I am trying to create a text box using the format control, however, everytime I click on the box it go to visual basic editor. I believe I'm missing something. I am not familiar with visual basic.
View 9 RepliesI am using the VBA Chart Control and I have the following instruction;
Me.ChartSpace1.Axes(ChartAxisPositionEnum.chAxisPositionCategory).Numb erFormat = "mm/dd/yy"
The chart is a "chChartTypeLine". the problem is that i cannot change the format of the X-Axis to a Date (mm/dd/yy) format no matter what I try? I keeps wanting to keep it as "General", here is the code;
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim ser As ChSeries
Dim cht As ChChart
Dim MinValue As Double
Dim MaxValue As Double
MinValue = Sheet1.Range("D2").Value + 10
MaxValue = Sheet1.Range("A2").Value
What I have is a double quoted, comma delimited text file that is created from an external application, every now and again we need to open the file to make corrections and this is easier if we open it via Excel using the delimiter options, the problem is when saving the file as a csv it removes the double quotes, however I have found some vba coding that adds the double quotes back, which works great, but it changes the format of the date fields from what the original file had from 09-Aug-2009 to 09/08/2009.
I suspect this may be because the file is opened before the double quotes are added and excel changes the format.
Is there any code I can add that will stop the date format from changing ...
After programmatically creating a new activex checkbox, I want to create a sub for it's click event. I have given the object a name, and fortunately the code for it's click event is a one-line call of another sub, but how?
The sub would look like the following except be named after the new control (obviously), and yes, it is just the number in the name that changes:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI made a pivot chart. On the X axis are days of the year. I would like the axis to give the months rather than the days, because it is easier to read. But when I select the chart's axis, I don't have acces to any "number" sheet in the "Axis format" section. I could just change the scale.
ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).Select
With Selection.TickLabels
.Alignment = xlCenter
. Offset = 100
.ReadingOrder = xlContext
.Orientation = 45
.NumberFormat = "[$-41D]mmmm;@" 'I added this line

I'm looking at what appears to be a custom chart. It is a box divided into 4 equal quadrants. In each quadrant is a percentage with the total equaling 100%. In each of the quadrants there is fill equal to the percent that is numerically written in that quadrant. I'll post a picture with this, but if I was talking cells then....
A1 = 15% B1 = 66%
A2 = 4% B2 = 15%
The backround image behind the number is filled up by volume equal to the percentage indicated. They are also color coded with red representing the highest percentage quadrant filled.
To top that, there are little arrows along the sides of each quadrant indicating an average score.
My first question is WHAT TYPE OF CHART IS THIS THING!, and second can this be done in excel?
I have a table (attached example with only a SMALL part of all data) I would like to transform this into pivottable format without copying and pasting. In row 2, all of the numbers pertain to years. Column B has the number of years in force for each property account (Column A). I
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm essentially creating a basic table and I have my first page created exactly how I want it. Header, footer with page numbers, and the main page consists of a table with borders, column headers, and every other row highlighted. I'm making the table for a small company to record the results of equipment tests that they have to run every morning. What I need it to do is to keep that format on every new page that gets activated. The users of this particular form that I'm making are not particularly computer savvy, so asking them to recreate the table everytime they need a new page would be asking quite a bit.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI want to create a custom format for a cell for entering in "cup measurements". I want to be able to type in 5, 1/4, 1/16, etc. and have the word "cups" appear after the number in that cell. I formatted the cell to say the word cups after typing in the numbers in my cell using the code "cups".
ex: 0 "cups" works fine for whole number
so then if i change it to 0/0 "cups" is works great for only 1/8 but not 1/16 or whole numbers. Then I looked at other custom codes that already existed in my formatts so I attempted to try this code which I just kinda came up with
_(0/00);_(0);_(0/0); "cups"
well it isn't doing what I want and If I use the 0/00 "cups code and I type in 4 cups the cell then says 4/01 cups.
What does my code need to be for me to show whole numbers and and size fraction without having it look weird?
In order to export an excel table into another program I first need to save the excel file as .txt. The .txt file can then be imported by the other program.
First I however need to make excel understand that the value should be a text and not a value. I therefore format the number as text (0000150235) by adding "0000150235". After saving the file as .txt the format changes from "0000150235" to """0000150235""". I do however need the format in the .txt file to be "0000150235". Can anyone tell me how I can save "0000150235" as .txt and get the value "0000150235" in the .txt file.
I have an excel sheet full of dates in text format and want to convert them into regular format. For instance, one of the dates listed is in text as "60801". I'd like it to show in regular date format of mm/dd/yyyy, so that 60801 becomes 8/1/2006.
I have a workbork for employee time keeping. I have designed an Input Box that has 15 text boxes (7 diff hour types, 2 weeks, one total box). I have everything working properly except I want to make the control source relative. When the user clicks on a name of an employee (A column), then clicks the macro button, the Input Box appears. I need the text boxes to be linked to the cells E:S on the same row as the active cell. I've tried typing in ActiveCell.Offset(0,4) and variants of it, but all are rejected. How can I link the text boxes using active cell and offset?
View 8 Replies View RelatedRather than use Control-F to find the text in a cell, is there some VBA programming that could do the same and then go to the cell or cells containing the text input to be found? I tried recording the macro to find, but it would show up in the VB Editor because I had to close the find function down to then stop recording.

In D2 I have: =B2
In D3 I have manually input: (space)3-08
As you can see the CONCATENATE puts the "39569" date in A2 But the second line puts the text date as I prefer. What I would like to do is put in a formula or macro in D2 and down that will change the "Mar-08" to "3-08" so it CONCATENATEs correctly to column A. Simply: I'm trying to avoid manually inputing the text version "3-08" (or whatever M-Y) into D2 down a hundred or so rows!

Need to create a set of aligned text amts from various cells...Tried Format but unable to get right combination...I've looked at many threads and most seem related to getting amt from text instead of reverse.
Cell may contain nothing or a monetary amt, negative or positive. Output needs to be in format of "$9,999.99-" or similar...with leading zeros suppressed but a min of "$ 0.00" showing, so that above/below amts with be decimal point aligned in a fixed font situation.

I'll get straight to the point: How can I change this text format from 474556788 to 0-47455678-8 (dash added after 0 and before the last number). I need to apply this to around 5000 rows (can't do that manualy). I want it to be int his format:

I am trying to store some information in a cell from a UserForm. The two sets of information I have are:
InvoiceNumber(number with no decimals)
InvoiceAmount(currency with two decimal points)
The problem I get is when I use the following command to store the information, it stores the information as text rather then a number.
Worksheets(CustomerName).Range("C" & Position + 1).Value = InvoiceNumber
Worksheets(CustomerName).Range("E" & Position + 1).Value = InvoiceAmount
I tried using the NumberFormat option as below, but it doesnt fix the problem.
Worksheets(CustomerName).Range("E" & Position + 1).NumberFormat = "$#,##0.00"
Worksheets(CustomerName).Range("C" & Position + 1).NumberFormat = "0"
I have an excel application that I'm developing that is going to be used by two different departments. On one side everything will pretty much be userforms. The sheets they the data I need to pull in for them is on sheets that I have such that their visibilty is equal too xlveryhidden. I'm trying to change the captions on labels using the data on the veryhidden sheets. Something like this.
'frmCurrentProposal is a userform
'lbGroupName and lbGroupNum are both labels that should vary
frmCurrentProposal.Show
frmCurrentProposal.lbGroupName.Caption = Sheet2. Range("B2").Value
frmCurrentProposal.lbGroupNum.Caption = "Group # " & Sheet2.Range("B3").Value
The labels are not changing their values.
I have previous been given the below macro from here that splits a string of text in one cell into groups of 30 and then puts them into several cells, works perfectly.
What I would like to incorpate now is the ability to overide the point at which it splits the text.
i.e. if the inputter puts a "|" (for example) in the original text, this will cause a split in the text and it will restart its 30 count from this point onwards.
Example of what I would like to achieve:
Cell A1 = I would like to change this string of text into groups of 30, where this appears | I would like it to start a new split of 30s from this point on wards and again if another one of these | appears in the text.
Cell B1 = I WOULD LIKE TO CHANGE THIS
Cell C1 = STRING OF TEXT INTO GROUPS OF
Cell D1 = 30, WHERE THIS APPEARS

View 9 Replies View RelatedCan anyone provide a formula to be used in data validation that will control text length (6 digits) and restrict duplicate entries. The best formula will prevent anything other that 6 digits, but question the user regarding a duplicate entry.
For example: if the user enters 123456 no problem, but if 12345 is entered, Excel validation would not allow. If the user enters 123456 again, Excel's validation window would allow but the window will pop-up and ask to confirm.
I'm trying to do is set up a form load event to initlize some controls. Here is my

At the moment, this event is not triggering. I have the code in the code behind my form - should it be in a module? PS: This site is great - it's answered a lot of my other questions so far without me having to make any posts.
