Newly Created Tab Names Placed As Hyperlink On Content Sheet
May 11, 2006
I attach an example worksheet with the code I have thus far.
In my workbook I have other sheets, one of which changes and updates a specific one each time a new client's data is entered on said other sheet. Because I want to save the specific client's data and not lose it when another client's stuff is entered on this other sheet, I copy the sheet where the data is summarised (I called this sheet "Sheet to Copy From") to a newly inserted sheet and use Paste Special, Values Only to change all functions /f ormulae / Links ect to values.
I then change the name of the sheet to the name of the client.
I then use this sheet name / cell value to polulate a range on another sheet (Next Empty Cell) as a Hyperlink to the newly created sheet above. This sheet I called "Table of Contents".
how to code the hyperlink. Using Macro Recorder uses the specific case's names, but the Tab name to be used as Hyperlink value will always be the name of a new client,

I created with code to copy a template, hide that template, and pop up a box to rename the copy, I noticed she clicked "Cancel" on the InputBox. When she did, she received an error (400). What I would like to do is when the "Cancel" button is clicked, the newly created copy would be deleted. Is this possible?
Here is the code for my full "Create New Project" sheet procedure:
Sub CreateNewProject()
'This code will copy the Project Data sheet, hide it and then
'rename the new copy to the MSA number. Code also prompts user for
'MSA Number and fills that in on the form.
Dim RenameSheet As String
Dim oSheet As Worksheet
With Sheets("Project Data")
.Visible = -1
.Copy After:=Sheets("FHWA Quarterly Report")
End With...............

I originally posted this in the "Excel New Users forum" - i guess that was an error, but I'm very new (second post) and very new to VBA in general - so please be gentle!!
I've created a macro which opens a workbook, creates and renames a new worksheet, and moves it to the end of the workbook.
I then need to paste into this new worksheet a selection from another workbook.
How would I specify in the code that the selection needs to be pasted into the newly created tab?

The code I have so far is as follows:
Worksheets.Add.Name = Workbooks("SHEET1").Worksheets("monthly report").[p1]
ActiveSheet.Move _
After:=ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(ActiveWorkbook.Sheets.Count)
Windows("SHEET1.xls").Activate
Range("A1:N23").Select
Selection.Copy
However, I got a subscript out of range error pointing at the line of
Worksheets.Add.Name = .Worksheets("monthly report").[p1]

After programmatically creating a new activex checkbox, I want to create a sub for it's click event. I have given the object a name, and fortunately the code for it's click event is a one-line call of another sub, but how?
The sub would look like the following except be named after the new control (obviously), and yes, it is just the number in the name that changes:

My code in the first workbook generates a new workbook with a variable in the filename, then copies the cells from the first workbook to the newly created workbook. This code is working properly when used in a draft worksheet I use for testing. As soon as I put it in the master file, an error message pops up "Runtime error 1004 : select method of range class failed". Then the debug sends me to the line " Cells.Select ". What should I be looking for, why does my code work on one file but when i put it in another one it doesn't ?
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim line_counter As Long
Dim prm_line_value As Boolean
prm_line_value = False

prm_line_value = Sheets("Rate").Cells(1 + line_counter, 1).Value
line_counter = line_counter + 1
Loop Until prm_line_value = False
line_counter = line_counter - 1

Dim number_of_new_wb_needed As Integer
If line_counter < 5000 Then.....................

Using Excel 2010. I'm writing a macro that sets up a workbook to be used for estimating at the beginning of a project. In the code I need to create multiple tables (formerly known as "lists") in the workbook. Then later in the code I need to refer back to those newly created tables. Currently, the code that creates the table is part of a loop that creates the table on many different worksheets. The problem of course, is that I have to name the Table, and then it won't create a table of the same name on the next sheet. Then, later in the code, I need to make adjustments to the table that was just created before looping to the next sheet.
Is there a way to create a table without giving it a constant name? Or by giving it a name that builds off of other info in the sheet? For example, I would be good with the naming the table after the sheet name: "Sheet1_Table" or such.
Code:
Sub Auto_Open()
'
Dim sht As Worksheet
If Range("A1") = 1 Then
[Code].....

VB:
Sub RenameTabs()
For i = 1 To Sheets.Count
If Worksheets(i).Range("C1").Value <> "" Then
Sheets(i).Name = Worksheets(i).Range("C1").Value
End If
Next
End Sub
I change my tab names with the above but than my hyperlinks breaks.

I have the following macro, which is assigned to ctrl+shift+h to allow users to make a list and to insert hyperlinks to other sheets that have more details than the list can show:
Code:
Sub linker()
Dim strDocument As String
Dim strSheet As String
Dim strAddress As String
Dim strLink As String
[Code] .......
I was surprised to see that even if the contents of the active cell is not a valid sheet name in the target document, the link is still inserted without error. If the link is subsequently clicked, the target document will open and an "invalid reference" error box will appear.
Is there any way to check whether the contents of the cell constitutes a valid sheet name in the target workbook at the point at which the hyperlink is created, without opening up the target document?

I believe I have 99% of what I need. The code below has one bug. (See just the underlined text for a very quick overview. The rest is detail.)
My goal is to generate a TOC that:
1) has the VBA run from my Personal Workbook.
2) can be run in any worksheet of any open workbook.
3) can be run in a worksheet of any name.
4) will insert itself at the currently active cell.
5) has entries hyperlinking to the referenced worksheets - of any name.
Right now, I'm stuck with the last point. The macro below will generate the TOC at the currently active cell. The TOC will be hyperlinks to the referenced worksheets.
However, if the referenced worksheet contains a space, dash, or other special character then the generated hyperlink is broken. For example, if the referenced worksheet is "sheet1" then the hyperlink generated works just fine. However, if the referenced worksheet is "sheet-1" then the generated hyperlink doesn't work.
Sub IndexList()
Dim objSheet As Object
Dim intRow As Integer
Dim strCol As Integer
Set objSheet = Excel.Sheets
intRow = ActiveCell.Row 'Start writing in active row
strCol = ActiveCell.Column 'Start writing in active column
For Each objSheet In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
Cells(intRow, strCol).Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, Address:="", SubAddress:= _
objSheet.Name & "!A1", TextToDisplay:=objSheet.Name
intRow = intRow + 1
Next
End Sub

I would like to hyperlink the names in sheet 1 to the same names in sheet two. Is there a way I could do this using a formula rather that do each one by one?

I'm trying to simplify a spreadsheet i've been given by defining names for certain values. I'm using Excel 2013. Is there any way to have all of the newly defined names I've created for cells automatically be inserted into all of the formulas that exist in the spreadsheet?
Example.
Old formula in one sheet of a workbook looks up a cell in another sheet with the value of ='sheet1!A1
I've given the value of cell A1 in Sheet1 a name of dgwd.
How do I get every formula in the workbook that references 'sheet1!A1 to change the value within that formula to dgwd?

I have 100s of name ranges in my spreadsheet. I am using a series of drop down boxes for the user to select the info that they want to see. Based on the dropdown box, the macro "dynamically generates" a range name from which to pull the info.
For instance, if they Select Manager = Terry, Analyst 1, and Month = Jan, then the range name would be JanTA1
The if statement would dynamically create this name by concatenating the info
If manager = Terry
mnger = "TA"
if analyst = 1
anlyst = 1
if month = Jan
mnth = "Jan"
rangename = mnth & mnger & anlyst
So, I am dynamically creating the range name based on user selections...then to display it, I want to set the display cell = to the value
Range("display cell").Value = Range(rangename).Value
The problem is, I am getting an object error every time I try to refer to a range this way.
If I type:
Range("display cell").Value = Range("JanTA1").Value, it works

I work with data that varies in row numbers but is consisten in column width. I am trying to write code that will create a named range for the data but be flexible to expand or contract based on the amount of data that is pulled in. Below is the
Const lngLastPossRow As Long = 65536
Dim strDataRng As String
strDataRng = ActiveSheet.Name & "!R4C1:R" & Range("a" & lngLastPossRow).End(xlUp).Row & "C17"
Range(Selection, ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlLastCell)).Select
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:=("Data"), RefersToR1C1:= _
strDataRng
While the result creates a named range called "Data" , it does not allow me to reference and data in any formulas ( sumif's, etc). Can someone tell me what I am missing. It appears to be returning the wrong data type (string as opposed to range values).

I have a userform which creates a new sheet using TextBox2.value as the sheet name. Here is the code I am using and it works fine. Worksheets.Add(After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)).Name = TextBox2.Value
Here is the problem - After additional code is run on the newly created sheet I need to take the value (Which will be text) from cell AM6 of the newly created sheet and place it on an activecell on Sheet3. Seems simple enough but I do not know how to address this new sheet as I do not know what the name will be. Here is the code I have tried (and various renditions of it)
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=TextBox2.Text!R[-9]C[32]"
I do not want to specifically name the new sheet as many sheets could be created, unless you could tell me a way to do that.

This macro below is meant to search a sheet for a user selected value, select the entire row and copy it into a new sheet that has been created under the name of the user selected value. It will create said sheet, but isnt finding the value and/or copying the active cell row. Im not getting any errors so it has no issue with the coding itself, it just doesnt work, have i missed something obvious again?

-> In Excel Cell L4 to L9999, I would like to have Excel have that cell Hyperlinked of a Google search of the contents which were entered in that cell. (or, if that same cell can't be Hyperlinked, then a neighboring cell is OK)
-> So, for example, if cell L4 contained the word: "testing",
I would like to be able to click on that text in the cell to open a browser and take me to: [url]
...I hope this can be done without writing a macro (maybe by a formula instead?) BUT, if it's the only way of doing it, then yes, please, in that case, I would LOVE to know how to write/enter the macro.

Excel 2007
I have a few dozen pictures created when a macro runs. They all have unique names. I'd like to add comments to cells, where the cell.value decides which picture to pull. All the examples I've found online show how to do this if you have pictures saved on your hard drive by referencing the file path "c://mydocs/...blahblah/"
Is there a way to reference the pictures I've created/named with my macro?
Here's the snippet of code that creates the pictures and names them:
Code:
For i = 2 To Application.CountA(Sheets("Allocation").Rows(1))
Sheets("Allocation").Activate
Set rInput = Sheets("Allocation").Range(Cells(1, i), Cells(10, i))
sPicName = "_" & Sheets("Allocation").Cells(1, i) & "_"
sSheet = Sheets("Allocation").Cells(3, i)
dDate = Sheets("Allocation").Cells(5, i)
[Code] ......
Here are some examples that are close to what I'm looking for.

Two part question:
1) I'm relatively new to arrays, but what I need to do is generate a list of file names and the sheets within each one. I would like to use an array for this, but since I don't have much experience.... well....that's why I'm here. Can someone point me in the right direction?
2) And the second part of this.... I was planning on using the FileSystemObject to determine the files in a selected folder and loop through that list of files, opening each one and harvesting the required info (file name and all sheet names). Should I use the FSO or is there something built into Excel that might be better (and also limit the number of dependencies for this little "project" of mine).
