I need some assistance in creating a MsgBox when an excel spreadsheet is opened and more specifically a particular sheet is opened. I'd like the Msgbox to say "Do not forget to select frequency in the blue shaded fields." I have read a guide which says just add a module in the spreadsheet eg.
Sub Msgbox ()
Msgbox "Do not forget to select frequency in the blue shaded fields."
End Sub
I want to randomly select letters from this distribution (to make random words) but I want the more frequent letters in the distribution to be selected more often so that the word I form have the same distribution. I have the feeling there is a simple solution to this but I couldn't see anything other than the frequency function that I thought I might be able to use. I could populate an array with letters present in numbers according to their frequency and then randomly select from it but is there a more elegant solution? .......

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook with sheet 1 called Support which is basically an input form. The second sheet is called Database.
I want to enter data into the form and via a macro copy the data to the database. I have followed a text book to the letter on how this is to be completed to the letter.
My problem is that when the data is written to the database some of the fields are blank. Using F8 I can step through the VB script which appears to select fields at random.
I have two slicers, say slicer 'F' that slices on fields 'x', 'y' and 'z' and slicer 'E' that slices on fields 'a', 'b', 'c'.
I select these values by using a very simple macro. For instance to select z in slicer "F", I have the following code:
With ActiveWorkbook.SlicerCaches("F")
.SlicerItems("x").Selected = False
.SlicerItems("y").Selected = False
.SlicerItems("z").Selected = True
End With
However, I want the selected fields to have more flexibility than which is possibly by coding them in VBA. Ideally, I would want to write the selected fields in a cell in Excel (also if there are more of them!), then let the macro retrieve these fields and use them to apply to the slicer. So I write in a cell slice on X and Z, the macro picks this up and performs this operation.
Is this possible?
I have a spreadsheet with a heap of raw data in it. I need to perform a search based on a customer name, then return certain columns from the raw data IF the customer name is matched in one column, AND a special flag name is matched in a second column. The customer name is always a single entry for the purpose of the query, however the special flag must be checked against a possible list of values in a table. I know this is hard to explain, and I can't add attachments to my posts, so I have created a sample document and placed in in dropbox:

View 10 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a formula that can display colors based on the strength of the margin of victory of a candidate, take these two examples for instance.
County
Frank
Cole
Dean
Total
MOV
MOV%
[Code]....
I want to be able to draw in the outline of these counties (or at least the cell proceeding the MOV%) displaying the color that corresponds with the winner of that county. The added twist would be to shade the color depending on the Margin of Victory (MOV) as well. The closer the vote, the lighter (or mixed?) the cell (or county) would be. If it could be at all possible I would really be cool to mix both colors so that a result 100% for one candidate would get a color 100% pure while a 17% MOV would get a color 17% more of the winning candidate than of the loser (or losers) colors. I don't think a VBA is necessary for this one.
Is there a way of establishing what the color of a shaded cell?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am running into a roadblock, I have added an auto filter to my spread sheet, however now when I use it the filters I select are not showing up on the column that is being filtered. For some reason they are 2 -10 colums over, a totally seprate column it is kinda weird.

View 2 Replies View RelatedThis might be a simple answer but... if A1 had the date 1-Jan-2010, what formula would I used, within conditional formatting, to make that cell turn blue once 90 has passed? So the cell should turn blue on 1-Apr-2010.
View 10 Replies View RelatedWhen using the autofilter, the drop-down arrow turns blue in color, i.e., when some filter citerion is being used, the small down-arrow turns a different color as a way of informing the user that a filter is in place. Is there a way to control the color of this? Currently, mine turns blue, but it would be more useful if I could change it to a brilliant color in order to make it contrast more with the default black. Blue is too difficult to be distinguished by my eyes. The autofilter is turned on via a macro. If there a line of code that controls the color.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have the total sales for a company. Then I have four specific segments that fall under those sales. Two out of the four segments I have exact sales figures for. The other two segments I just have the year-end sales and the dollar increase in each quarter. Is there a way to solve in excel for the missing quarters. So each of the four segments would have to add up to the total sales for both the quarter and the year. I've attached my example spreadsheet too. There are two cells missing highlighted in blue but i'm going to try to obtain that data. provided i fill in those two blanks, is there way to back into the rest of this spreadsheet?

I have tried to define an alternative start-up folder (my goal is to have a PUBLIC.XLSB to store Macros every one can use)
BUT: When I do this, Excel does not start with any open workbook anymore. It starts with a blue background, and need to click "New" first for a workbook to open and work in.
How do I avoid this? One solution that would work, but requires the user to have Macros activated, is to add a workbook during the opening of Excel, but I would like to avoid this.
Does anyone know how to use a macro to make a cell background blank if it is not orange or dark blue?
