How To Return To Original Sheet The Name Varies
Oct 2, 2008
I need to know how to select the sheet the user was on at the time they ran the macro. The macro has to select (because I'm not yet smart enough to avoid all the selecting...) cells on other sheets, but I want to return to the sheet they started from at the end of the macro.
Unfortunately, they create these sheets themselves, and I have no idea what they will be named, or where they will be, or what their code numbers will be. They could delete them at any time and rearrange.
Sorry if this is a really dumb question. I suspect it is, but I can't find out how to fix it, and most people are smart enough to avoid the selects so I suspect it isn't an issue for them.

If I ask in a macro to open sheet containing a fax header, copy it, then how do I tell Vb to return to the original sheet to paste. There many sheets that require this from a button click on the sheet and instead of storing the graphic in all sheets I just want 1 copy so file closes faster. I would normally just name the original sheet, but this will change with every sheet.

I've got a User Form that works perfectly. It's activated on Chart Month sheet, you enter data into it and it switches to Comments sheet and copies the data, before returning back to the Chart Month sheet.
I have now added the same functionality to Chart Week sheet. Both Chart sheets use the same comments data, so it doesn't matter if you run the User Form from Chart Month or Chart Week. However, when I run the User Form from Chart Week then it switches to the Chart Month sheet once it copies the data, as I have Chart Month in the code. How do I get it to return to the sheet that it was originally on ie either Chart Week or Chart Month?
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim emptyRow As Long
'Make Sheet30 Active
Sheets("Comments").Activate
'Determine emptyRow
emptyRow = WorksheetFunction.CountA(Range("D:D")) + 1
[Code] .........

The code prints a series of sheets. Afterwards these sheets are "group"ed together. The code can be accessed from 2 different sheets. I need to figure out how to get rid of the grouping and return to the original sheet.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Sheets( Array("Pipe", "Pipe Flow")).PrintOut
UserForm1.Hide
End Sub

I have a workbook with about 200 sheets.
Each sheet contains lots of links to the other sheets, so the user can clink the link and then go to the new sheet.
But, how do I make a "return-function"? That can return the user to the sheet that was active before the link was followed? If possible I would like this do be doable for 5-10 sheets back.
This "return-function" is gonna be used by clicking a button on a floating toolbar I have connected to the sheet.

I have a workbook with 7 sheets. Each sheet has about 9 different macro buttons that are repeated all over the sheet in various locations. I want to return automatically to the sheet and cell that was last active before running a macro.

I'm trying to make cell values in a range change so they appear blank when a checkbox is checked, and when it is unchecked, I need the original value to appear. I have the following so far:
Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
If CheckBox1.Value = True Then Range("BTS").Value = ""
End Sub
...However I do not know how to change the cells back to the original value before it was made blank.

I have a workbook where I have columns requiring entry from A to AD. I have set conditional formatting in column A to show a colour if there is an entry in column AD. I would like to use a macro to always freeze panes in column D (to show the data in the first 3 columns) and the macro would then show column AD in the other frozen pane/split.
As there will always be an entry in column A but not always in column AD I want to be able to select any highlighted row in column A , run the macro and the cursor will be showing in column AD on the same row ( relative reference?) thus showing the entry in AD next to the other info in columns A, B and C.
At the moment I have a macro that unfreezes my header row and is set to always choose the "next empty cell" but I don't know the code to change it to get what I want. Currently if I select any entry in column A e.g. row 100 and run the macro I find the cursor showing in AD2! Of course I would like to run another macro to return back to A on the same row too.....

Possible to look up a value from one excel sheet in another sheet and then return multiple values in the first sheet
For example the following is a sample of sheet 1
NSV Code
Item
12
OLANZAPINE
54
ROPINIROLE
And the following a sample of sheet 2 :
Nsvcode
Item
Division
Speciality
Qty
12
OLANZAPINE
CLINICAL
CS
10
[Code] .....
I want to lookUp the NSVCode from sheet 1 in sheet 2 and return the speciality and qty values in sheet 1 as sheet 2 contains a lot of info I do not require and sheet one also contains various pricing calculations I also require.

I have a worksheet with various data autofiltered. I know when I filter on one of the fields, the drop down arrow becomes blue. If I filter on one or more fields, finding which fields I have autofiltered can become hard to find.
This is my question -- Can I put a button or some type of one touch command were I can take those autofilters off and return the worksheet backs to its original state before I autofiltered?

The problem is when I highlight a row with some color the original color of the row is gone, so I tried this code, and again, it's removing the original format and color for the row This is the code from McGimpsey & Associates : Excel : Highlight row with background colors
Code:
PrivateSub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
Const cnNUMCOLS AsLong=256
Const cnHIGHLIGHTCOLOR AsLong=36'default lt. yellow
Static rOld As Range
Static nColorIndices(1To cnNUMCOLS)AsLong
Dim i AsLong
IfNot rOld IsNothingThen'Restore color indices
[code].....
How can I retain the range's historical color so that when I deselect the row it reverts properly?

I need to copy the sheet being worked on, and place it behind the original sheet.
This is going to be in a Macro enabled template that other users will be rename when they save it.
It will be activated by a button on the original worksheet other users may need to rename the worksheet before copying so I am using ActiveSheet.Copy I don't want to put the sheet after a counted sheet, because other sheets may be inserted before the one being worked on. I am not proficient at VB, I basically search for a macro that does what I need and copy it.
This is what I am working on.
Sub CopySSR()

' CopySSR Macro

ActiveSheet.Copy After:=Sheets(7)

I have some code written to duplicate a template and rename the copy to "Working Copy".
But if I run the code more than once, it breaks as VBA tries to overwrite the sheet with the same name.
Would I would like is for the macro to check to see it already exists and duplicate the copy with some type of incremental integer. Thus the first duplicate would be Working Copy 1, and if the macro is run again, the duplicated copy would be Working Copy 2, etc.
here is what I have so far:
Sub SCButton()
Dim i As Integer 'for making Working Copy 1, 2, etc.
Sheets("SCTemplate").Select 'this file will eventually be hidden and thus the user with only see the wokring copies.
Sheets("SCTemplate").Copy After:=Sheets(4)
Sheets("SCTemplate (2)").Select
'some sort of If statement here to check for the sheets
Sheets("SCTemplate (2)").Name = "Calculation"

I have this lottery userform, there are 49 buttons on it numbered from 1 to 49, when one is clicked it changed from opaque to transparent and also alters a number in my sheet.
To clarify when commandbutton1 is clicked (also number 1) cell B2 in the sheet changes from False to true or vice versa dependant on the current status when the button is clicked.
what i would like is a piece of code which takes into account the number of the button and changes the correct button backsytle to transparent and also the corresponding cell (B2:B50 - 1 to 49 respectively) to True or false.

I have been set a task to do and I wonder if you could point me in the right direction.
Task - extract 2000 emails from a 6000 email database
The 2000 emails have to be proportionate to the original database.
e.g.
The main database has the emails plus town and employee size ranges
Column A - Emails Column B - Town Column C - Employees
So if Column B states that 50% of the entire database is from one town, then my extracted emails must also have half from that town (1000).
Also there are around 5 employee ranges and so they need to also be proportionate to those percentages too in the final extraction.

I am trying to sort a macro out to save my sheet the same as the original when the button is clicked. When i try it from one location it is fine but from another location i get a print error, the error says prit quality is not right, when i debug it highlights: Print Quality = 600 I have tried changing it but keep getting the same error. Their maybe an easier way to do this but not being very good on VB i dont know what to do. This file is on a server and will be accessed from different locations.

I need to copy the Selected Sheet (Sheet name will be different each month) on a spreadsheet and paste the copy to the left of the selected Sheet. Then I need to copy and paste values the entire sheet of the sheet that the copy was made from (the one on the right). I am very new to macros, and I tried recording and manually editing the macro with no success. The number of sheets will be different always as I will be adding this to different workbooks and also because new sheets may be added to any workbook at any time. I attached my code that I came up with, as I am not familiar with code enought to "[code]" my code.

In my file I have a number of worksheets.
What I need to do is make a copy of one of the worksheets, however the name of it varies each month.
I have used the macro recorder to make a copy of a worksheet and rename the copy and this is what it gives:
Sheets("Trial August 09").Select
Sheets("Trial August 09").Copy Before:=Sheets(1)
Sheets("Trial August 09 (2)").Select
Sheets("Trial August 09 (2)").Name = "Comparison File"
Range("B781").Select
The last line is just clicking away from the renaming of the worksheet.
BUT, the worksheet called "Trial August 09" will next month be "Trial Sept 09" so my recorded macro wouldn't work.
I do have a summary worksheet in this file where the user specifies the month and year - Cell A2 will have August 09 and B2 July 09 for this month and next month it'll be A2 as Sept 09 and B2 as August 09 - can I use these to help do the copy?

I have these specific rows (2,3,4,6,43,44,45,63) which I would like to copy and paste it on a designated sheet. But my problem is, the column varies depending on the YEARS.
I do have codes for it, the one I got from the recording. I just do it for all of the rows (formula pasted here) until all of it copied on the summary sheet. However, when I finally finished it and I run it. I could see the movement form One Sheet to another and its not good.
A code that I could use for my better understanding of MACRO.

I am using the following to count my blank rows.
=COUNTIF(report!N2:N303,"")
Using a formula, rather than VBA, how can I modify this formula to accomodate a variable ending range. Without thinking I initially just counted the blanks in column N - yes there were lots of blanks. My goal is for the end user to not have to modify the formula.
I have the following formula in H2
=COUNTA(report!B:B)-1
which would give me the number of rows used for the month. I tried referencing the countif to cell H2 but, as of yet, have not been successful.

I'm trying to find a way to search a second sheet in a workbook for specific criteria outlined in a first sheet (in my attached example, from A3 downwards within the 'list of search criteria' sheet), and then to copy any secondary data found against a successful search match to the original sheet, transposed against its corresponding matched search term.
As you can see in the example, the search term 'bindi' (A4 in the 'list of search criteria' sheet) appears in the 'data' sheet 3 times - the secondary data for these occurences ('feathery', 'Fibonacci', 'glassy') is copied to the 'bindi' row on the first sheet and is offset with each copy to produce a transposed-esque effect of copy and paste.
If it's any help, there are a maximum of 9 matches for a single search term in the real document.
Thanks in advance for your help... I tried to adapt a previous solution given to me for a similar question but failed miserably. I bow humbly to your expertise!

I have been trying to edit a code which previously saved a copy in a new workbook to a specific folder/path. (Additionally it copies and clears some figures, but this is working as it should.)
However I would like the copy to be saved at the same location as the original workbook, regardless of the path the original workbook is saved.
I.e if I need to move the workbook containing the code to a new folder/location, when using the macro, the new copy should be stored in the same folder/location as the original one.
For now it is only saving the copy into "My Documents"
Code:
Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
' Macro recorded 16-02-2009 by ceng
'
Sheets("Bunker ROB").Select
Sheets("Bunker ROB").Copy
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
ActiveWorkbook.Path & Range("D3"), _
FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=False

I am trying to create a data entry sheet to enter quotes on. When a quote is received, I click on my "Add quote" button and a userform appears. Data is entered into the userform (frmEntryForm) and returned back to the next available row.
I also need to be able to:
Edit a row by double-clicking it. When a row is double-clicked, data from that row is passed back to the userform, edited and returned back to the same row (to prevent duplicates).Validate that all fields are complete within the userform where relevant (i.e. if the work is not complete or in progress then the "Invoice Number" and "Actual Cost" fields are disabled and blanked to prevent entry (I think this is almost sorted judging by my tests)

I'm having a 6000+ records, (contacts DB) exported in Excel 2003 format from MS Outlook.
Except the "First" and "LastName", all other contact elements are in the field "Notes" (which is the BZ column according to the exported outlook layout) multiplied by 6469 (records in total)
Useful information are included !!!
I'll give an example of a record...
Column: BZ, Row: 543 says --> "2110000000-6989000000, 1TOK_TER:17-11-010(25 DAYS LESS),
KATERINA 25 (MANTAS KALNNNNN_HYPERTENSION)1000-150, W:95_105, , HR THE 16wks_US NEFRON OK,
NT OK_B EPIP OK(GOLF BALL)_KAMPILI ORIAKI(DIAITA)_DOPPLER OK, O+,TEST OK(TOX_), , , , , , "
Now, I want every time to take the part of the text says "TER:something..." (part of which is date, but not every time with the known format dd-mm-yyyy, as you see here is yyy, followed by something else, with parenthesis here and maybe more data) and copy it in a new cell..., e.g:CO Column, same Row...
Above and every field which by the way is formatted as General (and it is text mainly) are made by merging older excel fields where data laid here and there, that's why you see the commas...with the method of a module with the following code:
Function MyMerge(Rng As Range)
For Each Cell In Rng
Temp = Temp & Cell.Value & ", "
Next Cell
Temp = Mid(Temp, 1, Len(Temp) - 2)
MyMerge = Temp
End Function
Note1:Records with the above string (TER:dd-mm-yyy) are 771 from 6469.
Note2: As an alternative solution I can see an extraction of the TER:dd-mm-yyy string and the copy in a new place, like the:CO Column, same Row...

Create a macro button in 'Spreadsheet 2' that searches 'Spreadsheet 1' for updated information specific to a certain criteria and adds it to a new row in 'Spreadsheet 2.'
There are three sheets
Prospects (where all original data is entered)
Actions -Bob (Bob's new Prospects are added to this sheet)
Actions -Frank (Frank's new Prospects are added to this sheet)
So in this example Row 6 in Prospects (Constituents, Rating, Manager and Solicitor would be added to ACTION - Bob's sheet on Row 5
and
Row 8 in Prospects (Constituents, its Rating, Manager and Solicitor would be added to ACTIONS - Frank sheet on Row 5
Here is the example spreadsheet - Prospects and Actions.xlsx

i have two sheets, one to display results (Reults tab) & the other tab containing the data (Data tab)
what i am trying to do is some how create a search function and have a forumula which contains a LIKE function that looks up the data table
RANGE = Data!A2:K255
the search needs to lookup the primary column Data!B2:B255 ... if any results are found .. show them on the results tab.. and if multiple results are found, display those as well.. (in either instance, the whole row of information in respect to the results need to be dislayed and hopefully no duplicates are found .. eg, Data!A:K of a hit)
is there a formula that can achieve this? oh, the search is TEXT based and there should be no empty cells within the dataset
after some MASSIVE googling, i have stumbled accross this
B1 = Search box (txt field)
A6 (which will be a hidden column) contains =MATCH($B$1,Data!A2:A255,0). this formula provides the first instance of the result and provides the row number
A7 contains =MATCH($B$1,OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6+1,0,8-(A6+1),1),0)+A6.
this is supposed to look for the next row number which contains a match and provide that row number
and througout my other columns, i have
B6=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,1)
B7=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,2)
B8=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,3)
and so on
2 things i cannot recitify..
1, the match has to be EXACT ... unfortunately i cannot use exact .. needs to be LIKE .. eg, i cant use the search word "boat" as the range of data has "boats"
2, it comes up with multile .. irrelevent results.
