How To Call A Private Module.Macro From Within ThisWorkbook
Oct 17, 2003
When in a ThisWorkbook macro, I want to call a sub/macro in a Module. Usually you can just do a CALL MACRO1, and it will find it. But my MACRO1 is Private as I don't the users to be able to do a Tools, Macro, Macros and see it. So I don't want to make it a Public macro. So how do I call the private sub/macro from within ThisWorkbook?
Can I proceed the sub/macro's name with the name of the module, kind of like CALL MODULE1.MACRO1? Or do I have to make it public?
I have a sheet that has a macro on it, I would like to run that macro programaticaly but Im not able to call it using Call mymacro type of code. The code that calls the macro resides in a module and the macro is in a sheet. Obviously they are not talking, is there a way to run it remotely without moving the macro into the module?
I would like to have something that will auto run the code in Module1 when the Excel File is opened, but I do not want to code tansfered into the file when it is saved in its location.
I don't mind if the code is tranfered to saved file if in fact I can make sure the code is not run when the new file is opened...
Everything is working as intended at the moment, but when openeing the saved file the entire macro tried to run again. This is what I do not want...
I'm having trouble calling a defined range within a VLOOKUP function in VBA. If the named range is located on the same sheet within which you are running the macro, everything runs fine and all is well in the world.
However, after I relocated the range to a separate sheet (a 'SourceData' sheet to tidy up the user interface sheet), I was getting the following error message:
Method 'Range' of object '_Worksheet' failed
The name is correctly defined - Range("DaysInYear").Select still picks up the correct selection - it's just the VLOOKUP will no longer function correctly.
Here is part of the macro's For I = 1 To NumberOfDays Range("A1").Value = DateAdd("d", -(I - 1), EndDate) If Application.VLookup(Range("A1"), Range("DaysInYear"), 3, False) = 1 Then If Application.VLookup(Range("A1"), Range("DaysInYear"), 4, False) = 0 Then ActualNumber = ActualNumber + 1 End If End If Next I
I have made a macro that displays a textbox containing the contents of a cell once the cell is clicked. The macro is written in the 'ThisWorkbook' module in the Sub 'Worksheet_SelectionChange'.
Now I want to convert this macro into an add-in so that it works on all the Excel workbooks I open. Is it possible to do this? Or is there a way in which we can automatically put the code in the 'ThisWorkbook' module of any open worksheet (doesn't seem feasible).
The attached file contains a simplified version of a more complex macro in which a sub routine will be called a number of times to change the colours of cells in different ranges. However, an error is triggered because the a variable and range are not defined in the subroutine although they are in the main part of the macro.
I know I am missing something obvious here, but I'd appreciate any help in knowing how I can define the ranges in the main procedure and then call the subroutine to change values in the different ranges.
I have some code in which I need to pass the value of "j" from one module to another. "j" is declared in Sheet1 (Data) under the Microsoft Excel Objects.
I am trying to pass a variable called "Filter" from a Private Sub to a Module but keeping coming up with a zero value in the Module. I tried to make the variable Global but that didn't seem to work.
I would like the users to be able to exit the whole module via double clicking the form. When the form is double clicked, the double click event appears and I am wondering how to put code into this procedure which exits the whole module.
I've got a problem referring to a named range in another worksheet.
Private Sub test() Dim var_StartWeek As String ' 0740 This is the value I make a lookup for Dim var StartWeekNr As Integer ' 40 and get this as a result
'*** Here is the named range in another worksheet (It doesn't work) Set rng = ActiveWorkbook.Names("WeekData2").RefersToRange var_StartWeekNr = WorksheetFunction.HLookup(var_StartWeek, Range("rng.Value"), 4) ' I'm doing something wrong here...
'*** If I have the named range in the same worksheeet it works fine 'var_StartWeekNr = WorksheetFunction.HLookup(var_StartWeek, ActiveSheet.Range("WeekData"), 4)
I want to write some code that runs everytime the workbook is initialized. I found out that the code should be placed in the following "Private Sub":
Private Sub Workbook_Open() 'My code End Sub
I know that this code should be placed in the Private Module of the Workbook! I just can not find where is the Private Module of the Workbook in Excel 2007... =/

I am trying to pass a string array into a form. I have added a member string array to the form, and a property to "Let" the array in the the member array.
Private sFormString() As String
Property Let FormString(value() As String) sFormString = value End Property
I can pass a string in using a procedure:
Sub StringArrayTest1()
Dim TestString() As String Dim frmString As FString
but I cannot "modulate" the code, or else I get an internal error (error 51). I.e. this code doesn't work:
Sub StringArrayTest2Mod(TestString() As String, frmString As FString)
frmString.FormString = TestString
End Sub
Sub StringArrayTest2()
Dim TestString() As String Dim frmString As FString
Set frmString = New FString Redim TestString(1 To 2) TestString(1) = "Cat" TestString(2) = "Dog"
Call StringArrayTest2Mod(TestString, frmString)
End Sub
Does anyone know why this happens? Obviously, in the example code its not an issue, but the application I'm using this for is more complex, and some modulation here would be good.
I am writing a lot of code and have separated each section in different modules For example, I have one module titled OpenR2D2 and another titled StoreName
I want the sub in StoreName to run at the end of OpenR2D2 but I get this compile error "expected variable or procedure, not module"
Here's the end of the code where I put it. What have I not thought of?
ThisWorkbook.Activate
Range("B9:G9").PasteSpecial R2D2data.Activate Range("B7:G7").Copy 'Sch Actual VLH
ThisWorkbook.Activate
Range("B12:G12").PasteSpecial Call StoreName R2D2data.Close Savechanges:=False Application.ScreenUpdating = True End Sub
After all the awesome macros I've obtained with the help of all of you, I now have over 30 macros, each in its own module. I have tried without success to re-name the modules with no luck. How is everyone organizing these?
I have 3 different sheets with a private sub on each all labelled
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
The macro's runs fine on each page.
I want to put a macro on a separate sheet that i can run each of those macro's
I did initially copy the original private macro and change the
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
to
sub report()
But I couldn't do all 3 in the same manner. i did change each name to something different... the other 2 subs did run, but they didn't do anything except put the massage box on the end saying that "the macro has finished".
I need a line of code so that when I hit commandbutton2, the Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) event macro on the same page DOESN'T run. The button clears certain lines, and when it runs the change event it ends up in an error, and I don't need it to run when hitting the commandbutton.
I have a private sub macro for Sheet1 as shown below
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Address "$B$2$" Then Sheets("Start").Select Exit Sub End Sub
And I have another macro (call ADDNumLine) that add additional data to the Sheet1. How do I temporally disable the Private Sub above when executing Macro AddNumLine?
I have a spreadsheet with near 300 tabs, each with a picture in the tab. The main tab has a list of all other tabs, the goal is to allow the user to click on a cell next to an entry, and have Excel flash the referenced tab to allow the user to see what the entry is referencing. I have written a simple macro that activates a desired tab, unhides it, displays a message box to pause the macro, rehides the tab, then returns the user to the main tab.
Rather than creating a macro for all 300 tabs and creating buttons I would love to use the Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByBal Target As Range) or some variation thereof, to make my life much easier. The name of the tab is in cell A2, so I would want to have the user click on cell A1, activate the macro, then take A1 to A2 with something like A1 = A(x+1)->A2, then display the tab listed in A2. So rather than have 300 macros with Sheets("XYZ").Visible = True, I would love it to read Sheets(contents of referenced cell).Visible = True. with the contents of referenced cell coming from some manipulation of the cell I clicked on...
Where can I obtain some working examples or explanations as to what, where, when, why, and how these Public and Private Sub are correctly implemented? I see these code used extensively but not sure why it's there yet. A macro which uses a Private Sub is in one of my workbooks. Due the "progress" of things from here I now need to move to the next curios level of understanding Macro and VB coding.
I'm using a CALL Macro to split up a HUGE macro into different pieces:
Code: Sub RSLDASHBOARDV2() 'Macro recorded 12/14/2010 by Ryan R. Koleno, Pharm.D. 'Last Updated 7/10/12 by Ryan R. Koleno, Pharm.D. 'Do Not Modify Code Unless Given Proper Privileges to do so. Dim APPSPD As Worksheet With Application .ScreenUpdating = False .Calculation = xlCalculationManual
[code]...
The first few macros dealing with page setup and what not work fine but when it hits the Pivot table code for the STATSPIVOT macro it errors out stating: "Run-time error '1004': Unable to get the PivotItems property of PivotField class' at this point in the code:
Code: objField2.PivotItems( _ "TRC").Position = 1 objField.PivotItems( _ "MEDCO MAIL OR AOB").Position = 2
When this macro is not split up it worked fine as written. Am I overlooking something in the Call Macro's code or is there a variable I'm not aware of. I have included the Pivot Table code that errors out as well.
Code: Sub STATSPIVOT() 'STATS PAGE BASED ON STATS DATA TAB Sheets("STATS DATA").Select Dim objTable As PivotTable, objField As PivotField ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("STATS DATA").Select Range("A1").Select
This is the code I use to call a macro when the macro Im calling is in the same workbook.
[Code].....
However, I would like to call this same macro when using another workbook. I copied the macro "Clearformating" and pasted into a personal macro workbook module. However when I add this code to the sheet tab it will not run the macro.
I noticed all the code that i have on a userform using activeworkbook will relate to whatever the last active workbook was "who would have guessed hay" Seeing thisworkbook used a lot i decided to go through the whole project and change all activeworkbook too thisworkbook.sheet1 During this i also made a few other changes that i was confident in, When i run it now it errors on the thisworkbook.sheet1. Is this the wrong way of using thisworkbook to make sure the code always deals with the correct file. (will this ever be affected if the file goes through a Save As) Or is it during my over conifedents that i have made a error somewhere else and the debuger is point me here cos it hates me.
I have a Sheet sheet1 and I want to run a macro when the cell D2 in Sheet1 is equal to 10,7,5,and 3. I only want this macro to run when those values are reached the macro then puts the data onto a sheet called wps. The macro is run as a module and is a sub macro.
