How To Restrict Code To Current Workbook
Aug 3, 2014
I have the following code linked to a drop down list in my workbook.
[Code].....
It populates textboxes on the sheet with a lookup value result, the lookup value is taken from the dropdown box. The problem I have is any other excel workbooks that are open at the same time, the code is trying to run against those workbooks when I edit them, I can't seem to restrict the code to run only against the workbook in which the dropdown box which the code is linked to, exists in. I have tried moving the code to a module in the workbook but then the code does not seem to work as it does know which workbook the combo box and text boxes which should be filled with the lookuip result belong in
Link to workbook is [URL] .....

I wish to send a workbook but need to ensure that this workbook stays on the computer it is destined for. I understand that for ultimate security excel may not be the best option, however im using excel and with that need to look at the best options available to me.
My thoughts were along the lines of sending a simple application for better words in excel, and having the user fill in a few details, this would trigger a events macro recording A the machine id ( which i have forgotten how to do any any help would be great with that ) or B the user ID to a hidden cell, then on receiving this back be able to use that as a key in the application before sending it out.
Then if the user was to pass this to another person it would not work as the code would not match. Does this seem like a best approach or is there a better way that a similar effect could be had?

I have 2 workbooks. 1 is where data is entered called wksPB, the other is like a database workbook. The wksPB has data to be feed from column B to F and there is a dropdown.
what im looking to do is, if the combobox value is selected as Decline then it should display a messagebox that reference value in cell B is denied. if combobox value is Agreed then the macro should search the database workbook for the text entered in column b of wksPB and then copy data of C:E of wksPB to H:J of database sheet where that text is found and also the approver name in wksPB C24 to the approver cell of where that text was found. I've reached till finding the text but what I get my head twiting on is how to copy the text from wksPB column B:F to database sheet column H:K. Im attaching the sample workbooks and the code where ive reached till.

I am using the below code (i have combined different bits of code which i found on these forums) to open a new workbook, copy all the data in it and paste it into Sheet2 in the active workbook . Also, i want the data to be pasted on the next empty row as there is already data in Sheet2. The data that is being copied and pasted has the same format and it is going to be repeated many times.
The problem i am having is that it is not offsetting the data to the next empty row - i think it is a simple change but i can't seem to get there :s
Also, the code is currently selecting all of the data from the workbook that i open - is there a way i can select all of the data, excluding the first row (the first row contains the headings which i already have in Sheet2 in the active workbook).

I'll soon have an ETL process that will load about 150K rows into an Excel workbook. On of the columns will be the end user's userid.
I need to autofilter that external workbook based on the end user's userid, copy that range, clear a worksheet on the current workbook, and copy that range to the current worksheet.
For example, see the attached workbooks. I need to replace the data in Source.xlsb!Cases with the data in Output.xlsb!Case_List, filtered on my userid, which we'll call foo.

I've created Keyboard Shortcuts to run Macros in "Workbook A". Problem is, if I have "Workbook B" open in the same Excel instance/process as "Workbook A" the Keyboard Shortcuts will run the Macros in "Workbook A".
Is there a way to restrict the Keyboard Shortcuts to only run the Macro if Workbook A is active?
Or is there a way to code the Macro to run its procedures only if Workbook A is active?

I currently have the following macro - as you can see it is quite repetitive. I know it is possible to do this using a loop any ideas on how to do this would be appreciated.
Sub Clean()
Rows("4:4").Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
Rows("5:5").Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
Rows("6:6").Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
Rows("7:7").Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
I thought that this would work - but not so probably some basic syntax error:
Sub Runny()
For x = 4 To 17
Rows("x:x").Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
Next x
End Sub

I am in need of duplicating a current workbook for others use such that when I update information in the original all those who have a copy of the duplicate will get the updates I have made. I have searched all over for linking workbooks together and I am familiar with linking cells and other small bits of information from other workbooks but in this case I want a duplicate workbook that is updateable from my source workbook.

I have a Macro that opens a closed file to VLookup some info and pull it to my spreadsheet then close that workbook. the problem I have run into is writing the Macro correctly so if I were to change the file name of the workbook I am running the macro with that it will still use the range declared for the workbook. I have colored the file path that I want to dim in Blue so that it will be easier to see what im trying to do. here is my current macro that works perfectly unless I save my current workbook under a different file name...
Sub Button7_Click()
Sheets("Sheet1").Unprotect "Password"
Workbooks.Open Filename:="\NDGI-SPARE-1UsersownerDocuments2014Vom ResultsVomResults.csv"

Code:
Sub Final()
Dim NameCell As Range
For Each NameCell In Sheets("! Names").Range("B1", Sheets("! Names").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp))
[Code]....
I want to pull data from ! Names. This code already Renames a new sheet from the ! Names sheet and also puts there name in cell C2 and phone number into cell C3 of the created sheet. I want to put more data from the ! Names sheet. How would i go about adjusting current code to do that?

What is the code to identify the current worksheet name? I want to store it in a variable so I can return to the worksheet later. I thought that the code was this:
myWorkSheetName = worksheet.name
:
:
Sheets(myWorkSheetName).Select
I receive a "Run-time error 424: Object required" message on the worksheet.name statement.

I know this is a simple question for all VBA droids...I guess the challenge is in how quickly I'll receive an answer. I hear the turn-around time on this board is pretty impressive. So here goes...
What is the VBA code for recording the current date without the date recalculating when the form is re-opened. I know the formula for automatic entry [=today()], but I need the date to stay the same. I can assign the date to any cell, so you may theorize any cell in the code. Remember...the trick is getting the date to stay the same once it's been automatically entered.

I want to schedule a print, for lets say every Sunday at midnight. I have managed to find some what of a solution by using the following vbscript and scheduling a print to default printer. Works perfectly if that is all I wanted.
Dim objExcel, objWorkbook, strFile
' Connect to Excel
Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
strFile = "C: est.xls"
' Open the Excel File for Printing
Set objWorkbook = objExcel.Workbooks.Open _
(strFile)
' Print to Default Printer
Set objSheet = objExcel. ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(1)
objSheet.PrintOut
objExcel.ActiveWorkbook.Close
objExcel.Application.Quit
I do not want to print to an actual printer, therefore if I set my default printer as the document writer, the vbscript gets it as far as the "Save As" page. Is there a way I can add to this vbscript so it will save as well? Can I get it to save as "name"&[DATE], thereby having it save as a different name each time?
Can I change this vbscript to print to a named printer rather then a default printer? I am sure a PDF convertor may be of some assistance with this, but I do not have an PDF converter on my computer, and as this will be carried out on a computer that I will not have administration rights, I can not download one.

I have the formula:
=HYPERLINK("[Book1.xlsm]'Sheet1!A1","To Reachback")
I may however change the name of Book1, therefore rendering the hyperlink formula useless. Is there a way to enter something in place of Book1 that will return the current name of the workbook?
If there isn't, I will have to create a VBA program to update the hyperlinks, and will therefore have additional questions about that shortly.

I have developed a macro, run by a button click, in my workbook.
I have about 5 other workbooks to process, what I want to do is to have my workbook with my macro open, then either copy or import these other 5 workbooks, one at a time, into my current workbook so I can run my macro on their data. Not sure if I need to copy them in or not, but thats all I can think of. I'm not even sure how to do this manually, I tried having my workbook open and doing a file - import on the .xls file, but it seems to be translating my data and I'm ending up with a value of 'f1' in one of my columns, no idea what that is. All I really want to accomplish is to run my macro on each of the 5 workbooks, one at a time.

Is it something as simple as

I've been heavily updating my Budget file I've written in excel. The code I'm working with and having slight trouble with is as follows
Try this formula. Column letter & Row number are for example only. Array formulas will have curly brackets {} emcompassing the ENTIRE formula. You do not add these, you Enter the formula with Ctrl+Shift+Enter and Excel will add them (details: Array formulas). Many more Excel Formulas
Z100 =IF(TODAY()>DATE(2013,1,31),"January's Ending Balance is:",IF(TODAY()<=DATE(2013,1,31),"January's Current Balance is:"))
Basically, if the current date is after the last day of a given month (in this case January 31), then the cell should display "January's Ending Balance is:", if between January 1, (current year), and January 31, (current year), it should display "January's Current Balance is:". The code above does work great, but I need it to look at the current year according to the computer's date, and go by that, instead of having to change the code where it says 2013 to 2014 etc every year. This would be a hassle, as I have a tab coded for each month of the year. Id rather it be automated.

show me the visual basic codes that allow me to attach the current saved workbook to an email (just attach, but not to send the file). So basically, just open the Outlook, send to, and attach the file.

I have a macro that starts when the workbook is open that hides many of the headers and toolbars. It is great and works fine unless you are working on another workbook and need to see those headers and tool bars. Is there a way to display and hide those items per workbook and not for the entire application. here is my failed attempt:
Sub show_excel_headers()
Dim wb As Workbook
Set wb = ThisWorkbook
wb.Application. ScreenUpdating = False
'Display Headings in all worksheets
Dim wsSheet As Worksheet
Dim sSheetStart
Set sSheetStart = ActiveSheet
wb.Application.EnableEvents = False
For Each wsSheet In Worksheets
wsSheet.Activate
ActiveWindow.DisplayHeadings = True

I'm trying to save a file with current date and time...I used the code from the following thread:
Save File Name With Date/time Stamp
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="C:FinalOutput.xls " & _
format(Now(), "mm_dd_yyyy hh mm AMPM"), FileFormat:=xlNormal, Password:="", _
WriteResPassword:="", ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
Now when I try to run the macro, it gives me an error saying: Compile Error, Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment. And it highlights "format" in yellow.
