Excel 2003 :: Highlight Cell On Same Row As Active.cell Whenever Active.cell Changes

Dec 10, 2012

whenever the active cell is within a given range, highlight the cell on the same row in column S (by changing its interior colour). This should occur each time the active cell is changed, whether by cursor keys or mouse. The effect would be similar to the row and column highlights at left and top of the worksheet.

This action should be restricted to one sheet in the workbook.

It's for Excel 2003.

Highlight Row Of Active Cell

Oct 27, 2008

Is it possible to have a specified shading (say 50%) applied to all rows except the currently picked row and the header rows to allow a user to focus on inputting across the row? I'd use this in conjunction with " Move Selection After Enter" to "Right" so the user would stay on the same row. I've tried the Help function, but can't find anything.

Temporary Highlight Row Of Active Cell

Nov 18, 2010

When looking at a spreadsheet with many columns, it would be nice of the row of the cell I have selected would remain highlighted in yellow, so that as I scroll across rows it's easy to view the data associated with the selected cell. Of course, if I select another cell, I would want the highlighting to change to THAT row. I'm guessing this would have to be in a this.workbook change event.

Active Cell Highlight Missing

Feb 22, 2010

When I open any spreadsheet (new or already populated) the black box that normally frames the active cell is missing (showing which cell you have selected). Likewise when I 'select all' the sheet does not become shaded.

In addition:

Cannot fill series
Cannot change cell format (specifically to show Currency or Accounting w/$ symbol)

Highlighting The Active Cell After A Highlight

Nov 30, 2006

I have a cover sheet to a workbook that holds hyperlinks to its relevent page. Several of the hyperlinks link to the same page but different relevant cells. However it is not overly clear which cell is active when you click the hyperlink. What I would like is for the active cell to be highlighted on the page. EG hyperlink 1 links to page 1 cell A2 & hyperlink 2 links to page 1 cell B6 - I would like A2 to be highlighted when accessed by hyperlink 1 & B6 highlighted when accessed by hyperlink 2.

Print Active Cell Highlight

Nov 14, 2006

I have a routine that highlights a selected Active Cell,
but when I printout the spreadsheet this highlight is not printed.

I have been pull my hair out (what's left!), to try to show this highlighted cell when printed.

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Range("d22:u45"), Target) Is Nothing Then
Range("d12").Value = " Out"
Range("e14").Value = "0"
Else
If Intersect(Range("d22:u45"), Target) >= 3 Then
Range("d12").Value = Cells(19, ActiveCell.Column).Value
Range("e14").Value = Cells(21, ActiveCell.Column).Value
Static rngPrev As Range, PrevColor As Integer
Dim TempColor As Integer
TempColor = Target.Cells(1, 1).Interior.ColorIndex

If Not rngPrev Is Nothing Then
If PrevColor <> xlLineStyleNone Then .......................

Selecting Range From Active Cell To Last Entry In Same Row As Active Cell

Jun 8, 2014

I have got stuck on one piece of my code and having trouble fixing... Overall I am trying to find variable station name in cell L2 of Sheet 2 in Sheet 1 and then select and copy the data from the data in "cell L2 of Sheet 2" to the last entry of that row. I have attached an example test spreadsheet of the data and a macro is within Sheet 1 called test1. Please note that cell L2 in Sheet 2 will always be different station name and the station list in Sheet 1 will change with differing station name.

The code I am using is:

Highlight Row And Column Of Active Cell In Large Spreadsheets

Apr 4, 2013

Is there a way to highlight the row and column of the active cell? The highlighting will move as the active cell is moved around the spread sheet. I have a newbie manager that is bugging the pea-turkey out of me! He wants to be able to easily see where he is within some of our sheets while he is in a vehicle or outside on a job site...seems like an "accessibility" type issue, but can't find anything in Excel "Options."

Highlight Column And Row Of Active Cell But Retaining Previous Formats

Feb 28, 2014

I have found this code by searching witch is perfect

Code:
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Cells.Interior.ColorIndex = 0
With Target 'With the cell that was selected,
.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = 8
.EntireColumn.Interior.ColorIndex = 8
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

The point is that i want to retain the previous formatting of cells when i select another cell. And also i would like to create a switch to turn the Worksheet_SelectionChange event on and off. The tricky part is here i guess, becouse i would like when turned off to retain the previous formatting also.

Excel 2007 :: Highlighting Row Of Table Of Active Cell

May 10, 2013

I am trying to create a VBA code that will automatically highlight the row of an Excel table (2007) of the active cell. So far I have this:

Code:
If Not Intersect(ActiveCell, Range("Table_Name")) Is Nothing Then
Range("A" & Target.Row & ":EJ" & Target.Row).Interior.Color = 10092543
End If

Where the columns A and EJ represent the size of the table. But I would like to automate the column choices so that if the table has columns added or removed, the code still works. Is there a way to just reference a row of a table?

Excel 2010 :: Macro To Filter Column Based On Active Cell Value?

Feb 25, 2014

I work on an excel spreadsheet all day and I'm constantly cuting and pasting a value to filter another column. I would love to have a macro button that would automatically do this.

The job card sheets are labled 'Page 1' through to 'Page 175'. As I am working on each job card sheet I need to filter column on another sheet within the same workbook. This is indicated on the attached picture.

So in a perfect world as I would enter in the PLANT ID number on to any job card, then hit a macro button on the toolbar and the Pole No column would then be filtered by the value in the PLANT ID cell.

As there are multiple job cards the macro would probably need to use the 'active cell' value to filter by. But as you can probably tell I'm no expert so you judge the best way to do it.

Excel 2010 :: Icon Conditional Formatting Not Working When Formula Present In Active Cell?

Mar 20, 2014

I am trying to apply icon conditional formatting in a cell. The cell contains the following formula: =VLOOKUP(D20,'owssvr(1)'!O:W,9,FALSE The formula results in a "2", "1", "0" or "-1" in the cell. The icon conditional formatting is not working at all (no icon appears). I have the conditional formatting setup as numbers Green 2, Yellow 1,0 etc based on value. If I delete the formula and just type in any of those numbers directly, it works. I have changed my cells to "number" and it still does not work.

Formula With Offset From Active Cell And Sum Until Blank Cell

Dec 24, 2013

I have a formula in cel B1 : =SUM(A2:A100) / A1

I would like to use this formula many times in the sheet, so I would need a reference to the cell the formula is in, and have the SUM range until the next empty cell one column to the left.

So I would need something like (literally):

=SUM(Offset activecell (1,-1) : Offset activecell (1, (look for next empty cell -1)) / Offset activecell (0,-1)

Identify Active Cell And Use The Column To Add Formula To Another Cell

Dec 1, 2009

I have a range of unlocked cells (B5:S10) that users enter data in. This sum of this data is then charted. The formula (sum) in a cell equals zero even when there is no data entered by the user. This zero is then charted.

I need to be able to plot the zeros if the user enters zeros but not plot the zero if the cells are blank.

What I was attempting to do is to use the worksheet change event to add the formulas to a cell so that the chart does not plot the value until something was added.

In my change event I need to know that a cell in the range (B5:S10) was changed and that if it was D7 (for example) that I need a formula enterd in D11 [=SUM(D5:D10)]. If it was I5 then the formula would have to go in I11 [=SUM(I5:I10)].

VBA - Find Cell Containing Variable - First Result Above Active Cell?

Dec 26, 2012

Need to find the first cell above the active cell containing any sort of variable (integer, string value, cell fill colour, named range, etc...).

For example, a column contains multiple integer values between 1 and 10. I would like the macro to "locate" a specified value, say 3. Ideally the macro will select the first cell matching this criteria, located above the active cell. Once located, the resulting cell will be added to a range to be copy-pasted to a new worksheet.

I am planning to use this code for various applications in a workbook I am creating. At present the code will be used to locate string values, and cell fill colours. It is also likely this will extend to other types of variables in the future.

I've found information relating to the find function, but nothing specifically to find the first result above the active cell.

Go To First Cell In List That Matches Contents Of Active Cell

Feb 20, 2007

I am just learning to use VBA and this may be the most simple task ever, but I can't figure it out. I've searched for all of the keywords I can think of, but can't find a solution...

I have a list of names in a sheet. Other columns in this sheet contain data like amount charged, amount paid, etc. This sheet must be manually updated (because the other program won't export the information I need) periodically to ensure proper billing/payment application in the original software (all transactions are handled by other people that I don't trust).

I sort the list so that the all names that are the same (ie John Doe) are together.

A short example list looks like this:

Jeremy Apple
John Doe
John Doe
John Doe
Jimmy Kravitz
Jimmy Kravitz

In updating my sheet, I set up a macro that will input todays date in one of the columns for all occurences of that name (so, every row that contains John Doe in column B, column V will have todays date in it).

Currently, in order for my macro to work properly, I have to manually make the activecell the first occurrence of 'John Doe'. When I'm ready to update 'Jimmy Kravitz', I have to select the first occurrence of 'Jimmy Kravitz' and so on.

Here's my question - Is there a way to use a VBA macro to find the first occurrence of 'John Doe' (and automatically 'know' which name I am updating)? Basically, I need a macro that will take the information that is in the cell in column B in the active row, find the first row that has that same name, and make that cell (column B) the active cell...

Return Maximum Of Active Cell & Arbitrary Value To Cell

Nov 18, 2007

It should do this on the click of a button.
