Return To The Last Active Sheet
I have a spreadsheet that is nearly 100 worksheets. I am new to VBA and would like to put a button on each tab to return me to the last active sheet. I've tried other codes I've found on here but with no luck. I'm not sure if i'm posting them to the right area within VBA.

Macro Copy Of The Active Sheet And Then Rename The New Copied Sheet
I'm trying to create a copy of the active sheet and then rename the new copied sheet to what's in cell O4, which is a formula (see below) and then paste value cell O4 in B3 of the copied sheet. However, when I run this macro it doesn't seem to like the second line where I am renaming the sheet (run time error '1004'). "O4" =DATE(YEAR($B$3),MONTH($B$3)+1,DAY($B$3)) Sub NewMonth() ActiveSheet.Copy Before:=Sheets(Sheets.Count) ActiveSheet.Name = Range("O4").Value ActiveSheet.Range("O4").Copy ActiveSheet.Range("B3").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues End Sub

Keep Hidden Sheet Made Visible As Active Sheet
I have a button on a sheet that runs a macro to unhide another sheet. That works, but I want the sheet made visible to remain forward. Instead, the button unhides the sheet and the sheet the button is on comes forward again. I am unable to figure how to keep the sheet made visible forward. Here is the macro 'as recorded'. Sub UnhideSheet1() Sheet2.Visible = True End Sub

Return To Active Cell After Macro Run
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 Active Cell's Location/row
I'm having trouble identifing a way to return a location for the position of the active cell. I've searched Excel help with "Position, location, return, activecell, etc." and I can't seem to figure this out. I know that it's possible, so that's why I'm on here! ... Ok, say the active cell is currently "F1", and I need the location "F1" to identify the ROW to be used in a formula later, how would I go about that? The current contents of cell "F1"' will be "REPLACE", but I need to change the words "REPLACE" in "F1" and other cells labeled "REPLACE" in column F to the following formula (where the "1" in "A1" is is the current row):

Find Active Sheet In A Workbook
I am creating a macro that will open another workbook and take all the contents off a page in it and paste the contents to itself. The problem is that sometimes those workbooks will only have one page and it will have the data I need, but sometimes there will be two or three pages in the workbook, but again, with only one sheet that has data on it. How can I have the macro find the one page with data on it?

Reference Chart By Name That Is Not On Active Sheet
I am trying to select cells, tables and charts by just knowing their name. Thus if possible I would like to only refer to a chart by its name i.e. not know what worksheet they are on. This seems to work for named ranges of cells/tables, but not charts (I can't get my named charts to appear in the "Define Name" dialog). I found this code that loops through charts on the activesheet and shows the names. However, I would much prefer not to have to specify the sheet or to loop through all the sheets trying to locate the one with the named chart. Public Sub GetEmbeddedCharts() Dim myChart As ChartObject Dim myCharts As ChartObjects Set myCharts = ActiveSheet.ChartObjects For Each myChart In myCharts Debug.Print myChart.Chart.Name Next End Sub

UDF #VALUE! Error On Non-Active Sheet
I have data that is laid out as follows: Date, amount1, amount2 and a value in $ There are many rows, and there will be more than one row for each date. see attached worksheet for an example. I want to create a table that will provide me totals of the amounts and the value for each date. I have managed to do this, using subtotals, but this gets quite slow, and in any case I want to be able to reference each of the subtotals with another sheet, so I tried to use pivot tables. I managed to do the above by using three pivot tables Date/Amount1 then Date/Amount2 and finally Date/Value, and hiding the extra two date columns. However my next table of data contains 10,000 rows and over 20 columns, so I am wondering if the above can be done within one pivot table. I know very little about pivot tables, and when I try to drop a second data item in, it always puts it below the first rather than in a separate column, and I get a table looking like the one in the attached worksheet. Am I doing something very basic, wrong? Is it possible to get a single pivot table, to look like my first summary chart in the attached worksheet. If I can do it with three columns, then I should be able to extend it to my much larger table of data.

Rename Embedded Active Chart Sheet Name
For example, a cell on the screen is blank. When the page is printed, the "blank cell" has printed text. I checked "format cells" and it shows word wrap, merge cells, and left to right. I was told to "un-merge" the cells. I did that and I still have the problem. The color on all the cells is OK at a blue shade. When I look at print preview the cells are blank, but when the sheet is printed, the text shows. Also, it looks like there are 2-3 cells inside the main cell. I hope I have explained this properly, it is not easy to use the correct language to describe since I am not very good at using Excel.

Macro To Update Links In Active Sheet Only
I have a workbook which has links to another excel workbook (source). This workbook has many sheets -all exact copy- with different names. I changed startup prompt (edit->links) to "dont display the alert and dont update automatic links". Then I recorded a macro for updating links (from source) and assigned this macro to a button. What I want to do is when I click this update button I want links to be updated only on the active sheet that Im on. My problem is, when I press this button, it updates all links including other sheets (basically whole workbook). My current macro is (I dont know coding but I tried changing ActiveWorkbook to ActiveSheet but it didnt work): Sub update() ActiveWorkbook.UpdateLink Name:= _ "C:Documents and SettingsAlperDesktopExcelsource.xls", Type _ :=xlExcelLinks End Sub

Named Range That Refers To Active Sheet
is there a way to have the same named range cover a range of cells regardless of which sheet you are on? They seem to want to default to the page you are on. I want to make some VBA subroutines that will go over each sheet, and perform the same functions on each sheet. All sheets have the same format, but different data. I guess worst case scenario I can just break down and use multiple workbooks, but this seems a little less desirable. Should I be dividing this into seperate posts?

Lookup Single Value In One Sheet, Return Multiple Results From The Other Sheet
i have two sheets, one to display results (Reults tab) & the other tab containing the data (Data tab) what i am trying to do is some how create a search function and have a forumula which contains a LIKE function that looks up the data table RANGE = Data!A2:K255 the search needs to lookup the primary column Data!B2:B255 ... if any results are found .. show them on the results tab.. and if multiple results are found, display those as well.. (in either instance, the whole row of information in respect to the results need to be dislayed and hopefully no duplicates are found .. eg, Data!A:K of a hit) is there a formula that can achieve this? oh, the search is TEXT based and there should be no empty cells within the dataset after some MASSIVE googling, i have stumbled accross this B1 = Search box (txt field) A6 (which will be a hidden column) contains =MATCH($B$1,Data!A2:A255,0). this formula provides the first instance of the result and provides the row number A7 contains =MATCH($B$1,OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6+1,0,8-(A6+1),1),0)+A6. this is supposed to look for the next row number which contains a match and provide that row number and througout my other columns, i have B6=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,1) B7=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,2) B8=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,3) and so on 2 things i cannot recitify.. 1, the match has to be EXACT ... unfortunately i cannot use exact .. needs to be LIKE .. eg, i cant use the search word "boat" as the range of data has "boats" 2, it comes up with multile .. irrelevent results.

Copy Range Of Cells To Active Row In Second Sheet
Sheet 1 has data entered into it, it is then printed out as a jobsheet, saved and the data cleared. There are certain fields on this sheet that are eventually manually replicated onto sheet 2. The row in which they must go on sheet 2 will always be the 'activerow' on that sheet from a previous operation. It would make life so much easier and save lots of time if I could incorporate copying cells C10,C12,K8,K12,M2,C27 and C29 from sheet 1 to respective cells H,I,J,M,N,R,S of the active row on sheet 2 before I carry out the clear data process.

Indirect: Reflect The Data In The Active Sheet Or Give Me A #VALUE Error
I am running the formula =VALUE(RIGHT(CELL("filename"),15)) to read the tab name in a workbook with 90 sheets. When a new account is opened, the operator inserts a new sheet from a template (which contains the above formula), and labels the tab to the account number. The formula then 'reads' in the account number and performs look-ups based on it. The problem is that the sheets are only working when the sheet is active. They all seem to reflect the data in the active sheet or give me a #VALUE error. Where am I going wrong? How do I fix the problem?

Create Macro To Chart Data With Location As Object In Active Sheet
I have been trying to create a macro in excel to chart a selection of data and to output the chart on the active sheet where the data was taken (as opposed to a named sheet). So basically, I have about 300 worksheets with data, and I would like to have a button on each page that automatically charts that data when clicked, and outputs the chart to the page where the macro was clicked. However, I have not been able to figure out a relative reference that will allow me to make the LocationasObject reference simply the ActiveSheet as opposed to a specifically named sheet. See my code below, which references an output to a worksheet called "Charts". Right now, all of my charts are outputting to the sheet called "Charts", as opposed to the active sheet. Sub ConsDiscChart() ActiveCell.Offset(29, 11).Range("A1").Select Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select Selection.End(xlUp).Select Selection.End(xlUp).Select Selection.End(xlUp).Select Selection.End(xlUp).Select Selection.End(xlUp).Select Selection.End(xlUp).Select Selection.End(xlDown).Select ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Range("A1:B1").Select Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Range("A1:C24").Select Charts.Add ActiveChart.ChartType = xlLineMarkers ActiveChart.Location Where:=xlLocationAsObject, Name:="Charts" With ActiveChart .HasTitle = False .Axes(xlCategory, xlPrimary).HasTitle = False .Axes(xlValue, xlPrimary).HasTitle = False End With End Sub

The number of sheets will be different always as I will be adding this to different workbooks and also because new sheets may be added to any workbook at any time.

Find Method To Search For The Active And Non Active Values
I have a range of amounts in Sheet 1 from F7:Q13 and im using the find method to search for the active and non active values in the cell. Which means that if there's a value in the cell it will transfer the value in Sheet 2, if nothing is found in the cell the cells in Sheet 2 will return as nothing or null. I think the problem lies on the FindWhat variable. Im getting a compiled error which im not sure what is it. I've attached the spreadsheet so you get a better idea of the problem that i encountered.

Vb Return To Original Sheet To Paste

There many sheets that require this from a button click on the sheet and instead of storing the graphic in all sheets I just want 1 copy so file closes faster. I would normally just name the original sheet, but this will change with every sheet.
