Just wondering if it is possible to have a formula in a cell but over write it with other digits while preserving the underlying formula?
I can lock the sheet/workbook but cant edit the cells once this is done?
I'm hoping to be able to delete what ever I have overwritten and for the formula to then take effect again.
I have a table of data 300 rows long with protected formulas in adjacent columns and at the bottom of the column. Some of the data cells are blank but the non-blank cells are contiguous and start at the top of the range (see Before Example).
a macro that would allow users to insert a blank cell at any point in the data table without losing any of the other data or disrupting the formulas. In other words I want to move all the data from that point to the bottom of the range down by 1 row. A before and after example for a smaller 10 row data set is shown below.
Before
AB1data aformula 12data bformula 23data cformula 34data dformula 45data eformula 56data fformula 67 formula 78 formula 89 formula 910 formula 1011formula Aformula B
After
AB14data aformula 115data bformula 216data cformula 317data dformula 418data eformula 519 formula 620data fformula 721 formula 822 formula 923 formula 1024formula Aformula B
I was trying to use Sheet1 (data input sheet) to collect 33 values and write them to Sheet2 as a row. I wanted the user to be able to make changes/corrections. So if the set of data with same date and shift number is entered for a second time, my macro should be able to over-write the existing row in Sheet2. Have been digging for days yet with no avail.
I'm using Win XP pro and Excel 2003.
I am trying to create a macro which copies the data of one column every time I click on it. However, every time I click on it I overwrite the data I already copied. What do I have to do, that instead of overwriting my data it copies it to the next free column.
See example attached. Macro example.xlsx
if i run my macro that saves a sheet as a certain name and then prints it, it works, but if i run my macro and the file already exists it asks me to overwrite it. If i select yes it prints it and carrys on with the rest of the macro, (good). If i select no the macro fails. How can i get it so if i hit no, it runs the rest of the macro after the print command?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've struggled to find the code to unzip files using VBA but I finally found it and it works (using Shell).
The problem is that I want to unzip all zip files in a folder but my zip files contain 3 files:
1 csv file that I want to keep and 1 xml and 1 txt file that I want to delete.
I can't just unzip everything and deal with the txt and xml later because the xml and txt files all have the same name. So if I don't do anything, I have a series of overwriting messages prompting me to click yes or no. So what I want is either to delete xml and txt one by one after they are created or get rid of the overwriting prompt. I've tried to put a kill or delete file just after the unzip command but it doesn't work - it's telling me that the txt file doesn't exist (should I add some sort of refreshing command ?) and I couldn't find anything on google about overwriting text or xml files.
I've just written a bit of looping vba script that generates an overwrite alert (i.e. "Output range will overwrite existing data. Press OK to overwrite..."). This is fine and was purposely built into the script, but I want to be able to automatically ignore these alerts and loop through the script unhindered.

However I need it to check if there is a sheet already existing in the other workbook with todays date first. If there is then it should delete the old sheet and copy the new sheet or just overwrite it.

I would like to code a Userform Command button to save data by overwriting a specific row of data. The specific row is to be based on data matching in column A and column B. I'll give an example
Worksheet = "Failures"
Row 1 - Column A - Column B - Value
Row 2 - 12/3/2012 - FOX ------ 23
Row 3 - 12/3/2012 - CEF ------ 24
Row 4 - 12/3/2012 - COT ------ 23

Row 6 - 13/3/2012 - COT ------ 23
Row 7 - 14/3/2012 - FOX ------ 26
I would like the code that would search for the specific row (e.g Row 5 discovered by searching for 13/3/2012 and FOX) in the "Failures" Worksheet and then overwrite it with the following data values from a Userform called "QC"
(TextBox1) (TextBox2) (TextBox3)
13/3/2012 --- FOX -------- 24
i have searched this and can't find exactly what i'm looking for. I am hoping some one can alter a piece of script i am using. See script below. Currently it adds a comment in a text box to a new row and i would like it to add it to the end ( cell 15) of the last row used, not a new row. I am a newbie to VBA and am self teaching so the obvious is not really obvious.
Private Sub cmdErrorButton_Click()
Dim iRow As Long
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Worksheets("Log Book Data")
'find first empty row in database
iRow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, 1) _
.End(x1up).Offset(1, 0).Row
'copy the data to the database
ws.Cells(iRow, 15).Value = Me.txtError.Value
ws.Cells(iRow, 14).Value = Now()
End Sub
I have a spreadsheet where there is an option to either select a pre-priced item from a drop down list or type in manual entries. If the data is entered manually, I have included a formula to obtain cost data. For example, column A has the number of labor hours and column B multiplies Column A by $500. However, if a person chooses to select a pre-priced item from the drop down menu, can the pre-entered data from the VLookup list overwrite the formula? I do want it to overwrite if it is possible for it to do so.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet that's generated from a download. I need to modify one column of cells based on multiple criteria. Started to try with a nested If statement, but soon passed the limits allowed. Not sure if some kind of VLookup or VBA formula. To summarize what I'm looking for: If column A has a value of any of the following (10D, 11Z, 10Z, 2CS), then I need to change the Rate in column D based on the Years left to maturity in column B. The Rate percentage to be used is based upon the table shown in the attached spreadsheet. In addition, there is an exception if Column A has a value 2CB and an inventory # of 9300276 or 9300277 in column C, then I need to change the rate in column D based on the table as well. Otherwise the rates stay as originally imported.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have an Excel sheet that I convert to PDF --here is Example of the name after PDF creates"Morning Report_08.16.14" , When it runs it just overwrites the file automatically if one was already on that date - I would like it to prompt to overwrite & if they choose 'yes' to overwrite the file and if not they can change the name If the new one is in addition to the one that already exists and I want it to save the new file with in the same folder.
Also when the current code is run if the PDF was left opened it stops the macro - Is it possible to see if that file is open and if so close it down so the code will work or is it possible to overwrite the file when open.

I want to be able to enter a value into a cell (within a specified range) and have it automatically multiply by a set value and overwrite the original entry with the result so making it all happen within one cell. The set value would be another cell on that sheet.
So the range for example is "H17:H74" and the value I want to multiply by is "D8"
Is this possible?
I've looked at another forum but it wasn't working when I wanted to define the set value as a cell.
I can't get the Displayalerts = False to work as it's supposed to when analyzing data running the correlation add-in. (ATPVBAEN.XLAM!Mcorrel)
For each loop the alert is displayed which I don't want it to.
The code below is just an example. I have several rows which I will loop through and therefore the Displayalerts=False must work.

. ScreenUpdating = False
.DisplayAlerts = False
.EnableEvents = False
End With

I presently have a macro that, when run, takes to conents of C4 and C6 and saves a new version of the file being worked on into a folder on my desktop. I love the macro with the exception of one part: I don't want to be prompted to overwrite the file if it already exists. How can I change this macro so that, when pressed, it overwrites the file without prompting the user and waiting for their answer?

I am using a lot of linked reports that have to be rewritten each month. For example smaller formulas look like this:
=('S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$228*2)+'S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$262+'S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$292
What I want to do is extract the file path from the above formula and make it a composite of several cell references.
So what I need is to have a cell where they can change the month and another where we can change the year. So I set up several named cells that look like this:
_MONTH =11 November
_YEAR =2013
_JOBCARD ='S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING
_PATH =_JOBCARD & _YEAR &"" &_MONTH
I tried several versions, I am hoping for something like this:
=('_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$228*2)+'_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$262+'_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$292
I've found a few macros that will automate changing cell references from absolute to relative and they work great. However, when I run the macros on formulas that have references to another worksheet or workbook, the macro will not work correctly.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to automate creating certain keyword combinations I need, based off of the values I input into reference cells in columns A - E; the goal is to compile a list of keywords which I will then use to track my rankings in search engines.
I'm looking to only output 500 keywords, so some of the cells in columns A, B, C & E will not contain data (column D will always have a primary Geo-target listed). This results in some of the concatenate formulas I've created outputting partial data (i.e. if there is no data in cell A10, and cell D2 contains the word "Knoxville", then cell I10 will output the data, "Knoxville "). How can I setup conditioning formatting or a formula so that these auto-generated cells appear blank if one of the reference cells has no data within it?The reason why I need the above to work is because I want to setup a formula that automatically counts the # of keyword combinations created by the data entered into any of the reference cells. With the partial combinations being listed, it skews my data. Which leads me to my next question: what is the best formula for counting the # of cells containing a full keyword combination from any of the cells listed in columns G - O (minus the data in the header cells; i.e. G1, H1, etc...)?Lastly, is there a formula I could use that would then aggregate all of the full keyword combinations within the "Complete Keyword List" column (column P)?
I am running Excel 2007 on Windows Vista Business 32 bit. Recently I have noticed that if I enter a formula into an empty, unsused cell, it is recognized as a formula. If I modify that formula, it is then recognized as text and does not work as a formula. The only way I can get the cell to recognize a formula is to delete the cell and start over. This same scenario does not occur on previously stored workbooks. I have checked all of the flags that I know about, including the Options function.
