Excel 2007
I have this simple formula: =IF(SEARCH("ABC",BQ239,1)>0,"Found", "Not Found")
Instead of saying Not Found when the value is not in the cell BQ239 text string I get #VALUE! returned
how do I get it to say "Not Found"? I searching for a substring that can be anywhere in the string.
In excel 2007, when I do workbook_Activate I want to hide all of the command bars. in 2003 vesion I used
.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Enabled = False
But it is not working for me on 2007.
I have managed to create a command button in excel 2007 that performs a macro upon a click. But, after re-opening the workbook, I am unable to right click on the button to recall the properties window.

I have a Excel 2007 spreadsheet of part numbers and quantities sold. In the spreadsheet we have similar part numbers, but my sumif command is adding these together. the parts are :
0124225031
R124225031
My column of part numbers is formatted as text
My formula is this =SUMIF(Sheet1!H:H,A16,Sheet1!Q:Q) where H is the part number and Q is the quanity
I tried adding a format command in the sumif command, but it returned a 0. =SUMIF(Sheet1!H:H,format(A16,"0"),Sheet1!Q:Q)
better formula and why is excel adding different part numbers together?
We just upgraded to Excel 2007 from Excel 2000 and have run into a challenge relating to labeling a form command button. It appears that the length of text for a command button label has been shortened to 31 characters when setting the name using VBA. No such limitation shows up when I manually create such a button.
Following is the code that used to work to create the button and label in VBA (Excel 2000):
VB:
ActiveSheet.Buttons.Add(2.25, 13.5, 443.25, 17.25).Select
Selection.OnAction = "PatientSelectedButton"
Selection.Name = "CheckFormButton"
[Code] .....
If I change the string I want to use for the label to 32 characters, or less, this code works (Excel 2007).
VB:
ActiveSheet.Buttons.Add(2.25, 13.5, 443.25, 17.25).Select
Selection.OnAction = "PatientSelectedButton"
Selection.Name = "CheckFormButton"
[Code] ....
I have to admit that this is the last item that I thought would break!
Excel 2007 I have a button that will export the worksheet to pdf and save it as Acrobat requires. I have a network folder set up and it saves the file with the name that I have programed in the macro. I would like to have the file name set up to be what is in cell C3 then a space and the specific words.
For example, if C3 contains "123456" I want the file to be named "123456_Warranty Calculator"
I will end up using this in several worksheets which will have a different name as part of the file name (based on the worksheet name).
I would also like to have the last part of the file name be the worksheet name. ie, "Warranty Refund", "PDR Refune", etc.
I will have several users that will be using the workbook and possible saving at the same time and want each person to be able to find the one they saved instead of it being overwritten.

I have a workbook with two worksheets, "Main" and "Control".
Both of them are with hidden tabs (unchecked "show sheet tabs").
On worksheet "Main" I have command button which opens worksheet "Control".
The assigned makro is: Sheets("Control").Select
The problem is: when I open "Control" and close after that the workbook, the next time when I open the workbook "Control" pops-up instead of "Main" even though I do not save it.
1. I need macro on "Main" which will allow me to open "Control".
2. Regardless I "Save" or "Don't Save" "Control" when selected and workbook is closed, to open the workbook always displaying worksheet "Main".
I use Excel 2007 (at home) & 2010 (at office).

I am trying to create a uniform stock database for my company. Thus far, I have 2 worksheets. The first is a face sheet, for the user to interact with. This face sheet has a number of drop down menus on it allowing them to select "Type" and "Size" of the item they need. This information is then translated (by a hidden table) into an item code.
The second sheet contains a list of all the uniform items currently in stock. Each item has its individual code that correlates to the code the face sheet generates.
My question is regarding a search macro.
I want the user to be able to click a command button on the face sheet, labelled "search". This would then take the generated "Item Code" and search for it on the second worksheet. I am aware that it would be very easy for them to simply copy the code into "find" on the second sheet, however it needs to be as easy and quick to use as possible.
Is there any way to tell (from VBA) what GUI command is currently in progress or what the last command used was?
On a wish list perhaps: Application.LastCommand and/or Application.CurrentCommand
Let's say I'm in the "Sheet_Change" event and want to know what caused the change. Was the event triggered by "Delete", "Paste", "Keystrokes" ...
AutoCAD VBA has "Begin_Command (CommandName as String)" and "End_Command (CommandName as String)" events which I find very useful. Basically I'd like to emulate that to the greatest extent possible.
Application.Caller does not seem to work for the stated purpose. I've been searching for a workaround by means of reading the "Undo Stack". Numerous articles written by experts state that the undo stack is not accessible from VBA.
I've considered reading the text from the "Undo" button's caption but it just seems like such a hack ... not that this whole idea isn't a hack
I've got an Excel file that uses 7-zip. It can execute a command line that will use 7-zip to go to a folder and zip each of the folder's files into its own zip file, placing the zips in a single, specified destination folder. I can specify whether to look in the source folder, or to also look in all of the source folder's subdirectories.
Question is, how do I tell 7-zip to just zip ONE file, and how do I tell 7-zip to zip a SPECIFIC LIST of files that I name (instead of looking through a whole folder)? how to use command line...
Code:
Sub a_zip_with_sub_directories()
Shell "cmd /c for /r ""C:Users aiDocumentsmonthly reportsFinal Copies of Monthly Reports"" %i in (*.*) do ""%ProgramFiles%7-Zip7za.exe"" a -tzip ""C:DATA aiipped\%~ni"" ""%i"""
End Sub
Sub a_zip_no_sub_directories()
Shell "cmd /c for %i in (""C:Users aiDocumentsmonthly reportsFinal Copies of Monthly Reports*.*"") do ""%ProgramFiles%7-Zip7za.exe"" a -tzip ""C:DATA aiipped\%~ni"" ""%i"""

I would like to add a command to my macro that will do one simple step: Refresh all FDS Codes
FDS I believe is short for FactSet Data Series. FactSet is an add-in for excel we use at work. The FactSet menu button is in my ribbon and when I choose that add-in, there are a number of actions I can execute. One is to refresh all FDS which is to refresh all cells with formulas that pull in data from our FactSet database.
I tried recording this action but VBA does not show any key strokes from those steps so I think I just experienced one of the many shortfalls of recording macros. Is there a way to write the macro to execute this action? I would think since I am using a FactSet add-in, it would be possible but I don't know where to begin.
Is that possible to return the repeated elements from the range for example

I want to have 2 spreadsheets in File 1.
The first spreadsheet will contain a form that needs to be filled out by a user for a specific car. In the second spreadsheet, I want to have a list of the cars that have already been filled out in a form before.
So example, someone with a car got into an accident and the report is filed under vin:1234 and vin:1234 is added to the list in the second spreadsheet.
A couple days later another accident report is written up, but when the user enters vin:1234 in the form, it will notify the user that vin:1234 has a report already written up on it. The notification also asks if they want to open the file containing vin:1234. When they click 'yes', it will open the file and allow them to either use the current report for their own, or modify what was already entered.
Is this possible to do within excel? I would constantly update spreadsheet 2 with the vins that have been used to keep it as a database.

The code below works perfectly fine but opens and closed the shell each time it is used. I think it woud be quicker if I could reuse it until done and then exit out of it.
Here are 2 examples of a couple different strings I would like to pass into the cmdShell function at various times. I would like to send the first string, perform some measurements and then repeat with the 2nd string.
i.e. shellStr1 = ("cd .. & cd c:ezspi & testdm900 --widn 0x1020 --widv 0x1") then once the shell is open and the directory has been set send shellStr = ("testdm900 --widn 0x1020 --widv 0x5")

How to determine the correct formula for this requirement?
Assuming I have 2 individual excel files and an index excel file (in reality, there are more than hundreds of file). For index excel, once the user enter part number (eg. 1 or 2), the excel will look for the part number excel file and determine vlookup function.
The only problem I have here is I can not make the index file automatically add the part number shown on most left column into the required formula (replace the part number file section).
I tried use the indirect function but this require each file to be opened, which is not possible for actual use. I am looking for a function that can work in closed worksheet.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've recently created a macro which takes a .csv file and scrubs the data and dresses it up for a report. I've finally got it running without any problems and have added it individually to 5 different user accounts on my network as an add-in, but need a way to share it across a computer network without allowing others to edit the file.
The report is generated multiple times a day by the different users, none of whom are very computer literate (not that I am much better, myself), and the macro over-writes the old file each time. I've read that it's possible to simply create a shortcut to the file that automatically opens the spreadsheet in read-only format, which would be perfect for what I'm trying to do, but I haven't been able to get it to work so far.
My current shortcut pathway is similar to this:
"C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice15EXCEL.EXE" /R "C:UsersBenDocumentsOT Master.xlsx"
On my computer at work (Windows 7) the shortcut simply opens the spreadsheet so that anyone can edit it, instead of as a read-only file. On my computer at home (I'm trying to experiment) (windows 8.1) it won't even let me save the shortcut, saying I need to provide administrator permission & then cutting to a window that says "access denied".
I won't have the pathway for the actual file I'm trying to create a shortcut for until tomorrow when I get back to work, but I've formatted it essentially the same, directing to the excel.exe file, running the switch "/R", and then directing it to the actual file location.
The ultimate goal is to have multiple people be able to view the file without locking out those who need to update it.
