I am running the following code to check if a value = 0 is in specific cells. Because this code on all the cells runs each time any cell in the workbook is calculated, the screen flashes. I would like to stop this screen flashing by having the check done only when the specific cells are exited....
View 9 RepliesI'm trying to create a sheet where clicking in a range brings up, in my users words, "a box I can type loads of comments in". They want some kind of flag in this cell showing if comments are posted or not. So far so ok, got the userform to pop up using the selection change event below and dump the actual comments somewhere the user won't look. A rather inelegant IF statement to see if there's anything in the dump cell gives them their flag.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("B2:B300")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
UserForm1.TextBox1.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 10).Value
UserForm1.show
End Sub
So what's the problem? When I select entire rows, the userform pops up. Is this unavoidable?
I have a question on how to define fixed rows on making cell blank on new selection change.
The code below affects all rows under coloumn 1.
Is there any way to affect only eg row 1 to 20?
I attached a sample file for reference.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim strName As String
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
On Error Resume Next
strName = Target.Name.Name
On Error Goto 0
If ActiveCell.Column = 1 Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
ActiveCell.Offset(, 1).Value = vbNullString
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End Sub
Long time since i've needed the expertise in this magnificent forum. I Have a problem with the ChangeEvent procedure. I have defined a range of two colums as can be seen in the posted code sample, but the Change Event procedure runs the procedures if ANY cells in the sheet is changed. How do I limit the Change Event to only the two colums that I have specified?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error Resume Next
If Range("L6:M1000") Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or IsEmpty(Target) Then Exit Sub
On Error Goto 0
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("L6:M1000")) Is Nothing Then
If Target.Value = 1 Then
Target.Offset(0, 1) = "5) Gennemført"
End If
If Target.Value = "5) Gennemført" Then
Target.Activate
With ActiveCell
.EntireRow.Select
Selection.Font.Color = RGB(196, 196, 196)
End With
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 11).Select
End If
End If
UpdateColorDeadline
Target.Select
End Sub
I have this code working fine. It applies conditional formating to two rows ((K3:K65) and (J3:J65)) and checks when a value changes in row B to reaplpy the formatting. I'd like to had add more columns to it. It would have apply the same conditonal formatting on rows ((O3:O65) and (P3:P65)) but when a value changes in row (N3:N65)
So basically, I want to keep the first working part of the code and have it to check at more rows with a different reference for the conditionnal formatting.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rng As Range
Dim rngJ As Range
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
Set rng = Union(Range("B3:B65"), Range("J3:J65"))
If Intersect(Target, rng) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Set rngJ = Range("K" & Target.Row)
Select Case rngJ.Value
Case ""
rngJ.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
rngJ.Offset(0, -1).Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
Case Is >= 20.............................
I am trying to make a macro run automatically based on info entered in a cell. The problem is I need this code on at least three separate sheets in the work book. It doesent work when I try to use the same basic code. The code I am using is below.

' Find the last row of date in the "Approved" worksheet
lLastRow = FindLastRow(SZ_WS_APPROVED, COL_B)
' Set a reference to the changed cells in column X
Set Target = Intersect(Target, Range(Cells(ROW_FIRST, COL_X), Cells(lLastRow, COL_X))).........................
is it possible to have a userform activated as a result of a Worksheet_Change event on more than 2 cells. Currently I have the code below which will activate userforms if either a cell in Column G or a cell in Column T is changed.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("G:G", "T:T")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
If Intersect(Target, Range("G:G", "T:T")) = "" Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("G:G")) Is Nothing Then
GlngRow = Target.Row
Call Module3.ShowList1
End If
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("T:T")) Is Nothing Then
GlngRow = Target.Row
Call Module3.showlist4
End If
End Sub
What i need to do is activate another userform if a cell in Column AC is changed. I tried this code but got an error "Compile Error: Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment", which leads me to believe I can't add any more cells to the argument and it highlights the word Range in this line - If Intersect(Target, Range("G:G", "T:T", "AC:AC")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub..........
Can you have more than 1 worksheet change event on the same worksheet, if so, how do you name it to prevent the ambiguous name error. What code would I need to select a text value in colums e11:e15 based on the cell value in cell named STATE and place the selected value in cell e16. I have, thanks to this resource, one worksheet change event that selects a numeric value from any column E3,F3:F7 and places that value in cell C4. but the same code doesn't work for the new worksheet change event.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to use the worksheet calculate event to automatically change the color of a cell only when that particular cell changes. In E2 of the worksheet is a formula use to determine rating based on the result of 2 other cells. The rating is classified as follows
Low
Moderate
High
Maximum
I would like to generate a different set of color to the cell and fonts for each of the rating. For example,
"Cyan" to the cell E1 and E2 with Black font if the result is "Low"
"Plum" to the cell E1 and E2 with "Black font if the result is "Moderate"
"Blue" to the cell E1 and E2 with "White" font if the result is "High" and
"Red" to the cell E1 and E2 with "White" font if the result is "Maximum"
I have a code and I want to run this macro whan a specific cell change (which has sum formula) and this code also has some calculation. And I m not understanding to overcome this problem through Calculate event.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use the Calculate() event in VBA, I have a column containing formulas but I would like the values that it displays to be real values, like when I special paste them as values, I do know how to do this in the Change() event with manual input but these are changed depending on other things. I tried a couple of things but none of them really worked.. This is what I have until now:
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
Application.EnableEvents = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For Each Cell In Range("R8:R1169")
Cell.Copy
Cell.Offset(-11, 0).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValuesxl, Operation:=xlNone
Next Cell
Application.EnableEvents = True
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
I have found this code while searching. I would like to know how to call the vba code only when clicking the button. On much bigger projects Excel has to re-calculate all cells everytime i change a cell value.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have the following code that I would like to trigger when cells B26:U26 change to something other then 0 due to a formula? How was I make this happen?
[Code] .....
I am working in both 2003 and 2007 Excel.
This is a simplified version of my worksheet:
I have two cells, A2 and B2. When I enter a numeric value into B2, I want it only allowed when certain text values are in A2. I.E.: Allow any value in B2, but only if A1 is either "SYDN or "ADEL".
Now using info found in an old post, I can achieve this with a combination of data validation and code:
=OR(A2="SYDN",A2="ADEL") for the validation and for the code:
[Code] ......
The only problem is I also need to reset B2 if A2 changes to invalid data as a result of some other input to that cell (A2). In other words if B2 is showing "1" already and A2 were to change from "SYDN" to say "LOND", then B2 needs to be cleared. If A2 changed to "ADEL" then it doesn't need to clear but it is ok if it does because it is fine to re-enter "1" into B2 again.
I have attempted to attach a sample worksheet : Xl0000003.xls‎
for instance if i type in a particular cell any number 1, 0, 53 .. excel must not allow me to do this...
but there are certain value that have both number and alphatbets eg. 001 michael jordan ... cell should allow such values.
I have a range B1 to B4 for user to input value. Worksheet Change Event
However, the range B1 to B4 should not accept any value if the cell on the left hand side is empty.
Eg,
If A1 is empty, B1 should not accept any value.
If A2 is empty, B2 should not accept any value.
If A3 is empty, B3 should not accept any value.
Below code checks for condition in A1 only.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B1:B4")) Is Nothing Then
If IsEmpty(Range("A1")) Then
MsgBox "Please input something under column A."
With Application
.EnableEvents = False
.Undo
.EnableEvents = True
End With
Target.Offset(0, -1).Select
Exit Sub
End If
End If
End Sub
Eg, If I enter something in A1, B2 would accept a value which is not what I hope to achieve. It should be checking for cell in A2 whther it is empty.
Would be grateful for some advice on how to modify the code.
I attached a sample file for reference
I have two coloumns on a worksheet. In the first column I have data validation drop down list. I want to be able to: if the first column "Other" is chosen then the next cell will allow text for description, if anything other is chosen in the first drop down list cell then I want the next ( text for descritption ) cell to be resticted.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to do with data validation, trying to stay away from vba on this... and it is probably very simple:
Cell A1, they can select Rice, Cheese, or Rabbit
I want to use custom data validation on B1, so that if A1 = Rabbit, they can only enter 1. If it is blank or the other two choices, they can enter 1 through 10.
Can I do that with data validation? I can't get any if thens to work in it.
I need a formula that I can put into a cell, I assume via data validation, and will prevent the use of any symbols other than a hyphen "-". Spaces are fine. The cell is being used to enter the 1st line of an address.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI am trying to come up with an excel shee which can track the progress of a student on practice exams. This exam only has multiple choice questions, with answer choices A,B,C,D or E.
What I am looking for
1) I want to restrict the cell data to A,B,C,D or E (both cases). Note that I am not looking for a drop down/combo box. It would take the user to use one or two mouse clicks to drop down the list, and I am not in favor of that.
2) I would like this validation/formula to be applied to all the cells in a particular column.
3) Nice-to-have.
If the user enters a lower case letter, then I would like to convert to upper case.
I have a cell (A1) with a number in it. The number has 30 digits. I need a formula for (B1) that will enter the same number as A1 but restrict the number to 28 digits. Basically I need it to cut off the last 2 digits.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have cell E15 in Sheet1 which will take an 8 digit Personnel Number, which can have leading 0's. I want to prevent a user from entering any characters other than 0123456789. I have worked out that I need to use the Worksheet_Change event and I need to use the function IsNumeric.
No matter what I do I can't trigger the Worksheet_Change event!
a value in a cell depending on some condition.
In the attached sample file, when A2=Fruit, A9=Domestic, A10=Orange and A11=1, B2 would not accept a value greater than 200 and there is a pop up message.
This control check works fine if a user has input "Fruit" in A2 first and input amount in B2 later.
However, if the user has input value 250 in B2 first and input "Fruit" in A2 later, 250 would be accepted by B2 and there is no pop up message.
Is there a way to limit say a value to be inputted into a cell say between 1 and 10, and to have a warning message pop up if any other values are keyed into that particular cell?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've written a spreadsheet and am wondering if there is a way to permit data entry in a cell, contingent upon another cell being populated.
In simple terms, you can't enter data in cell X, until cell "Y" has been populated with something.
I am looking for a forumla, which I think will be an If forumla, to allow/block entry into a cell depending on what is entered in another cell.
So if "Yes" is entered into cell 1, I want cell 2 to show "N/A", and if "No" is entered in cell 1 I want the user to be able to enter data into cell 2.
I want to restrict user from entering alphabets like I,O,Q and S in a cell. Can we do this using data validation or any formula because I don't wan't to use drop-down list or refer to values in other cells either.
