Trying To Get A Loop Started..
Dec 5, 2008I'm trying to get a loop started to perform tasks and then go to the next line if it has info in it and do the same thing, until it gets to a blank line, and can't seem to get it right. It's been a while since i've written macros, so i'm sure i'm doing something completely wrong.

Oct 20, 2008I start my excel program from a "Shortcut" in "Folder 1".
That shortcut points an Excel program in "Folder 2".
When Excel is started,
Parent.Path returns "Folder 2",
but I really need to know what "Folder 1" was.
It seems that should be available as
when I do "Save File As"
it is pointing to "Folder 1".
Is there a way to find what "Folder 1" really was from the VBA enviornment.

View 4 Replies View RelatedTo Return A Value- Whether It Is PLANNED, STARTED Or FINISHED
Nov 27, 2006I have 4 columns: X, Y, Z, AA.
X - Start month e.g. 1, 2, 3, etc
Y - Start year e.g. 2006
Z - Finish month e.g. 1, 2, 3, etc
AA - Finish year e.g. 2006
In column AK, I need to return a value, whether it is PLANNED, STARTED or FINISHED.
PLANNED is if start date and completed date are both > than now()
STARTED is if started >now() but completed date is > now()
FINISHED is if completed date is < now()
Issues:
1. Start date is computed using Y as year, and X as month and the day is assumed to be 1. Same princilple for the finished date.
2. Column X, Y, Z, AA can be blank. If month (X and/or Z) is blank but year is not, then date is beginning of the year. If either start year is blank but finish year is not, then status should be based on the finish year and vice versa.
3. If both year (Y and Z) are blank, then status should be "NOT SPECIFIED".
VBA To Automatically Answer Pop Up On Open.
Jan 11, 2010I have a few 2007 workbooks that are set up to track and compare individual budgets over time. The majority of the cells are referencing workbooks that have yet to be created.
On opening these workbooks the users are confronted with an informational window informing them that "This workbook contains one or more links that cannot be updated", to which they are instructed to choose "Continue". Is there code I can add to these workbooks that would automatically choose "Continue" once a user enables the security warning for Automatic updates of links? I believe this would be the same as an On Open event.
Files Open Automatically
Jul 25, 2007The background is that I only use macros for a few limited files to save me some time spent on monotonous clicking. Well, yesterday I made three little macros that clear the info in three weekly files and save each with a new date (in preparation for me adding the new info). When I left yesterday, the macros worked as intended. I come in to work this morning, and each of those files now open automatically whenever I open any other file in Excel (just for the first one, nothing happens if I open a second).

Nov 6, 2009I have a presentation that I open from a short-cut. After the "Welcome Page" is opened, I want to open a second workbook in a new instance of Excel after 4 seconds.
I think that I can open the new instance of excel, but I don't know how to activate the macro after 4 seconds.
I'm sure there is a function someplace for this that can be used in a macro.
Then, after the second Workbook is opened, I want the Welcome Page "Workbook" closed, leaving the second Worbook open.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAutomatically Open Comment Box When Data Is Entered.
Dec 22, 2008I have a spreadsheet where we calculate lost time of machinery and how much money is lost. Every day someone enters the hours that the machines were down and then enters comment in that cell stating what happened or what the resolve was. So for example Machine A runs 24 hours a day, but 12-19-08 it had mechanical issues and was down for 2 hours, so the entrant will enter 22 in that cell, then have to right click back in that cell, go to insert comment and enter "need to change belts." Then if he finds out later that they were down another two hours he would have to change the hours, right click in the cell and edit comment. What we have been coming across is that after awhile he just enters the hours and not the comment. Besides firing a lazy operator I would like to make it more user friendly and ensure that the data entry person is entering the comment.
I would like after the hours are entered in the cell for the comment box to automatically open. I figured there has to be a formula to do it, but i am not at an advanced level. Can you help me?

Specific Set Of Count And Sum If Functions Started Returning Error Values?
Feb 20, 2014I am, and have been using several sum- and count-ifs formulas for a time, but when the new year rolled around, decided to improve some of the sheet.
That all being said, the issue started after this. A specific set of my count and sum if functions started returning error values.
I analysed them, they seemed fine, and then selected them and hit enter. Problem over in that cell, as suddenly the correct value is returned.
But that's just it, I know the formulas are correct and working, as, if I select and hit enter on them individually, they return the right value. However, every time I close the sheet and re-open, all the values are showing error again.
I am perplexed. Did I inadvertently change a setting somewhere when I rebuilt the worksheet that is preventing the formulas from resolving correctly? As, like I said before, the formulas are fine, the data they are resolving, is fine. Just does not seem to calculate when I open the sheet.
