View 13 Repliesi have a sheet with lots of macros.
for some reason whenever i run this one specific macro the vba editor screen comes up.. there is no errors. dont understand why it keep coming up.
also when i run this specific macro the first time it works really quickly.. and the next time i run it, the code takes a lot longer execute any ideas why?
I have a spreadsheet where sheet("summary").Cells("K4") = sheet("component").Cells("G7").
This is written as a formula, e.g. =SUM('Component'!G7).
I am trying to achieve the same through VBA. I can get the summary cell to copy the others. but it just copies it the once when it is created. How can I make this re-calculate everytime it is changed?
I am attempting to use a cell reference generated using the "address" function and text function (so the cell displays text only, not formula) as a means of defining the top left cell into which I want to paste a column of formulas. The reference cell is static, but the contents is dynamic.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a drop down list made from the Forms toolbar with a list of items: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. I have set it with a linked cell, so when you choose, say 3, from the dropdown, 3 appears in B10.
I was hoping to add a 'Go' button, which would run another macro depending on what is in B10, i.e. so if 3 was chosen, then you press 'Go', Macro3 would be run.
So I have 5 macros called Macro1 - Macro5, and I need some code for the 'Go' button which will run the right macro depending on what number is in cell B10.
I use this to read cell content, add some text/characters (ie. [ and ]) and change the properties of the complete cell
Sub COMMENT()
Worksheets("DVD Lijssie").Activate
If ActiveCell.Value 0 Then ' Change all in to ... ... ...
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = ActiveCell.Value & " " & "]" & " " & "["
With ActiveCell.Font
.Name = "Arial Narrow"
.Size = 8
.ColorIndex = 16
End With
End If
End Sub
HOW can I change this vba-code so it leave's the content of the cell like it is and add some content with the use of let's say TexBox1 and ONLY use different font properties for the newely added content?
I'm trying to create a macro which will edit the content of a cell and update. I'm just using the "Record New Macro" option in tools.
It doesn't seem to perform the F2 edit function within the macro.
I'm sure this has been discussed previously, but I can't get the search function to work for me.
I don't know if I am asking for something impossible,but is it possible to create a MACRO to automatically add or subtract 10 to whatever number is in the cell? for example:
A1= 20
I would like to have a macro that lets you either add 10 to it to become 30 or subtract 10 to it to become 10.
I have a question.
What code do I need to make the data that is in more cells to be shown as data in one cell ?
ex. A5 D5 to be shown as D2(in a new workbook)
1 1 11
And that for every row?
I am having some trouble writing a macro to delete cell content. I know which cells I want to clear, but I can't seem to get the macro to do it.
I also want to have something in the macro that inserts data into the lines that I am trying to clear. I want cell A67 to say "Payment" and cell A71 to say "Total."This is the code I am using:
Sub DeleteCell()
Dim i As Integer
For i = 67 To 71
If Range("A" & i).Value = "--" Then
Range("A" & i).Delete
Next i
End Sub
I was wondering if I could pick up the Field number and the criteria from a cell in excel rather than changing the code in VBA.
Range("A1:K1"). AutoFilter Field:=Range("A1"), Criteria1:=Range("B1")
I was trying this code but I got an error message. Does anyone know if I can pick up these information directly from excel.
I'm only starting to get into the Macro side of excel, and I've created a couple of macros to automatically format cell contents and the like.
However I'm having trouble trying to divide some cell contents by 100.
I have 2 files I'm working with, one contains information regarding cd's and percentages, however the percentages in this file cannot be formatted to percentages (so the powers that be say) for whatever reason.
I copy all this information into another file which does have the percentages formatted as percentages, the result is that the values get multiplied by 100.
So values that read:
100
50
50.25
for example, appear on the new sheet as:
10000%
50000%
5025%
Is it possible to write a macro that will divide these percentages by 100 so the read correctly as:
100%
50%
50.25%
the macro will have to work on selected ranges.
Is it possible to create a macro attached to a button that allows me to save the workbook based on content of 2 cells in the workbook?
I like to save the workbook based on content of cell A4 that contend a text string. After that saving another time with the contend of cell A4 plus cell A9 which contend the today() function. I am doing this because this workbook is constantly updated and a backup copy is done based on the date the file is save.
Formula/macro/etc that would enable me to have content of a cell changed based on the content of another cell in the same row.
Example: cell in column D says "PSA" - so I would need the cell in column H for that same row to read "Radio"
I would need an entire sheet scanned to review for these occurrences and make the appropriate changes. I also would need the formula to be inclusive enough to scan for variations in column D cell content (PSA 1, PSA 2, etc).
Is there a way to make the attached worksheet automatically shade out all the Saturdays & Sundays in any given month everytime you change the Month/Year cell at the top of the worksheet, as example? I've tried using the weekday/Weekend formula, but can't quite get it right.

b4 = my score (which is par)
b5 = par for the hole
For a table like the one below produced for the sake of example (actual is much much bigger) I want to make it list rows that are true for a certain column for a certain variable in the matrix. So for say water terrain, which types of activity can I do i.e. swimming. Or for Offroad the activites which I can't do i.e. Run and Swim.
ActivityWaterRoadOffroad
Jog nym
Run nyn
Walk nyy
Swim ynn
y=yes
n=no
m=maybe
I have a workbook with lots of code to automate several things that I do. It does a great job at doing things I need it to do, but it takes foreeeveeerrr to save the workbook. The code has made the workbook a large file, and it takes a few minutes to save it. Is there a way to skip saving the code everytime you open the workbook. I don't ever need to change to code so I don't need to save it every time.

Sub PrintFix()
Dim c As Range
For Each c In Range("ActivityRange" & Range("C" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row)
If c "" Then c = c & Chr(10)

I want this code to run automattically everytime data is entered into coulmn C from row 9 down thru the named range of "ActivityRange".
This code should apply an "Alt-Enter" into each of those cells following tyhe text in the cell.
I am using VBA to create a word document (.docx). This word document contains plain text content controls as well as picture content controls. I then use VBA to automatically select a picture based on the code below
Code:
Set oCC = Word.ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTitle("TabPic").Item(1)
On Error GoTo TabErrorHandler
oCC.Range.InlineShapes.AddPicture Filename:="X:XFERANDREW-TDCD " & LblVL &
[Code].....
After the document has been closed down I try to open it again and I am told "The file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents."
When I click details it says "Unspecified error" and "Location: Part: /word/document.xml, Line: 2, Column: 0"
If I click ok it says "Word found unreadable content in "". Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you turst the source of this document, click Yes.
Clicking Yes opens the document with all the contents and it is now renamed to Document 1. If I click no it does not open.
how to combine the content of 2 cells into one cell and have the information separated by a comma.
For example:
CELL 1:
Software 1
CELL 2:
Spreadsheet Software
The desired results is:
CELL 3:
Software 1, Spreadsheet Software
i have the following macro when cell value in column "K" changes, it distributes the data accordingly.
however, the issue is, if i change the value in K (which is a date), so another value, it leaves the distribution in tact....i want to apply "clear content" and then make the macro re-apply.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Left(Target.Address, 3) = "$K$" Then
Dim srt As String

I need to make a sort of "to-do" excel in which i have 2 worksheets:
Sheet1 is my "to do list"
Sheet2 is my note list
The idea is having a "note" list in which, day by day, i add new things sequentially and a to do list that shows NOTES entries but in correct order and separated.
what i would like sheet1 does:
simply, when adding a new voice i would like that one of the cells is filled by the date of TODAY but statically, not with the Today() function otherwise it changes. each voice will have a priority number that i put manually.
What i would like sheet2 does:
I would like having on sheet 2 5X filtered lists that shows only certain voices of total entry list on NOTES like:
PRIORITY1: would like that under this tables only entries with priority 1 are shows
PRIORITY2: would like that under this tables only entries with priority 1 are shows
PRIORITY3: would like that under this tables only entries with priority 1 are shows
PRIORITY4: would like that under this tables only entries with priority 1 are shows
PRIORITY5: would like that under this tables only entries with priority 1 are shows
My approach right now was with TABLES and filters... basically what i did is having a NOTE list of 1000 entries.. and having 5x tables with those 1000 entries copied that filters with the priority criteria...
WORKS.. but the file is really slow..
i would have a macro that copy in PRIORITY 1 TABLE only NOTES rows that have priority 1 in their entry.. on PRIORITY 2 TABLE only notes rows that have priority 2..
so this way i should have 5000 active entries for the filtering.
I am having a spot of bother with my spreadsheet, when trying to automate some functionality. Effectively what I am trying to do is...
- With a comprehensive Project Plan press a button that extracts the information of cells that are marked as Critical.
- This information would pull through onto a separate Dashboard sheet, so that those critical items can get flagged to the Project Team.
- The data cannot be copied as a complete table, as there are various columns of data that I do not require copying.
- I have tried recording a macro with me 'filtering' the project plan for critical items and then copying that data across.
- This however only returns the cells originally marked as Critical, it does capture any changes to cells outside of the range in the code.
So,
- In Column C of 'Project Plan' sheet, I have tasks marked as "Critical" or blank.
- I want to copy data of those 'Critical' rows of data, from Columns B,D,F,I
- This data is then to go into the 'Dashboard' sheet, in Columns B,C,E,F.
I embed the code below, from my feeble attempt:

I had to change sheet one but everytime I open this workbook, it keep saying "Application-defined or object-defined error"
but I cannot find what is causing the bug. I have checked the name of sheet and it seem correct for me in the codes.
I want macro to run automaticly when I change values of any of the cell in worksheets("Data").range(B2:F1000)
Is there any way to write macro only for that worksheet/range?
I have a long (190,000) list of customer data, all in Column A (unfortunately with blank rows among it, but working now to fix that).
Down the column, individual customers are bookended by a "adf" and a "/adf". (these have open and close brackets like HTML code, but I cannot reproduce them in this forum).
For each customer, I need to find the rows that begin with (brackets spelled out since I do not know how to show them):
1. [open bracket] vehicle status
2. name part=3D"first"[close bracket]
3. [open bracket]name part=3D"last"[close bracket]
4. [open bracket]email[close bracket]
5.[open bracket]phone time=3D
6.[open bracket] name part=3D
And transpose only those rows it into columns.There is a dynamic number of rows for each customer, so there's no way to simply count and transpose, as the columns would all be mis-entered.Somehow it needs to recognize those 6 row items, and transpose those values only, with the and the only telltale of a start and finish of a specific customer.
EDIT: How about a macro to delete all rows except those that contain those partial values above?
How to determine the correct formula for this requirement?
Assuming I have 2 individual excel files and an index excel file (in reality, there are more than hundreds of file). For index excel, once the user enter part number (eg. 1 or 2), the excel will look for the part number excel file and determine vlookup function.
The only problem I have here is I can not make the index file automatically add the part number shown on most left column into the required formula (replace the part number file section).
I tried use the indirect function but this require each file to be opened, which is not possible for actual use. I am looking for a function that can work in closed worksheet.

I am working on developing QR Codes using some MATLAB code and it would be really convenient if I could create an excel program which changed the background color of a cell containing a 1 to black and a cell containing a 0 to white.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am currently trying to create a spreadsheet whereby if I enter certain text in a cell in Column A on worksheet 1 that correlates with text in a cell in Column A on Worksheet 2, then the description in Column B in Worksheet 2 is entered into Column B on worksheet 1.
For example, if worksheet 2 has the following:
Column A Column B
XXXX PRODUCT 1
YYYY PRODUCT 2
and I enter XXXX in column A on worksheet 1, I want Column B on worksheet 1 to automatically enter PRODUCT 1.
