Forcing Me To Save As On Exit.
Oct 21, 2008
recently excel 2003 began forcing the save as dialogue box when i try to close the workbook. I do not remember installing anything in particular on my machine when it started acting up.
I tried uninstalling office with Revo Uninstaller (gets rid of those pesky registry entries that the control panel add/remove leaves behind).
I reinstalled and I have the same issue.
Im thinking it is a macro of some sort as when I open the program holding down shift, it does not prompt me to save as when I exit. I do have one excel add in installed, but I have used it for many years without any issues.

Is there anyway I can make excel quit using VBA without the option of saving the changes popping up?

I have some code that does some maintenance on my workbook, calls a second macro to delete all of the VBA and saves it with a new name.
However, after it finishes and I try to exit Excel, I am still prompted to save the workbook. I'm not sure why because the last thing my code does is save the workbook and no additional changes have been made.
Code:
'Loop through all cells
For Each Sht In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
With Sht
[Code].....

I'm trying to solve when hitting the Save/Close button on my Userform.
Give the User the option to Save As the toolGive the User the option to either exit or return after Save AsIf Exit - hide all but the first worksheet (in case they open with Macros DisabledClose/Exit
My current issue is when I click the button and choose Exit Yes then the form and workbook close, but Excel is still open. Is there a way to have Excel fully close if no other workbooks are open?
Code:
Private Sub cmbSaveAs_Click()
Dim sFilename
If MsgBox("Save the file?", vbYesNo) = vbYes Then
sFilename = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(fileFilter:="Excel Macro-Enabled Workbook (*.xlsm),*.xlsm")
[Code] .........

I would like to call upon a function until a certain criterion is fullfilled. Then, I would like to have the result returned to me and exit (all) open functions. For value1 = 1 and value2 = 10 I expect value1*value2 = 100. Instead, the routine returnz zero. What is the logical flaw in the code below.
Function testfunction(value1, value2)
If value1 = value2 Then
'Calculating the difference
testfunction = value1 * value2
Exit Function
ElseIf value1 < value2 Then
value1 = value1 + 1
Call testfunction(matrix1, matrix2)
End If
End Function

Command button opens userform with a listbox. Unfortunately during testing I found that if a value is not selected from the listbox and the OK button is clicked, it bugs out.
Is there a way to force a cell value from the listbox? BTW, the listbox first number is 3 so it would be my choice of default.
I would imagine the code would need to be with the OK button, so here is the code for it:

I'm importing data from CMS into excel and I then have several other sheets that harvest the raw data from the import and use it to calculate various things.
My problem is that when I import time data, if it is less than 1 hour (eg 39mins, 12 secs) it will format as :39:12 rather than 00:39:12 and for some reason the calculations in other sheets omit any data that does not contain the hours field.
I have tried formatting the cells as hh:mm:ss but this does not force inclusion of the hours field.
I guess what I'm asking is:
1. Is there a way of making excel include both data in the hh:mm:ss format and :mm:ss format in the calculation?
or
2. Is there a way of forcing data in the :mm:ss format to include an hours field populated by zeros?

I want to have a fullscreen application all the time, so for this I've added to things in my code:
1) Application.DisplayFullScreen = True in Workbook_Open
2) Same in WorkBook_WindowsResize
I open my workbook, it goes fullscreen. Until now all OK. However, if I press ESC or doubleclick on the topbar, it goes out of it.
Now the weird thing: if I click the "Restore window" button (which is right under the application maximize button that incidentally I have disabled) it snaps on fullscreen and THEN it keeps this state forever, even on ESC/doubleclick. Which is what I want.
So my question is: what does exiting from fullscreen and going back in change so that the workbook event starts triggering, and how I can replicate it programmatically? I've already tried WindowState = xlNormal followed by xlMaximize, it doesn't change anything.

I do not write code in it, just use it for school and work on the most basic levels. I am trying to suck an Excel document into SPSS ( Statistical Package for Social Science) for my Engineering internship. I am logging temperature using Omega Engineering, Inc temperature probes. When converting the data recorded on the probe to excel, it does something funny. I will try my best to explain what it is doing. If you format the cell to general, it gives you this (38917). Then simply changing the format to date I get this (7/19). How do I change this to make it so the date is the only memory in the cell. I don't need the other number in there because when I suck it into SPSS it only sees the 38917 number and not the date. I need the date to do my statistical analysis on the data.

I am working on a project from work and am having trouble with formatting the final version that is sent to customer.
We have one tab that is named "initial" where all of the information such as Serial number, connection type, etc. is entered.
We have another tab, named "final", that is automatically populated with this information. This final tab is locked from the end user.
Once the user finishes entering data into the "initial" tab they delete the rows below that are not used. Because these rows are now deleted the "final" sheet shows "#REF!" for all of these cells.
I have attached some screen shots as examples.
I would like to be able to put some logic in the formula to make the output on the "final" tab match the initial tab. Ideally, when the user deletes the rows that are not used on the "initial" tabs this controls the amount of rows seen on the "final" tab and we don't have all of the #REF! symbols.

Let's say my horizontal scrollbar is 2/3 of the way to the right and I'm currently viewing columns EA thru EZ. If I turn on VBA macro recording, the Excel auto-generated VBA macro code that gets saved when I press Ctrl-Home is Range("xx").Select, where "xx" upper-left-most cell based on frozen panes [e.g. Range("T3").Select]. While recording the macro, when I press Ctrl-Home my Excel view horizontally scrolls all the way to the left such that cell T3 is selected such that I'm now viewing columns T thru AS (which is what I want). If I start with the horizontal scrollbar 2/3 of the way to the right again and I use Range("T3").Select in a VBA macro, cell T3 gets selected like before -- but Excel doesn't horizontally scroll all the way to the left to where I would be viewing columns T thru AS; it just stays with columns EA thru EZ in view. Is there some way to force the horizontal scrollbar all the way to the left with VBA code? I tried searching the FAQ and didn't find anything there. I'm using Excel 2007 on a Windows7 PC.

I am using the below code to force a range of cells to change to Upper Case, what i am after is an exception to the rule for example the words Pick Up i don't want to force to upper case, is there VBA i can add to the below to achieve this?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
''''''''''''''''''''''
'Forces text to UPPER
''''''''''''''''''''''
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or Target.HasFormula Then Exit Sub
On Error Resume Next
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("w6:w299")) Is Nothing Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
Target = UCase(Target)
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
On Error GoTo 0

the way my spreadsheet's set up so far is that each employee should have a goal of, say, 100 for how many people they need to sign up. But they each have specific geographic breakdowns in their turf, some of which might be bigger or smaller than others, but at the end should all add up to 100 for each employee.
It's not super hard to do since I just take a goal of 100, in this example, and multiply it by the percent of population of the area in their overall assignment and give them a goal for that area based on that. So if Philadelphia has 70% of their total population, Upper Darby has 20% of their total population, and Phoenixville has 10% of their total population -- the goals would come out like this:
Philadelphia, Goal: 70
Upper Darby, Goal: 20
Phoenixville, Goal: 10
Ryan, Total Goal: 100
For some of the employees, that works out perfectly -- but based on the population sizes, the rounding sometimes gets a little off and it could end up like this:
Philadelphia, Goal: 71
Upper Darby, Goal: 19
Phoenixville, Goal: 11
Ryan, Total Goal: 101
For most employees, it ends up being dead-on 100 -- but there are some whose totals are at 98 or 99 or 101, and I was wondering if there was a way to force it to shave a point off or add a point on somewhere, pending on how close the decimal was when it rounded to make sure that it always ends up exactly on 100. (I'm using 'Data >> Subtotals' to get what's being represented above as "Ryan, Total Goal.")

Is there Code for forcing all text in a certain range to Uppercase?
Example: A1:E20
if possible I need the code to be just inserted into the sheet code. Maybe were when the user moves to another cell it changes them then.

Is it possible to lock a cell so that the user must enter the number manually as opposed to using a formula.
There is a cell on one of our spreadsheets that the user should be hand entering the numbers from the general ledger this is done to ensure that the general ledger balance is the same as the spreadsheets totals. However most of the user insert a formula that just copies the number from above into this cell that should be hand entered.

I have written a custom function which is called in lots of cells. It had an error so I modified it. But the modification did not automatically trigger recalculation in the cells where it is used. Neither did F9 (manual recalculation). The only thing that did is hitting F2 for the cell then ENTER. But what a pain to do that for every cell it's used.

I am wondering if there is any way to "force" a number to have three decimal places instead of two and still have that number valued as a number for use in formulas later (like AVERAGE, etc.).
What I have is a combination of HLOOKUPs, IF statements, and Conditional Formatting.
I have a Master Grades sheet and individual Class sheets. I use an HLOOKUP, matching a Student Number in both sheets, and looking in the Class sheet for the P/F indicator. If the indicator is a F, the HLOOKUP is to return the Final Grade from the Class sheet and input that into the Master Grades sheet, forced to three decimal places (whereas the numbers in the Class sheets are at two decimal places) If the indicator is P, the HLOOKUP simply returns the Final Grade from the Class sheet and inputs it into the Master Grades sheet with two decimal places.
I have the failure grades forced to three decimal places so that the Conditional Formatting in the Master Grades sheet highlights the failed grades for teachers and anyone else can see right away that a student failed, but the number still allows the Master Grades sheet to calculate the overall AVERAGE for the student as well as the AVERAGE for that class.
If any of this is not quite clear, please ask and I can further expand on what I am doing.
Here is the code I have right now that is not working correctly (and I know why it's not): ....

I have a advanced filter that works pretty much close to how I want it to. However I would like it to either cancel the new filter or copy everything if it finds 0 matches.
If the copied location is blank it breaks my sheet. So I need to find a way for it to never be blank, either by canceling it, copying everything, or finding some other way I haven't thought of.
Also for some reason my Advanced Filter does NOT Ignore blank "OR" cells. If I place a word in the top cell, then leave the bottom blank, it searches for the top cell or anything and I end up with everything. Its quite frustrating.

I entered an activex object command thing.. and now I'm not sure how to exit out of it.. it just keeps alerting errors messages like reference is not valid and other ones depending on what I type in the formula box.
I just want to remove the object, but I can't get past the error alerts.. they just keep coming every single time I click somewhere on the workbook trying to exit out of it.. so I'm not sure how to even get out of it.. I don't want to open up Task Manager to exit out of the entire program because I didn't save my workbook.
