I found instructions within this forum to successfully create a macro to start continuous recalcs of my excel spreadsheet to keep now() current.
Sub continuousrefresh()
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:05"), "continuousrefresh"
ThisWorkbook.RefreshAll
Calculate
End Sub
I want to be able to set up another macro to STOP this continuousrefresh macro. I think this should be easy but I am just not getting it.
I have a query with ODBC connection to a SQL database. This query's parameter is linked to a cell. The resultant data is the source for a pivot table. I want to refresh the pivot table, when the query is run. I've tried using the cell that triggers the query....but the problem is that the query takes about 10 seconds to run. By the time the query returns new data....the pivot has already refreshed. I need it to refresh AFTER the query is complete.
I tried adding a cell that sums up the data from the query...thinking when THAT changes (due to updated data), to trigger the pivot refresh. Problem is that I don't know the trigger for when the sum cell changes (ie....formula change, not typed in.)
i have an excel spreadsheet with 27 or so workeets. it contains sales figures in it.
I want to be able to link mutiple cells of this workbook to another workbook so that it retreives that data, So that when I hit the refresh (!) button it will automatically put the data in. I will recieve new sales figures (new files) on a monthly basis so i want it to be able to update the figures to the new figures.
my excel sheet runs through a lot of calculations, opens Flowmaster, a simulations program, passes on data, receivs data and so on. Is there any way to have a user input to stop the whole simulation. During the first tries I had a lot of break point in my debugger. But now I want to have a button to hit or better just some keys to hit to stop it without using the ctrl+alt+del which closes everything.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've got a spreadsheet with a few queries to extract data into my sheet. Whenever I open the spreadsheet, I get a "query refresh" dialog box, asking if I want to "Enable automatic refresh". I keep clicking on the "Enable" button but I have to keep answering the question for each open. Isn't there a way to set "yean - ok - refresh the data" so that I don't have to keep saying "yes"?

Is there a way to select cells with formulas for a top row and then fill down the formulas for these non adjacent, non-contiguous, etc. columns? I can paste a single formula, but not varying.
i.e. Cells A1, D1, and G1 have my formulas, and I want to identify that they have formulas in the first place and then drag down to let's say A10, D10, and G10. I will not know which columns contains cells before hand, and the given formulas are not fixed

I have attached an example Excel file that shows what I am looking for. I have one sheet with a list of parts in inventory. Each part, we'll call them A-F, has a reorder point and will automatically detect whether or not the B column should say order or not. What I want is a second sheet that will list all the parts that need to be ordered continuosly, without the breaks where parts dont need to be ordered.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a set of data that has repeating column headers. So, on a sheet called "January" I have "Forecast" and "Actual" headers that repeat over and over underneath "Week 1", "Week 2", etc. On a different sheet (called "2014"), I'm trying to write a formula that will produce the latest or rightmost number underneath the "forecast" header. What I want is to be able to input data into the "January" sheet every week so that I have a record of progress and I want the "2014" sheet to show the latest data for every month.

View 1 Replies View Relatedfind a continuous data range in Column A of a worksheet with a header in A1. But now I'm thinking that I asked the wrong question. Each day I have new data (a series of numbers) that are moved into column A of a spreadsheet. I never know ahead of time how many numbers will be in the data set. And I need to perform a series of calculations on the data. I need to do the following:
1. Find the range of the data set.
2. Perform a series of calculations on the data set.
3. Report the results in a new location.
If #1 is pre-defined, then #2 and #3 are very easy. However, #1 is causing problems. I can find the range as a string:
Will it be possible to Count continuous occurrence of each signs 1-X-2 and arrange them in corresponding column From Q To AE as shown below in example table: 1
Draw result is shown in cells A2:N11 and result of Count continuous occurrence of each signs 1-X-2 is shown in cells Q2:AE11
For example we take a look row 7 where first sign-2 has occurred 3 times, as
Column Q is for to place result of sign1
And column R is for sign-X
So far count of sign-2, which is 3 times, must be paced in cell S7,
And then count of sign-1, which is 1 time, must be placed in cell T7,
And then count of sign-2, which is 5 times, must be placed in cell V7,
And finally count of sign-X, which is, also 5 times, must be placed in cell X7,

I'm trying to use Indirect in a formula where named range refers to multiple non adjacent cells; e.g. ever other cell {A1, A3, A5... etc}; however, when I use indirect, I recieve a #ref error. Replacing the indirect with the actual named range will make the formula work just fine, or using a named range that a continuous range works fine as well. It seems that indirect doesn't like non continuous ranges. ?

I'm a novice when it comes to macros but was wondering would it be possible to develop one to get continuous averages for a set of data. It's a very big data set with my first observation starting at A1 and last at over A19,000. The data is broken up half hourly so the first average would be from A1:A48 the second from A49:A96 and so on. Can a macro be created to repeat this format rather than me having to continuously highlight the different figures to get an average?
View 9 Replies View Related1) The following formula returns TRUE or FALSE:
=AND($J$15"",(MOD(SECOND(NOW())-1,6)+10) = COLUMN())
It works fine as long as the w/b is busy doing something!
2) Otherwise if the w/b is not busy, the formula appears to be calculated only ONCE at the current time NOW(), and F9 must be pressed repeatedly to re-calculate the formula despite Tools::Options::Calculation is set to Automatic.
3) Is it possible to have NOW() representing a progressive NOW()?
4) If not, can the above formula be modified such that it is evaluated continually for, say, the next 60 or 120 seconds from the current NOW()?
I am using excel2000 on WindowsXP. I have a 2D surface plot pointing to data that can be continuously updated using a scrollbar from the Forms toolbox. For some reason, when I place the plot over the continuously changing cells, the plot does partially update when I scroll, and then fully refreshes once I let go of the scrollbar handle. If I move the plot far from the changing cells, it doesn't refresh at all until I let go of the scrollbar, so I'm forced to use it to page, instead of smoothly scroll. How can I get the whole surface to refresh continuously? Seems some kind of magic "event" logic is at work here....
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a range G7:6107 is sheet2, cell G7 directly references cell C2 in sheet 2. Cell G8 in sheet 2 reference C9 in sheet 1, G9 is C16 and so on. For evey one cell down n column G in sheet two, it reference 7 cells down in column c in sheet 1. I now need to insert the same formula into each cell G7:C107, but I would like to keep the current references that are there. When I overight the current refernce in G7 with the formula, and then try to copy and paste all the way down to G107 it will only copy the reference row by row. so G7 is correct, but G8 refernce C3, G9 refernce C4 and so on. Is there a way i can insert that cell reference into a formula, mabye by useing collum H and type my formula and put "insert refernce" somehow. Is this possible? Or could I do it the other way, and insert the formula into the G7:G107 range.

I am trying to write an array using =sumproduct. I cannot get the second array to work. Whenever I split up the arrays they work fine separately, but not together. This is what I am putting. Any help is greatly appreciated. I am not sure if I am even using the correct formula.
=SUMPRODUCT((B37:B51="Math")+(F37:F51)+(I37:I51="Math")+(M37:M51)),[(B18:B31="Math")+(F18:F31)+(I18:I31="Math")+(M18:M31)]
So basically, I am creating a transcipt. So in column B if the subject is Math, I want column F to be added and so on and soforth. See there are more arrays, because it is broken down to grades 9, 10th, 11th, 12th. And what is being added is their credit (.5 or 1) for the class for each year.
I am building a macro to conditionally edit cells that meet certain criteria within the current selection:
Dim FinalStr As String
If CheckBox3.Value = True Then
For Each cell In Selection
If cell.Font.ColorIndex = Range2.Font.ColorIndex Then
FinalStr = FinalStr & "," & StrConv(cell.Address, 1)
End If
Next
End If
FinalStr = Right(FinalStr, Len(FinalStr) - 1) 'To remove extra "," at the beginning
What I am getting from this macro is a string like "$I$27,$J$27,$E$28,$F$28" that I use later to edit that range, for instance
Range("$I$27,$J$27,$E$28,$F$28").ClearContents
It worked fine, however, I found later that XL cannot handle more than 20-30 individual cell addresses. The error msg I am getting is: " Method 'Range' of object '_Global' failed " Note that it won't be very practical to pick the cells and edit them within the same loop since there are several criteria times several edit options.

I need to graph a function of SIN(X), I did it by writing my x-values in one column with small steps between each value and then calculating the sin(x) value in the column next to it and then graphing the two columns. But this raquires a lot of space on the spreadsheat and it would be convenient to be able to write it on the form y=sin(x). having x defined as a continuous variable. and then plotting the graph

I have a table i need the information compressed based on the values being greater than '0'. The original table Column A-E runs down 15000 rows but i am only interested in the values that are greater than '0'. I would like to see G3 to contain the first cell from A to contain a value greater than 0, G4 to contain the next sell with a value greater than 0 -- so on and so on.
This method will apply to columns G-K, their may be another formula that i am unfamiliar with that will get this to work.
I have already tried to play around with INDEX and MATCH, i think i am on the correct path but i am not looking at something the right way.
