saw the other posts about hidden worksheets and couldn't get my makro to work. The macro works fine when the sheet in question is not hidden but when it is or when I tried to solve it with
Sheets(" total").visible = True
.
.
.
Sheets("total").Visible = False
Why could this be? The problem only occurs when the sheet is hidden or when code like the above are used, what could be done to fix the problem.
This first macro works fine:
Sub UnhideHBPorCholesterolQ1toQ3()
'
ActiveSheet.Unprotect "password"
Rows("58:67").Select
[Code]....
why the second macro does not seem to work. I get a Run-time error that says "Unable to set the Hidden property of the Range Class".
I have an excel document displaying graphs that i would like to link to from a menu page (via a number of buttons). The problem is that i have about 12 of these graph sheets (along with 8 other sheets) and i'd rather not have them cluttering up the worksheet tabs list at the bottom of the screen.
Does anyone have any suggestions about how to handle this? Is a macro to open a hidden sheet and then close it once it is navigated away from a reasonable option? Or does Excel protocol suggest that they should remain visible, despite their cluttering..
I have created an excel worksheet that will provide budgeting and estimating tools for my project managers. All data used to be manual entry and took a good while to complete. I am trying to automate the process with VBA.
I created a UserForm called InfoVerify1. On that form I have TextBox 1 - 10. When the UF opens, the boxes display project information from my worksheet called "Basis of Estimate", also known as Sheet26.
The TextBox1 ControlSource is set to "E4". When I run the macro with Sheet26 active, the proper information fills in. However, when I am on the Start page or any other worksheet and I run the macro, it tries to fill in the text boxes with E4, etc, from the active sheet. I tried changing the ControlSource to "Sheet26,E4" or any combo thereof with only error messages.
how to get it to refer to a cell on a particular worksheet and hold to that worksheet no matter which sheet I am on at the time I run the Userform?
I'm able to export hidden worksheet to PDF. Currently, I have the follow code below which will export active worksheet.
Code:
With Worksheets("ExportTable")
.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=xlTypePDF, Filename:=PdfFile, Quality:=xlQualityStandard, IncludeDocProperties:=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False, OpenAfterPublish:=True
After I hide the tab, when I tried to export it. I have an error message of "Invalid argument". I should use another type of code to export hidden tabs.
Is it possible to protect a hidden worksheet. I do not want them to be able to unhide the sheet unless they know a password to do so.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI was able to create a macro that allows a user to unhide rows in a protected worksheet without unprotecting the other locked fields (see below). My question is: I want to add to this command so that 1 row can not be "unhidden" if the previous row is still hidden. For example, row 25 can not be unhidden if row 24 is still hidden.
Macro command used:
Private Sub Commandbutton4_Click()
Sub Hide_Rows2h()
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="xxx"
Rows("25").Hidden = Not Rows("25").Hidden
ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="xxx"
My workbook contains 10 worksheets. Some users will use all 10 worksheets; some will use only 5 worksheets. If a user is not using a worksheet, I would like to hide it but leave it in the workbook.
However, I want to keep all workbooks in sync even though a user may choose to not use a particular worksheet. When my macros encounter a hidden worksheet, they stall. Does coding exist that allows a Macro to run on a hidden worksheet without making the worksheet visible?
Excel 2003. Windows XP Professional. Bank reconciliations. How is it possible in an unprotected worksheet to hide additional data input in formulas so that visible invalid numbers produce accurate results? Displaying hidden formulas in formula bar reveals nothing. Blank cells have been included in formula, but searches for hidden numbers and links in these cells produced nothing. I'm at my wit's end to correct this misuse of Excel in my office.

2) When I use the userform to add new info, it does save to the worksheet, but when I cose the userform and try to open the spreadsheet, I get the following message, "Userform is already opened. Reopening will cause any changes to be disguarded". If I answer yes, I lose my changes, if I answer no, the changes are saved. I want this message to go away and data from the userform to automatically be added to the spreadsheet.
3) I want to make sure the "Account Number" field has a 9 digit number in it before it can be saved. If there is not a 9 digit number I would like an error message saying "Please enter a 9 digit account number" as a pop up.
4) I want to make sure both the "Account Number" and the "Assignment" fields have been populated before the data can be saved.
I have a button on a sheet that I want to unhide another sheet, but if this other sheet is already visible then I want this same button to hide it.
Here is what I tried and it does work except it runs all the IF's instead of stoping at THE IF that matches the condition.
Sub HideUnhide()
If Sheet2.Visible = xlSheetHidden Then
Sheet2.Visible = True
End If
If Sheet2.Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden Then
Sheet2.Visible = True
End If
If Sheet2.Visible = xlSheetVisible Then
Sheet2.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
I have a spreadsheet which I'm using as a log-in front for a series of other workbooks. The usernames and passwords are stored hidden cells within a "very hidden" worksheet. The workbook is protected and VBA code itself is password protected.
In short no-one can directly view the passwords (unless the password to unprotect it all is known.
What I have found is that someone can use a formula to reference the cells containing the user details. "=a1" for example.
Is the a method hiding the contents of a cell from excel itself? I want the vba script to be able to see the value, but any "=a1" formulas to return a blank.
I need to create a new excel template for work. I was planning to copy a few worksheets from an old workbook over into the new workbook, mostly just for formatting for some graphs/tables that I would then link to the new workbook. A coworker said I cannot do this as copying from an old workbook will bring in "hidden" data that could some way impact the integrity of the new workbook and that the copied/old worksheet would FOREVER be linked to the new workbook no matter what I do. Is this true? If so, are there things I can do to remove any reliance to the old workbook.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI asked for a macro that copy an worksheet and rename it using a userfom!
I received the xls file attached to this mail !
In this xls when I click "Click me to copy s0 sheet and rename it" from final sheet, a userform appear, I type a name there and when I press ok I will have a copy of worksheet "s0" with the name typed in the userform.
If I click on "Click me to copy s0 sheet and rename it" I can create as many copies as I need.
But if I hide worksheet "s0" (using Format /Sheet/Hide) the macro will not work.

I've developed a workbook that is designed to allow users to produce a list of aspects (one per worksheet) and edit them as the aspect changes. However, i would very much like to create a 'log' of changes. For example, everytime a cell is changed the cell reference, worksheet reference and date are added to a list on a hidden worksheet.

I use "ActiveWindow.ScrollWorkbookTabs Position:=xlFirst" to display all available sheets in a workbook. But can the worksheet of the first tab (i.e. at the far left) be automatically selected after the workbook is opened?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to format all cells on all sheets (hidden or otherwise) as "Locked" so when the sheets are protected the user can't see the formulas. This macro individually selects every sheet in the book and applys the formatting. Is there a way to modify this code to accomplish the same thing without having it actually select every sheet? The only reason it is an issue is that after running the macro you end up on the last sheet in the book.

What do I need to add to this so that the Macro will run when the sheet is hidden? The Macro runs an Embeded presentation, which I do not want to be visible in the workbook.
I have a file register in excel which has asked in the startup asking 'Do you want to enable macro?' and when you click yes the formula was invisible but you can see the formula in the formula bar. Formulas don't appear also when you print.
But when you click no, all the results in the cells containing the formula is visible.
I have a worksheet that needs a lot of inputs to calculate something for the user. However one of the inputs is the date. I wrote code to insure that the date entered is only a 4 digit integer number (i.e. 2009). However I want this code to be used only if a certain cell (Cell(3,3)) is modified. Right now if the user enters anything in any cell this code brings a pop not just for cell(3,3).

The problem I'm having is that the code isn't actually looping through the workbook - it's replaying over and over again on the same worksheet. I figure this is an easy fix but this figure is as useful as dog clues to ants.

' Declare Current as a worksheet object variable.
Dim Current As Worksheet
' Loop through all of the worksheets in the active workbook.

I've written some code to try to count the number of cells that are not empty and save the result as a variable but sometimes the code seems to think that the cells are empty even though they are not.
The code goes through rows 1 at a time and counts the quantity of cells that are not blank and compares them with a couple other values.
The strange thing is if I execute the actual function =COUNTA(with the range that I am selecting below) the COUNTA function works properly by itself in certain problematic sections of the worksheet.
This code below seems to work correctly most of the time but I've found a few instances where it is not properly counting non-blank cells:
Range(ActiveCell.Offset(0, 8), ActiveCell.Offset(0, 27)).Select
QtyTests = WorksheetFunction.CountA(Range(ActiveCell.Offset(0, 8), ActiveCell.Offset(0, 27)))
why my QtyTests variable sometimes is saved as 0 even though there may be some cells that contain values?
Here is the expanded code:
Sub Macro()
'Global Variables
Dim QtyTests As Integer, ReqTests As Integer, InitQty As Integer, Cork As String, Corktype As String
Dim result As Long, x As Integer

I have a spreadsheet with 31 rows and 8 columns that are completed as a checklist.
I have a macro that currently increments where required and also pastes the 31 rows again after
What I am looking for is some code whereby if I run a Macro the previous 31 rows are hidden
I have spreadsheet with 13 sheets the first of which is a title page, what I wish to do is hide the other twelve sheets and somehow be able to select them from a drop down box (or similar what ever works with a macro)on the front page, the selected sheets would then appear unhidden.
I am OK with formulas etc but macros are beyond my ability even trying to follow examples & tutorials online has me lost.
The sheets all have specific but different names and none need to be selected more than once (although if possible it would be good). I understand where to put the macro in but as to how it is written ......
It would be great of I could delete all but one of the hidden worksheets. It would be perfect if I could tell the macro not to delete one of the hidden worksheets (called "Test O2 and CO2"), but if that is too difficult, then just one to delete all the hidden sheets would be fine.
im looking for a basic macro for workbook copying, all workbook(all hidden, unhidden, and very hidden) sheets.
i know how to do unhidden sheets of course however the hidden and very hidden are giving me some trouble...i need to also copy over all the macro's, buttons, and drop down box's as well..not just values.
Is there a way that I can share a worksheet that I am working on so people can view it in order to have feedback?
