Personal.xls Not Giving Functions
Aug 7, 2009
I referred the above two articles and accordingly created Personal.xls file in XLSTART folder. Here is the screenshot: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/872430/excel.png I have done nothing else to the workbook except what is seen in the screenshot.
I have tested the funtion by using it as a formula in the Personal.xls file.
When I start Excel, Personal.xls does start up but the funtion is not available to my in my other workbooks. Is there anything that I have missed out?

After using =Char(Mid(A1, 15, 1)), =Char(Mid(A1, 16, 1)), =Char(Mid(A1, 17, 1)), ... a few hundred times in years past, I made a form and wrote some code to list the contents of a cell in binary. It's been handy.
I recently added support for Unicode, so it may not be fully cooked (or maybe reheated), and double-width Unicode characters are problematic.
In addition to adding the attached form to the workbook, this needs to go in a code module.

I must be using hte wrong command or I am dumb.
Cell B8 I have a validation list of either Hub, Router, N/A
On cell C8 I want if (B8=Hub,3COM,0) but I get a NAME error. Is it because it won't work with letters but it can make the calculation?

I have a function saved in my Personal.xls (attached) but it is returning a #NAME error when used in other sheets. I am guessing that the NAME error means that the function can't be seen by other excel woorkbooks. I have already checked the following with no result:
1. Testing the code in a different workbook.
2. The code is visible in the script editor, but personal.xls is open but hidden.
3. When I open Tools>Macro>Macros the option of "All Open workbooks" is selected from the drop downbox.
4. Macro security is on low.
5. saving the function as a .xla file and running as an add-in

I have been working from help pages to try and learn and have added a personal(.xls) to my version of excel. Unfortunately I have saved some lines of code (as in the attachment screenshot) that appear to be interfering with the code that I have in some other workbooks. I cannot find a way of deleting this code or how to delete the personal(.xls) part of the VBA editor.

I have installed Excel on my new computer. Went to save a macro and I cannot locate the file "Personal.Xls"
Inside of Excel I can unhide "Personal.Xls" and it is visible.

I have several macros set up as modules in my personal.xls. There is one particluar macro (for purposes here I will call it "SourceMacro") which I use repeatedly in other macros (also stored in personal.xls). What I have been doing is copying the code from SourceMacro and pasting it into other macros.
I understand that I can actually run the SourceMacro without pasting the code by using a run command. I have inserted the following code into one of my other macros, but get an error message saying that the SourceMacro can not be found. (I have checked spelling carefully.)
Run "Personal.xls!SourceMacro"
Excel 2003 / Windows XP

I have a macro to insert rows and add formatting in personal.xls, which will run from another worksheet when using alt+ f8 with no problems.
However, I am trying to run it from a macro in the second worksheet and have tried :
Call InsertRows
and get a Compile Error: Sub or Function not defined.
Application.Run "insertrows"
and get a Runtime Error '1004': the macro '...' can not be found.
Application.Run "Personal.xls!insertrows"
and get no error message, but the rows are not inserted.
If I copy the Sub code into the new worksheet, and then use Call, everything acts as it should.
Is the third method the correct way of calling the macro, and if so, what would cause it not to do what it is supposed to do?

I have (and will be) creating a number of macro in my personal workbook, a number of which will be run from within other macro also in my personal workbook. I am creating these to be distributed to members of staff within my work. This will be done by creating a template workbook for the job to be done, and e-mailing them all a copy. Now, I can not work out how to move the macro from my personal workbook into the new template so they can be run from there? Also, the macro that access other macro have a path to my personal workbook, will this be updated automatically when they are moved, or will I need to manually change them

Last friday my personal.xls file went missing. I cannot find it anywhere which means I am missing about 10 key macros. While it is not the upset of the century, my problem is that now when I go into Record Macro and try to "Store New Macro in:" -> "Personal Macro Workbook" and then click OK, Excel brings up a msg box that says:
Personal Macro Workbook in the startup folder must stay open for recording.
Click OK and Excel says:
Unable to Record

I search the web and found a few different instructions, however the all lead me to the same point. My unhide button is greyed out and not an option. The workbook is in the correct location on my machine, etc. For some reason I cannot unhide it and have it show in my VBA window...

I am having a problem that shouldn't be that hard to fix, but I can't seem to figure it out. I have a file in the xlstart folder, called "personal.xls" with macros in it. The security level is at low, it isn't on the disabled list, and it won't automatically open when excel opens. If I double click on it, it opens. It just won't open when excel is first started. Is there any way to correct this?

I recently added two excel files to my startup, I receive the file in use error that the personal.xls is locked for editing box when the second file starts to execute. I can open them separately using their icons with no problem, what's the problem with opening them using the startup function. XP professional version 2002 SP2.

I am just learning a bit of VBA and developed a macro that runs fine if I used it on any workbook but when I imported it to personal.xls and tried to run it, it runs on the personal.xls itself. I tried inserting a line that activates worksheet(2) but that didn't work.

I have found several examples of excellent macro code on this site.
Is there a procedure to import a macro code ( saved as a TXT file) into the Personal.xls file?
For example, the following code removes blank spaces and converts text to proper case.
Is there an easy way to save this as a macro in my Personal.xls file?
'Macro Code to apply TRIM and PROPER functions on the selected range ..

I'm working on a spreadsheet and I want the letter "E" to have a numerical value of zero, and not necessarily in just place as my sheet will be regularly updated. If you're a fan of golf, you will understand what I am doing. I'm basically making a custom leader board for a fantasy golf game that I'm doing, and I'd like for the letter E to represent the value of zero when I am adding up the scores.
For example
A1: -1
A2: -3
A3: 4
A4: E
A5: -2
A6: 3
A7: 3
A8: -5
Total: -11 (have a formula set up to only count the best 4 scores).
I want to be able to add up those columns, and since only the lowest 4 scores count, I need E to equal zero. I get that I could just put 0 there, so I'm being a little picky (in golf E represents Even par, essentially a value of zero for the purposes of this game). There are 20+ teams in the game so I need E to be recognized as zero in each of those fields.

Sheet 1 has 3 columns: grade, step, NBS
Sheet 2 has 3 columns: SM, grade, step
I want to add a column NBS to sheet 2 for that exact grade and step, from
the data on sheet 1.
I tried the following formula but it gives me #value!.
=INDEX(sheet1!$C$2:$C$6,MATCH(B2&C2,sheet1!$A$2:$A$6&sheet1!$B$2:$B$6,0),3)

This formula has been working fine for me...until I have the condition where no value >0 has been entered in my LOOKUP range as yet. Or at least that is what I have managed to test so far. I've verified that my values have the same format (General) and I've verified that my ranges are all of the same size.
I'm looking in one worksheet for a work order meter reading that will be entered in another sheet when the Unit # for the equipment matches. I discovered if there is a work order entered for and no meter reading has ever been recorded yet, I get the #N/A error. If I go in and put a fictitious meter reading in of 1, the error goes away. It doesn't like a blank or zero meter reading and I need to know how to get around this. Here's the current calculation:

I have a very large excel spreadsheet with many formulas in it. Some of the formulas are giving a 0.00 value even when there should be a $value. I don't know why this is happening? It is not happening to every formula and it is not consistant within the same row or even the same column. Most of these formuals have been used in this spreadsheet for years by many different people with no problems.

I noticed that when I clicked F4 Button on the keyboard it shows the screen resolution(with screen 1 and screen 2) as though one wants to use projector. The keyboard's configurations seems different from what I am used to.
What I can do to resolve this as I wanted to use the F4 Button referencing($).

I have a problem with isnumber giving me two different results. One time it will evaluate the following as true:
ISNUMBER(0)
and in the same sheet it will evaluate the same as false.
I need ISNUMBER to NOT recognise "0" as a number all the time.

I've got a Macro that generates three reports for me, one at a time.
After a report has been generated it creates an Email and attachs the report to the Email, I then check the report is ok before sending out.
The problem is, that once the first Email has been generated Excel is pushed into the background and the macro sloooooooows down.
I believe (though I will quite happily be wrong) this is because Excel is no longer the PC's main concern.
What I was wondering was, is it possible to bring Excel back to the foreground once the Email has been generated.

I have a CSE formula that's been working great since day one.
In B202 I have the name Magnecraft.
In Row9 I have all the possible sources for this item starting in D9:CB9.
The fx in C202 is as follows:
{=SUBSTITUTE(MCONCAT(IF(INDEX(D202:CC202,MATCH(B202,B202:B202,0),0)="X",","&$D$9:$CB$9,"")),",","",1)}
I have an "x" in E202 and I202.
C202 should then show (in this case) Abacus and A/E as the 2 sources available.
I'm getting an #NAME? error.
And if I insert a new row, all the data in each cell in C"C turns to #NAME?.

I was looking at the other posts and this should work. Why the bleep can't I get the MROUND function to work. Simple scenario...I need to round UP numbers to the nearest 50. 320 should bring back 350, 351 should bring back 400.
For example, if this is in cell A1, I think the formula should be =MROUND(A1,50). Yet everytime I use the function, it gives me NAME#.
