Message If Cell Content Cleared
Nov 2, 2009
I need help with a code to detect deletion of a cell's value.
In cell I10, a user can choose one of six items from a data validation list. Right now, I have code in there to pop up a message if the user selects value "X" from cells F6:F10 and G6:G10, but cell I10 does not have value "A", "B" or "C" already selected.
What I want, is if cells F6:F10 and G6:G10 have value "X" in them, and the user deletes values "A", "B" or "C" from I10 or changes it in any way after it has been filled, then to have a message box pop up.

I'm trying to use the Worksheet_Change event to replace all cleared cells with a default formula. This allows users to override the default, or restore the default when they need to:
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("Data")) Is Nothing And Target.Value = "" Then
Range("DefaultFormula").Copy
ActiveSheet.Paste
ActiveSheet.Application.CutCopyMode = False
End If
Here are the results with various different regions selected:
Single cell selected and cleared -- works. Multiple cells selected and cleared -- doesn't work if the first area selected contains more than one cell. Otherwise, it works, no matter how many other areas are selected.
Example1: Selected range is (D2:E2, G2) in that order, it does not copy the formula into the cleared cells. Example2: Selected range is (G2, D2:E2) in that order, the code does copy the formula into all the cleared cells as desired.
The "IF" condition is not TRUE when the initial area has more than one cell.

I am working on a spread sheet for work were we have to test certain items on certain days, e.g. one item needs to be tested every Tuesday & Thursday, when the test is completed you click on a drop down box and click on completed or in progress.
What I would like are a couple of things to happen as follows:
A message box would pop up when you open the file to inform the employee that the test is due today only on Tuesday & Thursday if not completed or in progress from the drop down box. Once you select completed or in progress from the drop down box the message box no longer appears. Every Tuesday & Thursday when it's first open it deletes the cell content, thus triggering the message box test is due today, and once completed or in progress it no longer appears until next Tuesday or Thursday.
The spread sheet is on shared drive and used by several users, let's just say cell A1 is the cell I have the drop down box

Is it possible to have a cell when selected create an auto-generated email message to a recipient in column A with information taken from other columns inserted into the email. I understand it may be a bit vague at this moment, but I'm just wondering if this would be an alley to investigate further or not.

I'm not sure if this is impossible (surely not) or if I'm just Googling the wrong terms (most likely). I have a sheet that we use to record staff shifts and when they take their lunch breaks. By default most of our employees have a 1 hour lunch and they take it 4 hours after they start. So far so good, I've set up a formula to work out what time their lunch would start and end based on this.
N237: =IF(AND(L237>0,L237<>"NWD"),SUM(L237+(1/6)),0) - Lunch start 4 hours after start time in L237 (NWD = Non working day)
M237: =IF(N237>0,SUM(N237+(1/24)),0) - Lunch ends 1 hour after lunch start time in N237
However, not everybody follows the default - some people take lunch later, or don't take as long due to working shorter hours.
What I'd like to do is allow users of the sheet to overtype the times generated by the formulas when applicable, but if they delete their own custom value for lunch breaks I would like the formulas to re-appear and thereby return lunch times to the default values.
I could do this through VBA with a button to look for blank cells, but I would prefer it to happen automatically. Is this possible and if so what code would I need to make the magic happen?
I should maybe have mentioned that this sheet has space for 250 names and an area for each day of the week, so these formulas would appear in 1,250 different places

I use this to read cell content, add some text/characters (ie. [ and ]) and change the properties of the complete cell
Sub COMMENT()
Worksheets("DVD Lijssie").Activate
If ActiveCell.Value 0 Then ' Change all in to ... ... ...
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = ActiveCell.Value & " " & "]" & " " & "["
With ActiveCell.Font
.Name = "Arial Narrow"
.Size = 8
.ColorIndex = 16
End With
End If
End Sub
HOW can I change this vba-code so it leave's the content of the cell like it is and add some content with the use of let's say TexBox1 and ONLY use different font properties for the newely added content?

Formula/macro/etc that would enable me to have content of a cell changed based on the content of another cell in the same row.
Example: cell in column D says "PSA" - so I would need the cell in column H for that same row to read "Radio"
I would need an entire sheet scanned to review for these occurrences and make the appropriate changes. I also would need the formula to be inclusive enough to scan for variations in column D cell content (PSA 1, PSA 2, etc).

For a table like the one below produced for the sake of example (actual is much much bigger) I want to make it list rows that are true for a certain column for a certain variable in the matrix. So for say water terrain, which types of activity can I do i.e. swimming. Or for Offroad the activites which I can't do i.e. Run and Swim.
ActivityWaterRoadOffroad
Jog nym
Run nyn
Walk nyy
Swim ynn
y=yes
n=no
m=maybe

I'm sure this has an easy solution, but I'm having a problem putting it into a working formula. Column I lists checks numbers. Column J contains the amount of the check. Column K contains a "Y" when the check clears the account, otherwise it's left blank until the item clears. Cell O2 is where I want the balance formula.
I want O2 to look at Column K & then sum the amounts from Column J where the corresponding Column K is blank. If it were just one cell, it's a pretty easy if(k4="Y","", j4), right? But since it's a range of cells, not sure how to tell it to look down the range for all uncleared checks and put the sum in one cell.

I have a worksheet that I have removed a good number of hyperlinks, using the remove hyperlink function. My problem is that every so often, the hyperlinks are back on the sheet, without seeing any wording for the hyperlink.
Some place, a long time ago, I saw that there was something in the program that either stopped this from happening or turned the function off or a way of restoring removed hyperlinks. Today, I can't find it.
If I run my cursor over the spreadsheet, even over blank cells, I will get the evil finger of fate (so to speak) indicating that there is a hyperlink in that cell and yes, there is. If I click the cell, the site will be activated.
How do I keep these removed hyperlinks from returning.
I've also noticed that at anytime, while working on the sheet, everything flickers just as if the links are being re-populated. After a second or two the flickering stops and yes, the links are back.

I have a rather large userform with numerous textboxes and comboboxes. Data entered into the text and combo boxes is written to the next empty row of a sheet. As the data to be entered into the next row may not "all" vary from the last I would like to have the data I have last selected or entered remain in the textbox or comboboxes for the next. I attach an example for a better explaination.

I have a legacy Excel VB application with multiple sheets. When the
users tab from sheetA to sheetB the paste buffer is cleared. This might
be due to the fact that sheetB has Worksheet_Activate processing that
does some validation and refreshes a pivot table (on sheetB).
Is there a way to reserve and restore the contents of the paste buffer,
and make sure the user can actually paste values from sheetA to sheetB
(using either Ctrl-V or Edit-Paste)?

I am using VBA to create a word document (.docx). This word document contains plain text content controls as well as picture content controls. I then use VBA to automatically select a picture based on the code below
Code:
Set oCC = Word.ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTitle("TabPic").Item(1)
On Error GoTo TabErrorHandler
oCC.Range.InlineShapes.AddPicture Filename:="X:XFERANDREW-TDCD " & LblVL &
[Code].....
After the document has been closed down I try to open it again and I am told "The file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents."
When I click details it says "Unspecified error" and "Location: Part: /word/document.xml, Line: 2, Column: 0"
If I click ok it says "Word found unreadable content in "". Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you turst the source of this document, click Yes.
Clicking Yes opens the document with all the contents and it is now renamed to Document 1. If I click no it does not open.

I'm having a problem in a single line of code in which I'm using a Range Object to essentially select an area of cells whose contents I want cleared.
Here is the
Sheets(Left(c.Value, Len(c.Value) - 1)).Range(Cells(4, 2), " &:& ", Cells(Rows.Count, "b").End(xlUp).Offset(0, 9).Select).ClearContents
I want the range part to evaluate as (b4:whatever the last cell is before the first blank row).

Excel 2007 Conditional Formatting. I am trying to apply conditional formatting to a wide range of cells. I only want the rule to adjust the color and shading, under the FONT tab in the section below. Specifically, I do NOT want to adjust the number format (I have the user select the scaling and use VB to populate the number formatting). I accomplish this by removing the number formatting by going into the conditional formatting rule, clicking on format, and then on the first tab (Number) -- on the bottom right there is button to Clear.
This resolves the issue perfectly, and I can operate the report exactly as I would expect.
Unfortunately, when closing the report (after a save), and then re-opening, the conditional formatting number format is no longer cleared. Worse yet, because it no longer is cleared, the scaling VB doesn't work, unless I go back into conditional formatting rules, and go to the number tab, and click clear.
Screen shot of after re-opening, no changes:
Report looks terrible (not real data):

How to determine the correct formula for this requirement?
Assuming I have 2 individual excel files and an index excel file (in reality, there are more than hundreds of file). For index excel, once the user enter part number (eg. 1 or 2), the excel will look for the part number excel file and determine vlookup function.
The only problem I have here is I can not make the index file automatically add the part number shown on most left column into the required formula (replace the part number file section).
I tried use the indirect function but this require each file to be opened, which is not possible for actual use. I am looking for a function that can work in closed worksheet.

I am currently trying to create a spreadsheet whereby if I enter certain text in a cell in Column A on worksheet 1 that correlates with text in a cell in Column A on Worksheet 2, then the description in Column B in Worksheet 2 is entered into Column B on worksheet 1.
For example, if worksheet 2 has the following:
Column A Column B
XXXX PRODUCT 1
YYYY PRODUCT 2
and I enter XXXX in column A on worksheet 1, I want Column B on worksheet 1 to automatically enter PRODUCT 1.

multiple search match and replace content in a different column so for example
new workbook (look up table)
sku
search1
search2
[Code]....
so something like where you compare two tables and find and replace based on another cell that matches in my sku.. more details would be if the table column aren't exactly matching but the column header and the row header would match and fill or replace in the correct/corresponding cell is there a macro or vba to do this job in excel?

I have the names of companies in one column, and the amount they owe in cells in the column beside them. I then have a second list of companies that is a subset of the first. Is there a formula that would place the amount they owe in teh corresponding cell adjacent to the compny in the second list? I've attached a sample workbook, Full Company List in column A, amount owing in B, trimmed down list in D and ideally I'd like the corresponding values in E.

I have 2 worksheets, let's call them "Sheet1" and "sheet2".
Sheet 1 has 2 columns (A, and B)
Ie. "Sheet1:"
Col A, Col B
Red
Green Yes
Blue
Yellow
Orange Yes
For each entry in Column "B" that has a "Yes" value, I need to copy the color value in column "A" into the next available empty cell in "Sheet2" in column A.
"Sheet2"
Col A, Col B
Red 3
Blue 5
Yellow 6
Final Result:
Col A, Col B
Red 3
Blue 5
Yellow 6
Green
Orange
how to do this particular challenge? For Sheet2, I think I'll need a function to determine the first available blank cell in column A.

What I need to do is have a cell that will be say yellow until there is information put into this cell. The information could be in the format of text or numbers. The information would not always be the same so it would need to be yellow when there is no information in the cell and another colour or white when there is information in the cell.

This requires me to tab and delete through the sheet before starting the next entry and I am wondering if there is some way to auto clear the unlocked cells based on a single entry IE when we entered new data in the 1st field this would clear the unlocked cells and make them ready for new data?

I need a macro or formula that can parse a column of data and if it finds a specific string of text ,then it changes another cell on that row to zero. It can have multiple text variables but all return the same value. For Example,
if
artisan - matte - flat black
artisan - matte brushed gold
small - canvas - flat black
is found in a longer string of text
then it should change another cell on the same row to have a value of 0. Also i should mention that i need it to loop as it will be parsing through potentially thousands of rows.

I have a cell A1 in sheet2 linked cell A1 in sheet1 (simply A1='sheet1'!A1). A1 in sheet1 is a data validation drop down menu.
I want to clear the content of A2 in sheet 2 everytime the content of A1 in sheet2 changes/is updated. That is everytime the value of A1 in sheet1 is changed using the drop down menu.
I tried using a Worksheet_Change event macro (which I do not fully understand) but it won't work with a cell that updates from a calculation. It also doesn't work if triggered from a cell from another worksheet (I tried linking it to cell A1 on sheet1 in this case).
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("A1")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
Range("A2").ClearContents
End Sub
Any simple solution to clear the content of cell A2 in sheet2 when A1 in sheet2 updates?
