I have a UDF in Cell Sheet1!A1 that inputs some ranges from Sheet1 and calculates a number. Then I have a sub that calculates the value of this function with Evaluate(Sheet1!A1.formula). However, this only works when I am in Sheet1. Otherwise, I get the wrong calculation. How can I avoid this? I will post the code in the open source forum as it otherwise is quite good and automatically resizes array functions to their proper size.
how to use VBA to write a formula in one sheet that refers to a fixed cell on the sheet to the right. The referenced sheet may have different names and it may be in a different order (i.e. not Sheet(2)) but it will always be one sheet to the right. I just want to have cell A1=(cell B2 one sheet to the right).
I am writing a code that has a sheet change event linked to call on a number of macros. The vba works fine until I change another cell and it activates the same macro.
VB:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range
Select Case Range(BI47) Case "1"
[Code]....
I have tried if statements and everything else I can find, most will not work, others report errors. The code and macros will be the same on many sheets but work independently and BI27 is the source of the change
I've got 3 sheets, A, B, and C. In sheet C, I have a cell named "element". That cell can have either the letter A or the letter B in it. In my VB code, I want to reference the sheet which correlates with the "element" cell. So,
Worksheets("element").Select
when the user clicks my "go" button, it calls this logic, and I want the worksheet that correleates to the letter in the cell in worksheet C - to open.
The reason for my posting - this is not working, and may not even be possible. Perhaps someone has experience in this and knows how to do it - or knows a different way to do this.
I am trying to use VB to vlookup between to workbooks 1. Make active workbook WBK1 2. Make workbook being open WBK2 3. Copy and Paste between WBK1 and WBK2 4. Have a vlookup in WBK1 and bring in the values from WBK2 5. Close WKB2 6. Copy, Paste, and transpose values in wkb1 within wkb1
The script works fine until it reaches the vlookup step. I have used the vlookup by itself without the copy and paste code successfully but when I combine the two it provides me with the error 9. Subscript out of range.
I want to activate the sheet based on my cell value but the prog is not working.
Sub emptest() Dim tempname As String Worksheets("team").Select Range("c24").Select Do While ActiveCell.Value "" If ActiveCell.Value = tempname Then Worksheets(tempname).Select Else MsgBox "no sheet" End If ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select Loop End Sub
I have workbook with two sheets "Path A" and "Path B". Whenever I activate worksheet "Path B", I want to activate the cell in "Path B " which was the active cell in sheet "path A". For example, if cell R1 was active in path A when Path B was activated, R1 should be made the activecell of Path B. Tried the follwing code... not working.
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate() Dim r As Integer, c As Integer r = Worksheets("Path A").ActiveCell.Row c = Worksheets("Path A").ActiveCell.Column Worksheets("PathB").Cells(r, c).Activate End Sub
I have an index page with hundreds of worksheets (poor spreadsheet design i know) I am looking for a button to go next to the sheet name on the index sheet, read the cell in the button's macro code and when pushed go to that sheet's location. I can easily make a button to go to one sheet but with hundreds of sheets this becomes a monotonous task. Example
Index Sheet
Sheet 2 (Button) <-- Button reads the text, takes you to the "Sheet 2" location Sheet 3 (Button) Sheet 4 (Button Sheet 5 (Button)
Basically, I'd like my macro to be activated whenever the value in cell A4 changes. Cell A4 has a numerical value between 1 and 10. The macro clears a contents table. Here it is:
Sub Clear() Sheets('Form').Select Range("H4:L10").Select Selection.ClearContents End Sub
How to get the (module) macro to be activated whenever cell A4 changes value?
I have an excel file that I want a macro to run when the cell changes to "Yes" (location B21). The cell options right now in a drop down list is "Yes" or "No". The Macro is called helper. How do I get this to work when they pick yes or no from the drop down list. I wanted to attach the file in this post, but it will not let me. I can email it to anyone who would like to work on it.
Is it posible that when data or text is entered into a cell and the enter key is pushed that this can either run a macro or activate a hyperlink to go to another worksheet for user to follow further instructions?
OR instead of going to another worksheet a pop up message appears with instructions and then can be OK'd to remove message and proceed?
I need to copy a range of values from sheet 3 to sheet1. When I recorded macro, I got the below code. But, instead of RC in the 4th line <ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=Sheet2!RC"> I need to pass values like A1,A20 etc.
Since the values range & column to be copied would be varying dynamically, (say for first iteration it would be A1: A20 & for second iteration, I need to copy C1: C20.) how to pass these variables to the macro and use it instead of the static "RC". Whatever column I specify, it should copy from that <column>StartRow to that <column> EndRow.
Sub Updtval(StartRow As Integer, EndRow As Integer, f As Integer) Sheets("Sheet1").Select Range("A1").Select ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=Sheet2!RC" Range("A1").Select Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("A1:A6"), Type:=xlFillDefault End Sub
i have a button that copies data from cell A5:K5, and pastes it in Sheet2 of my workbook.
The data is ordered like this
------ ------ ------ button1
------ ------ ------ button2
------ ------ ------ buttonX
I have like 40 buttons attached to 4 rows each. And in that group of rows, i have some cells with an IF= formula, and some minor coding. The problem is: If i press button 3,4,17,29 before i press every other button before that. I get an reference code fail at the cell.
If i press the buttons in order. Like 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 - it appears smoothly.
More info: The button copies data from for example A5:K5 and pastes it into the next blank row of sheet2. But i want to be able to press button 2 before i press button1, without getting an error in my =IF cell.
If i press the 40 buttons in a row, and then starts to mix up the button pressing. It appears smoothly.
How do I change the code so that the macro looks up the next sheet (instead of by sheet number, which is how the code was recorded) and transfers data to the summary page until there are no more new sheets. See attached zip.
This seems really basic, but I can't seem to find it...
Using Visual Basic, if I have a named range, lets say like "NAMEDRANGE", how can I refer to cells in that range by their position in the range? For example, if I want to refer to the cell in the 2nd row and 3rd column of the range.
Also is their an easy way to refer to the first(top-left) cell in a named range?
Following syntax is incorrect, what is wrong? This should happen: Select op a specific worksheet (named DATA) in the workbook Report.xls and I empty the contents
Then I try with a 'With' statement to read the contents of a file named "sourcedata.xls' with helds a worksheet named "source". The values in this sheet should be tranfered to the sheet DATA in the workbook "Report.xls"
Sub FetchDataFromClosedWorkbook() Dim FileName As String Dim SheetName As String Dim cellRange As String Const ReportPath = "C:ExcelReports" Windows("Report.xls").Activate Sheets("DATA").Select Cells.Select....................
I wrote code to update some workbooks. The code opens the workbooks and then activates the workbook to add the update.
I was tired when I wrote the code to activate the workbook and it is written:
Workbooks("Update").Activate
The updates have already been sent out and it is not working on some computers. (If I change the code to
Workbooks("Update.xls").Activate
it works fine.)
Is there some option in the VBA editor that I can have people change on their computer so the code will run? Why does it work on some computers and not others?
(Unfortunately, rewriting the code to add ".xls" and resending everything isn't an option.)
If I have a cell that has as its contents as sheet name, is there anyway I can use the cell's address to reference that sheet?
As an example, say I have in Sheet1, cell A1, the text Sheet2. And let's say I want to return the value of cell B2 on whichever sheet the text of A1 says. So, on Sheet1, I might have this:
I'd like the "WildCard" to pull from a value in a cell whereby I can run a button macro that, when pushed, deletes the tab/worksheet named "WildCard". For instance, if I wanted to delete "Sheet3" I would type "Sheet3" into, say, cell C3 and then press the button to run the macro and "Sheet3" would be deleted. How to I refer the macro to cell C3? I currently have a macro that inserts/names a sheet based upon a cell reference and macro button. I'd like one that can delete in the same way.
I have a project that I'm going to attempt to handle, unfortunately I have no idea where to start. So any ideas or input to get me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!! I am new to macro programming in excel and have a very light background in programming.
What I have:
Right now I have a data file(Sheet1) that lists the data of various accounts. Each row is a different account and each column is data that pertains to the account. Ex. Row 1 will be account # 1, with things like name, account number, address, etc... in columns A B C and so on.
What I want to do:
I need to make forms for EACH account in another sheet (sheet2), and in that form i need to reference specific data from Sheet1. THe reason it needs to be referenced is beecause if we make changes to Sheet1, the form will also need to be updated. Also, I dont need all the data in sheet one for each account, I will be pulling out data from different columns, ie. only columns A, E, F, etc...
I have this code below, which someone from this forum kindly kindly gave to me for my Worksheet code. What it does is check the value in a dropdown list in column I and if it says "Cancelled" then strikethrough columns A-K of that row.
What I wanted to know is this, in cell N2 has the formula to show todays date. In column D9 onwards is an end date. How can I amend the code below so that it also checks to see if the date in Column D9 onwards is greater than N2 and if so strikethrough columns A-K in that row?
Would it be in the form of an OR statement in the code below?
I use a workbook where new worksheet tabs are added and removed daily. Every day I use the second-to-last tab (2nd from the right) and the last tab (far right). What code would enable me to activate and reference both of these tabs individually? I believe it would be something like the code below but I can't figure it out...
