Is there a way to make excel 2007 pop up a warning whenever calculation is set to manual by a macro or any other means? I have on several occasions noticed formulas not working, only to discover that calculation was set to manual without me noticing. And then I don't know how much of my work may have been afffected. This seems like a pretty vital piece of information, and I am surprised that it's not made more obvious.
View 11 RepliesI'm trying to turn calculation to manual, but there does not seem to be an Options button under tools on the mac I'm using. I've checked another mac and it is also missing. I'll probably end up using a pc for the calculations anyway, but I was wondering if anyone knew what was up?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to calculate the present value of a terminal period in Excel. The manual calculation and excel PV function are off by about $98,000. Both calculations are using the same capitalization rate and terminal life. My PV Excel formula is as follows: =PV(discount rate-growth rate,remaining term (years),-terminal cash flow,,0)*present value factor in last year of cash flow) What is causing the difference in values? Is there something in the Excel formula that is causing the difference?
View 1 Replies View Relatedhow does excel determine if it opens a file in manual or automatic?
how can i choose that excel opens every file in calculation manual?
I am on a Mac running OS 10.4.11. Whenever I launch Excel 2008, I have to go to Preferences and set Calculation to automatic.
Then Excel calculates automatically until the next time I launch the program. Then I find it has defaulted back to manual.
Is there a way of using VBA to check which calculation option is on - "automatic" or "manual" ?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a set of procedures that require auto recalc to be on to work correctly. I've tried application.volatile and Application.CalculateFull with no luck. I'm trying to put together code that makes sure recalc is on, but that first determines the current recalc status and then changes it back to Manual when necessary. I don't know how to determine the current status. The following code should work if the red sections are fixed.
Sub TempAuto()
Dim CurrentState As unknown
CurrentState = Application.Calculation status
Application.Calculation = xlAutomatic
If CurrentState = Manual Then
Application.Calculation = xlManual
End If
End Sub
Is there a way that I can set a single worksheet in a workbook to always be on manual calculation, but keep all other sheet in the workbook set to automatic?
I want to be able to open the workbook, any calculations to perform automatically and then i will select the 'manual' sheet and perform these calculations manually. I also need to these settings to always apply each time i open the workbook.
In as much as I would like to heed the advice of this site to avoid setting excel calculation to MANUAL, I think I have no choice this time. I have a file that uses a lot of SUMPRODUCT(--) and array formulas. DSUM would have been faster but this file I am working on will be sent to users who barely knows excel. When they need to insert rows, the DSUM criteria will have to be reestablished and I do not think they are capable of that. Anyway...when calculcation is set to manual, all excel does to warn users is the little test "Calculate" in the status bar. What I would have liked is that a red button with text "CLICK TO REFRESH" to appear when calculcation is needed i.e. status bars is showing "Calculate".
View 2 Replies View RelatedI know how to turn off automatic and manual calculation modes manually in excel or through VB. But is there a way to make the automatic calculation mode ignore changes in certian cells? It would be good if you could right click on a cell and turn this on/off as an option. I assume I will have to code this in vb somehow, but I am a novice. Something like:
Sub test123()
For Cells = Value.Range("I7:R22")
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Like I basically want part of my sheet to be set to manual calculation mode, and partially to automatic...
I want a specific workbook to be always on manual but when I open other workbooks I want them to remain on automatic even though the first workbook is set on manual through vba code. Is that possible to be done?
This is the code I run:
Private Sub Workbook_Activate()
With Application
.Calculation = xlManual
.MaxChange = 0.001
.CalculateBeforeSave = False
[Code] .....
I know that Application. Calculation refers to all open workbooks but I don't know the code to specify the manual calculation to this workbook only while others are open.
where is possible to get more detailed manual - reference - for using ADO in excel? Help in Excel doesnt content much information of ADO, I have tried to find other manual, but no results.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a macro that transfer data from one sheet to another (I have sheets called Form and Sent). Basically, the users enters data in the Form Sheet. After they're done, the data gets transferred to the Sent Sheet. I don't want users to be able to modify the data in the Sent sheet. I just want them to see the records. Also, i want the sheet protected from having users manually inputting datas. I can't accomplish this when I protect the sheet, since it is giving me an error while running the macro to transfer data. Is there a workaround?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have what I'd thought would be a simple problem, but I haven't yet been able to track down an answer. I am trying to manually rank a list (column) of players' names. What I'd like to be accomplish is something to the effect of being able to enter a value for a single player, then have the cells resort themselves AND update the list.
Example:
RANK PLAYER NAME
1 Jon
2 Jim
3 Joe
4 Jack
5 Jane
I'd like to be able to manually change A5, for example, to 2 and then have the list update itself to read:
RANK PLAYER NAME
1 Jon
2 Jack
3 Jim
4 Joe
5 Jane
I've toyed with macros that took care of the sorting piece but I'm still left with duplicate numbers (ranks) that I must then manually change and/or fill down. There are over 500 entries (rows) so this can become a bit tiresome.

This is probably a really stupid question, but I can't for the life of me figure it out. I need to do some very basic filtering, but the dropdown box where you check off the things that you want to filter by is not defaulting to show checkboxes. This didn't seem like a big deal at first, but it's made it impossible to filter all but one things. For instance, to filter everything but values that are 0, I would have to manually click every single value in the dropdown box. Clicking "select all" is doing literally nothing. It's this way for all my excel documents. how to get the boxes back? I've included a screenshot of what comes up whenever I click on the manual filter button to show what is coming up.
I have an action that deletes a row, and decrements rows counter by one. But, if the user manually deletes one row, I don't get that information (decrementation). Workbook pretection is out of the option.
What are my choices?
I was thinking, is it possible to capture a delete event in general, and add some code to it? Or maybe even completely disable it?
I am thinking that I must have something set up wrong some place, but have not done anything that should have changed my formulas
Its not that they are gone but just are not auto calculating.
I tried just a basic sample invoice and the figures do not calculate without manual calclation
I have a pivot table and if i select my headers i have the availability to sort a-z and z-a plus manual ...manual says to drag the item where i would like it... I have tried the excel database..they reference manual sort but really give no explanation.
Scenario.. I want to sort a-z.. then manual sort a few items to the top of the list..
I always use manual calculation with Excel, does it affect the calculation within a Macro when I run it?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIs there any way of opening a workbook via VBA that will set the calculation to xlCalculationManual BEFORE the workbook calculates anything on opening.
The purpose: I'm opening the workbook remotely from an Access document and there are quite a few formulas in the workbook that take a few seconds to calculate. I have a modeless UserForm that displays from the Workbook_Open event which I want to get displayed before all the calculations take place so the user has something pretty to look at while he/she is waiting. But it seems that the workbook performs a calculation before running the Open event code.
I would like to use a combobox and I want to force the user to selected one item from the list, and not to be able to type anything in it.
My other solution would be to use a listbox but I like the combobox design better...
I found this code in a MSDN Forum but somehow, it does not seem to work.
Maybe it is because I do not know what to do with a "public class", or my Excel 97 does not support this.
I tried pasting the "private sub" in a sheet code (where my combobox is), but it did not work.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub ComboBox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) _
Handles ComboBox1.KeyPress
e.Handled = True
End Sub
Is this code actually working under excel 97 and if so, where do I have to put it?
My pivot table is not auto summing each column properly, and I can't manually enter a formula to do so. I tried adjusting the settings of the rows and columns through the pivot table wizard, but no luck. Is there a way around this limitation?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have received from reading previous posts in this forum. Now I have a problem that I have struggled with for weeks. Ref: Excel 2000. I create (Purchase Order) Workbooks with 50 (POs) Worksheets, and 1 summary (Index) worksheet. The Index worksheet has hyperlinks to each PO (created via VBA), and works as expected.
Subsequently, each worksheet has a hyperlink back to the Index worksheet also created from VBA
Sheets(Counter + 2). Cells(2, 2).Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Sheets(Counter + 2).Cells(2, 2), _
Address:="", SubAddress:=Sheets(PONumber & " THRU " & PONumber + 49) _
.Cells(Counter + 3, 1).Address
Before the hyperlink in each worksheet will work I must (with the cell containing the hyperlink selected) either right-click|Hyperlink|Edit Hyperlink then press "Enter", or pres Ctrl-K (which brings up the edit dialog) and then press "Enter." If I don't manually edit each hyperlink on each worksheet these hyperlinks select the targeted cell on the same worksheet as the selected cell, not the targeted cell on the Index worksheet. Note, when I manually edit each hyperlink I am not actually making any changes to the hyperlink (thought something is obviously happening that I am unaware of), I am only accessing the edit dialog box.
I work for a farm where we receive fresh produce from harvesters daily. I created a workbook with worksheets(ws) for my daily inventory counts according to product type and separate worksheets for each day of the week showing the orders shipping for that particular day.
I collaborated the data from the inventory count ws and the ws for each day into one ws called Harvest. I am trying to figure out how to keep a running total of what needs to be harvested vs. what is in inventory so that I can show my harvesters what new product is needed to fill orders for today forward, after subtracting what is available in inventory, and showing the amount shipped for past days . Another part that's throwing me is that harvest brings in new product daily and sometimes they bring in a surplus.
Here is an example:
Lets say today is Tuesday and my Inventory ws shows we have 50 kale in inventory - cell D10
Monday ws shows an order for 50 kale, cell D14
Tuesday ws shows an order for 100 kale, cell D14
Wednesday ws shows an order for 100 kale, cell D14
Thursday ws shows an order for 100 kale, cell D14
On my Harvest ws, Since today is Tuesday, how would I keep the Monday cell showing 50 kale as the amount shipped on Monday, Tuesday cell showing we need 50 kale to be harvested to add to the 50 in inventory and fill the order of 100, Wednesday cell showing that we need 100 kale harvested, and Thursday showing that we need 100 kale harvested?
If Harvest brings in a surplus of 100 kale on Tuesday so we have 100 kale in inventory on Wednesday how do I get the Harvest ws to now show that Monday cell should still show 50 kale shipped, Tuesday cell should show 100 kale shipped, Wednesday cell should show that we don't need any kale harvested since we are using the 100 surplus in inventory, Thursday cell should show we need 100 kale harvested.
I am relatively new to Excel. I have figured out how to use named ranges as lists and use INDIRECT Data Validation to have a list's selection made in one cell populate a new list in an adjacent cell.
A1 contains a list of "Characters" (The choices are "Numbers", "Letters", or "Other")
Based on the choice in A1, B1 has to populate with the following:
- A list of available Numbers to chose from (1,2,3..etc)
- A list of available Letters to chose from ( A,B,C...etc)
- Text that instructs the user to enter text into the cell manually
(For example, their "Other" character might be something like "@#$%^&*!". (Not unlike my mental state trying to figure out this problem.) I want them to see the instruction to "ENTER CHARACTERS HERE" and then be able to type in the cell.
So I need B1 to either populate with a menu that is dependent on the menu selection in A1, or allow for free text entry depending on if they chose the "other" option in A1.
I have in cell A2 a number, and my VBA is as follows;
If Target.Address(0, 0) = "A2" Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
Range("a" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)(2).Value = Target.Value
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
This basically adds any new number typed into cell A2 into a list which starts in A3 then continues down through column A.
I also have another part of my VBA which says;
If Target.Column = 1 Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
Cells(Target.Row, 2).Value = Date + Time
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
This part works fine and adds a date stamp to my blank cells in column B whenever I manually type anything into column A, however, when the first part of the VBA works the date stamp is updated into cell B2 and I want it to update next to the new entry that has just been added into column A by the first VBA doing its job.
I think I need to change;
Cells(Target.Row, 2)
To something that refers to a Range of cells (would be B3-B5000 for example) but my knowledge on how to change that part of the VBA has now ran out!!
Is it possible that the very same macro runs kind of incorrectly while it's being run as "automatic" (F5 key) and absolutely correctly while run manually, line by line via F8 key?
I am trying to debug the code but no luck as I get proper results while run manually.
I currently use a manual time clock for my employees to punch in and out. I then use Excel to tally their times. This is very tedious and error prone.
Is it possible to use Excel as the timeclock itself? I know that the employee can enter the time in a spreadsheet manually. But this also opens the door for error and potential dishonesty.
What I am looking for is, if the employee can punch in and out by doing a keystroke and Excel uses the computer's clock to timestamp.
I'm having trouble using VBA's Find function.
I have a worksheet which holds a concatenation of AppID's and App Names in Column U. There are approximately 12,000 rows and each cell in Column U holds one of either of the following value formats:
242 - Application 1
242 - Application 1; 1845 - Application 2
242 - Application 1, 1845 - Application 2; 34678 - Application 3
etc...
I need to find all instances of a chosen App ID and then copy any row in which the App ID appears to a new sheet (to obtain the chosen AppID I am presenting a list of those to the user in a form Listbox, and I know the selection ofthe AppID is functioning as I am currently presenting it in a MsgBox prior to running this part of the code).
When I run a manual FindAll on a given AppID it returns all the cells in Column U which that AppID appears, but when I use the following code to achieve the same it does not seem to find the AppID's.
(NB - I've "borrowed" this code from a posting on Ozgrid, but I have also compared it to the many other FindAll methods available on the web and they all apppear to be pretty similar).
(The changing of the cells interior colour is just a way of identifying whether it's working prior to writing the code to copy the row ino a new sheet).
Dim temp2WS as Worksheet
Set temp2WS = ThisWorkBook.Worksheets("AppID")
Dim lCount As Long
Dim rFoundCell As Range
Set rFoundCell = temp2WS.Range("U1")
temp2WS.Activate
