I've got a problem with copying cells from table A to B.
A short insight of the situation:
Table A shows: ITEM_1 = 3, consequently ITEM_1 from table A is copied to table B for 3 times.
I've got a few huge information blocks to handle (up to 5000 items) obviously it's unreasonable to do this manually.
I've added an xlsx file with more detailed description.

I am trying to capture data for statistical analysis, but have hit a snag. As shown in attached sheet I have each day for the year broken down into hour time slots into which data will be added. As I will need to come up with a number of similar sheets in the future I was wondering if there is a way to automate through vba, a quick way to copy down the hour slots for each day, 365 times, rather than the laborious task of copy and paste manually.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a macro in Module1 of workbook "BAU" called "ExtractToSheets" which exports data depending on the contents of a cell (Thanks royUK et al)
At the moment however, you must run the macro manually to export the data.
Now, i have put some simple validation in column K of worksheet "BAU Data" within the "BAU" workbook. Whenever a cell within a predefined range with column K is changed to "Yes" i want the macro to run AND i want the row the cell is in to be locked so it cannot be edited further by the user. I have had too many users mess up previous sheets i have made to collect my data, and i wish to make this one somewhat more idiot-proof!
Any pearls of wisdom folks?
I would have attached a representation of my sheet, unfortunately because there is now a macro in my spreadsheet, our trigger-happy security software won't let me post it!
I want to copy certain columns from Sheet6 to Sheet1. For instance, Column G in Sheet6 would be copied to Column A in Sheet1. I have over 20 columns that need to be copied. There are over 5,000 rows in Sheet6. Thiomething that I have to do daily.
View 2 Replies View Relatedis it possible, after inserting new sheet rows, to automate the copying of formulas and cell formatting into the newly created space, instead of manually copying the formulas and formatting down into each column?
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy problem is automating a process that takes information from a single column with a range of D7:D77 in 22 spreadsheets and places this information in a summary spreadsheet as rows corresponding to the names of each spreadsheet. This is within the same workbook.
For example say spreadsheet A1 has a column from D7:D77 I would like this information in a summary spreadsheet with the row titled A1 and D1:D77 transposed. This would then be repeated for the remaining spreadsheets
am making Excel for private use, i need the following makro to be active, here is the idea because i didnt yet work with makros at all:
If A1 = False
then Range B1:D1 will be locked cells
If A1 = True
then Range B1:D1 will be unlocked cells
Those rules apply to 1 day in the year.
the range A1:D1 will be copied about 400 so the makro should be active to each day separatly.
Check the picture attached for example of one day
I would like to make a macro to format all my cells.
I need it to format my last digit to superscrift IF there is 4 digit after decimal point.
How to do this?
I would like to copy a range of cells with a marcro, for example copying range C3:C15 over to D3:D15 and when I run the macro again I want range D3:D15 to copy to E3:E15 and from there to copy E3:E15 to F3:F15. I want to keep that going to the next and the next with the same macro. But it just keeps copying the the original range which I recorded in the macro, but I want it to keep going. If somebody can help me with that, I would sure appreciate hearing from you.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a spread sheet where you fill in an order, so customer name, item being purchased, quantity and price. I now need a macro that will copy that info over into an invoice.
If the customer is only buying one item, that would be straight forward, as it could just copy that info across, but if the customer buys two items, the macro needs to see that there is more data to copy, then insert a new row on the invoice and copy the details of the other item.
I browsed through the other posts concerning copying and couldn't find (or maybe I didn't just understand) how to do what I want. I looking for a macro for a comand button that when pressed copies certain cells in the active row to another sheet. I recorded a macro for what I wanted to do ( to make the explenation easier) for one row but even the recorded macro refuses to work.
I'll put the recorded macro here if it helps someone, but as I said even that doen't work

However, whenever I run the code, if there's even on word that is bold in the cell, then the entire text string in the cell turns bold. How can I stop this from happening? i want to keep the format of the text string the same, only remove and replace the items listed in the code.
Why does my macro mess up on second line C23 and not places Play Equipment or the amount in the right column it stays on row C22

I've attached a sample workbook in which there are 3 macro-buttons.
The buttons will paste a shape in the active cell. So this means the buttons themselves could be deleted and replaced with a shape.
Since locking and then protecting the cells disables the macros, how can I amend the code to make sure the buttons' cells are protected from the copying and pasting macros? Or, how do I ensure that the macros only work in A1 - E5?
I need to search column C for the text "X". If an "X" is found, I need to copy the text from the cell directly left of it and paste it into a seperate worksheet into cell B2, then go back to the original worksheet and delete the cell with "X" on it and the cell to the left.

I have a spreadsheet that allows users to paste set data from a PDF Image (using OCR) straight into Excel and then use the MID function to split the data accordingly.
Unfortunately, the OCR isn’t too intuitive and gets it wrong sometimes.
So to counter this, in another sheet (in the same workbook) I have a manual input section, and a simple macro button that pastes this data into the same fields where the OCR text would be, so that the main sheet works exactly the same way as before.
The problem is, and most likely due to the simplicity of the sheet, if a combination of OCR pasting and manual inputting is used, when I hit the paste button, it over rides the OCR data with blank cells
In the link below I have shown what is currently happening (1, 2, 3), and an example of what I would actually like it to do (4, 5, 6).

So, in the 2nd scenario, I would like “5” to recognise that the respective cells in “4” already contain data and fill them ‘Grey’. This I have already achieved with basic conditional formatting.
However, I need to take it 1 step further and say that if the parent sheets cell (Auto OCR) contains data, as well as filling cells (in sheet Manual) lock these cells off and prevent the end user from adding data and/ or being copied over to the parent sheet.
Is this possible?
The result then being the parent sheet with both OCR text and copied text from the manual input sheet.
Both sheets are protected anyway and only allow for user input in certain areas, so is it even possible to apply further protection once the sheet is locked already?
I have a spreadsheet that I need one thing automated on it (for now). It is a tracking sheet for our QA coordinators. What happens is they have a list of medical charts that are incomplete, when they mark the column complete with an "x" then the cell that contains and "x" under the Team Leaders name should disappear.
I have a code similar but I don't know who to use and array in the code.
This is what I used to change the date of a fields automatically (I recieved this from someone on line here)
I have worked out how to get my macro behaving the way I want however now I would like to automate the whole process. Basically I would like the macro to work its way down a column (in this example column F) until it has completed and there is no more data in the row before the last.
Here is a code snippet of my macro
Code:
Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+a'
If ActiveCell = 2013 Then
ActiveCell.Offset(, 2).Range("A1:E1").Select
Selection.Cut
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll ToRight:=24
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 24).Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
End If

I have got the general principles of macros and VBA downpath.
Excel Example.xlsx
The document I'm working with is confidential, so this is an example. Basically, I'd like to string together the content of all cells from the second column associated with each company in the first column (separated by comma + space). In the original document, the companies are located in B2 to B8486, and the key words are located in D2 to D8486. My example uses ampersands, but I seem to understand Concatenate would yield the same results.
I am trying to write a small macro involving Len and Left formulas. This will take input from two cells and and give the value on a third cell. I know how to do this on excel. This goes as follows:
Value on A5 = HB_AM_1
Value on B5 = 1
My formula to extract the specific text =LEFT(A5,LEN(A5)-LEN(B5)-1).
My result on D5= HB_AM
Here, my inputs are clearly defined and I can write this formula on cell D5 to get the result. I can copy this down to the end of my data and I can get my result.
My challenges: I need to do this for various reports where the data extends to various rows. I think looping will solve the problem, but not sure how to do it. The value on cell B5 will always show the last number at the cell A5 (1 in the eg above). So, if the number in A5 is 10, value in B5 will also be 10. This is already there in my data, so I do not worry about this part.
I have a stock sheet of about 1500 items that is printed every 3 months for stock take.
The changes are then entered manually. I have set up a stock order sheet using VLookup and manually enter the items that need to be ordered. I'm wanting to know if i could use a macro to do this automatically and check only for the stock items that have changed (ie. items have been sold ). Stock levels needed on hand are usually constant but is changed from time to time so will have to be taken into consideration. I have included an example worksheet which would better explain what i have been doing so far. Also if possible could the macro generate a new worksheet for the order sheet and name it the corresponding date and month of generation.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've recorded a macro which selects "1" in a filter drop-down box then prints some pages, then comes back and selects "2" in the filter then prints some pages, etc etc etc.
I've looked at the code for this and it treats the "1", and the "2" etc as text each time - originally I had the filter on names, but the names change each time I need to do this whilst the process doesn't, so I filtered on numbers instead.
However, I would have to enter the repeated blocks of code down to 1000 to get it to select down to "1000" in the filter. About 3/4 lines each time but with me manually typing in 1, 2, 3, 4 .... 999, 1000.
Is there a way to say in VBA 'repeat filter selection until you've run out of numbers then come back to "All" and stop ?
Here is my scenario:
4 step process or more?
1)I have a text file (with delimiters) that I want to be copied over to an existing workbook (because of the header)
2)So now I have a temporary workbook that includes the header and the data from the text file. I want this temporary data to be transferred or copied to a sheet in another workbook(s), wipe out previous data and store the new one. Save the workbook(s) and close.
3)Close temporary file. Don't save.
4)I want this process to be automated -- run it daily everyday at say, 6:30 in the morning.
I need to use the Advanced Filter tool to allow the user to filter (in-place) the Guests worksheet while providing the following summary stats: total revenue, ave. revenue, max/min revenue and total number of tours ie the user should be able to enter any criteria below the database to to show only those records (and summary stats) that satisfy the criteria.
To automate the operation of the advanced filter tool, I need three macros. "SelectRoom" and "SelectGuest" macros should prompt the user to enter a value through an input box to filter the data according to a client's name or language tour. The third macro, called "ShowAllGuests" should clear the criteria row and dispay all clients in the database.
The first two macros should include an error message to prompt the user to rerun a macro if no clients satisfied the criteria while the "ShowAllGuests" macro should include a message box statement at the end to display a short message giving credit to the macro author. These macros also require a button each (three in total) in the Guests worksheet!
I'm in the process of creating a budgeting spreadsheet for monthly expenses. I have one column (D) as "Paid" and column (F) as "Date Paid". Is there a formula that can automatically insert today's date of entry into the "Date Paid" column, once the "Paid" column has been filled in with an amount?
For example: I enter $20 in the "Paid" column, then the "Date Paid" column is self populated with that particular days date. I would like to do this for every sheet.
I have a spreadsheet tool that I use to calculate values on a set of variables, based on values on an initial set of other variables, for a large number of cases.
The calculations require a number of sequential steps to be repeated to get the calculated values for each case, and I am hoping there is a straightforward way to use a VB macro to automate this process.
Essentially, these steps are required to calculate values for a single case:
1. A data input sheet holds the values on the initial/input variables for each case. The first step involves copying the string of values for the case on the input variables into a sheet where the calculations are done.
2. As soon as the input string of values are pasted into the calculation sheet, the calculation formulas generate values for the case on the new, output variables.
3. The output variable string is then copied from the calculation sheet into a results output sheet. This copy/paste procedure needs to offset from the first row on the output sheet, so that the row number where the values on the output variables are stored correspond to the case ID. For example, case ID 10 is stored 10 rows down from the first row (i.e., on row 11). Case ID 100 is stored 100 rows down from the first row (i.e., on row 101).
As there are a very large number of cases, I need to have a control panel in place, where I can indicate the range of case IDs that will be processed. This takes the form of two cells one indicates From ID and the other To ID (for example, From ID 1 To ID 100). The macro then uses this information to loop through the calculation steps outlined above for these case IDs.
Is there a way i can dictate to Word from an Excel macro that i want it to open, Start a mail merge, use a pre-made file as a template, use the excel file the macro is in as the source, get it through the whole setup of the Mail merge all the way to the print function?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have 5 Excel files. The first one is Main, and the other 4 are subfiles, namely A1, A2, A3 & A4. I have a need to open Main, then click a button to start a Macro (in Main) which will do the following, sequentially:
1. open A1
2. run a Macro in A1
3. close and save A1.
4. open A2
5. run a Macro in A2
...
12 close and save A4.
The files A1..A4 are a file server and being shared. If they're being used by another user, it cannot be saved - so I would have to skip it and continue with the next A. It would be great if start Excel, open Main, and run the Macro in Main fully automatically.
