So I've got an Excel sheet with two cells - A1 and A2. In cell A1, I have a comment that says "Hello". Is there any formula I use to copy the comment from A1 and apply that comment to A2?
View 10 RepliesI need to copy a cell content to a Comment into another worksheet in
the same cell ref.
sheet1
A1 = apple
A2 = orange
Sheet2 - target
A1 = comment (apple)
A2 = comment (orange)
I have a recipe and a set of instructions on a worksheet in the cell range A1:H50 and would like to copy the whole range to a single cell as a Comment.
At the moment I select the range, copy and paste it to MS Word.
In Word, I select all and copy, then back in Excel, select cell, insert Comment then paste the text into the Comment box. Then I have to resize the Comments box. Also doing it this way loses some of the original formatting I could get round that by saving the cell range as a picture and inserting the picture in the Comments box.
Surely there has got to be a better way. Using 2007 Excel & Word
I am copying values from a range of cells in one worksheet to another worksheet in the same workbook. I am able to grab the cell values, but I am unable to copy over the cell comments at the same time.
The code I am using is below.
If Cells(5, 6) = "CompetitorA" Then
Worksheets("Competitor1").Activate
Range("D7:D144").Copy
Worksheets("CompetitorComparison").Activate
Range("F7:F14").PasteSpecial
End If
I have two ranges AA:DD and F:G, I have to find matching pair in AA:DD and in F:G and copy H and add as a comment to D, its hard to explain. see my attached workbook.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering if it is at all possible to have a cell comment automatically update depending on what data is input in the cell (via user input, VLOOKUP, etc.)?
For example, if cell A1 contains the text "CHARLES" with a comment saying "Employee of the Month", and is then subsequently updated with the new text "JOHN" (again, via direct input, a VLOOKUP, data validation, etc.) is there a way to have the comment automatically update to say something else, such as "Team Lead" for example?
I've considered using VBA to accomplish my goal, but am unsure how to compose an effective code to do so. I've also considered perhaps creating a named table filled with all the different comment possibilities I would like to have used in this cell and then inputting a formula in either cell A1, or the comment contained therein, that would then call the corresponding text from that table based on the data in cell A1. Honestly, I'm not sure that what I'm trying to do is even possible;
how to copy the contents of multiple comment boxes and paste in a single comment box.
The big picture is that I have a number of cells with numerical values in and text in comment boxes. I want to be able to click a button to copy the contents of the comment boxes and paste them, along with the numerical value from the cell, into a single comment box, ordered by highest to lowest value within the comment box, then delete the original cells and comments.
I am quite new to VBA but have been coping quite well so far with information of the web and analysing recorded macros.
How, via VBA, would I add a comment from a userform (text box name: txtReason) into a cell that may already have a comment in it? I would like to keep the comment that is in the cell and then have the program add a "/" and the next comment from txtReason..
(using excel 2010)
I am working on a database and trying to remove duplicates. When there are duplicates, I want to take the contents of one cell and copy them as a comment on the cell above (or below).
I tried to work on a small macro to do so, but the contents of the cell cannot be copied (it comes out as a blank).
The long way is to 'double click' in the cell, Ctrl+A, cut, click the cell above, Ctrl+F2, paste. This way is very long as I have thousands of duplicates.
What is the best way to reference a cell in another workbook and return the cell contents and the comment on that cell. I would like the comment to come across as a comment in the new workbook becuase the comment is actually a picture.
Hope this makes sense. I did find a macro through googling but I couldn't get it to work? I don't really want to copy and paste because eventually I have hundreds of sheets & thousands of cells to refer to.?
I have a spreadsheet with some cells which return values using INDEX and MATCH to bring back the entire details of a person based on there membership number. However I require the comments to be attached with the returned values. The comments have there image in, rather than just text.
I have found some answers with vba, which do the process, however you had to manually enter the cell, from which the comment was to be copied from, into a pop up box. This involved finding the box myself to then select the box to take the comment from. In doing this I had found and read the comment, which is the is the process I'm trying to bypass.
attached excel file .I need the data thats there from B4:E8 to be displayed on cell I9 as a comment .is there any way to do it ?
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy workbook has sevaral sheets reresenting the payment methods used by our customers. Each sheet has a range of cells F9 to Q33 which should hold the value of payments for each working day. e.g. F9 represents April 1st, F10 represents April 2nd.
A daily list of values is supplied which then transfers that day's value into cell E1 on each sheet.
On each sheet I manually have to take the value in E1 and copy and paste special: value into that day's cell e.g. today I will paste into cell K21. The cell value then looks like this '12134.12'. I then edit the cell to put a calculation on the end to divide the value by the value in another cell on the sheet. The cell value ends up like this '=12134.12/$G$5'. This is so I can see the values in thousands of pounds or by changing the value of G5 to 1,000,000 in millions.
Tomorrow I will do the same but in cell K22.
I have to do this on 15 worksheets and I have been struggling to get a macro together to do this. I can get as far as copying and pasting but I don't know how to add the calculation onto the end. I also would like to be able to input the cell destination daily probably with an input box so I can be flexible and potentially run it sevaral times if I need to catch up on previous days.
Automatically copy formula to next cell when i enter something in perticular cell ....

Now if i enter date in cell A3 then cell C3 should be automatically filled/copy formula as celll C2. and so on......
then if i enter data to A4 then cell C4 should be automatically filled/copy formula from cell C3.
I have also attached example file.
A1=www.google.com/testing/123/1234.jpg
A2=www.yahoo.com/
I need a formula to copy testing/123/1234.jpg to www/yahoo.com/
End result: A2 = www.yahoo.com/testing/123/1234.jpg
In reality, any data after www.google.com/ needs to copy to the end of www.yahoo.com/
I need to copy information in one cell to only part of another cell. For example:

I have some code that finds the appropriate string for a comment from another sheet. I then want to add the string to the appropriate range selection but am encountering an Object Variable or With Block Variable Not set on this section of
Range("C" & i).Select
ActiveCell.Comment.Delete <== Here Or the Next line
ActiveCell.AddComment (Commenta)
ActiveCell.Comment.Shape.TextFrame.AutoSize = True
Where Commenta is the string value I want to add.
i need to have a way to link a small picture/thumbnail to a cell. so that there is a way to preveiw it. Ideally like what happens with the comments where you hover over the cell and the comment would pop up. or failing that may be a cell linking to the image.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've some code to add a comment with the value of the corresponding cell 9 columns across:
For Each rCell In rRng.Offset(0, 0).Resize(rRng.Rows.Count, rRng.Columns.Count)

I have the code below, and it works perfectly on my Mac. But... on my PC it does not.
The cell comment does not resize horizontally when I enter text. So if I enter a long comment I get a comment box that extends far to the right to fit the contents in. Vertically it is fine, nothing cut off and no extra space.
Any ideas why this would be? Any ideas how I can force the text to wrap in the cell comment box?
Code is below:
Sub AddCom()
Const USERNAME As String = "Greer:"
Dim strCommentName As String
Dim cmnt As String
Dim NoMore As Boolean
Dim Pos As Long
cmnt = InputBox("Please enter a comment")
strCommentName = cmnt & vbLf & Now

I have a set of data with text in one cell and images in a cell adjacent the text to illustrate the text. I am trying to figure out how to add a comment to the cell containing the text and take the image in the adjacent cell and put it in the comment.
Is there a way to do this, or do I have to write a macro that saves the images as their own files and then insert the image files into the comment?
I'm using this formula on Sheet2 to populate a cell (copied across and down)...
=IF(COUNTIF(Master!$F$1:$F$300,$A2)>=COLUMNS($B2:B2),INDEX(Master!$B$1:$B$300,SMALL(IF(Master!$F$1:$F$300=$A2,ROW(Master!$F$1:$F$300)-ROW(Master!$F$1)+1),COLUMNS($B2:B2))),"")
In cell B2 Sheet2, I would like to have a cell comment that is populated by the data in Master! that is alongside the data looked up in this formula, this principle would apply to every cell in my range... Sheet2 B2:AC100.
So on Sheet2 B3 is populated by B11 from Master!, I would like the comment to be the value of A11 on Master!
I want to select any cell on a spreadsheet, then run a macro that inserts a comment to the selected cell with the inserted comment text being the selected cell entry (value/text/ date).
