Run Macro Sequence On Set Cell Changed By Drop-Down

Aug 25, 2008

I have found a macro that should work with a change of a specific cell.

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$A$7" Then
Call Button
End If
End Sub

However, the code doesn t work as with a change of A7 nothing happens.
A7 equals to result from a drop down list --> A7=A5(which is a drop down list value). The "Button" macro is a combination of 4 macros that get rid of zero values and names in pie charts (maybe this plays any role). The master macro is assigned to an object. The code is:

Sub Button1()
Sheets("report").Select
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Chart 140").Activate
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).ApplyDataLabels AutoText:=True, LegendKey:= _
False, HasLeaderLines:=True, ShowSeriesName:=False, ShowCategoryName:= _
True, ShowValue:=True, ShowPercentage:=False, ShowBubbleSize:=False, _
Separator:=" "...................

Run A Macro When A Drop Down List Choice Is Changed

Jul 23, 2007

I am using INDIRECT to create a second dynamic drop down list (L1) that is based on the cell contents of a first drop down list (I1). I want to create a macro that will blank the 2nd drop down list ONLY when the choice in the first list is CHANGED. I have the following, but it blanks the second list as soon as the first list is clicked on, rather than when a change is made:

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)

If Not Intersect(Range("I1"), Target) Is Nothing Then Range("L1").ClearContents

End Sub

Return Corresponding Value When Drop-Down List Changed

Oct 3, 2009

I'm making a spreadsheet where I want the user to select an item in A1 from a List made using Data Validation. When the person makes the selection in A1 I want the next 5 columns to automatically display specific attributes that belong to A1. However, I'd like the user to then be able to change each of these items (in B1-F1) from their own individual Validation Lists. I'm using this to mix and match mythical monsters. So in A1 I have well known monsters like Jaws, Godzilla and the Lochness Monster. When you select one of these creatures, that creature's specific attributes show up in the next 5 columns -- things like Appearance, Motive, MO, Hideout, and Special Features. I then want to be able to change Appearance, Motive, MO, Hideout, and Special Features individually from their own Validation List. I basically just want to mix and match between the various creatures.

I've gotten it only partially working by doing the following: At the bottom of the page (for simplicity, I have everything in 1 sheet but I intend to move the "data" table for the Lists to their own sheet) I have a table where in the row for each creature I have the different attributes. A1 (my "creature name") was made using Data Validation from the A column. For the next column I made a Data Validation List for the items. Once that pulldown was made, I then went to the B1 cell and used VLOOKUP to autofill the cell when the person makes their "A1" selection. I repeated this for cells C1-F1. This works ok the first time you make a selection. But whenever you change the "default" value for B2 using the validation drop down list, the Vlookup formula is replaced by the actual text value. This results in the cell not changing when the person next changes the A1 value.

Vlookup Changed Validated Cell Value In Macro

Jul 2, 2009

I have a worksheet containing a cell (say A1) that has a validated list of times (data/validation/list) where the cells in the list contain times in 8 minute increments. The user can select cell A1 and manually select any of the validated times from the list. A vlookup formula on this worksheet uses the content of cell A1 to look for this time in another section of the worksheet. When the time is selected manually, the vlookup formula works properly.

As part of a macro, the macro will change the time in cell A1. I do this in the macro by selecting and copying the desired time from the validation list and pasting it into A1. Cell A1 does change to the new value, however the vlookup formula that uses A1 shows a result of #N/A. If I manually change the time, it again works. I am looking for a way to have the macro change this cell to another time and for the vlookup formula to work as it should.

Macro To Change Sheet Name When Cell Value Is Changed?

Jun 21, 2012

I would like to create a macro that will automatically change the name of the sheet any time a value is entered into cell a1. For example, in cell A1 of sheet1 I would input "Hello", and then the tab for sheet1 would be automatically renamed to "Hello".

Here's the twist - the workbook will have multiple sheets, and I want all tabs to reflect the value of a specific cell (a1) in each sheet.

For example:

value in sheet1, cell a1 = "Yes" - corresponding tab name would change to "Yes"
value in sheet2, cell a1 = "No" - corresponding tab name would change to "No"
value in sheet3, cell a1 = "Maybe" - corresponding tab name would change to "Maybe"
etc...

The "tab change" cell would always be cell a1 in each sheet.

Macro / VBA To Copy And Paste If Cell Is Changed?

Dec 18, 2013

- A database sheet called 'QAEQUIP' which contains information on the movements of pieces of equipment. This information in in order of Column A which is a movements reference number.

- A reporting sheet called 'Email sheet', which you put in a month and year and using macros it copy and pastes the relevant rows from the database and puts them in date order (e.g. put in October 2013 and it will show all of the equipment moves that happened in October 2013, and in date order).

What my end user would like, is to be able to add text to an extra column on the reporting page which gets fed into the database on the corresponding row. What would the best way to do this be? I was thinking VBA for each row (there aren't that many rows) that says if this cell is changed, copy and paste the cell into the corresponding row / column on 'QAEQUIP'.

Automatically Call Macro Based On Changed Cell Address & Text

Apr 13, 2009

I have the following code pasted into the worksheet module which used to work fine but no longer does. I didn't touch the code, it just stopped working.


Private Sub WorkSheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Select Case Target.Address
Case "$A$16"
Select Case Target
Case "Custom Color 1": Call CustomColorInput1
Case "Custom Color 2": Call CustomColorInput1
Case "Custom Color 3": Call CustomColorInput1
Case "Custom Color 4": Call CustomColorInput1
Case Else:
End Select
Case "$A$17"
Select Case Target
Case "Custom Color 1": Call CustomColorInput2
Case "Custom Color 2": Call CustomColorInput2
Case "Custom Color 3": Call CustomColorInput2
Case "Custom Color 4": Call CustomColorInput2
Case Else:
End Select
Case "$A$18"

CustomColorInput 1-6 are the same except they input data into different cells F16-F21.

When I attach any of the CustomColorInput macros to a button it works fine. When I try to call it from the worksheet module, the data input box pops up but the data doesn't get entered into the cell. When I try to step through the CustomColorInput macros using F8, the input box pops up, I enter data and press ok. Then I continue with F8 and the debugger jumps to a custom function that I entered (below), which is not called for and is in no way related to the code.

Function PullAfterLast(rCell As Range, strLast As String)
PullAfterLast = Mid(rCell, InStrRev(rCell, strLast) + 1, 256)
End Function

When I close VBA, the data that I typed into the data input box is in the correct cell.

So basically, I'm getting three different responses from the offending code depending on how I call it up. Can anyone tell me what's going on?

More generally, in this and previous occasions, I've had problems with macros that cease to work for no reason that is apparent to me. What are some things that would cause a macro to stop working, without actually changing the code (other than the obvious, like referring to names or worksheets etc. that don't exist anymore)?

Step 1. In Col E a list of amounts will be pasted on a daily basis.

Step2. I need a macro that will look at the last code in Col F and apply the next sequence so $36,543.00 will have OPS003, since i might paste more than one amount in Col E i would like the macro to do the same thing also in Col F. I have a formula in G which will tell me what amounts are outstanding and which have cleared.

Macro Use After File Name Is Changed

Oct 28, 2009

I use Excel 2003. With a LOT of help from this board, I've written some macros for a workbook template that will be opened then saved with another name with an .xls extension. The problem is that the macros transfer data to and from another workbook template. Here's the code that's giving me problems.
Windows("BookA.xlt").Activate
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
ActiveWorkbook.Save
Range("A1").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Selection.Copy
Windows("BookB.xlt").Activate
How can I use the macro if I open BookA.xlt then change the name to BookZ.xls for my data entries? At the same time BookZ is open, I may use another instance of BookA.xlt and save that one as BookY.xls. What's the most feasible way to still use the macros?

Trigger Macro When Cells Changed By VLookup

Dec 6, 2013

Colouring calendar entries based on a date match... VBA to colour a cell on each line based on date match

The code works fine if you change the date in the cell and press enter however my date changes are triggered via a Vlookup which the code doesn't recognise has changed so doesn't trigger the macro.

Is there any way to amend the VBA code shown below so that it triggers the macro when dates are changed in column I via Vlookup?

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("I:I")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Target.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone

Macro Assignment Lost When File Name Is Changed

Nov 17, 2007

When I use customize and assign a macro (to a button) I set the "Marco In" option to "This Workbook" then select a macro from the available list. If you close the Assign Macro dialog and open it again, notice how it appends the name of the file to the macro name. Later, in an automated process the xls filename is appended with a value and I think this is causing the problem because the appended data is static and thus no longer is in sync with the new (latest) filename. How do I assign macro's to either custom toolbar's or autoshapes so that the assignment is tolerant of file name changes? I tried to delete the appended data but it is appended automatically.

I am also curious why some of the macro's listed in the dialog include a filename and macro name delimited with an exclaimation mark and some are macro name only (with no delimiter).

Macro For Putting Index Reference Numbers In Numerical Sequence?

Nov 12, 2012

I have a document that is a subject index for book that has terms that reference page numbers. The structure is for example: Employment, 587, 592, 553, 605, 233 The term is always following by comma and then space and listing of page numbers that subject reference applies. In many cases the page number references are out of sequence and I need them to be in numerical sequence. i.e. Employment, 233, 553, 587, 592, 605 There are many subject terms in index and need to check and fix sequence of page references for each.

Sort Macro Reverses When Anything Changed / Added To List

May 13, 2013

I used the "record macro" to record a simple sorting (high to low) of columns A-F based on values (0-3) in column A. Everything works when I initially institute the macro. However, when I change anything or add a new item at the end of the list, the order reverses and sorting goes from lowest to highest.?

Here is what ended up in the macro:

Code:
Sub SortColumnA()
' SortColumnA Macro
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Sort.SortFields.Clear

[Code]....

I noticed that it only includes a fixed value for the length of the list (row 90). Is there a way to have it increase when anything new is added?

As of now I plan on just making an arbitrary large index (~200 ish) to automatically grab anything new.

Drop Down List Which Returns Values Based On What Has Been Selected In The Previous Drop Down List In The Adjacent Cell

Mar 19, 2009

I'm trying to create a drop down list which returns values based on what has been selected in the previous drop down list in the adjacent cell, e.g. if 'Apples' is selected in the previous cell then you should only be able to select from 'Gala, Granny Smith', or if 'Oranges' is selected you should only be able to select 'Seville, Blood Orange'. Is there a formula which would do this, or can I use a pivot table somehow? I'm totally stumped.

Send Row Number Of Changed Cell To Cell Where Row Resides In Cell

Apr 26, 2008

I have the following range of cells B2:Y3700. I want that when a value from 1 to 9999 is inserted in one cell of the above mentioned range, to copy the row number of that cell in the cell that is located in column Z and row is the number inserted in that cell. For example, if the number "1234" is inserted in one cell from range B2:Y3700, to enter in cell Z1234 the number of the row where is located the respective cell. At same the time is very important to me to not permit to insert the same number in B2:Y3700, so i believe that is need a macro code to check the cell from column z to see if value already exist .

Save When Cell Is Changed?

Jul 24, 2009

Is it possible to save a workbook whenever any changes are made to any cell in a specific column? The reason - I'm putting an excel workbook out on a network drive for 4-5people to share. The sheet contains work items which are imported every 4 hours... Column A contains the status.

I want to save the file every time anybody changes a status to prevent multiple users from working on the same item. I realize that I could build a form then load each workitem into the form, then apply the save to a change event on the field/control, but that's something for next week - I need to get this out the door, bare bones, as soon as possible.

Insert A Date In A Cell When Another Cell's Number Has Been Changed

Dec 6, 2013

I am looking to insert a date in a Cell when another Cell's number has been changed.

I was using If statement as: If(isnumber(f4),TODAY())

but I don't think it is working properly

the cells columns would be, e.g. "Consumables stock" and "date updated".

So if someone changes a number is the "consumables stock" column, date updated column auto-updates with current date. How would I go by in doing this?
