Screen Update Statement Is Executed Without An Error
Feb 5, 2009
I ran into a screen update problem in a project I was working on and couldn't find a solution, so I wrote some test code in a new workbook as follows;
Sub Flkr()
'-------------------------
'Screen update test
'-------------------------
'Select sheet1
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
'Disable screen update
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
'Select sheet2
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
'display message
MsgBox "Why is the %&$@ screen updating?", vbCritical, "??????"
End Sub
Seems simple enough,eh?
When I step through this code the first statement works(sheet1 is selected)
The next statement is executed without an error, so I assume it works
The next statement sheet2 is selected, and the screen updates!
i was wondering if there is a way to display a pop up message that a stating that the spreadsheet is currently updating.
What i have is a macro running on Auto_Open when workbook is opened. I have switch off the screen updating. What i want now is for maybe to have a pop up stating the spreadsheet is updating. Setting screen updating to false means that my excel freezes for a few seconds. I think users might be thinking that excel has crashed and therefore would like to include the message that the spreadsheet is updating its information.
I have a formula, that is return a #Value! error for the blank cell that are referred to in the formula. How do I get rid of the #Value! error when I fill down? The formula works great.
I'm working on a spreadsheet that i have a long if statement and it keeps till me i have a error. I stated reading and come to find out you can only have 7 statement.
I am getting the Run-time error '380'. Could not set the value propery. Invalid property value.
I have a user form for data entry purpose which is working fine. Now, I am making a code for data editing purpose which pulls out data from the worksheet into the user form.
I am able to do this for text boxes and combo boxes that are not linked with each other. However I am getting a problem in the following case; I have a combo box and a text box that are linked to each other by combo box _change code which is below which may be the reason for the error I am getting for the next code...
Code: Private Sub cmbColor_Change() If cmbColor.Value = "Other" Then lblColor.Visible = True
I have some code which formats a worksheet based on user selections in a form. The code works, except when the user has made the same selections in two multi-select list boxes. I need to find a way to determine whether the code has already formatted the worksheet.
To me, it seems that there might be two ways to do this, 1) have a test on the original block of code that checks whether this portion of the code has already executed for this variable or 2) check the worksheet for the string (the code formats the same string each time but adds the variable for the current iteration of the loop only if Year1 = True.) The problem is that I only want to format the column if it hasn't already been formatted for that selection.
If CostShare = True Then For Each ctrl In UserForm2.Controls If TypeName(ctrl) = " ComboBox" And ctrl.Visible = True Then If ctrl.Value = "Cost-Share" Then t = ctrl.Tag For Each ctrl2 In UserForm2.Controls If TypeName(ctrl2) = "ListBox" Then If ctrl2.Tag = t Then With ctrl2 For ii = 0 To .ListCount - 1...............................
I'm trying to identify the Active Cell for the formula that is executing.
Currently, using VBA, if the last manually clicked active cell (where the cursor resides) is different than the cell containing the executing formula I get the wrong cell, row, or column using ActiveCell.
Basically, if B36 is yes, use If Statement B, otherwise IF Statement A. If I write Yes, I get a "Value" error, if I change the yes to 1, I get a FALSE error.
experienced coder (not VBA) and I'm having trouble with a simple statement. No idea why it was working before and moving it to it's own Sub screwed it all up.
Sub InitialMessage() On Error GoTo BadEntry SiteTotal = InputBox("Enter the number of approved sites *Must be an Integer > 0*")
BadEntry: Entry = "Bad" Msg = "An error occurred!" & vbNewLine Msg = Msg & "Make sure you enter a valid value in all the prompted Message Boxes" MsgBox Msg
My question is: I have a macro created for my Excel. I have a short cut key to run this macro. When i run the macro, the VB editor is opened where i have written the code. My requirement is, I don't want the VB editor to be opened when i run the macro. I want the macro to be executed but the VB editor should not be visible to the user.
I have a macro which output depence on the variable input. Input is represented by drop-down list. Before, I was choosing input from drop-down, then pressing the button my macro was running. Now, I'm thinking to if it's possible to exclude a spare operation from button pressing, just by clicking from drop-down.
My drop-down list is created through "Data->Validation->List box"
I got two worksheets visible for user to enter information with vba codes behind the sheets(i.e. Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range). Most cells of the worksheets are protected if the vba is executed. However, it was found that if user chooses not to run the macro when prompted, the worksheet can be edited whatever user want. So, how can the worksheet whole worksheet is protected if macro is not run?
I have just encountered a very peculiar problem when using Scrollbar_Change Event for Controls Scrollbar (in a worksheet). I have tree scrollbars and assigned Event code for each one: ScrollBar1_Change, ScrollBar2_Change and ScrollBar3_Change.
Events works perfectly when I click on the arrows to adjust the scrollbar. What is strage however, event is not executed when I adjust the scrollbar itself (pulling the bar with a mouse) if I try it first time after adjusting another scrollbar. In such situation Scrollbar is adjusted on the screen, even linked cell is changed, but the Change Event is not executed. But when the same scrollbar is adjusted second time Change event is executed. To sum up: Scrollbar_Change event is not executed when adjusting the scrollbar with the mouse the first time after "switching" from one scrollbar to another, but is works perfectly in any other situation. It has nothing to do with the code istelf. I get this effect when I create a new workbookm add 3 scrollbars and a code like:
Private Sub ScrollBar1_Change() MsgBox "ScrollBar1 changed!" End Sub
Private Sub ScrollBar2_Change() MsgBox "ScrollBar2 changed!" End Sub
Private Sub ScrollBar3_Change() MsgBox "ScrollBar3 changed!" End Sub
What may be the cause of this selective "disobedience"? Note also, that I get this error on Excel 2000 (not tested it on Excel XP or 2003).
I am running a macro which filters a column to show only records with "#N/A" (ie an error), and copies these to another worksheet. As I am aiming for no errors, there will be occasions when there is no filtered data.
My problem is that, unless I use something like xlCellTypeVisible, when there is no data shown it still copies and pastes all the hidden records. And if I do use it when no filtered data, I currently get an error "No cells were found".
I have tried many iterations of code correction and i think i'm currently blinded by staring at it so long!
My current if statement reads as follows:
[Code] .....
I think I might need to use some sort of On Error Resume Next statement, but I have never used these before. When I tried adding that before the If statement, it just ignored the criteria and tried copying hidden rows - the exact opposite of what I want.
I'd like something that said, if this condition = error, skip over entire if statement and carry on with rest of the sub.
I have a Userform which has 2 textboxes. User enter his employee id on textbox1 then enters a valid break time code which are 1,2 and 3 on textbox2. If User typed 1 then first breaktime start time will be pasted on the worksheet. When User returns after break he then enters his employee id again and then type 1 to end his first breaktime, the end time will be pasted on the worksheet. My program works fine however, I am trying to place a code which will prompt the user to end his first break time before entering another valid break code. Kindly check my code below as I am receiving an error message. 'Run-time error 9' Subscript out of range. This thing is driving me nuts. Any advise or can you tweak my coding vba experts.
Run-time error '-2147467259 (80004005)': An unexpected token ""20*"" was found following "1' AND PERIOD = LIKE*. Expected tokens may include: "". SQLSTATE=42601 code died at RS.Open SQL, CN ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Sub GET_OSI Dim sn as String, osi as string, saposi As String
I get an application defined or object defined error at the select statement 1004...I know I know I shouldn't be selecting in code so I'll fix that but why can't I set the range?
I'm just looking to prevent users from using the print screen or the alt print screen buttons on the keyboard. I have this script that works if I use "39" (Right Arrow)but wont work if I use "42" (Print Screen Button).
I am getting this error and where th If not starts its is in red showing that is where the issue is:
HTML Code:
Sub RemoveRows() Dim LR As Long, i As Long Dim ws As Worksheet Set ws = Worksheets("100 Airports") LR = Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row For i = LR To 10 Step -1
I have some code below. I have error handling in place for when it tries to open a specific file. If it isn't there then user has option to continue and ignore this file, or browse and select a new one.
The problem is, when the user wants to ignore the file, the "Resume Next" continues to run the VBA assuming the file was ok i.e. the code after the line to open the file. What I would like is for it to skip the succeeding code and go to look for the next file.
Below is the VBA:
Code: For i = 0 To 2 Step 1
'add in error handling for if the file is missing On Error GoTo MissingFile Workbooks.Open Filename:="\hbeu.adroot.hsbcdfsrootgb002hfcfinance01fnce" & qfolder & "Data" & qfile(i), UpdateLinks:=False, ReadOnly:=True
[Code] .........
Missing File:
qMissingPrompt = "There was an error opening data file. Click OK to browse or Cancel to ignore and move to next file" qAns = MsgBox(qMissingPrompt, vbOKCancel) 'click cancel - ignore error and move onto the next file If qAns = vbCancel Then
[Code] .......
So, where it says Resume Next, currently it will start running the following (after On Error Goto 0)
Code: Set datawb = ActiveWorkbook
range("A2").Select Do Until ActiveCell.Value = "" etc.
What I would like it to do is go back to is to go to the next i
Code: For i = 0 To 2 Step 1
Or even to go to the 'Next' statement at the end so that it moves onto the Next i and tries to open the next file.
