Excel File Has Disappeared?

Mar 17, 2014

I have used this file extensively for months. I inadvertently clicked something this morning that made the file "disappear". I can see the file in its folder and open it. But, once opened, I do not see any of the tabs and the name of the file does not appear at the top. I did ALT F11 and can see the tabs in the VBA but I'm missing a step to make the tabs reappear. Since I don't know what I did to make everything disappear,

Excel 2003 :: VBA - Worksheet Object Temporarily Disappeared

Oct 25, 2011

I have a simple macro that cycles through the sheets in a workbook, and if the sheet's codename matches one of a defined list, some of its data is added to a summary sheet.

The macro works exactly as intended, but a strange thing happened yesterday: some data was missing from the summary sheet because one of the sheets was being ignored. This sheet is named 'MCP' on its tab, and has codename Sheet8.

Here's the strange part: on stepping through the code, cycling the sheets, I noticed that the sheet icon, name and codename had disappeared from the Microsoft Excel Objects folder in the Project Explorer. When the loop got to the sheet in question

Code:
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
Debug.Print ws.Name
Debug.Print ws.Codename

The above code displayed its name (correctly) as 'MCP', but its codename was blank; the sheet was therefore skipped by the code because the codename had to match against a defined list.

While I was pondering this, and doing some web searches, the sheet then re-appeared in the Project Explorer and everything worked again.

My question is this: is it likely to be due to the workbook being shared? I know that workbook sharing in Excel is often discouraged, but this is a simple workbook only used by a maximum of three users (two of these had the workbook open at the time the issue was reported)

I've changed the code so that the sheet name is inspected in the event that the codename is blank, which should guard against the issue provided sheets are not deleted/renamed.

Windows XP, Excel 2003

Drop Down Box Disappeared

Oct 23, 2007

I have created some drop-down boxes on a tracking spreadsheet. Last week they were they today they are gone.

I went in and cleared the cells and re-created by dropdowns. I did remember to click, in-cell dropdown, but when I click on the cell it is not there.

Now if I right click on the cell it does give me an option to choose from a drop down. So my options are still there but why are they not appearing in the cell when I click on it.

I am using Excel 2003 with Windows XP

Tabs Disappeared

Nov 25, 2008

I am unable to view my tabs in excel - the tabs are there, they just can't be clicked on per say. I have double-check the tools option and verified the correct box is check to view tabs, however, I can't view the tabs. I tried to color a tab and it colored it red, but I can't really view the tab. I can see a red line underneath the directional arrows when I am working on that particular worksheet, but again, I can't view/click on the tab.

Cell Highlighting Box Has Disappeared?

Jan 3, 2013

Was working away on one of my spreadsheets and the black square that surrounds the cell you click on has vanished. i.e. if you click on cell A1, you normally get a black square surrounding the cell A1 to let you know that you are on it. That black square has disappeared.

It seems to affect any spread that I open but if I open a new spreadsheet it is there.

Custom Menu Disappeared.

Jun 17, 2009

Just curious as to what could make a custom menu or custom button disappear from Excel upon opening it. I had created a custom menu with personal.xls macros in it for someone here a while back, and today it was completely missing.. although the Personal.xls folder still existed with the macros.

I am quite sure that they did not manually remove the menu by right-clicking and selecting Customize and dragging back the menu items...

Drop Down Lists Disappeared

Nov 23, 2006

I've created a sheet with a number of drop down lists using the validation menu.

Whilst working on the sheet the lists have disappeared! The validation options are still there and refer to the correct cells that have the correct details in them, but when I click in the cell that should have the list in it I don't get the down arrow to click that shows the list.

I've also tried creating a new list in another cell but that does the same.

Hopefully i've just changed a setting that stops it working and I can unchange it - but I don't know what's caused it.

Series Line Disappeared

Oct 10, 2006

I have a chart of type 'Line' that shows a KPI item measured quarterely. It has a single series that references the 'data' worksheet. Since it is measured quarterely, the months in between will have a null value. It has been working to date, but since I have added the data for the latest month, the series line has disappeared. Only the markers remain. The series line is formatted in a vivid blue.
I can't attach the spreadsheet because its 152KB. One thing of note is that when I select the series line, not all of the markers get highlighted as expected

My 'FORMS' Toolbar Has Completely Disappeared

May 21, 2007

My boss has passed me his laptop that he had been designing a spreadsheet on (Excel 2000). The 'forms' toolbar has completely disappeared. When I right click the area where the toolbars are normally docked it lists every one except forms. clicking customise appears to list a few more menus - but no sign of FORMS. If I click 'new' in customise and type in Forms for the name it tells me 'a toolbar named 'forms' already exists' (so where is it!)

how I can get the toolbar back -

Import Text File Into File Where Rows Exceed Excel Row Limit

Jun 3, 2009

I have a workbook with many spreadsheet named Sheet1, Sheet2 and so on. Each sheet is filled completely upto 65536 rows. This data is being picked up from a CSV file. In this file there are sites with each site there is a assciated set of data. What happens is the data that extracts data does not differntiate between sites and when it reaches to the end of worksheet it splits the data into next sheet. So I am trying to create a macro to check each spreadsheet starting with the last sheet in the work book for example last sheet in the workbook is seven it should go to sheet6 and if there is a blank row after row 64000 it should cut all the rows and move them to sheet7. Then it should goto sheet5 and do the same and keep on doing it until it reaches sheet1.

Excel 2007 :: Force File To Be XLSM File Type

I have a macro-enabled template file in Excel 2007. I would like the user to be unable to save in any format other than macro-enabled. They should be free to choose a path and filename, but not the file type.

I presume this means some VBA code in the before save event, but I don't know what.

Open Excel File Based On Date In File Name That Is From One Day Before

Apr 24, 2014

I need to open an excel file based on a date mentioned in the file name, but minus 1 day. The file name is composed with Statistics_date_time.xls

Example: statistics_20140423_142754.xls

Once I need to open the file (only in the mornings), it has to be the one from the previous day to see the yesterdays performance. How can I create a macro that will look at the date in the file and take the one from yesterday?

This will be a part of a macro I'm making. The rest of the macro will just format the file and combine a few ones from different departments.

Excel 2010 :: Is File Of File Type Text

May 16, 2014

Using Excel 2010

As I am looping through files in a folder, I would like to determine if the file is a text file.

The problem is that all extensions are variable in a pattern such as .078, .051, etc.

In this instance, the extensions are numeric, but I'm trying to figure out a way to handle that is all encompassing to include *.txt, *.tsv, *.csv, *.prn, etc......

How can I handle these efficiently?
