Learning VB6 by trial and error from code snippits on the web, however, am embarrassed to say I can't solve this simple one:
Trying to Open an Excel sheet and read it from VB6 code written in another Excel file.
I have a worksheet with checkboxes in each cell in A11:A110 as well as O11:O110. When a checked, the current time appears in the corresponding cell, using this code for example, A11 :
Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
*
*** Range("A11").Select
*** ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=NOW()"
*** Range("A11").Select
*** Selection.Copy
*** Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:= _
******* False, Transpose:=False
*** Range("A11").Select
*** Application.CutCopyMode = False
End Sub
This system is used to track time elapsed. Example, the first event of the day begins, so I click the checkbox in A11 and the time appears in A11. When the event ends, I click the checkbox in O11 and the time appears in O11.
Now what I would like to modify is the following:
After clicking A11, if 30 minutes have elapsed and I still have not checked the end time in O11, I would like the whole row to highlight in red, a pop up message box should advise me that 30 minutes have elapsed. I could click OK and remove the message box. The whole row remains in red highlight until I finally check the checkbox in O11.
Obviously I'd copy the code for each row.
I assume the code goes with the checkbox's code for A11? Also, is it possible for a cell to flash? (highlighted white, then red, then white, red, etc...)
I am writing a code that has a sheet change event linked to call on a number of macros. The vba works fine until I change another cell and it activates the same macro.
VB:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range
Select Case Range(BI47)
Case "1"
[Code]....
I have tried if statements and everything else I can find, most will not work, others report errors. The code and macros will be the same on many sheets but work independently and BI27 is the source of the change
I have the VB Editor open and am manually activating different workbooks in Excel (with 20/25 modules each), the VB Editor goes through a process of maximising each and every module in the workbook I have selected before I can edit any code or, indeed, do anything in the workbook. This process takes about 8-10 seconds every time I select a different workbook in excel! I have played around with the settings "Full Module View" in the options section of the VB editor, but to no effect.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have written a Excel (2003) that searches a worksheet for a string in any cell. If the string is not found, it uses the 'On Error GoTo' command to jump to a given label. It works fine on the first string not found. When it searches for the next non-existent string, it fails with:
'Run-time error '91':
Object variable or With block variable not set'
Do I have to clear a buffer after each cells.find search?

I'm not sure why this is happening, but every other time I run this one specific macro, I get a "Run-time error '1004': Paste method of Worksheet class failed". I even tried running this macro, then running a different one, then running this again, but I still got the error every other time.
Every time I get the error, it highlights this line of
Sheets("Regenerate Request").Paste
This is all of the code up to where I get the error:
Sub YesRegen()
' after user has hit Yes on the RegenerateRequest macro, this posts the new request to
' the log, generates the new file and attaches it to an email
Application.Run "LogUnprotect"
Range(Range("A" & ActiveCell.Row), Range("K" & ActiveCell.Row)).Copy
'Selection.Copy
Sheets("Regenerate Request").Activate
Application.Run "RegenFormUnprotect"
Range("A40:K40").Select
Range("A40").Activate
Sheets("Regenerate Request").Paste
I have a relatively complex report that I work with and a worksheet is no longer required. I have deleted the worksheet and reference to it hwoever when running the macro to pull all the data, it gets to the summary of all the data and i get the Run Time Error 1004 Application-defined or object-defined error pop up. ON reviewing it, it is on this line ActiveCell.Offset(0, 0).Range("a1:a" & Range_Height).Select of the below code...
VB:
Sub GetRangeName()
Sheets("TOTAL").Select

use code tags around code. Posting code without them makes your code hard to read and difficult to be copied for testing. Highlight your code and click the # at the top of your post window.
I have a simple function below to put in different forumlas in different cells to get stock quotes. When I run this I get runtime error 1004 application-defined or object-defined error. The first formula goes through but vba chokes on the next formula: ActiveCell.Offset(I - 1, 4).Formula = username

View 4 Replies View RelatedFor some reason my form won't open when the workbook is opened. I get an error message "run time error '424' object required" (which happens when I have Form1.show in the BOTH workbook_open event and the userform_initialize event (oops)). When I removed form1.show from the userform_initialize I don't get an error but I also get no form. I recall having this issue before but I can't recall how to fix it.
Can I call the userform_initialize event from the workbook open event to get around this successfully and properly?
I keep getting a Run Time Error 1004 (Application Defined or Object Defined Error) when my sub reaches this line:
ActiveCell.Formula = "=SUM(D222,D224,D226,D227,D229,...)"
In the actual line of code the "..." above is another 20-30 or so cells in column "D". Probably no more than 150-170 characters in the line.
If I remove half of the cell range names it works, but I need all of the cell ranges for the equation.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have the following code in a macro and when it is run I get a Run Time Error 438 Object doesn't support this property or method. This occurs at the first occurrance of the destination/source.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have the main form completed and everything appears to be in order. So I made a button on the first sheet that simply calls for the main form to be shown. However, every time I click it, I get the run time error 424 object needed thing. I don't understand because the button is calling the form and the names are all correct. When I click debug, it takes me to the small code for the start button. Below are the codes for the start button and the main form.

I'm gathering and ordering data. It's in the biotech field so I have to work with a lot of reaction formulae and compound abbreviations. Alas those are not standardized. So I have gathered all the compounds used by different organisms and standardized their abberviations and I want to replace the abbreviations used in the reaction formulae of the organisms with the standardized abbreviations so I can compare the formula with each other.
This resulted in a list of formulae, and a list of 2 columns, 1 the old abbreviations and the other the new abbreviations. I wrote a macro to pick an abbreviation out of the old abbr column and find it in the formula list. Then the old abbreviation should be replaced with the new abbreviation.
I got it working but the problem is that some abbreviations are longer than others and thus the smaller ones may resemble letter combinations in the larger ones. This can easily be solved by sorting the abbreviation list so that the largest abbreviations are on top and will be checked first. However, after I did this the macro didn't function any more. I have no clue what to do.

why my code fails at the point labelled (Run-Time 91 error). From reading the help I think it has something to do with using a set statement within a with...end with block, but I'm not sure.

I have devised this code that you see below to take and post data into a tracking spreadsheet. The odd thing is if I run this from the module itself it works fine, but when I try to run it from here:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave (ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Run "PostToTSRS"
I get an error: "Object variable or with block not set"
on the line that reads:
Set tsrs = wbs. Sheets("TSR Summary")
WHY?
Sub PostToTSRS()

Dim wbs As Workbook

Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim tsr As Worksheet
Dim lastrow As Long
Dim rng As Range
Dim c1 As Range
Dim rng2 As Range
Set wb = ThisWorkbook

I have this code to know if a workbook is open, and then open if it isn't. This code was running well since this morning. I don't know what I touched to make it not to work.
Public Function IsOpen(FileName) As Boolean
Dim myBook As Workbook
Set myBook = Workbooks(FileName) 'Here is the Run-time error
If myBook Is Nothing Then
IsOpen = False
Else
IsOpen = True

End Function
The Workbook FileName is not open, this code crashed when i tried to test what happens when is not open.ç
Heyyy, I solved it.
I have to put the next line

I have a userform that reads data from a sheet with thousands of records (lines) each record with some 30 cells (columns). I wanted the user to scroll up & down in the sheet, using the keyboard arrows and I wanted the userform to show the relevant record, where the cursor stands. For this purpose I created an event handler (Worksheet_SelectionChange) that identifies the scrolling, populates the form with the relevant record data and then returns the focus back to the sheet. The command I have used to send focus back to the sheet (so the user can keep scrolling) is:
VB:
AppActivate "Microsoft Excel" & " - " & ThisWorkbook.Name
Now comes the bizarre part... This macro can work perfectly for hours and then decide to "die", or can work on one computer but not the other (all with Excel 2007, BTW). When the macro dies (or if it does not work, to begin with), the debugger points to the command I mentioned, with an error message "Run-time error '5' , Invalid procedure all or argument."
how to make my macro "stable" (make it work always and on every computer)?
Unfortunately, I cannot upload the file, because it contains confidential data (and it is not in English...).
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
lr = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
If Target.Column < 2 And Target.Row > 1 And Target.Row <= lr Then

I have a sheet that will force user to enable macro before revealing the sheets and enabling them to key in data. But because I need to protect the workbook from user deleting sheets and also having some locked cells. I got the run-time error 1004 unable to set visual property of worksheet class
