Message Box Open Continuously During A Macro
Apr 25, 2007
With the MsgBox code, when that part of the VBA is reached, it requires the user to press the OK button for the next part of the VBA to execute. But is it possible when running a macro etc, for a MsgBox to appear right at the start, and remain for the duration of the macro, and then disappear (or an OK button appear) when the macro is finished? As some of the macros we run are long and it would be good to stop people from doing other things whilst it is running.

how to make a MsgBox open anytime a cell in Column A was double-clicked--and the content of the MsgBox was from the cell in the same row in column Z. I've now realized the double-clicking isn't an ideal solution, as it's easy to click in another cell and mess up all the formulas.
(1) Code that deactivates the "edit directly in cell" option when the workbook is opened.
(2) Code that opens the MsgBox when a cell in Column A is clicked just once (or similarly less fool-proof than double-clicking or right-clicking).

I'm a novice at VBA and I want a dialog box to display a welcome message once the user opens the excel file (worksheet). I can write the code to display a MsgBox but I can't make it to display the MsgBox once the file is open. I'm learning VBA by trial and error.

I want to display a message box to user upon opening a file. When the message box is displayed I want to display two buttons.
Button 1 = “Continue”
Button 2 = “Cancel”
If the user selects button 1 (“Continue”), I want the file to remain open and the message box will close.
If the user selects button 2 (“Cancel”), I want the file to close.
There is one condition that must be met for the “Continue” button. The message contains some disclaimer information. When the message box first appears on the screen, the “Continue” button is disabled. To make the “Continue” button active, I want to add a Check Box to the Message Box with a caption that reads “I agree to the Terms and Conditions”. Once the user places a checkmark in the Check Box, the “Continue” button will become active.

I have bit of code that:
(1) opens another spreadsheet
(2) updates that spreadsheet
(3) saves that spreadsheet
(4) closes that spreadsheet
If the spreadsheet that requires updating is open by another user, I display a message indicating the file is open and no updates occured. There are about 20 persons within the organization that may have this file open? Is there away to display the username of the person who has the file open?.

I am trying to make it so that when you double-click in a cell in column A, a message box opens populated with the text string in the corresponding cell (same row) in column Z. Seems to me like it should be easy enough, but despite spending the last hour searching for clues, I can't seem to figure it out.

I am trying to write VB code that upon opening an excel spreadsheet a message box appears that the user must read, than select yes or no. If select yes than the file will open, if no the file closes or does not open. Here is what i have tried - it doesn't work.

YesNo = ("Are you sure you want to open?",vbYesNo + vbExclamation,"Will")
If_vbYes Exit_Sub
If_vbNo_Close
End Sub

I have a model which extracts data from an external data sournce using an ODBC query. This data is then used to generate a pivot table. I have incorporated code to update the query and the pivot table on startup but would like to disable the Enable Query Refresh message box which occurs at startup (it would also be nice to disable the security warning but I know that is a no no)

I'm using 2003 (I know!) version & I can't open excel files directly by clicking on them. I get an "error in sending command" message. I can circumvent problem by opening Excel & then opening the relevant file, but this sometimes causes me problems.

Suppose there are two ranges
rngA = range("A1:B5") ' The cells that change
rngB = range("D1:E5") ' The results
Assume that based on an iterative lookup process the values in rngA change. After each iteration the values from rngA are determined and placed into rngB (this i can do). Each time rngA changes i need those values to be added to the previous rngA values (otherwise the values being stored in rngB).

I'm looking to have my stopwatch run continuously until "and only until" a command button ("Stop") is clicked. I already have a code and stopwatch in place. I have 5 command buttons: start (starts the timer), call (activates/hyperlinks to another sheet where I have more command buttons and data entry needed/), stop (stops the timer), reset (resets the timer), and record (stamps the elapsed time on the sheet1).
They work great BUT the problem is, when the cell is touched (i.e. when you type a character or double click on any cell even if it's on a different sheet, or even on a different workbook) the timer stops!
I'd think that all this would require just a simple string/line inserted in my code. I'm really, really new to VBA and doesn't know how to write my own codes yet. I have to google what I need every time and do trial and error! Just to give you more info-- I'm using this for a call simulation program, in which the user is an operator taking in a call. She would have to be aware of how much time have passed after performing some actions/data entry on the different sheets on the workbook. I hope I've explained it enough. :D Anyway's here's the code I got, which I think needs just a few edits.

I have a series of data in 2 columns...say A and B...that I want to concatinate into a string of data...i.e A1&A2&B1&B2&C1&C2 etc etc....
Can I include this in a macro so that it will continue to concatinate the data until it gets to the end of the list (i.e a blank cell) ?

I am currently trying to sum up values every day of the week. (salaries )
That means I have a sheet called Salary where I have the entire year mapped out pr. day. Like you see underneath:
Date
30/12/13 0
31/12/13 0
01/01/130
02/01/130
03/01/130
04/01/130
05/01/130
etc.
In another sheet called Overview, I have another column divided into weeks, like this:
Date
30/12/12 0
06/01/13 0
13/01/13 0
20/01/13 0
27/01/13 0
Now what I need to do is, take the 7 days in a week in the first sheet, and summarize it in the first week in the overview sheet. Now that is simple the first time, =SUM(Salary!C1:C7)
But how do I drag down and automize it so that the next row becomes =SUM(Salary!C8:C14) instead of =SUM(Salary!C2:C8)?
So basically I need to autofill with intervals of 7 (the 7 days in the week) on every row in my Overview sheet.

I am working on making a spreadsheet that will rack which guests are using which membership for a certain client. Here is what I've got so far. My goal is to have the spreadsheet work like a calendar where the dates are changing daily as well as all the information with it. I was able to make the dates change, but I am unable to have the specific data change with them. Is there a way to set a column of information to a specific date?

I have a large matrix, with categories as columns and entries as rows, that have an "x" or a blank for each category showing if that entry has it or not. Some of these categories will get hidden based on the current user's usage. I want to use a subset of the unhidden columns and hide all the row entries that have ‘x’’s for this subset of columns.
The way I want to go is to create a list of the unhidden columns that match my subset criteria, I was thinking in a Range object. From there, I can use these columns and go row by row checking the rows value at that column to determine if I should hide it or not. This is how I think I should approach this and I'm having a bit of trouble with objects/syntax in VBA. Here is the code/pseudo code I imagine making this possible.
VB:
Dim Subsets As Range
For Each col In Sheets("Test").Range("A3:M3")
row 3 has the option # For Each column that determines If it Is In the subset
If col.EntireColumn.Hidden = False Then
[Code] .....
I am pretty sure everything except the Set Subsets = Union(Subsets, col) line is okay. The questions I have about using the Subsets Range object as this data structure are
Obviously, how can I "build" this object as I go along checking for unhidden columns that include my options? Why wouldn't Set Subsets = Union(Subsets, col.Entirecolumn) work?What's a good way to put ranges into Subsets so that I can easily use it to know which columns to check in each row entry? Can I add an entire column, or should I just reference the column of the cell that's in Subsets?
I've read over Ranges in VBA and am still coming up short with this usage.

DISCUSSION
I have a spreadsheet that I have been creating for work. It involves a UserForm (FRM_TubingTransfer) and writing the data entered onto sheets (either the ‘MASTER SHEET’ or ‘COMBOBOX DATA’) in the same workbook.
PROBLEM
I have (with your help and much trial and error) gotten the workbook to a reasonably working model. The only major thing left is the ‘AVAILABLE TUBING’ sheet. This sheet is the most complicated, I think, because it isn’t just strictly writing the data.
First, any time there is a NEW PROPERTY / SUPERVISOR entered in the form onto the COMBOBOX DATA screen, the code needs to check the AVAILABLE TUBING sheet and check if that data has already been entered there (This is because there may be some instances where the PROPERTY NAME, and PROPERTY NUMBER are the same but have a different PROPERTY AFE. Aka, there may be two entries with ‘WELL 1’ that have different AFE numbers but they are the same location and need to be treated as such.). Also, if a pipe yard (denoted by “-YARD-“ in the Property number and AFE number column) is entered, do not enter it on the AVAILABLE TUBING SHEET.
Second, when a TUBINGTRANSFER is processed, the program needs to do several things;
For the FROM LOCATION (if a well and not a pipe yard)
Add Buried Joints to the buried cell
Add (E) to the damaged cell
Subtract (A), (B), and (C) from the total on location cell
For the TO LOCATION (if a well and not a pipe yard)
Add (A), (B), and (C) from the total on location cell

I want to create a excel file with VBA code that ping's the IP's from column A, give a response to column B (OK or NOT OK) and in column C gives the last "OK" ping date and time. Something like:
Code:
A B C
194.154.200.10 OK 14/04/2013 13:10
194.154.200.11 NOT OK 14/04/2013 13:00
194.154.200.12 OK 14/04/2013 13:10
The ping process should be a continuous loop.
What I found this far involved text files and I don't want that.

I’m trying to program a specific label within a userform to continuously display the system time… I’ve tried to code something that loops while the userform.visibile property is true. This obviously just hangs the system… Is there an easier (or any other way) to do this?

currently i am putting together a vba code to do the following:
1. Cycle through 3 sheets and waiting for 2 seconds on each sheet
2. Refresh after the cycle has finished
3. and then be contiously looped.
4. a button or something to make it stop looping.
This is the code i have got thus far:
Sub SwitchingSheets()
NewHour = Hour(Now())
NewMinute = Minute(Now())
NewSecond = Second(Now()) + 2
WaitTime = TimeSerial(NewHour, NewMinute, NewSecond)
Sheets("Sheet1").Select

I did a macro on my mac to transfer a sheet from one workbook to another worbook. It works very well when the destination workbook is open. Therefore I wanted to add some piece of code to check if the destination workbook is open. If not then I wanted the macro to open it before tranfering the sheet. Here is the code I´m using for tranfering the sheet
Sub Transfer_Sluttet()
If ActiveSheet.Index <> Sheets.Count Then
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Set ws = ActiveSheet
Sheets(ws.Index + 1).Delete
ws.Move Before:=Workbooks("Sluttet.xls").Sheets("sheet2")
'Moves active sheet to beginning of named workbook.
'Replace Test.xls with the full name of the target workbook you want.
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End If
End Sub
This is the type of macro I useually use on my pc to check if a workbook is open and if not then open it
If IsWorkbookOpened("Filename.xls", "C:Documents and ..................

I have a Macro (AutomateReport) that, among other things, calls and runs a macro (ReportStep1) in another workbook.
ReportStep1 includes three prompts asking the user to press "OK" to confirm that the data included is correct. When I call ReportStep1 as part of my larger macro I would like to suppress these prompts or automatically respond "OK" so that I don't have to be bothered with them.
SendKeys works sometimes, but I am hoping for a more reliable method.

If I run the macro and get the message box too pop up because I did not move, the macro will not run. I have too choose another one before I can get the one I want to work. I guess it needs a reset if the message box comes up.

I am just having a problem where at the end of my macro, the macro is looking for a value in a cell and there is no value at the end of the game for it to paste so I get an error. Instead of getting an error, I would like the macro to display, "You win!", if cell e1 is =1, "You lose!", if cell e1 is =2, and "tie game", if cell e1 is =0.
