Macro To Change Cell Backcolor
Oct 16, 2009I'm trying to make a macro that changes the backcolor of a cell when it's value is higher then 3. I could use some assistance with the code down below which is too long.

View 5 RepliesI have a userform which stores the backcolour value of some labels in a spreadsheet so that it can be recalled dependent on what month a user selects. The trouble is that in a spreadsheet, I want to use these backcolor values to colour the interior of a cell. However, the values don't seem to be liked by VBA and I get a 'subscript out of range' when I try to match:
Range("SPPCScore").Interior.ColorIndex =
This error comes up against values 65535 and -2147483633
What am I doing wrong? what would be the best way to store a backcolor value in one cell so that it can be used for a cell interior colour?
I know this is gonna be simple for someone out there, but I can't work it out!
I have a user form that needs to be the color RGB(242, 99, 52)
When I am setting up my form, how should I define the BackColor property?
It's currently in the format &H000080FF&
I can change it with VBA in the initialise event by doing this
Me.BackColor = RGB(242, 99, 52)
but that's not what I'm trying to achieve.
So does anybody know the answer as to how to change the RGB value to the required property format?
As Im struggling to find a resolution to my protection problems from another thread, I thought id try to work a way around it. Now I am having a problem with what i thought would be a relatively simple issue: When contents of cell A1 is word "TRUE", then ComboBox1's backcolor is white. Else ComboBox1's backcolor is grey
THis is the code I have been trying to manipulate, by placing it in the worksheet coding:
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
With ComboBox1
If Cells(32, 5) = True Then
.BackColor = &HFFFFFF
Else
.BackColor = &HC0C0C0
End If
End With
End Sub
I have a multipage on a userform and wanted to change the back color. I can change this color fin for buttons and the userform itself, but I don't see the option in the properties for a multipage. And I didn't see it as an available command from vba. Am I missing something here?

2nd - Also a macro for deleting the text contents of cell C1 based on cell F1 having a value greater than 0.001. Therefor if cell F1 has a number greater than 0.001 it changes the colour of celss A1 - G1 and also deletes the text in cell C1?
i am currently using the macro below to import text files into a spreadsheet. Currently, it begins the import in cell A1 which is what I recorded it to do. how do I change the code to begin the import on the active cell?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have code which changes the worksheet tab names based on contents of a cell. I borrowed some very useful code from a previous thread. I'd like to modify the code so that the tab name updates everytime the cell contents change.
My code is below:
Code:
Sub ReNamer()
For L = 3 To 9
Sheets(L).Name = Sheets(L).Range("A1").Value
Next
End Sub
Is it possible to run a macro when the value of a partcular cell is changed? (and if so how!)
View 9 Replies View Related Basically, I need to reformat a set of data (see before and after). A specific column should only contain 1 value, if there is more than 1 value it will be separated by a comma. If this column contains more than 1 set of data then I would need to insert a row and duplicate the information based on how many different sets there are. All the copied data should remain the same with the exception of the "Key" column, it should only have 1 value and each copied row should contain the corresponding value in the key field.
BTW - it could be on the same sheet or a different worksheet (doesn't matter)
BEFORE
Name Number KEY Date
Name1 1 a,b,c 12/1/2011
Name2 2 x 12/1/2011
Name 3 5 one,three 12/1/2011
AFTER
Name Number KEY Date
Name1 1 a 12/1/2011
Name1 1 b 12/1/2011

Three cells - A1:A3. If A1's value is modified, I would like to have some sort of event macro that recognizes the change and thus initiates and clears the values of cells A2 and A3. Basically I don't want to have to user-initiate the macro...but have the actually changing of A1's value initiate the macro.

I've created a button that, when clicked, will give a time and date stamp. The issue I'm having is that when I click the button, it displays the information in the active cell. I've searched for an answer, but keep coming up blank. Here is my macro:
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to automatically change the names of the sheets in my workbook based on the contents of cell A1 in each sheet.
I found some code on some website and inserted it into the ThisWorksheet module:
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim wSheet As Worksheet
On Error Resume Next
For Each wSheet In Me.Worksheets
if wSheet.Name = "SomeName" then
If wSheet.Range("A1") = "" Then
wSheet.Name = "Sheet" & wSheet.Index
[code].....
This code appears to work properly, but only when the workbook is closed and then reopened. Is there a way to make this code run anytime cell A1 in any of the sheets changes? I've found several sample codes that purport to make a macro run automatically on a cell change, but I can't figure out how to incorporate the code above with the Worksheet_Change code to make them work together.
I would like to run a macro when the value of a certain cell changes.I found the following code:
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As range)
If Not Intersect(range("A1"), Target) Is Nothing Then
MsgBox "A1 has changed"
End If
End Sub
Cell A1 contains a lookup function. When the value of this cell changes, I would like to run the code. This code runs only when I change it manually.
I have following macro run when the given cell changes:
HTML Code:
Private Sub Case_Checkout(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim KeyCells As Range
Dim WS As Worksheet
Dim LkUpVal As Range
Dim LkUpRng As Range

It was working...and then just stopped working. I scan a barcode into cell A1 and hit enter. Can't figure out why is stopped unhiding the tab. I haven't changed anything...
I have a spreadsheet which has a version number in it on a given cell. This cell is protected as is the spreadsheet.
I want to create a macro that will target the given cell and ask user to input new value and then change the cell value.
This macro will be attached to a button.
I already know how to disable and enable spreadsheet protection but have got no clue as to go about the rest.
I have a macro that I would like to run everytime ANY cell is changed in a given worksheet. I've read some posts that explain how to do this when say ONE cell is changed, but I cannot figure out how to expand on that.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am working on a training scheduler. In which a sheet contains the details of the trainings that are scheduled now i need that if any training is canceled then a mail needs to be sent (Status is updated in cell). I have code to send mail however the problem that i am facing is that how can i execute this macro when training is canceled. I did a search and found the following thread
How to call a macro based on a value of cell?
but the code given in the thread uses a specified cell address to execute the macro. Where as in my case I can not provide a specific cell address as any training can be canceled.
I have not used an event macro before and am trying to one update a cell when changing a cell. I am basically copying a number to another cell that is an input for a calculation and then returning the calculated value back. How do I reference r69 in the code to start the event macro?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm in the process of trying to get a macro to run when one cell, named "ImpVersion" changes.
Here's what I've got so far.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = Range("ImpVersion").Address Then
Call Implement
End If
0:
End Sub
The problem I'm having is that ImpVersion doesn't always exist, as it is only added in when it's needed. When ImpVersion doesn't exist, I get a 1004 error.
I would like to create a macro that will automatically change the name of the sheet any time a value is entered into cell a1. For example, in cell A1 of sheet1 I would input "Hello", and then the tab for sheet1 would be automatically renamed to "Hello".
Here's the twist - the workbook will have multiple sheets, and I want all tabs to reflect the value of a specific cell (a1) in each sheet.
For example:
value in sheet1, cell a1 = "Yes" - corresponding tab name would change to "Yes"
value in sheet2, cell a1 = "No" - corresponding tab name would change to "No"
value in sheet3, cell a1 = "Maybe" - corresponding tab name would change to "Maybe"
etc...
The "tab change" cell would always be cell a1 in each sheet.
I am still kind of new to using VBA code and my editing skills are very novice at the moment.
How would I change this Code to run on only the active cell selected and that is all, instead of the whole page?
Sub AddIFERROR()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Dim xCell As Range
Dim xFormula As String
For Each xCell In Selection
If xCell.HasFormula Then
xFormula = Right(xCell.Formula, Len(xCell.Formula) - 1)
xCell.Formula = "=IFERROR(" & xFormula & ","""")"
[code]....
Trying to get this macro to auto-run after the referenced cell is changed:
Sub Headerdata()
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightHeader = Range ("d1").Value & Range ("e1").Value
End Sub
I got it to work in one book but it won't work in any other book...
I am trying to color a cell with a macro. I am using
ActiveCell.Offset(a,b).Value= a number then a want to change the color of the cell to yellow. When I tried to code this, my Active cell's color is changed, but not the offset cell.
How do I change the color in an "offset cell".
I have gotten good modifying existing ones to fit my purpose but still have a lot to learn about creating them. I would like help in creating a macro that would search out several sheets (JanD.....DecD) and search for names in column K and a location name in column L.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an application that updates the text string in A1 every x minutes (time may vary). I'm trying to develop a toutine that will trigger a Macro/call a function/subroutine once only on each change of data (and then not trigger again until the next change...and must only trigger on change of data in this specific cell). So the timeline looks like this
start A1 = "Apples", Fire macro once
start + 10mins A1 = "Oranges", Fire Macro Once again
start + 25mins A1 = "Pears", Fire Macro Once again
etc.
Triggering the macro is no problem but constraining to one triggering is proving a problem (for me anyway) and is really holding up my application progress.
I am using the worksheet change routine for conditional formating of more than three items.
The problem is that it only changes if I manually type within the page and does not update if the cells are updated via formulas.
To explain a little more, I have three sheets that I combine into one to help find the best rate from three companies using the following formula:
=IF(AND(MIN(PMI!C4,UG!C4,GE!C4)=PMI!C4,MIN(PMI!C4,UG!C4,GE!C4)=UG!C4,MIN(PMI!C4,UG!C4,GE!C4)=GE!C4),FIXED(PMI!C4,2)&" All",IF(AND(MIN(PMI!C4,UG!C4,GE!C4)=PMI!C4,MIN(PMI!C4,UG!C4,GE!C4)=UG!C4),FIXED(PMI!C4,2)&" PMI/UG",IF(AND(MIN(PMI!C4,UG!C4,GE!C4)=PMI!C4,MIN(PMI!C4,UG!C4,GE!C4)=GE!C4),FIXED(PMI!C4,2)&" PMI/GE",IF(AND(MIN(PMI!C4,UG!C4,UG!C4)=GE!C4,MIN(PMI!C4,UG!C4,GE!C4)=GE!C4),FIXED(UG!C4,2)&" GE/UG",IF(MIN(PMI!C4,UG!C4,GE!C4)=PMI!C4,FIXED(PMI!C4,2)&" PMI",IF(MIN(PMI!C4,UG!C4,GE!C4)=UG!C4,FIXED(UG!C4,2)&" UG",IF(MIN(PMI!C4,UG!C4,GE!C4)=GE!C4,FIXED(GE!C4,2)&" GE","ERROR")))))))
Please feel free to condense this if you like.
So when I update a reference on one of the first three sheets, the cells update on this sheet but the cell colors never change. This is the code for the worksheet change
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim Cel1 As Range
Dim Rng1 As Range

Set Rng1 = ActiveSheet.Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormulas, 1)
