In the last thread Andy gave me this code to only show the comments when a cell in Column A is selected. It doesn't show them anymore when you put your cursor on a cell. But when 2 excel files are open, including the example, and you close the other one it asks the regular stuff; Do you wan't to save .. etc. It also askes that with the example added, and when you press cancel, the code doesn't work anymore and I have to re-open it. Or if, for some reason, you close the sheet, but still want to edit something, press cancel, the code doesn't work anymore. How can this be changed?
In the example added a code is running to show the comments (pictures) when the cell is selected. This way you don't have to mouse-over to show the comment, you just use your arrow keys.. Is there a way to not show comments on mouse-over? I only want them to show while the cell is selected, using the VBA code. Because now you can show 2 comments while a cell is selected, and you put your cursor on another cell.
I wanted to know how to show a comment when hovering over a checkbox, whether it is enabled or not. I originally added comments in the cell behind each box, but due to many users using different versions of excel and different resolutions of each computer, formatting would be different and it would look awful.
I am inserting through a vb script code, comments to cells... But the thing is, that certain comments are larger than others... Is there any code that let the yellow popup resize to show all the content ? Coz I started thinking in incrementing it's height according to the number of lines.
I have a workbook that I received from a vendor that when I click in a cell a comment appears. There is no line or comment indicator for each comment. So I went into the tools - options - views - comments section and chose no comments. The comments still appear and when I go to the tool bar - view - comments nothing appears. I checked for any VBA code and didn't see anything. I was able to get around this problem by copy/paste special into a new worksheet, but curiosity is killing this cat.
Here is a picture example of what I mean, just randomly found on google: http://www.projectwoman.com/uploaded...ent-763577.jpg
Maybe an insignificant thing I want, but can the line from the comment connecting to the red indicator be removed? Added an example since my comments show up below the selected cell with VBA code.
I'm attempt to automatically validate QTP spreadsheets with an EXCEL VBA macro. All is going well but I now want to look smarter. Is there a method to globally remove all comments from a worksheet?: D What I actually want to do is add comments to cells which fail validation but some of these cells may already contain comments. If they do contain comments then I want to overwrite with my comments. I thought the easiest way would be to delete all comments at the start of macro but I am all ears to any other approach.
How would you prevent the copy/paste of cells that have comments?
Also, how would you allow cells with comments to be copied and pasted without pasting the comments?
I also have an aside question about the forum advanced search. When searching for multiple search words, how would you type the search to include all words, for example, "prevent" & "paste" & "comments".
I have found a very useful UDF for removing non-alpha characters from strings. (See below, Credit for posting to Stanley D Grom - Ozgrid post ´Removing Non-alpha Characters From Text´).
Option Explicit
Private Function RemoveCharacters(InString As String) As String Dim intLoopCounter As Integer Dim intStringLength As Integer Dim intASCIIVal As Integer intStringLength = Len(InString) InString = LCase(InString) For intLoopCounter = 1 To intStringLength intASCIIVal = Asc(Mid(InString, intLoopCounter, 1)) If intASCIIVal >= 97 And intASCIIVal <= 122 Then RemoveCharacters = RemoveCharacters + Mid(InString, intLoopCounter, 1) End If Next intLoopCounter End Function
Two requests:
1. Could the UDF be modified such that any part of a string contained within brackets is also removed (e.g. "NLGA High Street (West-Enfield), EN6" becomes "nlgahighstreeten")?
2. Can an argument be added to the format of the UDF, such that numbers (0 to 9) are either included or excluded (e.g. RemoveCharacters(A1,1) where the argument ´1´ would include any numbers (0 to 9), so "NLGA2003 High Street (West-Enfield), EN6" becomes "nlga2003highstreeten6")? ´blank´or ´0´would exclude these numbers, i.e. would return "nlgahighstreeten"
I have a shape with a macro assigned to hide certain columns when clicked. I want to have a box pop up when you hover this button which explains what clicking the button will do.
I know the VBA code is called MouseMove but I am new to VBA and don't know where to even start.
is it posable to get a graph to popup when the mouse is draded over a certen cell? or maybe to get it to popup in the comments bubble. if that is possible. then is it possible to set pramators that if its above 350 it turns red( on a line graph) and if its below its turns black. this was throwen at my about 20 min ago.
Is it possible prevent the use mouse (disable mouse) while a macro is running? I made a program which starts with animation of Shapes. If you click on shape while macro is running it stops animation.
Is it possible to get mouseover information from outside of Excel using VBA? I'm trying to automate a non-microsoft package but I need my mouseclicks to wait for a message to appear within the other application before my macro continues. I've already asked something similar before but I've put a better title on this thread so apologies for the repeat.
I use Excel XP 2002. I now can't copy /paste by using the right mouse button. It works perfectly in other MS products, on the net and on the desktop. l have checked my Tools/Options with other users, I have uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled the complete Excel package but the problem persists, even from start with a blank worksheet. I have also checked and there are no add-on ticked.
Is there a way to record the mouse movements within VBA. I essentially want to use excel to open an external program and execute specific commands within that program. Unfortunaetly the extrenal program is not a micorsoft program
I've got an application where I switch between workSheets and the mouse stays in the same location. As all of my actions are predicated on mouse right-clicks or double-clicks, the first thing that I have to do as move the mouse back to the active cell. Is there a way to reposition the mouse to the activeCell upon returning to the workSheet?
I constantly need to copy and paste values from one sheet to another.
I know that there have been macros on this site that can be assigned to a key combination but can anyone provide a way of having this option available on the right mouse button.
I have a Listbox with multiple items (Multiselect property is on). However, due to the length of the items not all the parts of it is visible within the listbox.
Is there a way by which if a user hovers the mouse over an item in the ListBox (or selects an item), the whole item is visible (the way it is done in ControlTipText)
I'm trying to design a form, for various staff members to populate. I would like to ease their usage by putting a check mark in which ever cell they left click, also if they click a second time in the same cell it will undo the action.
I have not decided yet which which cells I am using, but is their some simple routine that could be used over & over again and all I would need to do would (hopefully) simply be to change the cell numbers in the routine to apply to that cell or range of cells.
I have a log that stores a list of different files in the first column. All of these files are worksheet hyperlinks (ie: =HYPERLINK("\USSS000010_PUBLIC5_COMMON15_PPA20066-032G6-032G.xls","06-032G")). If I click on any of these cells the file will open.
I am trying to open certain files from the list using VBA.
My question is Is there any way to simulate a mouse click, on the cell containing the hyperlink, using VBA?
I have a UserForm with an Image on it that serves as a button. I need it to change to a second image when the mouse cursor goes over it. Is this possible?
is there a way to launch a macro when your mouse is over a specific cell or a specific range of cells ? The idea behind is to update a chart based on the cell value, in case a name, with its associated values
