Excel 2010 :: Populate Ranges To Facilitate Dynamic Charts Being Generated
Nov 2, 2013
I'm trying to dynamically populate ranges to facilitate dynamic charts being generated.
I use excel 2010 at work, and 2011 for mac at home.
Dynamic chart ranges populated from named ranges as selected in nested indirectly sourced validation lists
I want any selection made in a dependent validation list which contains a list of named ranges to trigger a worksheet_change event which copies the range the selection points to and pastes it into a dynamic range in another column, beginning as a specified cell.I've tried using this, put together from some code examples from similar, but different issues.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range("B2")) Is Nothing Then
Range(Range("B2").Value).Copy
Range("P2").Paste
End If
End Sub
Trouble is, I don't really understand this code. It doesn't appear to do anything when I make a worksheet change in "B2", but I don't know exactly what it is. I suspect that perhaps the fact that "B2" is validated from an indirect source might be difficult?

I am using defined names to build a chart. This is working fine, but I also would like to use a defined name to control the +/- fields for the error bars. The defined names I have set up are correct, and I am able to enter them into the sorce data form but Excel does not display them.

Not sure if there is a way to do this. I'm using excel 2010. I used this function
=INDEX(Sheet5!A1:A149,RANDBETWEEN(1,ROWS(Sheet5!A1:A149)))
I have a list on names that is in the range on Sheet5!A1:A149 I'm using the function to randomly select one of those names.
What I want to do: I want to add the randomly generated name to a range that I can then refer to later to see if that name has already come up. So I know if that name has already been used.

The question is pretty much described in the post title. Here is the situation:
I have a workbook that has data plugged into it manually throughout many sheets, and at the end there are a few sheets with different graphs and charts that are generated by a macro. This macros works perfectly - all the data is accurate and the figures are perfect when compared with a manual count. The problem I have is that the cells where the macro puts the summed values are in a chart that is supposed to create a bar graph. Normally, if I change a value that a bar graph uses I see the bar graph change - but that does not happen with the cells that have values placed in them by the macro. I also have a section that sums the values in the chart to make sure it's running right, and these values do not update automatically as well. The cells have the formula =SUM(B3:B12) and so on, in them. Right now, every time that I run the macro I need to go into the cell with the formula, hit 'enter', and then it does the summation. Is there a way to correct this problem, or is this something that is part of excel?

I have a simple problem. I have many worksheets which all contain data in the first four columns. I want to be able to create a chart (a scatter chart) in the first worksheet which plots the data on that worksheet and then format it how I want it to look. This I can do.
Next, I want to copy and paste that graph into all the other worksheets, but have the pasted graphs display the data in that worksheet.
As it stands, in Excel 2010, all the pasted graphs keep showing the data in the original worksheet irrespective of which worksheet I now have them in. This seems to be different to older versions of Excel and is very annoying and has to be changed by hand which is very time consuming.
How can I make charts that don't have the worksheet name in the cell reference, or how can I paste a chart so that is updates the references to the same row and column but in the new worksheet?
I know I could copy and paste the entire worksheet and then manually copy the new data into that copy of the worksheet - but that is not a real solution to this problem.

I'm working on a macro that does the following:
1. Pull data from the internet
2. Perform calculations on the data
3. Graph the calculated values
- As I run the macro, Excel dies in step 3, where I graph the calculated values.
- It works about 5% of the time and gives me the "Excel has stopped working" error 95% of the time - I can't isolate any difference in the attempts
- I've located the area in the macro where it dies, but I can't identify the exact line since it seems to shift around in this area
- It works perfectly fine when I step through using F8
- I've attempted DoEvents and Application.Wait to debug. Application.Wait for 5 seconds allows the macro to work about 50% of the time and increases in efficiency the longer I wait
- Steps 1 and 2 work perfectly fine (I've used that code in many macros), so I'm pretty sure the issue is in the below code:
I'm running Windows 7, Office 2010
Code:
'Chart variables
Sheets("Summary").Select
Dim ChartRange As Range
[Code]....

I am using Excel 2010 to create a simple chart. When I enter the information, highlight it and select a chart, the chart area appears blank. It doesn't matter what kind of chart I choose- it still appears blank. I've tried going into the Advanced options and indicating for All objects to be shown and that didn't work.

I am using Excel 2010
I have over 800+ pages of chart that only takes up 6 columns and around like 9000+ rows.
I wanted to print this chart on paper and need hardcopies. However, the chart in its current setup prints only on the left half of the page leaving the right half empty.
How do i make use of the full space properly? Each chart has a "page number" on it so I want the chart to print continuously from one half of the page onto the next half and then the second page, third, etc.
Here is a visual demonstration of how things currently are and how i'd like to get them to be:
As you can see, This is the first of many charts and its numbered Page 9 and next one is page 10.
Pic1
How this looks when i try to print, it's only on the left side. right is all blank
Pic2
How i want it to look like upon printing
Pic3
As you can see in the last picture, once page 14 chart has no space it automatically continues chart on right side of page and then moves on to print rest.

I am trying to have the calendar in the second tab of the attached excel file to auto populate based on info in the first tab.
In the first tab, there is the start and end dates of certain projects. The calendar will need to only show the project name of every project being worked on that specific day.
Some days will have more than one project being worked on, the Calendar will just need to list them all under that day. The Start and End dates count as days the project being worked on as well. We will also need the calendar to auto update whenever we modify the dates in the first tab or add/remove projects (rows).

Excel 2007 and very new to VBA...
I have a userform (named "QAReviewForm") with a combobox (named "cboSupName"). I want it to populate with my named range "SupList".
FYI, the SupList is found on sheet 2, "Administrative Menu" in column E. E1 contains the heading "Supervisors", and my named range formula is
Formula:
[Code ] .....
When it runs, my form opens and the combobox is there, but nothing appears as options for me to select (yes, I have some values in column E).

I am using Excel 2010. I created a macro to fill a report. Each section of the report is a department, each department has 53-55 (I forget the exact number) lines underneath the department number. So in the macro, for each department I am trying to use the code block
Code:
If Not IsNothing Then
If WorksheetFunction.CountA(Cells) > 0 Then
LastRow = Range("D60:D114").End(xlUp).Row
[Code]....
The font in red is the variable range. The first department has Range("D58").End(xlUp).Row for example. When I run the second department, it finds the empty cell under the first department's section. For example: I go to run the second department with the range of D60:D114, the cell that is selected by the "Address = "portion of the code is D10, because D4-9 has information in it.
What I need is for it to see that D60 (or D61, etc) is empty and paste the copied information into that cell. I am trying to find a way to do this without using "If cell D60 > 0 Then Activecell.Offset(1,0)", because this is a yearly report being filled in every week.

I have a word template that gives a popup when started for the user to fill out. At present this is okay, but it is hard to maintain. So what I want is to be able to add all needed information in Excel - since our tools have the possibility to export my needed info to this.
I have a spreadsheet in Excel 2010 named 'Input TR'. This info I want in the popup macro in word. When choosing name from a dropdown menu - I want Excel to give me the choices instead of having it in the coded macro. After I have choosen the name - I want the product belonging for this name in the 'Product/Service:' dropdown menu, e.g Test 1 will give the value 1...5. (I will only be able to choose one of them)
Today - everything is coded in the word2010 macro, and thus difficult to maintain.

I am trying to insert a Pivot table with dynamic Name Ranges. It needs to start from Cell B1 as Column A has hidden formulas in them.

I have this workbook in which each sheet refers to a month in a specific year (e.g. Jan12, Nov13), plus an "overall" sheet where I would like to, among other stuff, create a button that would lead me to the sheet refering to "today's month".
Although I know how to create a "static" macro that leads me to a particular sheet, I don't know how to create one in which the sheet it refers to is changing every single month.

I have a question on how I could populate data using a combo box selection in Excel 2010.
For example, I have a table with values in Sheet 1, & below that table there is a combo box whereby another table of values can be populated based on the selection of the combo box.
Maybe to make it clearer...
Table 1
Name | Address | Phone number
Andy | Avenue 2 | 999
John | Road 5 | 998
Combo box (selection of names): John
Data derived from combo box - Table 2
Name | Address | Phone number
John | Road 5 | 998
how I could solve this Also, do let me know if this can be done without the use of VBA.

I am using Excel 2010. I have a spreadsheet where column A is for Quarter, column B is for Employee, and columns C-R are for Codes (Code1; Code2; Code3; etc. through Code15). One line might have no values in the codes columns, another might have values in only Code1, another might have values in Code1 and Code2, and another might have values in all 15 columns.
A B C D E F --> R
1 Qtr Emp Code01 Code02 Code03 Code04 --> to Code15
2 2012.1 Liz CER02 INS12 WKH15
3 2012.2 Jim PIN55 WKH12 WKH19 WKH23
4 2012.2 Jon
5 2012.2 Jim WKH15 WKH23
6 2012.2 Jon PIN55 WKH15 WKH12 CER08
The worksheet is named "ALLAUDITS" and the named ranges are as follows:
Quarter: =offset(allaudits!$A$1,0,0,counta(allaudits!$A:$A),1)
Employee: =offset(allaudits!$B$1,0,0,counta(allaudits!$B:$B),1)
CodeData: =offset(allaudits!$C$1,0,0,counta(allaudits!$C:$C),15)
On another worksheet I need to be able to count how many times WKH15 appears in the CodeData range within a certain Quarter. I tried
=countifs(Quarter,"2012.2",CodeData,"WKH15")
But that didn't work, and from what I can tell in Excel support, it's because the ranges are different sizes. I have over 6500 rows, so I'm trying to avoid having to name all 15 columns and then do a sumproduct on all of them, such as
=sumproduct((Quarter="2012.2")*((Code1="WKH15")+(Code2="WKH15")+.......)))
Calculation would take forever.
I could just create a pivot table based on the "allaudits" worksheet, but I can't figure out how to get the actual codes as the row headers (instead of Code1, Code2, Code3, etc.).

Using Excel 2010.
I am trying to come up with a formula that will return a total average from two columns of dates with criteria. The range will need to cover an entire column as my data is continuously growing and the criteria would have to limit the start date to each month. I have tried
=AVERAGEIFS(DAYS360(A:A,B:B),A:A,">5/1/2012",A:A,"5/1/2012",A:A,"

I have got a table with data from 2005 to date, (for example) For the purpose of what I am doing I need a column which shows date ranges between September 2005 - August 2006 to show as 2005/2006, then September 2006 - August 2007 to show as 2006/2007. I have done some research and seen that, Potentially, a nested 'IF' can be used but it can only be used 7 times which would cause a problem going forward....
Is this the only way or is there a better way (without using VB)?

I'm trying to create a set of three dynamic/dependent drop down lists of date values, based on a set of imported data. Depending on whether the preferred choice is to list all dates in a range or just dates on the 15th, the available start and end drop down lists will change.
In addition, if possible I would then like to display a list of valid dates (not sure if this needs to be VBA).
The attached sheet shows/explains what I am attempting but here it is as well:
If B3 is set to show all dates in the month then:
the first dropdown option for C3 will be the first date of IMPORT (D2)
the first dropdown option for C4 will be the C3 value, to the last date in IMPORT (D) column
If B3 is set to show 15th of the month then:
the dropdown for C3 will be the first date of IMPORT (D) column with a date of 15th the dropdown for C4 will be in the range of C3 to the last date of IMPORT (D) column with a date of 15th only dates of 15th will be listed in both C3 and C4 dropdownlists
General
the dates in IMPORT column D are taken from IMPORT column A, B & C, which will be imported and will always be date sequential the number of rows of date entries will change with every import but there will never be any blank rows between dates the values in IMPORT columns A, B & C will always be numerical, and can be referenced if required [ideally] the LIST OF DATES will be populated with the date range, based on the option selected in B3
I'm fairly familiar with Excel (2010) and I have also done some VBA but I'm new to dynamic, nested dropdown lists and I'm unsure what the most practical way is to achieve this.

I have some VBA that dumps various sheets data into an SQL Database.
Part of that requires me to sanitize all of the fields before they make it to the DB, (at least to prevent the code from breaking itself w/ errant ' characters.
right now my code is as follows
Code:
If InStr(aa, "'") > 0 Then
aa = Replace(aa, "'", "''")
End If
If InStr(bb, "'") > 0 Then
bb = Replace(bb, "'", "''")
[Code] ......
I was hoping to condense it to something like the following, however it is not working how I hoped / want it to. .. I had found somewhere out there that this Eval() function possibly could be used to 'reference' dynamic variables, however it does not appear to work at all anymore, and even then it may only have worked to 'read' and not 'write' to the variable. (Excel 2010, on Windows 7 64-bit).
Code:
itemsToSanitize = "aa,bb,cc,dd,ee,ff,gg,hh,ii,jj,kk,ll,mm,nn,oo,pp,qq,rr,ss,tt,uu,vv,ww,xx,yy,zz,aaa,bbb,ccc,ddd,eee,fff,ggg,hhh"
ITSArray = Split(itemsToSanitize, ",")
For Each thing In ITSArray
If InStr(Eval(thing), "'") > 0 Then
Eval(thing) = Replace(Eval(thing), "'", "''")
End If
Next thing

how to use the offset function to create a dynamic range in Excel 2010. An in-house Excel form I work with spans columns A thru P and has three sections. In Section 2 the user fills in employees who are requesting to work overtime. Section 2 starts row 12 and ends row 61. It's sometimes necessary to add rows to this section. How do I make this section/range dynamic using the offset function?

I have two workbooks I am using. Essentially I am copying values out of one workbook, opening a second workbook, manipulating data and pasting it. Everything is working great but one issue! The first workbook has named ranges in it that I don't want in the second workbook (just values). I don't want them because when I try this operation the second time it asks if I want to use the same name or choose a different name. For some reason it is still copying over all the named ranges (all 343 of them!). Is there a way to not allow it to do that or simply just delete the names before I close the second workbook?
Win 7 64, Office 2010
Sub CopytoDB()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Worksheets("Setup").Select
Range("A2:A766").Select
Selection.Copy
Workbooks.Open Filename:="D:Server MirrorDatabaseSetup Database.xlsm"
Worksheets("Database").Select
Columns("E:E").Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
