I have used conditional formatting, by which cells in a column (Column D) would either have "Text1" or "Text2" or "Text3". VB code so that macro runs a check on 'Column D' and if any cell contains "Text3", a pop-up appears with message "Text3 is there"

I'm sure there must be a way to dimension a string and format it for use in a MsgBox, but I have no clue how to do the initial formatting; any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
FYI - something along the lines of...
Dim S as String
S = "This part of the string is bold and italicized, and this part is not"
MsgBox S, vbInformation, "My Title"
I believe this would be a very simple query for some but I am a complete novice in VBa and am using a msgbox in one of my file but I need to split the message text into multiple lines but I do not know how to do the same.

In one of my spreadsheets users can see the active period on multiple worksheets
All have cell references to the 1st worksheet (cell B5). I would like 2 things:
1. If users change one of the reference cells on the other worksheets I would like a msgbox to appear
2. After clicking the msgbox away I would like the "old" cell contents (the referenece) to be restored.
I have a formulae in cell C1 (looks up A1, B1). I want to have a msgbox come up when the value in cell C1 is either #VALUE! / #N/A / any other error. So: if error.type in (1 - 7), want error box. Else if error.type = #N/A, no error box!

I am trying to assigned the values of two adjacent cell in a msgbox (columns AE and AF) as it is to far away for me to scroll and hiding the other columns will cause me to unhid it when I need to enter some information on it.
What I want to do, is when I double click activecell in column B, msgbox will pop and tell me the values nested in the same row under columns AE and AF (contract start date is : in column AE, contract end date : in column AF)
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
MsgBox "Contract Start Date" & ActiveCell.Row.Offset(0, 30).Value & "Contract Start Date" & ActiveCell.Row.Offset(0, 31).Value
End Sub
Cell C1 contains the words "last made" then a space then a date (which changes daily, but that's not relevant to this) e.g. "last made 25/10/2013".
I am trying to create a message box (on opening - I'm OK with that part) with the following message and so far I have got this:
MsgBox "You last did this on " & Sheet1.Range("C1").Value, vbInformation & vbOKOnly, "Information"
However, this gives "You last did this on last made 25/10/2013"
I want the message box to ignore the "last made " so it just says "You last did this on + the date shown in the cell, without the words. I need to keep the words "last made" in the cell.
I have the following code, that I found on this forum, in my worksheet change event.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Static old_value As Variant
If Sheet1.Range("C5").Value <> old_value Then
'a change has occured in cell C5 so do your processing....
MsgBox "Changing 5"
old_value = Sheet1.Range("C5")
End If.............................
I am trying to pop open a messagebox if a cells interior color index = 3 in a named range.

End If
End Sub
The user enters data into Column E on Sheet1 and i want my code to display a pop-up box when a cell's value exceeds 500. I've tried the two codes below which i thought would work as Excel didn't highlight any breaks when i wrote the code, but no pop-up box is being generated when values > 500.
ATTEMPT 1:
Private Sub Threshold_Check2(ByVal Target As range)
Dim cell As range
For Each cell In ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Columns(5).Cells
If cell.Value > 500 Then
MsgBox "Value within 15% of Threshold"
Next cell
End Sub
ATTEMPT 2:
Sub Threshold_Check(ByVal Target As range)
Set Target = range("E1:E150")
For Each cell In range("E1:E150")
If Target.Value > 500# Then
MsgBox "Value within 15% of Threshold"
End If
End Sub
I would like a sub (Like a Private Sub) that would automatically activate when certain text is pasted into the sheet.
Data is pasted to this spreadsheet starting on row 27 and can be several hundred rows of data.
Column O (15) is for Abbreviated States i.e. TX, ID, WA, etc.
If in column O "PR" is pasted then ...
1. Msgbox ("Alert")
2. Color the cell - Interior.ColorIndex = 46 'Orange
Triggering a message box. one of the worksheets in my workbook is called Update Comments - this is a sheet that contains data in the following format (headers)

Im looking for code for a button that asks for a Record number, and it will delete the record. But the record number is written in cells as 'Record No.1' 'Record No.2' etc. But i want the messagebox to ask for a single number and it would delete that record. Now the position of the records is what will be the difficult bit about this code, but it has a pattern.
For Record No.1 i need deleting cells C2:J100
For Record No.2 i need deleting cells L2:S100
For Record No.3 i need deleting cells U2:AB100
If anyone could give me a bit of code that works for these 3 then i could waste a load of time filling the rest of them out.
I have searched the 'net and read MSDN msgbox but I cant find what I am looking for. Maybe msgbox is not the correct function to be focusing on?? I want a message box to ask a question, and the answer is dumped into a variable, much like you can do with yes/no/cancel, but (much like a pop-up textbox) I want to be able to respond with text in a textbox. [This of course is part of my Excel spreadsheet]
(I think with C++ it was something like "msgbox = ?$-" or something like that, but I don't know what to look for with VB.)
I do not know if I have this written correctly, I would like to have the sub - Retro run whenever some one opens this worksheet - "FORM". The retro is also suppose to test cell H12 to see if it is blank before running the msgbox.

View 5 Replies View RelatedTrying to create a button that, once clicked performs the following task:
Checks whether the text in a cell in the column X2:X40 matches the text in a cell in the Range A2:U14.
If it does, the formatting of the cell in X2:X40 (eg background) must change to match that of the corresponding cell in A2:U14.
Only 1 cell in the range will match 1 cell in the column
For example:
Before click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a clear background
During click:
matches these cells
changes X4 so that it also has a yellow background
After click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
I have 2 tabs in a 2013 workbook. Inventory Receipts and lookups. One of the Data verification lookups I have is a drop down list in each cell in Column B (eg: Cat, Dog, Mouse) In the lookups tab I have another cell range containing the sounds (eg: Meow, Bark, Squeak).
What I am trying to acheive is, if B2 contains Cat, then return Meow in B3, if B2 contains Dog then return bark in b3 and if B2 contains Mouse return squeak in B3. Ideally I would like the formula to return the text from my lookup sheet (eg: 'Lookups'!C2,'Lookups'!C3,'Lookups'!C4). So depending on which option they choose from my animal drop down list .. the correct noise would automatically fill in.
I have four cells that contain text. All have connected check boxes with TRUE FALSE.
I need to be able to select anyone one of these cells with a check box, and have it's text appear in one separate cell eg: A1.
I have no issue connecting check boxes etc. I have no issue reproducing the text from any of these cells into multiple cells with a check box. But they have to be selectable and reproducing in one cell only (eg"A1").
As per title, I am trying to compare a column of text cells which contain "Yes" or are empty and a columns of numbers. If they are "Yes" and "1" on the same row, I want to output an "OK" message. Excel seems happy with the following code but it does not work and returns an empty cell if the two conditions are true.
[Code] .....
Here's an interesting one:
A1 contains a text string which is both bold and unbold (
B1 is blank
I need a macro which scans the cells with text and copies the BOLD portions of the text string into the adjacent cell.
Example:
A1
The sky is blue
Macro is run
B1
sky blue
