I have is a spreadsheet for maintenance on various equipment around my work site. I have the cells that contain the dates of the last maintenance performed conditionally formatted that when it reaches 2 months time after that work, they will turn yellow and alert me that it is time to perform that maintenance again. What i would like to have is a seperate sheet in the workbook that is nothing but "Work Orders", in other words once the cell turns yellow, it will also appear on the seperate sheet. Then I could print that "Work Order" sheet that would only have the certain piece of equipment that needs to be maintained on it, where as the main sheet will have all my equipment. I dont know if i need a formula for this, if so then I have posted the question on the wrong board, or a macro.
I am trying to build a word document from an excel macro (with some success) and I am running into some issues with excel not understanding some of the word macro commands. An excellent example of this is when I am trying to insert a page break as seen in the below code snippet:
'open word and create a new document Dim wdApp As Object Set wdApp = CreateObject("Word.application") wdApp.documents.Add
'put some text into the document wdApp.Selection.typetext Text:="Document title" wdApp.Selection.TypeParagraph 'insert a page break wdApp.Selection.InsertBreak Type:=wdPageBreak
I know the insert break command works fine because I can get it to work within a word macro. When trying to get excel to run it in word is another story. I get the following error message:
run-time error '9118': Parameter value was out of acctable range
I am using Excel to produce work orders and I need each one to have its own unique number. Much like an invoice or contract number, each time I open the file I would like Excel to generate a new number for that spreadsheet with a value of 1 more than the previous spreadsheet.
I have been playing around with some data and can't seem to get it the way I want it. I have played around with Pivot tables and grouping but I can't seem to figure out how to accomplish what I need in Excel. To better explain I have attached some test data of what I am trying to accomplish.
It is data for a time study to compute labor hours. I have managed to group everything together per "work order" and "Employee ID". I am trying to sum up the labor hours by work order. I know it sounds simple but I do have another question. Once the total hours are set. Are they still available in the same format when put in a Pivot Table?
I am trying to create a spreadsheet that will automatically increase the work order number by 1. The cell will always be in the same place. The idea is that when the file is opened it populates the number. After being closed and reopened the number will be 1 higher than the previous.
The page will reused by various people to create and print work requests for my mechanics, I want it to assign the W/O automatically.
I looked at threads realted to printing but wasn ot able to find something similar to what I need. So here is my problem:
I have a file with more than 100 worksheets (each sheet contains the invoice for one store). I would like to create a macro that would enable me to determine the order in which worksheets would be printed. How to do it?
Idea #1: the printing order would be based on the value in cell L1 that would contain the route number for each store. Stores belonging to the same delivery route will have the same value in L1. So, the macro should first print all sheets with 1 in cell L1, then print all sheets with 2 in cell L1 and so on...
Idea #2: Creating a separate data sheet with the list of all stores and their corresponding route number. Let's say info is contained in range A1:B150, where Column A contains the name of the stores and column B contains the route numbers. The macro then should look at that list to determine the printing order of the subsequent worksheets (the name of the store in column A would be the same as the name of the worksheet corresponding to that store).
Idea #3: sorting my 150 worksheets manually. It does not solve my problem fully, though, because stores do not always belong to the same route. So the manual sorting should be carried out daily and would not save time at all.
i have a made a macro that copies info to a new sheet now that is working great but if i change the name of the work book it wont work any more so i need the macro to work with what ever name i give the workbook
the current name is
AVERAGE PRICE (update 2009) Mimmos Armico 170809.xls
I've recorded a macro that copies an entire tab into a new spreadsheet then goes on the copy and paste information from one tab to another.
When I run the macro from the Tools>Macros menu it works perfectly. But when I copy the code and add it to that of a button it fails and posts the following error: Run-time error '1001': Select method of Range class failed.
The first attachement shows the code for the macro as it is alone, and the second shows how I simply copied and pasted it into the 'view code' window of the button.
Needless to say I'm a beginner at macros and only every record them, I can usually make stuff work that way but this has me stumped!
I need a way to re-order an excel worksheets columns based on another worksheet.
Data is extracted from a database into excel however users can configure the columns in the initial system. to how they like This causes problems when the data is copied into an excel spreadsheet I have created as the data copied will not be in the same column order as is required.
How can i reorder the columns without physically having to cut and paste the columns to match?
I have attached a sample spreadsheet.
You will see on the spreadsheet that 'fixed columns' is the order that i require the data however 'variable columns' is not in the same order.
I am trying to write a formula whether it be in VBA or a Macro that will do the following.
In cell A7 and A10 there are validation boxes that drop down with a list of items that can be selected.
We want the user to be able to add multiple items under each month but keep the list to only what is needed. Therefor the function I am trying to get is once cell A7 has a selction or isnot blank or is greater than 0 we want to add a line directly below it with all the same functionality as line 7. Everything else will shift down and maintain the same functionality.
I have a attached a sample workbook... Can this be done
I would like to know if ther is any quintile function or something like that. Is just that i need to order some imformation in quintile in visual basic.
To run a macro from the first tab of the workbook but have it do it work on another tab.
In the workbook in question I have a tab called "input" were certain information in updated and is linked or used in formulas on other tabs. Some of the tabs have macros that do various functions. I would like to set up one macro button on the "input" tab that would run the macros on the other tabs instead of having to run each one individually from its own tab.
Below is on of the macros that I would like to run from the "input" tab and have it update the "AP Accrual" tab
I have a print macro that works very well, but the files print randomly and I have to put them on order as they print. Is there a way these could print in order?
VB: Sub Batch_Print()
Dim Input_Dir, Print_File As String Input_Dir = InputBox _ ("Input directory path containing the files to print")
' Defines Print_File equal to the first Microsoft Excel file found
1. first I export data and directly paste in the "RAWDATA" Sheet. 2.There are 50 columns and each has header like Clientname,date,Id,campaign,websitename,frequecncy etc. 3.Exported data does not have same order 4.so when I paste data in excel I check manually if orders are in correct or not?which takes my long time to review/manually check
Using macro or something else to review the order and if any discrepancy then raise error? Need Excel to check order of columns ?
firstly i have attached said spreadsheet 1st sheet is named purchase order 2nd sheet is named purchase order numbers
upon opening the spreadsheet i would like on sheet purchase order to automatically input the next available number from column a in sheet purchase orders ( in this case next available is st010 and put that into cell k12 on sheet purchase order
i then want to enter the relevant data in sheet purchase order cells b16 , b23 , g23 , i23 and d28
i then want to click a button with macro attached to transfer that data in to sheet purchase order numbers
I was wondering if there could be a way for a macro to Look at the column i have in this example and have it end up like the ends up with tab.
I start of with the "starts off with tab", and manually enter letters till i get the ends up with tab.
Basically the macro needs to look at the column and see where the yellow pointers are. From here it should Put letters in alphabetical order starting with A, ( once it hits Z it should go to AA, AB , just lik excel columns are named after Z ).
SO where ever the yellow box is , it should have a new letter in alphabetical order, everything below the yellow box till a new box will be that same letter.
MY example tab of the column finished should explain what i need and help clear any problems i presented here.
Starting at E8 and going down the E column there is a list of non sequential dates that could potentially be very small or extremely large. These dates must be sorted in ascending order together with all the data in their respective rows so for example
John Ball 20/2/07 Mark Dunn 19/2/07 Tim Jones 18/2/07
should be sorted as
Tim Jones 18/2/07 Mark Dunn 19/2/07 John Ball 20/2/07
If anyone can write such a piece of code it'd be very time saving.
I've got a PDF file that I was hoping to convert into an Excel sheet, but it doesn't look like that's possible, xince I'm working with only Adobe Reader, not Acrobat. Anyway, I need to compare 1 column of this report to another report that IS in Excel. Is there a way to have a macro compare an Excel file with a PDF??
I have a macro which loops through data, deleting those rows that are marked with a "Y". However - it appears to always want to do this in three stages. The first time I run the macro, it delete's a large chunk of those marked rows - but it nearly always leaves two rows. The second time I run it, it deletes one of those two remaining rows. And then I run it again and it deletes the final outstanding row. I'm sure i've done something stupid here - the code is below
I need to remove hyperlinks across probably 30-40 workbooks, is there a way of doing creating a macro that would do this across many instead of 1 at a time?
Everytime a cell (say B18) changes value I want the following to happen:
If it changes to "Annual" I want row 20 to ungroup
If it changes to "Quarterly" I want rows 22-25 to ungroup
If it changes to "Monthly" I want rows 27-38 to ungroup
From what I can see on other discussion groups I need to enter a code on the worksheet from view code... but I cant work out the code that I would need to enter.
I have a file with date from the whole year. Now i want that he splits for me in the file the weeks. So that i have all the info for each week. (seperating by 2 or 3 blank rows)
A second thought was to copy paste them to a new sheet for each seperated week.
and if i just splits them by inserting blanks rows between the weeks. I was wondering if it is possible to make a pivot for each week
I am sent an email that contains multiple blocks of information.
They're broken down like this:
Title Link ID Department Date Status Value News
There are about 100 of these blocks of text in the email, and some of them are duplicates. What I'd like to do is copy them into Excel, and run a macro which separates them into the appropriate column and removes the duplicates. The problem that I'm running into is some of the blocks have a value (highlighted in red above) and others don't have anything at all. I'm looking for a solution that will be able to evaluate the text and if the cell after Status isn't value, I'd like it to insert a blank cell, a cell that says ignore, or something that will keep the format correct.
why the macro "try()" in the attached workbook does not work?
I get the error message: "Unable to get the Vlookup property of the WorksheetFunction class"
Sub try() Dim i% For i = 1 To 35 Sheets("Sheet2").Select myValue = Cells(i, 1).Value Sheets("Sheet1").Select n = WorksheetFunction.VLookup(myValue, "A1:A11", 1, True) Sheets("Sheet2").Select Cells(i, 2).Value = n Next i End Sub
I am looking to create a sheet that automatically updates itself in alphabetical order, when we enter any data.
here is the case: - I've 30 secondary sheets and 1 master sheet -----------------------------------------------------sheets detail----------------------------------------------- Master Sheet detail: master sheet's column A contains name from A3 to A100 (user can edit this column)Column B to to AM contains data corresponding to each name in column A
Secondary sheets detail: column A contains name from A3 to A100 which are linked to master's column A (means any change in Master sheets' column A will change this column).................. (user cannot edit this column)column B to I contains corresponding data. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I want that when user enters a new Name in master sheet and presses "Enter" then:- Column A of master sheet should automatically arrange itself in ascending order, along with all the corresponding data in column B to AMsince secondary sheet's column A is also linked with master sheet, so they should also be updated along with their data in corresponding columns i.e B to I
I've tried other websites and solutions for sorting of rows but since i've little experience with excel VBA, things are not quite working for me.
I would like to use this database list I export from another program to excel format. What I want to do is to change in the C column.
The value under Akt.saldo is how much of a given article we have in stock (saldo). And the Rest. in column B is the reservation, how much of that article thats is going to be shipped at that day. ex 14161 year(14) week(16) day(1).
So as you can see in column C the Rest. value never subtracts from the stock. What is want is something like that below.
Here is just selected all the values under stock and moved to the next column. Then used white color to hide it.
Here i subtract the hidden value with the reservation to be able to see how much is left after that order.
And the same here. Subtracting next order with the current stock.
How do i do this with a macro? The list is changing everyday.
