I lost my right click option in excel, all I get is a little gray box that does nothing. I know it is something I did today, it has worked perfect before. Has anyone seen this happen, the problem is only in excell 2003.
When right clicking on the sheet tab, I need to know if it is possible to remove the "Delete" from being an option. My workbook is structured to where if a single sheet is deleted, it screws up all my formulas. I tried to just password protect the workbook, but doing that removes the "Rename" function, which I still need.
This area of my worksheet, Sheets("ACTIVITY").Range("AM2:AM172"), is currently populated by text values from a dynamic, validated list, 'DEL_2'.
Is there a simple way to effectively 'toggle' (on/off) data validation - maybe with right-click - in this area, so that the user can type what they want if their chosen option can't be found in DEL_2?
I have several option groups (Y & N in each) linked to cells to display TRUE / FALSE depending on which option is selected in each group. I have another cell which I want to apply conditional formatting to if EITHER Y or N is selected in all groups. At present I use COUNTIF to check for FALSE=0 in the linked cells which works if all the answers are Y. How do I apply CF if there is a mixture of Y & N (TRUE / FALSE) in all groups (I'm not sure if I've explained that well or not).
Running into this issue of "transworksheet macros"
I have a master "update" commandbutton on sheet 1. I have two sub "update" buttons on sheet 2 and 3 respectively.
What I would like to do is have the user click the master button, that would "click" the two sub buttons so they run their respective macros on their respective worksheets (within the same worksheet.
I have tried pasting the macro code in the master button, telling it to select the sub worksheet and then run the macro, but the marco runs itself on the master worksheet instead.
If you have 5 option boxes in the group at the top of a form and want to make sure the user of the form selects at least one box before continuing on, how do you do that?
I am trying to have a msgbox come up if there is a path found it will pop up a msgbox for a few seconds then go away. Im trying to avoid the user from having to select anything just simpley telling them the connection is there then go away on its on. The code below is what Im currently using.
Code: If Dir("H:") = "" Then MsgBox "Error: Drive, path or file not found" Else MsgBox "OK: Drive, path or file found" End If
I created a frame in a spreadsheet I put in 2 options buttons that I called Left the first one and Right the second one. I got 2 cells lets say C10 and G10 in these 2 cells I write the cell number values. When I click on button one or Left, I need the cell C10 be set focussed and write a number e.j 5. However, when click on the second butt to write a number e.j 7, the number in the cell C10 still there, so, what I need is a cero or an empty cell C10, and viceversa. Could you help to write a code for this problem.
i've used this a few times at the top of various modules, as suggested by various knowledgable people on here, but it might be a good idea to find out what it means, and what it actually does!
1) I have a macro workbook with multiple procedures (6 main tasks)
2) Some workbooks will use all procedures, and some will not use all procedures (most use either 4 or 6 of the procedures)
3) To hide the unwanted procedures as required, the menus will not appear for those choices (in code that creates custom toolbars on activate)
Solution (proposed):
1) send a paramarray argument with string elements that identify menus to use
2) send a “show all” true or false, to simplify identification of workbooks that use all procedures
Reason solution is chosen:
1) I can basically have one macro workbook this way – so simple implementation even where some workbooks won’t need all the macros (and should definitely not be making them menu options).
2) If I add more routines, I can just extend the ParamArray as needed and continue to identify specific toolbar options to use or not use.
Problem:
1) That paramarray is interesting! It can’t be passed and its initialized as an array with bounds 0 to -1. Also, it can’t be tested directly to see if its Empty. So I came up with checking for the -1 UBound, combined with loading the elements into another array (seems stilted to me).
I’m not sure what I’m asking, but…I need to determine if the paramarray is being used, and be able to pass it. Is there a simple way to do that? As I’m sitting here writing I’m realizing I could just pass a regular array and dispense with the ParamArray option -- well, I’ll post my thoughts anyway. Sorry this is so rambling…
Here’s the code I’m using (basically). Note that DoSomething actually checks each element of the array to see if it matches a potential menu item (by name), and if so, marks that menu item to be added - since there's 6 menu options, I placed it in a separate method to avoid have it in the routine 6 times.
Maybe I'm just curious if anyone ever successfully uses the ParamArray option - it seems to me to be somewhat of a bother that you can't easily tell if it's been passed in or not, or use it like a regular array (check if its empty, etc.).
Sub MyToolbar(ByVal blnShowAll, ParamArray args() As Variant) Dim a() As Variant Dim x As Variant
I have some VB code "For, next" that I have written with numerous variables. All the data appears to be totaling correctly. After reading some comments on this site I added Option Explicit to the top. Well, it stops on my first For Each Cell, with cell highlighted and an error message 'variable not defined'. I have searched and searched and can't find what it might be. Does this error message mean I am getting incorrect results? Is there an easy way to determine which variable is not assigned? A function key or something?
I work on a worksheet that has 10,000 rows all in column A with members that have 353 different plans.
Here is an example:
Robert James Ted Ronald This is for plan 426-0 Amanda Nikki
This is the total for plan 426-7000
I need to move the plan type for each member to column c. When moving the plan type I only want the number have the dash. For Robert/James/Ted in column C the plan type is 0. For Amanda and Nikki in column C the plan type is 7000. I have created a macro that can move the plan over but not the number after the dash.
Here is what I have come up with so far.
Option Explicit Option Compare Text
Sub R007() Dim i As Long Dim sPlan As String
For i = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row To 2 Step -1 If Left(Cells(i, 1), 5) = "Plan " Then sPlan = Cells(i, 1) Rows(i).Delete Else Cells(i, 3) = sPlan End If Next End Sub
I have a COUNTIFS function that, among other criteria, only counts cells in which the value is "P". I now want to modify this function to count cells in which the value is "LA" in addition to cells in which the value is "P". I'm not sure how to work this into the argument. I tried using OR("P","LA"), but that's not working.
I'm trying to replace a bunch of checkboxes on a sheet with a bunch of Form Control Option Buttons. The problem I'm having is every option button I add seems to be grouped with all of the rest of my option buttons. If I add buttons 1 & 2, I need those 2 grouped together, and when I add 3 & 4, I need those grouped together. Currently it's grouping all 4 buttons together so 1 - 4 are linked, but I need 1 & 2 linked together, and 3 & 4 linked together. I've tried grouping, but it still doesn't function how it ought to.
Attached I have kind of a score card, when you open the tab named TEAM1 a userform pops up and I pick the partners that played together, then I can pick an option button labeled 0,1,2 or 3, when it unloads, is it possible to make it put the corresponding number by their names in the empty row (W) of the week they are playing?, and not just the 1st open row available?
For example, if I pick the names Ryan and Stu the number will go under week 10 (X3) and not find the empty cell in (J3)?, I have no clue how to make this happen, but I made a userform to use, to try and make it work.
I use Excel2007 and saved this workbook as excel2003, the combo box doesn't dropdown anymore? I don't understand why....is it just settings? If you could have a look at the code I use for the option buttons...when I select the first optionbutton it calls the msgbox without selecting the offset cells. From optionbutton2 onwards it works fine.
I have a worksheet where the user selects between two option controls, which are mutually exclusive. when they toggle an option, a user form pops up, depending on which option they selected, and askes them for a number, which is used in a calculation elsewhere in the page. The user form has a cancel button, in case they decide to back out. If they cancel, I want the option buttons to reset back to their original state.
The problem I'm having is that when I code it, if you select cancel on the user form, it causes the option to revert back to it's previous state, but that triggers the selection of the option again, which pops up the form, making a neverending loop! Is there a better way to do this? I tried it with a toggle button, with the same results.
