Run Macro From Custom Defined Workbook

Jun 12, 2014

How can I have a custom defined workbook run a particular macro?

I'm using the Run Application Method:

Application.Run("'Workbook.xls'!Macro")

However the workbook.xls field is static as my program loops through a folder containing various workbooks, opening these workbooks, and running a specific macro housed in their specific module.

Dim MyFile as Object
MyFile = Dir("C:Test")
While MyFile ""

Workbooks.open Filename:="C:Test" & MyFile
Application.Run("'Workbook.xls'!Macro")
MyFile = Dir

How can I define the current active workbook in the run method? Using the custom 'MyFile' in place of the workbook does not work.

Is there a call module method available?

Show Custom Error Message If Opening Workbook Macro Code Fails

May 17, 2008

I cannot figure out how to get my error handler to work, or actually, not work. It seems to work fine when there is an error, but the code still gets read even when there was not an error. Basically, I am trying to open a file, which may or may not be there. When it is not there I want a message to pop up informing the user. However, when the file is there and it opens, the error handler still gives the message box. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Private Sub btnOK_Click()
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Dim LCSfile As String
LCSfile = frmSelectFile.Listbox1.Value
On Error Goto ErrHandler
Workbooks.Open Filename:=sPath & sDate & "" & LCSfile & "QUANT.CSV"
ErrHandler:
MsgBox ("File is not quantitated. Please select another file.")
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub

Locate A Max From Range Defined In Other Sheet In Workbook

Jun 10, 2008

in my workbook i have 3 sheets named "time" "final" "push". in the sheet thats named "final" ihave in cells B2 and C2 2 values that correspond to a type interval (lets say 75-378) in the sheet "time" each row represents 1 sec, starting at one.

what i would like to do is locate the interval defined by the 2 values on "final" sheet
and find the min max and value in column S of the "time" sheet.

i.e if B2 and c2 said 78 and 378 it would go on "time" sheet select the range of S78-S378 and find the mean, the max and the average and report them in sheet "final" in cells E2 F2 G2 respectively What would be optimal is that there was a way to perhaps loop so that it can do the same thing with the range defined by the values in B3 and C3.

Sep 24, 2008

There was an article in ozgrid new about excel custom toolbars (<<hover over). The article addressed making the custom menu option available in one workbook with Private Sub Worksheet modules as follows

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls _
("My Menu").Enabled = True
End Sub

Private Sub Worksheet_Deactivate()
Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls _
("My Menu").Enabled = False
End Sub

How do you get the first module to run apon opening the workbook and the second module to run when you close the workbook.

Use Custom Default Workbook

Oct 3, 2006

I have default settings for new workbooks and worksheets including,
zoom=86/Arial 8/, 0.00/ etc.

I set these up using the .xlt file for templates and they work correctly.

However, when I create a new window under the "Window" menu item, it opens the new window with different (Excel Default?) settings.

Can this new window be made to open with my user-defined settings?

Object Defined Error When Code In Workbook Open Event

Sep 7, 2007

I have a macro that checks if a username is in a particular list, and if it is, it unhides certain sheets in the workbook.

The code runs fine if I just run it as a macro or off a command button, but I am trying to execute it when the workbook opens and I keep getting a 57121, Application defined or object defined error.

The code is below;

Private Sub Workbook_Open()

DoEvents

Dim Res1 As VbMsgBoxResult
Dim GovRng As Range

For Each GovRng In Sheets("Map").Range("GovernanceMembers")
If GovRng.Value = Application.UserName Then Goto 111
Next GovRng

Attaching A Custom Toolbar To Workbook

Apr 14, 2009

I have created a workbook and made a custom toolbar to perform the macro functions for the sheets in the workbook. Everything works great for me, but I want to attach the custom toolbar to the workbook so that whenever someone else pulls up the workbook they pull up the custom toolbar too.

I used the tools menu, clicked customize, toolbars, attach, selected the custom toolbar and clicked copy.

No toolbar appears.

I can select View, Toolbars, and select the custom toolbar, then the toolbar appears, but when I close the sheet the toolbar remains.

When someone else opens the sheet, the toolbar appears without any "buttons." It is an empty toolbar.

The help text isn't helping because the instructions for attaching a custom toolbar to a worksheet (tools/customize/toolbars/attach/copy) do not attach the toolbar to the workbook.

Add Custom Menus To Single Workbook Only

Apr 3, 2008

Using example code from Adding Custom Menus, I now have functional menu items that call my macros appropriately. The example also contains code to add or remove a menu conditional on its window being active. What I need is a slight variant on this but not quite obvious to my novice brain.

The add and remove menu code is now stored in my personal.xls file. However, I need that the condition check that a key string be present in the name of the active window, not the file where the macro is stored.

Thus, if the front window is of the file named MyData, then the special menus get added (the conditional string is "MyData"). If the window is named YourData, the special menus get removed. Note, neither of these two files contain any macros.

Delete Rows That Contain Data From User Defined Dynamic List Within Workbook

Oct 7, 2012

I have a financial dataset which I need to "clean" before manipulating/analysing.

Each row of the data represents a completed transaction and the first step is to delete rows that are done with particular (internal) clients; the client data (the client's name) is in Column D.

Currently, I delete the unwanted data by autofilter and delete (code below), however this means the clients to be deleted are only defined within the code. I would prefer to have a worksheet within the workbook where the user defines the clients by adding or subtracting their name from a list.

I have created a dynamic range for the client list by inserting a Named variable along the lines of "=OFFSET(!$B$3,1,0,COUNTA($B$3:$B$200)-1," which works fine.

However how do I work this list into my code so that it works when new clients are added or deleted?

Current code for deleting unwanted client data:

Sub filterdelete()

Dim LastRow As Long
LastRow = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count

With Range(Range("D1"), Range("D" & LastRow))

[Code] .....

Creating New Workbook Then Giving It A Custom Filename?

May 25, 2012

I am building a macro and am just not figuring out how to do this. I am trying to create a new workbook, then give it a name. Simple right? Well, I have the format for the file name to be "mm-dd-yy Transmittal #.xlsx" but I can't figure out how to make the # part of that equation start as 1 but if the file already exists change it to 2, if that exists, change it to 3, and so on. Here's what I have so far:

Code:
Sub Transmittal()
Dim NewBook As Workbook
Dim MyPath As String

[Code]....

I don't think I'm allowed to do "x + 1" so that is probably where my problem is coming from.

Custom Toolbars Visible In A Specific Workbook

Dec 30, 2008

I created 3 custom toolbars. I want toolbar A to be visible only in Workbook A.xls, toolbar B to be visible only in Workbook B.xls and toolbar C to be visible only in Workbook C.xls. while Workbooks A,B, and C are open at the same time. I use Workbook A to automatically open Workbooks B and C.

Problem: Since I'm openning the Workbooks automatically it only keeps the Toolbar C visible on all Woksheets.

I included the following code in the This Workbook Object on each Workbook:

For Workbook A:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()

Application.CommandBars("A").Visible = True
Application.CommandBars("B").Visible = False
Application.CommandBars("C").Visible = False

End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)

Application.CommandBars("A").Visible = False
Application.CommandBars("B").Visible = False
Application.CommandBars("C").Visible = False..............................

Trying to convert an Excel 2003 macro to work in Excel 2007.

The problem line is

Is this the one it needs? It is called something else in 2007?

The ones I do have ticked are

Set Bold To Font On Another Worksheet: Application Defined Or Object Defined Error

Aug 25, 2006

'Code1
Call movedata(1, rrow, ecol, erow)
'Contact Person
Call movedata(26, rrow, ecol, erow)
Worksheets("new").Activate
Worksheets("new"). Range(Cells(erow, ecol), Cells(erow, (ecol - 2))).Font.Bold = True
'Name
Call movedata(2, rrow, ecol, erow)
'Street Address
Call movedata(3, rrow, ecol, erow)
'city
Call movedata(4, rrow, ecol, erow)
' zip
Call movedata(5, rrow, ecol, erow)
Worksheets("new").Range(Cells(erow, ecol)).Font.Bold = True
' speed dial
Call movedata(6, rrow, ecol, erow)

the first time font.bold is set to true, it completes w/o error. The bolded line returns 'application defined or object defined error 1004'. Ive tried activating the new sheet immediately before setting bold (like the first time it gets set) but it still errors.

Application-Defined Or Object-Defined Error Setting Validation Message

Nov 10, 2006

I have problems with setting Validation input title and message. When in column "C" I type product code, data validation of corresponding cell in column "D" changes to list of diameters allowed for that product. That works fine. But i also want to set validation message to show allowed diameters.I set it in VBA using named ranges.
But for every second line (13, 15, etc on attached file) I get an application-defined or object-defined error. The rest (14, 16 etc) works ok.
