How To Create Comments In Excel
Dec 19, 2009
Currently we have an excel sheet in which it contains four sheets(sheet1,sheet2, sheet3 and sheet4). In this sheet1,sheet2,sheet3 and sheet4 there is some text data in the columns.
what we are looking is we want a comment box to appear when one moves the cell focus in a sheet (sheet3 or sheet4) to a cell in the field column. In the comment box it should display the data which is in the other sheets(sheet1,or sheet2). The items in the comment box should be data field column,fight type,Defect colour, and list in english column.
The comment should be temporary..i.e it appears when focus is on the particular cell in column field and disappers when focus is moved to another cell.

how to create a function in VBA that works exactly as SUMIF, except it will also add a comment in the cell that references the formula, where the comment would be a list of the individual cells being added? Basically the comment would read "2+4+5+6" or "2,4,5,6" or something along that.

I am a novice user and not very familiar with Macros or VBA. I took a macro I found on contextures and got it to resize comments that already exist. However, I am trying to get it to also create the comment (with no content) if the comment does not already exist, and then resize it. This is what I have so far:
Code:
Sub ResizeCommentsInSelection()
Dim mycell As Range
Dim myRng As Range
Dim lArea As Long
Set myRng = Selection
[code].....

Finding a way to tell excel to pull Comments and Tags from files. I pulled the following code from another source:
VB:
'Force the explicit delcaration of variables
Option Explicit
Sub ListFiles()
'Declare the variables
Dim objFSO As Scripting.FileSystemObject
Dim objTopFolder As Scripting.Folder
[Code] ....
I have been using it to get the Name, Size, Type, and relevant Dates associated with files in a folder. However, this doesn't seem to work with finding Comments, Tags, etc.
I have found functions that are used to pull Comments and Tags from files but haven't been able to incorporate them in to the code I already have.

I am having with Excel 2007.
When I hover the mouse over a cell with comments, the status bar displays a message; for example "Cell A12 commented by A satisfied Microsoft Office user".
I only get this message for one column. The cells in all other columns give my first and second name as the author of the cell comment.
Why it is only effecting one column. I have been unable to change the annoying "commented by A satisfied Microsoft Office user" to my own name.
Is there a macro that can do this? I tried two macros I found online, both from a few years back, but neither of them worked.

Excel 2007
I have a few dozen pictures created when a macro runs. They all have unique names. I'd like to add comments to cells, where the cell.value decides which picture to pull. All the examples I've found online show how to do this if you have pictures saved on your hard drive by referencing the file path "c://mydocs/...blahblah/"
Is there a way to reference the pictures I've created/named with my macro?
Here's the snippet of code that creates the pictures and names them:
Code:
For i = 2 To Application.CountA(Sheets("Allocation").Rows(1))
Sheets("Allocation").Activate
Set rInput = Sheets("Allocation").Range(Cells(1, i), Cells(10, i))
sPicName = "_" & Sheets("Allocation").Cells(1, i) & "_"
sSheet = Sheets("Allocation").Cells(3, i)
dDate = Sheets("Allocation").Cells(5, i)
[Code] ......
Here are some examples that are close to what I'm looking for.

I have an Excel 2007 workbook with several sheets, and various cells in several of the sheets have column headers with a description in the same cell enclosed in curly brackets, e.g. Header{Description}. I would like to to keep the column headers in their respective cells, but move (cut) the descriptions along with the brackets to the respective cell comments.

How would you prevent the copy/paste of cells that have comments?
Also, how would you allow cells with comments to be copied and pasted without pasting the comments?
I also have an aside question about the forum advanced search. When searching for multiple search words, how would you type the search to include all words, for example, "prevent" & "paste" & "comments".

I am using MS Excel 2007.
I have column "A" a list of my PDF filenames and File path in Column "B". I want to establish hyperlinks for each of these PDF filenames (column A) and link it with the file path that I generated in Column B.
=HYPERLINK(B1,A1) did it very well, but unfortunately when converting to PDF, the hyperlink is not working, and I believe the conversion retained is only in text, so now my only resort is hardcoding it by VBA.

I have this form (Invoice) on a spreadsheet and I want the footer (Taxes and Total) to appear only at the bottom of the page or of the last page, if many. I call this a "Report Footer" because no matter how many pages the invoice might have, this section will be pushed to the bottom of the last page.
I need to ask because we all know that we cannot program formulas in the actual Excel spreadsheet footer!!Facture-Logicim.xlsx

I am attempting to create a type of customizable catalog using Excel. This idea is to have one worksheet in the workbook contain a standard set of info for all products, including a picture of the product. Another worksheet would be the "selection" page where a user puts an "x" next to the model number they want in their customized catalog. The third worksheet would contain the customized catalog entries.
I have been able to get all the data info to assemble correctly on the third worksheet using the IF function (data like model #, price, availability, description etc.) but the master data also contains a picture of the product. Try as I might, I cannot find a way to get the image to move over with all the other data.
Is there a way (functions or VBA) that I can keep the image from the master worksheet with all the data when it copies over to the customized catalog page ?

I am struggling with trying to create a Top 10 list in Excel 2007. I have googled and search the forum but could not find a solution. (Aplogies if i have overlooked a thread)
I have attached an example of my problem.
1. In Column F i would like to extract the names of the Top 10 performers, based on their respective score. Hence, based on the scoring in Column D, Column F should extract the Top 10 performer names from column A.
2. In Column G, same as above, but bottom 10 names
3. From the attachment, you will view some names are highlighted. I.e. Gary & Neil, and Ian & Michael. These are highlighted based on the fact that they have equal scores.
When extracting the Top / Bottom 10 list, i would like to rank the performers with same score differently. e.g. Gary & Neil, both scored 0%, hence they are equal. But in the Top 10 list, i would like to rank Gary higher as his absolute target is higher. (63 vs. 27) . Same applies to Ian & Michael, Michael should rank higher in the Bottom 10 List as his absolute target is higher.

The situation I have on my hands is over 200 users, were the majority can't use Excel's built in function to create PDF's.
Yes, I've tried to teach them, but I'm probably not a good teacher.
So, I've resorted to create a button at the top of the worksheet, that says "Create PDF". I thought this was gonna be very easy to program, but alas.
Is there a way to start the built-in Excel dialog that happens when you click "Create PDF/XPS" in "Save & Send"?

Code that will autofilter my sheet for rows that contain either a 1,2,3, or 4 in Column "Z". Then, create a new workbook for each unique value in column "O" and save that to a folder on my desktop named "Contracts". Next, while still filtered by by "Z" and for every unique value in column "O", filter and name a sheet in the new workbook for each unique value in column "B". Finally, while the main sheet is filtered I need to copy and paste the visible cells (minus header row) from columns C,D,E,F,G,H,S, and U to consecutive columns in the newly created worksheet beginning in cell "A9".
I am using excel to create some contracts for a few partners. Each partner could work with several of my clients and I need to give each partner a personalized contract for each of my clients with which they work.
I hope my description of the problem is not too confusing. If so, let me know and I will try to clarify exactly what I am trying to say.
I have tried to combine some code that I already have but, being a newb with loops, I can't seem to get it to do everything.

I have a report that i want to print from excel. There is 25 pages one for each of 25 different city markets. I would like to print from Excel to PDF. I have Adobe Standard so i can go file print and change the printer to Adobe but each sheet i print it makes me type in the file name that i want to save it. I repeat the process multiple times throughout the month so i would like to create a macro or something that when i can run and every time i print page 1 it saves it in a certain folder as the name Report #1, and so on is that possible?
I have created a macro to print the reports in order but i have been having to type in the name of the file for each report.

My situation is as follows:
1. I have one sheet with all the information about my customers, such as customer name, address, mobile number and email. I have also added customer reference no...... this could act like a primary key in databases...... This is SHEET 1.
2. my other sheet, lets call it SHEET 2.... is basically a template of my quotation where at the top I need to enter the customer details such as customer name, address, mobile number and email.. Sometimes I have returning customers and I need to enter their details again and again.... it is time consuming.
Initially I would like to enter all my customers detail into SHEET 1.
When I have to create a quotation in SHEET 2, I would like to enter a customer reference number and it should bring all the data from SHEET 1 about that customer and place it into SHEET 2 (quotation template)...
