Fixed Objects May Move Error With AutoFilter
May 17, 2008
Does anyone know the maximum number of rows an autofilter can handle? I have a spreadsheet at work that started to crash at approximately 1500 - 2000 rows. The autofilter would give a weird error "Fixed objects may move" and then the filter would get rid of half the information and the filter arrows would show on a random row (rather than on the title).
I had heard a rumor that autofilter can only handle so many rows of data, but couldn't find where the cutoff point is. The spreadsheet is also shared between multiple people, so i'm sure that adds to it. And yes I know that Excel isnt' supposed to be kept open by multiple people and used as a database,

I'm having problems when trying to apply an auto filter to my data. When I select the critieria from the auto-filter drop down, on any field heading, I get this messgae "Fixed Objects Will Move" about 18 times.

I have a database that lets me add columns and do the required vlookups however, when I filter with a particular rule it throws the 'Cannot Move Objects Off the Sheet' error. Also, I cannot see any rows beyond row number 4316 - could this be the reason for the error?
Under 'Advanced' options, I've gone to 'Display options for this workbook' and chosen the 'All; option under 'For Objects show', however, I'm stick not getting anywhere

Here is the original table:
This is with a filter on:
You can see there that some inserted object (in this case, PDF files shown as icons), are moved. I need to find a way to immobilize every inserted object within each cell boundaries. I want to freely sort or filter and avoid this kind of problem that gets worse with more rows, columns and inserted objects.

I am running excel 2007 and I have 23 worksheets in a workbook. I have no links or hidden rows or colums. I have no merged cells or comments. My biggest sheet is A1:
AW8096. I use VB macros to add lines and move data from one set of workbooks to this one.
I have built several sheets using this proceedure.
All of a sudden I get the error "Cannot shift objects off sheet" when I run
a routine I have 50,000 times. This even happens on new blank sheet so I know its' not on the sheet.
I have checked to make sure there are no hidden comments, row or columns. I have deleted most of the worksheets and I still get the error. I have made copies of the workbook and used different file types to save it. I can create a new black sheet in the workbook that is empty and the same thing happens.
The only way I can get it to work is to creat a new blank workbook and copy and paste the sheets into the new workbook. Yes I have serched the FAQ and knowledge base and tried all of those fixes as well.

So I'm creating a grid worksheet for engineering calculations and I have a couple questions about the best way to do it. I've been messing with excel for my calcs for about a decade now, and I every once in a while I try and improve them.
First: I will have several input areas that will either be colored text or shaded background (either works for me). I don't want these 'input required' objects to print as color, just black. But I want my logo at the sheet top to print as color. I've only found ways to not print any color. Can I print the logo as color and the 'input required' stuff as black?
Second: When I do calcs by hand, I write them out on 10x10 grid paper. Each 10x10 grid is one inch. In the past I've created this grid out of the cells, which works. I frequently need to change formulas around though, and each time I do this, I end up needing to mess with the grid cells also. Is there a way to create the grid and have it in the background so it doesn't need to be adjusted each time I change formulas? I wan't the grids to print, and also want to see them on the screen, as I sometimes draw simple objects along with the formulas.

I have 4 command buttons (A-D) so that the users can update after inputting new or revised Data.
My problem is that if updated in order, button D Macro below stops at the first "Selection.AutoFilter..." as if it cannot turn on the Auto Filter.
It will run if I manually set the AutoFilter on the sheet.
I think, and as I am completely new to this please feel free to correct me, the reason that it stops is that on the Button B is a "AdvancedFilter" Macro.

If I protect a sheet but tick the boxes to allow sorting and autofilter I still get an erro when I try to use the sort buttons on the autofilter.
It allows me to use the filters but as soon as I sort I get told to unprotect the cells im trying to sort.
Is there a way around this where I can keep formulas from being touched but allow sorting of data through autofilter?

I lost 2 days trying to discover the bug in my program, but I coudn't find the right answer.
How can I activate the AutoFilter to show me the rows selected with "YES" ?
This is the code... The compiler stops always at the command Selection.AutoFilter.

From the above thread I am using the following macro...
Sub MoveOver()
Dim MoveRange As Range
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
With Range("B1", Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(, 21))
.AutoFilter field:=1, Criteria1:="=C&P"
On Error Resume Next
Set MoveRange = .Offset(1).Resize(.Rows.Count - 1).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)
On Error GoTo 0
.AutoFilter
End With
If Not MoveRange Is Nothing Then
MoveRange.Insert Shift:=xlToRight
End If
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
I am getting an error 1004 message saying cells cannot be moved off of the spreadsheet. However, my last cell on the sheet is J28956.
Columns B through J contain data. Columns beyond J do not contain data.
Can someone give advice on getting the macro to work.

I am looking for some example code that when I get an error using workbook.open, because a file is corrupt, I can cut from the list and paste into a range to show that file had errors, then delete that row and continue.
For example
My list:
Column A Column B Errors List Error
File path B and name Information File Path A Information
File path C and name Information
File path D and name Information
I can cut and paste File path C into an errors list, then delete the row A and B and shift the below lines up.

I want to use VBA to update a drawing object's color, such as a circle.
For example, pretend I am counting sheep and I need to know when I have reached the maximum count by the visual aide of a stoplight. The script in my head reads: If the max. count of the sheep is less than 5, then the stoplight is green. If the max. count of the sheep is equal to 5, then the stoplight is yellow. If the max. count of the sheep is greater than 5, then the stoplight is red.
Is there a way to do such a thing on excel and with VBA?

I created four Ranges called "Range1", "Range2", "Range3" and "Range4", and wrote short program, that fills them:
Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 To 4
Range("Range" & i).value = 1
Next i
Is it possible to do similiar thing with for example ComboBox?
Let's say that i have comboBoxes named "cb1", "cb2", "cb3" and "cb4" and want to disable them.

If I hadn't read it on here, how would I have know that they existed? They are not mentioned in the standard Excel help files (not that I could see anyway).
What other "objects" are available? I had a look through the references in the VBE and there are literally hundreds on items which all look pretty "juicy". Does that mean there are a whole host of other objects that I could use in my Excel spreadsheets to either make them simplier or more powerful?
If so, where does one find any reference info on them?

Why should I set objects to nothing (ie clear them) just before ending a sub routine? Doesn't excel dump the variables after the sub is finished running?
Example:
Dim ws As worksheet
Then at the end...
Set ws = Nothing

In the attached sample workbook, (Excel 2007 format), there are hundreds, maybe thousands, of drawing objects and rectangles. They are mostly located near the top of column AC. You can't see any of them, because they are empty, or formatted to have no line and no fill, ubt if you move the cursor around in that area, it will eventually give you the option to "select" one of the objects. They appear to be stacked on top of each other.
This bloats the worksheet terribly. I have managed to shave the size of the attached sample down to 100K, bu deleting about 200 of the objects, but if I save this balnk file as an Excel 2003 file, it is 1.3 Mb.
I have discovered how to show what objects are on the worksheet, by selecting "Find and Select" and choosing to show the "Selection Pane". This pane shows hundreds of blank objects in the sheet. When this pane is open, however, if I try to select and delete an object, Excel locks up on me.

I'm not sure why they decided to export data this way but...I have a report that has pictures/objects that need to be in a cell so I can manipulate the data. I'm not really sure how to do this- and the only thread that related to this was over my head. This is not the original export- I've already done some sorting so the objects are all over the place- but basically if the object is C (picture 23) then I want that picture to say C in a cell somewhere. or if the picture is the dollar sign (picture 27) then I want a cell to say $. I don't know if I'm even explaining this right. Here is my workbook.

Hi all, starting this as a new problem because it's so far different from what I was originally talking about; but this does relate in part to my previous thread.
Anyway. I'm trying to set an array to set Range objects so that I can define each one as a seperate With block. Here's what I "know" when starting out.
I developed the following. I keep thinking it should be multidimensional but my sleep deprived brain came up with this instead. The problem is, it's throwing a 1004 Method "Range of object '_Worksheet'" failed at the With statement.

If cell.value = {userArray} and cell.offset(0, 2).value = {taskArray}
Then cell.offset(0, 2).interior.colorindex = 3
I have three different {userArray}s and {taskArray}s and there will essentially be different code for each of the arrays and that's fine....

I'm trying to remove gif, jpg, and xls objects from a specific range and I can't seem to figure out how to do it. I can remove all objects from the sheet or only the gif and jpg files from a range. Here is the code I've been playing with:
Sub Clear_Sigs()
Dim Sh As Shape
With Worksheets("Sheet1")
For Each Sh In .Shapes
If Not Application.Intersect(Sh.TopLeftCell, .Range("A26:E32")) Is Nothing Then
If Sh.Type = msoPicture Then Sh.Delete
End If
Next Sh
End With
End Sub
I know this code says to delete only pictures and I've tried tweeking it to do all objects but it doesn't work for just the range I want. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Amy

I want on my chart is an object (Arrow in this case), that is conditional formatted on data between 2 periods.
The first bar of 20 represents a top 20 list with most common failures.
I would like to have an arrow that indicates that if the last period, the amount of failures has gone up, down or is equal to the period before that.
So period 1, article 111 had 10 failures, period 2 article 111 had 20 failures, hence there should be an arrow pointing up related to that bar.
