I have an Excel 2007 file that is a work of art. Users manually copy several rows and columns from a table on a web page and paste it into my Excel file. This turns my beautiful Rembrandt into a Jackson Pollack mess. The formating of my cells is replaced with the formating from the web page. Is it possible to make the Excel file ignore the formatting of the data being copied? As a default?
View 9 RepliesI am using to copy info from a cell to ta text box that I created using the tool box.
View 2 Replies View RelatedCell A1 could contain either % value (eg 50.0%) or could contain a numeric value (eg 50.0). (It's input is written by a macro that performs a sorting function, hence the mix of % and absolutes).
I need to copy the contents of A1 to cell B1 with a simple formula "=A1"
The problem is that Cell B1 will either show 0.5 or 50.0 depending on whether A1 is a % or number, respectively.
Doesn anyone know how I can output in B1 with the format from A1?

I have a consolidation workbook and source files.I would like to convert the data from the source files into a list format in the consolidation workbook.
I have attached a sample of the sheet format of the source files in the attached file, called 'Page 5'. The other 2 sheets are 'Template' and 'Instructions'. The 'Template' sheet is what I imagined would be the list format of the data copied from the 'Page 5' sheet. Instructions is where the lookup table for currency is.
So basically starting from row 8 in 'Template' sheet, I would like to copy and paste from 'Page 5' sheet to 'Template' sheet:
- H2 to A8 & B8
- B2 to C8
- According to the list of currency in 'Instructions' sheet, lookup the currency according to operating unit in C8 and paste to D8
- D5-I5 to E8
- row A8-A23 to column F-N
I actually have had a similar problem before, which Derk has helped me here - link: Use Access or XL? (I've decided to start a new thread because this is a more relevant forum).
I have tried to modify the code but I am rather lost as to which part I am supposed to modify.. Note that in this code, the source data is in separate file instead.

Dim wb As Workbook, f As Worksheet, t As Worksheet, j As Integer, k As Integer, n As Integer
Dim mty As String, yr As Integer, d As Date, bu As String, cur As String, sTodo As Variant
sTodo = Array("Page 5") 'finish adding the names

i = t.Cells(65536, 2).End(xlUp).Row
I have some data coming in from another source system which has the date format as "DD-MM-YYYY" but while pasting it to Excel (2007) sheet some date fields has just DD-MM-YY format which disrupts my macro. I did changing the language settings to "English(UK)" ,which i wanted, and changed the same in Excel options as well. But unfortunately it doesn't work.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm a 2007 user. I am trying to conditional format a range of F1:J10, where F1 will be conditionally formatted relationally to A1. G1 is relational to B1. H2 relational to C2, etc., all the way down to J10 relational to E10. My conditional format formula in cell F1 is >A1*2 (will format F1 as orange). I want to be able to copy the conditional formatting over so the formula in J10 for example would be: >E10*2 (will format it orange).
I omit the "$" in the conditional format formula in an attempt to prevent it from being absolute. But every time I copy the conditional formatting over to the other cells, the formula within those cells remains identical to the formula in the original cell.

I've generated a sheet where, based on the total run hours of a generator set using a given fuel type, we can determine which engine to run on what fuel when. The problem I've run into is that if more than one engine has the same runtime, the chart returns just the lowest numbered engine and eliminates the remaining engine(s). What I'm trying to do is make it so that when this occurs, the suggested engines show up in numerical order. For example instead of 1, 1, and 1 showing up on the chart, something like 1, 2, and 5 will show when they all have 0 run hours. I've attached my chart below with some engines having the same runtimes. RunOrder.xlsx

I would like to prevent the user from inserting rows. I know that ater versions of Excel have built in "Protection" features which would easily accomplish this. Unfortunately, our company uses Excel 2000.
I have keyed in a constant value in cell B100 ("bottom" of the practical range). I have tried ...
Private Sub Worksheet _Change (ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
MsgBox "Range" & Target.Address & "Was Changed."
If Range ("B100").Value = "" Then
Application.Undo
MsgBox ("Do Not Insert or Delete Rows")
EndIf
End Sub.
The problem with the above is: The "Change" macro does not seem to detect the insertion of rows. It does, however, detect the deletion of rows.
I have this code,
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("h15")) Is Nothing Then
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Target.Value = "Ratio" Then
If UF.Visible = False Then
UF.Show
End If
Else
If Target.Value = "Acid Test" Then
Sheet2.Visible = xlSheetVisible
Sheet1.Visible = xlSheetHidden
Sheet2.Activate
Application.Goto Sheet2.Range("A1"), _
Scroll:=True
End If
End If
End If
The code works fine. However, if the target cell contains the word "Ratio", and the user opens the drop down menu in then cell and selects the work "Ratio" again, the userform displays. I only would like the userform to display if the cell went from being blank to "ratio" or from being another value to "ratio".
i would like the other tabs to be still visible to the user (so not hidden), but they should not be able to go to those sheets. (clicking on their name should so nothing)
I am using Excel to maintain a database for a computer game I'm playing. One of the things I'm using it for is to keep track of wages that I'm paying in the game. I do this by keeping the total potential wages in one column. As I only pay an employee when I use him, I then copy the wages over to the next column, where the total actual wages per event is calculated. However, when I copy the value from one column to the next (using the lack cross on the bottom right corner of the cell to drag it to the next) the value sometimes increases by one each time.
This isn't a major annoyance, but I'd like to find a way to prevent it happening at all. Does anyone know how to stop the increase?

A related issue that I experience is that sometimes when I copy or input a value in these columns, it brings up an error message saying "Number Entered As Text". Is there any way I can prevent this? Both these issues occur apparently regardless of formatting, and only on some of the cells, so I don't know quite why there's any problem at all.
How can I protect individual cells in a range from being deleted when I want to delete data from the surrounding cells??
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make a userform in my excel document that will allow the user to select (perhaps from a combo box) and delete a sheet they want. More sheets will be added and so the combo box or whatever should be able to reflect this. It should prevent them from deleting sheets I specify in the code as well. I've had a quick go doing this myself but I decided to start again as I had soo many problems. I think I just did it in a very long-winded fashion, so I would be interested to see what people come up with.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet with a Change Event and a Selection Change Event.
When a cell is changed first the Change Event triggers and after that the Selection Change Event Triggers.
I have implemented a solution whereby I set Application.EnableEvents = False so that the 2nd Selection Change Event does not trigger.
However, the problem is that I need to turn EnableEvents back to True so that it can continue monitoring for events.
Is there a way to either only allow 1 event to trigger? Or is there a way to turn the Events back on after a pause of a 1 second or so?
So I have this table... At the bottom of the table the Outer Fences. There is a column at the end of the table that calculates if the value in the row is outside the fences. I tried to do this by using the cell (say, H1500) in the if statement, but as I continued down the column I noticed that row 2 used H1500, row 3 used H1501, row 4 used H1502, and so on. So I have been just entering the new fence numbers as the data changes. Is there a way to go into the if statement and somehow "lock" the cell value so it doesn't change?

I have a workbook that contains 2 worksheets. The first worksheet contains all the data. The second sheet contains formulas that reference (absolute for all) the first sheet.
I run into problems (actually the users do) when the data set is updated with new information. Sometimes the users will delete all the data rows first and then copy the new data to the blank cells.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI need help with a macro for copying and pasting of cells. I believe this should not be a problem for the Excel VBA experts, but for someone who can only record macro, I'm really at a loss.
Attached is a sample file, where sheet 'Source' is an example of the sheet from which data are to be copied. The other sheet, sheet 'Final' is an example of the final format that I need. The reason I'm doing this is I'm planning to upload my data into Access and so I need to convert them into a list format.
List of target columns in sheet 'Final' and source cells in sheet 'Source':
Column A: Biz ID - not sure if I really need this, by right it should be listed automatically once I paste the data
Column B: B2 of 'Source'
Column C: B2 of 'Source'
Column D: B1 of 'Source'
Column E: row 6, relevant column
column F: column K
column G: row 5, relevant column
column H: the specific amount
So basically I'm creating an entry for every amount in the table.
I've got a workbook with a several pivot tables. For convenience, I've deleted the pivot table source and left the pivots "self-standing". Problem is now when I try to refresh the workbook, I get a "Reference is not valid" error which prevents the workbook from updating.
