I'm trying to paste this column to the first non-active cell in column D, but the code is taking it down two rows and two columns down, depending on where the active cell starts. I would just start it on a certain cell, but eventually, there will be different starting points.
whenever the active cell is within a given range, highlight the cell on the same row in column S (by changing its interior colour). This should occur each time the active cell is changed, whether by cursor keys or mouse. The effect would be similar to the row and column highlights at left and top of the worksheet.
This action should be restricted to one sheet in the workbook.
I have got stuck on one piece of my code and having trouble fixing... Overall I am trying to find variable station name in cell L2 of Sheet 2 in Sheet 1 and then select and copy the data from the data in "cell L2 of Sheet 2" to the last entry of that row. I have attached an example test spreadsheet of the data and a macro is within Sheet 1 called test1. Please note that cell L2 in Sheet 2 will always be different station name and the station list in Sheet 1 will change with differing station name.
The code I am using is:
[Code] .....
The code that is not working and bringing up an error is:
I have a macro that copies all my sheets onto a new sheet called combine. It is pasting onto the combine sheet starting on cell A2 instead of cell A1. Following is my macro.
Sub Combine() Dim J As Integer Sheets(1).Select Worksheets.Add Sheets(1).Name = "Combined" On Error Resume Next For J = 2 To Sheets.Count Sheets(J).Activate Range("A1").Select Selection.CurrentRegion.Select Selection.Copy Destination:=Sheets("Combined").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp)(2) Next End Sub
Is it possible to lock in the formatting that would require 12 digits even if someone was copying and pasting to the cell?
We are looking to make our users add information into cells in the format 0-00000-00000-0. They are often copy and pasting, thus overwritting the custom format we have in those cells.
I've looked at validation, but custom only works for a formula.
I'm trying to paste the number 1-987654321 into cell A1. But when I click the cell onces then Ctrl+V to paste, it converts the number. It puts 1 into cell A1 and 987654321 into cell A2. I've tried changing the format of the cell to TEXT and GENERAL but that doesn't work. Now I can double click the cell and then paste and that works. My only issue with that is all the other data I'm pasting into the spreadsheet, I'm able to do so by only clicking once. This spreadsheet will be used by 20 people and I'm afraid that if they paste by click once in all the other cells and have to double click to paste in this cell, that it will cause confusion and a headache for me.
I'm working with the sort of data that spills over into multiple cells if you try to paste it without first putting the cursor in the function window. Is there any way to change this default behaviour (or, alternately, automatically redirect the cursor to the function window every time I hit "enter" and go to the next cell)? I'm working with literally thousands of entries, so the time spent double-clicking and/or manually redirecting the cursor to the function window adds up after a while.
I have a large data which is placed in single cell and I want to copy it into a template which is merged cells any I'm stucked. My data is very large and I can't unmerged the destination data(they are merged vertically). So I wonder is there a way to copy a single cell in a merge cell.
I have just generated a report of current customer numbers for our company. Unfortunately it reports it as "162 (162)". No idea why the program does it like that because it now makes using VLOOKUP very difficult.
What I want to do is copy the "162" part of the cell and paste it into the adjacent cell to make it easier to manipulate the worksheet. All of the customer numbers are in column D if that makes a difference.
I have a template A that has lines on it, sometimes I want to overlay template B which has other lines on it, however when I past template B on top of A the formats of A are overridden by the formats of template B.
Is there any way of "overlaying" B on top of template A without losing the template A formats?
Objective: * I want to copy a range that starts at 1 cell immediately to the right of AddressStart and extends for 100 cells wide * I want to paste 10 rows of this information * AddressStart will be a variable address such as B2, B10, B1000
Here is my current code (which fails on copy/paste):
Code: For NewRows = 1 To 10 WSReqs.Range(AddressStart).Offset(NewRows, 0).EntireRow.Insert WSReqs.Range(AddressStart, Cells(0, 100)).Offset(0, 1).Copy Destination:=WSReqs.Range(AddressStart, Cells(0, 100)).Offset(NewRows, 0) Next NewRows
Questions: 1) How do I set the relative reference to set the size of width of the row to be pasted? 2) Is it possible to refer to the end of the row (far right)
Here is what is supposed to happen: when the macro button is hit, today's date will appear in the first blank cell in row 3, then the text "late" in the next cell, then finally "1" in the next cell.
I have been trying to use .end(xlright) but i can not quite get it to work.
I am making template and trying to preserve formatting when users paste into a cell. From my research, I have found that this is impossible with simple format protection, it works to prevent changing formating, but if something is pasted (with normal paste), the format will change.
I have found a few solutions, but can't get them to work correctly
Solution A: Disable normal paste and substitute Paste Special - Values
How will this work with pasting via CTRL + V and the right click menu? I need both to function.
Solution B: Allow users to paste normally, but use a macro to copy formatting from a hidden sheet
I actually found code for this, but I couldn't figure out exactly how to impliment it. The sheet that users will be pasting into is called "Batch Summary" and I was trying to pull formatting from a sheet names "Batch Summary Format", but was getting an error.
I want to copy an embedded object and and then paste it on the last used cell. However everytime i do this an error occurs.
Sub last_cell() Sheets(" Analysis").Select ActiveSheet.Shapes("Object 10").Select Selection.Copy Selection.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Select ActiveSheet.Paste End Sub
The error occurs in this line ( Selection.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Select ). Best Regards Faisal
Is it possible to preserve original text formatting when copying and pasting only part of a cell. Like, for example, a cell may contain ten words one of which is in red and underlined. How do you copy that one word and paste it in another cell so that it remains in red and underlined?
I am trying to create a macro that copies cells B2 and C6 from the active worksheet in a workbook called "transfer". Then searches for the first empty cell in a worksheet called "summary" in a workbook called "report" and pastes the value from B2 in the first empty cell in column D and the value from C6 in the first empty call in column E.
I am looking at trying to develop a workbook for my job that would make things alot more efficient.
Firstly, I download data from a web based app into excel. I now want to take certain full rows and paste them into another sheet depending if they have certain text in a cell. So i want to search the entire coloumn for a value of "OR" and if this is present copy the entire row into a new sheet ?
VBA to find the next appropriate blank cell in column "A" when copying ranges of varying sizes and pasting them in a new worksheet one after the next.
Currently I have recorded a macro that uses the code below to get to this location, but I am worried this will break when I get new data of a different range size;
Range(Selection, ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlLastCell)).Select 'my initial range selection Selection.Copy Windows("myfile.csv").Activate ActiveSheet.Paste ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlLastCell).Select 'finds last cell of my paste Range("N69").Select 'I hit the down arrow once to get to new blank row Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select 'to go to begining/col A of new row for next paste
I have inherited a monstrous speadsheet on which all data appears on a single sheet rather than being broken up across several sheets in some logical fashion.
One portion of this monster is a set of quite a few form letters, each of which reference various cells elsewhere in the spreadsheet.
I want to move all of these letters, together, to another tabbed sheet as a first step in reorganizing the monster.
Simply copying and pasting the cells or columns doesn't work. It fails in different ways depending on which pasting options I employ.
A very simplified version of my problem appears on the 5 sheets of the attached file, with what I hope is just enough further detail about the difficulty.
By the way, I also tried using the "Insert Copied Cells" option when pasting but since this failed with the exact same results as one of the other options I didn't include the results in the example shreadsheet.
I have a column filled with time data that I want to copy in to a column formatted to a time format (hh:mm:ss), the thing is when i copy the data to it the format does not apply unless i double click each of the brackets, there are 14000 lines so doing it manually is a hastle to say the least, is there a way to apply the time format immediately?
I have browsed for two days looking for material on effecting this. The technique quoted most is watch for undolist for paste & auto fill then undo the change and paste the value again with specific formatting needs. This technique can be implemented in a worksheet_change event handler. The problem that I am facing is that the user can copy and past while my VBA is running. Once it is caught inside my own application class object event handler all that undo stack is already cleared. Therefore I have nothing that tells me if the user has entered the value via a paste action. By the time the value is pasted, all that formatting would have been entered. For example, a value that is interpreted by another workbook as DATE will have my destination formatting changed to DATE as well even though it is designed to be TEXT at design time.
So far I have not been able to think of a scheme to deal with this.
My basic intention is to always ensure the destination cell formatting remains as TEXT. If something is already interpreted as DATE after the paste even if I can convert to TEXT the string will appear totally differently. I have to find a way to paste the whole thing as TEXT in order to keep the string the same. The problem is that there is no intrinsic PASTE event in VBA. Without a method to undo that paste I cannot catch this at all.
I have a range of amounts in Sheet 1 from F7:Q13 and im using the find method to search for the active and non active values in the cell. Which means that if there's a value in the cell it will transfer the value in Sheet 2, if nothing is found in the cell the cells in Sheet 2 will return as nothing or null.
I think the problem lies on the FindWhat variable. Im getting a compiled error which im not sure what is it.
I've attached the spreadsheet so you get a better idea of the problem that i encountered.
