Run Macro B4 Prt But Only If A Particular Wsheet Is Active, Etc


Can't seem to get started with this one. I've got a workbook with several worksheets. I want a macro to run BeforePrint but only if both these conditions are true:

Wsheet "BEN SHEET" is active
Value of A1 on BEN SHEET = value of B2 on BEN SHEET

If both true, I want MsgBox with question asking "XXX ?". If Yes, print, if no, no action.

How To Run Macro From Active Sheet
I have written the below macro to copy data from a sheet called "Fixit Example 1" to a sheet called "Fixit Summary Example". It works fine, but I'd like to be able to run it from any "Fixit Example XX" worksheet. As written, the data is always copied from "Fixit Example 1" regardless of what worksheet I have open.

I tried replacing Windows("Fixit Example 1.xls").Activate with Windows(Active.Worksheet).Activate but got an error "Run time error 424. Object required."

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

.HorizontalAlignment = xlCenter
.VerticalAlignment = xlCenter
.WrapText = False

Macro To Refresh All Active Cells
writing a macro that will refresh all the active cells in my "Master" worksheet.

Every month, I append data from one Excel worksheet to the end of my Master worksheet. I want all the cells in the Master worksheet to be formatted as text. However when I copy the cells, I get different formats, i.e. text, general, number, etc. Simply selecting the new data and applying the text format from the Format Cells popup, does not work. I know I need to "re-enter" all the data for the new format to take effect but I really don't want to F2-> Enter thousands of cells.

Worksheet Change Macro Takes Too Much Time When Run With Update List Macro
I have a worksheet in which I have a worksheet_change macro. This worksheet_change macro makes sure that a few cells will keep their colors, even if the user copies and pastes a new value to that cell. This worksheet_change macro runs each time there is a change on the worksheet. Now my problem is that on the same sheet I have an update list macro which updates around 20.000 rows and two columns (which is alltogether around 40.000 values) and it takes a while to run. So.. it takes a loooooooooot of time (too much) when these two macros both run.

My question is that can I somehow disable the worksheet_change macro while the update list macro runs. I mean something like when I start the update list macro to disable worksheet_change macro and when the update list macro finishes, then reenable worksheet_change macro?

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

Find Method To Search For The Active And Non Active Values

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.

Macro Code Only Works If Specific Worksheet Active

I have some code that works perfectly when it is run from the VB Editor but when I put it behind a command button it gives me an error almost straight away. I have read that when a command button is used the command button defaults the active sheet to the one that it is one therefore you always have to specify the active sheet but I have done this so am still confused as to why it is falling over.

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

Have Macro Determine Which Macro To Run
Here is the scenario. I have a template that other users fill out and I run a macro based on the data that they populate in the template. I have three destinations for this data depending on how a particular cell is coded (validation list box with three choices). Currently I have to determine the how the cell is coded and run the corresponding macro. I would like to have one overall macro that can look at the cell with the coding and determine which of the three macros to run and then execute that macro. I was originally thinking of something like an If/Else statement, but that will only work if there are two options. Is there something else that I could use that will make this work?

How To Run A Macro
I am trying to figure out how to run a macro that will do a few things for me.

1. it needs to compare at least 4 fields of data against one and eliminate the fields that are totally out of whack (i.e., we have units of measures in products that are not consistent, so I want to remove the obvious issues of UoMs and keep the others that seem to be comparing the same type of units of measure).

2. Once it eliminates the bad data, I would like to create another spreadsheet with the good data in it, copying only the data not all the other macros that exist in the spreadsheet.

3. I would like for this macro to then take out the material number of the bad data from the appropriate worksheet(s),

4. what I would like to be left with is a clean sheet of data that is comparing apples to apples not apples to a crate of apples.
