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 have a single button I want to use to call a macro to: 1.Hide columns C:AZ if they arent already hidden 2.Unhide columns C:AZ if they are already hidden.
I have written a macro to hide any column (within a range of columns) that has an 'x' in it. By putting the 'x' in the column, it allows the allows the user to choose what columns they want to hide. I have an inverse macro as well that unhides those hidden columns.
These macros work perfectly in Excel 2003, but they do not work in Excel 2007. In Excel 2007 I get a compile error: can't find project or library. As a note, all other macros in my spreadsheet (Module 1) work.
The macro code that will populate and input box and ask you which range of columns and range of rows you wish to hide, hide the columns and advise you via a message box that it has been completed
I need hide/show some column by using Macro Button. I have attached the excel sheet( name VBA testing.xls). I need to hide column K,L,N,O & visible column G,H by clicking button "Plan A".Similarly i need to hide the column G,H,N,O & unhide the column K,L by clicking the button "Plant 2. Similarly by clicking the Button "Plant 3", hiding the column G,H,K,L are needed whereas column N,O will be unhide.
I have a simple macro that I have been using to hide columns in a very large spreadsheet. Essentially, the user has access to buttons that allow him to choose between a variety of the most commonly used views. For some reason, when I add columns and adjust the code to hide/reveal these columns, I get:
"Run-time error '1004' - Unable to set the Hidden property of the range class"
with the Debugger highlighting the code for "BO:DC". This problem occurs for several of the similar buttons, including toggle buttons, that hide/reveal columns. I am aware that custom views can be created in the drop-down menu, but I wanted to keep these buttons on the sheet as a quick means of moving from view to view and toggling columns between hidden and revealed.
My spread sheet is a church offering register that is used to record weekly contributions. Column A contains the names of the individual contributors. Columns B through BA are used to record the weekly contributions for each of the 52 weeks of the year. Row 1 of columns B through BA contains the Sunday date MM/DD/YYYY. I would like to have a macro that would scan those cells looking for a date < today. If that condition is true, I would like to hide that column. When date = today or date > today the macro can end. The goal is to have display the current week's column immediately following Column A.
The sheet will be protected with a password (in the future, users will have varied access privileges).
Column A is designated as the "Button" Column.
There are 5 buttons here. Each representing the area on the sheet that needs to be viewed. Once the button is pressed, it takes you to that section of the sheet. At this time, I have designated each column area as:
a-z aa-az ba-bz ca-cz da-dz
I have tried this formula with opening tabs, but this won't work.
I've tried using multiple loops in the forum but cannot seem to figure out how to actually get them to work properly using the conditional VBA codes on two separate worksheets. The first code snippet is checking cell values from row 6 to 148 as such:
Sub Check_Shifts() 'Insure all shift entries are completed If Range("K6").Value < "1" And Range("I6").Value < "1" And Range("G6").Value < "1" Then Range("G6").Value = Range("F6").Value Range("I6").Value = Range("F6").Value Range("K6").Value = Range("F6").Value ElseIf Range("K6").Value < "1" And Range("I6").Value < "1" Then Range("I6").Value = Range("G6").Value Range("K6").Value = Range("G6").Value ElseIf Range("K6").Value < "1" Then Range("K6").Value = Range("I6").Value End If If Range("K7").Value < "1" And Range("I7").Value < "1" And Range("G7").Value < "1" Then........................
I want to hide and unhide columns based on a cell's value.
If D6 of the ‘Summary’ Worksheet Is <> to ‘Test1’ and <> ‘Test2’ THEN Hide columns D:K of the ‘Charts – Source Data’ Worksheet OTHERWISE Unhide columns D:K
I'm trying to record a macro which will hide and unhide columns K:P of data, but I only want one button. I know how to do this to produce one button for hiding and another for unhiding...but I want one combined button.
How to use vba, how I do this via the macro recorder?
I have a workbook with several sheets that have basically the same template but some have many more rows that others..
I am using the following code to hide columns based on cell value to "tidy it up" for printing.
Code: Dim i As Long For i = 170 To 2 Step -1 Cells(39, i).EntireColumn.Hidden = Cells(39, i).Value = "N" Next i
I would like the VBA to determine what the row number is based on the row header e.g. "Prioritised Courses", rather than having to maintain the code each time new rows are added.
I would put it at the top or way down the bottom, but multiple (even less excel skilled) users will be using the "hide columns" functionality.
i have created a spreadsheet to simplify our work flow, I am stuck on what is probably the easiest of the commands.
basically have rows dedicated to specific codes and the colums represent values relating to each code, all codes have a different set of values, the attached example only has a few variables but the actual worksheet will have several hundred.
the idea is the user will input the code they wish to get details on in A2 and then press the command button and it will then show (as per the after sheet in the attachment) just the relevant information for that code, so filter the code in column A and hide the columns which hold no value.
where i am getting stuck is I am not sure the best way to proceed, is it best to create the macro button to do the filter and hide or is there a better way using vlookup and a pop up window asking for the relevantcode to be inputted to to retrive the information, again understand there will be hundreds of colums and hundreds of rows and the values may be 20 or 30 colums apart for some of the Codes so this simplification is really saving the user a lot of time.
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......................
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'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"
