Grid Lines Disappear When Importing Data
Jan 16, 2007
I sometimes import data in the copy-paste way from completely different sources, eg. a program on the web or whatever, which has arranged the data in a table.
It is often succesful with the data neatly arranged in the spreadsheet in columns and rows and all, but sometimes the gridlines disappear even though 'cell format' is set to 'none' in 'grid lines' and the settings have a mark for 'visible grid lines' and their color is 'automatic'. Only the imported area misses the gridlines.
It is of course possible to set some grey gridlines manually in cell format, but then I get them on the print also and I don't want that.

I have a file sheet named "ratio summary." The data to this is linked to a number of different working sheets (not in the attachment for obvious reasons)
Currently the data in the ratio summary is grouped by year but "open" and the Graph worksheet is automatically linked to the data in row11.
However when I group the data by year (i.e. clicking the "-" figure) the graph also changes.
I haven't deleted the data so don't understand why the graph data is changing.

I've been asked to streamline some processes for a company I used to work with before I went on maternity leave (been two years now, my brain feels like its gone to mush). One of the things they have is a document where they input EVERYTHING manually into a word, sometimes the same thing several times. (felt like I had gone back into the dark ages). I know I can set up a template in Excel where all the required information can be imported into specific places within the word document, but Im struggling to find a solution to one part.
They get their clients to fill out an expenses form showing all their monthly expenses, some fields will be filled in but others are not relevant to them so they are left as zero.
How do I go about just importing ONLY the fields that have values input against them?
For example;
Mortgage $2000
Rent $0
Electricity $300
School Fees $0
Contents Insurance $200
Water $80
Pet Care $50
Groceries $1000
Takeaways $0
Then when the data is imported into word it would show up like this (formatted better of course)
Mortgage $2000
Electricity $300
Contents Insurance $200
Water $80
Pet Care $50
Groceries $1000

I have an excel document that looks all nice and pretty except for the little white grids all over it with unused cells. Is there anyway to hide the lines? i dont care that the cells are there just the lines make the form look kinda crappy.

I have created a form for my customers. It is attached.
In creating the form, I have merged cells so that the area behind my text boxes will appear clean (no lines).
However, I cannot remove the lines around certain cells see, e.g. range K21.
I would like to make the form as "pretty" as possible for my clients (and it would help me look good to management).

Is it possible to show a table in a user form? For example I have a table that is 4 columns wide and 5 rows deep with lines seperating both. I have tried using a text box and list box to achieve the results I am looking for but can't figure out how to add lines to seperate data between rows and columns.

I am having a problem formatting a chart in Excel 2010. My chart has multi-level category axis labels, and I would like to have a vertical grid line separating each major group of categories. In Excel 2003, I could right-click on one of the gridlines and then specify the spacing I wanted between gridlines. In Excel 2010, as soon as I indicate that I want multi-level category axis labels, I get a vertical gridline between each category and I am unable to alter the spacing. If I deselect the multi-level axis label option, I can adjust the spacing between the vertical gridlines, but the axis multi-level label functionality is lost. Is there a way to fix this problem without having to resort to using the drawing tools or text boxes to achieve the desired results.

I have many text files basically with the same data from different dates. I am trying to select specific lines from each text, one that includes ".txt" which is the date, ex: "2008_308" and one that includes the word "PIXEL" and the following 5 lines after that.
I found a very similar post to mine and someone provided the script using VB for the question. It works, but it was only for one text file. I would like to use it for multiple text files. The files are all dated, i.e. "2008_308.txt". Although some of the dates are missing.
This is the script, from another posting, for importing selective lines from one text file:
Sub test()
Dim fn As String, txt As String, delim As String, a() As String
Dim i As Long, ii As Long, iii As Long, n As Long, x, y
fn = "c: est.txt" ' ��Change here (File Path)
delim = vbTab ' ��Change here (delimiter)
temp = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").OpenTextFile(fn).ReadAll
x = Split(temp, vbCrLf)
ReDim a(1 To UBound(x) + 1, 1 To 100)
For i = 0 To UBound(x)
If InStr(1, x(i), "txt", 1) > 0 Then
n = n + 1 : y = Split(x(i), delim)
For ii = 0 To UBound(y)
a(n, ii + 1) = y(ii)..........................

I created a table where based in several competences anyone can evaluate performance and potential. My issue comes when based on that result (colum Y in "Perf&Pot" Sheet) I want to export that to a nine box matrix (Sheet 2 "grid" in the attached excel). As could be several people in the same box I wasn't able to com up with a formula that solves this.

creating a template for people. In the template, I want to create cells which instruct the user on what need to be filled in that cell.
For eg. go to [URL] In the box, it says 'Enter word or phrase'. When you click to enter a word, this line vanishes. I want to create a similar thing in Excel.
In Excel, for eg, in a cell it should say 'Enter Name' and when the user enter his name, this instruction should vanish. Also, this instruction should be in GREY and when they user enters his name it should be BOLD BLUE.

Basically, I need to extract data from a grid/table (11 columns wide) and transpose it into a list for use in a pivot table. It like sort of reversing a pivot table to access the original data but I only need 5 of the columns repeated for each occurrence.
I have read many internet sources but they don't seems to fit my needs. Here is a solution from a similar question posted on StackOverflow entitled "How to “flatten” or “collapse” a 2D Excel table into 1D?"
The attached simplified mock-up explains what I am trying to do. I have colour coded the data to understand. The number of rows (10) will always be the same but the number of columns (Branches in this case) can extend for many columns.

I want to create a function called PasteGrid(SourceRange As Range, GridHeight As Integer, GridWidth As Integer)
What this will do is take a long single row or column of data and paste it into a grid with a defined GridHeight and GridWidth, I have came up with the below so far:
Code:
Function PasteGrid(SourceRange As Range, GridHeight As Integer, GridWidth As Integer)
Dim rRange As Range
Dim rCell As Range
Dim DestinationRange As Range
Dim GridWidthCount As Integer
Dim GridHeightCount As Integer
[Code]....
Something appears wrong and when following the code when it hits this line:
Code:
Cells(Destination.Row + GridHeightCount, Destination.Column + GridWidthCount).Value = rCell.Value
The function just stops and I'm not too sure why?

I'd like to automatically populate a 9 box grid using data from Excel. The number of names for each rating can be anything from 1 to 100 so the size of the grid would need to be adjustable. I would like one table for each function and grade. Attached is what I'm trying to do. In the 'example tables' sheet, I've shown how I'd like the tables to look, but with my live data the tables would be bigger so I'd like to do one table per worksheet (or possibly one function per worksheet - so 3 tables).

macro to automatically size an XY grid based on user input (see picture - [URL]......)
I want to enter a value in B6 that will automatically create a new grid or edit the existing grid to increase or decrease it depending on the desired grid size.Once the grid has been sized I want to enter a data table into it, therefore the grid would need to be cleared of contents before it could be resized.I think these are the steps that are needed:
- Enter grid size.
- Area (named range based on existing grid values?) is cleared of the data table.
- new rows / columns are inserted with correct XY coordinates shown based on newly entered grid size
- data table written into the new grid

I'm trying to streamline some processes at work and have encountered a bit of an issue.
I have a source file containing a grid of data (9 columns) with a series of dates they relate to down the left side e.g. 13-Feb-2013. This data covers a whole year.
What I want to do is pull through data relating to a discrete month into a grid in a seperate workbook.
I have a feeling that date ranges and possibly some kind of lookup might be useful but am struggling to see how to pull it all together.

I'm trying to come up with a MapsCo grid to "overlay" geoLoc data. Given the coordinates of a single box within a MapsCo page, I'll can figure out the others once I know how to "from this point, add .5 miles due North and mark another point; from that point, add .5 miles due East and record the next point; etc".

I am having a little trouble with this piece of simple code that just seems to be not working the way i want to. I can't figure why it won't work.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Sheets("Global").Select
Range("B5:F19").Copy
Range("B25").PasteSpecial (xlPasteAll)
Range("B5:E5").ClearContents
Range("B7:E7").ClearContents
Range("B11:E11").ClearContents
Range("B13:F13").ClearContents
Range("B17:D17").ClearContents
Range("B19:D19").ClearContents
End Sub
for some reason if i try to do Range("B5:F19").Select and then do Selection.Copy, I get an application error message. This has never happened before and for some reason it just started to act up. If you want to know what it does when I run this macro.. it actually doesn't go to Sheet "Global" it stays in the same sheet and does all the copying/pasting/clearing in the same sheet as the button is. I made sure that the tab is "Global" and i have confirmed caps. spaces everything.

I have 5 or 6 macros set up to import stats from the internet to specific sheets. I want all of my imported data to be pasted starting at A1. However when i run these macros, the data IS pasted at A1, but when i run it a second time (or the next day after the pages have been updated), it pastes the data BESIDE the previously pasted stuff. here's what i mean..
say my imported data spans columns A to S.. everything's fine. but tomorrow i want to update the data so i run the macro again. well, it pastes the new data to A1 and again it spans from A to S like it's supposed to, but now it also tacks on the same paste job from S to, AG for instance.here's the code... There are currently 5 macros that have this problem. I thought by selecting A1 as the starting point, i could alleviate all of this but apparently not.
