I have a main workbook that uses a macro to open a workbook provided to me from another department. This workbook contains a sheet that is basically a copy of the sheet in the main document and has the same sheetname and same codename.
The macro should copy the sheet data from the site workbook to the sheet in the main workbook. However, when i tell the workbook to select the sheet in the site file using its codename it errors....

I have 30 and above sheets in a work book and like that I am having 5 such
books. The sheets are named as 201, 202, 203 ....etc as per the contents in

324) I have go all the sheets one by one and it is hard to find out.
If any body give me a solution so that if I type a particular no. (forms

I m not able to use the standard Excel Paste Special function when I copied a range of cells in another Excel workbook opened in a separate instance of Excel. Instead, Paste Special thinks that I have copied some non-Excel objects and gave me the Paste As options. This is not the case if I open both workbook within the same instance of Excel. Could you share with us if there is a trick to trigger the normal Paste Special options in such situations (without having to invoke Macro procedures)?

Examp.: I have a workbook (Master.xls), and when this file be opened, and then others workbook (Transactions.xls, Order.xls, etc.) is opened too.
I have a workbook that is a formatted report that I need to insert data from a name variable "CSV" file. I have created a macro in this workbook that calls an "Open" dialog for CSV files that I can use to browse to and open the source file. The macro then is supposed to "select all" copy and close the workbook then make the original workbook active and paste the data starting at row 2. The macro "seems" to be working perfectly except when I do the open the macro then makes the original workbook active, selects all copies then wants to close the original workbook. How can I tell the macro that the csv file that I just opened should be the active workbook, baring in mind that the name won't be known before the time it's opened so I can't hardcode the "active. workbook (NAME) "route.
I've got a file that works fine on my computer. When I email it to anyone with 2010 and they open it from their email account (Outlook 2010), the file automatically opens up in 'Protected Mode'. If the user selects "Enable Editing" the user receives 'Run Time error 91: Object variable or with block variable not set'.
If the user closes out the vba error and saves the file to their computer and reopens the file, it works fine.
BTW, it is not a complex macro, it is error out at
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Worksheet").Select
I have an original workbook that I use daily stored in a folder called 'Live'. I also have this same workbook saved in a different folder call 'In Progress' because I am constantly improving and making changes to it. While I'm in the revision mode, I keep it in this folder. Once I've completed my revisions, I move it to the folder where the live workbook is located and replace the old version. Therefore, I have two copies of the workbook at all times. The name of the workbook in both folders is the same (IRQT)
I have a macro in this workbook that will allow you to save a copy of the workbook in a folder called IRQTArchive. The macro will create the folder if it doesn't exist, then store a copy of the workbook using a name in a cell. After that is complete it renames the workbook back to the original name (IRQT).
This macro works perfect in my live version, but when I execute the macro in the 'In Progress' version, I get a Compile error: Sub or Function not Defined when it reads the dirExists command in the first line of code. The code in both sheets is identical. Here are the first few lines of code. The command dirExists is highlited in yellow when it errors out.
Workbook_1 has a UDF that uses a Range() without any sheet name ( Range("myRange") instead of Sheets(1).Range("myRange") ). Workbook_2 has a macro that deletes a sheet. When the delete statement executes, the cells in Workbook_1 try to recalculate and the UDF returns an error. If I use 'workbooks("Workbook_1").Sheets(1).Range("myRange")' in the UDF then it works properly when WorkBook_2 deletes the sheet. ('Sheets(1).Range("myRange")' still produces an error).

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook with about 30 tabs in it. It is currently protected by a password. The workbook itself has a couple of 1000 formulas across the tabs.
What I would like to do is to lock certain cells on each worksheet depending upon if the workbook is opened as "read only" or "in edit mode" (when someone uses the password).
So when someone uses the correct password, I would still like certain cells to be locked, or after the initial password is entered for editing, another popup box with "would you like to edit cell formulas? Y/N (only on selective cells), if no, then no editing on those cells allowed, if yes, then prompted to input another password to do this.
How do I automatically run VBA code when a workbook is opened?
View 7 Replies View RelatedJust wanted to ask all the VBA gurus if they would know how to put the number of times (i.e. in Sheet 1, Range A1) a Workbook is opened.
I then want to basically have the code delete every sheet if ithe count is > 50.
Is there a way that when the workbook is opened, it automatically jumps to the sheet that has today's date on it and highlights that cell.
I have 12 sheets, one for each month and labeled as such. The dates for each month in cells D5:AH5 on each sheet.
How can I ensure that a cell (A1) is defaulted to the current date each time the file (in which the cell resides) is opened.
A1 is a field of a form in which the user can enter a date. I would like it to default to the current date each time the file is opened.
I am trying to ensure that m work book keeps the same name even when I email it to others.
I have been told on this forum that it is possible for a workbook to check its own name once opened?
I have two different names that this file can be called 1st is the one that is in use all the time and the 2nd is a archive version where the name changes each month.
The file name I wish to keep the same for the no archived version is Toolbox and a predetermined number I have a workings sheet called workings and in a cell i have a formula =TEXT("Toolbox Application " & Cover!E10,) this will give me the file name that i need to check for example it could be Toolbox Application 00089 or Toolbox Application 00967.
I also have a cmd that archives the workbook and saves it as Toolbox and the Month it was for Toolbox for Jan for example
I also need this to open if it is an archive
if neither of the names match i need the workbook to close and a msgbox to tell user to rename the workbook correctly.

I have a workbook that automatically saves itself when it is closed without prompting the user. Now I need to make the workbook automatically close if another workbook is opened.
if my_workbook.xls is opened and you open another workbook, I need my_workbook.xls to close instantly.
Is this possible to set a macro which will delete the file if opened on another computer? Ie say on WB open I want to set a macro that if Environ(“Username”) = “ABCD” then proceed else delete the file permanently from th e other computers machine. If deletion of file is not possible then deletion of sheets or contents of sheets should be deleted. The sheets will be protected. Expecting a solution to delete the file.
