Macro Stops Running The Macro Completely And Hangs In The Middle
Jul 3, 2007Here in our department we made a pretty elaborate macro that takes a report and sorts them out to 17 different sheets in a one workbook. This Macro pulls a file from a specific location on our server and then opens the CSV sorts it out color codes all the important information and saves it back onto the server under you specific initials.
They are four PC's along with our Managers laptop that run this Macro daily.
About 3 weeks ago my Managers laptop stops running the Macro completely and hangs in the middle of the whole thing. Eventually crashing Excel.
We try to remove the modules and re-import them back into the personal macro workbork but this does not work. The Macro's did not change and still fully function on the other four desktops to this day.
I uninstall Office on my Managers laptop and reinstall. Import the Modules again and still hangs up in very same spot it did 3 weeks ago.
I've tried to lower the macro security to the lowest level also and I've still had no luck with this laptop. I don't understand. The Macro's function perfectly on other PC's but will not function on this laptop.

May 8, 2013The context of my question is "Invoice Numbering".
I would like to have a sheet where I can have an incremental number. Every time I run the macro it should strikeout the last number and it provides me an incremental number.
I used such a sheet in a previous job and I cannot find it online.
Automatic Macro On Named Cell Change?
Nov 24, 2011I'm in the process of trying to get a macro to run when one cell, named "ImpVersion" changes.
Here's what I've got so far.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = Range("ImpVersion").Address Then
Call Implement
End If
0:
End Sub
The problem I'm having is that ImpVersion doesn't always exist, as it is only added in when it's needed. When ImpVersion doesn't exist, I get a 1004 error.
Faulty Macro Run While Automatic And Correct While Manual (F8)
Aug 1, 2013Is it possible that the very same macro runs kind of incorrectly while it's being run as "automatic" (F5 key) and absolutely correctly while run manually, line by line via F8 key?
I am trying to debug the code but no luck as I get proper results while run manually.
Macro To Create Automatic Backup Of File
Oct 27, 2013Is it possible to create a macro that automatically saves a backup of the excel document in another desired location?
I have this formula:
Sub backupbutton()
Dim fname
fname = "D:" & Format(Now, "dd mmm yy hh mm") & ".xlsm"
ThisWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=fname
End Sub
But that just keeps on making multiple copies of the file rather than overwriting the backup in the D: location.
Also, that particular macro requires me to have to click on a button in order for it to work but I would prefer that it happens automatically when the original file is saved.

Apr 10, 2014I'm trying to get a macro to run when the user presses the save button. I have the following code:
[Code] .......
This code is supposed to apply the TRIM function to every worksheet in the workbook when the user presses save, and the saves the results. I understand the Private Sub bit is the code to have the macro run during the save, but for some reason the macro itself isn't actually running. I'm not getting any error message, its just that the cells which should have the TRIM function applied to them aren't being corrected.

View 3 Replies View RelatedRunning Private Sub From A Macro
Mar 17, 2014I have 3 different sheets with a private sub on each all labelled
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
The macro's runs fine on each page.
I want to put a macro on a separate sheet that i can run each of those macro's
I did initially copy the original private macro and change the
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
to
sub report()
But I couldn't do all 3 in the same manner. i did change each name to something different... the other 2 subs did run, but they didn't do anything except put the massage box on the end saying that "the macro has finished".
The private macros are on sheets 26, 28 and 12.
Running Macro In Different Workbooks
Mar 25, 2014I have 7 different workbooks as part of my daily routine.
At present the first workbook is opened via the task scheduler, and the macro is run using the following code
[Code] .....
This then opens the next workbook and closes the current one. The next workbook then runs its macro again from a timed call
[Code] ...........
This repeats for 7 workbooks. The problem is, if a macro overruns - the whole schedule is out of sync when macro's are called depending on the time. What I would like to do, is link each macro by calling for the next one, and closing the current workbook. However, when i have tried to do this, the macro has always stopped when the workbook has been closed - the next macro doesn't run.
Slow Running Macro
Oct 3, 2007Below is the entire code that I am using. It is a simple routine which checks whether a part has started its release process or not, based upon dates. The code works and does what I want.
The problem that I have is that it is very slow, for example it takes 35 seconds to go through 530 lines items. In my (limeted) experiance, based on other VBA doodlings this slow.

View 3 Replies View RelatedRunning A Macro From A Different Workbook
Dec 18, 2008I have 2 workbooks (Workbook1 and Workbook2).
Workbook 1 contains a button, that calls a macro. This macro calls a macro from Workbook 2.
For this, I am using the Application.Run function.
The Macro in Workbook2 is a simple one line macro that updates cell A2 to a value of 6.
Range("A2").Value = 6
This works fine!
However, I want the the cell A2 in WORKBOOK1 to change to 6, not the cell in Workbook 2.
To add an element of difficulty, Workbook 1 could have any name (I won't know what it is, as the user could change it).
How can I get the Macro in Workbook 2 (Called from Workbook1), to update the cells in Workbook 1.

Confirmation Box Before Running A Macro
Apr 8, 2009How do I ask for a confirmation box before running a macro, but only one time. What I mean is some of the macros I use loop and it wouldn't be practical to click on "ok" for each time the macro ran.
So again I just need some code to tack on to the beginning of a couple of my macros that will ask me before they run but only once.

View 7 Replies View RelatedMacro To Stop Running At Last Row
Aug 10, 2009I have a spreadsheet containing a macro to automatically sum values from week to week and display the max/min and average. This is almost fully working. The problem I have is the macro copies the sum formula down the page and doesn't stop at the last row. It always adds one or two extra rows. The formula should stop at row 77 however this does not happen and therefore the sum keeps going. Which in turn, distorts the max/min figures.

Running Macro On Close

Sub Auto_Close()
FileCopy "C:Documents and SettingsdaveDesktopWorking olderPlanner.xls", "S:LeavePlanner.xls"

I've checked that the Auto_Close feature is what I need, but it just doesn't seem to be running
I've tried it from clicking the x, and also File>Close, but with the same lack of success
Running Macro From Ruby
Dec 16, 2008I have a problem which involves calling an excel macro from another application – in this case, ruby.
$excel.Run "ActionCommands.xlsm!CreateDynamicDataSources"
Here is the simplified macro that it calls
Sub CreateDynamicDataSources()
MsgBox "Hello"
ActiveCell.Select
ActiveCell.Formula = "Hello"
End Sub
The good news is, the macro is indeed being called because the MsgBox is executing. It may even be able to read cells and send the data back to ruby or display it in a message box. The bad news is I can’t select a sheet or cell and actually write to it! When I call this macro from Excel it works as expected. How do I fool Excel (2007) into thinking it’s OK to allow these operations. There is no explicit message that says “Hey this is in read only mode” but I suspect that is what is going on.
Macro Running With Columns From A To H
Jul 3, 2009I have a macro running with columns from A to H and ''infinite'' rows
+conditionnal formating and one formula for the value in column D
I'd like to add one more condition, but I can't figure how...
*I'd like to add a step to the macro on sheet1 to automatically move a whole row (a to h) to sheet2 as soon as my equation in column D find a value = 0
after each row is transfered, i'd like to sort it in a descending order on sheet2 based on the number value in column A
what to add to get this to work
Private Sub WorkSheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub 'Only run if 1 cell is changed
If Target.Column 8 Then Exit Sub 'Only run if change is in Column "F"
If Target = Cells(Target.Row, "A") Then 'Check to see if entry matches column "A"
Else:
MsgBox "Invalid entry"
Application.EnableEvents = False
Application.Undo
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(Target.Row, 8)).Sort Key1:=Cells(2, 8), Order1:=xlDescending
End Sub
