AutoSave Only When Opened
Jun 21, 2013I have macro enabled workbooks that the contract number increases by one everytime they are opened. Is there a way to make it auto save though when its opened. Right now I have to click save as soon as I open it. If I do not do this when I open it, when I open it again the contract number will stay the same as it was, because I save it at the end after I put all customer info in.

VBA Code Stops - When WB Is Opened By Another WB
Nov 4, 2009I have 3 Work books - one (WB1) checks its version number against an online record and if they dont match it opens WB2 which then proceeds to download the updated version copy information from WB1 to its self which it then pastes into WB3
WB1 then gets deleted and WB3 Renamed to the old name of WB1

Re-opened: Determining Thresholds
Jun 3, 2009 There are a lot of worksheets with a lot of similar data from which I have to determine the threshold. So if possible I would like to create a macro.
I want to know the threshold value when Y=2.
The threshold can be between different Input Values (=Stimulus Intensity (ľA)).
For example: the threshold of amp P2-N1 & P3-N3 lies somewhere between 200 and 252ľA. The threshold of P1-N1 lies somewhere between 318 and 400ľA.
Is it possible to determine the threshold value with a formula?

Determine If A Template (.xlt) Has Been Opened
Mar 3, 2007i'm trying to find out how i can determine if a template (.xlt) has been opened.. the name of the file generated is dynamic, and increments by 1 for each open count. this limits me from using an isWorkBookOpen() function, since i do not know the name, and my project does not allow me to save the file file before hand..
my thought was to set the .name value to the workbook object holding the template.. and then check to see if a workbook with that name is open.. but alas.. .name is readonly
how can i check to see if the template file is already open?

Working On File Opened With GetOpenFile (VBA)
Jan 23, 2013 the small code i'm writing just needs to do the following:
1. open an .xslx file selected by the user
2. copy 2 worksheets from that file to the current one
3. close the selected file without saving it.
This is my code:
VB:
Sub GetData()
MsgBox ("Please select a file"), vbOKOnly
Master = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="Excel Files (*.xlsx), *.xlsx", Title:="Please select a file")
[Code]....
Opening the file works, but the last 3 lines don't because i don't understand how to declare "Master": however i dim it (workbook, object, variant...) i get an error on the GetOpenFilename line. If i don't declare it, i get an error while trying to copy the worksheets.
CountIf - Automatically Update Once Opened
Oct 18, 2008I have made a league table which pulls data from another table - in this example. The actual one i am using pulls data from a different workbook. Any way...In one of my columns i am using the countif formula to count how may times an advisor's name appears. Eg - =COUNTIF(A:A,"Sally A").
Is there another formula i can use to carry out this function. The reason i am asking this is there are multiple links in my league table to the other workbook. Once i open my league table all the data is updated - as the other workbook data is changed. However, for this to work i need to open up the other workbook where the data is , otherwise i will get the VALUE# error. I do not want to open the other workbook just to pull the data over, i need this league to automatically update once opened.
