View 3 RepliesI have Form Button in Excel Sheet which Calculates by reading other excel sheet. Now the problem is when user enters data in a Cell by double Clicking on it and after entering data if he directly clicks on a button then Macro that needs to be invoked is NOT executed. The only way is that he needs to press EnterKey OR Click on any other Cell and then click on the button.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have users who don't press Enter (or move to a new cell) after entering text. They then try to click a form button - and of course - the macro does not run.
Is there an xl/vba solution to force them out of edit mode before clicking the button?
In an Excel worksheet all command buttons are disabled while a cell is in edit mode or while the cursor is active in the formula bar. Is there a way in VBA to save the cell's contents and execute a command button if clicked while a cell is in edit mode?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to query a column and find the cells that have been incorrectly coded. For example the coding standard is #<reference number>/. Sometimes people forget the "/". It is not as easy as using search and replace because the string may have more contents than the above.
For example it may show: ATM/45678/#789876 dt. 1-2-14/ or it something like CHQ/44384/#78987600.
There are many permutations. So I need to find the cells that don't have a "/" following the #<reference number>, then allow a user to enter the slash. At this stage, I don't need code to find cells containing errors, I think I can figure that out. I do need to know how to allow the user to edit the cell as part of the macro. Once the user corrects the error, the macro should then continue. Is this possible?
I'm trying to create a macro which will edit the content of a cell and update. I'm just using the "Record New Macro" option in tools.
It doesn't seem to perform the F2 edit function within the macro.
I'm sure this has been discussed previously, but I can't get the search function to work for me.
I need to be able to copy a formula from a row that is 180 rows before the current cell.
I then need to edit the formula so that the rows all start at 6. then i need to change the column references.
The formula that I am editing looks like this after it has been copied from before:
=IF('Entry Form Portrait'!$d870="m",IF('Entry Form Portrait'!$n870="a",'Entry Form Portrait'!$a870,""),"")
So I need d870 to be changed to d6, the n870 to be changed to o6 (current column +1), the a870 to be changed to a6.
Then this resultant formula to be copied to the next column and a6 changed to b6, then copied to next column again and b6 changed to f6.
Then all 3 columns to be copied (or autofilled) down 105 rows.
I tried to do it by recording the macro, however it only works for the first time that i use it, and then just keeps repeating in the same place. I need it to use the cell i have selected as the starting point.
Have a macro that copies a formula from each of 100 workbooks to a new workbook. I want to display these formulas as text and want a macro or someway to display these cells as text. I have tried to record a macro that presses the F2 key, the home key and the apostrophe. This works for the one cell but provides the following macro that does not work for anyother cell.
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"'=VLOOKUP($A$30,'G:Variance Reports FY07[Salary Dist Var Repts_Cur Mth.xls]end of July'!$E$76:$G$200,3)"
Range("B3").Select
I am trying to write a macro that will insert a formula directly into the cells in column M of my worksheet.
The worksheet has about 3400 rows. When I run the macro it does not adjust the cell reference in the formula so I am getting the same value in all 3400 rows.
I am using the following ....
I've a sheet that presents the profitability of sales locations in a geographic layout (similar to Tables in a restaurant), each sales location is a cell, with roughly 1,600 locations presented. Each location is colour coded based on performance / measure, in a basic thermographic way [e.g. dark blue for very poor, solid red for high performance] with users being able to change metrics and re-colour cells accordingly.
The sheet is already information rich, but I'm wanting to detect the cell address directly under the pointer and populate a text box or other cell based on the value in the cell directly below the mouse pointer.
My question is; Is there a simple way of detecting the mouse position on the XL Grid? nb. Want to avoid having to activate cell beneath pointer.
Is there any way to refer to a cell that is directly to the left of the current cell?
I need to create a Comma-Separated Value file with the Excel formula in the CSV file. Because of this, I do not know the current cell location, but want to do something like =(Cell directly to the left of me) + (Cell two cells to the left of me)
Lets say we have prices in column (B) and in column (F) I want to insert a formula that says:
In the same row, look at cell in column (B). If price is between 1000 and 8000 then put 2.00 if price is between 500-999 then put 0.50 if price is between 1-499 then put 0.00
I need to achieve this using something like =OFFSET(INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW(), COLUMN())),0,-1) but I am not sure how its done.
I will be using this formula in a find and replace macro. So I can NOT make the typical drag and fill formula.
I have the following code that will go down through column "L", look for the value "ATS", and if found will move it to the right 1 cell. this works find,
My need is to also move the 2 cells directly below the cell containing "ATS", then clear the contents of the "Original" 3 cells before going to find the next instance of "ATS".
Sub Move_Values()
Dim myrange, cell As Range
Set myrange = ActiveSheet.Range("L4", Range("L5000").End(xlUp))
For Each cell In myrange
If InStr(cell.Value, "ATS") > 0 Then
cell.Offset(0, 1).Value = cell.Value
cell.ClearContents
End If
Next cell
End Sub

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've populated a temporary worksheet with several columns of data. In this example my Amount Column has several null cells. What I need to do is write a macro to find any nulls and populate the nulls with the data in the last populated cell above it.
Example: the four empty cells below Account (524150) also need to be populated with 524150. The cell immediately below 524200 also needs to be populated with 524200 and the 3 empty cells below 512800 also need to be populated with 512800. Week to week the number of rows will change and the nulls will also change.
I need to create a long series of checkboxes in which each box is linked to the cell directly to the right of it. When I try to copy and past the checkbox, the link doesn't update. Which means I have to go in manually and change every checkbox link.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a macro that allows me to type numbers in cells and it auto adds to the previous value... what would be nice is if when i hit enter the cell focus stays at the current cell and doesnt move the next cell down... that way if i wanted to enter multiple values into one cell i wouldnt have to touch the arrow keys to get back to the cell
e.g: i enter a value into A1 and hit enter, instead of the box focus moving to A2, it stays at A1

I have data in the first 50 rows.
Then in row 51 it column A it starts 0's.
I run the macro, it deletes all the rows with 0's, and it deletes row 50 also some reason. I do not understand the above macro very good to edit it, and the fact it contains 5 1's doesnt help me lol

I was wondering if it was possible for a macro to edit a file by opening each .txt file, searching for the word "Reference", and then replace it with the word "Ref". Then save and close the text file.
There are no delimiters in the text files.
I have an array formula i use to sum data by specific criteria:
=SUM(IF(Input_Sheet!$A$2:$A$1000>
=DATEVALUE("01/04/2011"),IF(Input_Sheet!$A$2:$A$1000
=DATEVALUE("??/??/????")
So that it searches for any date and replaces with the new ones, but obviously the use of quotation marks with the wildcards makes this difficult in VBA.
How to link the cell values in with the "Replace with".
Code:
Sub findrep()
Dim target, cell As Range
Dim i As String
Dim k As String
i = "Input_Sheet!$A$2:$A$1000>=DATEVALUE("??/??/????")"

How would my macro below be edited to keep the column sizes the same as they are in the original sheet?
Sub NewUploadFile()

Range("A3").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats
Columns.AutoFit

how to control either the X or Y axis error bars for a scatter chart.
I'm building something like a gantt chart and I only want to use the X axis error bars and delete the Y axis bars. I've been able to add error bars by using "ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).HasErrorBars = True" but when i select the error bars using "ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).ErrorBars.Select" the Y axis (Vertical Error Bars) are automatically selected and any formatting I apply is added to the Y axis and left off of the X axis.
Does anyone know how to delete the Y axis error bars and/or choose only the X axis error bars?
I've provided below a simplified version of the worksheets I'm trying to sort and the Macro I've recorded to sort the worksheet, however, I need to edit/update the macro for use on all the worksheets in the workbooks I'm sorting and specifically to REFINE the sort criteria for Column D and Column E.
The sort is run simultaneously and runs hierarchically A,B,D,E,F,G.
In column D I'd like the macro to sort numerically as it is doing but to IGNORE the prefix c. before the year when it occurs in the column.
In column E I'd like the macro to sort alphabetically as it is doing but to IGNORE any inverted commas: ' ' around the text as these are messing up the alphabetical sort for this column.
A
B
C
D
E
F
G

Below is the recorded Macro which I've called MANUAL_SORT2 this was recorded on a worksheet called BBCO with 103 rows in the column. I like the macro to be usable on all worksheets in the workbook also to add the worksheets all have varying numbers of rows!

I have a list of interest rates and durations and was hoping to be able to add in a third dimension of data which would either increase the size of the plotted points or change their colour depending on the rating. So have the normal scatter plot then save me from editing each point manually.
i.e.
A1
B1
C1
D1
Interest Rate
Duration
Rating
3%
3.5
A+

Is it possible to write code to paste a string in text select (double click in a cell) mode rather than cell select (single click a cell) mode? I need a string to paste in as if someone had double clicked then hit paste (so as to utilize special delimiters.) Here is the code that reads the workbook, finds the next available row, then pastes:
Dim strCopyToLog As String
strCopyToLog = Range("Q2")
Range("Q2").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("b1.b5000").Find("").Select
ActiveCell.Value = strCopyToLog
The way i have been creating macros is by going to the tools menu.....macro....then..... record new macro.
I have a file which I have re-formatted using a macro as described above however because i receives files every month to do updates every time i open a new file and try to perform that same macro it either wont work or it wont format the correct rows.......is VBA the solution to this????
I accidently put the Application.Quit command in the wrong place. Now Excel closes immediately when the macro executes. I can get into Excel if I disable the macro, but then it won't let me edit the macro. Is there a way to edit my macro without executing it?
