Menu Bar/Navigation :: Tool That Creates A Menu Bar Or Code?
Oct 20, 2009
I have a workbook with multiple sheets. Is there a tool that creates a menu bar or code that I can add that would support navigation?
My goal is to have something with approximately 4 options (buttons?). They would link to 4 different sheets that serve as indexes within the workbook.
I know I can add a control like a button to a given sheet that would take the user to given sheet when clicked, but can I make the button 'float' above all the sheets, or add to a menu bar, or something? I just don't want to have to add the button to every sheet in the workbook.
I am looking for something simple/easy, and am not looking for anybody to do the work. I just have no idea on how to approach the problem.
Im building a Menu list for my customers. I want to do it in XL sheet format. Can i know how to create tabs (like hand should apprear,when cursor come to the tab and should be like button, where we can name it) in the main sheet?. I have lot of innovative Ideas to come with beautiful menu file i need your assistance further to build my menu list.
Within the 'tools' menu option you have 'Macros'. On a standard tool bar you have the option to record a new macro, edit......, however sometime last week I created a custom button and placed icons on my tool bars that allowed me to click them to record new or run custom made macros. After a clicking the 'custom macro' buttons a few times by mistake, I decided to remove the custom buttons in the hope of returning the macro options (within the 'Tools' menu option) back to normal. However this has not been the case. Now I have no option to record a new macro the the 'tools' menu system.....it has disappeard. Please could someone tell me how I can reset the 'Tools' menu system back to normal?
I have a column with various drop down menu boxes and I need to add another selection to the menu list. My problem is, it's been so long since I did the drop downs, I have forgotten how to do it..
I'm adding a menu selection to the right-click menu that you get for cells. I can add and remove the menu option but, when I try to execute the macro tied to the menu, I get "the macro...cannot be found". I can't figure out what appears to be a "pathing problem". I'm sure it's simple but...
Now this is something which I dont even know if it can be done, but its something which I would use, a lot. When clicking on a button, like a normal button from the control toolbox, is it possible to open a menu from this? So I click on the button i made called "accounts" and this opens a menu next to it with different options.
my worksheet menu bar is displaying the ' Chart' menu no matter what I do. Not only do I have no charts in the workbook, (verified this by: )
For Each ws In Worksheets
ws.Select MsgBox ActiveSheet.ChartObjects.Count
Next ws
but adding worksheets, selecting various parts of a worksheet, creating a chart and deleting it, and everything else I've tried has no effect.
One interesting thing - the first chart I added (to test if it would 'unstick' itself upon deletion of the new chart) was named 'Chart 2', implying there was a chart1 that existed previously.... although I am fairly certain I never added a chart to this workbook at any point.
Also, the menu bar is working fine in other workbooks, and changes to chart and back to data like normal.
Suppose I delete a (unknown) number of items from the Worksheet Menu Bar. This can vary because of the fact that my excel sheet is being used by a different number of people, all with a different Worksheet Menu Bar configuration. Is there a way of counting how many Menu items are still left in the Worksheet Menu Bar?
So, suppose all that is left (after using the program) in the Worksheet Menu Bar are Excel, File, Tools, Help. How can the porgram find out that there are only 4 items in the menu?
I am taking an EXCEL(online) class and in my current assignment i am to create a 'list' for sorting and querying. However i cannot find the 'list' option, under my DATA option on the toolbar. I have tried all my toolbars and shortcuts but I am unable to find it anywhere.
I have a 'dashboard' worksheet in 2010 and want to be able to click on a cell in this sheet and have it take me to the assigned worksheet. They are all in the same workbook. e.g if i click on Leadership i want it to take me to the Leadership tab, Skills to take me to the Skills tab etc The 'dashboard' will be the only viewable sheet in the workbook until one of the items on the page has been clicked.
I have a very basic understanding of macros and I'm not sure if this would work or if i should use a formula instead?
A spreadsheet that needs a new menu item in a custom menu does not show the custom menu code. Tools-->Customize-->Commands-->Rearrange Commands shows the menu and allows me to add a new menu item and macro.
After saving and exiting excel and going back into the spreadsheet, the new menu item is gone. How can I find the code to do this to keep the menu item? In the VBE, I looked in the object browser(F2) in all of the libraries and could not find the code. In the workbook_open and workbook_activate I can disable it with CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls("menu").Delete and it disappears.
I have made an excel addin named "INDNUMFOR" and want that this should display under "Data" of main menu bar. thus, a new item (sub menu) should appear naed "IndNumFor" under Data main menu.
Option Explicit Dim cMenu1 As CommandBarControl Dim cbMainMenuBar As CommandBar Dim iHelpMenu As Integer Dim cbcCustomMenu As CommandBarControl
'(2)
Set cbMainMenuBar = Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar")
'(4)
Set cbcCustomMenu = cbMainMenuBar.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlPopup)
'(5) Give the control a caption................
I have created several spreadsheet with customized menus. In step 5 when I type a period the options for selecting Caption does not appear. In step 6 the 'Control' word didn't appear in list. Sometimes the options in step 6 do appear BUT not the option for Controls. I have created spreadsheets with menus that work but the only way I could do it was to cut and paste from the website and then modify it.
I used the following to create menu's and run macro. http://www.ozgrid.com/VBA/custom-menus.htm
The menu is only avaliable in the excel file it was created with. I want it to be avaliable for ANY file that I open, even if I create a new excel file. I would like to have access to my menu's.
I have recently opened a file sent to me, and since closing it my Edit menu does not work properly when I open any existing files or start a new file
The problem is with Copy, Cut Paste and Paste Special, when I click on the Edit menu they are all greyed out, also if I right click they are also greyed out
Obviously the file I opened has changed some settings, how do I re-set this
I have some code that loads and unloads a command under the "DATA" menu bar. Is it possible to add an item to the menu bar and put the commands under the new menu item? For example: Add "XYZ Consulting" as a menu bar item so it would like as follows: File, Edit, Insert, Format, Tools, Data, Window, XYZ Consulting.
I have created an item on the menu bar (called “Personal Macros”) to run a number of macros in a spreadsheet. Under the menu bar I am trying to create two ControlPopups (called “Grouping Preference 01” and “Grouping Preference 02”).
For each ControlPopup, I am trying to add Control Buttons to the right, which will run the macros assigned. For Grouping Preference 01, add Macro 1 and Macro 2 as control buttons. For Grouping Preference 01, add Macro 3 and Macro 4 as control buttons
I have code to create the new menu, add popups, and add control buttons but it is not working as expected. The current code is placing all four macro control buttons under the same ControlPopup. I want the control buttons for macros 1 & 2 under one popup and the control buttons for macros 3 & 4 under another popup.
I have set up a menu bar and I want to run two macros. The code I am using for some reason is only running one of the macros. I can't figure out why the other one will not execute.
I can weld together a bare chassis, or a complete turn-key car, or anything in between. With that I am putting prices next to every option, and part n piece that goes on the chassis. This is fine when I choose welded chassis under car type and just add a few options to it.
However if I choose turn-key or even roller, there are items that i need to choose between like rear coilover manufacturer and what not, but I dont need to add that price in considering its already included in the turn-key price of $135,000.00
So my question is, if I choose bare chassis, can I leave everything the same, but if I select turn-key, can I make it so it does not include that price in the bottom total cost of the car?
I am wanting to make a macro into an add-in. An add-in is basically a workbook with macros that is opened when excel is correct? I know how to create an additional menu item under an existing one, but I'm wanting to create my own menu with this add-in item under it. I've used this code to try and create the new menu and placed it in the workbook open:
But ran into an error on the first line of code. I saved the workbook with the add-in macro in it as an .xla and used the addins under tools to have it open each time.
Looking to get a "X" to appear in appropriate box "in leave request form tab, cell M14, modified PTO box" that corresponds with correct selection from drop-down menu "in leave calendar tab, cell K6"... if i select "modified PTO from the drop down selection in K6, i would like to see a ""X" appear in "leave request tab, cell M14", then i can apply the formula to the rest of the selections in the drop -down...
I've got a workbook with multiple worksheets related to several subsidiary companies for each state & territory, resulting in 450+ worksheets in the workbook. I created a summary sheet with a dropdown menu for each state/territory that pulls in the relevant data using "=indirect". For example, selecting CA from the dropdown menu populates the combined revenue, expenses, etc., for all subsidiaries in CA. However, I've got 50 states plus some territories. I'd like the revenue, expenses, etc. for every dropdown option. Ideally, a separate sheet (or whatever) that lists all 50 states and the revenue, expenses, etc., for each one below (or across).
Is there any way to do this automatically so I don't have to select every single option and copy and paste the numbers into a different worksheet?
