I have a spreadsheet with a graphic in the right side of a particular cell. I'd like to write code to reposition the graphic if the user changes the column width.
Is there an event I can use to put my code in? I see no "Column Resize" event.
Is it possible to have different size cells in a single column. For column A I would like to have a width of 30 up to row 20 and then after row 20 I would like a width of 15.

Need a bit of help with a dynamic column resize.
This is the scene. Imagine 2 lists of data, each list 2 columns wide (like 2 lists of names and phone numbers). List 1 covers column A and B, List 2 covers column D and E. I want it so that on the push of a button, columns A-E are automatically resized to be just big enough for their longest content, and column C resizes so that column D is on the next page.
The general idea is that you can print the sheet, and put together the pages relating to the seperate lists.
I have a long list of data: a unique number identifier that needs to be grouped with text. Right now they are in two separate columns. I would like to have two large columns on a page, as if you were looking through a phone book. I have been trying to get this list to load into a finite number of rows before it breaks into another column on the same page. Then moves to the next page, so about 30 rows that are set 8 rows down on a page to account for company letter head.
I haven't paired the text and numbers together at all. But I haven't been able to find a way to have them move in a way that maintains their correspondence. I have gotten my numbers to move into the row column set I have wanted but not the text.
[LETTERHEAD] {1-7 rows}
1| Shims 31 |Shims 2

Is there a way to write a Worksheet_SelectionChange (ByVal Target As Range) event in module after creating a sheet in VBA? I constantly delete a sheet, then repopulate it with a new one that is empty, but I need to add some code that happens if they should change a particular cell. It worked when I ran it on a worksheet without refreshing, but as soon as I cleared and repopulated the sheet, it was gone. Is there a way to preserve this?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have some code which enables new comments to be added when a user double clicks a cell, but I want to restrict this to a specific range B5:B125. How do I change the code to reflect this, and add the current Date to new comments added. Here is the first section of the code which sets the range etc...
Option Explicit
Public oldRange As Range
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
On Error Resume Next
Dim rng As Range
Set rng = Target(1, 1)
oldRange.Comment.Visible = False
With rng
If Not .Comment Is Nothing Then
If .Comment.Visible = False Then
.Comment.Visible = True
Else
.Comment.Visible = False
End If
End If
End With
Set oldRange = Target(1, 1)
End Sub....
If possible, I'd like to be able to catch & handle the event of a User deleting a row (or potentially a column) from a specific Worksheet so I can then implement some automated "housekeeping processing" on other existing rows / columns.
I'm using XL 2010 so from what I've found so far it looks like I should possibly be using the Worksheet_Change() function, but beyond that I'm currently stuck.
I have the following code, which works perfectly:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim TotalDays As Integer
TotalDays = Range("C65536").End(xlUp).Row + 1
The code points to the next blank cell so the user can input a value. Each time the user enters a value I want to re-run the code so that the colour of the cell changes.
However I also want to perform various calculations on the sheet. However this means the sheet is being changed and so continually repeats my code.
How do I add the following, to my previous code?
Range("E8").Value = Cells(7, 6) * 2.5
looking to only allow a check ("x") in a column for a reconcile - type worksheet. Am I close?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
'Data protection. Only allow "x" in the "cleared" column. If anything else is entered, a message box informs the user
'and the cell contents are cleared.
Dim val As Variant
Dim msg As String
If ActiveCell.Value "x" Then
msg = "You can only enter an X in the cleared column."
ActiveCell.ClearContents
End If
End Sub
Looking for the syntax that will allow me to code an event sub routine, based off the event of a specific function e.g. findnum being run.

I'm looking for a way to use VBA to set the window size upon opening the workbook. When the document opens, there should be two windows, each taking up half the screen and each on a particular tab.
Currently, if I save the workbook with the window settings I want, when I open it, both windows are maximized. When I hit the restore button, they go back the settings with which they were saved, which is what I want it to look like as soon as it's opened. Also, a bonus would be for the code to determine the screen size, so it can fill the screen no matter what monitor/computer it's opened on.
I am having some problems with some charts that are being created via VBA.
If I create the chart at 1600 x 1200 screen resolution at 100% zoom then my chart is fine but if I am at a different level of zoom or a different screen resolution the code for position the top and left and width and height of the plot area does not work as expected.
I have the outside of the chart set at 600 wide by 600 tall and no matter what resolution i'm in it seems that it always stays this way. I just seems the plot area and the legend move around.
I am working on a Listview. Every time I open the file, the ListView doesn't appear to be of the same size I intend it to be. Although I kept the size of the ListView big enough to show all my data, the ListView still goes back to much smaller size.
I have a workbook which has a file size much bigger than I would expect. To test it I inserted one blank worksheet and deleted everything else. I have removed a macro that was embedded in the workbook. I have removed all protection etc. I would now expect the file to be similar to a new workbook (circa 13k) but it is still 782kb even though there is absolutely nothing in it.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI built a workbook that is used by our account team to summarize account status. Each worksheet has several cells that use conditional formatting to call attention to the status reported in that cell. Each manager sends their worksheets to a Senior manager who then consolidates into a single workbook containing approximately 50 worksheets. Once consolidated, the file size has grown to over 12 Mb and this needs to be reduced to a more manageable number, preferable 4 Mb or less. Prior to buliding the new version of this workbook, the file size was less than 2 Mb.
I have removed the Macros and believe the size is due to the conditional formatting in each worksheet.
Once the worksheets are compiled, is there a way to remove the conditional formatting and save the existing format - Similar to a "Paste Values" function? The senior manager does not need to change cell value to the formatting of the worksheet he receives could be saved.
To be specific - one cell turns has no color if the value is 10 or less, is yellow if 11 - 15, and Red if 16+. Once sent to the manager, the variance in this cell is not needed; he only needs to see the color associated with the value when sent. Next week he will receive an updated worksheet and a new value will be entered. The conditional formatting is only needed by the individual preparing the original worksheet.
Somehow my tab names (in 2003) have a very small font size. How do I return the size to normal?

I have my Excel set up for a default font size of 12 point.
I often download CSV data to insert into spreadsheets. It opens in a new spreadsheet, and it's properly displayed in 12 point size. When i copy and paste it into the ultimate target spreadsheet (which is also set to 12 point size) the pasted data shows up as 10-point and I have to change the font size back to 12-point every time.
Why is this happening and how can I avoid that re-sizing that occurs?
I had a data sheet that used about 20,000 rows, down to AF20000 or so. I deleted about 16,000 rows and now want to reduce the size of the worksheet so that when I hit Control+Shift+End, it takes me only to AF4000, not to AF20000. Can this be done without replicating into a new worksheet?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am creating a statistics database for my personal use. I have been developing this for many, many months now, and I have learned a lot about Excel and its capabilities in the process. However, I am becoming concerned because my files occasionally crash Excel, and I am wondering whether this is because my files are getting too large. Typically, the crashes occur when the main file is calculating (but not always). It stops responding, and I have to force the files closed through Windows Task Manager.
Without getting into the specifics of how the files work (although we can do that if it is necessary), here are the names of the files and their current sizes:
Baseball Database.xlsx -- ~28 MB
Baseball Reports.xlsx -- ~5 MB
Statistics.xlsx -- ~4 MB
I will have all three of these files open simultaneously when I am working on them, and my laptop has 4G of RAM. I do not have much (if any) extraneous formatting in the files -- I know how to remove that -- but there is quite a bit of conditional formatting in the files that I want to maintain. I am considering partitioning (separating) the tabs in the Database file into separate files.
I am faced with the task of reducing the size of a group of userforms because of screen size limitations.Some of the forms are quite complex and I am wondering if it is possible to select the form and all its contents and reduce it proportionately. It is possible to do this with the form frame but I have not found a way to include the controls.

This probably sounds really weird, but does anyone know whether the size of the text in Cell A1 on Sheet 1 can be linked to the size of the text in Cell B2 on Sheet 2? Like, when I change the size of Cell A1's text, is there a way to have the size of Cell B2's text change as well?

I have very busy workbook that has hovered around a megabyte in size. I added a simple userform and a couple more graph series (I now have 35 ), and the file jumped to over 6MB in size.
I checked every woorksheet, cannot find anything to account for ANY growth, let alone a factof 5 or 6.
I have seen a worksheet/workbook in the past that only contains (for example) Columns A:H and Rows 1:150. The rest of the columns and rows do not show. Unfortunately I cannot find the example I was looking at and I cannot find any information on how to achieve it.
