Programmatically Inserting A Worksheet Change Event
Nov 9, 2009
I'm trying to insert a worksheet change event using VBA. I have this sample code from here -
http://www.cpearson.com/Excel/vbe.aspx
Sub CreateEventProcedure()
Dim VBProj As VBIDE.VBProject
Dim VBComp As VBIDE.VBComponent
Dim CodeMod As VBIDE.CodeModule
Dim LineNum As Long
Const DQUOTE = """" ' one " character
Set VBProj = ActiveWorkbook.VBProject
Set VBComp = VBProj.VBComponents("ThisWorkbook")
Set CodeMod = VBComp.CodeModule...................
I have a shared spreadsheet that uses a column with a validation list. I want to be able to take the MS Office Username contained in Tools > Options to be put into a cell A1 when changing the value of A2.
Is there a way to write a Worksheet_SelectionChange (ByVal Target As Range) event in module after creating a sheet in VBA? I constantly delete a sheet, then repopulate it with a new one that is empty, but I need to add some code that happens if they should change a particular cell. It worked when I ran it on a worksheet without refreshing, but as soon as I cleared and repopulated the sheet, it was gone. Is there a way to preserve this?
Attached is book in which, when a choice is selected from Drop Down list in ColumnF the macro has to do the need.
When the macro was written it was working well. But when I tried to change it as a Worksheet_SelectionChange event nothing is happenning even though a choice is selected from drop down list.
Basically the situation I have is Sheet2 has many references to cells in Sheet1. Sheet2 is for all intents and purposes a kind of nicely formatted report form, and Sheet1 is the input form.
My ultimate goal is to automatically resize row heights on Sheet2 when cell contents change on Sheet2.
Using a worksheet_change event isn't working I presume because it doesn't see the formula output change as a worksheet change, the worksheet_change is firing only when the input is changed in Sheet1.
how can I capture these formula output changes on Sheet2 (triggered from input on Sheet1) OR is there a way of making a particular sheets rows always adjust in height to best fit?
In cell A1, I have the month number (eg, 1, 2, 3,). The month number reflects current month and will automatically change with every month. For example, right now it’s 6, next month it will automatically change to 7. Each two columns in Range A10:X20 represents the data from January to December. I want to use a worksheet event to change the background of the current month two columns in the range to yellow color and the two columns in the range will be visible when I activate this sheet.
looking to only allow a check ("x") in a column for a reconcile - type worksheet. Am I close?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) 'Data protection. Only allow "x" in the "cleared" column. If anything else is entered, a message box informs the user 'and the cell contents are cleared. Dim val As Variant Dim msg As String If ActiveCell.Value "x" Then msg = "You can only enter an X in the cleared column." ActiveCell.ClearContents End If End Sub
trying to get a worksheet change event to work. Basically the code below calls the time_start procedure when cell J16 downwards is selected.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Row > 15 And Target.Column = 10 Then
Call time_start Else End If
End Sub
However, I am lost from here on....Let me try and explain what it is I am trying to do. This seems so simple if you know how. Each time that the word "Completed" is entered in to a cell from J16 onwards, the cell two columns to the right on the same row is selected and the current date is entered.
If the word "Completed" is deleted, I want the date on that row to be deleted.
I would also like the choices "Completed" and a blank cell to be given in a validation list via a dropdown if possible to avoid occurances of "Complete" etc and mis-spellings but I understand that a bug may stop me from using this functionality. I am running Excel 2002 on a Windows XP Professional OS.
I have the below vba and would like to have the '''event calculated ''' on any event on the worksheet. Right now it only update if updating the val1 thru val6 cells. How can i get the worksheet to update on any event or change on the sheet?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) On Error Resume Next fr = Range("a65536").End(xlUp).Row Set Rng = Range("a2" & ":n" & fr) If Intersect(Target, Rng) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
I have looked at the threads concerning cell change events but cannot find a solution to my situation. I have a worksheet with a cell using a validation list. I wish to exicute a procedure whenever the dropdown list is changed in that one cell. Everything I have seen in the Worksheet event threads is evaluating the contents of a cell and I am attempting to exicute if the cell changes.
I have a spreadsheet with a table of values in range E5 to T158.
A macro populates the table by looking up values on other sheets in the book. If the macro finds a value in the lookup for Row 7 of any column (ie E7,F7...T7) it populates the rest of the column with that value (E7 value gets pasted to E8:E158) THEN it protects the cells it pasted (E8:E158).
If the macro does NOT find a value for row 7, it simply skips it, leaving it blank, and continues to row 8 until it reaches row 158 of each column E to T.
I want to give the user flexibility with these values. So if the user either deletes E7 or changes the value of the contents in E7, I want to unprotect the cells of rows 8 to 158 for that column.
I have created a
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
in the private module for that sheet below. I thought it was working but it isn't doing anything when I change or delete the value in Cell E7 for example. Please help!
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
'Do nothing if more than one cell is changed If Target.Cells.count > 1 Then Exit Sub 'Or IsEmpty(Target)
I'm trying to create a worksheet change event macro that will change the colour of the cell when you update the value in that cell.
I have column C with 140 rows and when one of the cells in the column is changed by the user, I need the same cell to highlight in yellow. The highlight would then be removed once the user has acted on the change in the value, and that'll be done in another macro.
I understand I need a worksheet change event macro in the specific sheet and need the following code for yellow:
Code: .Interior.Color = RGB(255,255,0)
, but any further I get stuck as it involves 'target addresses'
combine two Worksheet Change event macros into the one macro? The macros are listed below.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)On Error GoTo exitHandler Dim rngDV As Range Dim lRow As Long Dim lCol As Long
[Code]...
exitHandler:
Application.EnableEvents = True End Sub Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Not Intersect(Target, Range("O:O")) Is Nothing Then Application.EnableEvents = False
I have the following code that should pop up a message when column E is left blank when "other" is typed into column D. But I cannot get it to work.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim rng As Range, LastRow As Range Dim x As Integer If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub Set rng = Range("F:F") If Intersect(Target, rng) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub If Target = "" Then For x = 1 To 5000 If Cells(x, 4).Value = "Other" And Cells(x, 5).Value = "" Then Answer = MsgBox("If other, please state", vbOKCancel, "CONFIRMATION") End If Next x End If End Sub
In Col D of my spreadsheet, I have a list of security codes, in this list there is a security code "all", i need a macro that will add 1 to the code, so it reads "all1", now i need the macro to run as soon as new data is pasted to sheet "Lending", the ranges in Col D do change on a daily basis therefore cell reference for security codes is not fixed.
I am using Excel 2007, and I have a macro (that is working) that I would like to run whenever there has been a new selection in a dropdown list on my worksheet. I have done this many times before in other workbooks, and I have always used:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
End Sub
To my knowledge this should trigger the macro when the dropdown selection changes. However, this time it is not working. The macro runs fine manually, but it does not run when the dropdown selection changes.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
'Define the RMAs range and count the RMA ships. Do the rest of the math based on this calculation. Dim intRMACol As Integer, EndRow As Integer, intRMAShips As Integer, LastCol As Integer Dim rngRMAs As Range, rngHome As Range, sht As Worksheet Set sht = ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet Set rngHome = Cells(1, 1) rngHome.Activate EndRow = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row intRMACol = Cells.Find(What:="RMA#", After:=[A1], SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, SearchDirection:=xlNext).Column Set rngRMAs = rngHome.Offset(1, intRMACol - 1).Resize(EndRow, 1) rngRMAs.Name = "RMAs" rngHome.Offset(1, LastCol + 1).Formula = "=COUNTA(RMAs)" intRMAShips = rngHome.Offset(1, LastCol + 1).Value rngHome.Offset(1, LastCol).Formula = "=SUM((" & EndRow & " - 1) - " & intRMAShips & ")" rngHome.Offset(1, LastCol + 2).FormulaR1C1 = "=SUM(RC[-2] : RC[-1])" End Sub
I keep getting stuck when trying to set the intRMACol variable. I have used the code all over the place, but only in Modules, never on a worksheet event. EndRow, the variable right above, sets correctly so I don't get it.
Also, do I have to define the Target variable? Am I going about this the right way? I basically want three formulas to calculate when any change is made on the worksheet.
I have this code working fine. It applies conditional formating to two rows ((K3:K65) and (J3:J65)) and checks when a value changes in row B to reaplpy the formatting. I'd like to had add more columns to it. It would have apply the same conditonal formatting on rows ((O3:O65) and (P3:P65)) but when a value changes in row (N3:N65)
So basically, I want to keep the first working part of the code and have it to check at more rows with a different reference for the conditionnal formatting.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim rng As Range Dim rngJ As Range If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub Set rng = Union(Range("B3:B65"), Range("J3:J65")) If Intersect(Target, rng) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub Set rngJ = Range("K" & Target.Row) Select Case rngJ.Value Case "" rngJ.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone rngJ.Offset(0, -1).Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone Case Is >= 20.............................
I am trying to make a macro run automatically based on info entered in a cell. The problem is I need this code on at least three separate sheets in the work book. It doesent work when I try to use the same basic code. The code I am using is below.
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim lLastRow As Long Dim rgArea As Range, rgCell As Range Dim COL_B As Integer COL_B = 2 Dim COL_X As Integer COL_X = 24 Dim ROW_FIRST As Long ROW_FIRST = 5
' Find the last row of date in the "Approved" worksheet lLastRow = FindLastRow(SZ_WS_APPROVED, COL_B)
' Set a reference to the changed cells in column X Set Target = Intersect(Target, Range(Cells(ROW_FIRST, COL_X), Cells(lLastRow, COL_X))).........................
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel. Range) Dim S As String, X As Variant, n As Long If Target.Column <> 3 Or Target.Cells.Count <> 1 Then Exit Sub If IsEmpty(Target) Then Exit Sub S = Target.Text On Error Goto Reset n = Application.Substitute(S, "-", "") On Error Goto Reset Application.EnableEvents = False X = Application.Match(n, Workbooks("Database.xls"). Sheets("Products").Range("B1:B14000"), 0) If IsNumeric(X) Then Target.Offset(0, -1) = Workbooks("Database.xls").Sheets("Products").Cells(X, 1).Value Else............................
But each time i add it in, it ether's turns off the second statement and second works or vice versa. How can make both codes work at the same time without conflicting each other.
I am trying to do a conditional format of 0 to 2 is red, 3 to 4 is yellow and 5 is green. However I also need to have a cell that is blank to remain white and this is the part I am having problems with.
I found the following code since I cannot use the standard conditional formating in excel since it needs 4 conditions.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim icolor As Integer
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("H3:H12")) Is Nothing Then Select Case Target Case 0 To 2 icolor = 3 Case 3 To 4 icolor = 6 Case 5
This is my Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("D6:D6000")) Is Nothing Or Intersect(Target, Range("D6:D6000")) = "" Then If Intersect(Target, Range("F6:F6000")) Is Nothing Or Intersect(Target, Range("F6:F3000")) = "" Then If Intersect(Target, Range("I6:I6000")) Is Nothing Or Intersect(Target, Range("I6:I6000")) = "" Then Exit Sub Else
Do Something...... End If End If End If End Sub
when excution comes to this line If Intersect(Target, Range("D6:D6000")) Is Nothing Or Intersect(Target, Range("D6:D6000")) = "" Then
a run time error (91) appears, it tells object variable or with block variable not set.
I have a code where column K is not responding to a value being deleted out of column J. I've highlighted the portion of the code dealing with this. Deletion should trigger the worksheet_change event to clear out column K as it's supposed to. how to get deletion to take effect?
This is part of a macro in a worksheet_change event. When a cell in column J gets deleted by a user, the corresponding cell in column K should also clear. But it's not responding to the delete.
It DOES clear when the other 2 criteria are met (.cells(1,10) = 0 and .cells(i,5) <> "Annuity"). The worksheet_change event should pick up on the cell deletion, but it's not. And column J is already a trigger for the macro to run, so I'm not sure what's going on. Either the trigger is still wrong, the isempty(.cells(i,10)) is not correct syntax, or this event just doesn't respond to cell deletion.
I have a workbook with 33 worksheets (31 date tabs and a Month To Date and Year To Date tab)
I want to have a clickable cell on each of the 1-31 date tabs to point to the MTD
I know I could do this easily with a hyperlink but I would rather have a clickable cell.
I have achieved this on an individual worksheet using the following code
Code: Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range) If Not Intersect(Target, Range("$R$3")) Is Nothing Then Sheets("MTD").Select End Sub
My question is: Do I have to copy this to every single worksheets code or is there some way have all sheets read the same private sub? (I guess it negates the point of a "private sub")
Way to do this as it would make editing any changes easier than having to do it 31 times.
I'm trying to run a macro anytime cells G2, J2, M2, O2, P2, S2, V2, Y2, AB2, AE2, AH2, AK2, AN2, AQ2 change.
Right now I have the below code which is working well, but I only have it set for G2. Do you know what the notation is to make the target range multiple cells?
Also, I use the xlDown command in my sorting code, but later on it reverts back to "A5:AT60"... is there any way I can remove these specific cell references? I want to avoid having to re-write the macro every time my selection shrinks or expands.
Code: Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Not Intersect(Target, Range("G2")) Is Nothing Then Rows("5:5").Select
