Move Between Input Cells By Keyboard

Aug 16, 2008

There are a series of input cells in a protected worksheet and when the user hits an enter, tab or arrow key, the selection cycles through them in order. The cycle also restarts when the mouse clicks one of the cells out of order. After I switch worksheets and return to the first worksheet with the code, first it says there is a "Compile Error: Sub or Function Not Defined" and the code "Call SetKeys" in Sheet1 is hilighted. When I ignore that and stop the debugger, there is a "Run-time error '13' Type mismatch" and the code line "If arrIndex > 0 And arrIndex < UBound(arr) Then" is highlighted.

My question is: why doesn't the code work after I switch worksheets? especially given that it works perfectly before I switch worksheets. (ie the file opens on sheet 1 and everything is perfect, click sheet 2 tab and back to sheet 1 - nothing works) I also have yet to figure out why it seems to be necessary to post the same code in both ThisWorkbook and Sheet1.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
'This code allows the user to change the unlocked cells, but protects each worksheet
Dim wSheet As Worksheet
For Each wSheet In Worksheets
wSheet.Protect Password:="mypassword", _
UserInterFaceOnly:=True
Next wSheet............................

Move Between Input Cells Only

Apr 6, 2008

I have designed a form for my wife to use in school to help teach fractions and decimals.

The children will enter the numerator into a cell (say D2) and the denominator into another cell (say D6) and the decimal equivalent is then displayed to 2 decimal places in a third merged cell (say C8 - E8).

What I would like to do is this:

When the worksheet opens, the only cell that I want the children to be able to enter data into is the first cell (ie D2). When they enter a value (say 1 for the numerator) I'd like the return key to move the data entry to the next cell (which is D6). After this, when they have entered another value (say 3 - they are invesigating thirds for example), I'd like the return key to move to the next numerator cell (which is H2), then denominator cell (H6) and so on.

How do I do this? I have never created forms or macros and I suspect that this is how to do this.

For the first set of fractions that they are investigating, thirds, I'd like to limit their data entry in the denominator cells only (D6, H6, L6, P6, etc) to 3 and reject any other number. Later in the worksheet, they will be investigating quarters, fifths and so on.

How do I do this? I don't want then to use any list or drop-down, simply to type a value into the cell and it be accepted (if it is a 3 when investigating thirds) if it is correct or simply ignored if it isn't. Is this possible?

way, especially if it involves anything complicated like macros. Being active on lots of forums it is quite depressing when I see that someone has answered a poster's question but the answer seems to either assume a high level of knowledge or tends to assume that certain steps are taken without actually stating them.

Limit Scroll Area - Code Activates Only On Mouse Or Keyboard Input

Apr 21, 2007

I have a worksheet that serves as a navigation page for the workbook and use the following code to restrict from scrolling off the viewable content. The problem is that the code doesn't kick in until either a click if the mouse or keyboard input. This initially leaves the worksheet open for scrolling until input is received.

How do I make this code activate when the wb is loaded? Code in the Thisworkbook module already makes the menu the visible sheet, and code limiting the scroll area is in the sheet module.

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
With ActiveSheet
.ScrollArea = "A1:L11"
End With
Range("A1").Activate
End Sub

I've also tried using "Range("A1").Select", but it doesn't work either. How can I get this to work correctly?

Clear Data Depending On User Input And Move Cells Forward Without Deleting Data Table

Oct 25, 2012

I have an month input in cells B2 (user can enter values from 1-5)

I then have a data table that has month 1,2,3,4,5 running across range G9:K9. the data is held in range G10:K19.

So if user types in 4 in B2, what should happen is that months 1,2,3 and 4 the data for these months should be cleared and data in month 5 moves forward into month 1.

So basically, anything left of the month entered is B2 should be cleared and replaced with anything right of the month in B2.

1
2
3
4
5

£11
£133
£29
£193
£100

VBA - Move To Next Blank Row After Input

Jan 23, 2014

I have a form on a separate tab where I input data then have a button that should update the data to a separate tab. Using the code snippet below, on a blank sheet it works but on the second input it ends and the next record input overwrites the second line and all subsequent input does the same. It basically stops at line two.

Code:

Sub Button7_Click()
Dim DateRecvd As Date, OccurDate As Date, SalesLine As String, OwnerLName As String, OwnerFName As String, RepID1 As Integer, RepID2 As Integer, MgrName As String, QAName As String, ContractNbr As String, Policy1 As Integer, Policy2 As Integer, Policy3 As Integer, Policy4 As Integer, Policy5 As Integer, Summary As String, ActionTaken As String, Outcome As String, Volume As Long, SiteNote As String

[Code]...

The Clear Form is used after entering a record and it works fine. I tried a few different things I found online but no luck, it always goes back to the second line and won't advance to the next empty row.

Keyboard Shortcut To Highlight All Cells In A Column From Bottom To Top

Jul 7, 2009

What is the best way to highlight all cells in a column from bottom to top?

For example, if I'm in column O, row 138, what keyboard shortcut would I need to select ONLY and ALL cells from the row I'm currently on, (in this example, 138) to row 1 and ONLY in that particular column?

Keep in mind that the next time I may be starting at row 1,200, it could be different everytime.

I tried everything I could think of..


CTRL+A
CTRL+SHIFT+A
CTRL+HOME
CTRL+SHIFT+HOME
CTRL+UP ARROW
CTRL+SHIFT+UP ARROW
CTRL+PAGE UP
CTRL+SHIFT+PAGE UP

and nothing worked to select everything in that column from the row I'm currently on, to row 1.

Jun 20, 2013

I copy/paste a good enough information and i like to separate these automated information into different colored rows using keyboard shortcuts. I can't use Conditional Formatting, because i have to investigate each piece of information before I color it a certain color.

For example: Color Purple, Green, And Red

Press Ctrl+1 = Color Purple
Press Ctrl+2 = Color Green
Press Ctrl+3 = Color Red

Input Daily Data - Variable Do Not Move In Formula

Jun 6, 2014

I have create an excel formula that I need to input data daily.

Every day, I need to insert a line and input my new data.

Below is my formula

=IF(V159="Skip","Go",IF(P160>0,IF(COUNTIF(C60:D154,">"&H159+3),"Good"),IF(COUNTIF(C60:D154,"<"&H159-3),"Good")))

The problem is that when I insert a line. Most of my variable will change according except C60:D154

As you can see below

V159 change to V160 = This is good

C60:D154 do not change accordingly. How can I make it change accordingly ?? Why it is not changing when I insert a line ?

=IF(V160="Skip","Go",IF(P161>0,IF(COUNTIF(C60:D154,">"&H160+3),"Good"),IF(COUNTIF(C60:D154,"<"&H160-3),"Good")))

Move All Used Cells On Each Row

Dec 21, 2006

I have rows of data starting in row 4.

I have row Headers taking up columns A:G.

My data, which is downloaded, can be anywhere between H4 and IV900.

I need a macro that will go to G4

Then do the equivalent of arrow right to the first cell containing data

Select that cell and all cells to the right of it

Copy the selected range

Cut and Paste it back to H4

Move to G5 and repeat all the way down the worksheet so that I end up with al of the data starting in column H rather than spread all over the worksheet.

Move Cells Containing Text

Apr 9, 2014

I have an Excel sheet with several columns of data, each containing the link to a website. To the far right of this data, I have a column called "Official Source" in which I'd like to copy over any website links containing the phrase "sec.gov" (if there are any, if not than leave the cell blank).

For example, if I have the following data in my sheet:

Column A Column B Column C
[URL].... [URL].... sec.gov/Ar

Than I would want the last source to move to column D -

Column A Column B Column C Column D
[URL].... [URL].... sec.gov/Ar

how to do this?

Data In Cells That Move

Feb 7, 2010

The attached workbook has formulas that will return data from category sections that will grow and contract over time.

While it tells me that the total price of the "Active Overdue Customers to be Scheduled" section is 4119...I would like to determine how many in that section also have "Dunn" under the "Company" column.

Every section does not have the "Company" column, and "Company" is located in different columns in different sections.

Move Cells To Another Worksheet

Aug 26, 2008

I have whats going to be a very large "Input" worksheet that has several headings of columns. One of these columns is "category" as in parts of a vehicle, i.e. steering, wheels, rod-ends and so on. Now what I would like to do, is once I type a new row of information in, to have the filter go through and copy said category row into another worksheet where I can have all of them separated on there own.

Here is a picture of my current spreadsheet. So basically I want to be able once I save the file, that it goes through and where it detects Rear-End in "B18" I would like it to select row 18, copy all of its cells and move them into the worksheet Rear-End

Move And Align Cells

Dec 17, 2009

I have a task that I need to perform every now and then. And even though I normally find my ways around in Excel, I can't find a working solution for this one.

I have a list of features that I need to match with another list and place them on the same rows in my sheet. The attached file contains 2 worksheets where "Before" shows my normal input, and "Wanted" shows what I need to do.

Cols A-E contains info for the first set of features, cols G and H is the cells I want to move. Please note that sometimes the G and H columns contains info that are not present in A-E, and then I need to move those features around as well. An example is present at the bottom of the "Wanted" sheet.

Refer To Cells That Move

Dec 7, 2006

In my current spreadsheet I use Offset to change the values of various cells. The problem is that if I make any changes to the columns it throws the whole offset thing off. So, instead of using offset to paste all the data is there an alternative that would work better?

I was thinking maybe I could name a column as a range and then have the cell in that row equal a value.

What solutions are there?

ActiveCell = TextBox1.Value
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1) = TextBox2.Value
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2) = ComboBox9.Value
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 3) = ComboBox2.Value
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 4) = ComboBox3.Value
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 5) = ComboBox11.Value

ActiveCell.Offset(0, 12) = ComboBox1.Value
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 13) = TextBox6.Value / 100
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 16) = TextBox4.Value
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 17) = TextBox5.Value
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 18) = CostBasis
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 19) = NumberOfShares
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 59) = DividendFreq

VBA (Keyboard Strokes)

Dec 14, 2006

I've programmed in many different forms of BASIC in my days, but I'm having too much trouble with VBA, and can't figure out if it's me or if it's the version of Excel I'm using (2002). I wrote a program in Excel, where if certain cells contain values other cell's calculations will become active. I want to click on a button that I created on the spreadsheet, then be able to select different keyboard strokes to activate these cells. I understand that there are 3 event codes that circle around this concept and that is KeyDown, KeyUp and KeyPress. Whenever I type in what MS Help told me to type in for these events, it always returns a runtime error.

Move Two Cells Down When Copying A Formula?

Sep 13, 2012

I got a sumif formula, where I sum the hours if a certain person is represented. =SUMIF(K12:R12;"TW";K11:R11) Hours in row 11 and the person in row 12.

The patern in my excel document is that every second row is hours and persons. Hours on odd row number and persons on even.

My problem is that when I want to copy my formula down, it goes one row down to =SUMIF(K13:R13;"TW";K12:R12) I want it to go two rows down to =SUMIF(K14:R14;"TW";K13:R13)

I've been trying to figure out how to use a formula that would enable me to copy/copy & move a range of cells right one column if a certain criteria is met.

Basically, if a criteria is met, I want to 'copy' everything from a row to another row, but offset it by one column (so that what was in, let's say, a1 would be in b2).

I've been tinkering with index(), if() and offset() in various combinations but think I must be missing something.
