I need to add a function to a worksheet that shows the name of the previous person who used the document.
I know about the Function GetUserName, but obviously this just shows the username of the person who has just opened the document. Is there anyway that we show the previous user????
I need either a formula or VBA code to display the user ID with which the user is logged on to the computer where the Workbook is opened.
Is there a way to get that with Excel?
I have a workbook with multiple worksheets, and I am trying to create a title sheet where a user can select their name from a drop down list, and Excel will show only the tabs that are associated with that user. For example:
The worksheets in the workbook are:
Heading
Control sheet
Client Relations Admin
Sales Summary
etc...
The user Hudnall needs to see the sheets:
Client Relations
Sales Summary
The user Ferguson needs to see the sheets:
Sales Summary
Control Sheet
I want the user to be able to select their name from a drop down list on seperate sheet, and have the Macro show only the sheets that they need to see.
it is possible to add a mouse over event to this Macro so that when a user runs the mouse over the bitmap picture that this macro is assigned to it would show the value in TextBox7 for the record with the specified TextBox1 Value.
For example for the below Macro it would show the Value of TextBox7 for the record that matches "103" in TextBox1
I have searched the Forum as well as a few different VBA books and can not find much on Mouse Over events
Sub crkt_id_103()
Load frmMain
frmMain.TextBox1 = "103"
frmMain.Show
End Sub
Is it possible to show a timer on a worksheet as a user inputs to it? I can get the timer to appear, using Application .OnTime Now() + TimeValue ("00:00:01"), "AutoRecalcWorkbook", but it's kind of modal -- that is, the user can't input at the same time it's running.

I'm using a series of user forms for data entry to a workbook, some of them open next stage user form on completion (OK cmd button).
All that is working fine, but I'd like the initial form to close on showing the next one. I've tried adding Unload and Hide commands following the frmInsertEntry.Show (Next stage form), to no avail, but I'd like this user form to close or hide at the end of the sub.
Private Sub cmdContinueType_Click()
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Records").Activate 'Select starting cell in record sheet
Range("N3").Select
Do
If IsEmpty(ActiveCell) = False Then ' Search for next empty cell
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
End If
Loop Until IsEmpty(ActiveCell) = True
If optDrillType = True Then
frmDrillEntry.Show
Else
frmInsertEntry.Show

I have an excel file with multiple sheets. I want my HR team to update that file, but one user shouldnt see the entries of other users. I want to make a consolidated file out of three files. This excel template is for salary input.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a user form that has a combo box "City" two text boxes one called "Flight" and the other "Date". What I'm trying to do is to prevent the user from saving the data input from the user form if any of those three fields is left blank. The code that I have so far checks all of the required fields, if any are left blank a message notifys which field(s) is left blank and return the focus back to that field. But the rest of code also fires.
What I really need is either to stop the code if any fields are blank and return the focus back to the blank field, the user completes the field(s) and clicks the save again, or better yet, pause the code until all the required fields are completed and then complete the save. (There is actually another 200+ lines of code in this sub, but I deleted it to keep the post a little shorter.)
find attached zip file . if you open the file then you can understand the problem.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook that is used to track overtime hours worked through the year. I've received some help from users on this forum, and others, to create the necessary macros and formulas to allow a supervisor to make use of the form; however, the workbook is also used to track those that wish to volunteer to work overtime each weekend. The sheet has a list of names for the employees on each shift, then a column to allow a "Y" to be placed under the date - designating them as a volunteer for any overtime available. I've found this spreadsheet (attached - from this site) that will allow individual users to access the workbook and have unique passwords for each. I don't completely understand how it works, but I feel it may be a start to getting what I want.
Essentially, once the user selects their name and inputs their password, I'd like the workbook to be opened and then allow them to only manipulate the row associated with their name. That row will change from week to week, so specific numbers will not be able to be used, but their name will be the same as the name used in the logon.
I feel like I'm asking for a lot here, so just some initial guidance on whether this type of thing is possible would be an acceptable answer.
I have an excel 2003 sheet that collects data from Infopath forms. The forms are to record students who have broken school rules, when, where, repercussions etc. One column shows their class and there is a separate column for each rule broken.
I want to create another sheet to show each class down the rows and the columns to show each school rule. Therefore, each cell would show the number of each particular rule broken for each particular class. I have tried to do countif and sumproduct (if on sheet 1, column B the class is KA and on sheet 1, column M, the rule is bullying = how many times this has occurred).
I have a column of data held in column B.
I am required to show the following.
If there is data in the cell then it is to be left. If there is no data in the cell then I would like to show the value 0.
I have tried using a circular reference, using the formula =IF(ISBLANK(B1),0,B1) and other similar formulas but they dont work as the formula overwrites the data in it.
do I need a macro?, or conditional formatting?
I have a spreadsheet with the following headings:

A - should be created automatically (ie last claim number + 1)
B - user enters manually

E - date is the date the information is entered

Is it possible to get this information with VBA code, too?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have 2 different formulas that I need changed in a similar way.
The first formula is for cell AV11:
=SUM(BI11,BP11,BW11,CD11,CK11,CR11,CY11,DF11,DM11,DT11,EA11)+10
Every cell starts off blank.
What I need is for cell AV11 to always start off blank until data is entered into one of the other cells. The problem is that since the sum always needs to be +10 only when data is entered in the other cells, I don't know how to keep 10 from showing in cell AV11 when no data is typed in the other cells.
The other formula is for cell CO39:
=(CU8)+3
I pretty much need the same thing. If no data is entered in cell CU8, then I do not want cell CO39 to show the 3.

I am trying to integrate an optimization model to a simulation model using VBA in Excel. I am using ShellandWait and calling some batch files to call scripts for application command line operation. Everything ran fine until I tried to read in additional data using modules from an Excel add-in that I customized (err, more like butchered actually). Now, as far as I can tell sporadically (the call to the new module occurs randomly), Excel just closes in the middle of the simulation. Are there certain types of errors that behave this way? Is there someway to view or create an error log or similar, that I can go over after the crash?
*Edit*
I actually solved the problem (it was a database timer expiration initiated in a fortran routine by the customized add-in). This was just pure dumb luck - in effect, I was trying the brute force approach and happened to hit the solution relatively early. If anyone knows of some method of logging Excel or VBA activity (I guess that is the right term)
Is there a way to put a time stamp with the users name into an adjacent cell when a cell is updated?
In case that didn’t make sense I will tell you what I need this for. We are creating new time cards that require both employee and manager approval on them. We have many remote employees and getting their signature can be a pain. If they could click a button on the time card that stamped their name and time that would be ideal. They would then send to their manager they would click to verify the time and it would stamp it as well.
I have a user that is having problems with AutoSum updating after a cell is deleted. He has the following...
100
200
100
400
If he deletes one of the cells, (lets say 200), the autosum number stays at 400. I reinstalled his MS Office and it worked for a few days, but now he is having the same problem.
So now he has...
100
100
400
I have designed a spreadsheet in the office where I work, and think it would be quite flashy (gimiky) if I could have the spreadsheet show the name of the user logged on.
At the minute if I try and access a sheet currently open by another user it will come up with the standard message 'workbook1.xls is currently in use by xxxxx' then you open a read only copy until they have finished.
I was thinking there must be some way of importing this information to excel to display something like 'welcome (xxxxxxxx)(user currently logged on)'
The other part of my problem is that the excel sheet will only display the network uername of the user, but I have seen spreadsheets that cross reference this to the Microsoft Outlook global address list on the MS Exchange server, and display the users actual name.
In a nutshell, I just want to know is there anyway the excel spreadsheet can display the username currently logged into the shared spreadsheet.
