If I want to set a global variable when I open my workbook which will be used in code on the individual spreadsheets, how would I do this? I want to set the time the workbook is opened to a variable (constant) and then compare that time to current time on each calculation in the worksheets.
I'm using Excel 2000.
I have a UserForm that runs when my excel project starts that prompts the user for two pieces of data: a username and a password (these are not for logging into the file itself, I need to use them to call web queries later). I want the UserForm to store both of these data in global variables, so that macros that are run in the future can refer to them and read their values. Unfortunately, I am very new to VBA and I cannot figure out what code I need and where exactly I need to put it. Here is my current code, where "authentication" is the name of the UserForm object, and the textboxes I use for entry are named "user" and "pass": In "This Workbook"
View 4 Replies View Relatedi have a variable that will be the same in every module within a workbook. i have tried playing with Global, Public, Conts, etc. but get compile errors.
essentially this is what i want... i just want to set the dte globally so i dont have to set it in each module.
Code:
Global dte As Date
If Weekday(Now()) = vbSunday Then
dte = Date - 2
Else
dte = Date - 1
End If
The first goes through a directory and opens all the files.. after it opens a given file it goes off into a sub-routine to process the data in that file.
I am trying to create a counter in the first sub-routine and then pass that value into the second sub-routine to tell it to put the values out on the next row down.. so the first time through it puts the values out on row 1, next time it puts them out on row 2, etc.
I would like have a input box in which a user enter a number and then I would like to be able to use that number in other worksheets within the same workbook. How do I declare the variable for use with other sheets. I know I would first use
Dim intRows As Interger
But now how do I make it global.
explain the difference between declaring a variable as global or as public. Aren't they both available to the entire project including forms?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a smattering of experience within various programming languages, but am still coming to terms with the basics of VBA. I am trying to declare a global variable, assign it a value, then use that global variable. Within 'ThisWorkbook' I have the following...
Public myText As String
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
myText = "Hi There"
End Sub
...and in the Microsoft Worksheet Object Sheet1 (Sheet1) I have...
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
MsgBox myText
End Sub
Now, my understanding of this code is that upon opening the workbook, myText variable will be declared, and then assigned the value "Hi There". Then, once I have clicked anywhere on Sheet1, a message box will appear stating "Hi There". Problem is, the message box is blank. This is all fine, except I want the message box to state "Hi There". What am I doing wrong? Is the variable declared (publically) correctly? Am I assigning the public variable the value correctly?
Am I referencing the public variable correctly in the Worksheet_SelectionChange procedure correctly?
I maked a userform who use global parameters (to let the user decide where write things) and later i need to use this parameter in a module (who is the main program). I try to resolve this problem put this global parameters like global parameters in the module and later in the both sides (in the module and in the useform), but it can't work. How i can resolve that?, i.e., How i can use a global parameter in a userform and the same global parameter in the modulo with the same data?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am working on a workbook which uses a large number of variables. I am trying to keep them as "local" as possible to keep it simple. Some of my variables are local to the subs they're used in. Some are global as they're used by subs in several sheets. A third type of variable is used by several subs all belonging to the same sheet. Is there a way of declaring them so they're known by all subs in that sheet, but not by every sub in the workbook?

I need to declare a global variable in Application level not Module level.
I have declare a variable in Module1 and then Module2 with same name then complile it and get success. That means there has two variable with same name in different Module. I think this was not a proper global variable declaration by which I can allow to declare only one variable in all Module, Class every where. I have used code as below -
How can one change the cell values of a worksheet by creating a setup page in another worksheet. Example: the worksheet value is =average(E7, F7, G7, AQ7)*0.6 -- which this formula makes 60% of the average. On the setup page or worksheet I want o change value of *0.6 to say *0.5 for all the cell that has this value. In other words form the setup all the values will change on the related worksheet from the setup page.

I am working on a macro for excel which has a userform where the user puts in the number of samples they have, then takes them to a new userform to input the weights of the samples. I want to be able to set the sample mass variable dynamically based on the number of samples they have…
i.e.
spl1
spl2
spl3

.
splx
x=number of samples
This number will be different each time so I am stumped at how to do this since I have just started in vba and do not know too much yet.
I am attempting to set a variable as a range of data that sits on a non-activated worksheet. However, I am getting a runtime error of 13 (data mismatch).

I am simply trying to define the variable aWB as a workbook, whose name is found in cell B6 on the worksheet named "Start" in the workbook named "DW1". This seems to make sense to me, but I am not typing it correctly.
Code:
Dim aWB As Workbook
Set aWB = Workbooks("DW1.xlsm").Worksheets("Start").Cells("B6").Value
I'm having trouble setting the Range "UtilizationRange" using a variable, "CurrentRange" to store that range. I get the error "Run-Time error 1004: Method 'Range' of object'_Global' failed".The rest of my code works when I set the utilization range using the actual range for my purposes, but the problem is the range will change each month and I don't want to change it manually each time. There's a cell in the excel sheet this refers to (AG3) that holds the range value, which in this case is [N7:N75], and I would just like to return that value to the variable "CurrentRange" and set UtilizationRange equal to that.
The value is returned to CurrentRange, but it's the last line that's giving me the problem.
Sub RangeTest()Dim UtilizationRange As Range, Cell As RangeDim CurrentRange As String
CurrentRange = Range("AG3").Value MsgBox (CurrentRange)
'This returns the value [N7:N75], which is what I want
Set UtilizationRange = Range("CurrentRange")End Sub

The user is asked for one piece of information "Enter the ID Number.
What the macro should do then is go to Wks1 find the ID Number and change some cells as a result. This bit works.
Set Wks2 = Worksheets(strWks)
7 rows from the bottom.
My intention was to capture the the name of another worksheet which is held on the same row as the ID Number on Wks1 and call it strWks.
Then further down the macro set the value of Wks2 to that of strWks so that the macro will then go to that sheet and remove data from the row with the same ID Number.
I get a Time Run Error 9.

I have some code to plot a column chart of data but it isn't working as expecting at the moment. The code is below. The variable binCounter is a count of how many cells in a range that I want to plot on the chart.
However, what I am finding is that the first couple of cells in the range appear as the series name with the rest appearing as the data in the chart. Secondly, the chart appears with the axis labels 1,2,3 etc when I have some custom ones I would prefer to use. How do I go about setting this property, as I can only find options on setting the axis title There is a lot of stuff on XY charts on Google but I can't find much on column charts unfortunately .
VB:
'activate sheet and chart
Worksheets("Home Page").Activate
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("Histogram").Activate
'set variables for chart

I need to write a macro to set the print area to the first two columns (A & B), and the last 12 columns (the last column may change). In both cases I need to print all rows (start is row 1, last row is variable). I am trying to achieve something like the "Freeze Pane" effect with the printer. The first two rows contain column headers (dates). The first two columns contain information that needs to be included on the printout, whilst the last 12 columns contain the most recent data.
Various cells withing the selected ranges may be blank, but no row or column will be entirely blank.
We have a very long macro that at the end sends an email to each training coordinator. Within the body of the email, we want to autopopulate the completion status from a pivot table using getpivotdata.
We first try to set the variable but get an error: [compile error:invalid qualifier].
Sheets(Summary).Select
Dim BDCompletion As String
BDCompletion = Application.PivotTableSelection.GetPivotData(A3, "Business Dev Plan Found")
And this is how we plan to incorporate the variable into the body of the email:
With OutMail
.To = "name@company.com"
.CC = ""
.BCC = ""
.Subject = CurrentSheet.Name & " Training Plan Status as of " & Format(Now, "dd-mmm-yy")
.Body = "BD is " & BDCompletion & " complete for 2007 Training Plans as of the date of this email."
.Attachments.Add Destwb.FullName
'You can add other files also like this
'.Attachments.Add ("C: est.txt")
.Send 'or use .Display
End With
I am trying to count the occurences of combinations within a range defined by contiguous cell values in one column. My problem lies with setting the value of variables that are queried within the defined range. My macro should;
1)Set ComboValue1 & ComboValue2 values to A1 & B1 cells values respectively
2)define range to be searched by how many contiguous values there are in column D
3)search column E for 2 figure combination (defined by A1 & B1). If present increment counter by 1 and add to column C (to be visible in worksheet). If no match carry on
4)define new range by next set of contiguous values in column C
5) step 3
6)when all possible contiguous ranges defined and searched from column c, perform again on next combination down columns A & B with refreshed occurence counter
7)finish when all combinations are searched for
Sub CountComboOccurence()
Dim ListCounter As String
Dim ProgCounter As String
Dim Counter As Integer
Dim ComboValue1 As String
Dim ComboValue2 As String
Dim Rng As Range
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
