View 1 Repliesbeen checking out 1/2 a second wait instead of a 1 sec wait
and would like to know it you can do this
timer thing
Dim x As Single
x = Timer
While Timer - x < 0.5
Wend
more than once
it works the first time and then it sort of skips it
or is there ANOTHER way of having a delay of less than a second?
Below is the code I currently have implemented. The first line of code creates a .csv file. The third line of code opens that file. I couldn't put the third line right after the first because it would try to open the file before it was finished being created. Hence, the second line which waits for 5 seconds. Is there a way, either in the CMD or VBA, that I can have it wait until the first line of code has completed?
VB:
Shell "cmd.exe /c M:" & "&& cd DesktopExcel Project" & Command
Application.Wait Time + TimeSerial(0, 0, 5)
Workbooks.Open("M:DesktopExcel ProjectInfo.csv")
I want to insert a command button and assign a macro, I have the developers toolbar available with the controls section and on all other spreadsheets i can then select insert and choose the required button, however on the particular workbook i want to use the insert button is greyed out and not available.
i already use macros in this workbook and they work fine from keyboard shortcuts but i would like to make one of them run from a command button
Is there a simple setting somewhere which i may have turned off inadvertently previously or could the problem have anything to do with the macros themselves?
it state "Use the subtotals command to sum the totals for each sales person) *Hint: convert the list to a normal range before calculating the subtotals.
I highlight Sales person and click Date but subtotals key is not showing up. i have attach the file its in the Subtotals worksheet.
Using excel 2003. Cannot insert command button on a spreadsheet we have. Almost all icons in the control toolbox are unavailable when Im on this specific spreadsheet. Any new documents I open work fine. Is there some kind of protected spreadsheet that wouldnt allow for a button, picture, textbox label to be inserted???
I didnt make the original sheet but am just editing and improving it.
I would really appreciate any advice you could give, I have attempted to attach a jpg showing the greyed out icons in my controltool box

My husband sent me this program in Excel where you type in your birthdate and not only does it give you your age to the millisecond, but it also gives you a list of traits the person has. For example, I was born on November 20, 1987 and this popped up:
Age in years 19.61
Age in months 235
Age in days 7157
Age in hours 171760
Age in minutes 10305599
Age in seconds 618335921
Age in Milli seconds 61833592095
Age in weeks 50097
You born on Friday
I have a cell that has data formatted in this style:
0:00:08:412
h:mm:ss:ms
I was wondering how I might go about writing a formula that would subtract say 2 seconds, or 400ms from that value.
the data is as follows:
Data ABC1Timestampname 21/31/2012 11:07:13abc931/31/2012 11:07:50def 41/31/2012 11:10:03a 51/31/2012 11:17:12b 61/31/2012 11:17:14a 71/31/2012 11:17:15a 81/31/2012 11:17:16a 91/31/2012 12:39:41cv 101/31/2012 13:04:00k 112/1/2012 7:26:53k 122/1/2012 7:26:56dg 132/1/2012 7:41:05Gw 142/1/2012 8:01:19cg 152/1/2012 9:32:14CB 162/1/2012 9:32:15CB 172/1/2012 9:32:15CB 182/1/2012 9:32:17CB 192/1/2012 9:32:26kw 202/1/2012 10:24:54jw Spreadsheet FormulasCellFormulaC2=SUMPRODUCT(--(MONTH(A2:A20)=1)*(YEAR(A2:A20)=2012))
if you see the cell a6 to a8 happened in millisecond same person has punched i want to count it as one only
I have done a measurement with the labview programm and I have saved it in a txt file, but I need to open it with excel to finish my work. When I open it with excel the time column shows the time that each measurement was taken, like the time in a digital clock. I need to change that form to appear the time between 2 measurements (Δt) in milliseconds (which of course has to be the same Δt every time). I've been told that I can change that, but I don't know how...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI set the time format to hh:mm:ss.000 to show also the milliseconds.
How can I get the milliseconds to another cell for making some calculations?
If the time is not less than 0.001 seconds, then multiply it by 1000, and express it in milliseconds. Otherwise: If the time is not less than 0.000001 seconds, then multiply it by 1000000, and express it in microseconds. Otherwise: multiply it by 1000000000, and express it in nanoseconds and this all has to go in a chart like this one. I was wondering what the code would be to get this
Sub MAcro3()
Function secnum(seconds)
If seconds > 0 Then
secnum = seconds
Else
Milliseconds = seconds / 1000
If Milliseconds > 0.001 Then
Value (Substitute(0.001, 0.001 * 1000))
secnum = Milliseconds
Else
Microseconds = seconds / 1000000
If Microseconds > 0.000001 Then .............
My challenge is discovering the difference in time between two rows of data that is imported with milliseconds in the time slot. In my example below I would like to see how I can subtract the time listed in line 4 from line 3 (11:18:59.566 - 11:18:59.550). When I try now I get either 1.85185E-07 or 00:00.0 or 0.000000 depending how the cell is formatted.

I am using a VBA macro (Using mouse clicks as inputs for neuroscience experiment?).
What the macro does is it inputs a timestamp every time a keyboard combination is used (alt+right arrow in this case).
The part of the macro which inputs the timestamp is like this:
Sub AltRight_Sub()
On Error Resume Next
Cancel = True
Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Offset(1) = Format(Now, "HH:MM:SS")
End Sub
I would like the timestamp to be displayed as HH:MM:SS.00, i.e. show the milliseconds. I tried playing around with the timestamp format (changing it to = Format(Now, "HH:MM:SS.00" or = Format(Now, "HH:MM:SS.0;@")) or = Format(Now, "MM:SS.000") and I tried using = Evaluate("=NOW()") instead of = Format(Now, "HH:MM:SS".
I have 2 fields formatted like this:
1) Date: "30/10/2013"
2) Time: "10:56:39:000"
I need it to read/merge into: "30/10/2013 10:56:39:000" and then be able to be able to be converted intp seconds as a UTC Unix epoch example formula =(A1-25569)*86400.
What I am trying to do is have a macro that do a comparison between 2 cells every 100 milliseconds. One of the cell is constant updating from RTD (Real Time Data). And if its false, to nothing. However if true, I would want it to run some codes and exit the macro/procedure. I also need some way of stopping the macro at any time.

Step 1: Check if a chart is Selected
Step 2: If yes, run the macro
Step 3: If no, prompt the user with a msgbox of Retry/Cancel.
Step 4: If the user selects Retry, wait till he makes a selection.
Step 5: If the selection is a chart, run the macro. If the selection is not a chart prompt the same msgbox again and keep looping it till he selects a chart.

I have a very long code with multiple functions and operations i.e. it calculate many fields. The normal running time varies from 2 minutes to 30 minutes depending on the data size.
Can any one tell me a way so that I can put a kind of status bar to show the progress or estimated time left? Basically, during operation it looks like excel is hanged and not responding but infact its not.
What is the simplest way to display a "Please Wait.." message during the execution of a macro.
Tried the WshShell.Popup but did not work.
how do I code in vba for it to wait until the user has checked the file that has been made make a few amendments and then when done one would click OK or resume for the program to carry on with the rest of the code.

If I run this in editor with F8, stepping through the code, it does work.
I can only guess that enough time is passing during the F8 presses that the page can load. But is that not the purpose of adding the wait code?

I've a userform style progress bar which stops updating if i use application.wait within my code like this:
UserForm1.FrameProgress.Caption = "0%"
UserForm1.Label1.Caption = "Starting Process.."
UserForm1.LabelProgress.Width = 0
UserForm1.OkButton.Visible = False
DoEvents
Application.Wait (Now() + TimeValue("0:00:01"))
I'm using a pre-made spreadsheet from my stock broker (Interactive Brokers) that retrieves and displays real-time quotes, and allows one to retrieve historical stock data, among other things. I've created a little macro within it to try and automate some common tasks I do everyday - basically I want to retrieve a year of daily stock quotes for "stock 1" from IB's servers, then have the macro wait for the retrieval to be done and written to the spreadsheet (takes anywhere between 10 and 30 secs). After that's all done, then I want to do the same for "stock 2". Then when that's done, the macro proceeds to go ahead and do some calcs on stock1 and stock2. The problem is after my stock1 data request, the macro just keep on trucking through to the next commands while stock1's data retrival is still going on.
so things are getting all balled up. How can I get my macro to wait until stock1's data retrieval is all done?
My question is if it's possible to change the code and make it work faster. When I change the ComboBox I wait about 1-3 seconds for about 40 items in the Worksheet. I still didn't test it with more items. Here's the
Private Sub ComboBox1P2_Change()
If ComboBox1P2.ListIndex = 0 Then
ComboBox2P2.Style = fmStyleDropDownCombo
ComboBox2P2.Value = sign
ComboBox2P2.Enabled = False
ComboBox3P2.Clear
ComboBox3P2.Enabled = False
ComboBox1P2.SetFocus
ElseIf ComboBox1P2.ListIndex 0 And ComboBox1P2.ListIndex -1 Then
ComboBox2P2.Style = fmStyleDropDownList
ComboBox2P2.Enabled = True...........
I have a workbook with alot of results that employees will need to wait for results to show.
While it Calculates.. can we get a cell to show "Please Wait - Searching" so they know its actually doing something for them?
When clicking the button on my userform, it goes through a quite complex process of changing the views in several pivot tables that are linked to an "report" sheet, which has all the figures the user needs in a neat format.
Changing these pivot tables takes up to a minute, so I wanted a userform, called "frmwait", to pop when clicking the command button. It would say "Generating Your Report - Please Wait". At the same time, the initial userform, which is called "frmroutedashboard", would be hidden.
This does not happen - the "frmwait" userform shows, however the "frmroutedashboard" does not hide.
Is this because the code I composed uses the values on the "frmroutedashboard" to generate the view, and it cannot hide until the report is completed? If so, there must be a way around this. Anyone know how?
The initial code so far looks like this:
frmroutedashboard.hide
Application.Cursor = xlWait
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayStatusBar = True
Application.StatusBar = "Updating Route Dashboard..."
I thought if it looked like this, it would be sufficient. Unfortunately, the file is too large to attach, so I hope the code suffices.
frmroutedashboard.hide
frmwait.show
Application.Cursor = xlWait
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayStatusBar = True
Application.StatusBar = "Updating Route Dashboard..."
