I was wondering how I could change my desktop icon for one specific workbook to something other than the excel icon. I saw the below link (2nd tip) but that changes the icon for any file of a specific file type.
I just want to change one specific file's icon on my desktop to something custom, like a clipart picture of my choosing. I've seen it done with certain companies changing the internet explorer shortcut icon linked to their webmail, changing it to their logo.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI need a little bit of help here ... I can read and process a .txt file from my Excel VBA program, but I am having trouble as follows :
The file I am reading contains a number of heading lines, followed by a number of data lines.
All of the data lines end in a date, so I can use the code ...
If IsNumeric(Right(MyDSRec, 1)) Then
... to pick up the data lines & ignore the heading lines. This is fine and works perfectly.
However, the .txt file that I receive is out of my control, and is prone to error, in that the data line occasionally has what I assume is a "Tab" character after the last date, which means that the line above does not recognise the last character as being numeric.
If you double click "06" at the end of each line on the example below, you should be able to see what I mean (in the .txt document, if I place the cursor at the end and press backspace, all characters at the end are deleted, back to the 06, so they are not individual spaces) ...

When I download data from server side into excel, specific number such as "83437E207" gets converted into scientific number such as "8.3437E+211".
Is there a way to format excel to always to read numeric data as numbers only.
I am hoping someone with excel experience can be of help to me with an unusual request for excel.
Assume cell A1 = 2, B1 = 3 and i wish the sum of this (5) to appear in cell C1. Very straight forward so far, however i wish the result to appear in C1 when i left click on a cell other than C1, say for example D7.
I can't use any macros for this.
I remoted most of my number crunching stuff to a dll.
It work fine except for a few strange things that I observed like from time to time a strange message "Error in loading DLL" even though everything works fine. This message appears only when entering the main formula in the formula, and is no problem at all in usual work.
When I investigated, I noticed in the "windows task manager" that one instance of excel remains open even after I have closed excel. This phantom excel process is maybe related to the other problem I explained above.
Instead of calling a VBA function, it creates a VB6 object from this dll and uses the methods of this object. In this way I have remoted the number crunching functionality.
The main parameter passe in this process is a reference to the original workbook. I need it because the number crunching functions need to read data from the workbook.
I made it sure to terminate the life of the object properly on both sides by ad hoc obj=Nothing statements.
Still I think that the "garbage collection" or the "terminating" is the cause of the problem.
I've just discovered that if you include the line: Application.IgnoreRemoteRequests = False. in a Workbook_BeforeClose event, and then close the workbook using ActiveWorkbook.Close
the
Application.IgnoreRemoteRequests = False
line is itself ignored! Code attached - the only workaround I can come up with is also included (to re-enable IgnoreRemoteRequests BEFORE the workbook is closed programmatically) - can anyone confirm this, or break it, or come up with a better explanation or workaround?
I want a macro to take the current time and if it is less than 09:00am, I want it to set a variable to be the current time on the previous day.

08:45am on Saturday 13 July (for example) should be recorded as 08:45am on Friday 12 July.

i have an excel file with some vba code that includes some functions of a third party add-in also. It works fine when i open this file on the host machine. (Assuming host machine is where the Excel File is placed) But when i try to open the same file from some other computer(remotely/by sharing folder), the add-in malfunctions because of one reason that it considers the remote machine to be its host. Is it possible to set a permanent host machine for that any add-in. Or is it possible for that add-in / Excel file to do its calculations and updation of links on the host machine where it is placed.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI send out multiple versions of the same sheet every month. I want to be able to have a script run every time the spreadsheet is opened to send an electronic log directly to a text file on my machine (or something similar)
Is this possible or some sort of a pipe dream?

I have an excel workbook that lists the number of mailboxes on several exchange servers. Because this info is put in manually by several people throughout the day there is a chance for mistakes. I can use remote desktop to get into these servers and check all these but when you have over a hundred (Enterprise Level) of these different mailbox stores to check, it takes a while and just isn't fun. I have a friend who made a vbscript file that can check them all but I don't have that code but now I know that it is possible...well with vbscript anyhow.

I have CDO set up on in an excel workbook contained on our network. We have been using the following code for well over a year. It works flawlessly on 12 of our 13 computers. I can send mail through Excel using the following code on my computer. But not on a particular computer. The user at that particular computer can't send mail through the CDO code from her computer but can from other computers.
This problem is definitely isolated to a computer. I had tech support un-install office, use a cleaning tool, then re-install office. The problem persists. Is there a particular setting on this computer that needs to be set that I am unaware of?
Here is the code...
My code should get the value of a hidden element from a form that is on a remote website. Then it should display that element's value on my excel worksheet.
One or the other of the 2 lines between the commented out lines should work. Instead the code runs until within a minute after the page has finished loading, and then stops completely without getting the hidden element's value.
Code:
Sub work_damit()

I worked with an Ozgrid macro until it was what I wanted using files on my local PC. I then edited the macro to get data from a closed workbook on a remote server. I now have a Run-time error '1004'
Method ' Range' of object'_Worksheet' failed and the debugger takes me to this line of code.

The only thing I have changed up to this point in the macro, is the address of the file on the remote server.

View 9 Replies View RelatedIm designing a desktop background for my office, and want to roll it out once complete. Rather than trying to email the image out and get people to do it manually, is there anything in vba i can do to assist in this? I know its asking a bit much, but ive been surprised in the past with how versatile vba is! (i.e mapping network drives). I asked the IT guys to do it over the server, but they started ranting about screen resolution, priority of other jobs etc etc.
