Macro That Will Navigate To A Tab For Defined Period Of Time
Feb 26, 2014I want to assign a macro to a button that will unhide a tab for about 10 seconds, then rehide it and navigate to another tab. How do you do timed commands?

View 4 RepliesI'm opening a workbook and then running the macro in the workbook. The problem is I would like to build a "timeout" feature if the macro is running too long (as some of the macro's this will run can take days to complete) but I don't know how to run the macro asynchronously. Also I need to know if i can get it to run asynchronous is there an event that will tell me when the process is finished. The calling application of the macro is written in VB6 and opening excel workbooks to run the macros out of. also the "timeout" feature must be done from the VB6 application it cannot be edited into the the workbooks containing the macro.

The data and calculations are on a separate worksheets. The data looks like this:

I'm trying to sum the data in column E based on the date range in column A and my formula is
=SUMIFS('Site CR'!E$5:E$5000,'Site CR'!A$5:A$5000,">01/11/2013",'Site CR'!A$5:A$5000,A5)
For some reason, my formula always returns 0 and I can't see why.

Here's what I have so far ...
I have a protected worksheet. Users wish to be able to track changes in the input cells. The suggested approach for this is to temporarily disable sheet protection and allow them to change the font color, then protect afterwards. What I would like to do is:
i) check whether they are in an input cell
ii) if so, then prompt the user with the 'Font Color' dialog box
iii) apply the font color selected to the input cell
I'm struggling to find the dialog box I need. I can launch the one to change the interior color, no problem (Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPatterns).Show). But that's no use to me, I just want a color palette that specifically relates to the Font Color
I have thousands of timestamps that have a start & end date and time in 2 separate columns. (one named start and one named end...)
I also have numerous set time periods that i'm interested in.. (about a dozen or so)
for example 01/01/2008 - 05/01/2008, 07:30:00 - 10:00:00
What i need is to be able to count the number of times the full time period i am interested (07:30:00 - 10:00:00) in falls in between the thousands of start and end timestamps i have. The time periods must also fall within the date range specifed.
So if my timestamps were
Start: 01/01/2008 06:30:00 & End: 02/01/2008 11:00:00, based on the set time period above, there would be a count of 2
and if my timestamps were
Start: 01/01/2008 07:05:00 & End: 02/01/2008 09:00:00 there would be a count of zero as there is not a full uninterupted timeperiod 07:00:00 - 10:00:00 between these timestamps.
and if my timestamps were:
Start 01/01/2007 07:00:00 & End 02/01/2007 10:00:00 the count would be zer as this is a year early!
I want to return a value based on once off time related data which is captured at 4 time periods throughout a day. I have another set of data which does not line up with this data but I want it to return the value closest earliest value.
Given this data:
27-6-14 3:00 12
27-6-14 7:00 18
27-6-14 11:00 19
If I have a time like 27-6-14 5:00 I want to return a value of 12 (Previous time). How would this be possible?
I needed to create even the simplest of VB Code and i'm struggling to get a macro to navigate around a worksheet.
Here's what I have so far...
Sub Macro2()
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
Selection.End(xlDown).Select
Selection.ClearContents
Selection.End(xlToRight).Select
Selection.Cut
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
Selection.End(xlUp).Select
(At this point, I want the cell 2 above the last selected to be highlighted)
ActiveSheet.Paste
End Sub
when the user selects any cell(s), then hits the command button, I want the code to move the cell(s) selection to the far left i.e. Column "A". I've managed this is a roundabout way, but I'm trying to make a far more elegant version.
Set C = Selection
With C
While Not C.Previous Is Nothing
MsgBox C
Set C = C.Previous
Wend
End With
So C is the selection made my the user, for this example they are just selecting one cell. The MsgBox proves to me the code to moving the cell selection to the left, but the While condition falls as the Previous test condition fails and bombs the macro. I cannot think of another way of doing this. Is there a method that returns X and Y co-ordinates as numbers?
Every day I gotta enter information in my work's website (intranet), however I dont know that much about manipulate with VBA the Internet Explorer application, for example once I enter information in the website, I gotta enter an ID after that I gotta select the date, then I gotta give some clicks in some checkboxes, then I copy some information from excel and enter that information in the navigator, and finally click on save. The thing is that I do not have access to that website in my home so is impossible for me to provide you with the link... what kind of codes do I need to do it, or where can I find a manual where I can learn to manipulate another application like the Internet explorer with VBA.

use code tags around code. Posting code without them makes your code hard to read and difficult to be copied for testing. Highlight your code and click the # at the top of your post window.
I have a simple function below to put in different forumlas in different cells to get stock quotes. When I run this I get runtime error 1004 application-defined or object-defined error. The first formula goes through but vba chokes on the next formula: ActiveCell.Offset(I - 1, 4).Formula = username

In the actual line of code the "..." above is another 20-30 or so cells in column "D". Probably no more than 150-170 characters in the line.

View 6 Replies View RelatedHow do I convert 7.30 hours into 7.21 (ie 7 hours 21min.) Note I do not wish
to use the standard hour:minute formatting.
Calculate certain time increments for various work-shifts. I have a start time,finish time and increments of time across the spectrum of 24 hours. There are also multiple start time across the 24 hour period with some start times begining on one day and ending on the next day.
Example
In B5 Startime is 22:00
In C5 Finishtime is 06:30
In I3 increment begins at 00:00
In I4 increment ends at 00:30
The employee working the shift from 22:00 - 06:30 would fall into the time increment of 00:00 - 00:30 where another employee working a different shift (08:30 - 17:00) would not. I'm looking for a formula that would return a 1 in a cell if the employee fell into the 00:00 - 00:30 time increment and a 0 in a cell in the employee did not fall into the time increment.

I'm just starting to get into VBA programming (beginnner), but I was wondering if anyone here could suggest actual programs or add-ins that I could buy that would allow me to create a trial version of my spreadsheet? either by allowing the user to use it for a few days or to allow the user to use it for a specifed # of times.

I have the following code in a simple userform containing only a label:
Private Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
DoEvents
Sleep 4000
Unload Me
End Sub
When I invoke this as a single macro in a blank workbook and immediately change focus by pressing ALT+TAB to enter NotePad the userform is shown and exits normally after 4 seconds.
However, when I issue this code from within a larger macro, and hit ALT+TAB to Notepad, the excel application hangs on the displayed userform until I click back into Excel.
If required, I can happily send you the code as an attachment.
I have a in field column M of my table that gives the week number of various dates within the table.
I would like to find the high value reached during each week based on the Highs which are located in column P, the highs consist if workdays during each week number.

I have an Access database, with a table of jobs processed.
One column for Job ID (Unique), Date it was processed, By Who it was processed and Comments ascoiated.
I need to chart a graph of Jobs over a period of time. How many jobs done per date. In excel preferebly, I have programs like Database Plus for excel. And I am familiar with VBA. I can't figure out how to uniquely sort how many jobs for each date. As there are numerous job entries for on the same dates. I think it can be done with an SQL query or sorting it with VBA somehow. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Or can anyone suggest an application designed for charting with Access databases in Excel?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am a flight instructor and legally we cannot work more than 8 hours in any consecutive 24 hour period. I'm trying to create a spreadsheet that will calculate the totals from that 24 hour period for me.
Right now I have something that sort of works, but not the way I would like it. I have a column for "time" that has the date and ending time of the flight and I am using that as if the total flight occurred at one moment (the ending time).
So, for instance let's say I did these flights
1: 8AM-10AM (2 hours, clocked at 10AM)
2: 11AM - 2 PM (2 hours, clocked at 2PM)
3: 7AM-9AM the following day (2 hours, clocked at 9AM)
If I have my formula calculate the time for 9AM the following day (totaling the past 24 hours) the first flight won't be included in the calculation since the hours from that flight is only imputed at 10AM. The formula would read 4 hours rather than the (actual) 5 hours.
Here is my workbook : 8 hour calculator sample.xlsx
Here are the formulas I am using
The time is formulated at date and time, with time being the ending flight time
The start time for the calculation is
[Code]....
end time is just =NOW()
Total calculation is
[Code] .....
All I'm trying to do is use the totals under "flight start" and "flight end" instead of the end flight time I had to put in under the date column.
We have one shared excel workbook and it is used by many people (more than 20 simultaneously), is there any way to auto save & close the workbook (session) if a user is inactive for specified time.
