Open PDF File On Cell Click
Jul 27, 2007
I use Excel to track all purchase orders for my company. Is there a way to just click on the purchase order number in its cell and have it find and open the purchase order .pdf file that I have saved on the server. The file name is the same as the purchase order number. I do not want to use hyperlinks because there are over 11,000 files I would have to link to. I think it would be easier for me to just select the cell and have the information in the cell be the search name.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
MsgBox "Insert Text Here" , vbOKCancel
End Sub
What I would like to do is have a MsgBox open up that states this file is confidential and you click 'I Agree' button, or a cancel "I Decline"
I do not want the spreadsheet to be visible until they click on 'I Agree' button, and then if they click cancel, the Excel closes.
This is not a huge security issue, just a reminder for the Top Brass not to email out the file. This is for looks and show only

I am trying to make it so that when you double-click in a cell in column A, a message box opens populated with the text string in the corresponding cell (same row) in column Z. Seems to me like it should be easy enough, but despite spending the last hour searching for clues, I can't seem to figure it out.

I have spreadsheet with client names. I'd like to build logic that will open a form with client information when a user double-clicks on the client name. But I have a couple of problems.
- First, I'd like to protect the sheet and hide the formulas. But when I protect the sheet, I get the "the cell or chart you are trying to change is protected" error when I double click the protected cell.
- If I deselect the "Select Locked Cells" options when I protect the sheet, I no longer have the ability to double-click on the cell.
how I can double click on a cell yet not allow the user to edit the cell (or see the formula)?

I have attached an example spreadsheet to describe what I am working with. I was wondering if there is an easy way to have it so that everything in Column A is hyper linked to the ship bill file. This list can exceed over 1000 and to hyper link each line is too much, is there an automatic way to do this? For example. I would like the value '00001 in cell A2, to be hyper linked to the file "Shipping Bill - 00001" So that I can just click on the link and open up the file. The shipping bill files are in the same folder as the example spreadsheet.

What I'd like to do is to enter a surname into a cell, then click a button that will open the employee file (.xls) using the surname in

I am using the following code to open an existing file whose name is in cell A1. I want to modify the code so that if the spreadsheet does not exist, a template (Costing.xlt), in the same director, is opened and then saved with the name in cell A1.

I seem to have broken something!. Whenever I double-click to open an Excel file (.xls files are associated correctly), Excel opens, but nothing happens. That status bar says "Ready," but my workbook never appears.
If I do a File-> Open within Excel, then I am able to open the workbook. I have no idea what is going on. This occurs for all Excel files whether they contain macros or not.

I have a cell that is pulling data from a separate file, no problem there. However, I want the name of one of the folders within that path to change monthly (eg. by monthly name). How can I make a file path incorporate a cell link within a filepath (eg. instead of it saying 'Aug 06' I want it to refer to cell A1 which reads 'Aug 06').

I would like to run a macro that is going to open a file (Test.xls) Simple so far....
However, this file is 1. stored every month in a different folder (eg: 200709,200710, etc..) and the file is named according to the month (eg: Test09.xls, Test10.xls, etc...)
In my excel book, I did created two cells which I already use to save a document according to those cells. One cell with Acct Period (200710) and another one with the month (10).
I have tried the following formula with no success:
OpenWorkbook "\pathpathpath" & Range("Accout Period") & "Test" & Range("Month") & ".xls"

I have a User Form that I am trying to open with a button click. I made a copy of one workbook with a new name. The Buttons and Macros were all copied as well. I modified the old Userform so that I can release Version 2 of the Userform, and now when I click on the button in Excel, I get the following error : Object doesn't support this property or method. Run-Time error '438'.
The code assigned to that button is as follows:
Sub Button121_Click()
'
' Button121_Click Macro
' Macro recorded 8/11/2002 by Kale Mayfield
'
UserForm1.Show
End Sub
What am I doing wrong? HELP! Once you have the Userform populated with ComboBoxes,Textboxes, etc., is there now way of making changes to that Userform? If you make changes and rearrange the locations of the buttons and boxes and labels... does that mess up the button in Excel that opens the form to begin with?

I want to reference a cell from another workbook that is a hyperlink, but I want it to stay as a hyperlink and not text. Example would be workbook1 cell A1= workbook2 cell A5(which is a hyperlink) but in workbook1 A1 shows the text of the name of the hyperlink. I want the workbook1 cell to be exactly the same hyperlink...this way when I have multiple workbooks I just need to change the master workbook.

I created a new workbook that contains a list of additional design requirements than our old checklist. These requirements are answered by placing a 1, 0 or .5 in the cell next to the requirement (1 = yes, 0 = no and .5 for half credit). I can't simply go to the old workbook/worksheet and copy the results into the new workbook/worksheet as the rows of requirements don't match up since some requirmements have been deleted and new ones added between the old and new checklists.
I created a command button in the new checklist and what I want it to do is:
- open a dialog box that lets me select the old checklist file (these are all excel files, but with different names).
- go the the proper worksheet in the old file (DFT Checklist) and copy a column of results from the old checklist ("DFT Checklist" worksheet) and paste them into the proper cells of the new checklist ("DFT Checklist" worksheet).
- The macro would know (i'll have to tell it) which requirements and cells are still valid answers between the old checklist and the new one. It would disregard requirements that are no longer in the new checklist.
- Once complete, it would close the old checklist without saving.

I was wondering if possible i could use an on_click method to open the find facility in excel. I know it may be easier to use the Edit, Find or Ctrl+F way.
But i have people using excel with no past experience what so ever, and i would like to make it as easy as possible....i.e a click of a button that says "Search".

I have a menu structure in place so when a user clicks a button, it opens a Userform as a menu. The only problem i have is that if the user doesnt want to use that menu, and clicks on the spreadsheet, it doesnt dissapear.
Is there any VBA code that anyone knows that when a user clicks on the spreadsheet, or even just clicks their mouse anywhere (ie other menus at the top, spreadsheet, desktop) like a mouseout code on HTML so the menu will dissapear?

I have two workbooks. One is a no-nonsense form interface that my bosses will use to enter safety information. I'll call this workbook "Form". This file is stored locally on each of their computers. The other workbook is stored on a common drive. I'll call it "Master".
When my bosses fill out the Form and click "Submit", the Master file is opened, and certain cells are populated based on information entered in the Form. This is the code I am using to make this happen:

I'm doing the following:
Dim myname As String
myname = Application. GetOpenFilename
I use it to attempt to open first a QuickBooks file and then an excel workbook.
The Quickbooks file opens fine. The Excel workbook never appears to open but
I do get the full file pathname to my excel workbook returned which I then
parse off to get just the workbook name.
Why would it behave this way? I open both these files manually all the time.
Also, I'm trying to use a filter as follows:
myname = Application.GetOpenFilename("*.QBW")
I get a compile error saying that I'm calling the function wrong.
