Replacing All Cleared Cells With Default Content?
Apr 25, 2014
I'm trying to use the Worksheet_Change event to replace all cleared cells with a default formula. This allows users to override the default, or restore the default when they need to:
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("Data")) Is Nothing And Target.Value = "" Then
Range("DefaultFormula").Copy
ActiveSheet.Paste
ActiveSheet.Application.CutCopyMode = False
End If
Here are the results with various different regions selected:
Single cell selected and cleared -- works. Multiple cells selected and cleared -- doesn't work if the first area selected contains more than one cell. Otherwise, it works, no matter how many other areas are selected.
Example1: Selected range is (D2:E2, G2) in that order, it does not copy the formula into the cleared cells. Example2: Selected range is (G2, D2:E2) in that order, the code does copy the formula into all the cleared cells as desired.
The "IF" condition is not TRUE when the initial area has more than one cell.

I need help with a code to detect deletion of a cell's value.
In cell I10, a user can choose one of six items from a data validation list. Right now, I have code in there to pop up a message if the user selects value "X" from cells F6:F10 and G6:G10, but cell I10 does not have value "A", "B" or "C" already selected.
What I want, is if cells F6:F10 and G6:G10 have value "X" in them, and the user deletes values "A", "B" or "C" from I10 or changes it in any way after it has been filled, then to have a message box pop up.

Hi i had created a drop downlist (Data Validation list) which consist of the city names and a masterlist of the respective City id to the city names on a different work sheet (same file).
But i would need to configure in such a way that when i select the city from the drop downlist it would appear as number ( City ID) on the excel file.

Is it possible to set the default contents of a cell instead of having it blank? I want a cell to say "No Data" if you have not entered any data into that cell, and when you do, then it is replaced by whatever you entered. If you delete the contents of the cell, it goes back to the "No Data". Hence the "No Data" being the default contents of the cell.

I've run into a problem detecting empty cells. I'd like to search down a column of numbers and count the cells that contain numbers and ignore the cells that are empty. If the cells were made empty of their data by manually using the delete key before hand then my macro works fine. The problem is if the cells were manually made empty using the space bar to clear their contents.. then the macro seems unable to detect them as empty.
I have tried "", IsEmpty, and a few other things and nothing detects the cell as empty unless the delete key is used rather than the space bar. For this macro I really need the user to be able to clear values beforehand using the space bar, and to have those cleared cells be detected as empty cells.

I'm having a problem in a single line of code in which I'm using a Range Object to essentially select an area of cells whose contents I want cleared.
Here is the
Sheets(Left(c.Value, Len(c.Value) - 1)).Range(Cells(4, 2), " &:& ", Cells(Rows.Count, "b").End(xlUp).Offset(0, 9).Select).ClearContents
I want the range part to evaluate as (b4:whatever the last cell is before the first blank row).

i have a worksheet which is a form which feeds into another worksheet which acts as a database. i have a button which clears the form based on code which is essentially "clear contents".
the problem is i have a few cells where i would like to retain the formulas. i tried to do this with custom in validation but this did not work. i also tried to enter the code directly into the worksheet but this didnt work either (my skills are limited..). i am avoiding using protect sheet bc that in turn will affect many of my other buttons. is there something i am overlooking?

I am doing a "text to columns" in a VBA script and each time it runs I get a "Do you wnat to replace contents of the destination cells" prompt. I will always say yes to this prompt. Is there something I can put into the code to avoid this prompt all together, again the answer will always be yes to the prompt.

I have been using this code below to replace any blank cells with the number 0 but recently I have encountered an error if the format of the cell is a string.
Code:
Range("A1").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
Selection.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).Value = "0"
Is there a way to change this so it looks at the length of the cell, if the length of the cell is 0 then set the value = 0?

We have a report with 2 different sheets. On sheet one there are 13,000 rows of data and columns A-H are filled with different data. column A is our item id and column G has a date that states when the item was sold last. Well, the date in column G is wrong for about 7800 rows and needs changed.
The second sheet in the file is the 7800 rows with just the item id in column A and the correct date in column B. We are looking for an easy way to replace the rows in the first sheet with the correct information from the rows in the second sheet without manually replacing it line by line.
I almost forgot to add in, that in both sheets, column A with the item ids are the same item ids on both those sheets. So column A on sheet one has 13000 rows and included in those 13000 are the 7800 item ids on sheet 2.
We tried using the VLookup function that is incorporated into excel but had absolutly no luck, mostly because we have never used this function before. Sheet one already has all the lines of sheet 2, its just that sheet one has the wrong dates for the item ids and sheet 2 has the correct dates. im trying to replace the dates on sheet one from the dates on sheet 2 matching on the item ids from both sheets......

need to add same data to every other existing cell in the column, but not replace the data already in it, but to add to it. I've tried to google the answer and look here, but I probably use bad search terms.
For example, I need to add "QW" after each of these lines:
data1432
data9292
data3933
data3939
so it would look like this:
data1432QW
data9292QW
data3933QW
data3939QW
I have a few thousand rows of data, so wouldn't rather not do it manually cell by cell by typing :-)

I'm making a vba macro that takes a workbook and splits and saves it as individual sheets. In this process I need to find all the referenced cells (ie =E5) and change them to their text or numeric value. A few things I've found on the form and tired with no success:
Selection is a column selected from the top to the last used cell (I know there is only 4 columns that have references)
VB:
Selection.Copy
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste = xlPasteValues
Also tried:
VB:
ActiveSheet.UsedRange = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Value
I feel like one of these should be working. But even after the paste the values are still references.
Edit: An afterthought, if I were to select the whole sheet and do a copy/special paste would it replace all formula cells with their calculated value?

I'm sure this has an easy solution, but I'm having a problem putting it into a working formula. Column I lists checks numbers. Column J contains the amount of the check. Column K contains a "Y" when the check clears the account, otherwise it's left blank until the item clears. Cell O2 is where I want the balance formula.
I want O2 to look at Column K & then sum the amounts from Column J where the corresponding Column K is blank. If it were just one cell, it's a pretty easy if(k4="Y","", j4), right? But since it's a range of cells, not sure how to tell it to look down the range for all uncleared checks and put the sum in one cell.

I have a worksheet that I have removed a good number of hyperlinks, using the remove hyperlink function. My problem is that every so often, the hyperlinks are back on the sheet, without seeing any wording for the hyperlink.
Some place, a long time ago, I saw that there was something in the program that either stopped this from happening or turned the function off or a way of restoring removed hyperlinks. Today, I can't find it.
If I run my cursor over the spreadsheet, even over blank cells, I will get the evil finger of fate (so to speak) indicating that there is a hyperlink in that cell and yes, there is. If I click the cell, the site will be activated.
How do I keep these removed hyperlinks from returning.
I've also noticed that at anytime, while working on the sheet, everything flickers just as if the links are being re-populated. After a second or two the flickering stops and yes, the links are back.

I have a rather large userform with numerous textboxes and comboboxes. Data entered into the text and combo boxes is written to the next empty row of a sheet. As the data to be entered into the next row may not "all" vary from the last I would like to have the data I have last selected or entered remain in the textbox or comboboxes for the next. I attach an example for a better explaination.

I am trying to lock the unused cells in 32, 2 column by 7 row named ranges, based on whether or not two cells, above each range are equal or less than each other. In other words while one of the cells is less than or equal to the second cell all cells in the range below should be unlocked, as soon as that condition is no longer true the blank cells need to be locked.
I am trying to use this in the Workbook_Sheetcalculate so that the macro will run automatically.

I have a legacy Excel VB application with multiple sheets. When the
users tab from sheetA to sheetB the paste buffer is cleared. This might
be due to the fact that sheetB has Worksheet_Activate processing that
does some validation and refreshes a pivot table (on sheetB).
Is there a way to reserve and restore the contents of the paste buffer,
and make sure the user can actually paste values from sheetA to sheetB
(using either Ctrl-V or Edit-Paste)?

In Excel I need a particular cell to always have a default value. Say Cell B1 always needs to be 22. If any values are given in Cell A1, then B1 should diaplay that value. And if anyone deletes the value in Cell B1 still by default it should show 22 as the value. Is it possible.

I'm not sure if this is impossible (surely not) or if I'm just Googling the wrong terms (most likely). I have a sheet that we use to record staff shifts and when they take their lunch breaks. By default most of our employees have a 1 hour lunch and they take it 4 hours after they start. So far so good, I've set up a formula to work out what time their lunch would start and end based on this.
N237: =IF(AND(L237>0,L237<>"NWD"),SUM(L237+(1/6)),0) - Lunch start 4 hours after start time in L237 (NWD = Non working day)
M237: =IF(N237>0,SUM(N237+(1/24)),0) - Lunch ends 1 hour after lunch start time in N237
However, not everybody follows the default - some people take lunch later, or don't take as long due to working shorter hours.
What I'd like to do is allow users of the sheet to overtype the times generated by the formulas when applicable, but if they delete their own custom value for lunch breaks I would like the formulas to re-appear and thereby return lunch times to the default values.
I could do this through VBA with a button to look for blank cells, but I would prefer it to happen automatically. Is this possible and if so what code would I need to make the magic happen?
I should maybe have mentioned that this sheet has space for 250 names and an area for each day of the week, so these formulas would appear in 1,250 different places

I am having some difficulty adding a default value to a cell.
What I want to do is have a cell that will read "Enter value here" if nothing has been added, but display the users text when changed.
I've been playing with the IF statement feature for a while, but am getting nowhere.

whenever i start a new worksheet in the workbook, it's format is set as custom format. At the same time, whatever pivot table draw will be in this custom format. Is there anyway i can change the default format back to general? There is also a sample attached...The actual db is kinda more complex than that but there is a limitation of 40kb so...Is there any other preferred website to upload files?

I am using VBA to create a word document (.docx). This word document contains plain text content controls as well as picture content controls. I then use VBA to automatically select a picture based on the code below
Code:
Set oCC = Word.ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTitle("TabPic").Item(1)
On Error GoTo TabErrorHandler
oCC.Range.InlineShapes.AddPicture Filename:="X:XFERANDREW-TDCD " & LblVL &
[Code].....
After the document has been closed down I try to open it again and I am told "The file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents."
When I click details it says "Unspecified error" and "Location: Part: /word/document.xml, Line: 2, Column: 0"
If I click ok it says "Word found unreadable content in "". Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you turst the source of this document, click Yes.
Clicking Yes opens the document with all the contents and it is now renamed to Document 1. If I click no it does not open.
