At the time of opening the file some macros are running automatically in my file as per my requirement. If auto filter is on then it disturbs my program. Sometimes I forget to remove auto filter before closing the file and it cause a problem in my file after opening it again.
Requirement is: Is there any code to prevent the file closing if the auto filter is on and give me a warning message 'Please remove auto filter first'.
I have a spreadsheet with a number of fields on it which must be filled in before the file can be saved, and if the user attempts to close the spreadsheet without filling in the required fields, I want a message box to appear asking for confirmation that the user wishes to quit, if yes, the sheet exits, if no, the sheet remains open

Is it possible to fire this macro to auto run before me closing a workbook so i don;t need to wait and also worksheet is saved with the latest changes
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet and I would like for it to automatically close after printing.
Long version: The sheet is set up with several fields that can be changed by the user, and the date/time are automatically entered upon opening the sheet. I want to ensure that all fields are reset, and the date/time are correctly updated, every time that the user uses the spreadsheet. The last thing the user will do when finished entering his information will be to print the form, so I figure this would be a good time to make the form close (if this is possible).
I have already entered a code to prevent the query "do you want to save changes" before closing. So when they open the spreadsheet it will always contain the same starting information.
Is there anyway that a workbook can be set up to close itself at a set time i.e 19.00hrs every day?
I have made a vba program in excel 2003 that opens a worksheet using Workbooks.Open, and copies all the worksheets out into the program etc. The worksheets that I am opening have macros that automatically execute when the worksheet is opened (opening up some forms ). These macros are running when I open the file using VBA. How can I prevent this from happening. The automatically executed code in the workbook being opened is located in "this workbook" and can be seen below.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim CfileName As String
'Check Config sheet for template state
If Config.Cells(10, 3) = 1 Then
CustomizeDirInfo.Show
End If
If Config.Cells(10, 3) = 2 Then
GetConfData
GetGrpData
StdFileGen.Show
Else
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
I am needing to disable 5 worksheets from being calculated under the 'AutoCalculate' default option of excel. Currently, I set all 5 sheets' .enablecalculation property to false (see code example below), then save the workbook. This should prevent these 5 sheets from being calculated when the workbook is opened again - however these sheets are still being calculated with excels default 'Auto Calculate' setting once the workbook is reopened.
My issue:
While having 'Auto Calculate' enabled, how is a sheet disabled from being calculated upon opening?
Current method of disabling worksheet - does not work tho.
worksheets("Mysheet1").EnableCalculation = False
Any way to auto-close the excel application after finishing my macro run?

I use a query table to import data into a workbook which works fine
With wsActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:=sQueryString, _
Destination:=wsActiveSheet. Range("A1"))
.Name = CStr("main.html?LANG=de&search=true&searchterm=" & sIdentifier & "_1")
.PreserveFormatting = True
.BackgroundQuery = False
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertEntireRows 'xlInsertDeleteCells
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.WebSelectionType = xlSpecifiedTables
.WebTables = "9,14"
.WebPreFormattedTextToColumns = True
.WebSingleBlockTextImport = False
.WebDisableRedirections = False
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False

One of the fields I import has a value like 100:01 or 10:01 or 01:01 or other combinations (the above ones are the most frequent ones).
Unfortunately excel always converts this field into a date and a time but this is not what I want.
Is there any way to stop excel doing this? I tried to work around it with the text property e.g. formating it to text after I imported the data and formating the entire sheet to use text before
As an example, I have this code to open a message box saying "Hello" when Excel opens.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a 'few' workbooks that I have added some code to which auto closes the workbook if it has been inactive for more than 60 minutes.
Problem seems to be is that this doesn't envoke if a screen saver is active, does anyone have any VB code to disable the screen saver until after the workbook has closed.
I have a menu workbook with macro buttons that call different workbooks. Call the menu workbook (switchgear.xlsm). Switchgear contains 2 buttons. Button 1 closes switchgear and opens Book1. Button 2 closes switchgear and opens book 2.
If book1 is open and nothing has changed for 3 minutes I would like it to close and open switchgear.xlsm. I do not want it to just close in 3 minutes... I want it to close after 3 minutes of inactivity.
I have search all over and tried and tried to achieve this without success...
I have been able to get the timer to work but it gets caught in a loop. If I open book1 and close it in less than a min then 3 minutes later out of nowhere the code tries to run???
Secondly when this happens I see several book1 vba projects loaded in the editor window???
I have an excel file stored on a network drive for the purpose of information sharing. (File protected with a password)
But some the guys leave the file open for quiet long time and hence I cannot open the file for updating the data.
-I need to have a macro that runs every 5 minutes and displays an alert message saying "Please close the File" as long as the file is kept open.
-A second macro with a modified version of the above to close the file automatically after 5 minutes from file opening time after showing an alert message "You cannot leave the File Open, File is Closed Automatically!"
I'm working on a time sheet, and to make it easier to enter time i created a macro that sets the auto correct to correct a "." to a ":", but when the workbook closes i want to run a macro that deletes the auto correct rule.
I have the following code that displays a form at a user defined time and if the user does not press "Stop" then the workbook saves and closes. The user can press stop then the workbook remains open.
Here is what I have where:
Admin_Auto_Shutdown = Yes or No
Admin_Auto_Shutdown_Time = 3:34pm or user defined time (This doesn't seem to work??)
'Auto Shutdown CloseandSave
If UCase(wb.Worksheets("Admin"). Range("Admin_Auto_Shutdown").Value) = "YES" Then
Application .OnTime TimeValue("Admin_Auto_Shutdown_Time"), "AutoShutdown"
End If
Sub AutoShutdown()
Application.OnTime TimeValue("Admin_Auto_Shutdown_Time"), "AutoShutdown"
Auto_Shutdown_Form.Show
End Sub
Now, my question is about a timer that I can show on a form. When the form is displayed I would like to give the user 30 seconds to press stop (and keep the workbook open) or to press proceed and save and close or to not do anything and the workbook would close and save when the timer reaches zero.
Code for user form which is missing most everything...
Private Sub Halt_Click()
'If user whats to continue without closing
Auto_Shutdown_Form.Hide
End Sub
Private Sub Proceed_Click()
'If user whats to save and close
Auto_Shutdown_Form.Hide
How do I add a timer to this code where it will run this at the end of the timer?
Auto_Shutdown_Form.Hide
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
With ThisWorkbook
.Saved = True
.Close
End With
I have a problem on auto-sorting my data after clicking the "x" or "Close" button on DataForm. Im creating a command button that trigger a macro to open an autofill DataForm. I want a code that everytime i ADD or EDIT using the DataForm, it will automatically sort the Column A after clicking the "x" or "Close" button. Below is the code of my macro:
Code:
Sub OpenForm()
Sheets("DATA").Select
ActiveSheet.ShowDataForm

I have a workbook, "A", that while open I need to be able to detect any type of activity within other open Excel workbooks "B...Z" that are simultaneously open.
I understand that I would need to use the Class Module with a Public WithEvents function but I am stuck here.
I want to make sure that the user of a file only saves from a button on a particular sheet. Can I ensure that if the user goes File Save at any time that they cannot use it?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to fix is that I have two computers networked together both with multiple users all with access to the report form that I am using which is in the shared file. If I have been working on it (I am still trying to do improvements when I have time), and I have to leave for a fire or forget to close the report, no one can access it other than with read-only.
My idea was to run some type of code that either when the screen saver comes on or after so much time with no activity, it would close and save the file with a new file name(just in case I don't want the changes that I have made in the code or something).
