Plug Excel Value Into Access?
Dec 16, 2013I'm running an Excel program such that the user inputs a variable. The program opens an Access database which is linked to the Excel sheet where the variable is stored. Access then runs macros containing queries based on that variable. I've noticed that the link to Excel is slowing performance and I'd like to speed things up, some code that would allow me to plug the variable into Access for use in the query without having to link to the Excel workbook.
This is a piece of the code I use in Excel which runs the Access macro:
Code:
For iter = 1 To bottom_row - 1
If IsEmpty(MyMacro(iter)) = False Then
Set AccessApp = CreateObject("Access.Application")
With AccessApp
[Code].....
Everything works well as-is; it's just slower than I'd like. Due to other constraints I'd rather not go into here, I really am forced to use this kind of Excel/Access interaction. In other words, the user must use Excel to run an Access query.
Plug-in Scores To A Results Sheet
Sep 30, 2009I have two spreadsheets. One is a listing of football scores from the previous week. The other is the schedule for that week. I would like to be able to populate one from the other.
Even if someone could point me in the direction of which functions to use that would be helpful.
Based on the data in the results spreadsheet in columns M, N and P ... I need to look in the scores spreadsheet and compare to columns A, F, H and I. I would need to retrieve columns G and J for their scores.
I've been looking at SEARCH, LEFT AND VLOOKUP so far!
Searching Another Sheet To Plug In Values
Dec 7, 2009I am trying to create a sheet for invoicing. I have a sheet I want to use as a database. I want to search the database from the "invoice" sheet and fill the fields once i have found what I am looking for.
attached is a sample database I will use. I dont want to use the whole row, only selected colums. for example short_item description, item_number, Brand, SRP, ect. I want to search on the "invoice" sheet, for example, item description,and fill out the rest of the necessary fields in that row with data from my "database".
Plug In A Variable Rather Than Read It From The Data Sheet
Jan 25, 2007I am trying to limit the amount of stuff I write to a sheet, and I figured I can just pass variables around inside of a routine with out having to write each step to a sheet like I am doing now.
Below is the formula showing Z2 as where parsed data is
CVersionFormula = Evaluate("Z2 * 10 ^ (4 - Int(Log(Z2)))")
and here it is, with me trying to plug in a variable rather than read it from the data sheet. The variables for ease are read from the data sheet. In this example I would read in Z1 and assign it "CVersion", then the formula then takes CVersion (a 4 digit number) and makes it a 5 digit number..
CurrVersionE = Evaluate("CVersion * 10 ^ (4 - Int(Log(CVersion)))")
But I don't think I have the variables in there right.
How To Get An Overview Of Free Rooms
Mar 19, 2007have six different locations in a city in which I have 6 beds for people with psyhiatric problems to sleep in.
The managers of the different location send me whenever somebody new comes or somebody leaves the following information:
Name of client
Start date of stay (when new clients arrive)
End date of stay (when client leaves)
I have to keep all record of clients that have used our locations, so the list gets very long during the year and it is then very hard to see which beds are still available.
What I would like to see in a separate sheet is which location still has how many beds available. I then mail this overview weekly to organizations that assign people to my locations.

Aug 8, 2012I have a pivot table with slicers to easily filter the data. I need to add a column with editable, free text that is filtered along when using the slicers.

Moving Row To First Free Line Of Other Sheet
Apr 30, 2009Im looking to use this code to move the selected rows of a workbook over to a new worksheet in the sameworkbook. It works fine however for some reason it pastes the row over the last row.
how to modify it so it pastes the row on the first empty row?
Sub MoveSelectedRows()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim strSheetName, strCellAddress As String
strSheetName = ActiveSheet.Name
strCellAddress = ActiveCell.Address(False, False)
Rows(ActiveCell.Row).Cut
Sheets("Closed Projects").Select 'Change sheet name to whatever consolidated tab name is.
Range("A" & Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Range("A" & ActiveCell.Row).Select
Sheets(strSheetName).Select
Range(strCellAddress).Select
Rows(ActiveCell.Row).Delete
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Also, as a side note, how do I put a prompt in so that once I press the button to move the row the user is prompted asking if they are sure they want to move the row? 'Are you sure you wish to move row X?' Yes/No.
If yes - run rest of script
If no - abort script
Free Memory As Macro Running
Aug 18, 2007I have a macro that is performing a lot of string comparisons and sorting out a lot of unformatted data using a loops and instr calls and passing results into arrays to store in a database. The macro works flawlessly, however as the macro runs, over time is gets slower and slower until its barely moving 10% as fast as it was to start.
I run the macro in a separate windows session so I can continue working w/o the macro affecting other excel related tasks I work on. I can tell the computer begins to slow down as the macro runs. Is their any way to clear the system memory while the macro is running, maybe every 5 minutes or something?
Free Form Textbox In Search Field
Feb 10, 2013How can I allow users to either select the SKU from the dropdown menu, or to type in the SKU # in the dropdown menu (C5 through F5) and have it populate the data fields for that SKU when they press the 'Enter' key?
Currently using Data Validation ='KVM Comparison Data'!$B$4:$OP$4 and cell logic to allow the information to be pulled from a hidden tab =INDEX('KVM Comparison Data'!$D$2:$OP$65,MATCH('KVM Product Comparison'!$B6,'KVM Comparison Data'!$A$2:$A$65,0),MATCH('KVM Product Comparison'!C$5,'KVM Comparison Data'!$D$4:$OP$4,0))
In short, I want to keep it the way I have it, but allow users to also have the option of typing in a SKU and pull the data up that way. I know this is possible, I just can't figure out how to do it, while keeping my current solution in place as well.

Feb 21, 2008Right now I'm modifying a figure based on size data in an excel table.
I'm modifying the X/Y coordinates of the points of the freeform shape with VBA, however, I have to use absolute x,y coordinates.
I'd like to be able to move the shapes throughout the sheet. With fixed coordinates, this makes it difficult. I'm hoping there's an easy way to it
Compound Interest After Mortgage Free Point
May 10, 2008I've found this calc but it doesn't compare to my particular scenario/goals: http://dinkytown.net/java/InvestmentDebt.html. The major difference is that this dinkytown calc requires a new loan to be put in place and I am not in a position to refinance my current mortgage. My plan is to pay an extra $267 (b3) to the mtg (b4). It will take 128 months (b6) to pay off the mortgage. After that point, I need to calculate what the newly freed capital (b5) would do if I put in an account (i.e. a CD or a simple US savings account) that had an Annual Percentage Yield (APY) of 1, 2, and 3% for 20, 15, 10 and 5 years. I thought that I had the right formula in place for cells b7:b8 should the account earn a 0% rate of return, but I think it's faulty since it gives me a negative number for 10 and 5 year accumulation periods.
View 2 Replies View RelatedLook Up Data And Plug Into Form - User Form In Reverse?
Jan 14, 2009I have created a registration workbook for this year's youth sports league. All of the information is entered into a User Form and separated onto it's appropriate sheet designated by the child's age. Next year, I would like to use this year's workbook to look up returning players.
Will it be possible to add a "lookup" button into my form, or create a lookup program, that once the registrar clicks on the correct player, the information is plugged into the User Form, the registrar adjusts the age and any necessary info, presses enter, and the information is copied into the appropriate category in the new workbook? I haven't worked with User Forms long enough to know if they can be filled in that way, but if this can be done, you are the people who would know.

View 2 Replies View RelatedVBA To Change Background Colour In Free Form Depending On Text In Cells?
Apr 3, 2014I have a spreadsheet with several freeforms. I would like them to change backgroundcolour, if the content in a cell is equal to another cell.
Basically I would like my shape "Freeform1" to change backgroundcolour to RGB (0, 180, 0) if Sheet1.Range ("A1") = Sheet2.Range("D3").
If it's not the same content in both cells, I would like the freeform to remain unchanged, that's RGB (79, 129, 189).
This should happend automaticly, so I don't have to click the shape to make it happen.
VBA - Distinguishing When Cell Is Edited By Data Validation List Or Free Format Text
Mar 20, 2014VBA code which can distinguish whether a cell has been edited by:
selecting an option from a data validation list (DVL)
or
manually editing the text in a cell?
The ""Show error alert after invalid data is entered"" option is unticked to allow both selection from the DVL as well as free format text entries.
The problem arises when using the code below which makes an edited cell within a range display the new value as well as the prior value(s). This works well when using the DVL but not when editing the cell.
Is there any code which can distinguish between the 2?

Aug 20, 2014I have a spreadsheet which is updated daily. Row A of the sheet has the date in it, and every day a new column is created for the that set of data. I have the below code which works at the moment:
[Code] .....
I want to use this same code on another spreadsheet to do the same process (I need to copy and paste 4 columns (A,B,C + D, into E, F, G & H, then tomorrow it will copy E, F, G & H into I, J, K &L etc etc)). The problem I'm having is that A1:C1 is a merged cell, then D isn't (used as a border to separate). So when it is copied I need to select the merged cell columns and column D (i.e. A:C & D on day 1) and paste it into E:H with E1:G1 merged.
