Use Data Entry / Search / Edit For Spreadsheet On Excel
Aug 9, 2012I have created an example of a "Waiting List" for the college, everything I had done seemed to be working before I left for my holiday (apart from the search facility as I was still doing some problem solving, compiling and coding for it).
The Idea is to : Open Excel Document and be greeted by the "Hello" Userform
[Problem #1: This does not automatically show since I have returned from holiday, though there seemed to be no problem with it prior my escape.]Choose from three options;"Save and Exit" saves any changes on/in the database and closes the document"Insert Data" opens "Userform1" to allow users to enter a new row under the exsisting rows of data.
[Problem #2: The data in the sheet was all entered using this feature, but yet again since I have returned from holiday it keeps adding the data only on row 2]
[Problem #3: How to do Auto Formatting i.e. Postcode in Capital Letters]"Search" will open the "Search" userform which I hope to allow users to choose up to three column headings and enter the value to search that column with the parallel textbox value.
[Problem #4: The data which meets the criteria the most is listed into the listbox, if you select a piece of data (double click or "selected") it opens a new userformThe "Edit/Enrol" Userform allows user to Edit, Enrol or archive the row of data.the last Userform I created "Course" is for an admin of the workbook to choose a course and it be auto populated by the information in the worksheet "Code" and create a Mail Merge.
Any Way To Have Multiple Users Edit Excel Spreadsheet When On Company Server?
Sep 25, 2013Not exactly what year of Microsoft Excel we have at work buts its between 2007 to 2010.
Doing our weekly KPI on a friday is super stressful and if there is a way so multiple users can edit the excel spreadsheet at the same time?
Because with our excel spreadsheet only one person can edit the document at a time very frustrating at the end of a day on a friday.
Is it just Microsoft not allowing more than one editor at a time?

Excel 2007 :: Can't Edit Cell - Unprotected Button On Changes Group Tab Grayed Out?
Jul 28, 2014I'm trying to change a cell in a 2007 workbook but I'm getting this message:
"the cell or chart that you are trying to change is protected and therefore read only. To modify a protected cell or chart first remove the protection using the unprotect sheet command (review tab, changes group) you may be prompted for a password."
However, the unprotect button on the changes group tab is greyed out (the protect button is available though). The workbook isn't password protected and I'm not being asked for a password. What am I missing?
Edit Query Using Query Wizard
Apr 25, 2006I created an Ms Excel Database Query to bring in data from MS Access. (versions 2002 of MS Excel and Ms Access). The query works fine initially. I can right click, choose Edit Query and change my criteria. Results are returned almost instantly.
My problem is that, once I save the workbook, or autosave happens, I get an error when I right-click to Edit Query: This query cannot be edited by the Query Wizard..
Excel 2007 :: VBA SQL Query Length?
Feb 16, 2012I've inherited an SQL server database which imports data from a multitude of spreadsheets each night. Unfortunately the previous data is not deleted from the database or spreadsheets, so there are duplicated records throughout the database. The method they have been using to get data out is to "select distinct", which gets around the problem (not my preferred solution).
I now need to produce an invoice from the database, so I select distinct records for the previous month (based on date) from, say, the TRUCKING table into a TEMP table, so I can do my calculations from there.
But there are a couple of columns which prevent me from getting only unique records. They are the unique ID column and the TIMESTAMP column they have added.
If I try to select all the individual columns, except for the ID and TIMESTAMP, the string length goes over 256 chars and the query truncates.
So I tried "SELECT DISTINCT * FROM TRUCKING WHERE etc etc" but I get the ID and TIMESTAMP fields, which defeats the purpose, and I get duplicate records.
Is there a way to say, for instance, SELECT ALL EXCEPT the fields I don't want?

Excel 2007 :: How To Use Query Tables With Multiple Web Pages
Apr 22, 2014I'm trying to query a web site and export the data to a single sheet in Excel. I've used the record macro function in Excel (2007) and come up with the following but I want to query over 20 pages from this site and wondered if there was any way in looping this macro to do the hard work for me;
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"URL;http://www.futwiz.com/en/players", Destination:=Range("$A$1"))
.Name = "players_1"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
[Code] ........
On the second page the URL changes to;
URL;FIFA 14 Ultimate Team Players - FUTWIZ
and the .Name field changes to;
.Name = "players?page=1_1"
and on the 3rd page I get;
URL;FIFA 14 Ultimate Team Players - FUTWIZ
and..
.Name = "players?page=2"
Excel 2007 :: Data Validation Query - Sum Of Two Cells Less Than A Set Number?
Jan 6, 2014I am wanting to create a validation rule so when two cells are added the together the answer must be less than or equal to 14:00 - otherwise a message box will appear
So for example if H7+I7 gives an answer of 13:00 in J7, that's OK, but if the answer is 15:00, the error box will appear. I know that data validation doesnt work on a cell that already has a formula so I'm hoping to use K7 for the Validation and then hide the column

Excel 2007 :: Workbook Use One Data Connection With Different SQL Query For Each Worksheet?
Oct 13, 2013I'm trying to build a workbook (2007) with multiple worksheets where each worksheet corresponds to a different query/dataset pulling data from the one database.
I would have expected that you could define the one data connection object and then specify the SQL that each worksheet table will invoke. The apparent structure of having the query coupled to the connection object is confounding me. I'm therefore trying to set up a separate connection for each of the worksheets and Excel is getting tied up in knots.
Edit Web Query - Get Data From Web
May 10, 2014i have a worksheet that gets data from web - its automated, but the website goes through a tunnel - with security - requires username and password
the Query Runs ok and smooth but i have to login manually by right clicking on a table where the query is and selecting "Edit Query" so i can login, excel vba doesnt save passwords for that part...
one way i find it possible to automate that part too would be to use maybe like the sendkeys statement to pop up the context menu from right clicking the mouse button, or like the options button on the keyboard.
I found this one:
[Code] .....
It works but the context menu comes exactly from where the current mouse position is..
I needed it to do the right click on a specific range in the worksheet (where the web query is)..

Excel 2007 :: Add Attachment To Spreadsheet That Can Be Accessed By Others?

She emailed the spreadsheet to me and it works fine, I can enter data without problems. Whenever she tries to use it she just can't enter any data.

Excel 2007 :: Spreadsheet For Taking Class Attendance?
Sep 10, 2013I've got an Excel 2007 spreadsheet that I want to use to take the attendance in the school where I teach. I've got it more or less the way I want it, but there are 2 improvements I'd like to make:
1. I don't want to have press Enter to go down to the next cell. If a kid is present, I want to press 'p' and automatically be one cell lower.
2. When I open the spreadsheet (which contains multiple worksheets for different classes), I'd like it to open at today's date on the left regardless of which worksheet I go to (I've frozen the first four columns, so I'd like 'today's column' to appear next to them). I've put the dates in row 1. I've put the dates in the format ddd, d/m/y. (I don't know if that info makes any difference, hence I'm including it). I've already looked up some posts on this and copied and pasted a few different suggestions, but none worked.
Excel 2007 :: Locate A Chart In Large Spreadsheet?
Nov 16, 2011I have inherited a series of Word reports containing links to charts in several Excel files. I can tell by the link in Word that one of the charts is named 'Chart 6'. Is there an easy way to locate which chart in the Excel file is 'Chart 6' (and on and on for all of the other charts linked in the Word doc)? There are upwards of 21 charts in each Excel file linked to each of the Word reports. I am using 2007 but the files are in 2003 format because of limitations of the program from which the data comes for the charts.

in the Excel Spreadsheet from columns C to F "a) b) c) d)" was not typed but in the word document it automatically appears before the choices encoded in excel.

View 9 Replies View RelatedPass Parameter From Excel Through MS Query To MS Access Query
Nov 26, 2012I have an MS Access query that contains a parameter. The parameter is a date field, and I have configured that in the Access query. If I run the query within the MS Access user interface, it prompts me for the paramater value as expected, and runs just fine. However, I want to connect to this query from within Excel as a data source.
I have created a connection to the Access file using ODBC from within Excel. In the MS Query window, I am merely selecting all of the fields resident in the MS Access query, and returning all values. In other words, there is no selection criteria in the MS Query. I have done this many times with Access queries that DO NOT contain a parameter, and everything works fine. However, in this instance, I need to pass a parameter through to MS Access in order for the query to run. At the moment, I get the "Too Few Paramaters...1 expected" error message. This makes sense, because I haven't figured out how to pass the paramater to MS Access.
Is there a way to structure this that does not involve VB code? If so, I'd love to know how. I have tried creating parameters in MS-Query with the same name, but although I get the prompt it doesn't connect with the Access query as the source for the parameter value.
If the solution requires using code, I'm good with VB Code in Excel...is there VB for Excel code that could make this happen?
Failing that, I guess there must be (I've seen a few in my search thus far) Access VB Code that can make this work. I'm very rusty using VB with Access, so this is my least favored solution. However, if this is the only option, keep in mind that I need to pass the paramater ultimately from a user who will initiate the process using Excel.

Add Spreadsheet While Executing Query

I know how to do it via opening a text file and importing, but do not know how to do it with the use of a query.
