Execute Function When Workbook Closes

I'm looking for a way to execute some code, when the user closes the workbook/excel.
So far, I've found this
I've got a list of files in column A (Starting A1), this is complete with filepaths Now I need a macro to open the workbook in A1 then when i close that workbook it then opens the workbook in A2
basically to save me opening them manually each time..
I need to create a variable that will be TRUE/FALSE based upon whether the user has made changes to a certain range without running a specific macro. Basically, if they change cells in a certain range, the 'Update' macro must be run. I want this variable to be False if the cells have changed without running 'Update' and then when 'Update' runs, it sets the variable back to True.
I've been able to make this work with a Public variable, but if the user closes the workbook, the variable resets to False. Is there a way to create a variable that will be remember even if the workbook closes?
I have a central workbook that relies on data from other workbooks during the various calculations. I am trying to write some code so that when a user closes the central workbook, all of the other workbooks close as well. I have added my code to the thisWorkbook code, but this does not seem to work. Here is an example of the code. The object is to look for a workbook called Import_Sheet5 and to close it if it is open.
Private Sub Workbook_Close()
Dim Wb As Workbook
Dim sSought As String
sSought = UCase(wbName)
For Each Wb In Application.Workbooks
If wbName = Import_Sheet5 And InStr(Wb. Name, wbName) Then
Wb.Activate
Wb.Close SaveChanges:=False
End If
Next
End Sub
I can delete Sheet5 using this macro. I would like to put this in the workbook so that when I close the workbook it will be activated if Sheet5 exists. If Sheet5 does not exist nothing will happen.
Sub DeleteSheet5 ()
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Sheets("Sheet5").Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub
how to mark the post as solved other than go advanced and selecting solved from the drop down menu can you tell me how?
I need a macro that will execute the F2 function key so that the cell can be edited.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have to run a report each morning and in once cell I need to pull in the contents of another cell from another worksheet. I'd rather not have to open the additional file each morning to copy and paste special the values so I'd like to add to my current macro to pull this data in automatically. I have to do this for two different reports/portfolios and the data I am pulling in for each portfolio is located in the same exel file but under two different tab names, the portfolio names 2010 and 2045.
Deliverables
The spreadsheet I am pulling data in from is located here:
K:Risk OversightMarket RiskTracking ErrorBARRA
and the file name is: Daily Barra Tracking Error.xls
Tab name would be 2010 for the 2010 portfolio or 2045 for the 2045 portfolio The vlookup will be from "A32:B2500" and I would like to incorpoprate an IFERROR function that returns "" in the event of an error. Column "A" are dates and column "B" is the data I need to pull in.
Receivables I am pulling the data into cell "J23" of a summary report (sheet 2) and would like the vlookup to read something like this:
IFERROR(VLOOKUP("K1"Active.Workbook.Sheets2,[K:Risk OversightMarket RiskTracking ErrorBARRA"&"Daily Barra Tracking Error.xls"(Sheets)]."2010""A32:B2500",2,0),"")
This should return a blank cell if the date cannot be found in the data spreadsheet and return the correct data for teh correct date being referenced in my summary sheet.
how to do the bracketed parts for pulling in the right spreadsheet and tab.

What do I need to change in order to make it execute the Call statement on EVERY item in the ListBox2, not the Selections.
In a cell I had a formula that was executing a function:
=fn1(C3)
I deleted the cell using right-click "ClearContents"
Now when I try to type another function it just prints out the symbols not the result of the function.
"=fn2(C3)"
Is there a way to clear the cell of all and anything that is left behind so the new function can execute?
Is it possible to use a macro to:
1. Open Excel from the Desktop
2. Open a workbook
3. Execute a macro from this workbook
If so, how can it be done, specially point 1?
I have a simple list of about 4 hundred addresses. Like most US Address, they all start with a street number, for example 1234 Main St. What I would like to do is have a cell where I can type some of the address, maybe just the number itself, and another cell with search the array for all possible matches. So if I type is my criteria cell 1234, I will ahve a result cell that displays 1234 Main St. And if there are multiple address witht he nubmers 1234, such as 1234 Main St. and 1234 Poplar Grove Rd. and 1234 Bennington Ln then I would like for my result cell(s) to display all possible matches. Does anyone know an easy(ish) way I can do this with formulas?

why this happens and how I can make only the 2nd form close when it is finished with?
I do not want ThisWorkBook to close prematurely whenever the specified Activeworkbook is closed without saving because there are other tasks to complete. The Workbook_BeforeClose dun seem to fix it for my case below.
Here’s my situation. I want to copy data from a range of a particular protected sheet in 5 (password-protected) workbooks of a similar format, to 5 worksheets(unprotected) in ThisWorkBook, which is the Master Workbook. The password of the protected sheet is common to the 5 workbooks. The passwords of the 5 workbooks are contained in a sheet in ThisWorkbook. After copying the data from Workbook1 ( 1 of 5), ThisWorkbook are prompted for closure, when Workbook1 is closed without saving. Responding to the prompt to save or not to save, forces ThisWorkbook or MasterWorkbook to break the For-Next loop. By setting Cancel = True in Workbook_BeforeClose, I can stop Thisworkbook from closure, but I will still break the For-Next loop. I have considered the method of copying data from a closed workbook, but I dun think VBA allows copying or referencing a closed workbook which is password protected at workbook and worksheet level.
Here’s my coding :
Sub UpdateMaster()
Dim MasterWB As Workbook
Dim TempWB As Workbook
Dim Source As String
Set MyWB = ThisWorkbook
For i = 1 to 5
Set TempWB = Workbooks.Open (Filename:=WB(i), Password:=password(i) )
TempWB.Sheets("ProtectedSheet").Unprotect Password:="SheetPasswd"
MyWB.Sheets(i).Range(XXX).Value = TempWB.Sheets("ProtectedSheet").Range(YYY)
TempWB.Close False ‘dun want to respond toclose ThisWorkbook else it breaks for-next loop
Next i
Application.Quit.
End Sub
Userform Loading with database turns to close all Excelworkbooks completely
Database created in Excel worksheets to load and show in various different objects on userform. At present this project file size is approximately 2.5 mb and more to go as it is not yet complete. Now you can imagine how much big this project can be.
It uses various different types of objects such as listboxes with many columns, combo-boxes, textbox, checkbox and many. Every objects has its own style to display data on userform which is set in its properties itself.
Before loading userform to display, program creates database from manual entry (which is made by user on their working sheets) to database entry sheets (which is made to make compatible to show on userform). Upon loading, it also loads/populate all datas required in their objects to display.
All works perfect when I am in editing mode. It doesn't matter how big the database can be and works as required. This Project is now Password Protected and distributed among all staffs in our company to work with.
Error Occurs, when I tested in non-editing mode. The moment I triggered the macro to load the program, it takes some few times and pops-up with Excel Recover error message box asking whether to send Error Report and to whether recover & start Excel application again??
I don't know what is wrong. Sometimes it also run successfully when in non-editing mode even there is no changes in program codes.??
Sometimes I feel there can be a virtual memory issue, but my Pc is more than enough with 1GB ram. I hv also increased virtual memory limits and tested but all vain attempt...
I have a workbook that has twenty data sheets. The user presses a button that copies they're specified sheets to a new workbook and prompts them with the SaveAs Dialog. How do I code it so that if they press the CANCEL button on the SaveAs Dialog it closes the created spreadsheet without saving it?
View 6 Replies View RelatedThis code appears to do opposite of what I intended i.e., when I click 'Yes' button it closes the file without saving; and when I click 'No' button it closes the file with saving?
Private Sub btnExitNewPipes_Click()
If MsgBox("Save the Data?", vbYesNo + vbQuestion, "File Save") = vbYes _
Then ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges = True
ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges = False

my excel sheet runs through a lot of calculations, opens Flowmaster, a simulations program, passes on data, receivs data and so on. Is there any way to have a user input to stop the whole simulation. During the first tries I had a lot of break point in my debugger. But now I want to have a button to hit or better just some keys to hit to stop it without using the ctrl+alt+del which closes everything.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've created one file, that acts as a launching file. It does several things, including environment validation, and downloading new files from a web repository, etc... Once it has done everything it needs to do, it launches a 2nd file (the main user input file - which is tied to an external DB), fires the start-up routine in that 2nd file, then quietly gets out of the way.
This all works perfectly, unless the 2nd file gets closed before the start-up routine is finished. (this could happen for several reasons, including invalid login credentials). I've oversimplified the issue below: ...
I have below as part of my
Dim ToPath As String
ToPath = "C:Documents and Settings" & Environ("UserName") & "Desktop"
With Application.FileSearch
.LookIn = ToPath
.FileType = msoFileTypeAllFiles
If .Execute() > 0 Then
Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1:A65536").ClearContents
For i = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count
tempbuf = .FoundFiles(i)
tempbuf = Mid(tempbuf, InStrRev(tempbuf, "") + 1, 255)
Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1").Offset(i, 0).Value = tempbuf
Next i
Else
Exit Sub
it exits the sub which apparently means .Execute is not > to 0.
So my question is, what does the line If .Execute() > 0 checks?
I am 101% sure that there are pdf files under the ToPath folder.
I'm using code from the Ozgrid page: http://www.ozgrid.com/VBA/loop-through.htm
However, once I get to the if statement If .Execute > 0... it does not contain a value. The folder contains 16 files in it, but .Execute does not recognize any of them. Is there a specific library or call that I'm missing??
I've been battling this for sooo long, I just dont know what to do with it.
Using Excel 2003 with WinXP. I'm trying to run macro code automatically whenever time = 9:30:01 (or whatever time I pick) for a stock market trading program, which is why the exact time matters so much. I've been able to get the time to update fine, but unless I click on the worksheet while the time condition is TRUE then my code doesn't run. The time actually is sent to me from the stock data provider and it shows up in a cell as a constantly updating value.
I've tried using the Workbook_SheetChange function and OnTime method, but without luck.
In both cases, unless I activate the sheet the code doesn't run. By activate, I mean that I have to click on the sheet when the values that trigger the code to run would be true. If I do that it works just fine, but sitting around and clicking on a worksheet defeats the purpose of automation. Since I'm trading stocks this has to be very exact, so I can't trust a macro scheduler to do this.
The code further below is what I'm trying to get to run. The time value is in cell L1. In cell L2 I have the following
When I run the userform initialize procedure to reset the values in text boxes and the like instead of resetting like it should, now it closes the userform completely and then won't allow me to show it again, what could be the problem?
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Me.MultiPage1.Value = 0
TextBox3.Value = ActiveWorkbook. Sheets("Sales Invoice"). Range("G15").Value
Dim hWndForm As Long
Dim hMenu As Long
hWndForm = FindWindow("ThunderDFrame", Me.Caption) 'XL2000
hMenu = GetSystemMenu(hWndForm, 0)
DeleteMenu hMenu, SC_CLOSE, 0&
End Sub
The Dim stuff down is to gray out the x button, there are also some module level declarations to go with that...
Private Declare Function FindWindow Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindowA" (ByVal lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName As String) As Long
Private Declare Function GetSystemMenu Lib "user32" (ByVal hWnd As Long, ByVal bRevert As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function DeleteMenu Lib "user32" (ByVal hMenu As Long, ByVal nPosition As Long, ByVal wFlags As Long) As Long
Private Const SC_CLOSE As Long = &HF060
the userform shows when the workbook opens and is then hidden when the user has finished entering values, then when the user goes through the process of being asked to print and save, they are then asked if they would like to create a new record, if yes then it shows the userform again, but the userform is still filled with all the stuff previously entered. I tried using the unload me instead of hiding and that wouldn't work at all, didn't give errors just didn't show the userform either, this at least shows the userform, but now when the user goes to clear the information by initializing the userform again, it simply closes the userform and then it can't be shown again either.

This is the link to the ZIP, and here are some instructions for setting it up to work.
The contents of this need to be unzipped into a folder called SyntheticShield that is placed in the C: drive that way all paths begin with C:SyntheticShield and then the other folders or files will be referenced correctly. The template I'm having problems with is the SyntheticShieldInvoiceMaker template, when you open it you'll be prompted whether you want to create a new invoice, number is final blah blah blah, say yes, then it will ask if you are importing from the Quotemaker which you aren't say no, it should then show the userform as it should. Then you can go through that process and by pressing either the create invoice or go to template directly whatever, you can hide the userform. Then you press the command button (red) a userform is brought up asking if you'd like to save without emailing, save with emailing or close controls, as for right now, I'm just getting the save without emailing to work the rest is all the same just a few tidbits of code. So click save without emailing, it should then prompt an are you sure message box, click yes it will do some things, then it will ask if you want to print, click no, then it will ask do you want to create a new invoice, click yes, this should then start the process all over again by calling the workbook_open procedure, however, when you go through everything, and click no to the import from quotemaker part it won't show the userform. And at one point it would, but then I couldn't initialize the userform without it disappearing and not being allowed to be shown...I tried putting a command button on the template to show the userform, but it wouldn't do it either.

I have turned a Workbook with Macros into an add-in. The macros work perfectly for the intended purpose: copy selected data in a special way and put it into an e-Mail message.
I used the CustomUI Editor to assign a macro to a Ribbon button.
However, when I turn it into an add-in and click the Ribbon button, it doesn't work on my machine or any other machine, with an error that says "Cannot run the macro 'CreateListofInventory'. The macro may not be available in this workbork or all macros may be disabled.
My macros are not disabled, and the add-in doesn't even work in the book where the macros reside.
I have two userform one if useing the getopenfilename to popluate a listbox. and then i use these listbox item withen this code to copy the files into a new folder. This works ok.
Then i copy a program into the same folder jpegresize.exe this program makes resized images of all files in its directory. by defult this program should only deal with these files. though what is happening is instead of using the files in the new folder it running on the files where the originals where copied from. (hope that makes sence). Though if i run jpegresize.exe from the new folder or command prompt it. It runs like it should. So i cant figure it out is there somethink the the shell and wait is passing that it shouldnt be.
How do I have a workbook execute VBA code when I hit 'Enter' anywhere on a specific sheet? I don't need the code to execute when I hit 'Enter' on any of the other sheets in the workbook, just a specific sheet.
