Im trying to come up with a Macro that will perform a =SUM() function across multiple workbooks. Some of these workbooks may exist, some may not.
For example, Summary.xls has a =sum() formula that picks up data from wbk1.xls wbk2.xls wbk3.xls etc, all the way to 100
Today i only have wbk 1, 2 and 3 but i know everyday more wbk's are added so i want to create a sum type function to accomodate the sbk's that may be created at a future time.
Right now when i try it, I not only get REF/# but on opening Summary.xls I get a popup that asks me to define the missing wbk's
I have the following code which saves a certain sheet to a new workbook and then emails it to a range of cells. The directory the file is saved in is from a cell, and changes depending on certain cells in the workbook. I would like to make it so if the folder it is saving to does not exist, it will create it. If this isn't possible with this set up, I would just like it to display an error message if the folder is not present.
VB: Sub Save_Report() Dim wbName As String Sheets("TELELINK & ITINERARY FORM").Copy
From the keyboard, if you select a chart with data labels, right click the data labels then "reset the data lables to match style", it works fine; but there appears not to be a programmatic equivalent to accomplishing this same task... at least the macro recorder does not shed any light on the subject. Is there code available to do the same thing?
We have recently converted to Office 2010 from 2007 I have now got a name conflict with some macros on my templates
I have some code which will open up the affected templates delete the required modules & import the amended modules, this is working OK.
I now have to re assign the new macro to each button on all pages on all my templates., I started of by recording the actions to achieve this (see part of the code), but unfortunately the recorded code will not work, it runs but when I test the buttons I get the message that "this macro does not exist in this work book".
"Run-time error '1004': "cmc4906.xls" File cannot be found. Check the spelling of the file name and verify that the file location is correct."
I am not trying to open a xls file. The path is clear and there are no file names with extensions in the path name (C:Weekly). I'm unclear of why the code thinks its looking for file cmc4906.xls and a xls file at that.
In Excel 2010, is there any way to paste a picture into a small picture/diagram box, and upon double clicking the picture it would explode to a larger size? And I guess double clicking it again would make it return to its original (smaller) size. I would be pasting several pictures into several different picture/diagram boxes and would need this to be a relative reference so that upon selection it explodes the appropriate picture?
I want to have a sample file in excel which store picture of student in comment, I did this, but when I want to insert picture the file dialog appears, and if I click cancel, then there is an error, why? If some one optimise the code it would be very nice
I copied this from another post and am having trouble getting it to work for me. I want to be able to run this macro, find a picture on my computer which could be located anywhere and then have it paste in specific cells.
Whenever I run this it lets me find the picture I want and when I select it I get error message that says "compile error" Syntax Error". It then does not put the picture on the sheet.
I tried to zip and attach the work sheet multiple times but keep getting error message and won't let me attach......"forum excel database has encountered a problem" ....
A macro, which would allow me to click on a particular cell, which will have an ID number (1 through 34), each ID# is attributed to a particular employee. These ID# are located in my spreadsheet in columns B & G, and the ID #'s begin initially in B6 & G6 and continue downward to B34 & G34. These ID #'s are used in a vlookup type formula which covers 35 pages of this workbook. What I'd like to do is be able to click on any cell between B6& B34 (and/or the same in G6&G34), which has a particular ID # in it and have the photo of that particular employee designated with that ID# pop up in a window generated by the macro. I hope this makes sense! Any help would be greatly appreciated. My 1st sheet in my workbook is my "lookup" tab, which contains my ID# list and numbering sequence affiliated to each employee. So I'm not sure if I'd need to put the photograph of the employee in a column next to the employees name or have a folder designated with all my pictures in a certain directory, etc.
I'm watching an educational D V D on my computer, and take notes in excel. I repeatedly use the print screen command, then go to excel and paste in the picture, though it is too large. I resize it to 50% and I'm done. What kind of code do I need to use to paste and shrink the picture to 50%? Also, how do I attach a shortcut key to this action (for example Ctrl+M)
I have done the above where when I select a picture name from a drop down list it displays the relevant picture in another cell by using the IF function in the named formula
My question is why cant I use VLOOKUP instead of IF in the named formula. When I use it it comes with an error.
I have a picture that has been inserted into a worksheet via a macro and I have a number of macros to increase and decrease size. They work fine.
However, whenever I run one of those macros by selecting a button on the worksheet, it results in a border around the picture.
Facts: - worksheet is called "Admin" - picture is called "ClientLogo" - Line.Weight set to "0" or "False" or "xlNone" or removed all result in a border
Question: Code / syntax for removing or setting the border to nothing?
VB:
Sub ReduceShape() Dim shp As ShapeRange On Error Goto NoSelectionMade Sheets("Admin").Shapes("ClientLogo").Select Set shp = Selection.ShapeRange
The following macro enables be to insert picture from a given location. My query is I want to insert the picture name once the pictures are inserted in the excel worksheet.
My macro generates some graph from some datas. Datas are in some range and when I filtering it shows only filtered values. I use Fixed axis (min and max) because if I use Auto it fit data to the window.
My problem is: I would like to use Auto axis because my layout would be better but bacground picture remains the same and it's useless. Background picture should change as I change filters.
example:
untitled.JPG here is picture: current situation is 1.
With Auto axis I get 2. (blue B and green D are filtered results)
And I would like to have 3.
Is it possible that background picture variate as datas variates?
macro which can show a picture of a certain cell and if I change the value of that cell the picture will be changed to the new cell value,
Like
If I put in cell A1 value DOG, so the pic in cell B1 is a dog pic that I defined before, and if I change that value to a cat, the pic should be changed to another pic.
I'm working on a dashboard that shows some market developments. One of the problems is that I'm using linked pictures and a combo box to choose the appropriate graph, but sometimes the picture link returns a blank. Apparently this is a bug that can be fixed by running a macro that refreshes the picture link. Unfortunately I'm a real beginner with this kind of stuff.
Basically, I am curious if I were to insert a value into say cell A1, is there any way B1 could display a picture I've saved. To be a bit more specific, A1's value would be 777, and B1's inserted picture would be 777.png saved on my PC. This would need to apply for the whole of the sheet for all the values in column A.
I have a sheet made into a form with some check boxes included. If I select all the relevant columns, create a new sheet, and paste into cell A1 - all of the information carries over just fine. You can still select cells and check the boxes in the new sheet.
However, when I record this action as a macro, using the macro produces a picture of the selected columns instead of actually copy/pasting the information. I can't click on the cells or check boxes. I can only move the picture around within the new sheet.
I just upgraded to Excel 2007 and my macro from Excel 2003 for inserting a picture doesn't work correctly in 2007. I have a command button that states insert picture and when you click it, it will let you insert a picture into the cell and hide the command button. In 2007 it will let you insert the picture, but it isn't centered and expands into other cells and the command button is still visible. The picture appears to be the correct size it just doesn't center itself in the cell and the command button is still visible. Below is the
i have saved some pictures in my excel sheet. in the next sheet i want that when i write the picture name the picture will appear as vlookup helps in the getting text and nos. can i do this with pictures or i tried to get to much from excel.
Trying to create a macro to run through the following steps when I select a chart and run the macro:
Paste>As Picture>Copy As Picture>As Shown When Printed>OK
I used the macro record feature and when I enter the shortcut it always returns the same chart. How do I get it to run on whatever chart I have selected instead?
I am constantly using this function to copy charts from Excel into PowerPoint presentations and am frustrated with all the extra steps it takes (versus just Ctrl-C).
I am a complete newbie with the camera tool. Is there any way to make the camera tool dynamic so that the cells the tool is referencing can change upon the click of a button or some other form of switch? I am creating my first dashboard and this is the last step for my report to be completely dynamic.
----------------------------------------------------------------------- Never mind, I apologize i just figured this one out...
Create a user defined formulaIn the UDF Create an if statementThe if statement's condition is the logistics in the shift mechanismThe value if true is the first group of cells you want in the snap shotThe value if false is the second group of cells you want in the snap shot, The range you want to toggle betweenRename the cell reference of any snap shot you have taken with the UDF name. In my example my UDF is "Dude" so when you select the camera tool it shows =Dude as the cell referenceReference a scroll bar to the conditional cell you selected in the if statement or choose statement. This is the shift mechanism
If you want to toggle between more than 2 sets of data use =Choose instead of =if
I am putting together a price list in excel and using images and hyperlinks to jazz it up a bit - what I am finding is that if I insert a 25KB GIF image, the excel file grows in size by over 100KB
why is this disproportionate growth happening and is there a way around it - I dont want my Price List growing too large but need the images....?
