I've assigned a single macro to numerous Form Checkboxes (not ActiveX). I'd like the macro to be able to identify the Checkbox calling it, so that if for example, if it were fired by clicking "Check Box 41", the macro should know that.
Is this possible, or must I use an ActiveX control?
I have a add in for excel (self made) and I recently hit a wall when trying to add functionality to it.
I have a form "UserForm1" created within the .Xlam file of the add in.
I want this form to be useable for any excel file that might be open, so putting code in the excel file that needs to use the form is undesirable.
The functions carried out by my add in are activated trough ribbon buttons.
my goal is to have a button on the ribbon that loads the form.
As the UserForm1.show code doesn't work, I will need a alternative.
I did find the code for making the sheet show if there would be a button in the workbook, however I want all code to be in the add in.
I have a hundred or more spreadsheets that I will be applying a utility to. I want to use one button on each sheet to call a form in the utility workbook. That form will have buttons that call individual parts of the utility.
I tried application.run("utility.xlsm!frmStart"). No dice.
I also tried: "utility.xlsm!frmStart". Same result.
How can I overcome this.
The reason I want my forms in a different workbook is the difficulty with maintenance and installation.
I'm trying to call a form I've created when the Print command is run (so when someone prints the document, the document number gets incremented.
I believe I have the command buttons setup correctly, as they aren't giving me any errors in the code, but when I do click the print button, the form isn't popping up. Could anyone give me a hint as to the direction to take?
I'm wondering if it's possible from a button placed on a userform to call the pivot wizard and then create a pivot table, which is then saved and imported into my form ??

What I am looking is I should be able to Pick 1 or all the 3 from Vertical Check Box which would be Primary, or co-applicant and Co-signer and also appropriately pick any from the Horizontal Check Boxes Alerts, Public Records and Mismatch Info.
For example: I the Text Box1 below should appear like this:
Primary: DOB Mismatch or and Bankruptcy any of those options.
Similarly for Co-applicant and Co-signer.
2. I have a Text Box2 on Comments page. The information from Text Box 1 Appears in Text Box 2. Once the form is run I am unable to make corrections if any in Text Box 2. Is it possible for me to edit the test that is copied in Text Box 2.
I have created an XLA using a blank workbook which has a macro (called CompareMan) I have written within it.
I have written a utility (called INSTALLMAN) to install this add in.
When I run the install it creates and activates the add in OK.
The install also creates a toolbar with a button to trigger the macro.
Problem is, when I click the newly created button, no matter which workbook I am currently in I get a message ...
"The macro INSTALLMAN.xls!CompareMan cannot be found".
So my question is, how do I get my button to trigger the macro in my add in?
I am trying to call another macro, but instead of using the name of the macro, I have it in a variable. I am getting an error that says "Compile Error: Expected sub, Function, or Property." Can you call a macro that is in a variable? I basically have a bunch of macros created. I also have a list of the name of those macros on a worksheet in Excel. I want excel to start at the top of the list in excel and run the macro, then move down and run the next macro, and so on. Below is my code.
Sub Commercial_2005()
Dim Macroname As String
Workbooks("bleeg.xls").Activate
Worksheets("CommercialList").Select
Cells.Range("a1").Select
While ActiveCell.Value <> ""
Macroname = ActiveCell.Value
Workbooks("copy of recast_Report_v2.xls").Activate
Call Macroname
Workbooks("bleeg.xls").Activate
Worksheets("CommercialList").Select
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Wend

I have a set of eight files, each of which is refreshed daily through a macro. I wanted to set up a master macro in a separate file that would open up each of the eight in turn, calls its refresh macro (which saves and closes the workbook), and then open up the next one, etc. I've searched the board and Help on this subject, but I keep getting an error:
Sub UpdateCSHoldReports()
' A sub to update all the US CS Hold Reports
' First, change the directory to the one that holds the files
ChDir "s:Marketing_ReportsCustomer Service2006CS Hold ReportsUSA"
' Next, open each file in turn, and run its refresh macro
' The refresh macro saves and closes the file automatically
Workbooks.Open ("VERIFICATION HOLDS 1000 PLUS.xls")
Workbooks("VERIFICATION HOLDS 1000 PLUS.xls").Activate
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(1).Activate
Application.Run ("VERIFICATION HOLDS 1000 PLUS.xls!V1000Refresh")
End Sub
I'm only working on one file right now; I'll add the others when I get this one going. The error message I get is "1004" "The macro VERIFICATION HOLDS 1000 PLUS.xls!V1000Refresh cannot be found." It occurs when the Application.Run statement attempts to execute.
What obvious thing am I missing here? I have checked all the spellings, etc., so it's not something like that.
I'm writing some code in a "control" Excel file that will open a series of other files and successively run some processes. Each of these files has its own unique "refresh" macros, with parameters that vary from file to file.
How do I put code in my "control" file that will, when it opens each of these other files, run the "refresh" macro that is contained within them, and not the "control" file itself?
I have been combining multiple macro's into one large Macro and after research, it seems that only the call function works without any hitches.
Is there a way to use the call feature in one workbook while the macro's themselves, 5 or 6 of them, are in another workbook that is closed?
All users would have access to both workbooks.
The reason I am trying this is because I do not want all the other users to have to choose between multiple macro's and some of my colleagues like to use a radio button to link to the workbook. so it needs to have one file in it...
I have a workbook with two macros that the user can run individually. They unfortunately take a fair amount of time to complete (approx 1 hour each) so I implemented some timing related code that at the end of the macro completion, it notifies them with a msgBox indicating how long it took to run. With that said, I would like to allow the user to run a macro that simply calls the other two so that they can kick it off at the end of the day and they both will be finished by morning. I created a new macro that simply makes a call to each of the other macros individually. The problem is, my msgBox that displays after the first macro completes, waits for "OK" acknowledgement which defeats the whole purpose of being able to run them both via one macro. I have tried to include Application.DisplayAlerts = False prior to calling the first macro but it is not working. Here is an example of what I am trying to do.
Sub runAllMacros()
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Call compileBookData
Call compileLaborData
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
MsgBox "All Rollup Macros have completed execution."
I have a workbook with a 2 macros "PopulateSheetlist" and "SaveEditedversion"
Normally they are each button operated, and prompt the user with vbYesNo style options. I wanted to write a Macro, say "Macroautomatewkbk that would automatically answer the prompts.
Sub Macroautomatewkbk ()
Call PopulateSheetlist
' Always answer YES or OK to any prompts this macro may offer
Call SaveEditedversion
' Answer No for the 1st prompt and YES for the 2nd prompt
End Sub
MsgBox "Both macros "PopulateSheetlist" and "SaveEditedversion"
' Some error handler here, don't know how this should work exactly.
Could any one please explain how to fill in code in the commented sections in the above sample code?
Edit: I tried recording a macro to do the above, but it only showed the zooming and scrolling that occurred, none of the button prompts being answered.
At the moment I have a macro that is assigned to a button. When clicked, it creates a newline, create and copy a column in another sheet. This code works fine :

What I now want to do is make a cell called "Total Number of Sites" and allow user to input data into "D3" manualy. eg if 3 sites, user input 3 in D3 so D3 = 3.
Since total number of sites = 3, Instead of clicking that button I made 3 times, I want to call the macro 3 times using a nother button.
However it doesn't work. This is what I used:

I'm hoping there is some way to call whatever text is stored in the "alt text" field of images placed in an excel sheet for use as a variable / string reference in a macro.
The "alt text" will not be changed in any way by the macro.
how I can go back to the worksheet I was in before I branched off to work in another worksheet via a macro?
I know you can tell the macro which worksheet to go to, but not sure how to get vb to remember where I was and return to the same sheet (or even cell).
I had create a few macro with the macro name the same as the worksheet name.
How can i create another macro to loop through all the worksheet and if there is any data in Cell A1, it will call the corresponding macro. If there is no data, it will go onto another worksheet.
Using a different script application, I would like to run my VBA macros while working in Excel. I was wondering if I could achieve that using PostMessage or SendMessage calls. Part of the problem is that Excel only seems to allow either Ctrl + letter or Ctrl + Shift + letter as an assignable macro shortcut. My script gives me flexibility in that I can assign any key or combination of keys to trigger any kind of routine, like a PostMessage call, for instance. So while working on my workbook, I might want to press, say, ScrollLock followed by a letter of my choice, followed by another letter of my choice (a sort of super shortcut), resulting in the running of a Macro of my choice in Excel.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have created a form that pops up using a macro when the form is opened. It is a simple form that uses optionbuttons in a group to select Intl or Dom.
Problems:
1) How do you get the form to close once a button is selected?
2) The user can close the form without selecting a button (the X at the top).
3) How do you get the data selected onto the excel spreadsheet?
I have a macro running in a workbook that gathers some data (a date, a string and a few arrays). Towards the end of this macro, I need it to open another workbook and run a macro that sits in this other workbook, using the data from the first workbook. I then need it to return some results (several integers) back to the first macro to be pasted into the first workbook.
I gather that I can't use 'Call' as the second macro is in another workbook.
I've found that I can use Application.Run but I'm unsure how to carry variables back and forth using this.
How to move the variables between macros / workbooks using the Application.Run option, or maybe another way of doing things?
the macro works fine until it executes the paste values. At that point, the macro jumps to the "CountThem" function which is located in another workbook. The data that I am copy/pasting is in no way connected to any cells that are using that function. Although, other values in the workbook are passed down from data that uses that function.
I am still in the dark ages using Excel 2000.
This is the code for my macro.
Code:
Sub Current_to_Raw()
'
' Current_to_Raw Macro
' Macro recorded 2/12/2014 by
'
'
Range("N14").Select

I created two macros. One for refreshing the data I pull from a database, and another one adding some formulas I need. On the formulas macro, I don't know how to have it automatically fill until the last row of data to the left of the column with the formula. (Just like if I double clicked it and it filled down automatically). I also tried to combine these two macros, but I get errors and they don't execute.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI just have a quick question with regards to two-way interpolation of data.

View 9 Replies View Relatedhow to obtain what the formatting of a cell is, be it a date, number, custom, currency, etc? I want to acquire the format of the cell in vBA code, in order to display the value exactly as it was formatted in the cell when sending that value to a label on a UserForm or Field on a Microsoft Word form.
Example:
Cell A1 has the value 12/25/2006 formatted with the Date format: "mmmm-dd-yyyy" appearing as December 25, 2006
Cell A2 has the value 9.247 formatted with the Number format: "#.##" appearing as 9.25 to show only two-decimals
Cell A3 has the value 899, formatted with the Custom format: "00000" appearing as 00899 to represent a five-digit US zip code
Cell A4 has the value 1234.56 formatted with the Currency format: I think -"$#,##0.00_);($#,##0.00_)" appearing as $1,234.56

How can I obtain the array values from a function?
For example: Those steps were made by cytop to split a text (btw it works perfecet!!), I just added Function splitText(strSplit As Variant) As Variant ... End Function
VB:
Function splitText(strSplit As Variant) As Variant
Dim datosColumnaIncio() As Variant
Dim iTemp As Integer
Redim datosColumnaIncio(Len(strSplit) - 1)
For iTemp = 1 To Len(strSplit)
datosColumnaIncio(iTemp - 1) = Mid$(strSplit, iTemp, 1)
Next
End Function
So I want to know if its correct like that:
VB:
Function splitText(strSplit As Variant) As Variant
Dim datosColumnaIncio() As Variant
Dim iTemp As Integer
[Code] .....
So when I call the function:
VB : MsgBox splitText("F4")
It throws an error message :s what is wrong or how can I get the array values of a function ???

What I want to do is in column 5 row 1, I want it to show a value only if all 4 columns, row 1 are filled in. For example in the picture I want to show a blank in the first 8 rows but to start showing a value on the rest of the rows, in this example IPE 240 to be the first value. When it shows this value from this row I want it to obtain the value with the highest percentege inside. For example in this picture the correct value first value to be shown in column 5 will be IPE (84%)
Ive done this code so far: =IF(AND(B256<>"",D256<>"",F256<>"",H256<>""),Here I want it to show the value on the row that has the highest percentege,"")
