Bring Excel Application Out Of Minimize Before Displaying Warning Message
May 27, 2014I am using Windows 7 and have a piece of code that brings up a warning message after 20 minutes to warn the user they have been in a workbook for too long.
If they have the Excel application window minimized, is there a way to get Excel to take the application out of minimized mode into max screen, before revealing the message.
Currently when the warning message activates, the excel icon just flashes in the start bar. Some users may not see this.
Here is the code I have so far:
[Code] ....
I have already tried simply adding a piece of code with maximize screen, however this doesn't seem to work.
Minimize Outlook
Feb 13, 2007I have vba code that opens Outlook so I can run code to send emails...
Application.ActivateMicrosoftApp (xlMicrosoftMail)
But I don't want it to be visible, I want it to be minimized.
If I try:
Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
olApp.WindowState = xlMinimized
I get an error "Object doesn't support this property or method" referring to:
olApp.WindowState = xlMinimized
I've tried:
Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
followed later with code to send emails,
Set objol = New Outlook.Application
Set objmail = objol.createitem(olmailitem)
With objmail
.To = EMTo
.cc = EMCC
.Subject = EMSubject
.Body = EMBody
.NoAging = True
.Attachments.Add EMFile
.Send
End With
But I get an error "You don't have appropriate permission to perform this operation" referring to:
Set objmail = objol.createitem(olmailitem)
Because of the way our network is designed, the only code that works to send emails is:
Application.ActivateMicrosoftApp (xlMicrosoftMail)
Set objol = New Outlook.Application
Set objmail = objol.createitem(olmailitem)
With objmail
.To = EMTo
.cc = EMCC
.Subject = EMSubject
.Body = EMBody
.NoAging = True
.Attachments.Add EMFile
.Send
End With
but Outlook remains open the whole time the emails are being sent until it's closed by code later on.
Is there a way to minimize outlook AND use the code above?

Minimize Workbook On Userform Launch
Oct 24, 2006Is there a way to minimize Excel when a userform is launched, so just the userform is showing? I've tried using "Application.WindowState = xlMinimized" in the UserForm initialization procedure, but it minimizes both the workbook/application and the UserForm. I can click on the Excel window on the taskbar and just the UserForm will display--which is the goal--but I'm hoping there's a way to do it automatically without needing to click the taskbar icon after it's minimized.

View 3 Replies View RelatedMinimize Macro File Size
Dec 18, 2007I have an excel file that is about 1,400 kB in size. This file is the backend for a complex model with many inputs, and I now want to build a front end for it using userforms and VBA. However, when i created the first userform, my excel filesize blew out to about 7,000 kB. When I added all of my userforms (about 16 of them because there are lots of inputs, organised into categories), the filesize grew to 77,000 kB.
I have tried everything to reduce file size, including clearing all unused cells, avoiding pivot tables of any sort, and have also exported then re-imported all of my VBA modules and userforms. But the situtation stays the same: no userforms or VBA and my filesize is about 1,400kB, add in all the userforms, and filesize is 77,000 kB. Is there a way to keep file size down with userforms, or is that just the way it is? Is the only way to keep file size down to have a single userform, all questions on that one form, perhaps with visible and invisible controls depending on the 'page' of questions being viewed?
Minimize Excel Window But Keep It Visible In Taskbar
Jun 27, 2014I'm working on an Excel workbook that is opened by a batch file, updates information, copy and pastes that information to PowerPoint, and closes itself after spending two minutes idle. This is all for an employee communication monitor that runs 24/7. However, I don't like that the Excel spreadsheet displays on the monitors for two minutes every time it opens and runs.
Right now I was using the bit of code below to minimize the workbook when it was done copying and pasting the information. It works fine for the monitors, but the application is not visible in the Taskbar.
Sub Workbook_Open()
...
Application.Visible = False
End Sub
Is there anyway to minimize the workbook while keeping the window visible in the taskbar?

Feb 22, 2009I would like to be able to automatically minimize the Excel 2007 ribbon on opening a particular workbook. My preference is to be able to apply that minimization to certain worksheets only, but if that's not possible then minimizing the ribbons on all sheets in the workbook will be ok.
Will I also need a BeforeClose code as well to reinstate the ribbon so that it is visible when opening subsequent workbooks?

Minimize File Size Of Macro-enable Workbook?
Sep 9, 2012I have a macro-enabled workbook, in sheet1 i have two columns Country and Codes, they are in column C and D respectively. I used vlookup formula in generating the codes of the countries pasted in column C, they are being looked-up in sheet2 in column C and D as well. I already have 100000+ rows in sheet 2 under column C and D that's why the file is now heavy. Is it possible to encode column C and D in sheet 2 but still can be looked-up? or is there any other way to minimize the file size.

View 3 Replies View RelatedMinimize Userform And Give Focus To Immediate Next Window When Button Clicked
May 10, 2014I currently have a small userform placed at the bottom right of the screen (with a command button on it) and this opens up on top of excel instances and other applications/windows and it is set so that you can't interact with anything except the userform.
I wanted to minimize the userform and give focus to immediate next window (can be excel or non excel applications) for 10 seconds and then activate/show the userform back again, when the "Button 1" on the userform is clicked.
I tried hiding the userform, but this doesn't give focus to the immediate next window. Below is the code
Private Sub Button_Click()
Me.Hide
PauseApp (10)
Me.Show
End Sub
I could only find answers for adding minimize and maximize buttons to userform.
When the button is clicked, it should perform
Step a - Minimize the userform
Step b - Give focus to the next immediate window behind the userform
Step c - Wait for 10 seconds
Step d - Bring back the userform its to state.

Open New Application
May 29, 2009I need a code to open a new Excel Application (Not just a workbook).

Usage In Application
Jun 26, 2009done some VBScript spreadsheet reporting involving basically inserting data and some formatting.
I need some advice on what approach to take with Excel on my current project. The basic goal is to scrape project requirements off a word doc and load them into Quality Center (a test management tool from HP, henceforth referred to as QC). I have an hta/vbs process that offers the user choices gleaned from the QC API, scrapes the word doc, and creates a spreadsheet with a row for each requirement and a column for each property a "requirement" has in QC. These values are a combination of data from the word doc and values selected by the user in the preceeding hta interface.
The reason for this Excel step in the process is that all the values chosen up to this point are generic for the entire project. But there are a few properties that will be requirement specific. So all the info is collected in Excel and the user is to then go through each row and choose the "target cycle" (which I pulled off QC earlier in the process and display in Excel as a dropdown list). The "Platform Folder" and the "Module Folder".
Ok, so with that backround, here is my quandry... In the hta interface the user selected all the "Platform Folders" the project will have requirements in. These are then presented in a dropdown in the Excel, so the user can choose which of these Platform Folders this specific requirement should be loaded into. What I need to do is then have the "Module Folders" to be a dropdown that is dependant on the "Platform folder" chosen.
This is difficult enough for me, creating a dynamic dependant dropdown that will be replicated on each row. I don't know exactly how to do this but feel I can probably figure it out with all the help offered on these MVP sites.
What I can't figure out is where to do this. Should I set up the lists, formulas, and control code dynamically? Can these dependant list derive their values from comma delimited lists (like I did the non-dependent lists) or must they be in a worksheet? The only way I see to make the dependent dropdown work correctly is to have it run off a worksheet event. Can worksheet event code be applied dynamically or do I need to have a "template" type workbook containing the code in the application's folder and use that instead of creating a new workbook at exe time? I still have to write the upload into QC code, and that will probably be a macro that the user will have to install into their personal.xls. Can the dependent dropdown code be installed in the same way even though it needs to be event driven? Another aspect is getting the data for the dropdown. I can either get the lists earlier in the process when I already have a connection to QC and pass it along, or I can connect to QC from Excel and get the values dynamically. I am assuming passing them in will be more efficient.
