We published a 2003 spreadsheet for people to enter expense information, but some get cute and add worksheets to it (instead of sending in multiple spreadsheets). How can prevent a worksheet to be added to our spreadsheet?
View 3 RepliesI have 5 Sheets and want to ADD a particular cell say A20 from 4 of the sheets onto A20 on the 5th Sheet. In Lotus 123 sheets are identified as A:a20, B:a20 etc How are they identified in Excel?

Because, the modules delete after the workbook copies but the sheet code does not.
In Worksheet1 cell H5 if a number is input 500 is entered. I need cell H3 say input 5 to be divided by cell input then divided by 21
So example 500/5= 100/21 = 4.7619 If you round up the answer I need Sheet1 thru Sheet5 to show.
I've undertaken a project for work with my very very limited knowledge of Excel VB.
What I am trying to do is automate the process of creating a new worksheet in a "Master" Workbook, rename and save that worksheet with the date it was created.
Each worksheet will hold a list of dates for staff members who have attended or attempted courses for that week and the information will come in via email in separate pre-created worksheet templates. The consolidated weekly data will ultimately end up in an MS Access db (but needs to be sorted and validated before upload).
Here is the code I have so far:
Private Sub AddSheets()
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Worksheets.Add.Move Before:=Sheets(1)
Worksheets.Visible = True
Dim myDate
myDate = Date
Sheets. Name = Date
End Sub

I have created a workbook consisting of a 'master sheet' (this sheet is a worksheet in itself but also summarizes the totals from the subsequent worksheet) and subsequent work sheets. I wish to be able to add worksheets as needed while having the 'master sheet' still updating as you add sheets.
View 9 Replies View RelatedLet's say I have 3 worksheets, the first of which being the total of the 2 other one, let's say total Apples, Red Apples, Green Apples.
The first column has the name of the customer, and the other columns afterwards have several other values such as sales in 2012, sales in 2013, year-to-date sales, growth etc...
I want people to be able to type in the name of the customer, then the sales for Red Apples, and the same in the worksheet for Green Apples, and then their total is shown in the Total Apples worksheet. The problem is that not all customers will buy both, and so overtime the cells will no longer be aligned to have one formula dragged across both worksheets.
Is there a way to get Excel to search the entries in both worksheets and compile them in the Total worksheet, summing entries that are under the same supplier name?
I have an output in the form of multiple worksheets. I have found a solution to merge them all toghether into one workbook. But I would like the sheets to be named after the original file name.
Lets say my file is called 9252400.xlsx, i would then like the corresponding sheet in the workbook to be called 9252400
The code I am using for merging is:
Code:
Sub GetSheets()
Path = "C:Documents and SettingsDAJOMy DocumentsMD-CPHPI_Database-908315-3PlantInfo_Excel"

I would like to be able to use VBA to add a total amount from different worksheets. What I have attached is a copy of my workbook. It is a blank PO and at the bottom is the word total. Is there any way that I could use VBA or an add in to be able to sum the numbers that are adjacent to the word total on separate worksheets?copy.xlsm
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm using a workbook that has one sheet that pulls data from all the others, displaying a series of rows that summarizes data from each worksheet, each of which is full of data. Its a worksheet that a lot of people use so its kind of tedious to use as of now, because whenever you add a new worksheet of data you have to manually create a row and then manually change all the worksheet references. Is there a way to make rows automatically add and update when a new worksheet is added? I know it would probably have involve some sort of Macro or VBA.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like one column (column A) to be an "indentifier" column. Column B is the customer name, column C is the customer city and state, column D is the customer phone number, and column E is the customer email.
By calling column A an "identifier" column, what I mean is that I would like to be able to go down the list and put an "x" next to each customer I would like to include in that particular workbook. I would then like to be able to run a macro which would take each of the customers with an "x" in the column A, create a copy of the template comfirmation call sheet, and fill in the identifying information from columns B through E into the copied template. Each worksheet would also need to be renamed the same as the customer name. It would need to perform this same procedure for each row that has an "x," making sure that all worksheets (confirmation call sheets) are grouped into one new workbook.
Sheet 1 is called "main"
Sheet 1 contains 5 columns
A = Blank
B = Customer Name
C = Customer City and State
D = Customer Phone
E = Customer email
Sheet 2 is called "template"
"x"'s are placed into "main" sheet, column A to identify which customer will be affected by macro...................
I created a Macro to do some copying and pasting. Can I restrict that Macro so that it can only be used from my PC?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have taken over a workbook that due to various constraints elsewhere I cannot change the structure.
Each of the three columns in question C, E & F have dropdown validation lists.
Column C is either Import or Export
Column E is a list of locations where work is Imported From
Column F is a list of locations where work is Exported To.
Based on whatever choice is made in column C either Import or Export I only want the user to be able to select a value in E or F.
So if Import is selected then a value cannot be entered in F
I am trying to get a macro that converts Japanese digits to their Roman counterparts but does it only in a specific column. My original version just selected the J column and then Cells.Replace ran just fine on just that column. I have discovered, however, that the users may make the crucial column either J or K, so I changed it to search for the header first, and then select that column. It replaces in the entire sheet, however.
Here's what I've got (I've only given you one digit replacement. The What doesn't display properly because this forum doesn't display Japanese):
I currently have an input screen where users copy and paste data from a seperate spreadsheet into a range of cells B11:B15 in the input screen.
A macro is assigned to then extract this data and paste into the recording sheets behind.
I would like to format somehow cells B11:B15 so that only numeric entries can be pasted in and not any alpha including #.
I have a cell in a spreadsheet which has a lot of text entered. The spreadsheet needs to be used by another application (Business Objects).
My problem is that I need to limit the number of characters entered in the cell to 255 characters. I know I can use Data, Validation to limit the text length, but this only works once all the data has been entered, then a message is displayed.
My ideal soulution would be:
When a user is entering text and has reached my 255 character limit, no more text can be entered;
or
When a user is entering text and has reached my 255 character limit, the text automatically continues in the next cell.
A not so elegant solution (but a usable) would be:
A character counter to let the users know when 255 characters have been reached.
I do not want to send each rep a file only with their own sales figures as this will be very time consuming. If I could send one file to all representatives but restrict their view to their own figures only, this would make life much easier. If necessary I can set up passwords for them.
Essentially what I want to automate is a check through one list on the Sheets("Notes") in column A, with another column B on Sheets(template). If there is a match I want to insert a part of the row that the match occurred on Sheet("Notes"), and insert it above the row where the match occurred on Sheets(template).
Here is my code so far, currently I keep getting a "Application-defined or object defined error" on the line
VB:
Sheets("Notes").Range(Cells(i, 2), Cells(i, 11)).Copy
VB:
Sub add_notes(template As String)
Dim Rng As Range

This may be a two part question, I finally was able to build a calender contol to insert dates into a active cell, now what i am trying to do is be able to restrict the usage of certain dates. For instance, dates prior to the current date cannot be chosen, nor dates that fall on 29th, 30th and month depending the 31st. Is this possible? Its is being used to calculate amounts for certain days, for example the calender object places a date in Cell A1, which falls between 1st-28th, another column also has a date option, the date to be chosen cannot be before todays date, and cannot be after the 28th of any given month. Is there a way to restrict in the calender or would a if statement apply? OR would a more simple approach to use data validation? where as (A1=MM, B1=DD, C1=YY) so that D1=A1/B1/C1 ie. 07/22/09, so that when using D1 it would be a date format. which would be the start date and E1,F1,G1 for a new date, then use conditional formatting to restrict or prevent choosing dates before TODAY() for the second date colums, I know a message could be displayed for it if it is less then/prior to the current date, or should i have the data validation adjust (if at all possible)for the first set of date options?
View 11 Replies View RelatedI have cut and paste some code provided by members of this great forum to insert a row in a second worksheet at the same row number when one is inserted in the active worksheet. e.g. If I insert a new line at Row 14 in worksheet "admin" I also get a new row at Row 14 in worksheet "report".
Code is as follows:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Set sourcebook = ThisWorkbook
Set sourcesheet = sourcebook.Worksheets("admin")
Set targetbook = ThisWorkbook
Set targetsheet = targetbook.Worksheets("report")
myRow = ActiveCell.Row
targetsheet.Activate
ActiveSheet.Rows(myRow).EntireRow.Insert
sourcesheet.Activate
End Sub
However, anything I do in worksheet "admin" triggers a new row to be inserted in "report".... If I change text in any cell, or make any changes at all, I get a new row in "report".
Is there a way to restrict this action to only a line insert?
I'm an intermediate Excel user that can navigate around pretty well, but now my boss wants me manipulate Excel in such a way that I cannot figure out how to do.
He wants the worksheet to be "locked" so that I cannot select another or "the next" cell unless the active cell I'm in has something entered into it. The purpose of this is so that when a manager is buying off (proofing and approving) my work, he can't put his initials in a cell next to the purchased item unless the cell that decribes the purchaed item is filled in. I'm not exactly sure what terminology to use when describing this, so forgive me if I'm being vague.
Can I restrict a user from "moving on" to another cell unless the active cell is filled in? And if so, how do I do this?
how I can keep a running total of information added to a different worksheetS. They would not always be the same peson ID so I would like to return a match on any unique ID number found on multiple worksheets and add their values on a master front sheet. i.e this becomes a running total of items purchased per ID number.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there was a way that I can have a user only able to edit the worksheet that pertained to them in a workbook of many sheets. So if there was a sheet called "Alicia" and another one called "Love Child"; user Alicia would only be able to update info on the "Alicia" tab and user Love Child would only be able to update their info. Is this possible? Also can this be done for a particular row in a spreadsheet? So if row 3 has Alicia's info, she's only allowed to update the info on that row.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make a macro in Excel 2003 to create x amount of named worksheets that are a copy of a different worksheet.
1. I have a main worksheet that will have a number manually entered into a cell (lets say A1);

If I enter '10' into cell A1 of the main worksheet, I'd like to click the button and have Excel create 10 copies of the template worksheet. These new worksheets should all share the same name with a number after them (ex: banana 1, banana 2..... banana 10).
I have not found a way to control the width of a validation drop down menu. I have 3 drop down list. Two of them are in wide column cells and one a narrow column cell. For some reason my narrow column cell gives me a wide pull down even though the length of the data in this field is only 3 to four characters.

I have a long list of data: a unique number identifier that needs to be grouped with text. Right now they are in two separate columns. I would like to have two large columns on a page, as if you were looking through a phone book. I have been trying to get this list to load into a finite number of rows before it breaks into another column on the same page. Then moves to the next page, so about 30 rows that are set 8 rows down on a page to account for company letter head.
I haven't paired the text and numbers together at all. But I haven't been able to find a way to have them move in a way that maintains their correspondence. I have gotten my numbers to move into the row column set I have wanted but not the text.
[LETTERHEAD] {1-7 rows}
