Prevent Word Wrap In Chart Category Axis

Jan 12, 2008

I do not seem to be able to consistently control word wrapping in the Category Axis area in the series of charts I create quarterly. The individual names appearing are basically the same, but sometimes they word wrap and sometime they don't. In the attached sample, sheet C2-Location: PPO chart is just the way it needs to be - NO WORD WRAP. But if you change that chart to another location it word wraps. (To change locations, go to sheet D2 which controls sheet C2 chart, and change the location to SGO.) It appears that the less bars in the chart the greater the problem.

I have spent 2 1/2 hrs trying to get in control of this. I have changed font sizes, changed the plot area, changed the grid lines scale, changed the cell size on the originating sheet (D2), removed the check mark in Auto Scale on the Font tab, and stretched/reduced the entire chart without consistent success. What is most frustrating is that twice I have "accidently" gotten a chart to all of a sudden not word wrap but don't know why because when I try to repeat what I think I did before, it does not work!

Additionally, at times it may appear correct on the screen, but when I do Print Preview, it is word wrapped! I have searched multiple sites and googled multiple Excel solutions as well as pulled out some books but cannot find any references regarding how to control this.

Prevent To Only Save On Specified Workbook With VBA

am trying to create a workbook template which collects data from users with user forms and some macros. Users assign a project name when workbook opens and then they are able to save as the workbook with name of project name. But i don't want them to save on my template mistakenly. How do i prevent this? I tried workbook_before close sub but i can manage that it recommends to save workbook with project name and if you don't want, it still asks you if you want to save workbook before close

Save Today() As Value To Prevent Changes On Reopen

Jul 30, 2008

I have a spreadsheet that containt a conditional formula to place the current date aka Today() into a cell based on if an entry in the previous cell.

I put in this formula:
=IF(I131>="1",TODAY()," ")

My boss told me to update to this one: (same result)
=IF(I130>="1",DATE(YEAR(TODAY()),MONTH(TODAY()),DAY(TODAY()))," ")

BOTH will change the saved sheet data if we open it tomorrow (due to using Today()). We want to retain the date that it was entered on (which will always be the date he puts entry into sheet).

Is there a way to save the sheet and update the code for Today() to the date value so it will appear as a date when it's opened in the future?

Prevent Save Option If Condition Not Met

Sep 28, 2006

I have a list dropdown from cells A2 to A10. If only when a user selects "orange", he has to key in some description in column B.

Eg if he selects orange in A2, he has to key in some description in B2.

Is it possible to set some formula or macro which prevents user to save this file if he leave blank in B2 or B10, depending on which row he has select "orange"?

Prevent Save As Version Message

Oct 17, 2006

I have an extensive application which I wrote using Excel 2002 (XP - Version 10). However it will likely be used on anything ranging from 2003 - 1997. When I tested it using Excel 97 it gave me the traditional [annoying] message asking if I was sure I wanted to save it under an earlier version than which it was created.

I want to get rid of this message (a lot of my users aren't the most computer literate and the more annoying messages I can avoid the better!)
I tried using:

Application.DisplayAlerts = False


but it doesn't affect this particular message. I need to know how to keep this message from popping up. Please Help.

Under 97 (NOT on my 2002) it also gives a "Do you want to save the changes" message upon closing even though the "DisplayAlerts" is set to false. I'm not sure why this is still coming up.

Prevent Saving Certain Worksheets On Save As

Jan 19, 2008

In my program I have prevented the user from saving the Workbook with the following code

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim p As String
Cancel = True
Do While Cancel = True
p = InputBox("Enter password to save file:", "Password Required To Save", "")
If p = "Enter Password Here" Then
Cancel = False
Else
yn = MsgBox("Wrong password. Try again?", vbYesNo, "Invalid Password")
If yn = vbNo Then
Exit Sub
End If
End If
Loop
End Sub

I also need to prevent the user, when they use the save as, from saving certain worksheets. Ex: There are 6 worksheets in the workbook. I only want them to be able to save the first three. Issues: One of the workbooks that I want to allow them to change has a tab name that changes frequently.

Prevent Workbook Save But Allow SaveAs

Jun 24, 2008

I've got a workbook that I want to keep intact in a central location on our local network, to make it easier for everybody to access, but don't want people to be able to save changes to the master workbook itself. I'd like to be able to disable the 'Save' feature while still allowing 'SaveAs'. The following code (installed in ThisWorkbook) results in the OPPOSITE of what I'm trying to accomplish (i.e., it allows 'Save' but disables 'SaveAs'):

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)

If SaveUI Then
MsgBox "The 'Save' function for this workbook has " & Chr(10) & "been disabled. Please use 'Save As'.", vbOKOnly + vbInformation, "Save Disabled"
Cancel = True
End If

End Sub

Obviously I'd also like to check the filename they're performing the 'SaveAs' under and disallow it if it matches the master filename.

I've thought about making the workbook into a template, which would sort of accomplish the same thing, but it would be much easier to just keep it as a workbook.

I have on sheet 1 of my workbook titled "Self Audit" two pages that have been formatted with questions, and a comments page to put reasons for any descrepancies. Since everyone in my department seems to be more familar with word documents I was wondering how to via VBA put these two pages into a word document that they can type into. Is there a way to do this? I tried a simple copy paste just to see how it would work and I can type but it stretches it into 3 pages.

Create New Word Document From Template And Save As

Jan 21, 2014

I have been working on the following VBA code, which should copy specific charts from excel into specific places in a word-template.

I Am quite new with VBA, so I googled the code, changed a few things, and it works exactly as it should - except from one thing. When the Word-document is loaded from the template, I would like the document to be "saved as..."
Instead of just opening the template. I have tried

Code:
.ActiveDocument.SaveAs Filename:=fname & ".doc"

The code is as follows:

Option Explicit
Sub EksporterTilWord()

Dim appWrd As Object
Dim objDoc As Object
Dim FilePath As String
Dim FileName As String

Excel 2010 :: VBA Save AS (word Document) Not Working

Nov 8, 2012

I have a long bit of code that at one point saves a Word document and then saves it again with a new name and the old (legacy) .doc extension.

This all works find when the user is running Office 2007. However, it errors out for using Office 2010. The reference libraries are all correct (as far as I know).

Code:

Dim myDoc As Word.Document
Dim saveAsName as String

saveAsName = "some text here" + ".doc"

myDoc.Save

myDoc.SaveAs fileName:=(saveAsName), FileFormat:=wdFormatDocument

Copy Text From Word Doc - Write And Save Workbook

Jan 12, 2013

I'm using a code to copy text from a word doc into a spreadsheet. It does it all right, but when it comes to saving, it does not save the open worksheet and prompts me to save as a copy. If I do so, nothing is changed in the original file and the copy file has the information copied from the word file.

This is the code I'm using to write and save the spreadsheet.

...
(VBA in WORD)

Set wdApp = Excel.Application

Workbooks.Open FileName:="C:UsersljsDocumentsword2excel.xls"

Workbooks("word2excel.xls").Activate

Worksheets("Plan1").Activate

Worksheets("Plan1").Range("A2").Value = DOCname
Worksheets("Plan1").Range("B2").Value = CarNo
Worksheets("Plan1").Range("C2").Value = WordNo

ActiveWorkbook.Save
ActiveWorkbook.Close

Save Word Document With Current Date From Within Module

May 5, 2006

I am using a module to create and save a Word document from an Excel module. I'm using the following line to save the document which works fine but (and this is a big BUT)(to quote a TV programme from long ago) obviously everytime I save the document it will overwrite itself. Is there a way of adding the date it is saved on to the file name so it creates a new document each time.

objWordDoc.SaveAs Filename: = "WAGReport"

I have tried changing it like this but get an error message

Dim dtMyDate As Date
dtMyDate = Format(Date, "DDMMYY")
dtMyDate = Sheets("Client Master").Range("d2")
objWordDoc.SaveAs Filename: = "WAGReport" & dtMyDate

Prevent Save Unless All Cells Or Certain Cells Are Filled In

Dec 2, 2007

I have a spreadsheet that is emailed to someone to fill in. They then fill in some information and send it on to someone else.

Sometimes they don't fill in all the information so is it possible to have excel check that cells are filled in and to prevent someone from saving unless this is so? Or maybe a message stating that the cells need to be completed if Excel is being closed or saved?

Export Cell Contents To Word Fields In A Protected Word Document

Jul 6, 2009

Is it possible to export Excel cell contents to Word fields in a protected Word document? For example...

What code would be needed to tell Excel to open up, copy and export the contents of A2 in the active sheet of a workbook to "Field 2" in a Word document named "Report 01" and then put the contents of B2 to "Field 2" etc?

Do both applications have to be opened up at the same time or is Excel able to open up Word on its own? Will the macro be able to....

1. Automatically open up the correct Word document?

2. Look ONLY in a certain folder for the "Report 01" Word document?

or

Bring up a "selection" box that allows you to select the document you wish Excel to export it's data to?

3. Close and save the Word Document without any user intervention?

Replace Word In MS Word With Varable From MS Excel

May 1, 2009

I am in the middle of automating a process here at work, the program takes a word, "pencil" for example, from excel. It will then open up a word document with content already in it (premade template). The program will then find all instances of a string, "placepencilhere" for example, and will replace that instance with the string from excel.

Basically I want to be able to take a variable that has a stored string value from excel and use it to replace another variable in a word document.

I tried recording a replace (ctrl+f, replace tab) macro, copying the code, and inserting it into the excel vba code.. but I get a error message. Here is what I have:
