Somehow I dragged a minimized window in Excel so that the top bar (where you click to drag) is hidden off the screen and now I can't drag it back down.
I can maximize the window through a right mouse click on the task bar.
Alt Space does not enable the "move" function.
I have restarted excel, closed it through the "X" and through the task bar. I have rebooted. I have renamed my file.
Recently my friend forced Excel to close through Task Manager by Ending the Proccess... Since he did that, every .xls(x) file do not opens. No errors. Just Excel Icon on taskbar appears.... as it is minimized... But it doesn't minized.. Either this icon on a taskbar is minimized Excel icon, or this just an icon ....

I have the below code that hides some tool bars when the workbook is opened. If I min the screen, then max again the toolbars are back, is there a way to prevent this?
Code:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
On Error Resume Next
With Application
.DisplayFullScreen = False
.CommandBars("MyToolbar").Enabled = False
.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Enabled = True

I am using Excel2010.
My sheet displays values collected from a database via an AddIn. The values are updated by pressing CTRL+G (AddIn function).
I have an OnTime macro running SendKeys "^G" to update the values every minute. When the values exceed a certain limit, a sound is played from a custom Alarm function.
This all works as long as the excel window is active.
But if excel is minimized or another window is opened, the values stop updating until Excel is active again.
When the values dont update the sound is not played and that defeats the purpose of the sheet.
I have an Excel based application that needs to run with a screen resolution of 1024*768 in order to display correctly. Is it possible to use VBA to detect the users screen resolution. Then: If the screen resolution is not set to 1024*768 then resize Excel's main window to run at that width and height?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write some VB to draw a line shape and then move it across the screen. I have managed to draw the line and have used the following code to move it:
Set linetest = ActiveSheet.Shapes(1)
For iCount=1 To 100
linetest.Left = linetest.Left + 1
linetest.Top = linetest.Top + 1
Next
i) I can only actually see the line move if I run the code using the debugger and step through the loop. If I just run the code then I only see the end position of the line (note, this is not an issue with the calculation being too fast for Excel to display the line. I tried the code with a delay loop in it and it made no difference). I can get it to work by calculating the active sheet for each iteration of the loop, but this means I have no control over the speed of the movement; incidentally it moves very slowly).
ii) This seems a poor way to move the line. Is there anyway to move the start and end node of the line rather than using the left, top, width and height properties (i.e. can I get the old coordinates of the points and set them to different numbers)?
I am trying to do is move between the MultiPage using Next and Back Buttons. I have attached what I have acheived already which is the majority of the work. There's just one minor issue I'm trying to get around.
The back button is disabled when on page 1 and the next button disabled when on the last page, but when the 'Seal Viewer' is opened from the spreadsheet, it starts off on the first Page with the option available to go back which we obviously do not want Yet when we press next and then back the function works correctly.
Is there a way to move the sheet tabs from the bottom of the screen to the side?

I have a nice little matrix which looks up loans and tells me the status of various modules within them
It looks something like this:
Code:
=IFERROR(INDEX(AssignedLoans,MATCH($H$6&$D49,ModuleName&LoanNumbersList,0),8),"")
and it is an Array.
Now, it is working fine until it gets to row 50 then it stops returning values. What's up? There is no difference between the rows except for the loan number change (from D49 to D50...etc). I looked up the loan number in the source document and it's there, so it's not that the source document is missing the information.
I know this is a sooo basic question but I can not for the life of me remember how.....
when I am on a excel sheet I can not seem to move from quare to square qiththe arrow keys.
It just now takes me all the way to the left or all the way to the right and not from cell to cell from left to right.
I know its something rather simple yet I can not seem to figure this out.
I have no problem with this on 2003pro.
After minimizing my Excel form, I'm trying to re access it from the windows task bar. If I click on the Excel tab it shows me the 2 excel files I have open. I would normally just click on one of those and that sheet would be brought up, but I can't get either of them up - as soon as I click on one or other of them the window just minimizes again.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a layout something like the following:
A1
A2
A3
[Code]....
Where each (i.e., A1) represents a location. I have tried to use a coordinate system but this will not work for the back-to-back locations. (Assuming each location is 2 feet wide, For example A1 to C1 is 4 feet apart, not 2 feet (as Euclidean or rectilinear would calculate it as).
Would there be a way to incorporate an if statement for those locations that are back-to-back? As a rectilinear distance calculation would work as long as the locations are not part of the same "block".
Ultimately I am looking to have a matrix which contains all the distances between each location:
A1

View 5 Replies View RelatedAll data is located within one book. I have two sheets with material codes in each sheet which include pricing (existing and current)
Sheet1 (has existing material codes plus existing pricing) Has about 1200 lines
Sheet2 (has current material codes plus current pricing), has about 36000 lines
I need to cross check if the material code (taken from sheet1) are still available in sheet2, and if they are, copy the current price back to sheet1. The current price needs to be pasted back into sheet1 (next to the existing price). If the material code doesn't exist (for whatever reason, in sheet2), the program needs to move onto the next line and leave the current price for that material code blank. The program should finish once all the lines in sheet1 are completed. I have attached a sample of what I'm trying to do,
is there a way to stick a few row of cells together so that when i move one they all move.. i have some rows that when i sort them i want them to move together with the other ones..
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a certain macro which copies data from one file to the other. There are several target files (refering to a given month each) and one source file. The user chooses a month from a drop down list in the source file which modifies a certain cell. The value of this cell decides on which of the 12 target files will be opened to paste the data to. The macro also copies the value of a cell which refers to the current date (=TODAY()) This number is then compared with a the range (value between two pints in time: start and end date of a given month). All I need is some sort of a pop-up window with a header i.e. WARNING. and the window text: You are about to send the information to a file which does not refere to the current month, are you sure you want to perform this action" and two buttons YES and NO in case the value of the current date does not match the range set up by the starting and ending of a given month in the target file. The button YES would then do waht ever the code that was placed before the pop-up window said, save the aplication and close it, and the NO button would simply close the aplicatiown without saving it. Something like that:
Sub Export()
'the whole code describing the action to be taken
If Range("A1").Value >= Range("A3").Value And Range("A1").Value <= Range("A2").Value Then
'here the A1 cell refers to the current date and cells A2 and A3 to the start and the end date of the month
End Sub
i have a macro that performs the same search in many websites, opening a new ie window for any site. What i want now is opening a new tab in IE instead of a new window. To illustrate, here go some code:
VB:
Dim PartNo As String 'Declaro la cadena de texto que determina la busqueda
Public Sub BuscarPLCCenter()
Dim IE As InternetExplorer
[Code]....
I would like that all of these procedures opened a new IE tab to do the search, cause actually it opens like 15 windows at a time and is not user friendly enough.
I am using Excel 2003 and wish to make a tip message (pop-up like window perhaps) if a value of a particular cell is exceeded.

View 14 Replies View RelatedThere is a column with a formula and a list validation, and an adjacent hidden column with numbered ids. When moving into the list validation cell the Worksheet_Selection_Change event code saves information about the Target cell - value, address, formula. When a value has been obtained from the list the Worksheet_Change event code looks up a belonging id in a lookup table and put this in the hidden id cell, and puts the saved formula back into the list validation cell. This makes the sheet (or window) unmanagable.
When I move around the sheet I can see the cell name in the Name Box, but the sheet itself is not visible. The only way to display the sheet is to add a new window (Window - New Window), choose the first "frozen" window (Window - 1. window) and quit this window. Then the new window is ready for use, but of course with the same limitations as the newly quitted one. Ring a bell, someone?? The funny thing is that in this workbook I also use the same functionality in another sheet without any problems.
I'm looking for a way to use VBA to set the window size upon opening the workbook. When the document opens, there should be two windows, each taking up half the screen and each on a particular tab.
Currently, if I save the workbook with the window settings I want, when I open it, both windows are maximized. When I hit the restore button, they go back the settings with which they were saved, which is what I want it to look like as soon as it's opened. Also, a bonus would be for the code to determine the screen size, so it can fill the screen no matter what monitor/computer it's opened on.
I have 3 worksheets in a workbook. How can I have the view go to A2 and View that on each worksheet? I do a Range("A2").Select But, it still shows the window on another column - row.
View 2 Replies View Relatedi was recently upgraded to Excel 2003 and have found that whenever i open more than one workbook, it opens in a new window on the taskbar (similar to opening another application)...

View 9 Replies View RelatedI open up Excel by double clicking on a file, it opens but it just has a grey background and the file I opened is displayed as a small 1 inch stip in the top left - just a title bar with the windows maximise, minimise and close buttons.
What ever I click I can't see any of the cells!
I've built a macro to run a loop that opens excel files, prints certain sheets and closes them. I have the macro working - to some degree. here is my code (this is excel):
Sub RMPProducer()
OldPath = "S:RMBS_Performance_Analytics Analysis1 Staging Folder For Monthly Model Templates2007200704VVDeals"
Dim t As Workbook
Dim s As String
Dim a As Window
With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
.LookIn = OldPath
.SearchSubFolders = False
.Filename = "*.xls"
.MatchTextExactly = True
If .Execute() > 0 Then
For i = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count
s = .FoundFiles(i)
I have 2 problems. First problem is that I am trying to add a function to make the window close once its finished printing. This actually works - but it limits my loop iterations from i = 1 to 2 (so it only runs 2 times and I'm not exactly sure why). If I don't include the statement - this can run for up to 7 - 8 times (these are very large files) then excel runs out of memory. Unfortunately, i can't set the loop to run from i = anything other than one.
So What I would prefer is to be able to make the "ActiveWindow.close" command work - because this way I can run the entire loop. But I'm not sure how to. I tried window referencing, I tried adding a new active Window so when the file opens, its opening in the active window already, but nothing works.
Preferably, I need to be able to reference both windows, as my next macro will involve referencing 2 windows (one static - always open) and the other the loop above.
I have a spreadsheet that on open needs to open a 2nd spreadsheet minimised and delete 2 named sheets in the 2nd spreadsheet.
On close of the first spreadsheet it should then copy 2 sheets with the same name from itself into the 2nd spreadsheet.
This is to start a spreadsheet that will track project risks and issues that I will post further details for as other functions are required.
Heres a strange thing, My latest version of a spreadsheet i have design has got a small problem. When clicking on a cell, nothing appears in the edit window, and when you double click on the cell to edit the contents the data disappears.
This only happens on one sheet within a workbook of 7 pages. The werid thing is that it does not happen on the version before
Any ideas how this could of happened and is there a fix?
Is it possible to create a popup window that contains drawing objects?
I created a "form" with the objects, but I don't know how to use the form.
I want to have this image, or form, or whatever it is, to popup when the user clicks a cell. Is this possible without getting into programming?
Can it be hidden and then made visible when the cell is selected?
I have a workbook open. When I try to open a separate workbook, it opens already opened workbook (basically linking the workbooks as one). I want to have my workbooks on two separate screens this is preventing that. How to unlink these workbooks.
