Excel 2010 :: Crash - Ready Calculate Flashing Taskbar When Closing / Opening Userform

Jan 8, 2014

Excel will hang up as if it's gone into a continuous loop (Although no looping macros are active) when you open or close a user form. The task bar in Excel will flash Ready Calculate. Visual basic reports no code is running but excel either crashes or becomes very unresponsive. I have to exit and reopen excel in order to fix the problem . It also doesn't happen at any one specific point it can vary. I have various VLOOKUPs around the workbook and userforms display the correct information. I use the INDEX formula in the control source of textboxes. I also use the offset formula to make sure DTPICKER displays correctly.

I am using 'Option Explicit' at the start of all my code. I have tried a 3rd party code cleaner. No visual Basic references are MISSING

Random Color Msgbox / Userform

Apr 13, 2014

Is there a way to change the color of a msgbox? My option then appears to build a userform that basically does the same thing but allows me color selection.

Why is this important? I have a quasi-legal disclaimer that pops up every time the workbook is opened the first time (via a template). My boss has commented that after the first couple of times folks just blow through it without reading it (which is a fair comment).

My thoughts are to randomly change the color every time it opens, hoping that it might catch their attention. How do you control the text color to make sure it stays readable?

Hide Userform When Opening Another Workbook

Aug 7, 2008

I have a userform on a worksheet. Now, I open anothe workbook, the userform still stays on top of all the workbooks. However, if I open a new workbook(new instance of excel), then it does not show. I need the userform to be a part of the excel which I open. not for all workbooks.

Few comments before I complete: This was working as intended. All of a sudden, I messed up with the code and it burnt out. Secondly, the ShowModel of userform is set to False as I need to hide the workbook when userform opens. Hence, I cannot set that to true.

Display Random Numbers As Generated On UserForm

Jan 28, 2008

I have developed some VBA code which produces a 'lucky number' using the RND function. The final number is produced by concatenating three individually generated random numbers between zero and 9. When the code is written in a Module, I can display each number as it is generated, by 'pausing' the macro with a For Next loop.

I have now developed a similar application using a MultiPage Userform, but the individual numbers are not displayed when I use exactly the same code. The only way I have found to display each number as it is generated is to use

Application.Wait

However the shortest wait time seems to be 1 second, which is too long. I would like to be able to make the MultiPage version look like the Module version.

I attach a workbook which shows both of the above.

Show UserForm Upon Opening File/Workbook

Oct 17, 2006

I have a range named "start" and I have a form named "fMenu". I have used this same code in other spreadsheets to have the userform automatically become visible when the spreadsheet is opened and it works in other workbooks. Apparently I have been struck with the stupid stick this morning. I have a hotkey of "M" and when I use control M the form shows up and the macros invoked by each button on the form are working properly.

Sub open_menu()
Application.Goto "start"
fMain.Show
End Sub

Opening Word Doc From Within Excel Using VBA

Aug 22, 2013

I have a database list, and run a bunch of formatting, inserting, formulas etc., to be able to have a Word Mail Merge be able to run against the data when finished. I'm automating the process and want to be able to open the Word document when the Excel piece is done, so the user doesn't have to navigate to the file manually.

Since Excel doesn't seem to automatically 'see' Word docs in the Open File dialog list, my Open File code below is getting an error of "File Format is Not Valid":

ChDir "O:UAIBDCustomer RelationsIDHome Office Indexing"
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"O:UAIBDCustomer RelationsIDHome Office IndexingID Home Office Indexing Mail Merge Template TESTING.docx"

Opening OpenOffice Spreadsheet In Excel?

Mar 22, 2013

Is it possible to open an OpenOffice spreadsheet in Excel while keeping all formulas?

At the minute when I try this, Excel just opens the spreadsheet with the values of each cell from OpenOffice (the results of the formulas) and not the actual formulas themselves.

Excel 2008 :: Opening Asp Files?

Nov 7, 2013

I have Mac 2008 Excel. For my work, I download .asp files and open them in Excel. No problem. The problem is... I'm wanting to use another computer at work that has Mac 2011. When I open the exact same .asp files, they show coding (html?). I can fix this by changing the name of the file extension from ".asp" to ".xls." But I convert these files a lot during the day and this is an extra step I don't want to take. And it works fine in version 2008. So what can I do in version 2011 to make it open the files without all the coding?

Opening TXT Files In Same Excel Sheet

Jul 30, 2014

I would like to be able to open multiple .txt files into one excel document. I had been using a code that opened all the files I wanted into a NEW excel document. I have a template that I use and I want the files to open in sheets following the main template sheet. This is what I have been using:

Sub CombineTextFiles()
Dim FilesToOpen
Dim x As Integer

[Code]...

And it worked just fine for that purpose but how could I edit this?

how I could use VBA to make a table out of data that would be cool too.

Opening External Files In Excel?

I have a drawing index in excel sheet as shown below "there are thousands rows but here is only an example":

FILEID

brd213962-1-1.pdf
SPECIAL PIPE SUPPORT DRAWING

And in the same folder I have all the drawings in PDF format and all the drawing are exactly named as listed under FILEID column.

I just want to click the drawing number in the excel sheet and get the drawing opened automatically.

Currently what I am doing is searching the index for a particular drawing and then searching the folder for that drawing to open.

Excel Files Opening As Different/new File

Jan 12, 2010

I'm using Excel 2007. I didn't change a single option but for some reason this problem came up. When I open an already saved Excel file it opens up in a newly created file. For example, if I open a file saved as "Monthly Sales" it will open it up and rename it as "Monthly Sales1." When I go to save it again, which would normally just save it where it currently sits, it basically acts as if I hit Save As and pops up the box asking me where I want to save it. This is extremely annoying as most of the places where these files are saved are several folders deep which makes it time consuming every time I open and alter a file. I can't find any options that looks something like this and it only happens in Excel.

Excel 2010 :: Random Numbers In One Function

Jul 22, 2012

I'm currently working on my masters dissertation and am using excel 2010.

Basically, I'm trying to generate a list of say, 1000 numbers within a range. I can already do this using the rand() function. However, I need excel to take each random number, apply it into a formula, and then list the answers in a seperate location. This would be easy to do if there was one simple function (which i could just insert into any adjacent cell). The problem is that each random number value is input into a table. The table, which has about 10 columns and 200+ rows, gives one final answer.

I'm sure there has to be a faster way than creating 1000 tables for each random number generated.

Let's say I have a list of 1000 random numbers in sheet 1. the function table is in sheet 2 and produces the answer in the same sheet, in a single cell. I'd like excel to use each random number generated, input it into the function table, attain the answer from the table, and list it in the cell next to the random number.

Excel No Longer Opening CSV Files Correctly

Feb 7, 2013

All of the sudden, I've started having issues on one PC with Excel opening CSV files.

I work with these files every day and they work on other computers.

The problem is that if the field value starts with a dash, Excel will not show any records before that. Meaning, if there is a record on line 50000 that starts with a dash, it will not show the previous 49000 records.

I can open the file in Notepad++ and find all '- and replace it with ' and it will work fine. But I have hundreds of files.

This just started. I'm using using Office 2010 x64. I'm tempted to get Office 2013 to see if this will resolve it as something has obviously went wrong.

In the past, I would open the CSV files just like any Excel file and NEVER any issues. I would do this with multiple files each day but even the file that I use to not have issues with in the past is now an issue if it has a dash in a field.

Excel 2010 :: Error In Shell During Opening PDF

I'm using excel 2010 and pdf creator to make a pdf (and open it automatically). It works with the following code:

path and filename are previously defined objects.

I'm using pdfcreator because the code also has to be used with excel2003 on another pc. The problem is that I get an error (probably for trying to open the newly creating pdf-file).

Excel 2007 :: Add-in Not Loading When Opening File

Jun 10, 2013

I have an excel add-in which is a ribbon which houses a great deal of financial tools that I use on a regular basis so I don't have to hunt around excel for things I use regularly. The add-in has always loaded automatically whenever I opened excel - whether I opened excel by creating a new blank document or by double clicking a previously existing file.

Starting a few days ago though, the add-in only opens when opening excel by creating a new blank file. I can't think of anything that changed recently. Using Excel 2007.

Even when opening a file by double clicking, Excel still says the add-in is active (in excel options).

Excel 2013 :: Opening Large (1-3gb) XML Files

Sep 9, 2013

I received a few 1-3gb xml files from the government and I would like to open them in an Excel format. I have tried opening them using Excel 2013 (both as an xml table and as a read only workbook) with a machine running 8gb RAM and a 3.4 ghz i5 processor. I left it running overnight but Excel continues to "not respond". The file is intended to display thousands of line items with around 40-50 columns of data. For previous (and much smaller) similar files, the saved workbook is a manageable file. The only hurdle here is getting these open.
