I have a template file which has a reference to a cell on a sheet in another workbook.
I need to copy this template to 250 workbooks. However, everytime I copy this template sheet into a workbook, it updates the reference to the template name! Is there an absolute reference I can use for the sheetname?
So for so good, but when I copy Sheet2 to a new workbook, I need to have the exact same reference; ie. Sheet1$A$1 and NOT = ['C:Workbook template']Sheet1!$a$1
I'm concatenating data in 5 cells (Author, Year, Title, City, Publisher), one of which is in italics (Title). When using concatenate (or &) the formatting is removed, and I need to be able to retain that formatting.
Example: Col B Aaron, M. (ed) 1999 The Body's Perilous Pleasures. Endinburgh Edinburgh University Press
I have a textbox that displays text from another cell in the workbook. The other text has some sections in bold, but when it displays in the textbox it doesn't show the bold text - The code I'm using at the moment is below.
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() Dim R As Long ComboBox2.List = Array("QuestionSet1", "QuestionSet2")
My data has various dates in column A, which I group into months using the formula "=DATE(YEAR(A2),MONTH(A2),1)" in column B. Then I format column B to show the results in the format mmm-yy. So far so good.
I then use a pivot table to count the number of entries for each month and I have formatted the date column the same way. But every time I refresh the data (which I need to do frequently as data floods in from external sources), the format of the pivot table reverts to dd/mm/yyyy and I have to go and manually reformat it again.
I've checked all the options I can think of, but cannot find any way to keep the format as I have set it. Does anybody know of a way?
I'm using Excel 2003 on Windows 2000 Professional.
I use pivot tables extensively in my job. I have several spreadsheets that feed from acess database tables to build pivot tables. Besides the fields imported from Acess, I also create calculated fields. The problem is, for both the calculated fields and the imported fields, the number formatting does not stick. I know how to go to field settings, then to number, and change the customized format. The problem is, once I take that field out of the pivot table and bring another one with a different format (say, bring a field with currency format and take away one field with a percentage format) and then bring the original field back to the privot table, the number format is gone.
This is really annoying since I work with dozens of fields, and it takes time to change the number settings every time I change fields on the pivot table, and the number of decimal places, etc. I stress that I know how to change the number formatting on fields, it's just that it excel does not remember it afterwards.
I thought that maybe the formulas in excel might allow one to include the formating, but I have not been able to find if this is possible, and if so, how to do it. So, for example, the following formula for a calculated field:
I have a number in A1, another number in B1, a Date in C1. In D1, I am referencing all 3 of the other cells: =CellA1 & "-" & CellB1 & "----" & CellC1. Trouble is the date is coming through as a number. Is there a way that I can get the date to show as displayed as opposed to the value of the cell?
I have written some code which takes data from multiple spreasheets and formats it in a specif way. However one problem I have is getting the right data format. As you will see from the input files the date and time cells are separated into two and the macro is supposed to aggregate these together in one cell with a space in between - but I cannot manage to perfect this !!! The output is in a number format instead. I have attached the input files. The code written so far is as follows - works perfectly apart from date format that comes is in the output file once you run the code.
Dim Obj1 As Object Dim Obj2 As Object Dim UserList() Sub RunMe() Dim Str1 As String Dim myPath As String Dim i As Integer Set Obj1 = CreateObject("excel.application") myPath = "C:Test" 'please note you should a "" at the end. Str1 = Dir(myPath & "*.xls") Set Obj2 = CreateObject("excel.application") Do Obj1.Application.DisplayAlerts = False Obj1.Workbooks.Open (myPath & Str1) 'For i = 1 To UBound(userslist).............
I am importing a data table from Excel into word. All works well except for the first column of my data, which contains numbers formatted as currency. I am using a bunch of loops to transfer the data into word, and for each cell the code looks like this:
[Code]....
Is there a way to tweak the code and preserve the formatting when I am importing numbers into word?
I tried the following code but it gives me type mismatch error:
I have 2 sheets in one workbook; one sheet has a chart with a data table, the other contains the source data for the chart. I want to copy and move the sheet with the chart to a new workbook, but without the source data. I break all links, but then the chart's data table takes the default values and formats in the new workbook after I break the links. For examples, the source data has formats such as currency and no decimal places. However, after copying the sheet, the data table reverts to no dollar sign and decimal places. In addition, the months on the x-axis turn to numbers when the links are broken.
I am using excel 2007 - I need the extra available columns in Excel 2007 for my application.
I have a spreadsheet that has a significant amount of conditional formatting. I want to copy a range from this spreadsheet to another spreadsheet. In the new spreadsheet I want to remove the conditional formatting rules whilst retaining the actual formats those rules generated.
Format painter and "paste special - format" copies any formats as well as the conditional format rules.
Is htere a method within Excel to do this or can someone suggest a workaround?
To protect formulas and formatting, I have code, which copies a row, with formatting and formulas, from a hidden sheet, unprotect the main sheet, inserts the copied row and reprotect the main sheet. This works great, except with conditional formatting.
My current conditional formatting works on the range: $A$3:$B$100. The copied row is inserted on Row 4. When done, this splits the conditional formatting to: $A$3:$B$3 and $A$5:$B$101, whether or not the copied row contains the same conditional formatting. This makes sense, but is it possible to maintain the original, all-encompassing range? Otherwise I'll end up getting thousands of conditional formatting for each insert.
I need to create a spreadsheet that has approximately 1000 rows with the same exact information in each of them prefilled (as I use the "drag-down" method). I use this chart throughout the year to enter various bits of data in each row. I also use conditional formatting in each row. The company I work for wants to have an empty space between each row. " You can create the blank rows separately and then interleave them with the existing rows by sorting. To start, insert a new column to the left of the existing column A. Enter 1 in cell A1 and highlight column A all the way to the last row that contains data. From the Edit menu select Fill | Series and click on OK. Column A should now contain numbers from 1 to the total number of rows. Press Ctrl-C to copy these cells to the clipboard, click in the cell just below the last of them, and press Ctrl-V to paste. Now highlight the entire data area, including the new rows with just a number in column A. Select Sort from the Data menu and choose the No header row option in the resulting dialog box. Under Sort by select Column A, under Then by select column B, and click on OK. Finally, delete column A. You now have a blank row after every one of the original 1,000-odd rows."
This works great for the data that I copied (with the drag down method) to all the rows. However, this method does not insert an empty line in between all the conditional formatting I have throughout the spreadsheet. This is my conditional formatting formula I have "manage rules" which is under "conditional formatting" =NOT(ISBLANK($A6)) (*please take note that this is selected for 1000 rows.) Maybe there is some kind of change in the formula that I need in order for the conditional formatting method to be copied onto every 2nd line of the 1000 rows".
Whenever I insert a column in Excel 2010 it takes the formatting from the Column to the left. I want to insert a Column without formatting. Just a blank column.
I have cells (all in one column) containing text separated by commas e.g. (SD-299, SD-200, SD-300)
I am trying to transpose the text in these cells into rows.
VB: Sub SplitAndTranspose() Dim N() As String N = Split(ActiveCell, ", ") ActiveCell.Resize(UBound(N) + 1) = WorksheetFunction.Transpose(N) End Sub
The problem with that is that when transposing it does not shift the cells down (/ insert new rows) so I lose the data already in the cells underneath.
Also, that macro would only apply to one cell I would like to be able to apply it all the data in the specific column on my Sheet.
I'm not great anyways with VBA Macro.Effectively, here is my issue. I have a spreadsheet which is really badly designed.In one column I have multiple numbers separated by a comma. I need this data separated into new individual rows, but at the same time, copying the data in the other columns in that row to the new row.
Example of what I have:
Test 1 54 email1 Test 2 32, 343, 63, 34 email2 Test 3 4934, 5342 email 3
What I need:
Test 1 54 email1 Test 2 32 email2 Test 2 343 email2 Test 2 63 email2 Test 2 34 email2 Test 3 4934 email3 Test 3 5342 email3
I have have the following code below which paste everything into a new column and into a new row, but the problem I have is that it does not push the other rows data down, nor does it copy the 1st rows data (for that data set) into the new rows created.
Code: Option Explicit Sub Macro1() Dim fromCol As String Dim toCol As String Dim fromRow As String Dim toRow As String Dim inVal As String Dim outVal As String

The amount of rows I have, so this manually (text to column, then transcoding etc) it out of the questions (i have 1000 rows of this!)
I have a workbook with over 500 rows and those rows are divided in diferent sections, to which I have left five empty rows to add more data, the problem is, how do I add four more rows once I have only one empty row of the five empty ones I had previous? There's also a formula on column H that I'd like to be copied down on to the newly added rows. I don't know how I'm gonna deal with the rest of the other data that is gonna shift down as more rows are added, I said this because I want to be able to do the same on all the sections I have.
I have an excel sheet, where I want to insert a column or more columns between row C and D. The file is attached below. Usually, I would right click row D and choose "insert column". This does not work here. How would you do it?
I am new to VBA and am trying to insert 20 blank rows to my spreadsheet. I know how to add one row, but am not sure how to add 20 rows without repeating the same line of code 20 times.
i have a spread sheet that has a number of different addresses in them I need a vb code that will insert 5 rows between each row of data starting from row 42 and has the possiblity of running to the end of the rows 65536. i believe the best way to do it is via column B which will always have data in it. i have tried a number of methods but they all only insert the rows once or they do it the required ammount of times one after the other so i end up with a whole section of blank rows and all my data still together.
Now I have created an addional column on an other sheet which checks for the row number where a new manual appears. and I have made this look like the row I would like to insert.
The idea i have is to use the above Numbers and the row itself and insert it in to the formated report (working from the bottom though). With this doen for each manual name change.
I have a store report, which every now and again needs to have a new line added for a new store that has been opened. I need a inputbox to display so that you enter a "store number". Once you enter the store number, the macro adds a new line to add the store number in numberical order.
Looking for assistance in inserting 24 blank rows in between a column of names. And if not too much trouble have the ability to enter the number of blank rows to insert.
Before: Column A name1 name2 name3 etc.
After: name1 blank row blank row etc. name2 blank row blank row etc. name3 blank row blank row etc.
I would like to insert rows below each of the subtotals in column D and F in the attached sheet. The current code I am using can only add rows according to one column. I don't know how to modify it so that it works on both columns. Also, when rows are added according to column D, the new inserted rows are filled with colors and I don't know how to remove. Lastly, how can I run this marco in multiple sheets?
Sub InsertRows() Dim i As Integer Dim rRw As Range Set rRw = Range("D1") For i = 1 To WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Columns(4), "* Total") Set rRw = Columns(4). Find(What:="* Total", After:=rRw.Offset(2, 0), LookIn:=xlFormulas, _ LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _ MatchCase:=False) If rRw.Value <> "Grand Total" Then rRw.Offset(1, 0).EntireRow.Insert End If Next i Set rRw = Nothing End Sub
I'm analysing some data sets with variable content, and need to insert blank rows every so often to provide space to do some analysis. The problem I have is that the position of the blank rows change according to the data set, I have been able to calculate how often the row needs to be inserted using VBA as part of my import routine and saved this value to a cell, but I cant figure out how to write the VBA which will insert rows using this value and stop at the end of the data set.
In the attached example I need to insert a row each time the data in column 2 (name) changes, this is the value I have calculated which in this example is 7. So in this attached file I need to insert a row in row 2, row 9 and so on etc. But this is what changes depending upon the "Product" held in colum 1.
