was just wondering if it was possible to set it up for a range of cells instead of having to enter each one in manually.

Enter Array Formula Via VBA?

May 22, 2009

I have following Array formula in Cells N1:N3.

HTML =SUM(IF(O$4:O$1000="Total I/O Points",N$4:N$1000,0))

Each formula has different text in "".

There are a few macros in this workbook that delete and/or insert rows.
When that happens, the formulas listed above get modified with different references. How do I restore the formulas back to the same range reference [O$4:O$1000]?
