I am filtering the data displayed in a chart by hiding columns. I would also like to filter the X-Axis labels by hiding columns. If I do this manually I have no problems but when I run the following macro the chart gives a reference error for the X-axis labels.
Sub ShowA2()
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
num = Sheets.Count
Sheets("X-Axis").Activate
Range(Columns(1), Columns(256)).Select
Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = False
For a = 1 To 5
Sheets(num - a).Activate
If ActiveSheet.Name = "A2 Data" Then
Columns("A:Q").Select
Range("A10").Activate
Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = False
Sheets("X-Axis").Activate
Columns("A:E").Select......................
Is it possible to hide some of the number labels on an axis; e.g. in on the chart below to hide the X-axis label 96? Or only start numbering from 97 while the chart displays from 96. Auto Merged Post;Well I have a solution to hiding the first value on the excel X axis values labels just using a custom number format;
[Black][>96]General;
but is there anyway of formating more than a couple of the number labels individually?
I was wondering how I might be able to hide columns based on their 1st row labels with vba - I never know where these columns might be on different file I get but I want to hide the same columns every time. right now I am just specifying column numbers or letters but it's not working out:
At the top of my worksheet I have a combo box which allows you to select a local authority name; and all relevant information in the worksheet is highlighted (using conditional formatting, extra series in charts to make relevant points highlight in red, etc).
I've added a series to the chart and changed it's type to line - then with the data labels positioned beneath the points on the line I can get conditional formatted x category labels - all outlined here: [url]
Because my x category labels are fairly long I've had to give them an orientation of -90 and make the minimum y-axis value equal to -200 to give enough room beneath the chart to fit the text in.
As I said above, the values below 0 are just there to provide space at the bottom of the chart, so my question is: is there a way to hide these negative values? I'm sure I've done it before, but can't remember how - I thought maybe a custom number format of #;[White]# would work, but it just inverted my text (white text on black background).
I have created a UserForm that has a ComboBox and depending on the number selected I want it to show that number of Labels/TextBoxes...
So if I select "0" nothing is shown, if I select "1" one set of Labels/TextBoxes is shown, select "2" and two sets of Labels/TextBoxes are shown... but also if I have selected "2" and then select "1" I want the second set to be hidden again...
Also I know I should have renamed the Label/TexBoxes to make it easer but I was adding things and making it up as I went along...
I'm using Excel 2010 on windows 7.
Code: Sub UnHide_NewRoutings() If (Engineering.ComboBox2.value) = "0" Then Engineering.Label4.Visible = False Engineering.TextBox5.Visible = False Engineering.Label9.Visible = False Engineering.TextBox9.Visible = False
I have a macro in which i can enter the rows i want to hide.
If i want to hide "position 32" i have to enter the number 8 of the row. This works fine. But now if i want to hide the "position 32" from Sheet1 it also should hide the rows 4-8 from Sheet2 [Data with 32].
Or if i hide "position 34" in Sheet1 [row 10] it also should hide the rows 14-18 in Sheet2.
If Sheet1.Range("A34:A94") = "HIDE" Then For Each cell In Range("A27:A94") If UCase(cell.Value) = "HIDE" Then cell.EntireRow.Hidden = True End If End Sub
I have a very large spreadsheet that I work in and then print from. When I print, I need to hide about 20 columns which I do manually. I am curious if there is a way I can do this easier. If I could somehow filter columns, or set mutliple columns to a name for a dopr dowm box, or possibly a macro.
I am trying to use an IF formula to do the following for each row in a large spreadsheet: If the value in column W = 0, show columns A,B,C and E. I have one formula I've used that doesn't work, but as posting what I think is the correct answer could get my post deleted, I won't put it here.
I've come across a spreadsheet where certain rows and columns (typically top rows or left columns) are hidden; however, there's no way to unhide them (the unhide function is grayed out) and it doesn't seem to be protected or no visible macros/vba on the file.
I have a spreadsheet that has 28 columns for time entries. Typically only the first 12 columns are used, so I would like to hide the remaining 16 columns (which makes the spreadsheet much more user-friendly). It would probably be nearly impossible to teach all of them how to Unhide the remaining columns (and re-Hide), plus I would like to use the full-screen function when employees enter thier times. I would like to use a form control in the column heading so that when the employees 'check' it, it will Unhide and then re-Hide the columns. Any way to do this? Seems like a VB thing to me (out of my league, but would be happy to add one in!).
I have created this macro (below) in a standalone spreadsheet and the expected results are that Columns A,B,C,D,G,H will be displayed after I run the macro.
But when I use the same macro in my production worksheet (columns and ranges adjusted accordingly) this macro creates the following results: Column A is displayed and all the rest are hidden (B,C,D,E,F,G,H). I am stumped as to why this occurs. Can you advice me as to how to get this macro to work and display A,B,C,D,G,H ?
I'm using Excel 2003 and want to hide columns D:E & I:J. I have script as follows which hides I:J but I am unsure how to get it to include the other 2 columns.
I once saw an excel sheet where I could hide or unhide a section by some + and - signes above the column-letters.... I have searched for this but I only get the ordinary hide/unhide solutions.
I'm attempting to put code in that will hide 2 individual columns when a particular cell in another column has no value in it. The cell, however, has a formula in it, and I'm not sure if that is my issue.
Essentially, if the formula in A32 returns a value, I need columns M and P to Hide. If it doesn't return a value, I need them to stay put. The value returning in A32 is a number, but it can be treated as text as it is an ID number and is not needed for any calculation.
Here's how I have it set up now:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Range("A32") "" Then Columns("M","P").EntireColumn.Hidden = True Else Columns("M","P").EntireColumn.Hidden = False End If End Sub
Using VBA or by other means, I want to disable user entry in cells G1 to X1 if the user places a value in A1, similarly if the user places a value in A2 then disable user entry in cells G2 to X2, and so on.
I am using drop-down lists in a cell to filter out some data in a spreadsheet. Works great, but I would like to hide certain columns depending on which item is selected in the drop-down list. I have written a macro to do this, but I cannot get the macro to run automatically every time there is a change in the drop-down list.
The other day I had posted a thread asking if anyone could help me ensure certain columns were hidden when a .xls was opened. Here-> http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/showthread.php?t=312938
Now Id like to be able to hide the columns only if row B of the colum contains the text "hide me". Please not the cell may contain other text, such as "Q1, hide me"
My goal is to be able to hide certain columns in the workbook based upon certain criteria. Moreover, I need to be able to hide columns in a certain tab even if I working in a different tab (i.e. if I am in Tab "A", I want to be able to hit "Ctrl + Alt + X" and be able to hide columns in Tab "B").
In order to accomplish this, I selected the Visual Basic icon. I then clicked on the "Insert" drop down menu and selected "Module". I have included a sample of the code that I wrote and inserted in to the module (see below). This general pattern of code repeats itself for 16 different macros - all in this same module.
I have a list of 24 columns (12 months each for forecast and actual data). I want to put VBA code in the worksheet that will hide a column based on a cell value in each column. On line 4 there is a formula that returns either "show" or "no". The columns are AS:BP. The code needs to run on a change in any of the cells AS4:BP4.
Currently using this code to search Column D and hide if the cells are blank. How would I go about also hiding Column C as well, If D is blank?
I am using the spreadsheet as a grading template. The assignment name is under column C and the grade under column D. If there is no grade then I would like to be able to hide the unused assignment column along with the empty grade column.
Sub HideColumnsInd() With Application .EnableEvents = False .ScreenUpdating = False End With Dim rCell As Range For Each rCell In Range("D3:D48") If rCell = "" Then rCell.EntireColumn.Hidden = True Else rCell.EntireColumn.Hidden = False End If Next rCell Application.EnableEvents = True End Sub
I'm trying to hide columns M:R on sheet "1up" if cell N4 on sheet "Fill In" is blank and unhide those columns if N4 contains an "X". Columns AK:AP should also hide or unhide on "1up" if AD4 is blank or not on "Fill In".
I've pieced together the below code by recording macros and piecing together code I've found in other threads on here. I placed the code in Sheet 1 (Fill In).
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) If Range("N4").Valuse = "X" Then Sheets("1up").Select Columns("M:R").Select Range("M7").Activate Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = True End If Sheets("Fill In").Select Range("N4").Activate If Range("N4").Valuse = "" Then Sheets("1up").Select Columns("M:R").Select Range("M7").Activate Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = False End If Sheets("Fill In").Select Range("N4").Activate End Sub
I have a sheet that shows multiple part numbers as the headings for the columns. The rows show each individual job/install. If there is an "x" in the column, then the part is needed and must be pulled by the warehouse. If there are no x's at all in the column, I would like the column hidden so that I can print out a concise "pick list" for the warehouse that only shows those items needed.
I am trying to let Excel automatically hide unneeded columns. A brief description: In this sheet one should enter a number of "projects" into cell DW7 (7,127). The maximum number of projects is 60. Each project consists of 2 columns (with already prepared formats and functions). The projects are numbered from 1 to 60 (the actual project number is in Cell G6 (6,7), I6 (6,9)...). For this purpose I wrote the following
Sub worksheet_calculate() 'Hide columns that are not needed Application. ScreenUpdating = False Dim i As Integer Dim r As Integer i = 1 For r = 6 To 126 If Cells(6, r + i) > Cells(7, 127) Then Columns(r).EntireColumn.Hidden = True End If
If Cells(6, r + i) <= Cells(7, 127) Then Columns(r).EntireColumn.Hidden = False End If..................
I have a spreadsheet that is updated monthly. THe spreadsheet has a column for each month of the year, plus other columns. I would only like to display the current month and all past months - with the future months being hid from view. SO each time the user opened the file all headers with future dates will be hidden from view. I only would like to see the past months and other other no date column information. Is this possible to do in excel?
