I need a macro to run at a certain time on Wednesday's, and then a certain time on the other days.
I would like to use a cell to reference that time, but right now, I am just hard coding it, but I an not get it to run.
Ultimately what I am looking for is something like this: ....
with opening a workbook at a specific time and/or running a macro at a specific time.
View 12 Replies View Relatedcurrently i have this:
Sub StartCycleB()
ActiveWorkbook.UpdateLink Name:="c:/a/b/c/test.xls", Type:=xlExcelLinks
RunWhen = Now + TimeSerial(0, 15, 0)
Application .OnTime RunWhen, "MyMacro", , True
End Sub
Works fine. Its updating and refreshing a file every 15 minutes. When a cell in the test.xls changes to TRUE, my sheet picks it up and changes to TRUE also.
So here is the problem: Once my sheet changes to TRUE, another macro activates in my sheet. This macro will automatically activate every 15 minutes if value is TRUE. BUT the problem is i ONLY WANT TO ACTIVATE THIS MACRO ONCE a day IF the value in my sheet is TRUE. So in summary how do i activate a macro based on a TRUE value on a cell, to happen ONCE a day and then stop?
I am trying to use the application .ontime procedure to run a class method, but having a little trouble with what to use as my procedure name. Do I have to include the name of the class, or the name of the instantiation of the class, or what? Here is kind of what I have in the "myClass" class module:
Option Explicit
Private WithEvents m_cmdButton As MSForms.CommandButton
Private m_iTimer As Double
Private Sub m_cmdButton_MouseDown(ByVal Button As Integer, ByVal Shift As Integer, ByVal X As Single, ByVal Y As Single)
' Set the time with the long delay
m_iTimer = Now + TimeSerial(0, 0, I_TIMER_DELAY_LONG)
' Start the timer
Call Application.OnTime(earliesttime:=m_iTimer, procedure:="ClickAgain", schedule:=True)
End Sub
Private Sub ClickAgain()
Call MsgBox("ClickAgain successfully called.", , "Boo yeah!")
End Sub
I have checked and the MouseDown event is being registered: it will work if I use a procedure in a standard module rather than the class method"ClickAgain". (I am only including the code relevant to the "ontime" procedure. My actual class has other methods to deal with setting the control source for the command button & everything.)
I have 2 macros, each called by the other to keep updates fast as per below,
Sub Macro1()
Cells.Replace What:=",29", Replacement:=",30", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
Application .OnTime Now() + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "Macro2"
End Sub
Sub Macro2()
Cells.Replace What:=",30", Replacement:=",29", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
Application.OnTime Now() + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "Macro1"
End Sub
I need to create a separate macro I can run to permanently stop these two cycling. And allow me to use Excel. Then, when I wish for these to cycle again, I simply run that macro.
my wonderous spreadsheets have had a number of errors on them. One of them seems that the "autosave" VBA that we have been using seems to be hidden in memory. By this I mean that if I am working on this book and close it, on occassion the workbook tries to open itself again (it prompts for the password). Therefore I think something gets stuck "in memory" but I am not sure why it would act in this way?
The code is as follows:-
Public g_blnDate As Boolean
Public vartimer As Variant
Const TimeOut = 60 'in minutes
Sub Salva()
ActiveWorkbook.Save
Call Tempo
End Sub
I'm trying to get the Find and FindNext methods to work. Column C contains serial numbers and there's a chance that a serial number might appear more than once in the column. What I'm trying to do is get Excel to find the first occurance of the serial number, find what row it's on and then see if this matches the variable 'CurRowNo' (defined earlier in the code). If it doesn't I want it to look at the other occurances of the serial number, find what row they're on and see again if it matches CurRowNo.
The variable 'EngCount is the number of occurances of the serial number (also worked out earlier in the code). I've got the code below, but I get the error 'Method Range of Object Global Failed' on the FindNext line. I have no idea what this error means or why it's happening.
My workbook holds a month template and sheets for each month. I work on modifications in the template ,but would then like to update all the monthly worksheets.

If anyone has the inclination, please could you put me out of my misery and suggest what is going wrong, as I have been trying on and off for two weeks to rectify this. What disheartens me is, as I say, I have had no problems with this procedure up until a couple of weeks ago. It takes the ordering info for a particular day and pastes it into the correct day's sheet on the invoicing spreadsheet. Sometimes, when I re-run the procedure it then works......???
Sub Transfer_To_Invoicing()
Dim answer As Variant, active_workbook As Variant
day_num = Range("a127").Value
answer = MsgBox("Do you want to transfer " & Weekday(day_num) & "'s figures to the INVOICING SYSTEM now?", vbYesNo)
If answer vbYes Then Exit Sub
answer = MsgBox("Have you updated the values from the despatch sheets?", vbYesNo)
If answer vbYes Then Exit Sub

I have a UserForm (and associated code) to locate a specific entry in Column 'A' of a spreadsheet and insert a date, initials, and hyperlink to another file.
The basic code works fine, but did not account for the user entering a Job# that was not in the system, so I added an If/Else to account for this...
The additional code took the If (Job# not found) route every time...
Following many hours of searching this site and variations of the error handling code, I still can not get it to work.
So I'm asking for your assistance to point out why the error handling (based on other successful code found here) is not working for me.
'Insert Link
Private Sub CommandButton3_Click()
If TextBox1.Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Insert a Job#"
Exit Sub
ElseIf TextBox2.Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Insert Quoters Initials"
Exit Sub
ElseIf TextBox3.Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Insert Quote Date"
Exit Sub
The 'Find' part of the code is working, as the correct cell is selected after running the code... but it gives the error message, instead of executing the rest of the code...
If I remove the 'On Error Resume Next', it stops on the find block, where on inspection FindR = Nothing.
So if FindR does = Nothing, how did it manage to select the cell?
Asking for a row value to be returned if a string is found to exist in the sheet. Works great if it finds the value but I get the following error when the string isn't found:
Run Time Error '91':
Object Variable or With block variable not set.
Concept code follows. The commented strOCNumOF line contains the value that's found on the sheet. The uncommented line contains a value not found.
Sub find_test1()
Dim intFoundOnCur As Integer
Dim strOCNumOF As String
strOCNumOF = "AP4506"
'strOCNumOF = "BP6020"
intFoundOnCur = ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet. Cells.Find(What:=strOCNumOF, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, SearchOrder:=xlByRows).Row
End Sub
I keep getting a Method Range of object_Global Failed error in the following marked like of code.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

The error is:

Line it fails on:

Dim r As Range
Dim n As Long
Set r = Range("myRange")
For n = 1 To r.Rows.Count
If r.Cells(n, 1) = r.Cells(n + 1, 1) Then
MsgBox "Duplicate data in " & r.Cells(n + 1, 1).Address
End If
Next n

Questions:
1) 1st Dim statement, is this valid? I still get a little unsure- in the data type lists in the help file, the list file does not list things like Workbook, Worksheet Range.
2) Why is the error ocurring?
I am having trouble with a macro that is giving me the error Run-Time error 1004 (Paste Method of Worksheet Class Failed)
The code is

Sheets(2).Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
Range("A1").Select

Sheets("Main").Select

The macro is timing out on the ActiveSheet.Paste entry...The funny thing is that a number of us can get the macro to work and several of us are getting this error...I am thinking that it is a setting in excel that is causing this...
I'm attempting to do a backwards search, but I keep getting a mismatch error on the Find function and don't know why....
View 3 Replies View RelatedI encounter a runtime error '1004' if the "Invoices" sheet is not selected when I run this procedure. The last line of the code is one which is highlighted when I debug.

You'll notice that there are two other procedures (FindNew & InvoiceSequence) being called by this procedure. I don't think those have anything to do with the error, but I can provide the code for those if needed. Oh, and one other secondary question. To declare the ranges rngRaw & rngInvoices I pick the top-left cell of the data and then do:.....................
I have the following code written:
If InStr( Cells(i, 3).Value, "Other") > 0 Then _
Cells(i, 3).Replace What:="Other", Replacement:=Cells(i, 4).Value
This seems to work fine for the most part. However, if the value in Cells(i, 4) is too long, I seem to get a Run-time error '13': Type mismatch. Is there any way to rework this code so it can replace even if the string in Cells(i, 4).Value is too long?
I have searched the Forum for help on this error 91 but still cannot figure this out.
Below is a format macro I created. I have several ' Find' routines in here and at the beginning of each one I give it an 'On Error GoTo' type statement. This seems to work fine until it gets to a second error. I have moved various 'Find' routines around and it doesn't matter which order they are in, if there are two things it can't find, it gives the error 91 on the second.

If response = vbYes Then

End If
If response = vbNo Then

I have error trapping in place so if a find in a column returns no data the procedure continues, but the code breaks there anyway.
In Tools/Options/General/Error Trapping I have Break on Unhandled Errors checked.
I have changed my error trapping lables.
I have copied the procedure and renamed it.
I have a macro that opens a specified woorkbook that changes every month. There are formulas which are pasted to range I1 of the new workbook to calculate the totals on this sheet. Everytime i run the code though, I get an error that says "Select method of range class failed" and Range("I1").Select is apparently the error.

Macro has been working fine for ages suddenly have received this consistently?
It's not debugging to allow me to see the route of the problem.
i've googled and seen it's normally a use of select but can't see any issue in my code or understand why it would work for months and now stop.
note: also after i click Ok on the error the macro seems to continue running and data is pulled through. ...but this message comes up every time so it's questioning the reliability of the data it's pulling.

I found the following for something that I was searching for on the web.
Selection.Columns.PasteSpecial Paste:=8
My question is two fold, 1) What does the '8' mean? 2) Is there someplace that tells me what other numbers for PasteSpecial mean?
This solved a problem that I had when trying to do a PasteSpecial for Column Width. What I had been trying was the following:
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlColumnWidths, Operation:=xlNone, _
SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
But I would get the error run time error '1004', PasteSpecial method of Range class failed.
I start in my "Action Plan for For Single Market" worksheet and if I click on the Command Button I then want to read in a couple of variables, and jump to a second worksheet (called "Market Action Plans") where I then want to copy a range, and then paste it in another area in that same sheet.
I thought I had worked out what to do, but when I execute I get a "run-time error 1004" when the macro gets to the "Range("Updated_Results").Copy" line. Excel describes the error as "Method 'Range' of object '_Worksheet' failed'" - which might as well be a foreign language as far as I am concerned!

I am an occasional macro-creator and every now and again, I come across this type of problem where I can't get variables to be reconized, etc. I think it's because I don't understand enough about Private versus Public, and how to declare variables.
