Code:
Sheets.Add After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Sheets("Sheet1").Move Before:=Sheets(6)
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Sheets("Sheet1").Name = "BMW"
But I would like a formula that asks beforehand, through a pop-up, of a preferred name. In this case I will write BMW in the pop-up, and the new sheet will be named BMW.

I have been tasked with overhauling some simple inventory records that are currently being tracked via multiple spreadsheets and in multiple formats over various years. Thus far I have combined the data into two simple sheets (1 & 2) of the same Excel workbook. The first is just the basic listing of current inventory and locations. The second is a record listing various shipments into and out of the company location as a history log. I'm going to be continually trying to clean up the data and make things easier for the staff. The shipping history/log (Sheet 2) contains basic information in columns that include the serial numbers of the items shipped, which correspond to the S/N's in the global list columns within the inventory sheet(1). I would like to find a way to set up where a column in the inventory creates upon click (or have a maco button with the ability to) a popup which will display the history of the current rows serial number. In effect, list all rows in the second sheet with corresponding serial number or as a reverse strategy; filter out the rows that do not have the same S/N listed in one of its columns.
A piece of inventory comes in and is logged into the global inventory sheet (1) with Serial # ks1254. Likewise the shipping sheet (2) has the shipping information and document info logged with the same serial # listed. This is item has arrived and been shipped out multiple times, and occasionally the history of this item is requested. I have a column set aside in sheet 1, that i would like to act as a trigger for the above request. So if I filter and find the mention item, I would like the trigger to go and select out only the rows in sheet 2 that correspond to the S/N of the item in question. This can be presented as a pop up tab, a small window, even as a new sheet altogether I suppose. I guess I'm using Excel 2007, have a very dated limited VB skill set, so just hoping for some direction and steps.
My query is,How to get any type of remainder from my excel sheet/workbook on my desktop.

The cell is highlighted but I can not type into it unless I manually re-select it with the mouse or keyboard. Below is what i have attempted as well as a few other experiments. I even tried using the same code on sheets("ENTRY") using Private Sub Worksheet_Activate() - which works great as long as the workbook is already open but again not when freshly opening workbook -
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
'====================
Sheets("ENTRY").Select
If Range("E2") "" Then
Range("F11").Select
Else
Range("E2").Select
'Range("E2").Activate
'ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "test"

Function FSel()
filetoopen = Application. GetOpenFilename("Document Files (*.xls), *.xls", 1)
Workbooks.Open Filename:=filetoopen
End Function
I need to activate the sheet which is selected in that string "filetoopen".I am not getting the way to do this ,the normal Windows(" " ).Activate is not working with variable as input.
I am placing the funcation Fsel in a loop so each time it asks for the file to open which is not proper,so i wanted to activate sheet .
Is there a way to change the page view without activating the sheet? I would like to loop through a bunch of sheets and change the page view.
I currently am aware of the ActiveWindow.View command, but this requires me to first activate the sheet. Is there a similar Sheet.View command, or something like that?
I am attempting to use the code below to activate a sheet whose name is contained in a variable. The line in Bold gives me a "Subscript out of range" error even though the variables seam correct in the debugger.
Code:
Private Sub GetFromArchive_Click()
Dim wkb As Workbook
Dim strPath As String: strPath = "M:EfpDocsArchivesESI Processing Log Master Archive.xls"
Dim lngListItem As Long, lngSelected As Long

After adding worksheets, data to ranges, etc. I want to step through each worksheet and "Select" or "Activate" a specific cell (Mainly to clear all the range selections).
My code does the job except the second to last part of cell selection/activation.

Scenario is - n number of files are kept at a location say D:excelfiles
Each excel file contains, say, 10 sheets among them one sheet is called "custom".
Example -
file 1 - sheet1, sheet2, sheet3, custom, sheet5, sheet6
file 2 - sheet7, sheetB, custom, sheet9, sheet10, sheet11, sheet12
file 3 - sheet13, sheet14, sheet15, sheet16, custom, sheet17, sheet18, sheet19
and so on.
Requirement - all cell values of each "custom" sheet should get copied into a master excel sheet in file "import-sheets.xlsm".
To achieve this I started with copying each custom sheet from all excel files to the "import-sheets.xlsm" but I'm getting error.
Any way to directly copy paste the cell values of each "custom" sheet into a single master sheet of excel file "import-sheets.xlsm".

I have a workbook containing multiple sheets of data. I have a macro to analyze this data but want to add a popup menu with a dropdown list of all sheets in the workbook. The idea is to have the macro prompt me to select which sheet to continue running on. I can't remember how to create an input box with a dropdown menu.

I am very new to programming in excel, so bear with me. I need to have a window that pops up when you load excel. I need it to say something like
If A2 > A1, then the popup should say "value exceeded in row 1"
If B2 > B1, then the popup should say "value exceeded in row 2"
If both of the statements above are true, then I would like both of the errors to be in the same window/popup, instead of two seperate ones. I hope thats clear.
I have a worksheet with 3 cells in it. One cell is "Total", the second cell is "Adjustment" and the third cell is "Variance".

How to use an Excel worksheet I have, so I decided to make a button with a macro, which when clicked a kind of message box pops up and you can read the tutorial. When you are done you just press ok and the pop up window closes.
I know about vba I just have to use msgbox, keep on adding lines with the text and that's it! But after many attempts I found out that it ain't that easy.

So I made something like this:

but at a point I got this error: "Too many lines continuations".
I wanna make something that looks a bit like this: p69pxC8.jpg
But way simpler, with my text, a scroll bar to roll up and down to read and an ok button at the end. I don't need special text with hyperlinks or anything at all, plain text does the job.
It just now crossed my mind, would it be viable to also add a "Print" button next to the "Ok" button in the pop up windows with the tutorial, so when the "Print" button is clicked, the tutorial is printed?

When 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 have a worksheet that contains two basic columns of data, A and B. What I would like to do is based on the value in column A, I would like to copy the contents of column B to a textfile (preserving the basic line structure and hopefully without any extra characters like quotation marks attached). So for all the values in column A = 'Account', Id like to take all the corresponding values in Column E (for example) and save them to the same file, preferably where the filename itself as 'Account.xyz'. And I would like to do this for all unique values in Column A, that is do it for 'Account' and 'AccountPrivilege' etc. Note Column A is essentially presorted alphabetically already. There are actually 1000s of rows with hundreds of unique A values so Id like to find a way to automate this process.

I'm trying to create a formula that takes from "Manual" Sheet the number from colume G2 and multiply it by the percentage in sheet "AllocationRule".
My formula currently is =Manual!$G$2*AllocationRule!$B5.
What needs to happen is that the total number in "Manual" needs to be distributed evenly in 4 rows by the percentages allocated in "AllocationRule".
Right now I can't copy my formula over to the sheet because the "AllocationRule" should stop at B5 and not go further and the G2 from "Manual" should not change for the percentage allocation but should change to the next row for the next month.
And then after I've done the calculation I want the LOB in "AllocationRule" to be displayed in the LOB in "H1913_H1914" but I'm not sure what formula to use.
I remember years ago that I made a couple formulas that on sheet one would transfer to another sheet when I enter in sheet one.
