Positioning A Specific Cell In The Upper Left-hand Corner
Jul 31, 2006Is there a way (in VBA) to position a specific cell of a worksheet in the upper left-hand corner (i.e. cell H40)?? I have some code that I'd like to have do this.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm working with text cells I get this tiny indent on the left hand side of a cell about the size of one hit of the spacebar button.
Excel doesn't recognise this as an indent and I can't get rid of it. It's, pardon my french
Does anyone now if it's possible to freeze left and right hand columns simultaneously eg. cell C3 above and left AND cell DB3 above and right?
The columns on between would then scroll left or right, until the static column was reached?
The questions are shown on the attached spreadsheet. There are 2 questions one on each sheet. On the spreadsheet the yellow cells indicate data that I'd import ( on the left) and input by hand to get the process going. The green cells have the correct numbers in them but I've had to manipulate them by hand.

Now it is constant using an image with the color green, red, blue, etc... I want a color picker so user can pick their own colors and when the color is picked the code will pick the color number.

I would like to left justify them insead of always having the totals on the far right side where they are often out of view to the user without scrolling. I end up having to place 2 pivot tables side by side so that I can make the totals appear first.

The layout is:
Box Name Box Date ID1 ID2 ID3 ....
Where there is not a fixed number of IDs in each box
(There are five different sheets so I'll have some fun concatenating results)
Given a list of IDs I need to return the box name and box date that the ID's file sits in. The spreadsheet has blanks everywhere and the numbers contained in rows are non-consecutive and smaller values can appear later in a column than larger ones.
I think I need some combination of index, offset and maybe sumproduct? TBH, I avoid sumproducts like the plague, preferring to utilise sumifs and dynamic named ranges since this improves clarity so I'm basically a newb at them.
Any skeleton framework that you think would work to return the text values for the LHS where the number could be anywhere? Once I can see a rough example I should be able to get to grips with the logic and wrangle it into the necessary solution.
I have the macro below, how do I make it NOT be case sensitive, I want it to work for test. Test, TEST

Code:
Sub test()
If Left(ActiveCell, 4) = ("test") Then
MsgBox "Activecell starts with test"
End If
End Sub
I want code to move the cursor to A788
But keep A788 in the top left corner on screen.
Is there easy code to help me accomplish this?
Also, Is there code that will take you to the first cell it finds closest to today's date.
Dates are in Column B.g
When I try to copy formulas across do I get a little black plus-sign in the lower right corner of the cell, when I point to it. I can then drag the plus-sign to the the area where I want to copy the formula. This plus-sign has now disappeared.

I can delete upper and lower case "D"s in column B, but I'm having difficulty stringing together several variations and getting at the "D"s that are midstream (such as: ADeC), I tried ("*D*") to no avail.
With . Cells(Lrow, "B")

I have a 2010 excel sheet containing 14 columns and 45082 rows in total. I am quite illiterate when it comes to writing macros but I know that what I need can be achieved with a set of codes.
To be more clear, I inserted two tables below. The first one represents the current data structure, and the second one is the way I want my data to look like.
Current data structure looks like
Variable 1
Variable 2
Variable 3
[Code].....
i use this code to get the value from the cell that contains "Ink"., and i got the codes from reading other problems:
=IF(SEARCH("Ink",a1),LOOKUP(99^99,--("0"&MID(a1,MIN(SEARCH({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},a1&"0123456789")),ROW($1:$10000)))),"")+0
like this in a1 -> Ink 253.00
and totally working! but the problem is if the word "ink" in the left of the value --> 253.00 ink and the result is #NA, is there any way that i can get the value whether the word Ink is in the left side or right side of the value?
also bothered why is it if the word is not "ink" in the cell and return -> #value since i put ("") in the last part of If function(value if false)?
I would like to BeforePrint check Left and Right Header for a specific text. If the text is different then i.e. “XYZ Test” then call sub ClearForm().

If it's mixed case, copy it. If it's all lower case or ALL CAPS, then make it PROPER.
i.e., if 'bananas' is in A1 and B2 says =PROPER(A2), then B2 says Bananas, because PROPER capitalises the first letter of each word.
I would like to do

I want a macro fill the value which is on the upper cell.
eg:If A1= Code and A2 is blank, A2 should be filled with A1 value which is 'Code'.
In the attached, I want C3,C4,C5 to be filled with 'A' which is in C2,
likewise I want C7,C8 to be filled with 'B' which is in C6 and C11 to be filled with 'C' which is in C10, likewise the data has to be filled in entire C col.
How can i convert into upper case every word in a given cell. For instance:
I have the following in column A: books pen desk
i want it to be like this: Books Pen Desk
I've got a column of data that I need to split into further columns, the only way of identifying the split from the data is if a lower case character appears next to an upper case character.
For example, a cell in column A could look like;
Computer ProductsDrivesDVDExternal
And I'd need to split that out to cover columns A B and C with
Computer Products / Drives / DVDExternal
I'd need to do that for all the cells in column A.
I've got the following code going :

I can't get my With statement to work.
I've got an Excel spreadsheet with quite a bit of code behind it (2007).
User can select a cell in Col A and push 'F2" and a ListBox pops up (becomes visible).
But if the User is on line 72 say, then the box is in the wrong position (and often becomes visible with diagonal lines across it!); that is I need to determine where the User is and set the ListBox position further down.
I tried to do this by calculating the offset based upon the row number they were on. This works really well, unless, the lines/records are varying heights.
Is there an easy way to do this ????? I have this feeling I must be missing something really simple about how this should work - I'm sure there must be a way that Excel has to handle this.
I have a column that is giving unwanted value . dont know the reason as that excel file has been created by some other guy and I just started working on it .
My Question is how to move to 2 cells left(A for example) from from that unwanted value column. and check if
A is equal to cell above it , means B Cell(Row above A but same column).
As my excel file is totally based on Forms, Macros, I am not quite familiar with macros.
Is there any way to put if condition in one cell (column) and drag it all the way down which should work for all the values in these 3 column.
And also if A=B then I want to make that unwanted value cell="".
I have a table that I use to generate about 20 graphs. The lower and upper limits can be manually altered in the table. If the user leave those 2 cells empty, I want the upper and lower limits be determined by default by Excel. So that the limits don't have to be entered for every graph in order for the graphs to be generated without any debugging error.
With ActiveChart.Axes(xlValue)
.MinimumScale = y1Lower

.DisplayUnit = xlNone
End With

y1Lower = .Cells(i, j + 9)
y1Upper = .Cells(i, j + 10)
I am trying to work out how to pisition a new object in some VBA code, I can do this if I copy an object then click on a cell, e.g. H74 then paste, but the properties for an object want this in points.
ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddShape(msoShapeOval, 50, 50, 26.25, 26.25).Select
What I want to do is select the cell H74, then find the coordinates for that cell then use these when creating the shape, I appreciate these coordinates will need to be assigned to variables, but how do you get then from a given cell?
I have a workbook where each name in a list has a picture of a flag of the country for that name. The flags are initially assigned to a cell with the country name (see sample attached). Later in the project the flag is copied to a cell in another sheet and assigned to the correct name in the list. The row heights in this list of names is larger than the row height of the sheet with list of countries.
The flags in the sample have been manually sized and positioned as accurately as possible. I am struggling with the VBA code to size and position each flag exactly so that there is a very small gap between the top, bottom and left of the flag and the cell border. Each is set to move and resize with cell.
is it posible to control the positioning of the pop-up data validation input messsage box via vba? As often it obscures the view of critical cells below.
You can manually click and drag it to a desired position manually. Mana users are not aware of that. It would be desirable to reposition it elsewhere rogramatically.
I have made charts in VBA charts that needs to be placed on specific position and have specific sizes on a chartsheet. I use plotarea (top, left, width, height) for that. Unfortunately when I set these values they keep chaning, there is some scaling going on in Excel and they won't get the specified size. I have been looking on the internet and finally I found a piece of code which works, but still not good enough, because the legend is also not good positioned
De data for resizing the new charts (ChtNew), the legends and the charttitle I get from other charts (ChtOrig). The legend.legendposition of ChtOrig does not have a value but it still have a top,left,height en width which I use.
I show you my code, the part with the for-next is taken from the internet.
I am trying to find a solution now for 3 days and now I only dream of huge charts (which is not good). So please can someone help me with this? This is the last forum, that I can try, I didn't get reactions from others.
with ChtNew.legend
.Top = ChtOrig.Legend.Top
.Height = ChtOrig.Legend.Height
.Left = ChtOrig.Legend.Left
.Width = ChtOrig.Legend.Width '* 1.1
.Top = ChtOrig.Legend.Top + ChtOrig.ChartTitle.Top
end with
With ChtNew.Plotarea
.Top = ChtOrig.PlotArea.Top
.Height = ChtOrig.PlotArea.Height
.Width = ChtOrig.PlotArea.Width
.Left = ChtOrig.PlotArea.Left
For i = 1 To ChtOrig.PlotArea.Top........
I am using data validation input messages for data entry tips/definitions. The data entry cells are grouped in small tables (about 5 rows X 6 columns) so when the user clicks on a cell, the data validation input message box pops up next to the active cell. This covers the adjacent cells which need to be completed as well.
If I drag the message box over to right of the input table, the messages for the other cells stay in the new location as well. However, Excel doesn't remember this location the next time the workbook is opened.
Is there a way to set the location of the message box or some other way to achieve the same objective of having text boxes pop up in a defined location when a cell is activated?
i try to change the chart position (chart properties) to make it auto- move to empty cells, but anyway i fail.
say example:-
i have a excel sheet,
Worksheet 1
------------
raw data, all records.
worksheet 2
-------------
1 pivot table + a graph/chart at the same sheet.
top area of worksheet is pivot table, below is chart.
The pivot table size can be change from time to time (by increasing the records at the worksheet 1)
settings or using vba to control it? by auto move the chart position down, and not overlap with the pivot table.
Using a macro, how do I tell Excel to:
1. Copy the xth row and paste it before the yth row
2. Copy the mth column and paste it before the nth column
3. Copy the cell a,b and paste it in he position c,d
where x,y,m,n,a,b,c,d are variables, the value of which the user inputs, say in cells A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7 and A8 respectively.
In other words, I need to read numbers m and n which are the values of cells A1 and A2, then I need to go to column number m (for instance, if m=4, I go to column D), copy the whole row, go to column number n (for instance, if m=6, I go to column F), and insert the copied column.
Also wondering if VBA provides any way to quickly horizontally and vertially flip copied tables while pasting. While I am aware of the transpose function which swaps rows with columns, I am looking for a way to reverse the order of either the rows or the columns as per my need, without having to copy-paste row-by-row or column-by-column.
