I have a total of 15 sheets on my excel documents. I've hidden 10 (5 sheets will be shown) of those sheets so i can hyperlink to them from the sheet called "The plan". The name of the hidden sheets are called:
"Week 1"
"Week 2"
"Week 3"
"Week 4"
"Week 5"
"Week 6"
"Week 7"
"Week 8"
"Week 9"
"Week 10"
On "The plan" I have hyperlinked the words to the corresponding sheets then I hid the sheets, now the hyperlinks don't work. What should I do?
I am trying to format all cells on all sheets (hidden or otherwise) as "Locked" so when the sheets are protected the user can't see the formulas. This macro individually selects every sheet in the book and applys the formatting. Is there a way to modify this code to accomplish the same thing without having it actually select every sheet? The only reason it is an issue is that after running the macro you end up on the last sheet in the book.
View 7 Replies View RelatedIn a sheet I have a two hyperlinks with Sheet4 and Sheet5. when I am clicking on first hyperlink then the sheet4 is opening and when I am clicking on the other hyperlink then sheet5 is opening. But if I hide these two sheets it is not opening,
Is there any way so that hide sheets should be opened? will I have to write code for that?
I am looking to publish some workbooks to the masses as a mht (single web file), but I had a couple of questions before I did that:
Is it possible to have a hyperlink to a hidden or very hidden page in the same workbook?
or
Is it possible to hide some rows and have the hyperlink unhide those rows when selected?
Also, will the areas be exposed when opening the .mht?
i have a workbook that has the following sheets
working sheet
job sheet
receipt of deposit letter
completion sheet
delivery note
delivery note (2)

i want to hide every sheet except the working sheet.
I have tried this but the macros bring up an error when i run the macro
my macros involve printing certain pages dependng on what button is pressed
i get an error whatever
how do i stop this
i have an old spreadsheet that i created about a year or so ago.
i managed to make some sheets "very hidden" as opposed to just "hidden" or "visible".
the problem is i can't find them ! i have tried "format, sheet, unhide" but that is greyed out.
i do have passwords for them, but i can't find them to put these in!
I want to create a hyperlink to a sheet named "adsf"
I am currently in a worksheet named: "62b Arcus"
I want the hyperlink to be set by grabbing the name from another cell.
For example, In cell h7, I have the text: adsf
In cell g7, I want to place a formula such as: =HYPERLINK("adsf!")
Except, instead of this, I want: =HYPERLINK("h7!")
In this way, i want it to hyperlink to a sheet name based on the text that is in h7.
But neither of these formulas work. Both say the following: "Cannot Open the Specified File"
After reading up on this I have discovered that I must save the file and include the file name inside the formula.
My file name is: [Maintenance Color Codes of Houses - colour coded2.xlsm] =HYPERLINK("[Maintenance Color Codes of Houses - colour coded2.xlsm]adsf!A1","LINK")
This hyperlink actually works. Yet I have a problem. What if I rename the file. For this reason, I want it to grab the current file name using "filename". I have tried this by the following:
=MID(CELL("filename"),SEARCH("[",CELL("filename")),SUM(SEARCH("]",CELL("filename")),-SEARCH("[",CELL("filename")),1))
This grabs the current file name "Excluding the text outside of the [ and ]. I was able to create this formula myself.
How come I can't replace the part with [ and ] =HYPERLINK("[Maintenance Color Codes of Houses - colour coded2.xlsm]adsf!A1","LINK")
with:
=MID(CELL("filename"),SEARCH("[",CELL("filename")),SUM(SEARCH("]",CELL("filename")),-SEARCH("[",CELL("filename")),1))
These two formulas together would be:
=HYPERLINK("MID(CELL("filename"),SEARCH("[",CELL("filename")),SUM(SEARCH("]",CELL("filename")),-SEARCH("[",CELL("filename")),1))adsf!A1","LINK")
I also want to replace the "adsf" part with a cell number such as h7. So that it says h7!A1","LINK") or in full:
=HYPERLINK("MID(CELL("filename"),SEARCH("[",CELL("filename")),SUM(SEARCH("]",CELL("filename")),-SEARCH("[",CELL("filename")),1))h7!A1","LINK")
This doesn't work either
I know that I have probably created a ridiculous formula for what I am after. I'm almost there but not quite. You may know something far, far more simple.
I run into is that many of our staff don't know there are tabs at the bottom of the page that show different worksheets. writing some VBA code that would grab the names of all the sheets and create a single sheet with the tabs listed as buttons that would hyperlink to each sheet of it's given name. Kind iof an index for the sheets.
Also bonus if 3 rows could be insterted on each of those pages with a button that links back to the index page.
I have a 15 sheet spreadsheet that has many formula and results that are obtained from a "Master Sheet." I want to hide the "Master Sheet" from users view.
When I do so the formulae can't find the info they require. How do I hide a sheet so that users can't see it, but the formula from other sheets can still access it?
i've an excel file where a final presentable sheet is linked to some hidden sheets which i dont want the user to see. Thru VBA, i'm performing some format related stuff in those hidden sheets, using: Sheets("Historical1").Visible = True. later, VBA sets it back to FALSE. But, i want to get rid of this hiding/unhiding, if its possible. My code has the following structure:
Sub tame_blph1()
Sheets("Historical1").Visible = True
Sheets("Historical1").Activate
Dim coll As Integer
Dim startcoll As Integer
Dim endcoll As Integer
startcoll = 25
endcoll = 124
For coll = startcoll To endcoll Step 2
If Len(selection) > 0 Then Call Macro1
Next coll
Sheets("Historical1").Visible = False
Sheets("Table").Select
End Sub
In other words, can we perform the above without hiding and unhiding the Sheet called "Historical1"
I have a worksheet with 28 sheets. I want the first sheet to be the only sheet displayed when opening the file and then want people to have the ability to click a hyperlink to unhide a particular sheet. Then when they go back to the main page (via another hyperlink), the sheet that was unhidden will be hidden again. I was able to put together some code from [URL]. When I click on a hyperlink on the main page, I get a "Subscript out of range" error and it highlights Sheets(strSheet).Visible=True from the Worksheet_FollowHyperlink code. I made a basic spreadsheet with just 3 sheets and plugged this code in and it worked fine so I'm not quite sure what the error is. I attached the spreadsheet I'm using.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have 5 sheets in a workbook. Three are hidden. My code allows user to make as many copies of the hidden sheets as needed and place them at the end by means of a macro button. This works fine, but after multiple copies (4 to 15) it crashes! Don't know what I did wrong.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI tried to Google this question but cannot find the answer. What is the maximum number of worksheets that Excel can hide within a workbook? I have a macro which hides all worksheets with the exception of the active worksheet and it has never failed. But this morning I had started working on a workbook containing many sheets and when I ran my HideSheets macro a maximum of 14 sheets hides every time. Is it my code (see below)?

I want to limit the access to the information through a userform but my userform requires me to unhide the userform to show. Is there a way to go around this? Because the information might be misused if the user can simply close the form and have access to the information in the sheet.
I have spreadsheet with 13 sheets the first of which is a title page, what I wish to do is hide the other twelve sheets and somehow be able to select them from a drop down box (or similar what ever works with a macro)on the front page, the selected sheets would then appear unhidden.
I am OK with formulas etc but macros are beyond my ability even trying to follow examples & tutorials online has me lost.
The sheets all have specific but different names and none need to be selected more than once (although if possible it would be good). I understand where to put the macro in but as to how it is written ......
I downloaded a cool add-in from XL-Logic that lets you select sheets to print. It's great, except that I need to print very hidden sheets and it does not display very hidden sheets.

I've tried to play with it, but I don't know enough about VB....
View 9 Replies View RelatedRegarding the age old problem of trying to ensure macros are enabled in a workbook, using the process of hiding all sheets bar one:
Automatically Close Workbook If Macros Are Disabled
Reafid inserts some excellent code so that worksheets are hidden BOTH before closing AND on a normal Save event (I have also attached Reafid's zip file with the workbook that includes his/her code).
Having done much searching it seems to be the best solution out there, however I can still break it fairly easily and I'm worndering if anybody can stop me doing the following to break it:
Open the file in its restricted state (i.e. only Warning tab shown, all other sheets very hidden) and NOT enabling macros on opening. I'm therefore at the position Reafid intended; macros are disabled so all sheets are very hidden. Then to break it, in my personal macro workbook I have a simple macro that unhides all worksheets in ThisWorkbook, I run that personal macro and everything in Reafid's file is unhidden.
Reafid's file therefore has been opened with macros DISABLED and now all worksheets are visible.
I have written some code to be executed in Sheet1 which copies formats from Sheet1 to Sheet2 and then values from Sheet 3
Sheets("Sheet1"). Range("E4:M9").Copy Sheets("Sheet2").Range ("A1").Offset(9 * i + 3, 1)
Sheets("Sheet3").Range("P90:W93").Copy _
Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1").Offset(9 * i + 5, 2).PasteSpecial _ Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
The code does exactly what I want it to do, but when Sheets 2 and 3 are hidden images of what is being pasted briefly flash up on the screen. Is there a way of avoiding this? The amount of data in the whole sheet is quite large (about 4MB), could it just be that the program is running too slowly?
I am using some VBA I found here to password protect a hidden sheet. It works perfectly for 1 sheet, but I am trying to hide 6 but am having problems. Under the HideSheets part I've modified it fine, by using
Sub HideSheets()
'Set worksheet to Very Hidden so that it can only be unhidden by a macro
Worksheets("Confidential1").Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden
Worksheets("Confidential2").Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden
Worksheets("Confidential3").Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden
End Sub.........
I was playing with some codes on hiding and unhiding the sheets and then I tried this code to hide a sheet but then I decided to delete the code and the module after. The problem now is I can't unhide the sheet. Even the Insert/Rename/Delete sheet option when I right click it are all disabled.
VB:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Sheet2.Visible = xlSheetVeryHidden
Me.Protect ("password")
End Sub
OR can I? I get a "Run Time Error '1004' Select Method of Worksheet Class Failed"
Is there anyway around this?
Basically all the sheets are hidden from the user except for the Entry sheet. They input there data on there and then they press a send command button which then needs to copy that information to a hidden sheet. This is where the problem occurs.. Thought maybe their was a way around that or do I need to unhide the sheets during the macro and then rehide them again?
