I am in the midst of developing a Userform with a purpose of entering/retreiving and amending data. A rough approximate of about 50 sets of 3 text boxes is required for user to type in data. Is there a kind of limit or performance issues if there are so many text boxes available? What other ways would make it work? Would appreciate some advice from the veterans in this field.

I am attempting to create a spread sheet that will compensate for time zone
differences between the reference point (GMT) and teh user location. I have
come up with a way to do so by creating two user inpput fields for Ahead of
GMT and Behind GMT. My formula calculates the teh exact moment they enter the
desired information and even adds the day if it crosses midnight GMT. The
problem I am having is I use the NOW() funtion to grab the date/time of the
moment of entry. Each subsequent entry on any other field that uses the NOW
function recalculates any entry int the entire workbook that uses the NOW
function. Is there a way to prevent a cell that has already populated from
recalculating when another cell is entered?
Code example:
=IF(E6=0,"--",IF('5 minute'!E6>0,NOW()+TIME('5 minute'!E6,0,0),IF('5
minute'!E7>0,NOW()-TIME('5 minute'!E7,0,0))))
Where E6, E7, E8, etc. is the field that requires imput, '5 minute'!E6 is
the Hours Behind GMT static entry, and '5 minute'!E7 is the static input
Hours Ahead of GMT.
I work in Insurance and have a spreadsheet which requires [oil] values to be entered into Column J. I then have three additional columns (K,L & M) and I require them to do the following:
K: take the value from J but cap it at $100,000,000.
L: take the value from J but have a minimum value of $100,000,000 and a maximum value of $400,000,000.
M: take the value from J but have a minimum value of $500,000,000 and a maximum value of $100,000,000.
For example, if i were to enter a value of $650,000,000 into Column J, Column K should show $100,000,000, Column L should show $400,000,000 and Column M should show $50,000,000. Likewise if I were enter $15,000,000 into Column J, Column K would show $15,000,000, Column L would show $- and Column M would show $-.
I copied this from Excel:
Length of cell contents (text) 32,767 characters. Only 1,024 display in a cell; all 32,767 display in the formula bar.
I have an Address Book from an old Personal Information Manager that exports the file as ASCII.
My problem is when I view the .asc file in Excel, Excel has created two rows for several entries.
That creates a problem as I wanted to select Column "A" then do Text to columns with a comma delimiter (the asc files has the comma in place)
However, since Excel put in the second line, I'll not be able to put in a header column.
When I look at the .asc file there is no way that there is more than 32,767 characters in each row. So why did Excel split it up? ....
what im looking for is when a cell in column A reaches 5 numbers i need it to skip to the next row.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a table that collects its data from another input table. What I want to do is set a maximum in one cell so that when it reaches that limit, it will begin to divert any other 'incoming' amounts to a different cell.
For instance, If I want to fill a room of 50 and then direct others to a different room, I want the spreadsheet to do the allocation for me and fill the other rooms subsequently.
I have a text string concatenated from an array of about 3,500 elements. The concatenation looks something like the following:
sRange = "$A$3,$A$7,$A$8,$A$13, ..."
When I try to set a range with the said string: MyRange = Range(sRange), the system throws an error.
I've seen a few methods in help ("Union" for one) that accept up to 30 arguments. I'm unable to find anything in help that states a limit for MyRange = Range(). It appears that 30 may be the magic number for everything.
I have tried using "Union" and building the range one element at a time from the array. That works, but it's incredibly slow.
Is there any way I can pass my array as the argument directly? Something like: MyRange = Range (MyArray).

Is there any way to remove the 225 characters per call limit in pivot tables? Pivot tables do not allow validation but I need to pivot "Description" cells with a lot of text.

I have a table that I use to generate about 20 graphs. The lower and upper limits can be manually altered in the table. If the user leave those 2 cells empty, I want the upper and lower limits be determined by default by Excel. So that the limits don't have to be entered for every graph in order for the graphs to be generated without any debugging error.

.MinimumScale = y1Lower
.MaximumScale = y1Upper
.MinorUnitIsAuto = True
.MajorUnitIsAuto = True
.Crosses = xlAutomatic
.ReversePlotOrder = False
.ScaleType = xlLinear
.DisplayUnit = xlNone
End With

y1Lower = .Cells(i, j + 9)
y1Upper = .Cells(i, j + 10)
I have created a design in excel and now need to shrink it to fit on 1 page. Is there any way to do this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been reading some threads lately about worksheet design and wanted you advice on something.
I have a worksheet that is about 7.5mb. The details of the worksheet are:
A. 19 total worksheets within workbook, three are visible
B. 1 master worksheet (raw data) that is updated monthly
C. There are 13 worksheets (for each outer office) that pull data from the master.
D. A couple of "Summary" sheets that summarize totals, profits, losses for each area
Situation is this....All code runs fine, but when it's time to save the worksheet it is kind of slow doing so b/c of size.
Would you suggest making a seperate WORKBOOK for the outer offices? I gave this a try yesterday and it worked fine, but I also added code to save once the data was extracted and that part took about 5-6 seconds (I know that's not horrible, but I'm comparing it to previous times).
I am going to attempt to design a production spreadsheet which does the following:
1.Orders are put on one page of the spreadsheet (Order Tab) The order is put on listing, Customer, Sizes, Qty etc
2.The user is then able to select an order and if possible I would like a pop up calendar to appear in which the user can then select a production date.
3.One the production date has been selected I want it to open up a new tab if one doesn’t already exist and then cut the information from the order tab and then paste it into the production day.
I have provided a spreadsheet of what I want to achieve but I am unsure if this is possible.
For some strange reason the workbook I have been using on a daily basis has suddenly decided to go into design mode and stay there. No matter how many times I click the design mode button in and out it always stays in and I can't use my buttons.....it just selects them?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a production report card spreadsheet with numerous checkboxes. Originally I also had text boxes for user input - which I have since removed all of and simply unlocked cells for user input (I protect the spreadsheet). My problem is that now that I have removed ALL of the textboxes - I get the error message "Can't exit design mode because Control 'TextBox3' can not be created." everytime I go to lock the spreadsheet after tweeking or upon opening of the file. I also cannot use the checkboxes now because I am stuck in design mode.
Any thoughts on what might be causing this...or better yet...how to stop the error msg altogether? I googled and no answers...some theories that it was a bug with excel2003...but I find it hard to believe as I found posts for the same message of users of WORD2003...so I am thinking it might be VBA related?
I've created a spreadsheet that has a number of command buttons acting as hyperlinks navigating to other worksheets within the workbook and other files. The buttons only function when in design mode and no matter what I try the document will not open in design mode. For ease of use I wanted to avoid training people on how to go into design mode, anyone aware of a work around?

1. Im TRYING to create a not so simple programme with Excel for My Wifes Creche - She would like to have a programme that, when she gets a phone call from a parent to check availabilty in lets say - 3 months time, it reports back with a number of availabiltys for that date in a specific room.
2. Rooms are broken in 4 categories ( up-to 12 mths old "Baby room" 12 mths to 2 yrs "Wobblers room" 2-4 yrs "Toddlers room and finaly Playschool,)
3.So far what i have done is this =IF(G2<$A$1,"",IF(G2<$A$1039,"Baby",IF(G2<$A$1404,"Wobbler", IF(G2<$A$1770,"Toddler",IF(G2<$A$2290,"Playschool",
which gives me a room from inputting the Date of Birth.
4. ive then used the form button to give me the option to add edit and delete entries from the headings (First name Last name Date of Birth Room -but this will show once DOB is entered.
5. i have tried to run the =COUNTIF(A2:A7,"Baby") to try and get the total baby spaces taken up at a given date however this wont work for me and isnt giving any error message, just a blank cell.
I have been writing VBA code in Excel for about 4 years, but I am self-taught, so I only know what I have had to learn. Recently, I learned that I could run a macro from a cell formula. I created several hundred cells (on multiple worksheets) that include calls to various macros. I only want to run these when I know they need to be updated, not every time I change a cell value.
I turn on Design Mode and try to modify my worksheet (adding or removing columns, rearranging stuff) and some macro(s), somewhere(?) execute every time. This can sometimes take 15-20 seconds for everything to update.
Did I hit some magic key sequence, somewhere? How is it that some of my macros, somewhere are running with Design Mode enabled (and turning it OFF, by the way)?
The spreadsheet I have designed is to be input offshore by one group, and the values that get put in this shared workbook will feed into another shared workbook (for reference and ease, I will call one offshore. book and the other uk.book).
It seems that I have to save the offshore.book (so could I use some autosave code, for every 5mins or so? I dont have the plugin so would have to write it in), then hit update links in the uk.book (again, I presume I could write this so it triggers off every 30mins or so, but can be done manually if required). It seems abit fiddly doing this, but this is the way they wanted it done (my idea was to put into a database, but got out voted).
The figures in the uk.book would simply be a vlookup. However, we do not want the uk team to be able to look at the other book so would the links still work properly? (ie there would only be one open workbook at a time - direct access to each others spreadsheets shouldnt occur.)
