Excel 2002 :: Limitations In Shared Workbook
Jul 20, 2013
I am using excel 2002 and I have found that when the workbook is shared and getting 2 or more users to open the workbook around the same time brings up a read only type prompt box for the 2nd ( and 3rd) user when the book hasn't fully opened for the 1st user/is still fully opening. Is this a limitation within excel or is there a way around this for example via vb code.
I know the more data a workbook has can cause it open a lot slower but is this the same for shared mode.

I've got some code which some one posted me a link to on here which set up a pivot table on more that 1 sheets (using excel 2002).
I inserted this code into a rountine I do daily which works fine.
The problem Im having is that Im getting more and more info which I need to pivot over more than one sheet. So I was going to amend the rountine so It picked what ever sheets are in the work book to pivot.
At the moment I have to go into the code and name the sheets to pivot. Is there some code which can work out how many sheets that need pivoting and just do it with out naming them? and also just add a new sheet with the pivot on rather than having to name the destination?
I've posted the code i got given below and have highlighted the bit where I have to name the sheets.
Code:
'---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Procedure : CreateConnection

I have a file that has an original file format .xls
I saved as .xlsx (I am using Excel 2007) with a different name so I could make changes to the new file without changing the original.
That turn off compatibility mode.... but it is still "shared". While it is shared I cannot delete a sheet. In fact, I really don't even want it to be shared. If the file is open, and someone else opens it, I want it to open as "read only". I cannot uncheck the "Allow changes by more than one user at the same time. This also allows workbook merging." checkbox because it is greyed out.

Im using Excel 2010 and have a data connection that I want to use. I added it to a regular workbook and it updates perfectly as-designed. However, I need this feature to work in a shared workbook, but it doesn't.

We have a Shared workbook on our Server and about 5 users work at the same time every day. I want to understand something, If I open it I can see all the information in it, all the rows and so on, but if the same workbook is opened by another user he will see other information, the rows aren't the same as in my case. Why does this happen ? I would like the second users to see the same information as I do.

I have a workbook with a combo box.
ActiveX control? (=EMBED("Forms.ComboBox.1","") They are filled using named ranges on another worksheet and work fine. The problem happens when I share the workbook the combo boxes become completely non-functional. They don't even drop down when clicked.

I've added some code the adds a button to a worksheet
Public Sub AddSheetPrintButton()
Dim btn As Button
Dim t As Range
Set t = ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(1, 6), Cells(1, 7)) ' button position
Set btn = ActiveSheet.Buttons.Add(t.Left, t.Top, t.Width, t.Height)
With btn
.OnAction = "sheetPrint"
.Caption = "Print Sheet"
.Name = "Print"
.Font.ColorIndex = 10
End With
End Sub
This works fine until the workbook is shared!

The other day I inserted a row in a shared workbook and then saved it. On my screen, the inserted row was visible and was the correct row height of 12.75. My goal was to insert the row so another user sitting next to me could enter information in the new row.
After I saved the workbook, and after the user sitting next to me saved her workbook, the row I inserted should have appeared exactly the same on her screen, but it did not. Instead, the inserted row showed up as a hidden row on her screen. It was there, but the row height was collapsed to the point of invisibility.
I repeated my attempt to insert a row which the other user could edit several times, but each time I got the same result. I could not make the row show up on her screen with a row height of 12.75.

I am using Excel 2010. I am using a shared workbook that was originally created in Excel 2003. This workbook has a command button that is supposed to be clicked to open a userform. However, I cannot even click on the button when opening the shared form in Excel 2010. When the form is not shared, the button works fine.
I have no problems with the button when opening the shared form in 2003 or 2007.
Is there anything I can do to make the command button work while the form is shared and while using Excel 2010?

Using Excel 2010.
I've created a spreadsheet at work that has two summary tabs which contain hyperlinks to around 30 separate sheet tabs.
On each sheet tab there is a list of unique values in column A (and other information relating to each value in columns B to D which are repeated for more than one unique value). In column E, users enter a test script name against each unique value they wish to 'reserve', and the macro picks out the unique test script names and via the COUNTIF formula counts the frequency of each test script name for each of the different values in column B.
My problem is that the macro seems to work fine if the workbook is not shared, but errors if the workbook is saved as shared. The error is 'Run time error 1004 - Unable to select the MergeCells property of the Range class'.
Here is the macro code:
Sub Get_Policies_Per_Script(updCol As Long, ShtName As String)
Dim rowctr As Long
Dim tgtrow As Long
Const ppsformula As String = "=COUNTIFS($A$3:$A$65000,I$24,$E$3:$E$65000,$G"
If updCol = 5 Then 'test name column has been modified
[Code] ..........

I currently have a password secured excel file on my departs Q drive, which everyone can access unfortunately only 1 person can edit at a time. I tried to turn it into a workbook so we could all edit it at the same time but now some of the other users can't access the file at our other buildings throughout the county. This is for excel 2010. And I did select the share workbook, and allow multiple users to edit box. everything else is unchanged.

I'm trying to do a nested formula to automatically assign a region number based on what the County is. We have 88 counties we deal with, split into 7 regions. What is the best way to go about setting up a formula to do this, so I don't have to do it manually? I believe the last time I tried doing something like this, I received an error saying that Excel didn't support a formula as big as what I was writing.

I wrote a code in unshared workbook and it works fine. But when i make it shared i get Run-time error '1004' Delete method of worksheet class failed.
The Deleting of worksheet only occurs once (when the new wb is created) so is there i can unshare and share it back when the process is complete?

In a worksheet the data (text or numerical) from five columns are compared using the following formula.
=IF($A10$G10,"1ERROR",IF($B10$H10,"2ERROR",IF($C10$I10,"3ERROR",IF($D10$J10,"4ERROR",IF($E10$K10,"5ERROR","-")))))
The formula is working well. The problem is I get the result for the first column of error even if the error is in more than one column. I want the result should display all the errors with the column number 1, 2, 3 (or with column name A, B, C etc). The total number of error is not required. The exact columns which have the error should be displayed. For example if the error exists in 3, 4 and 5 columns, I should get the result as "345Error" or "CDEError".I use excel 2002.

I've got Excel 2002. I am devising a sheet for checking work (sheet A) which feeds onto a separate sheet (sheet B). If I wanted to delete info from sheet A can I retain the info on sheet B? I want sheet A to be used repeatedly for each case but the info for every case to be recorded row by row on sheet B.

I'm currently trying to set up a spreadsheet on excel, when certain documents need updating. Basically I have a column with the dates in that each document was last updated, I want the cells to turn red (fill colour) if the document has not been updated within the last 6 months and orange (fill colour) if the document has not been updated in the last 4 months. How do I do this?
I am currently using Excel 2002 and am on a Windows XP computer.

Excel 2002.I have data in columns A and B on sheet 3, starting at row 100. The total number of rows of data is variable (max is 50 rows). I want to take the values in A100:B100 and copy them from Sheet3 and paste values transposed to SheetTL Range C1:C2. I have started to write the following code but as you can see I will have to repeat the code upwards of 50 times. It seems I should be able to do a COUNT function to see how many rows of data exist and then somehow loop the code to copy the data from each subsequent row that many times, but how to put that together.
Sheets("Sheet3").Range("A100:B100").Copy
Sheets("TL").Range("C1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Transpose:=True
ActiveSheet.PrintOut
If Sheets("Sheet3").Range("A101") = "" Then

I have a workbook in which there is a sheet containing a table.
Excel 2002ABC123Specific Gravity6 Volt ValuesSOC40.0000.000Dead

From another sheet I query this table using the LOOKUP function to obtain values from column C such as 25% 60% and so on. A typical query formula looks like this:
=LOOKUP(B2,'SOC Chart'!B4:'SOC Chart'!C19)
It would be nice if the fill color came along with the value.

Basically, I have an excel spreadsheet with different valued items for example,
TV Essential l £15
TV Essential extra l £20
Broadband Essential l £ 8
Broadband Extra l £12
I have options for TV, Broadband and Phone. At the bottom of the spreadsheet I want three drop down lists to pick what TV, Broadband and Phone package I want. For example: TV Essential, Broadband Extra and Phone Weekend. I can create the lists but I was wondering if there was anyway where, as you select the option on each of the lists, a running total will be created. So when TV Essential is selected £15 is added to a cell, say F20. Then when Broadband Extra is selected another £12 is added to cell F20. And as you select different ones in each list the total in F20 changes.
I'm using Excel 2002.

I have been asked to provide a UTF-8 formatted unicode file for use by another program but I am not sure which formatting excel uses.

How do I get a shared workbook to automatically save upon every change by each user. The only way I can get this to work (at this point) is to run a macro that updates every 45 seconds IN EACH WORKBOOK! It's counterintuitive because the workbook is shared (on a network), but each user must start the "time" macro in their "individual" SHARED workbook to allow the automatic saving.
What am I missing? There has to be a more efficient way to do this, right?
Code below
HTML Sub Time()
Call Save
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:45"), "Time"
End Sub
HTML Sub Save()
ActiveWorkbook.Save
End Sub
