I have a macro attached on Sample 01 that outputs a couple files after a certain date. The problem is the date that it choses is always "todays" date and I want to be able to change the date, the cell that I need to be able to change is cell c2. The problem is the rest of the formulas in the cells change to number format and don't stay in date format.
how to add code to a button. I think I've more or less solved my own problem with merging the data of two spreadsheets together (not as cleanly as I'd like of coarse), but the problem is the person I'm going to train to use this spreadsheet is not very computer savvy and this needs to be as easy as possible. So I want them to just be able to click 3 buttons and be done with the process.
I know that I can use my own best judgment to devise a consistent naming system, but I want to know if there is a community standard already.
I typically use the RVBA conventions for variable/object naming, but there doesn't seem to be a provision for the items above?
In keeping with the convention, I figured wkb and wks handles the 1st 2 (unless you all specify otherwise), but I have seen a few for projects and modules:
Projects: vbaProject, prjProject
Modules: MModule, modModule, basModule
Additionally, RVBA calls for CamelCase to be used to name Subs and variables, but I have been using a mixture of Caps and Underscores for these other items, whether it be the Customer or Code Name (I capitalize Functions to make them seem native).
We utilize a shared spreadsheet in our department named "Arrangement Requests". From time to time and seemingly very random the sheet renames itself. When this happens anyone adding information to it becomes unable to save since the original "no longer exists".
This causes problems because everything we do is in real time and expected to be viewed by all as soon as save has been indicated.
I have code in my macro that outputs a radio button for every project that is entered into the database. All radio buttons are part of the same group. I know how to give the radio button an caption name but I do not know how to give the radiobutton an actual name that I can call to. How can I do this in excel macros?
I am imagining a spreadsheet with the equivalent of an info button in each cell of column A. The idea is the user clicks the button to open a User Form containing additional info about the entitity represented by values on that row.
E.g., Row 1 is labels, row 2 is all about Bob, 3 is about Jane, 4 is about Freddy. If the user clicks the info button on row 3 then a user form opens up and displays additonal info about Jane.
I am wondering if there is a way for VB to identify which row the clicked button was on without having to write individual code for each button telling VB which row the button was on.
I am hoping there is some form button property I can reference or interrogate which will give me a cell address; a button.position property or similar. This will obviously save me a lot of coding if VB can dynamically determine which row is being interrogated as there will be a couple of hundred of these to start with, potentially thousands. (I realise Access is a better solution for database interrogation, but I have to work with excel at present).
Ultimately, the user form that the button calls up will have a list box on it and I want the list box to default to the entity on that row, and allow the user to browse the other entities if they want to.
If there isn't a solution for this I will just have a single info button for the users to click that opens the user form and then they can select the entity from a list box. But I would like to offer the "intelligent display" option but don't relish coding the equivalent of several hundred "You clicked button four hundred and seventy six, default to info card for bert".
1) We need the Input screen to auto clear the fields once the " Save " button has been pressed and data transfered to the appropriate tracking sheet
2) We want to ensure that if any of the Red cells are empty the " Save " button will give an error ( one complication If the "Transfer Type" highlighted in Blue has an entry " either STD/ISD/ESP " then " Call Purpose " needs to be mandatory
3) somehow the information on the "Comment " field is not getting captured
4) If possible we want a warning indicator if two rows in a tracking sheet ( example London ) are the same based on Coloums B to I ( except C )
5) Is there any possibility to give a pop calender in the " scheduled date " section of Input screen (Row 33)
Using excel 2003. Cannot insert command button on a spreadsheet we have. Almost all icons in the control toolbox are unavailable when Im on this specific spreadsheet. Any new documents I open work fine. Is there some kind of protected spreadsheet that wouldnt allow for a button, picture, textbox label to be inserted??? I didnt make the original sheet but am just editing and improving it.
I would really appreciate any advice you could give, I have attempted to attach a jpg showing the greyed out icons in my controltool box
I have an excel sheet that has 3 command buttons on it, i am wanting to open a saved excel sheet that i have on my shared drive from the command button. I know the path of the saved file but how do i get the button to open this file?
As well as this i this i also have another command button what i want to open another sheet in the excel document with the command buttons.
I have built a Form which displays data from a spreadsheet. The user opens the form by clicking on a command button from the spreadsheet. The Form initially opens with the data from Row 4 of the spreadsheet (because this is the first row of the spreadsheet which contains the data for the form). The user can then sequentially access other rows in the spreadsheet by clicking on buttons in the Form which advance the extraction by one row.
I would like to add a command button to each row of the spreadsheet that would open up the Form and set the values in the Form to the same row which the command sits on.
I want a Macro that I would like to assign it to Control Button on Spreadsheet 1. When the user clicks on this Button only "Selected data" i.e. Cells A3, B4, C5, E5 will be transferred to Spreadsheet 2. The data transferred into Spreadsheet 2 should be inserted in the first available row and hence not override other data. Also, I have a question, both files will be sitting on the same shared network path however,for the update to happen to we need to have both files opened at the same time? If yes can we design something to update Spreadsheet 2 without having it opened?
I have made a userform with some code in it that I would like to be on the spreadsheet itself instead of a user form? How is this done? The problem is getting the below code to work at spreadsheet level since I did not write the code below. I have the button the spreadsheet, but I don't know how to see the name of the button or assign the below command to the button.
I need a macro to copy data from the two combo boxes that appear on the spreadsheet and place the data into cell A for the first combo box and cell B for the second combo box.
In MS Excel 2011 for Macintosh can I assign a macro to an object, such that if the user clicks the object it runs the macro? That is creating a button on the spreadsheet that will execute a macro.
I insert a button in spreadsheet, when I click this button a userform appears with place to input value. I would like to check the entire column (maybe < 100 rows), if there is number exceed the input, then disply that ROW in another sheet.
I have two spreadsheets of data I export regularly from an outside source. I want to consolidate the data from these two sheets into one large sheet with all the data in a more concise form bringing in only the data related to certain parts I am conducting analysis on. I have a list of these parts already. My first thought on how to do this would be to use the list in an entry for an input box and have that list be the index for a for loop in which i searched for a part code, copied the entire corresponding row, and pasted it back into the master sheet. I have gone through and tried to do this but I am running into problems because sometimes I have multiple rows of data that correspond to a single part number. I have attached a template of the way that the data should look in the master file with the multiple rows of details that correspond to just one part entry.
What i would need is a script so that it doesn't look at those specific cells but a range of cells and every time the button is clicked it will fall into the first empty cells.
So example when button is clicked Case 1 if cells C242 has something look at cell C243 If cell C243 has something look at cell C244 If cell C244 has nothing then enter data that goes with that button. I have around 6 to 7 different buttons.
I have a sample spreadsheet (uploaded to this thread) in which I have 10 command buttons named 'Video 1' to 'Video 10'. Next to these buttons is a Windows Media Player Object. I require the code that upon clicking any of the video command buttons, the relevant video is opened and shown in the windows media object within the same sheet (sheet1).
I'm sure the code for each button will be the same apart from the cmd button reference number/name and the link to the file to be played.
If we assume all the videos are called as per their buttons i.e. Video 1.wmv, Video 2.wmv ... Video 10.wmv; and the location of these files is under 'C:Films', can someone post up some code for button 'Video 1' making it clear which variables to change for linking to the different files.
I am trying to code a macro to run down through a column and hide the row if it finds a cetain marker (i.e. the letter "n") in the column, and then move onto the next one.
My spreadsheet calculates the date on a daily basis.
I would like to create a code in my spreadsheet which uses the year and month in question.
First, 2006 is is designated as a "3" 2007 "4" 2008 "5" 2009 "6" etc
Don't worry about anything prior to 2006.
Next, the months are represented by single digits. So, January = 1, February = 2, March = 3, April =4, etc. September is 9, and October = 10 but all the numbers over 9 have to be reduced to a single digit, so October = 1+0=1, November =1+1= 2, December =1+2= 3.
Now, the formula for the Month is:
Year + current Month
So, May 2007 = 4 + 5 = 9 June 2007 = 4 + 6 = 10 = 1 July 2007 = 4 + 7 = 11 = 2, January 2008 = 5 + 1 = 6, etc
Is there a way of coding a macro in VBA that allows you, with one macro, to enter text in one cell and at the same time enter a value to the cell on it's right?
I don't want to name the cells, but I wondered if you could add to the code a piece of code that basically said "Select the cell to this cell's right and add the value x".
I have made this vba to go out and look at 2 different locations which contain simular folder names.
The script then writes the folder names in Column A, followed by the Size of both the folders from the 2 locations. The script is comparing the second location folder name to what the first process put in Column A so the folder names will be aligned with the file sizes. It is also converting the file sizes from bytes to the most appropriate one.
The problem I am having here, is once I put the second part in for the second folder, the script is either taking forver (More than an hour) or is freezing. So I am not sure if I put it in a loop somewhere or what exactly is happening. I am just wondering if I can get some help troubleshooting and optimizing this code....
How it is possible to lock the VBA coding and Modules? I mean when Some one want to view VBA coding the Password window should not appear, istead of that a message box appears with message something like "Not viewable"
I have a drop down box with the 10 different shifts we run here at my work. Ie - Daytime (0700-1500), Nightime (1500-2300) etc. I have these on a drop box as stated earlier (Cell 6) - and want to code a selection from within the box, to effect Cell 7 with the approriate hours worked depending on what I selected in Cell 6.
I am looking to create coding that once stock gets to a particular level a text box pops up to alert the user that more stock needs to be ordered and ideally I would like once the user selects ok for it to take them directly to the appropriate email template.
However, I don't want the text box to come up while we are waiting on the stock to be ordered.
i.e our current minimum stock level before placing our next order is 10,000 units. Order is placed and can be received within 10 - 14 days. During this time our 10,000 units will be used but I don't want an alert to pop up to remind the user to place an order as this action will already have been carried out.
I'm trying to write a code which would place formulas in the row just below the my range (normally a matrix of figures) to sum the column in that just above that. Here's what I've got so far but it doesn't work.
I have placed the following code in my spreadsheet but it's not working!
the code after option explicit (now at the bottom) works, (thanks to Andy on here!) but all the disabling the right click and cut/copy/paste etc doesn't.
when the accounts exported to excel, all the tabs shown in the file are generated. However, i need to change tab '3' to tab '10' name to the name stated in tab 'menu'. eg tab 1 need to be renamed as 'BB' (not BB/Bunut), tab 2 to 'GEN' (not GEN/General), etc. All must be capital letter.
