When I Copy My Excel Document I Find This:
In My New Document The Custom Toolbar Is Likning The Functions (macros) To My Old Workbook In My Other ( The One I Copied From) Document.
Can I Make The File Path Of The Macros Change With The File Path Of The Document.
Or Embed The Macros To The Sheet
I have a little trouble with my macros. I wrote several different macros, each for a special purpose. Then I created some Buttons, which would make it easy for others to work with them.
But I have now experienced several times, that my buttons don't keep their assigned macro.
I have made several Shapes and assigned macros to them, all is good.
What i am curious about: is it possible to highlight or change colour of the shape on press and return to normal if another is shape is pressed? Just anything to make that particular shape stand out that it has been selected then return to normal when another shape has been selected...
[Code] ....
That is the code so far that is attached to 1x shape...
I noticed that my custom "Close without Saving" button stopped working. I checked the VBA editor and my Personal workbook was missing and all of my personal macros were gone. I restarted excel, same issue. Rebooted my machine and they re-appeared. Not sure how what happened, but at least the Personal workbook was not lost. I'm working off my company's network, so often I get the "Personal Workbook is locked for editing" message. I usually select the open as read-only file and go about my merry way. Perhaps I clicked something different on accident without paying attention.
Anyway, I digress, the custom macro button that I had in my ribbon still didn't work, so I removed it and tried again in both the ribbon and the quick access toolbar with no success. The Macro executes if I execute it manually or via the keyboard shortcut, but the ribbon/quick access toolbar buttons won't work. Frustrating, because I use this quite often. I've even tried writing a quick "dummy" macro to see if it was some sort of code error related to the macro, but got the same result. My "Close without saving" code is below (super basic code).
Sub Close_Without_Saving()'' Close_Without_Saving Macro' Closes active workbook without saving changes.'' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+q' ActiveWorkbook.Close (False)End Sub
I have created a toolbar with buttons that run macros. When the macro is assigned to that button the macro will run fine. However, when the file name of the excel workbook has changed (file relocated or name changed) then the macro (button in the toolbar) does not work and has to re-assigned in the toolbar. Is there anyway of getting around the problem of having to reassign the macro to the toolbar button whenever the file name/directory changes.
View 5 Replies View RelatedA couple years ago i made a giant spreadsheet and had 2 custom toolbars to run macros from to manipulate the sheet.
This year i re-did the sheet, meaning all my old data was replaced (it's a giant schedule basically).
However, the Macros in the custom toolbars stayed exactly the same and performed the same function and are directed to the exact same cells, rows, columns, etc..
But now when i hit the buttons on the custom toolbars to run my macros, i get the following message... all the time...

A document with the name "NHLsheet.xls" is already open. You cannot open two documents
with the same name, even if the documents are in different folders.
To open the second document, either close the document that's currently open, or rename one of the documents.
**
Trouble is, i have only 1 document open!
There's something in the macros that thinks i'm trying to open a new document but i'm clueless as to where or why.. they are very simple macros
that do not require the opening of any new workbooks..
All they do is point to another sheet within my open workbook, "NHLsheet", copy a particular row from that sheet, and paste it to a specific spot onto another sheet within my workbook, "NHLsheet".
Here is a sample:
I am an average user of excel and i am wanting some help with macros. I can record macros, that i do understand. Its the part where you can assign the macros to the Checkbox i have created.
The effect i am trying to create is that when the checkbox has a tick in it, certain properties happen to a cell. But when the checkbox has no tick in it something else happens to the cell. I have recorded 2 macros for what i want to happen its just getting it associated with the true/false of the checkbox.
I have no Visual Basic Experience and i have tried reading other posts, but the code just goes right over my head at the moment. Thanks in advance for anyhelp. I can attach the spreadsheet etc...
I have a spreadsheet that I have a lot of macros that are attached to a customized toolbar saved in the same spreadsheet. I saved this is a read-only file. When I open as read-only and run my macros (testing), I save it as another file. When I then open the "template" to do the same thing, the toolbar/buttons now reference the file I previously saved as something else. Help please? Is there a macro that would delete all macros before saving the file as something else?

For those wondering, both toolbars contain some apparently similar controls, e.g., combo box, radio button, spinner etc. but there are differences in their behaviour it would seem...

I was just trying to work around a problem with multiple UserForms in project. I have assigned Object variables oUserForm1 and oUserForm2 to represent UserForms of specific names.
VB:
Dim oUserForm1 As Object
Dim oUserForm2 As Object
Set oUserForm1 = VBA.UserForms.Add("Data" & CStr(X))
oUserForm1.Y = Y
[Code] .....
When oUserForm1 shows new data are inserted and another macro runs with a line to hide the opened UserForm.
In my project manager this user form name is i.e. Data1 (for x = 1), but the syntax Data1.Hide returns error. After that line it ask me to close the TOP most modal UserForm.
But When I use Me.Hide all works well.
My question is: Does VBA not see the name of the userform ("Data1") because I have used the oUserForm1 variable to give it a focus to it?
Lets say I have 20 cells. I want to randomly assign a label to the each cell from 5 choices, like "Blue", "Orange", "White", "Green", and "Black". But I want to assign a probability of selecting the labels. So the percent probability of choosing Blue would be 56% and White would be 23%, etc. . . is there a function that allows me to do this?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a formatting macro that I recorded, nothing fancy just bringing in a few different spreasheets, and formatting them. I made this for someone who really doesn't know excel.
I linked this button to the macro and it works great, except at the bottom of the code I would like to put something that when this has run, it hides the button, so it can't be run again.
I accidently assigned a macro to an object. When right-clicking on the object, I am only able to "Assign Macro...", how do I remove it?
View 6 Replies View RelatedWhat I'm trying to do is use a variable NumberOfRows (which is defined as an integer) in this following code, but the problem I get is that the NumberOfRows isn't being inserted.
Let's assume that NumberOfRows = 15.
What I would expect to be in cell B1 is =sum(H5:H15), but what is getting placed there is =sum(H5:HNumberOfRows) which of course doesn't give me anything. I'm sure this is an easy syntax thing, but I just can't seem to get the right combination.
Range("B1").Formula = "=Sum(H5:H&NumberOfRows)"

I have a spreadsheet with about 30 items in 30 rows. I have a picture object which corresponds to the item # and other info in each row. When I sort the rows, the picture objects don't get sorted with the rows and end up no longer corresponding with the item # and other info.
I have right clicked and set the properties for each picture object to "move and size with cells". This does not prevent the problem.
I am making a system that warns me when the Monthly, Bimonthly, and Quarterly appointments are due based on calculating the "Last Serviced" date. The problem is that when I sort the data (usually by company name or by service type) it scrambles up the color coding and places the assigned conditional formatting rules in the wrong places. How can I keep the conditional formatting attached to their respective companies and row (and still be able to sort without scrambling).

I have a list of product numbers and product prices (table 1).
I have a list of those (old) product numbers becoming new ones (table 2).
BUT some of those products have been merged together so multiple old product numbers have become one new one.
Now I have a list of the new product numbers and I want to calculate the price of the new product by adding up the price of the old products.

I am trying to filter a list where the number of occurences of unique cost codes for each emp No is more than 1. What is needed is the emp no's who have only one costcode to have '0' in the 'no of codes' column. If more costcodes per empno, I need the first costcode to have 1, second code 2, etc in 'no of codes' column. The idea is at the end to be able to filter and delete all those with '0' in, as I only need to work with emp no's that have more than 1 'cost code'. See attached file. The records are in col A, the costcodes assigned to them in B, the formula in C, at the moment is:
=IF(AND( COUNTIF($A$1:A2,A2)>1, COUNTIF(B1:B2,B2)>1),C1, IF(AND(COUNTIF($A$1:A2,A2)>1, COUNTIF(B1:B2,B2)<2),(C1+1),1))
I created an object using multiple smaller objects (shapes, text etc,) and grouped them to make an icon. I assigned a macro to the finished object. It works fine when the sheet is unprotected. However, when the sheet is protected, the macro will run only when certain parts of the object are clicked. The standard cursor turns into the "hand" when any part of the object is touched regardless of the protection status.

Is it possible to dynamically add a button or similar to each row that would copy the lookup results of that row to a separate quote form?
how can I predefine the function of the button?
I have an Excel 2003 program that contains macros. One of the macros hides certain command bars and disables the worksheet menu bar. On close the opposite is true. The problem is, if a user uses the disable macros when opening then the worksheet menu bar and other command bars are still available. I would like to hide all of the data sheets and display another sheet that would normally be hidden displaying a message that the macros have to be enabled for the program to work correctly if disable macros is chosen. When the enable macros are used I would like the Error page to be hidden.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm working on a sheet I have to complete and I'm blocked 'cause I'm not able to find the right formula to get the result I need.
I have a sheet that contains 4 columns with the following content (consider the following just as an example. The real sheet contains more that 25,000 rows.
User ID Repository 1 Repository 2 Repository 3
001FG x
001FG x
10GA x
20PK x
20PK x
20PK x
21CC x
4C1D x
Now, the table contains the user id (unique ID) and three columns that stand for the access right the user has for accessing a specific repository.
This means that a User can have more than one occurrence in the sheet because it could have rights to access different repository (i.e. the user 20PK can access all the repository).
What I should be able to do is to transform the table above to a new one with unique user id and the rights for each repository. I would need something like this:
User ID Repository 1 Repository 2 Repository 3
001FG x x
10GA x
20PK x x x
21CC x
4C1D x
How can I do this by using a formula and not a macro?
I am creating a series of charts that all include a text box containing "(N=[value])", with different values in each instance, but with each N value listed as a total frequency in each table. I am creating hundreds of these, so if there is a way to automatically pull the correct N value from a cell into the text box, it would make this faster. I have written simple functions in excel tables but have no experience with VBA/macros.

So I have a sheet with a lot of formulas and form control buttons that have been assigned macros.
When I go to protect certain cells and lock them and the activate sheet protection, suddenly my form control buttons with the assigned macros don't work.
I still need to protect some cells with formulas and don't want to leave the whole worksheet unprotected, but in order to allow the form control button macros to run, it appears that's what I have to do....or, is there another way to do this?
I am using the following formula to calculate due dates based on the rank i assign an issue.
Note: a similar formula is used for the due date of section one, but if it is not complete, i do not want this formula to kick in a determine the due date for section 2.
