I am using Excel 2007. I would like to be able to type "dlta" followed by a space and have autocorrect change it to the symbol for Delta (a triangle). I got it to work in Word because I could right click and paste the symbol in the autocorrect dialogue box. Excel won't let me do that. I also tried typing Alt+68 because I believe that is the code for the symbol I want but all I get is a "D".

I've got a workbook where I need to protect certain cells by locking them.
The trouble is when I do this I lose the ability to apply formatting and to insert symbols in other cells?
I've checked the obvious options for when you're locking cells but nothing seems to be stopping this there.
Is there a reason it disables these options, a work around or am I just being dumb?

how to prevent that autocorrect "feature" in the Excel 2007 VBA IDE? It always deletes the last space I type after a second or so, i.e. moving the cursor to the left whenever I stop typing (to think for a moment or so).

Insert - Object allows me to insert a object (display as icon is used). Is it also possible to insert multiple objects in one go? Via this option I can always only select 1 object.
with the following: The VBA macro I am using, is derived from the excellent "Table of Contents" macro written by Erik Van Geit, a few years ago.
I have a workbook (in Excel 2007, Windows XP) with an Index sheet and 200 other sheets (called ScreenShot1 to ScreenShot200). Each of these 200 sheets has had an image pasted in the top left corner.
At present, using the macro below, a hyperlink is placed in cell A1 on each of these 200 sheets (it's behind the image) that links to cell M1 on the Index sheet. What I would like this macro to do is make each image the hyperlink back to cell M1 on the Index sheet. Please note that the images are not named.
VBA code below,
Sub create_TOC()
Dim i As Integer
Dim msg As String
Dim fc_order As Range
Dim sht As Object

Const Index = "Index"
Const CellLink = "A1"

I am looking for a way of allowing users to edit the existing cells at their will, but simultaneously disabling the option to insert/ delete columns or rows.
By enabling Sheet Protection, I cannot find a way to do it. Can I?
I am on MS Excel 2007 by the way.
I found the way, just unlock all cells in Format Cells, Protection Tab. Then Protect sheet and de-select what you want to disable.
I have a form that collects four pieces of information from the user and places each into columns A, B, C, D on a sheet. I would like to automatically add an option button to column E so that a user could select it and then click a control button to delete the corresponding row.
Is this possible or is there maybe a better way to do this in Excel 2007.
I am currently using MS Excel 2007. Is there a way in VBA to automatically insert missing columns based on a defined series or range of values?
For example, we have a report that displays columns of: Year 2004 to Year 2012 per column (9 columns in total).
Sometimes, it displays missing a year or years (thus; our report has less columns). For example, it only shows 2008 to 2012 (missing 2004 to 2007). At times, it misses some years in between. What we do is manually add those missing years by manually inserting columns then inputting the missing year as their column headers.
Is it posisble for VBA to check if the columns contain all of the defined Year range (for example, you've initially defined: Year 2004 to Year 2012)? Afterwards, all missing columns are automoatically inserted (in chronological order or based on your defined values or range).
Using excel 2007 I've created a new tab and wanted to place the 2003 file menu on it. I don't know how to include it automatically in the tab using a combination of XML and VBA. So I created a button with the callback to run some code. Unfortunately, it still places the item in the Add-in tab. How can I get the undernoted code to operate within my new tab with either XLM or VBA?
Code:
Sub InsertFileMenu2003()
Dim cb As CommandBar
Set cb = Application.CommandBars.Add("xl2003 Menu", , True)
CommandBars("Built-in Menus").Controls("&File").Copy cb
Application.CommandBars("xl2003 Menu").Visible = True
End Sub
Lotus 123 had a function where you could graphically, in a cell, show plus symbols(+) or negative symbols (-) for the value of the data. For example if you had a column of numbers that you calculated from the previous year that indicate the change, Lotus, in the next cell would allow you to graphically display the symbols that indicate the strength of the change. So if your result was a positive ten then ten plus symbols would be shown. If it was -20 then 20 negative symbols would be shown. Now the numbers I am looking at could be 600,00 and I believe there was a way to to proportion the symbols for example for every 100,000 put in one symbol so the result would be 6 (+) signs.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a way to replace periods with colons using VB when a value is entered into a cell ranges. The ranges are
C4:L5
C9:L10
C14:L15
C19:L20
For info, this is an annual timesheet with 13 sheets in the workbook, each hosting 4 weeks of the year.
The cells are formatted as [h]:mm. Making an entry in the autocorrect table to replace . with : does exactly what I want. Unfortunately this is a global Excel setting rather than a single spreadsheet setting. I'm looking for a way to achieve the same using VB. Whenever a cell in this range on any sheet is modified I need that cell to be checked for periods and have them changed to colons.
In short (for example), I want to be able to enter 12.55 in a cell formatted as [h]:mm and have it autocorrect to 12:55 rather than enter a value of 301:12. Is this achievable without autocorrect?. It would need to only check the current cell been modified rather than scan all 4 ranges on all 13 sheets every time any cell is changed.
I am using excel 2003. I need to conditional formatting for the following:
Based on the column A, if it is USD, the next column show $ and the cell in blue
If it is JPY, the next column show Yuan sign and the cell in green
If it is Euro, the next column show Euro Sign and the cell in yellow.
How to make that happen?

I record a macro in Excel 2007 to insert a picture from a file in the active sheet, but when I stop recording it and I went so see the code and there was no code!!!
I did the same in Excel 2003 and the code was like this:
ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert("c:1.jpg").Select
I am working on transfering some code from 2003 to 2007. I have gotten almost everything to work, but am now having an issue with the way it places the pictures into my spreadsheet.
The code asks the user to select a folder containing .jpg files. It then places each of the .jpg photos onto a single spreadsheet. Each picture is suppose to be placed in a different cell. When I step through the code, the active cell changes correctly based on the offsets, but it always pastes each photo in cell B4. Through some research I have found others to see this problem with ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert in 2007.
Following is the
Private Sub BatchProcessThumb2x3()
Msg = "Select a file containing the photos you want to insert."
Directory = GetDirectory(Msg)
If Directory = "" Then Exit Sub
If Right(Directory, 1) "" Then Directory = Directory & ""
I have used the following code behind a projects Command button for some time, and works well in Excel 2002/2003.
It's used to look for and insert a Picture file, located on the users PC, select cell C2, re-size it to fit inside a bordered cell area and then nudge it over, off the border line.
Sub Load_Image()
Dim oPict, PictObj
Dim sImgFileFormat As String
'Open file
GetPict:
oPict = Application.GetOpenFilename("All Pictures (*.tif; *.bmp; *.jpg; *.gif; *.jpeg; *.png; *.cpt; *.tiff),*.tif; *.bmp; *.jpg; *.gif; *.jpeg; *.png; *.cpt; *.tiff")
If oPict = False Then End
Range("C2").Select
Set PictObj = ActiveSheet.Pictures.Insert(oPict)
With PictObj
.ShapeRange.LockAspectRatio = msoFalse
.ShapeRange.Width = 712#
.ShapeRange.Height = 510#
End With
PictObj.Select
With PictObj
Selection.ShapeRange.IncrementLeft 1#
Selection.ShapeRange.IncrementTop 1#
End With
Range("A1").Select
End Sub
Unfortunately, Excel 2007 doesn't seem to identify the Cell reference "C2".
It modifies the Picture size OK but does not position the picture in the correct position.
I've tried re-recording it but 2007 misses most of actions.???
Despite my efforts looking on other forums, I don't seem to find a code that works on both version of Excel.
I just upgraded to Excel 2007 and my macro from Excel 2003 for inserting a picture doesn't work correctly in 2007. I have a command button that states insert picture and when you click it, it will let you insert a picture into the cell and hide the command button. In 2007 it will let you insert the picture, but it isn't centered and expands into other cells and the command button is still visible. The picture appears to be the correct size it just doesn't center itself in the cell and the command button is still visible. Below is the
