I have 80 worksheets in my workbook, each worksheet contains a table which must be updated on the first day of each month. On each sheet I need vba to duplicate the value in cell A10 to replace the next zero value in column E; duplicate the value in cell F10 to replace the next zero value in column J. Then, continue the same operation on the next sheet.

View 4 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to use a macro that needs parmeters as part of an application.ontime instruction? - I am getting a macro cannot be found error message.
If I change the called macro so that parameters are not required, it is found OK (but obviously isn't doing what I want anymore!).
I reckon it is something to do with the quotations around the macro name
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, _

Application.OnTime Now() + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "Macro1"

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.
I have the following macro that runs every time the system clock's second changes to 07 seconds. I however want it to stop running at 09:47 am. I have the code to stop the timer also (given below) but I am unable to stop the loop at 09:47 am. How do I do that?
VB:
Sub Timer()With Workbooks("book3.xlsm").Sheets("Sheet1")
Range("B10:E10").ClearContents
End With
Application.OnTime DateAdd("n", 1, CDate(Left(Now, Len(Now) - 2) & "07")), "Timer"
End Sub

I have a real simple question about what command to enter in order to stop a macro. All the macro does is "press the F9 key" every second. I use a button to start the loop but I am unable to find a way to use another button to stop the process. Ive copied my macro below:
Sub Go()
Calculate
Application .OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "Go"
End Sub
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() "Go Button"
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "Go"
End Sub
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click() "Stop Button"
'????????????????????????
End Sub
Firstly you don't need to know anything about Bloomberg to answer this query, only that Bloomberg has various functions that take time to update.
The code Application.Run "RefreshEntireWorkbook" will update these functions but Application.OnTime (Now + TimeValue("00:00:25")), "RunList" is required to allow them time to get the data from the feed. However this only works if the refresh and wait commands are in a seperate function. So in simplified terms it must go like this in vba:
I am using Excel2010.
My sheet displays values collected from a database via an AddIn. The values are updated by pressing CTRL+G (AddIn function).
I have an OnTime macro running SendKeys "^G" to update the values every minute. When the values exceed a certain limit, a sound is played from a custom Alarm function.
This all works as long as the excel window is active.
But if excel is minimized or another window is opened, the values stop updating until Excel is active again.
When the values dont update the sound is not played and that defeats the purpose of the sheet.
I m trying to write a formula for my financial model. If anyone can take a stab at a solution. I'm trying to write a formula that will equally distribute revenue either over the next 1 month, 2 month or 3 month period depending on size of the deal.
Details:
Sales will fit in 1 of 3 categories. Less than 25k; between 25k & 100k; greater than 100k.
- if under $25K, recognize in next month (month N+ 1)
- $25K-100K, recognize in two equal parts in months N + 1 and N + 2
- over $100K, recognize in three equal parts over 3 months
N + 1, N + 2, N + 3 ...

Is there a way to set the ontime application to run even when excel is turned off? I'd like to be able to refresh a data table every morning at 6:30, even if excel is not on. Ideally, if even my computer isn't on. The code below works, but only if the sheet is open to the exact worksheet.
Option Explicit
Public RunWhen As Double
Public Const cRunWhat = "The_Sub"
Sub StartTimer()
RunWhen = TimeValue("09:54")

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: ....
In trying to set up a structure for a bigger and better worksheet, I've come up against a problem that doesn't make sense to me: When the Worksheet is activated, the startTimer sub is in fact run with the OnTime application. But I keep getting the error message "Macro MakeNote not found," when that macro is in fact right there.
The code is very simple:
Sub Worksheet_Activate()
startTimer
End Sub
Sub startTimer()
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "MakeNote"
End Sub
Sub MakeNote()
ActiveSheet.Cells(6, 5).Value = "YES"
End Sub
Sub TimerExpired()
checkNewBar
End Sub
Sub checkNewBar()
ActiveSheet.Cells(4, 1).Value = "123"
End Sub
A second question: witll the TimerExpired macro run all by itself when the Timer expires, or do I need to do something special ?
I am running a timer in XL using the Application .OnTime Method.
Everywhere I've looked tells me that the procedure to stop the timer is
Sub StopTimer()
On Error Resume Next
Application.OnTime earliesttime:=RunWhen, procedure:=cRunWhat, schedule:=False
End Sub
I have this code in with the timer, but when I hit F5 or go to Tools--->Macros--> and Run the StopTimer Macro the timer just keeps running.
how I can properly call this procedure and stop the timer?
how to repeat the following line?
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application .OnTime TimeValue("22:02:00"), "Email"
so that everyday it runs at the same time Everyday? At the moment i have to close the workbook at somepoint during the day then relaunch so that it picks this line up, when this eventually "goes live" it will not be monitored as closely as it does now during testing.
I'm using Application OnTime to fire a procedure every 30 mins. It works great, but the workbook tries to reopen itself when i close it (but not if i close excel entirely). I assume this is because I haven't stopped it anywhere. So I put a call to a procedure that has: Application.OnTime RunWhen, cRunWhat, , False
In the "Workbook_BeforeClose" event. This doesn't solve the problem. What am I missing?
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
StopTimer
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
StartTimer
End Sub
(module1)
Public RunWhen As Double
Public Const cRunIntervalSeconds = 1800 ' thirty mins
Public Const cRunWhat = "dothis"...............................
currently 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?
Basically, I'm doing a recorded macro for work where I take an export and manipulate the data to show differences between sales from last year and this year. Also comparing this months projected sales to avg of last 6 months and also against last years this month.
The problem I'm running into is in automating the this month sales for mid-month exports. I can do it individually but I can't find a formula that will do it. Data is in one cell per month, so ex. 130 sales this month so far. I need to have it convert that to projected sales for total month based on what day it currently is.
I just can't seem to get the syntax correct for setting or resetting a cell value using the OnTime schedule function. It looks like the cell value changes randomly and after several cycles it just runs non-stop very, very quickly and I have to use the ESC key to break out of the loop.
Here is my code:
VB:
Sub RunOnTime()
dTime = Now + TimeValue("00:00:10")
Application.OnTime dTime, "RunOnTime"
If Cells(1, 4).Value <= Cells(6, 2).Value Then
Cells(1, 4).Value = Cells(1, 4).Value + 1

I didn't receive a response to a previous post where I was trying to use a batch file to close and open a workbook at a scheduled time everyday. I was thinking about this problem over the weekend, and thought that it would probably be easier to just use a macro to close the file at a certain time everyday (if it is open) and then use a batch file to open the file a couple of minutes later.
I'm having problems with what I thought should be pretty simple though. I tried this to close the file at 5:15pm
How to correct the code below so that OnTime is cancelled when the workbook is closed?

I have a splash screen (user form) which displays fo a number of seconds. The UserForm_Activate routine uses Application.OnTime to run the KillSplash subroutine, which is defined in Module1. Thing is, I would like to move the "KillSplash" routine to the UserForm module. What should be the full name of KillSplash I need to pass to OnTime? What "trick" do I use to make "KillSplash" visible to Application.OnTime?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI 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 scheduled a task to open excel and when it does (at a certain time), a little sub is supposed to run (couple minutes later) via the OnTime Method located in the Workbook Open Event. There is one weird thing though....
1. When Excel opens automatically through Scheduled Task (and you see the clean white sheet WITH gridlines), Sub does NOT run (that is, my file is NOT even opening).
2. When I myself open Excel manually WITHOUT opening a new workbook (in other words, in front of you there will be grey area without gridlines), Sub runs perfectly (in other words, my file opens automatically and Sub performs whatever it is supposed to do).
i want vba to show a msgbox every 5 sec & it should start as soon as the file is opened. Below is the code & it works. Problem is, that when i close the file it immediately reopens and starts the "msgbox proess". Only if i close excel completely, this problem goes away (& thats not a very proffessional way to do it!!). Can someone pl look at this one & help ?

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
the following workbook open event which repeats a macro called "Refresh" every 30 minutes. However, there is another macro "tame_blph" that i wanna call at 12 midnight everyday.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Call tame_blph
NextTick = Now + TimeValue("00:30:00")
Application .OnTime NextTick, "Refresh", , True
End Sub
Is it even possible to have multiple Workbook open events and/or multiple NextTick or something?
how to automate my excel sheet i have got.
It has code which when you click the "Save" button it saves the document and then converts a copy as CSV with the same name.
I have been trying to automate this to run every 2 minutes but everything i have tried does not work.
I have tried using OnTime events but again does not work.
