Can I retrieve, from VBA, the exact value of a cell?
If in A1 I write 0.12348 with general, number or text format, from vba with MsgBox ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) I obtain 0.12348.
If in A1 write 0.12348 with currency or accounting formats, from vba with MsgBox ActiveSheet.Cells(1, 1) I obtain 0.1235.
Naturally, I need retrieve complete values from cells with format accounting?
My Excel 2010!
I am having a terrible time with Excel today. The version I'm using is Excel 2010.
I just want a simple division formula in a cell, formatted to accounting. This should be really easy, but it isn't reacting the normal way.
The simple division is =13588/12
The output in accounting format should be 1,132.33.
Every time I enter this formula into a cell that is pre-formatted to accounting, the result is 1132 1/3. It also erases my formula and replaces it with the value.
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.
My Excel 2007 has "auto complete with a drop down list". When I type in the first character, a drop down list appears listing all the entries in that column tha start with that character. I click on one of the entries and the cell is "auto completed" with that entry. Sure is handy. I try to find that functionally in Excell at work, Office Professional 2010, and no bueno for kaki.

I have a spreadsheet witht the following design:
Column A = Date
Column B = Value 1
Column C = Value 2
I have a folder with excel files named by date (e.g. 081212 = 8th December 12). Within each of those files is Value 1 and Value 2. They are always in the same cell (B6= Value 1, B16= Value 2).
How can i create a macro/script where the Values in Column B and Column C in my spreadsheet are automatically updated where there is a Date in Column A but no values in Column B or C?
In other words, i need the script to read the date in Column A and if Column B and Column C are blank, then it needs to find the corresponding date excel file and copy Value 1 and Value 2 into the cells in my spreadsheet.

What's a proper way - in Excel VBA - to get the current folder *without* the preceding folders/path?
For example from folder "C:oracleora81sqlplusdemo" I'd like to retrieve "demo".

CurrentFolder = = DirNames(UBound(DirNames))
It works, but I suspect something exists specifically for this one.

Trying to insert a row and window popped out -Large Operation. " The operation you are about to perform effects a large number of cells and may take a significant amount of time to complete. Are you sure you want to continue?" I pressed ok , then, says "Excel cannot complete thsi task with available resources. Choose less data or close other applications. "
I have two excel sheets, one has partial information (displayName, title, company, streetAddress, city, state, postalCode, Pager, homephone, fax) the other has the missing information that I need on the first sheet.
Sheet 1 (DB1, has partial info) and Sheet 2 (DB2, has the missing info). I need to somehow link these two, and what they both have in common is name. DB1 has "displayName" which is just First Name Last Name (e.g. John Smith). DB2 has First Name and Last Name, but i'll concatenate that to a new column named "displayName" ( which I assume will be needed to link? ).
The missing information in DB1 is title / streetAddress / city / postal code. DB2 has "Location" (which is a company code, and I want to replace the code with the address, city, postal code) and "Group" (which is title).
To make it easier, I could just do a find and replace on DB2 (e.g. A01-DFW-HWY67) and do it that way right? Or is there any easier way to do that?
Other than that though, how would I link DB1 and DB2, using displayName and fill out DB1 with the information from DB2?
I have VBA code that attempts to delete an entire row from my worksheet:
Code:
Cells(3,1).Select
Selection.EntireRow.Delete
This works fine on small data sets, but on larger data sets it gives me the error message, "Excel cannot complete this task with available resources". This happens even when I try to do the deletion manually (without VBA code). Clearly, the code itself is not the problem.
My document has about 250,000 rows and 2,500 columns. While this is big, it is significantly smaller than Excel's documented limit of 1,048,576 rows and 16,384 columns.
I am using Excel 2007. My computer has 2GB of RAM but even when I try it on a computer which has 8GB of RAM it gives me the same error. If I "ClearContents" instead of "Delete" it works fine. For my purposes, however, deletion is entirely necessary.
When I use the mouse pointer to select a cell I can't use the arrow keys to move to another cell while the pointer is over the cell and I can't edit the cell while the pointer is over the cell. If I move the pointer away from the cell then I can move around and edit as normal therefore I don't think this is a scroll lock issue.
This issue also happens when I select a tab. If I select a tab and then leave the pointer over the tab I selected then I can't use the arrow keys to move around the worksheet or edit a cell; if I move the pointer away from the cell then I can move around and edit as normal.

I've created a search box for a price list, but some of the values come up with #REF. After many attempts I noticed that each of the formulas I created on the price list page came up with a different result for the values highlighted in each column. The formula is the same for each column, the column numbers being the
only difference - for instance:
Column A = code - the formula is =OFFSET(Pricelist!$A$3,0,0,COUNTA(Pricelist!$A:$A)-1).
Column D = colour - the formula is the same, but reads $D$3 and $D:$D.
When I go to Name Manager and check this formula, it only selects the first 105 entries in the column. There are about 380 entries and more may be added at various stages.
I have formulas for five other columns and they do exactly the same thing, but each column stops at a different entry. I'm working in Excel 2007, but it's a 2003 document.
Is it possible to retrieve an arrary of the autofilter criteria. I know this is possible in pre 2007 but with 2007 onwards I can't find a way of doing it.
I know I can get all the available items in a list by using the scripting.dictionary and also by using the visible cells I could see what could be filtered but that is not really accurate for what I want.
E.G.
If I have multiple columns and look at the filtered information in one column I can retrieve an array of the visible cells from that column but that is not necessarily the criteria that is in the column. i.E. If another column has a filter rows may be filtered that would have otherwise been visible.

I have an Excel 2010 spreadsheet consisting of many worksheets (20 or so). Each of these worksheets contain detail level data regarding different projects. One of the columns in these worksheets is the 'Status' column (column F). There is conditional formatting on this column where if the text is 'G' then change background to a green color, 'Y'=yellow, 'R'=Red and 'U'=Grey.
The first worksheet is a summary sheet that I would like to pull information from each of the detail worksheet's columns B, D, E, G and H if the status column (Column F) is 'R' or 'Y'.
The number of rows in the detail worksheet can change each week (as few as 0 and as many as 100)
I have a range of cells each containing a name. Based on a number that has to be entered manually I want excel to return the names concatenated in one cell. So for example:
Number of variable entered: 5
q9001
q9002
q9003
q9004
q9005
q9006
etc.
Should give me: "q9001 q9002 q9003 q9004 q9005"
I have been trying to work with formulas using IF and CONCAT functions. But so far I haven't figured out how to have excel return me the correct amount of variables for each separate number that can be entered seeing the number of variables entered can vary from 1 up to 50.

I am trying to create a sheet in XL 2010.
In Column A each cell will contain a date (differnet from other cells in that column) when inspection was last done.
Column B is when the weekly inspection is due.
Column C is when bi-weekly inspection is due.
Column D is when monthly inspection is due.
Column E is when 6 monthly inspection is due.
I need a formula to change the colour of cells B, C, D & E when each inspection is due depending on the date entered in A
I am hoping its possible that the cell colour can stay for 2 days after the due date and then return back to blank after the second day.
For example if cell A1 has a date of January 1 2013 then on January 8 2013 cell B1 turns red then on January 10 2013 the cell returns back to normal.
