Implementing A Stopwatch

Jun 2, 2003

I need to be able to make an accurate stopwatch in Excel, I want to be able to time a load of Ice Hockey players doing sprints using a laptop on the ice. Excel is perfect cos I can then have a list of players, and just click the button next to the name for them to start..then stop the time. and the Dt is there loaded.

My ultimate goal would be to then modify the code and have have a hardware circuit connected to the parallel port so that the timing could be donw with an external circuit triggering the stopwatch. I'm lookinf for something accurate to hundredths of a second.

Is this possible with Excel and VBA?

Stopwatch- Activities

Feb 2, 2005

I tried out yjoshi's stopwatch, but when I open the stop watch (file was attached in that thread) it is not possible to work with other docs in Excel, and I also have trouble locating the VB code for the actons.

Therefore I am wondering if anyone have any solution on how to get the following:
I was thinking of a button in cell A1 named "Start", when clicked on start time ( date and time) will be inserted in first available column A.

Cell B1 contains a button called "Stop", clicked on will put time in column B and move the marker to cell Dx (x, being row number of the latest stop time.

Why D and not C? In column C I was thinking of a formula calculating the time and in column D I will fill in a short explanation what I did during the time.

How To Make Stopwatch Run Continuously?

Jul 31, 2009

I'm looking to have my stopwatch run continuously until "and only until" a command button ("Stop") is clicked. I already have a code and stopwatch in place. I have 5 command buttons: start (starts the timer), call (activates/hyperlinks to another sheet where I have more command buttons and data entry needed/), stop (stops the timer), reset (resets the timer), and record (stamps the elapsed time on the sheet1).

They work great BUT the problem is, when the cell is touched (i.e. when you type a character or double click on any cell even if it's on a different sheet, or even on a different workbook) the timer stops!

I'd think that all this would require just a simple string/line inserted in my code. I'm really, really new to VBA and doesn't know how to write my own codes yet. I have to google what I need every time and do trial and error! Just to give you more info-- I'm using this for a call simulation program, in which the user is an operator taking in a call. She would have to be aware of how much time have passed after performing some actions/data entry on the different sheets on the workbook. I hope I've explained it enough. :D Anyway's here's the code I got, which I think needs just a few edits.

Timer - Stopwatch Function

Aug 28, 2007

Declaring Variables And Implementing Into URL

Jul 17, 2014

I'm having trouble creating a macro that will look at a single URL, and based on what text is in a cell, replace that name and put it into a specific location in the URL. Then the URL will open and the rest is a macro I've written already. This will then be done as many times as need as long as there is text in the column.

So I'm looking to declare the text in these cells as different variables, then have something call these variables into a specific location in a URL, then have that URL (which is a worksheet location) open up. This is because I have many URL worksheet locations on an external website, I'd like for my macro to look at the cells in column A, check "A2" and whatever that name is, and have it placed into the URL. I assume some type of loop would be useful, since I do not want them to open up all at once, but one by one based on the text or variable in the column. Then the URL will open.

Then I can run my macro code which will include copying and pasting, closing and saving. Then go the next cell, check "A3" then repeat the process. The URL for all the worksheets are all the same, except for one specifc name, which is what im looking to replace one by one.

Implementing A Row Which Finds Rows Which Match It

Feb 1, 2008

I'm looking to have a row at the top of a worksheet which I can type in, so that only the rows below which contain that information will show up. For example, say I have the following 3 rows, 2 columns each:

Cat Feet
Cat Head
Dog Feet

I'd like to have an additional row so that if I typed in "Cat" only the "Cat Feet" and "Cat Head" rows would show up. Likewise, if I typed in "Head" in the proper column only ""Cat Head" would show up.

Find & Replace Dialog Box - Error Msg When Implementing

Jul 28, 2008

I have the following code in a macro to open up a find dialog box, but it does not seem to work. I am getting the following message when I try to find something:

Microsoft Office Excel cannot find any data to replace. Check if your search formatting and criteria are defined correctly. If you are sure that matching data exist in this workbook, it may be on a protected sheet. Excel cannot replace data on a protected sheet.

I checked the data I am trying to find and replace and it is correct.
