View 10 RepliesI need is for a block of cells (A1:I4) to be visible at all times. I've frozen the sheet so that the top four rows are always visible, but unfortunately the sheet is quite large, horizontally-speaking, so that when users scroll horizontally, important stuff scrolls off the screen.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am looking to freeze row 18 in an excel sheet, however in doing so this really limits the amount of rows below row 18 that can be viewed and scrolled through.
I would like to know if there is any way that you could freeze row 18 and when you scroll down on the worksheet, you can scroll down past rows 1-17 and when row 18 reaches the top row it would lock there? And you would then be able to continue scrolling down the worksheet beyond row 18..
I am having problems with the VBA Editor freezing at the most inconvenient of times when writing code and then clicking to the Sheet I'm working on, it just freezes up the whole of Excel and it has to be shut down and opened up again.
It seems like a memory problem at first, but there is sufficient memory
( 768Mgs, OS is XP Pro, Excel 2000, 9.02).
The work is not lost becuase I'm able to Save even at PC Re-boot, fortunately.
I've tested on 2 different PC's and the same happens. The only way to avoid the freeze it seems, is before I switch to view a worksheet, is to Save then click off VBA Editor and re-open.
When doing so, another symptom is it seems a huge amount of memory is freed up, ( pardon the terminology)
There is also a message that pops up when re-opening that same workbook that there are Formulas Linked to another workbook, but unable to find any after tediously searching every worksheet by using "Find, Look in Formula" there is nothing found, yet.
This freezing may happen twice a minute whilst pointing the mouse cursor from any VBA Edit window or worksheet and it's getting to a point of repetitiously having to Save, click off VBA Editor, and Click back on again each time I need to look at a respective Worksheet.
I would like to have the column titles stay so I have frozen row 1. But I would also like to freeze row 200 so I can keep up with the running totals at the bottom of the form as I fill in information. Is it possible to freeze a pain at the top and the bottom?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a table that is frozen in b5 meaning that the first column ("A") and rows 1-4 are frozen. The table is large with ever expanding rows. What I want to do is, a good few rows down (say row 300), freeze the row at the bottom of my view and use that row as a mean average row. Therefore allowing me to enter much more data above, but constantly be able to see the averages of the data I am adding.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using Row 3 as a my template to insert a row for every new line of data i enter. I have a macro that copies the format and formula on this template row to insert at the end every time. The problem is on ROW 3 Cell F i am using a Today() function and everytime i insert a row the date is populated. But the next day the date automatically update.
In my search on this forum, i found this macro to supposedly lock in the dates, but i doesn't work.
VBA:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Not Intersect(Range("F2:F10000"), Target) Is Nothing Then
storage = Target.Value
Target.Value = Format(storage, "dd/mm/yy")
End If
Application.EnableEvents = True

How can I freeze a sheet's tab location so it doesn't roll off of the screen? I have a workbook with 30 worksheets all hyperlinked off of the 1st sheet which is the INDEX sheet. The INDEX sheet only exists to make it easier for users to go directly to their desired sheet without tabbing horizontally through many sheet names. However when users use the bottom left arrow buttons to tab through the worksheets, the leftmost INDEX worksheet tab scrolls off of their screen. I realize that they can right click on the left/right tabbing arrows to see a list of all worksheet names, but it would be nice if the INDEX worksheet tab never rolled off of the horizontal tab scroll bar.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm using Excel 2003 and was wondering if there was a way I could Lock/Freeze the contents of a column. For Example:
Cell A1 has the formula =B1+C1+E1 - figure shown is £405
Cell A2 has the formula =C2+D2+E2 - figure shown is £650
Is there anyway I can freeze column A so when I delete column B,C,D,E ect the correct figure will still show?
I have a worksheet (Data Lookup) that initially I just required row 1 to be frozen. Now my worksheet would be much easier to read if I was able to freeze row 115 and row 263 when they reached the top of the sheet respectively.
e.g. Row 1 frozen, when I scroll down the sheet and row 115 hits row 1 that would also be frozen and the same with row 263 when it comes into contact with row 115.
I have looked around and cant find a solution and to be honest I'm not sure if it is even possible.
I know I can freeze panes eithe across a column or row but is it possibleto do both at the same time so that I can have a header row and a few columns on the left of the screen frozen?

In my spreadsheet I would like to freeze columns A, B, C as well as rows 1 - 8.
click on cell A4 -right click - insert cell- shift to right, so figure 2 moves to C4 pushing the yellow cell to D4 right?
what am trying to do is to make column c to be frozen or locked or whatever you want to call it, so if I insert a cell in A4 shifting to the right, the value in B4 jumps to D4 without shifting the yellow cell
I'm using a fairly large spreadsheet to put all the cost and benefits of a large area development phased over different years and then calculate the NPV of the total project. The costs/benefits are on separate sheets and are divided into categories with headers. Every category has a summation row as last row.
Because the project is divided into subprojects I created a column which has a dropdown box (using the Validate function) in which I can attribute that cost/benefit to a certain subproject. Using IF functions and another dropdownbox on my Overview page I can get a insight in the total cost and benefits of the subproject I select in the dropdown box.
So far so good of course, but what I really want is not only to be able to get the Overview page per subproject, but also the Cost and Benefits pages. I was thinking about putting a filter on the column which has the dropdown boxes with the subproject number in them, but when I select a number I want all the headers and "summation rows" of all the categories to freeze/stay in sight, because otherwise the output of the filter is useless (for printing and evaluating) ...
I have a multipage userform with about 7 pages. When page 5 is activated, it caused excel to completely lock up. This does not happen everytime but randomly, and I can't seem to figure out what is causing this.
Here is the code -
If Me.MultiPage1.Value = 5 Then
Call LaborCosts
End If
Sub LaborCosts()
If Not Range("A46").Text = "" Then
frmpricingtemplate.Label29.Visible = True
frmpricingtemplate.TextBox46.Visible = True
frmpricingtemplate.Label29.Caption = Range("A46").Text

I am attempting to set a range of cells (say c5:h25) that can be scrolled through horizontally whilst the rest of the sheet remains frozen.
I'm trying to set this so the scrollable range will automatically expand horizontally as user data is added to the last (h etc) column.

Trying to freeze top 2 rows as headings.
I select top two rows then
Under VIEW / FREEZE FRAMES I select Freeze ... according to current selection.
But what freezes are rows 1-15 and colums A-N, which I never selected.
How do I get Excel to freeze just the top 2 rows?
I have a situation which I hope is fixable. I have frozen panes above and to the left of cell F5, therefore all columns to the right of column E scroll left and right and all rows below row 4 scroll up and down as required. My problem is that I also need the whole top row to remain static all the time.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have created an AddIn for a project I'm working on using the 'Open' command in Excel Vb. While this worked perfectly for the file I was testing it on (1,740,754 bytes) it doesn't work on a new file (121,445,125 bytes).
On testing the code, one line at a time, it gets stuck on
Line Input #1, DataLine
The files only contain one line so I suspect there is too much data for the command to handle.
Is there an alternative?
I am trying to create a graph of my data at the end of each month. The graph will show a count of the number of instances of each category in the data.
For example:
A1 =TODAY()B1 =MONTH(A1)
Column A from A3 down = 1,2,3,4,W,H,L
Column I between I2 and I140 = multiple instances of 1,2,3,4,W,H,L
July
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A3)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A4)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A5)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A6)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A7)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A8)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A9)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A10)),"0")
My problem is that when it comes around to August or the next month, I want the final count of July to be fixed/frozen so it won't change from the 1st of the month. I can then use the July column's data for my graph.
Can a formula convert itself into a value or freeze itself after certain criteria has been fulfilled?
I have a workbook that uses the values that a user had entered into 3 cells to calculate multiple other charts/diagrams on multiple sheets within the workbook. Each sheet would show what the user had entered in the 3 cells to allow them to see what is being used to calculate each table. Is it possible to link these cells so that the user can change the 3 values without having to go back to where he originally entered the 3 values?
For example, a user has entered in 3 values in Sheet 1. A formula in Sheet 2 displays what is entered by the user and uses these calls in Sheet 2 for calculations. When the user wants to change the three values, he would have to navigate to Sheet 1 and enter in the new values to have the workbook recalculate all the tables. Is there a way to link the three cells from Sheet 1 and Sheet 2 so when the user is on Sheet 2, he has the opportunity to change the values on the current Sheet without having to navigate to Sheet 1 to do so?
I wish to copy a merged cell (3 cells) based on if only 1 of 3 cells to the right contain "X". if the top cell does not contain "X" than the merged cell is not copied. Also, is therea more elegant to copy 3 columns at a time rather than do one at a time as my code shows:

This is a project plan with tasks and dates. Column A is the activity number. (Example 1, 2, 3" etc). Column B is the task (Ex. "Complete Report"). Column C is number of days required to complete the task. Column D is the dependency column. (Ex. Cell D2 =1 in other words Task 2 is dependent on task 1). Column E is the date.
I would like to have a seperate start date cell and a go live date cell.
The objective is to enter a start date, and have each column E date increase based on the number of days entered in Column C. If a task is dependent on another and I change the number of days in Column C I need the dependent task to change the same amount of days.
