I am using excel 2010 and cant see the paste special options in any of the worksheets. If I restart my laptop then it shows up. I noticed that after opening Internet explorer, the options disappear once again and restarting the system brings them back.
View 1 RepliesWhen I copy a cell with CTRL-C and paste elsewhere, a small clipboard pop-up appears to give paste options. The pop-up is the size of an average 'starter' cell. I find it a nuisance as it always covers a cell I might want to paste into, but I cannot see that cell anymore because of the pop-up. How can I get rid of the pop-up?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm currently using Excel 2010. Before, when ctrl+v'ing a cell that wasn't a number (but was, for example, a function), I could immediately after press ctrl, bring up a paste menu, and press v to paste as a value.
So before, if I had a range of cells that were functions (say something simple like "=D3/E3" on F3 and dragged down), I could do the following to paste the range into another worksheet:
1. Ctrl+shift+down to select the entire range
2. Ctrl+C
3. Ctrl+V into a different worksheet (at which point everything shows up as either "#DIV/0!" or as the wrong number, depending on cells to the left)
4. Ctrl (brings up the paste menu)
5. V (selects "values")
6. The entire range is now pasted as values, and not as functions
Recently, however, clicking on "ctrl" after pasting brings up no paste menu. I haven't changed any settings. I will lovingly serenade the first (and second, and third) man (or woman) that figure out what settings I must change or what I must do differently.
Not sure if it's me or a new change in excel 2010, yet creating a simple macro as listed below does not work.
Outside of macro I will select a range of data and copy.
Then, using macro I'd like i to perform: paste special values, in the current cell
I am trying to copy one worksheet using the "move/copy" function that is available when you right click a tab name and want to copy the worksheet in the same workbook
The steps I'm using are:
1. Right click the tab name
2. Select Move or Copy,
3. Select Create a Copy
4. Click OK
Doing all of the above does not work. When the new worksheet opens, all columns are the same width. It seems to be stuck on "autofit column width" setting of 8.5. The original worksheet is several columns wide all with different width settings.
I've also used Copy, Paste Special and selected column widths and that does not work either.
I have recently found that when I copy ranges (usually containing formulas), I only have the option of copying these ranges as text ( or vales). I can no longer copy formulas , (or formats, col width etc) in my excel worksheets.
This problem has only recently occurred and applies whether i have one or many spreadsheets open.
I would like to implement specific cell ranges from two specific worksheets each within 33 workbooks (which all have several tabs) into a summary page in a separate workbook.
The cell ranges are going across my spreadsheet in rows and I would like for them to transpose into a columns depending on the data which I have separated by catergory on the summary page. They are all on the same location in each workbook which is separated by country. The cell ranges are E26:P37 and I would like to transpose them and have them put below eachother without overwriting for my format on the summary page, how I can put this together in a macro?
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 often need to use Paste Special . .. Values, using Excel 2003. So I recorded a Macro into "Personal.xls" and assigned a shortcut key combination "CTRL-Shift-V" so that it would always be available. I first select one or more cells and hit CTRL-C to copy to clipboard, click on another cell, then hit CTRL-Shift-V to run the following macro:
VB : Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
It often works . . . and it often fails. When it is working it seems to keep working over and over. When it is failing it keeps failing. So it is almost as if there are two "modes" of operation, which for lack of terms, for this post I will coin the terms "fail mode" and "fixed mode". Once I am in one of the two modes, it stays there for a while. When it is in the "fail mode", I always get the dreaded:
Run-time error 1004: "Pastespecial method of Range class failed".
Since this problem is very intermittent, I believe this is why there are so many posts in the Internet about this, and so many people are replying back "it works fine for me". I have seen many solutions offered but none work so far for just a simple shortcut key to do a PasteSpecial :Values. Some solutions "work" . . . such as adding the PasteSpecial button to the Toolbar, or pressing ALT-E-S-V <Enter> - but both of these bring up the Paste Special dialog box which I want to avoid.
I spent days trying the many solutions offered but so far all I have found is a trick to convert Excel from "fail mode" to "fixed mode". The trick is to add a line to the macro to first do a "Paste Special: Format:
VB:
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
Then select and copy any cell/s, click on another cell, and run the macro just ONCE - it will paste the formatted value successfully and you are now in the "fixed mode". Now you can remove the PasteSpecial:Format line that you just added, to get back to the original macro with just the "Paste Special: Values" line:
VB : Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
Now Excel is in the "fixed mode" and the original macro will once again start working properly. BUT only for a while !! Then some time later, usually within a day or a couple hours . . . Excel goes back into that "mode" where once again the macro fails repeatedly. I have been unable to isolate what causes the mode to return to failure.
Any simple way to either change the code so that it ALWAYS is successful, why this often is not successful ? I believe that the fact that adding in the Paste Special : Format code and running it just once to fix the problem, also could be a clue as to what causes this problem to "sometimes" occur.
Copy over data from different workbooks and using paste special values to paste it into a new workbook using a macro. Here is what I have and what I am looking for:
My file path is
C:Documents and SettingsMy DocumentsProjectCostsDecember12
In this folder I have workbooks called:
Function1
Function2
Function3
In each workbook I have 4 worksheets
Cashable12-13
NonCashable12-13
Total12-13
GrandTotal12-13
I also have a workbook called DecMonthlyTotal in the same folder with the same named worksheets.
I am looking for a macro to be placed in the DecMonthlyTotal that will pull the data from the Cashable12-13 worksheets from Function1, Function2 and Function3 and paste special the values into workbook DecMonthlyTotal, worksheet name Cashable12-13, it will also pull the data from the NonCashable12-13 worksheets from Function1, Function2 and Function3 and paste special the values into workbook DecMonthlyTotal, worksheet name NonCashable12-13
Both the Cashable12-13 and the NonCashable12-13 have Columns A - G The row that the macro should start the copying from is Row 3 for each of the workbooks; however I don't have an end row for the workbooks as this will vary.
I am using Excel version 2003.
I am using Excel 2010 and I have a password protected workbook with password protected sheets that uses several macros. Most of them, in order to run, have to un-protect the sheet and then re-protect it again. This has been accomplished easily enough by adding ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:= "mypassword" and ActiveSheet.Protect Password:= "mypassword" to the appropriate places in the script. All of my macros, which do various things like sorting and moving data, deleting blank rows, displaying dialog boxes containing warning messages etc. run fine.
My problem is this: when I password protect the sheets manually, I have checked the following options in the "Protect Sheet" dialog box. Under "Allow users of this worksheet to" I have checked 1)Select unlocked cells and 2)Format cells. After entering my password and closing the dialog box my sheet is protected, but I can edit cells in the manner my allowances permit. However, once I run any of the macros that un-protect and re-protect the sheet, I remain able to select and edit unlocked cells (practically, for my purposes, this means that I can input data which will appear in the default font size and color of the sheet) but I cannot format cells (which, practically, for my purposes would allow me to occasionally change the font color and size of the data). Naturally, after running a macro, the other cell-formatting options are unavailable to me as well. Is there any way to get my manual selections to remain in place after running a macro that functions as mine do? Or is there any way to make my manual selections the default settings for a protected sheet?
I am running Excel 2010. I have two separate instances of Excel running. I select data and copy it, and then paste it into the other excel spreadsheet in a separate instance. The clipboard data DOES NOT paste the desired data, instead it pastes the item most recently copied in the separate Excel instance that I am trying to paste into. It's as if the excel instance has it's own clipboard, and is unable to use the same clipboard the other Excel instance is using. Copy and paste functions / clipboard seems to working perfectly outside of the Excel program.

I have a sheet with a number of lists validated drop down boxes. The sheet is networked and works fine.
Problem other users as they are entering information into the required cells they are copying and pasting. Then the inevitable occurs they paste data into the wrong cells the validation from the original cell is pasted as well. Is there a way I can set paste special values only to be the default for the full sheet.
Unfortunately we use excel 97 in the office.
I've tried to change the line highlighted in red to 'Sheets("Financial Accounts").Pastespecial After:=Sheets("changes")' but the macro crashes.

I have a system running Windows 7 Professional (32 bit) and MS Office 2010.
In Excel 2010, I have a spreadsheet that contains several hundred rows of data. When I cut and paste a section of data, Excel jumps to the top of the spreadsheet. This does not happen when I copy/paste, just cut/paste.
I'm using Microsoft 2010 and as like many others here I cannot find a way to paste into visible cells only i.e. the data I want to add to my variables is only available for every five years, but my data ranges 1990-2010 each year, so I have filtered my data to the 1990,1995,2000,2005,2010 so that I can paste the new data in, but of course it pastes into 1991 1992 1993 etc instead of the filtered results.
I've tried the find and select visible cells only but it says when you try and paste into them that it is not possible for more than one cell at a time.
The problem is that whenever I have any browser open, IE, Chrome, Firefox, etc... the Cut & Paste, Copy & Paste function does not work correctly in Excel 2010.
When I Cut or Copy the blinking marquee around my selection briefly appears and then disappears. When I try to paste, I only have two options under the paste special function: Unicode Text and Text, same with cut and paste, however, the text doesn't actually cut, it only copies.
As soon as I close down any of the mentioned browsers, the full functionality of the cut/copy & paste functions are restored, no need to restart excel.
I need to have open a browser most of the time for work as our system is web based, so closing and re-opening is more than just an annoyance.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working in Excel 2010 on a sheet that will be compiling data from a different worksheet based on the current month. I'm using the formula:
=IF(INDIRECT($K$7&"!C45")>"",INDIRECT($K$7&"!C45"),"")
to complete the field using the other sheets value if it's not empty, where $K$7 references a worksheet name based on the previous month.
It's working just fine, but I want to copy and paste it into other cells having the referenced cell, C45, change as I move it around the sheet (if I copy and paste it 3 cells to the right it would become =IF(INDIRECT($K$7&"!C48")>"",INDIRECT($K$7&"!C48"),"").
I haven't been able to find a way to make the C45 cell reference dynamic while copying and pasting. It would save me a ton of time if I could.
I have found instructions on the Net for stopping that rather intrusive 'Paste Options' pop-up button appearing in Excel 2003, 2007 and 2010 (I think; or it might have been 2011). But I have Excel 2008, and none of the instructions I have found applies. I cannot find a Microsoft Office button (other than the icon of the folder in Applications); nor is there 'Options' in the File menu. I use a Mac mini (Intel) with OS 10.8.4 (Mountain Lion).

Excel 2010, Windows 8.1. I want to retrieve a photo from a folder and paste it into a cell. I have the paste and format process figured out but I'm having trouble putting the file path together to retrieve the photo. If I use the full path, the statement below retrieves "IMAG1234.jpg" and puts it where I want it.
ActSheet.Pictures.Insert("C:UsersEljafeDocuments1-QCReport_PhotosIMAG1234.jpg").Select
But if I have a different photo file name as a string in a cell (e.g. "IMAG5678.jpg") what is the syntax to attach it to the file path? i.e
ActSheet.Pictures.Insert("C:UsersEljafeDocuments1-QCReport_Photos") & "IMAG5678.jpg".Select '(which of course doesn't work)
So, I have a path but I want to attach different photo number to the path from a sting in a cell.

I have been using excel for years but have always managed to resolve issues using formula's etc but now i have had to step into the realms of macro's. I am slowly learning but urgently need help with the below problem which is bound to be a simple solution.
I have compiled a workbook for users to administrate on a daily basis. (each worksheet is a different day of the month but the same template) There are a few hidden worksheets as the info is extracted from these to run reports.
The issue/s i have is that administrators use cut, copy and paste to repeat data opposed to retyping, this messes formats, formulas and validation up. I have used a macro from the net to remove this option and it works fine. Problem is that if they do not enable macro's this will cease to be an option.
I understand that you cannot remove the option of enabling macro's but you can force. Again used a macro from the web that if you don't enable it only shows a welcome page saying that macro's need to be enabled to use. (all others are hidden) if macro's are enabled the welcome page disappears and the worksheets 1-31 reappear. Again this worked fine.
I tried putting both macro's into the same workbook but kept coming up with errors, each one i resolved led to another.
So short of it i need a instructions/macro to force macros and remove cut copy and paste.
copy content from particular cells in the current sheet to the next available row in another sheet. I need to Paste the Values as the cells I am copying are equations. It was working great until I tried using it again today. For some reason I get the following error:

How would the code be changed below to be Paste Special Value?

Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End With

When I tried to Copy>Paste Special > Formats or Values of more than One row this line highlights
If Len(.Value) Len(Trim(.Value)) Then
That is, if I select C3:Q3, Copy, then select C10:C15 and try to do a Paste Special that is when it gives me an error 13: Type mismatch.
If I just select C10 and do the Paste Special, it's just fine.
