Progress Bar :: Ambiguous Name Detected
Nov 2, 2006
I want to include a progress bar in my macro and have got the code from another website. However, after the progress bar is displayed i cannot get it to move to the next line of code in the module. In the example i've got, the code in the user form window simply calls a sub called "main" and continues on through that sub. Whenever i call one of my sub routines an error box states" ambiguous name detected". This never happens with the sub called "main"? Why is this happening? A portion of the code is shown below. After "userform1.show", the user form is displayed but the program will not move on to "get_blades" sub routine?
Browse_Folder
' Sub routine "browse_folder" selected to select folder
' containing the mea files.
UserForm1.LabelProgress.Width = 0
UserForm1.Show
' HourGlass
get_blades (lookinname)
' Use sub routine get_blades
Range("T3").Select
sort_data

I need to use both of these VBA scripts in my excel project. The first is this:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Sheets("Sheet2").Range(ActiveCell.Address).Value = 1 Then
ActiveCell.Interior.ColorIndex = 3
End If
End Sub
The second is this:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim lScrollRow As Long
Dim lScrollColumn As Long
Dim lTargetRow As Long
Dim lTargetColumn As Long
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
lScrollRow = ActiveWindow.ScrollRow
lScrollColumn = ActiveWindow.ScrollColumn..................
When I enter both into the script box and then try to run it, it says that there is a compile error with an "ambiguous name detected "worksheet_selectionchange"

my macros to search for the word "Cancel" in columns "T". Once found, I need the macros to make that entire row a certain pattern ( .Pattern = xlGray16)
There will be other wording in these cells that contain "Cancel" or "Cancelled".
A compile error keeps occurring. It says "Ambiguous name detected: FormatCell"..

Option Explicit
Public Const ARK As String = "Inddata-ARK"
Public Const VVS As String = "Inddata-VVS"
Public Const KON As String = "Inddata-KON"
Public Const EL As String = "Inddata-EL"
Public Const LD As String = "Inddata-LD"
Public Const KØL As String = "Inddata-KØL"
Public Const OpDat As String = "Opdatering"
And then macro's under it... So the aboce is in module "INIT_S". Now in another module "RUN_P" I have a sub-rutine that uses these constants with a select case.
Likes this:
Sub OpEksInitNu()
Select Case ActiveSheet. Name
Case ARK
With OpEks
'more stuff
Case VVS
'more stuff
Case KON
'more stuff
End Sub
But when I try to run OpEksInitNu i comes with ambigious name with ARK as the error, later down I use another public constant. But i keep getting the ambigious name error.. What could cause that... I have tried to locate all ARK, VVS etc. to try to determine if it is used later on, but it's not! I only declare the constants one time, and no module is called ARK, VVS etc.

Hello, Im using a script that allows me to autocomplete a data validation list using a combo box and the code shown below. However I am getting a compile error ambigous name detected and the following line is highlighted
"Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)"
I know its because this is used twice but I am not sure what to do in order to fix this.

Receiving the following error:
Compile Error:
Ambiguous name detected: Worksheet_Change
How can I resolve this? Is there a way to combine these two (2) statements?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$O$3" Then
Range("B2:L13").ClearContents
Range("A17:A27").Copy
Sheets("Letter").Range("A16:A26").PasteSpecial xlValues
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "TextBody" Then
Range("A17:A27").Copy
Sheets("Letter").Range("A16:A26").PasteSpecial xlValues
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End If
End Sub

I'm running a sheet with three pieces of code (all blagged from these forums thank you) Two of the sub procedures have the same name "worksheet_change which generate an ambiguous name error. This I sort of understand. However I've tried changing the second one of the subs names to "worksheet_change1" and whilst the ambiguous name error goes away the sub routine then fails to function.

I've got two macros that work beautifully apart from one another ... but put the two in the same Excel workbook and they bump heads. I get the infamous "Ambiguous name detected: Worksheet_Change"
I know enough about VB to get myself into trouble. So, I'm asking for help from a talented person to show me how to combine the two ... or another work around to get through this.
Here are the two sets of code in my sheet that I think are causing the ambiguous name problem. How can I work around this error?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim varFind As Variant
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Target.Column 2 And Target.Column 9 Then Exit Sub
If IsEmpty(Target) Then Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 0
If Target.Column = 2 Then
Set varFind = Columns(16).Find(What:=Target.Value, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlWhole)
If varFind Is Nothing Then
Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 0
Else
Target.Interior.ColorIndex = Cells(varFind.Row, 16).Interior.ColorIndex
End If
End If

I was told that the following code would enable my macro to execute every time the user interacts with anything Excel:
Code:
' Repeatedly check for user interaction whenever a change is detected
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Call TestMacro
End Sub
It doesn't work...
To put it into context, he is my entire program:
Code:
Sub TestMacro()'
' TestMacro Macro
'
' Create string variable
Dim undoText As String
' Assign the text to string variable
[Code] ......
My being new to VBA doesn't work in the situation as my programming instincts tell me to set up an infinite loop to continually check for interaction something like the following:
Code:
while( x == 1 )
{
do MY_CODE;
if( USER_CLOSES_EXCEL )
x == 0;
} // end while
However, Excel is apparently 'Event Driven' so I'd love to know how to use this to my advantage in keeping my macro running.

I've run into a problem detecting empty cells. I'd like to search down a column of numbers and count the cells that contain numbers and ignore the cells that are empty. If the cells were made empty of their data by manually using the delete key before hand then my macro works fine. The problem is if the cells were manually made empty using the space bar to clear their contents.. then the macro seems unable to detect them as empty.
I have tried "", IsEmpty, and a few other things and nothing detects the cell as empty unless the delete key is used rather than the space bar. For this macro I really need the user to be able to clear values beforehand using the space bar, and to have those cleared cells be detected as empty cells.

I'm trying to come up with an efficient formulae or function to calculate tax
The problem I have is that the tax is progressive. As below
the first 20,000 is taxed at 5%
the next 20,000 is taxed at 6%
the next 20,000 is taxed at 7%
the next 20,000 is taxed at 8%
the next 20,000 is taxed at 9%
more than 100,000 is taxed at 10%
I'm trying to do a formula like below
Cell B3 is my taxable amount
Cell B5 =IF(B$3>20000,20000*0.05,B$3*0.05)
Cell B6 =IF(B$3>40000,40000*0.05,(B$3-20000)*0.05)
This gives me a problem in that for 35k say, I end up with a negative number for the second part in cell B6. My other issue is that each calculation will take up 6 rows on my
spreadsheet. I was hoping to set up a function that could do this in a cell, but even the simple stage defeats me at the moment.

I have a code that has a loop with up to 100,000 possible iterations. The max number of iterations, N, is variable and to be specified by the user via user form.
That's why I like to show only incremental progress , say 5% competed , 10% completed ,... , so on. What is the best way to code it?
Another question: I tried to show it via
Application.StatusBar = Format(PctDone, "#.##%") & " completed"
but for some reason it does not get updated while the code is running. Is that because the user form is visible? For now, I'm trying to add a label progress bar to the user form, but StatusBar would suffice.

I'm using a mostly recorded macro to do some rather lengthy formatting in a workbook. The formatting is lengthy enough that I don't want people to think the PC is hung. So I'd like to use the progress bar. I'm trying to trim the code down to just the bare essentials for running the progress bar during the macro procedure (and so I can better understand what's happening in the code). The attachment shows what I've done so far. When I press the "Format Workbook" button then I have to press another button ("Run Progress Meter") to really launch the progress bar.

I am using the following code to activate a progress bar.
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
Dim dTime As Date
Dim i, t As Integer
For i = 1 To 100 Step 100 / 8
dTime = Now + TimeValue("0:00:01")
Application.Wait TimeValue(dTime)
ProgressBar1.Value = i
Next i
End Sub
This works fine and the progress bar moves in 8 steps.
However, I want to include this into a module of code and it moves along according to how far down the module my code is running.

Is there a possibility of displaying a progress bar till the userform is loaded.
Google search has shown me ways to create a progress bar using Excel Forms. However, I am looking for a way to show the progress bar till the main userform is loaded.
