Excel 2010 :: Cell Styles Not Deleting
Apr 15, 2014I have some cell styles that refuse to be deleted in Excel 2010. I can see them on the ribbon, but right clicking and deleting doesn't do anything. Any way I can get rid of them? Just makes things look very messy. If I click them it says "Style 'XXX' not found."

Excel 2007 :: VBA Create Pivot Table - How To Prevent Creation On New Sheet
May 11, 2012I have pieced together a VBA script to create a pivot table. Which is all great and works fine BUT for some reason it is now forcing the table onto a new worksheet. see code below, why it might be creating a new sheet. Alsothe sheet Worksheets("TICKETS BY OWNER & DAY") does exist.

Excel 2003 :: Border Line Styles Not Working
May 20, 2012(Excel 2003, using Format/Cells)
I have selected a range of multiple rows and columns. I can change the alignment, cell color, where border lines appear, and the color of border lines.
However, I can not change the border line style. No matter what style I select, when drawn on the sheet it apppear as a thin solid line. I've tried all the dashed/dotted line options, but they appear to have no effect.
Ultimately, I want to color alternating rows of cells, and (since coloring hides grid lines) I want to add border lines the same color and style as the hidden grid lines.
Excel VBA - Change Marker Styles For All Series Excluding Unmarked Lines
Aug 4, 2014I have a macro that changes the marker style for all series in a scatter chart, chosen through an input box.

It works nicely, but I want it to exclude any series that do not have markers (i.e. lines used to indicate a reference value). I've tried an if-then statement after the With statement, but it will add markers to any line series:

Basically, if the series has markers or line+markers, I want it to change the marker style, otherwise do nothing with the series.
Applying Named Ranges To Pivot Table
Oct 6, 2008I have a range of data that is added to constently. I named the range "Download" and defined it as =Indirect(Sheet1!B3) where Sheet1!B3 has another formula which produces the range of the data. I want to apply the named range to a pivot table so that when it updates, the range is updated as well but i'm not sure on how to do this. I put the word "download" in the range input of the pivot table wizard but it results in an error and doesn't complete. how can i set the pivot table's range to the named range that I defined?

Dec 2, 2009Instead of Excel creating a new sheet when I double click on the results of a pivot table, is it possible to just filter the results of the original source data's sheet?
Here is my situation, I have source data that needs to be updated after someone double clicks on the pivot table data. They won't be able to update the source data if it just creates a new sheet (since it's a copy).
I'm running Excel 2003.
Excel - Applying Color To Cells?
Sep 19, 2013I am using two separate workbooks. I am tranferring dates into a new spreadsheet to track projects dates for milestones.
The formula I am using is this: =IF('[BBBBB Dates as of 9-9-13.xlsx]Sheet1'!$CQ$4="", VLOOKUP(W54, '[BBBBB Dates as of 9-9-13.xlsx]Sheet1'!$1:$1048576, 94, FALSE), VLOOKUP(W54, '[BBBBB Dates as of 9-9-13.xlsx]Sheet1'!$1:$1048576, 95, FALSE)).
I would like the cell to turn green if the last part of the formula is true and stay clear if the first part of the formula is true.
I also need to add color beyond just that. I was attempting to apply conditional formatting but am a bit stumped. I want the green to be maintained regardless of other formatting. I would also like to apply to cells that are not color coded green:
Red - if the date is overdue
Yellow - if the date is within 7 days
Otherwise, leave the cell color as clear
Is this possible with conditional formatting? I am not at all proficient in VBA...
Applying IF Condition In Excel In A Cell?
Sep 21, 2013I want to have a condition which will check if the value in cell is present or not and based on that i have to display result in a cell.
Eg: In Sheet1, in column D i have 4 values (Simple, Complex, Medium Complex, Very Complex)
In Sheet 4, we have numeric values to Simple, complex...Like below
Complexity Estimation
Simple 2hrs
Complex 4hrs
Medium Complex 2.5hrs
Very Complex 6hrs
In Sheet5, we have values defined in % like below:
Requirement Analysis
15%
Design
20%
Coding
20%
System Testing
15%
[code]....
In column G of Sheet1, we have to write a function or formula which we do below calculation.
IF (Sheet1!D3="Simple") then Sheet1!G3=Sheet5!B2(ie.15%) of Sheet4
Similarly i will have Sheet1!D3 values as Complex,Medium Complex,Very complex
Excel VBA - Applying Code To Specific Worksheet?

Excel 2010 :: Macro For Applying Changes To Multiple Files
Aug 16, 2012Excel 2010, Windows 7
I have a whole ton of *.dbf files (98 to be exact), that are from ArcGIS shapefiles. These date1_date2.dbf files have point names, and values, as shown below.
NAMERASTERVALU
Point 1-9999.00000000
Point 2-9999.00000000
Point 3-9999.00000000
Point 4-4.93072701
Point 5-8.90071201
I'm trying to figure out how to transpose each of the dbf files and save them as a text file (tab deliminated). My original plan involved saving them all as text files, then using a convoluted Unix script (I'm what you call a "dirty programmer") to transpose them and then combine them all into a single file. Since there are so many files (and I plan to do this in the future as well), I thought if I could at least automate the text file creation, I'd be ahead of the game. Even better would be a macro that will transpose the data for EACH file, then create a 99 (98 files + header row) row, 5 column text file. Creating the text files (1 text file for each dbf file) automatically .
All the *.dbf files will have exactly the same # rows/columns (2 columns, 6 rows)
This is what I've tried so far.
1)open one of the dbf files in Excel
2)record my marco (using the Personal Macro Workbook option - so it will be available in any workbook)
2a) transpose data (and paste it right below the original data so that the new data is in rows 7 and 8 of the same file)
2b) save as text file (tab deliminated)
2c) stop recording, and end up with this:
NAMERASTERVALU
Point 1-9999.00000000
Point 2-9999.00000000
Point 3-9999.00000000
Point 4-4.93072701
Point 5-8.90071201
NAMEPoint 1Point 2Point 3Point 4Point 5
RASTERVALU-9999.00000000-9999.00000000-9999.00000000-4.93072701-8.90071201
So now I want to apply the macro I just created to all open workbooks (after I bring in all the bdf files), but the macro isn't listed when I click the "view macros" button. All I want to do is apply the steps I recorded in the macro to all open workbooks.
Excel 2007 :: Applying Conditional Formatting To A Dynamic Named Range?
Jul 10, 2012I have an Excel 2007 Workbook which is refreshed by a Web Query. I have dynamic named range defined as "Manager" which I've confirmed is correctly identified. This range includes only one column and is formatted as text.
When I try to reference this range in my conditional formatting "refers to" formula, all cells are recognized as blank even though the range clearly contains many cells that are not. For example, there are 90 records containing the initials "PD". If I use the formula =Manager="PD" in my conditional formatting, nothing changes. If I change it to =Manager="" then ALL records are formatted, including those that are not blank.
Stranger still, if I enter the formula =COUNTIF(Manager,"PD") into and empty cell in my worksheet those 90 records are counted correctly. Which leads me to believe it isn't about the data. Conversely, =COUNTIF(Manager,"") returns the correct count of only cells that are, in fact, blank.
I've tried using the OFFSET formula defining my range in place of the name itself for my conditional format formula to no avail.
Changing Between Two Custom Styles?
Mar 27, 2013I am trying to get a phone number column to change between two custom styles. I have added the styles in as:
Mobile: 0000 000 000
Extenstion: x00000
I need column E5 down to change between the two if < 6 or >5 numbers are used in a cell to change to the correct style.
Does this can be done just using the styles or vba coding is required.
I already have some vba to add the date into column B if column A is altered.
Conditional Formatting Using Styles
Oct 31, 2006I know OpenOffice can do it but I can't seem to figure out if Excel can or not. I have various styles defined to include the font, color, pattern, etc. which are setup the way that I want. I also have Options>View - Zero Values.", "style="background: #FFFFFF;padding: 2px;font-size: 10px;width: 550px;"");' onmouseout='GAL_hidepopup();'>formatting.htm" target="_blank">conditional formatting formulas set where I want. All appears to be working well. What I want is that the result of the conditional format uses the style reference rather than the absolute reference by changing the format in the conditional dialogue box. Can Excel handle that? If so, how?

Aug 23, 2007I was creating command buttons and had trouble using the linked cell. I found an example on the forum here but the command buttons seem to have many different behaviors. On the attachment, "Button 1" and "Button 2" are the ones I created in Excel 2003. "Button A" and "Button B" are from an example I found on the forum.
1 and 2 can only be edited on design mode, and have the formula "=EMBED("Forms.OptionButton.1","")" by default (which yields an error when exiting the formula field).

Macro To Set Border Line Styles
Jan 26, 2007 I have a range of data (not a named range, just a selection) and I typically want:
- the top 2 rows to have a heavy border on the left, top and right sides with a light line on the bottom.
- On the bottom line, I need a heavy line on the left, bottom and right sides.
- The body in between needs to have heavy lines on the left and right sides with dots for all in between.
The top 2 lines show titles, the bottom line is for totals and the body in between shows the data.
I've made 3 separate macros that do each part but I'm hoping that they can be integrated into one.
Change Custom Cell Styles
Oct 1, 2009I have a workbook in Excel 2007 with several sheets imported from other workbooks. In the course of this, one of them has brought several custom cell styles with it and I would like to be rid of them, as they clutter up the cell styles gallery.
Most of them were cooperative and deleted simply enough by right-clicking and selecting 'Delete', but one is proving a little more stubborn.
When I mouse over it, it plays the 'alert' noise (the 'bink' you get when Excel wants to alert you to something) and then nothing happens. There is no noticeable change to text or cell, as there should be thanks to 2007's previewing ability. Trying to apply the style results in the message
"Style '
386grabber=VGA.3GR
' not found."
(the line breaks are present in the message and seem to be because the style name actually has character returns as the first and last characters).
Is there a way to delete this style, or am I going to have to resign myself to having an annoying noise every time I try to apply styles

Excel 2010 :: Prevent Scrolling To Bottom Row
Jun 28, 2011I'm currently creating a workbook whereby I have (regrettably) highlighted entire columns and formatted these columns to show borders. The reason I did this was because drawing them in manually (I thought) would take much longer with the way the worksheet is laid out.
Obviously highlighting the entire column has meant that borders were drawn all the way down to the bottom row of the workbook, and so the vertical scroll bar cannot effectively be 'dragged' up and down as even a tiny movement will cause it to scroll right past the worksheet.
I have tried running a macro to clear contents and formatting for all the unused rows, but the scroll bar remains to be a pain.
I want the scroll bar to only scroll down to a few cells below the available work space like it should do.
Excel 2007 :: Prevent SQL From Locking Tables?
Oct 28, 2013I saw a previous post regarding using "with (nolock)" in the FROM statement with each table to prevent SQL from locking the tables. I'm not sure exactly what's going on, but when I edited a query to add an extra criteria, the query is grinding the server practically to a halt (such power!!). Our IT guy tells me that my query is taxing the server. Maybe I'm not using the NOLOCK correctly?
Here is the query as I'm running it that runs slow. (The additional WHERE statement that I added that created the slow down is this one: ((cicmpy.AccountTypeCode='TSH') AND (oehdrhst_sql.ord_dt>={ts '2013-01-01 00:00:00'}))
Prior to adding this statement and the NOLOCK, the query runs in a flash.

Excel 3003 :: How To Prevent To Stop Macro Called From A Function
May 3, 2014I am trying to use the simplest code possible (being a novice) to execute a macro which makes a copy of Cell A1:A4 and paste its values to Cells B1:B4 if cell B5=1 (or whatever).

Excel 2003 :: Prevent Conversion Of XLS File To A Newer Format?
Mar 27, 2013Is there a way to disable the Convert button on the File menu and also to limit the Save As file types? I have a workbook that I maintain in Office 2003 that gets filled out by customers and returned. When a user with a newer version of Excel converts the file, it doesn't function properly when I go open it. I believe the conversion issue has to do with Active X Controls, but I'm using them to do some things that won't work with Forms Controls, so replacing them would be a last resort. Also, upgrading Office isn't an option at this point.

Convert Layout Of Excel Table To Make It Suitable For Pivot Table
Mar 27, 2012I have a very large excel data file, which I want to analyse using pivot tables. The problem is that while most of the columns are headed with the variable name (e.g. country) and have the list of variables displayed under that heading for each observation (e.g. Italy), the years are spread across the columns - i.e. the heading for column X is not "Year", but is 2003, with the next column being 2004, etc.
Is there a quick way I can re-arrange the data so that the layout is consistent and so that I can use it for pivot tables? I have way too many observations to do this by hand.
