I need to have this spread sheet date when a cell is changed. I have set up the Visual Basic editor and it works for the column D when updated puts the date in column E.
But I have duplicated what I want for the other columns but I get ambiguous name detected and the other columns do not work my knowledge of macros has hit its limit ...
Hello, Im using a script that allows me to autocomplete a data validation list using a combo box and the code shown below. However I am getting a compile error ambigous name detected and the following line is highlighted
"Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)"
I know its because this is used twice but I am not sure what to do in order to fix this.
Receiving the following error:
Compile Error:
Ambiguous name detected: Worksheet_Change
How can I resolve this? Is there a way to combine these two (2) statements?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$O$3" Then
Range("B2:L13").ClearContents
Range("A17:A27").Copy
Sheets("Letter").Range("A16:A26").PasteSpecial xlValues
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "TextBody" Then
Range("A17:A27").Copy
Sheets("Letter").Range("A16:A26").PasteSpecial xlValues
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End If
End Sub
I need to use both of these VBA scripts in my excel project. The first is this:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Sheets("Sheet2").Range(ActiveCell.Address).Value = 1 Then
ActiveCell.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
End Sub
The second is this:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim lScrollRow As Long
Dim lScrollColumn As Long
Dim lTargetRow As Long
Dim lTargetColumn As Long
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
lScrollRow = ActiveWindow.ScrollRow
lScrollColumn = ActiveWindow.ScrollColumn..................
When I enter both into the script box and then try to run it, it says that there is a compile error with an "ambiguous name detected "worksheet_selectionchange"
my macros to search for the word "Cancel" in columns "T". Once found, I need the macros to make that entire row a certain pattern ( .Pattern = xlGray16)
There will be other wording in these cells that contain "Cancel" or "Cancelled".
A compile error keeps occurring. It says "Ambiguous name detected: FormatCell"..
I want to include a progress bar in my macro and have got the code from another website. However, after the progress bar is displayed i cannot get it to move to the next line of code in the module. In the example i've got, the code in the user form window simply calls a sub called "main" and continues on through that sub. Whenever i call one of my sub routines an error box states" ambiguous name detected". This never happens with the sub called "main"? Why is this happening? A portion of the code is shown below. After "userform1.show", the user form is displayed but the program will not move on to "get_blades" sub routine?
Browse_Folder
' Sub routine "browse_folder" selected to select folder
' containing the mea files.
UserForm1.LabelProgress.Width = 0
UserForm1.Show
' HourGlass
get_blades (lookinname)
' Use sub routine get_blades
Range("T3").Select
sort_data
Option Explicit
Public Const ARK As String = "Inddata-ARK"
Public Const VVS As String = "Inddata-VVS"
Public Const KON As String = "Inddata-KON"
Public Const EL As String = "Inddata-EL"
Public Const LD As String = "Inddata-LD"
Public Const KØL As String = "Inddata-KØL"
Public Const OpDat As String = "Opdatering"
And then macro's under it... So the aboce is in module "INIT_S". Now in another module "RUN_P" I have a sub-rutine that uses these constants with a select case.
Likes this:
Sub OpEksInitNu()
Select Case ActiveSheet. Name
Case ARK
With OpEks
'more stuff
Case VVS
'more stuff
Case KON
'more stuff
End Sub
But when I try to run OpEksInitNu i comes with ambigious name with ARK as the error, later down I use another public constant. But i keep getting the ambigious name error.. What could cause that... I have tried to locate all ARK, VVS etc. to try to determine if it is used later on, but it's not! I only declare the constants one time, and no module is called ARK, VVS etc.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm running a sheet with three pieces of code (all blagged from these forums thank you) Two of the sub procedures have the same name "worksheet_change which generate an ambiguous name error. This I sort of understand. However I've tried changing the second one of the subs names to "worksheet_change1" and whilst the ambiguous name error goes away the sub routine then fails to function.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got two macros that work beautifully apart from one another ... but put the two in the same Excel workbook and they bump heads. I get the infamous "Ambiguous name detected: Worksheet_Change"
I know enough about VB to get myself into trouble. So, I'm asking for help from a talented person to show me how to combine the two ... or another work around to get through this.
Here are the two sets of code in my sheet that I think are causing the ambiguous name problem. How can I work around this error?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim varFind As Variant
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Target.Column 2 And Target.Column 9 Then Exit Sub
If IsEmpty(Target) Then Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 0
If Target.Column = 2 Then
Set varFind = Columns(16).Find(What:=Target.Value, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlWhole)
If varFind Is Nothing Then
Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 0
Else
Target.Interior.ColorIndex = Cells(varFind.Row, 16).Interior.ColorIndex
End If
End If
During a copy and paste I forgot to change the name of a macro in a module which had many macros. Now when I want to open that file , it hangs and does not open. how to open the file to change the name of the macro and re-save it ?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI was told that the following code would enable my macro to execute every time the user interacts with anything Excel:
Code:
' Repeatedly check for user interaction whenever a change is detected
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Call TestMacro
End Sub
It doesn't work...
To put it into context, he is my entire program:
Code:
Sub TestMacro()'
' TestMacro Macro
'
' Create string variable
Dim undoText As String
' Assign the text to string variable
[Code] ......
My being new to VBA doesn't work in the situation as my programming instincts tell me to set up an infinite loop to continually check for interaction something like the following:
Code:
while( x == 1 )
{
do MY_CODE;
if( USER_CLOSES_EXCEL )
x == 0;
} // end while
However, Excel is apparently 'Event Driven' so I'd love to know how to use this to my advantage in keeping my macro running.
I've run into a problem detecting empty cells. I'd like to search down a column of numbers and count the cells that contain numbers and ignore the cells that are empty. If the cells were made empty of their data by manually using the delete key before hand then my macro works fine. The problem is if the cells were manually made empty using the space bar to clear their contents.. then the macro seems unable to detect them as empty.
I have tried "", IsEmpty, and a few other things and nothing detects the cell as empty unless the delete key is used rather than the space bar. For this macro I really need the user to be able to clear values beforehand using the space bar, and to have those cleared cells be detected as empty cells.
I have a CSV file and the first field is date. I'm imprting this csv file using Data->Import from Text When I do that it's adding an additional column at the left. I do not want it to add additional column what should I do?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have an Excel file with a table of data on Sheet1. The table of data has 3 fields which are Code (a Text field) , Date (a Date field) and Amt (a Number field). I'm using vba with sql code to query that table and return the results of the query to a different sheet in the same file. So just to reiterate, Excel is my data source. I've done my research and largely worked this code out.
I'm also plugging a date parameter into the WHERE CLAUSE of the vba/sql code and this date is drawn from cell D4. This way, the user can change the date in cell D4 and this will change the criteria in the WHERE clause of the sql query to give them the results they want.
However I am getting an error that reads 'Data type mismatch in criteria expression' when I run the below code, so there must be something wrong with the specific syntax I'm using to plug in the date from cell D4.
Note that I can get the code and parameter to work if I make the CODE field the parameter with the query definition line of :
query = "SELECT [Code], sum([Amt]) as Ttl FROM [Main$] WHERE [Code] = '" & Range("D4").Value & "' group by [Code]"

I have an excel sheet which has a column containing data only for the month of January 2014. The date format used is dd-mm-yyyy hh:mm All the data must be something like dd-01-2014. But, the excel sheet is interpeting like it has data for Feb, March, April, June etc...
The data in the sheet is getting miscalculated like it has data for rest of the month also.
Lets take an example of 01-02-2014 09:22:16. Actually its 2nd Jan 2014 but excel sheet misenterpretes as 1st February 2014. 01-04-2014 07:49:51 is being taken as 1st April 2014.
I have tried using text-to-columns - next next date. But still no luck.

I have a macro that should be sorting the last column of data, but it gives me an error code of "400". No explanation of the error, just the number.
I have a feeling it is because I have formulas in place to pull the data from other sources, and the associated "#Value!" error is whited out by using the conditional formatting.
Is there a way to have this macro only look at numeric values?
--------BEGIN VBA--------
Sub SortLastColumn()
Dim myRange As Range, myCol As Integer, sortCol As String
Set myRange = ActiveCell.CurrentRegion
myCol = myRange.Columns.Count
sortCol = myRange.Item(1, myCol).Address
myRange.Select
