The following macro works when I run using Alt+F8+Enter
The macro also works when it is linked to a button on the worksheet.
However, it does not work when I try to use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Shift+P.
I've tried adding the shortcut key code into the macro -- still doesn't work.
I've tried changing the shortcut key to a different letter
I want to disable ALL shortcut key functions in my program. (i.e. if a user presses Ctrl+S it will NOT save, Ctrl+O will NOT open file, etc).
Of course I need this enabled again in something like workbook close for users to have this ability in other workbooks.
I am using Excel 2007 and I would like to move one tab to right with "Ctrl+Tab" and move one tab to the left with "Ctrl+Shift+Tab".
Macros will not let me assign "Ctrl+Shift" keys (that I could see). How can I accomplish this?
I am trying to use these exact keys because my mouse is setup so that leaning the scroll wheel left or right moves left or right in my tabbed applications by executing a keyboard shortcut. This works in all my applications except excel where the shortcut keys are different.
I'm working on a VBA program prepared for accounting purpose. In that program i hide the excel ribbon by custom UI and also need to restrict excel's shortcut keys commands to run.
Can i do this with some VBA code.
I would like to create a shortcut to averaging ranges. The ranges vary in size so I want to be able to click on a cell. Press Ctrl + W and automatically average the cells above it. I know how to get the short cuts, I just can't figure out the proper code to be able to average based on different sizes. Let me know if you need a better explanation./

Can I use the Alt key?
I finally found 'Sendkeys' and by having it press {ENTER} I was able to get my data to do what I wanted.
However now I cannot print my page. I tried everything.

Selection.Copy

I can copy/paste other things just fine after the SendKeys but CANNOT PRINT!
I'm creating a small Excel RPG where the player moves the around a blank worksheet with the walls of a maze appearing as you approach them (think dark corridors, you can see only 1 cell in all directions around you).
The players current location is shown by excel setting the activecell to the players location. Currently I have four buttons labeled Up, Down, Left and Right which the player clicks to move in the desired direction.
The testers were frequently missing the four movement buttons and this would put the activecell outside of the maze next to one of the buttons. They'd have to move it back manually.
I would like for the players to move around using the arrow keys to use the activecell, as you would normally move around a sheet... but before each movement there is a procedure that check IF the player can move in the desired direction or not (cell borders used for walls), and then once they've moved there are more procedures to check for monsters treasure chests etc.
How can I make the arrow keys trigger the macros that the Up, Down, Left and Right buttons currently trigger, and not just move the activecell?
I used keypress code in one of forms, after running following command non of my keyboard is working in excel. When I am restarting excel everything is fine. what could be the reason?
View 7 Replies View Relatedwhy my keyboard navigation keys (Tab and arrow keys) quit working after the code below executes? Other keyboard keys like alpha or numeric characters and Enter work but I can't move to another cell without clicking it. Selecting another ws, then returning to the "Master" ws fixes the problem. I tried activating Master near the end of the code but that didn't help. Master is not a protected sheet.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook that when I open it opens a toolbar that was designed for it. I have been asked to make changes to this toolbar. One of the changes is to allow shortcut keys to run these modules. I have tried recording a macro and viewing the code, I tried applying this code there but it does not using the shortcut key. note that this toolbar is only available to this workbook, so these macros are not available to the personal workbook.
View 4 Replies View Relatedwhen we record a macro it gives us a option to assign a shortcut key to that macro how ever that is only in combination of "Ctrl" my question is that is there a way by which we can use any other combination like "Ctrl"+"Shift"+ <key>

I have a macro where I am assigning a variable and the value of the variable is a path where the data is stored. i am trying to assign a shortcut key for macro, i tried to run the macro by going to the vba mode and then click on the F5 function key and the macro run absolutely fine. but when i use the shortcut key the file just opens and just exits the macro.

Can't run vba macro.

How can i add a keyboard shortcut in already saved macro. Is there any way to do it or need to write a new macro?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHowever, I have not been able to find a solution. I created 2 macros that work using the alt+F8 and enter option as well as the run from the macros menu method. Whenever I try to use the keyboard short cut eg. Ctrl+e it will either not do anything or pause and then select every cell. The codes are below:

I have tried multiple letter options and have also tried many macros in a new workbook and I cannot get it to run with the keyboard shortcut.
Could some one amend the VBA below to allow a continous loop on moving to the previous sheet within a workbook. Currently when I move to the first sheet if I use the shortcut key I get a debug error.
View 6 Replies View RelatedIs there any way to define a shortcut for an exisiting macro. The reason for this request is that after a lot of struggle I got a VBA code to work (as a macro)... initially I had created an icon and had linked the same to this macro.... However I feel that defining a short-key would be much more productive.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to replace the keyboard shortcut for the macro dialog box
The standard Alt + F8 is on the right side of the keyboard
I would like somethine of the left side such as Alt + Q
I recorded one that does a very simple task, converts formulas to values. I saved it in my personal workbook, all is well. I noticed that excel names them Module1, Module2 etc. I thought it would be better to name them, so in the properties window next to "name" i changed Module1 to ConvertFormulas.
However, when i go to a worksheet, the keyboard shortcut no longer works. Reverting back to the old name Module1 solves this. Clicking Tools -> Macro -> Macros, selecting ConvertFormulas and then Options and modifying the shortcut.
I'm trying to assign a shortcut to a macro I wrote in VB. However, when I go to Tools->Macros->Macros, none of my macros (whether coded in VB or recorded) have the "Options..." button enabled, so I can't assign the macro. This happens whether I use Excel 2003 or Excel 2007. The file is not readonly and I have tried the various levels of macro security. I have VBA installed.
View 5 Replies View Relatedmy excel sheet runs through a lot of calculations, opens Flowmaster, a simulations program, passes on data, receivs data and so on. Is there any way to have a user input to stop the whole simulation. During the first tries I had a lot of break point in my debugger.

I have 2 computers (work & home)
The work computer works fine ... when i use same files on home computer some alt key features wont work?
Example Alt E S T .... (paste special formats)
Any ideas .... I've looked at sharing / protection ... cant find anything to fix it....
It cant be protection because the paste special formats works fine with a mouse or the new 2007 Alt key commands?

Is it possible to create a script that will allow mimic the keypress of a keyboard?
For example, if I press the windows key and R, windows will bring up the run box and then I can type in C:Windows and press enter and it will open C:Windows.
Is it possible to have Excel do this?
This would mean I create a macro that has keypresses programmed in so I can run a command prompt and enter some details there then copy the data and paste it into Excel.
I scratched this macro to autosort on more than three keys on a cell change...but is not working:
Dim rng As Range
' Set Target Range, i.e. Range("A1, B2, C3"), or Range("A1:B3")
Set rng = Target.Parent.Range("A2:V1500")
' Only look at single cell changes
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
' Only look at that range
If Intersect(Target, rng) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
' Action if Condition(s) are met
' Do your thing here
rng.Sort Key1:=Range("G2"), Order1:=xlAscending, Key2:=Range("F2") _
, Order2:=xlAscending, Key3:=Range("E2"), Order3:=xlAscending, Key4:=Range("C2"), Order4:=xlAscending, Key5:=Range("B2")
, Order5:=xlAscending, Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlGuess, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:= _
False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, DataOption1:=xlSortNormal, DataOption2 _
:=xlSortNormal, DataOption3:=xlSortNormal, DataOption4:=xlSortNormal, DataOption5:=xlSortNormal
End Sub
The error goes to Key 4 saying itīs a compilation error, argument with name doesnīt founded.
Does anyone know of any way at all to trap a function key while a userform is being shown, or will I need API for that?
