Api Instead Sendkeys
May 17, 2009this is the code i'm using but sometimes it runs sometimes it runs incorrectly; i've been told that sendkeys is not a good choice and i should use API but i'm just studying VB6 and i do not know what is API; so i need a code to copy and paste in a module this is the code with sendkeys that i need insterad with API

SendKeys No Working
Jan 4, 2010Once the intended chain of actions is performed, normally EXCEL would go on to display the contextual menu, (which is its standard right-click action when no macros are involved).
Since I don’t want my macro operation to end with that menu covering part of my screen, I have the macro ‘type’ in ESCAPE, through one of these lines:
Syntax For SendKeys
Jan 10, 2010A theoretical question following an empiric result.
For the command “SendKeys”, for instance, take these two lines:
Sendkeys Not Working
Dec 19, 2006I'm trying to access one of my custom menus through a macro.
The keyboard commands are
alt, n, f
and
alt, n, g
I have these lines of
Range("A31").Select
SendKeys "%nf", True
SendKeys "%ng", True
All this seems to do is put the letters f and g in cell A31!
Use Of Sendkeys In Excel With ALT Key
Dec 17, 2008I am trying to use a macro to automate the use of alt key.
my code looks like this-->
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
For i = 0 To 10
Range("A" & i).Value = ActiveSheet.SendKeys("%" & i)
Next i
End Sub
This code is to enter the value of ALT+1...ALT+10 to column A
SendKeys To Run Macro
Oct 5, 2007I am using SendKeys in a VBA script to activiate 2 Add-In functions when a worksheet is activated. The code I am using is:
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Application.SendKeys "%GR"
Application.SendKeys "%GH"
End Sub
Whilst this code works fine as is I would like to provide the user with some progress information either with a message box or via the status bar. The first command refreshes data from an external source and the second hides unwanted rows and columns. I do not have access to modify these add-in functions.
I have tried:
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Application.StatusBar = "Refreshing data in progress ..."
Application.SendKeys "%GR"
Application.StatusBar = "Hiding rows and columns in progress ..."
Application.SendKeys "%GH"
Application.StatusBar = False
End Sub
However, the system does not wait for the sendkeys commands to complete before changing the status bar message so it flashes them on and can hardly be seen
I would also like to turn screen refresh off to speed up the process time however the Application. ScreenUpdating function appears to be ignored.
Sendkeys By Cell Value
Jun 12, 2008Ive put together some code that sendkey values to another app. I'm having trouble now looping throught a worksheet and sending the keys of each cell.
For example ill used range a1:c4 I like to have a loop that moves to a1 and takes the value and sendkeys then b1 sendkey value.
VBA: Using SendKeys To Print The Screen
Mar 13, 2008I would like to emulate hitting the Alt+Ctrl+"Print Screen" button on the keyboard with the following code. I know there are some restrictions around using the PrintScreen with the SendKeys, but I'm hoping I can still figure out how to make this work.
Following is the first part of a larger macro I've set up. If I can just get this to work, that would be perfect.
Sub PrintTheScreen()
Application.SendKeys "^%" & "PRTSC"
End Sub
Ribbon Disables Sendkeys
Sep 28, 2009Sub ExcelOptionDialogSendkeys()
Application.SendKeys "{ESC 5}%TO"
End Sub
But if you happen to want to assign it to a Ribbon button click...
Sub rxExcelOptionsDialog(control As IRibbonControl)
Application.SendKeys "{ESC 5}%TO"
End Sub
the sendkeys method just doesn't seem to work under any circumstance.
SendKeys In Windows Vista
May 31, 2008I used to run a macro on Win XP - where in I open a Web browser and then Send keystroke to Open new ones - Which was working fine. But now when i use the same macro in Vista it gives me a "Error - 70 : Permission Denied" @ sendkeys.
Option Explicit
Public myIE As Object
Sub OpenIE()
Set myIE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
myIE.Navigate "www.ozgrid.com"
myIE.Visible = True
Application.Wait (Now + TimeSerial(0, 0, 5))
SendKeys "^N" ' to Open New Window
End Sub
What i require now is I need to Open IE - 7 - Which i am able to do and then open several Tabs with different URL's
Using Sendkeys And Loop To Download Files
Jul 7, 2012I have created some code that directs me to a web page, and i use send keys to navigate my way to the input field. In this input field I am trying to put a cell value in a range use send keys to download the file, and the repeat the process for the next cell.
Here is my code so far, it does everything right up until pasting the copied cell into the input section of the web page - the issue is it is pasting nothing
VB:
Shell "C:Program FilesMozilla Firefoxfirefox.exe " & "https://website.com", vbMaximizedFocus
Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("00:00:05")
SendKeys "{TAB}"
' Input username
[Code] .....
Application.SendKeys Stopped Working
Aug 17, 2007I have a simple macro that from Outlook Express sends emails, with the last code line to mimic ALT+S on the keyboard to send the message
Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:02"))
Application.SendKeys "%s"
Yesterday I needed to install some new software that required at the end reinstalling of Microsoft Redistributable 2005. Not sure if for that reason but now the last line (the SendKeys) is not sending the email automatically anymore. What happens is:
-the email message windows pops up but is not being sent unless i do it manually (if i get rid of the two seconds pause ahead of that)
-have a VB error message that takes me before the SendKeys line (if I keep the two secs wait ahead of that)
It looks to me that either:
-the pc is not active anymore on the email message therefore the SendKeys doesnt work
-somehow the instruction finds the "door" shut by something else
-worse of all, the software has messed up with those send keys commands (tried to reinstall it but to no avail)
Sendkeys To Insert Code Into Codepane In VBE
Apr 23, 2009I need to use sendkeys to insert code into codepane in VBE.
I use sendkeys "MyFunction()", but the "()" doesn't show up just "MyFunction"
I use sendkeys "MyFunction" & chr(40) & chr(41), still only get "MyFunction"
Print Macro W. Application.SendKeys
Jan 9, 2008I was looking at Colo's website for the Application.SendKeys method, http://puremis.net/excel/code/039.shtml ,so that I can speed up a page/print setup macro that I have.
I was partially successful in setting this up, but I did notice that there was no argument number in that method for setting up the "Fit to x Pages Wide" and "y Pages tall".... I really need that functionality....
I saw something here that is supposed to get the zoomfactor : http://groups.google.com/group/micro...8d0?scoring=d& but I can't seem to incorporate it into my code so that it works.
Is there an Argument I can set up to get those?
Here is my code so far:
Sub ElecECNPrint()
Application.SendKeys "{ENTER}", False
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPageSetup).Show _
Arg1:="", _
Arg2:="", _
Arg3:=0.25, _
Arg4:=0.2, _
Arg5:=0.42, _
Arg6:=0.39, _
Arg11:=xlPortrait, _
Arg12:=xlPaperLetter, _
Arg13:=79, _
Arg17:=600
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, Collate:=True
End Sub
I want to change Arg13:=79 to Arg13:= Zoomfactor, but I just ain't cutting it as each page is a different size and I am running this from Personal.xls ....
SendKeys Function - Copying Data From Range
Jul 22, 2014I'm trying to use the SendKeys function to copy data from a range using a button.
I realise this is not the most elegant of ways to acheive the result, but there are a number of factors involved.
The range is laced with code.
Sendkeys Macro Will Not Start With Keyboard Shortcut
Aug 18, 2014However, I have not been able to find a solution. I created 2 macros that work using the alt+F8 and enter option as well as the run from the macros menu method. Whenever I try to use the keyboard short cut eg. Ctrl+e it will either not do anything or pause and then select every cell. The codes are below:
Sub Macro5()
'
' Macro5 Macro
'
[Code]....
I have tried multiple letter options and have also tried many macros in a new workbook and I cannot get it to run with the keyboard shortcut.
Sendkeys Doesn't Work On My Laptop With Vista
Jan 25, 2010I have a workbook that I transfer back and forth from my desktop to my laptop, that uses Sendkeys to add code to the active pane in VBA. It doesn't work on my laptop, but works fine on my desktop.
Both computers have Vista. Is there a switch somewhere to make Sendkeys work?
Excel 2010 :: VLookup Will Not Match Unless Use Sendkeys F2
Sep 24, 2013We have a business system which has some very disjointed reporting. To fix this I have multiple extracts that are then combined into a single report. I then add Year & Period from a lookup of a date in a particular field. Unfortunately most values are returned as #N/A but if I manually go into the sheet and select an offending cell and click then magically the formula then corrects itself.
So I thought I would be clever and use Sendkeys {F2} as part of my code. Unfortunately this is a bit hit & miss as it works on some but not on others. Also the Sendkeys piece repeats itself leaving my frontsheet a 1000 rows from the start. This is easily fixed by selecting cell A1as the last step.
My question is there methods in VBA by not using sendkeys that will achieve the same result and is consistent. I am using Excel 2010.
Code:
Sub Add_Calendar()
Dim cell As Object, c As Range
'setup for calendar data population
' Range("H1") = "Created Date"
Range("N1") = "Year"
Range("O1") = "Period"
'copy the format

Dec 6, 2012I'm copy and pasting many formulas from different worksheets. After pasting, I'm trying to go into each of the cell references and update it to the new worksheet. For example, let's say the cell has a reference to another cell of: ='Worksheet 1'!xx:xx I want change about 50 cells like that at once to ='Worksheet 2'!xx:xx However, every time I pick the Replace feature, either one at a time, or all at once, it opens the Open file dialog box. I've confirmed that it definitely "Finds" everything correctly....it just happens every time on the "Replace".

Find Last Col In Open-ended Table, Then Sum
Sep 22, 2008I have a worksheet called Sales that could contain any number of columns of data. On another worksheet, I would like to find the last two columns and use a formula like:
Sumif('Sales'!C:C, c5, 'Sales'!D:D). (I have Excel 2007 so D:D is good)
The problem is how to change the C:C and D:D part to be the last columns.
I'm looking for something simple like this:

Dec 7, 2006The following code is supposed to open a workbook, find txtVinput.value and put todays date (now()) in column C.
it doesn't generate any errors, but it doesn't add the date either. I'd post the file, but its just over the limit and I don't want to get into trouble (50K)
The whole prog is a userform that the operator enters a receipt number and it posts to another workbook, with the date. The operator also has the option to insert a date when the paperwork is returned. This is the part that is causing me trouble.

On Click Method To Open The Find Facility
Nov 9, 2008I was wondering if possible i could use an on_click method to open the find facility in excel. I know it may be easier to use the Edit, Find or Ctrl+F way.
But i have people using excel with no past experience what so ever, and i would like to make it as easy as possible....i.e a click of a button that says "Search".

VBA Macro To Find Specific File & Open
Nov 16, 2008I've got a VBA macro set up in one Master excel file that manipulates a number of other files. Both the Master and the other files are all in a folder which is currently called C:Documents and SettingsusernameDesktopPipeline and my VBA script has this defined as the filepath and works exactly as I need it to. I will be moving the folder "Pipeline" to a shared drive on my server so my staff can access it, and will be sending it to colleagues who will be installing it on their own servers so they and their staff can use it. Is there a way to amend the code so that the VBA in the Master file looks in the folder in which it is locate, "Pipeline", no matter what the filepath leading to the "Pipeline" folder is?
