Return To Initial Cell After Running Macro

Oct 24, 2007

I've a workbook with 3 tabs with names "tab1, tab2, difference" and I've a macro that calculates tab1-tab2 and puts the results in tab "difference" This macro runs every time I open the workbook or every time dataset is refreshed on any tab.
everything works great but i've following issue.

let's say my cursor is in tab2 & i refresh/update dataset on tab2 which will trigger macro to update values in tab "difference".. this is good. but, soon after macro runs & updates tab "difference", cursor is no more in tab2 but in tab "difference" this is OK if I've 1 or 2 or few tabs but i've 25 tabs & the user has to go back to the initial tab everytime dataset is updated on any tab. Is there a way for the macro to recognize where the cursor initiallly was & run the macro & place the cursor back to the initial tab?

Running Macro From A Cell

Jul 23, 2014

I am trying to utilise a vba script for DNS resolution which i got from Followup: DNS Lookup and Ping in Excel - CodeProject

I have a list of IP addresses that I want to use this on, however if I test this by using the test instructions, excel does nothing, its just text in a cell, so I would like to know how would this procedure get called from the spreadsheet?

Code:

GetHostname("4.2.2.1") in any Excel cell.

or

Use: GetIpAddress("www.google.com") in any Excel cell.

Autofill: Replicate The Formula Exactly As In The Initial Cell

May 3, 2007

I have two formulas which I'm using: =180*(120.5-1)/119.5 and =90*(60.5-1)/59.5
In the first example, I want to replicate the formula across row 1, but with the value '1' incrementing by 1 each time, upto 240.

In the second example I want the '1' value to also increase by 1 for each cell down column B, up to 120. when I try dragging the formula down or across, I am only able to replicate the formula exactly as in the initial cell (ie. the '1' doesn't change). I've tried using the $ symbol, but this doesn't work. I don't fancy doing this manually for a total of 360 cells!

Macro Only Running One Cell At A Time

Mar 25, 2014

I am new to the whole MACRO VBA thing and I am desperately trying to learn. So this is the Situation. I recorded a macro of an If statement on a row. very simple. Some of the rows below ( Like 700) need the same formula that I recorded. I would like to highlight the cells that need the formula and run the macro on them. however the macro only runs one at a time. Is there a way that this can be avoided?

Running Macro After Typing Into A Cell?

Mar 23, 2012

Is it possible to have a macro run as soon as there is text typed into cell A2? Basically, I have a form that needs to be filled out, but somehow, users forget to put their name in the box. So I don't want any information to be able to be typed in until a name is entered.

Prevent Macro From Running If Cell Is Red

Apr 29, 2008

I have a macro that is run by clicking on a macro button. The macro copies the data from Sheet1 and pastes it in another sheet, Sheet2. I added some conditional formatting that colors certain cells red if others are blank on Sheet1. I would like to add some code to my macro that will not allow it to copy and paste from sheet1 to sheet2 if there are any red cells in the range.

How To Find Middle Initial And Replace With Blank Cell

Aug 28, 2012

I have a listing with Middle Initials in column D. D also contains dates and Names. I want to remove the Middle Initials only. I need to do this without moving around cells. So a Find:="A", Replacement:="" type of situation. Right now I have 26 two line entries to take care of this, but I know it has to be easier and use less lines. (Trying to consolidate code for a better look).

Here is some of what I have (that works, but is long):

Code:
'
' Replace Middle Initial from Prod Sheet
'
Cells.Replace What:="A", Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder _
:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=True, SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False

[Code]...

I thought that I might be able to do something like this, but I can't get it to work.

Code:

Dim Alpha as Variant
Alpha = Array("A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "G", "H", "I", "J", "K", "L", "M", "N", "O", "P", "Q", "R", "S", "T", "U", "V", "W", "X", "Y", "Z")
For ABet = 1 to Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUP).Row
If Range(ABet) = Alpha Then Range(ABet) = ""
Next ABet

' or I thought maybe this would work.

Cells.Replace What:=("A", "L", "R", "M") Replacement:="", LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder _ :=xlByRows, MatchCase:=True, SearchFormat:=False, ReplaceFormat:=False

' or I thought maybe this would work with the variables.

If Range("B" & ABet) = Alpha Then Range("A" & ABet) = "" None of them worked though.

Running Totals In A Single Cell- Macro

Feb 2, 2009

I have been trying to find a macro that would allow me to keep a running total in a cell by adding a number to that cell and the same cell would display the sum of the numbers entered. {i.e.} If cell a1 has 0 in it and i click on that cell and put 3 in it would display 3 if i added 2 to it it would display 5 and so on. I need it to do this for about 182 cells on one page.I found this macro that runs automatically every time and works great......But only for one cell so far..."D3"...Ugh!!! I need this macro to work for the following range of cells "colums d thru j from row 3 down to 28 in each colum. Each cell is an individual. There are 182 cells total that each need this macro to work ...all on one page


Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
Static dAccumulator As Double
With Target
If .Address(False, False) = "D3" Then
If Not IsEmpty(.Value) And IsNumeric(.Value) Then
dAccumulator = dAccumulator + .Value
Else
dAccumulator = 0
End If
Application.EnableEvents = False
.Value = dAccumulator
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End With
End Sub

As you see the macro includes cell D3 only, I have made several attempts to include more cells but have failed.... I tried like this


If .Address(False, False) = "D3,E3,F3,G3,H3,I3,J3,D4,E4...and so on" Then

I have tried ....If .Address(False, False) = "D3:J3" Then
and I have tried ....If .Address(False, False) = "23Rx7C" Then
I can make it work for cell d3 but not the others. Will I have to repeat this code for every cell?

Running A Macro To Copy Multiple Cells From A Row By Selecting A Cell

Feb 21, 2009

I want to be able to select a cell, for example A10, this would then run a macro that would copy and paste several cells of information along that row and paste it on another worksheet. However, if i then choose a15, a3, a79 in turn (using the control key), it would run the macro using those rows in turn.

i'm looking forward to hearing if and particuliar how this could be achieved.

Running Multiple In VBA Instances: Controlling Spread Sheet Always Waits For The Code To Return Before It Continues

Apr 28, 2009

i have a spread sheet which has a very complex simulaton in it. excel is not the ideal place for it, but it is not possible to port it wholesale to something more sensible. i have modified the code so that it is possible to run two copies of the spread sheet (in two seperate excel processes) at one time. Due to the dual core nature of the machine this has almost no overhead.

I have created a controlling spread sheet that is cabable of launching multiple copies of the simulation and starting the code executing. the problem is the controlling spread sheet always waits for the code to return before it continues, hence it would open two seperate versions of excel, start the first simulation executing and then wait until it completes before starting the next one. is there any way of starting a function in another work book without waiting for the execution to complete?

Macro Stops Running The Macro Completely And Hangs In The Middle

Jul 3, 2007

Here in our department we made a pretty elaborate macro that takes a report and sorts them out to 17 different sheets in a one workbook. This Macro pulls a file from a specific location on our server and then opens the CSV sorts it out color codes all the important information and saves it back onto the server under you specific initials.

They are four PC's along with our Managers laptop that run this Macro daily.

About 3 weeks ago my Managers laptop stops running the Macro completely and hangs in the middle of the whole thing. Eventually crashing Excel.

We try to remove the modules and re-import them back into the personal macro workbork but this does not work. The Macro's did not change and still fully function on the other four desktops to this day.

I uninstall Office on my Managers laptop and reinstall. Import the Modules again and still hangs up in very same spot it did 3 weeks ago.

I've tried to lower the macro security to the lowest level also and I've still had no luck with this laptop. I don't understand. The Macro's function perfectly on other PC's but will not function on this laptop.

Return To Active Cell After Macro Run

Jul 24, 2007

I am using Excel to tabulate scores for my employees. We work in a very busy and open office, so there is a need to be able to obfuscate the scores, but also help keep from losing my place while punching the scores.

I would like it to be able to return to the last cell that I was punching a score in...I used "ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlLastCell).Select". I have also used " x= cells(Rows.count,2).end(xlUP).row" followed by "cells(x+1,2).select", but both with no luck...

Sub Hide_Scores()
Range("B15:EU35").Select
ActiveSheet. Unprotect
With Selection
.HorizontalAlignment = xlCenter
.VerticalAlignment = xlCenter
.WrapText = False
.Orientation = 0

Return To Original Cell After Freeze Panes Macro

Dec 3, 2007

I have a workbook where I have columns requiring entry from A to AD. I have set conditional formatting in column A to show a colour if there is an entry in column AD. I would like to use a macro to always freeze panes in column D (to show the data in the first 3 columns) and the macro would then show column AD in the other frozen pane/split.

As there will always be an entry in column A but not always in column AD I want to be able to select any highlighted row in column A , run the macro and the cursor will be showing in column AD on the same row ( relative reference?) thus showing the entry in AD next to the other info in columns A, B and C.

At the moment I have a macro that unfreezes my header row and is set to always choose the "next empty cell" but I don't know the code to change it to get what I want. Currently if I select any entry in column A e.g. row 100 and run the macro I find the cursor showing in AD2! Of course I would like to run another macro to return back to A on the same row too.....

VBA Initial Array Value

Jan 21, 2007

I have declared arrays for the variables in the code segment below. There is however a problem with the way I've initialized C and F as I the compiler stops C(1) and displays the message: "Compile Error: Expected Array." For the calculation to proceed correctly, the first values of the C(i) and F(i) arrays need to be one and zero respectively.

Is there a way to initialize these variables to these values?

Art

C(1) = 1
F(1) = 0
G(1) = Y(1)
B(i) = C(i - 1) + Q
C(i) = (1 + B(i) ^ (-1)) ^ (-1)
F(i) = 1 / (1 + B(i))
G(i) = F(i) * G(i - 1) + (1 - F(i)) * Y(i)
arrKAL1(i)= G(i)

Hyperlink Initial Path

Aug 14, 2008

When inserting a hyperlink in an Excel cell, the default pathname for the new link is always the current pathname of the workbook. After navigating to a distant pathname and inserting a hyperlink, inserting the next hyperlink in the next cell starts all over again at the current path.

Is there a method of telling Excel to start looking in z:\ABC instead of the current path? This would eliminate navigating through the entire path for each link.

A macro that handles the hyperlink and puts up a navigation window or something like that would be ok.
