I have the following lines in my macro:
Dim LastMonth As Variant
LastMonth = Year(Now()) & "0" & Month(Now() - 1)
Cells. Find(What:=LastMonth).Activate
I am trying to find the first instance of 2007+previous month, i.e. April =04, in a data set. Not sure how to tweak this formula to make it work.
I need to find the row number of the first instance of the string 'TIMEACT
in column A. I know that it must exist at some point in column A, but I do not know where. Column A might have 100,000 entries... ie: a very large number, so I'd appreciate it if the code could be very general.
I am trying to provide a search string and then loop round searching for this search string until the beginning find cell is found again however I am having problems making my code work - here it is:
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have recorded a macro in Excel that copies the contents of a cell in one worksheet, then goes to another, selects a column, runs the Find command and then pastes the clipboard contents into the "Find what" field.
Naturally when I read the code back in visual basic the macro is now programmed to always search for the data I copied from the original cell. The problem is the data in that cell changes all the time so I need it to always copy whats in there and paste it into the Find what field.
I have one sheet in my workbook called 'mapping' which has a list of codes on it, the length of which will vary on a periodic basis.
I have another fairly large sheet on the workbook called 'data' (around 2000 rows) that will also vary in size. I want to do a search on the data tab for each code that is contained on column 4 of the mapping tab and if the code is found, enters the corresponding value from column 1 of the mapping tab to the cell 6 columns to the left of where the code was found on the data tab (cols H and B in this case). Hopefully that makes sense!
The issue I have is the codes maybe contained more than once on the data tab so I need the find/replace command to search the whole of the data tab and perform the task each time.
I m trying to set a range on a cell after using the FIND function in a macro and was wondering if anyone had any experience in it.
Basically, I have a spreadsheet which I am looking up a value that i stored in FID1 with the extension "_EXE"

I want to keep the call log separate from the ticket list, but I want to be able to reference a ticket number for a specific call or vice versa using a command button.

I have an Excel worksheet with a DDE link that continually displays the latest data from a trading platform.
I want to create a second worksheet with a list of times in column A from midnight to 23:30 in 30 minute increments.
At each 30 minutes during the day I want to capture the latest data from worksheet A and store it beside the appropriate time in worksheet B.
But I don't know how to execute a command or macro at a time that is in a cell. My problem is getting the current time to match the cell value.
I have created a command button from the Excel 2003 from the Macros toolbar that I placed on my worksheet. I want to use this button to activate an existing macro. Currently I have no code entered for this button and the button when clicked on behaves as an object to be edited, moved, etc. How should I proceed?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI can't write macros, so have to create them by actually recording the process. I did that just now and then copied it into the Command button. When I run it from Tools>Macros, it works, but when I run it using the Command button it fails.
I'm trying to copy and paste values current MTD figures (P18:P39) to previous MTD area (W18:W39), but the command button fails at this selection. Cells 28-35 are blank, but I don't think this makes any difference, as I've tried the command button with those cells zeroed out.

What I want to do is be able to make a command on a range of cells. Every cell you would click would make a calendar box pop up. Then you select the date from the box and it enters the date into the cell. I found a easy way to go about doing this on a dropdown box but the boss didn't want that.
I have been trying to figure this out all morning.
I am trying to attach a recored macro to work via a command button - but keep getting the error message "select method of Range class failed.
When I run the macro through the normal way it works, but I want to be able to click on a Command button for it to work.
I have copied the recorded macro code to the command buttons code field
Do I need to use the code for the Cmd Btn to tell it to run the Macro -
Is it possible that when you press a command button, that the first thing it does is to execute the code assigned to another command button (IE in another sub).
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with multiple, similar formulas in a macro. Each of these formulas, depending on the active cell, selects a certain range of cells and prints it.
The problem is, no matter which active cell I'm on, the macro activates all lines of the formula and separately prints each range. Is there a way to "separate" these lines in the formula so each range will print separately, depending on the active cell?

The sceanrio is that I use vba to create commandbutton and make that commandbutton call a macro

.Name = "Test"

I would like to add a command to my macro that will do one simple step: Refresh all FDS Codes
FDS I believe is short for FactSet Data Series. FactSet is an add-in for excel we use at work. The FactSet menu button is in my ribbon and when I choose that add-in, there are a number of actions I can execute. One is to refresh all FDS which is to refresh all cells with formulas that pull in data from our FactSet database.
I tried recording this action but VBA does not show any key strokes from those steps so I think I just experienced one of the many shortfalls of recording macros. Is there a way to write the macro to execute this action? I would think since I am using a FactSet add-in, it would be possible but I don't know where to begin.

I haven't worked much with macros and the work I have had to do so far I have been able to figure out by searching forums such as this one. However, I need this community's help with what I am currently working on. Here's the code I have so far:

B3 to B8
D3 to D8
E3 to E8
F3 to F8
G3 to G8
H3 to H8

I have created a command button so that the sheet asks for a password. Now I need to include that in an already created code. I have created a command button as:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
If LCase(Me.TextBox2) = "password" Then
Run "Showall"
Else
Run "Hideall"
End If
End Sub
Can someone tell me how to call this macro in another macro. That is when another macro is running and if the condition fails, this macro should be called. Is it something like run "CommandButton1"?
I have a workbook which employs 4 different userforms. Navigating thru the workbook, the user ends up at a sheet with 5 macro buttons, allowing them to choose from several different functions. I added these to the worksheet using the "forms" toolbar.
My question is this: Is there anyway to change the color of these buttons, as I can with the userform buttons? Under "format control" I can change size, font, even color of font, but I can't change the background color of the button itself. Is it possible to identify those particular buttons thru VBA and adjust it's format?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a uniform stock database for my company. Thus far, I have 2 worksheets. The first is a face sheet, for the user to interact with. This face sheet has a number of drop down menus on it allowing them to select "Type" and "Size" of the item they need. This information is then translated (by a hidden table) into an item code.
The second sheet contains a list of all the uniform items currently in stock. Each item has its individual code that correlates to the code the face sheet generates.
My question is regarding a search macro.
I want the user to be able to click a command button on the face sheet, labelled "search". This would then take the generated "Item Code" and search for it on the second worksheet. I am aware that it would be very easy for them to simply copy the code into "find" on the second sheet, however it needs to be as easy and quick to use as possible.
I want to launch userform A when the user hits the command button on userform B, I already have a macro set up to launch UserForm A and tried adding it to the code but it doesn't work.

I can get the basic command working, but I want to open a lot of different files and am seeing if there is a way to save time by having a variable input, rather than having 1000 different shell lines with IF statements.
