How Do I Use VBA Timer Subroutines To Start And Stop Random Number Generator
Oct 6, 2008As you can see below, I've written code that writes random numbers into three columns of a spreadsheet (10 numbers in each column).
What I want to do is create code that will run the random number generator for a period of 1 minute and then stop. I know that I will need to write a timer subroutine to do this but I'm how unsure how to do this.
Start/Stop Timer For Hours Worked To Include Break Time
Oct 15, 2007I have a timesheet where user updates start and end time for various tasks.
I have placed a time capture button in the excel sheet (which is simply a macro saying =now() function)
The user clicks it before starting and after finishing the task. The start and end times are captured in adjacent cells.
If the user starts the work, and goes on a lunch break say for 20 min, comes back finishes the task and captures end time, the time difference will not consider break time which is non productive.
How can I incorporate something like 'pause' option so that before he goes for lunch he can temporarily pause the time.
Form Or ActiveX Button To Stop / Start Code Temporarily?

Filter Auto-update As Opposed To Hitting Reapply Button Each Time?
May 29, 2013If I am using the "filter" function in Excel and some of the values in my list change such that the filtering criteria requires certain rows to be add/removed. Is there a way to have this filter automatically update as opposed to hitting the "reapply" button each time?
View 1 Replies View RelatedStart Timer When Cell Is Selected?
Jan 28, 2013I am trying to write a simple macro that would start a timer (in hh:mm:ss format) when the cell is selected. In other words, if I have the following:
Row Col B Col C
1 00:00:00 (form btn)
2 00:00:00 (form btn)
3 00:00:00 (form btn)
I would like to select B1 to start a timer and C1 (button) to stop the timer for that row.
I was given code from another IT guy but the problem with this code is that I have to write multiple macros by just switching out the cell number (in this example = [C4] )
I would like to have the macro use the selected cell as input parameter in the line that reads Set count = [C4].

CD = Now + TimeValue("00:00:01")

Excel 2007 :: Start Timer After Workbook Open For Certain Amount Of Time
Dec 28, 2013I have the following code below for a timer in a userform. Right now it is configured to start when a button is clicked. I would like to have it automatically start the timer after the workbook is open for more than 5 minutes but so far have been unable to get it to do so. I have tried putting the code in the workbook module but it still won't run. It also has a button to reset the timer if they need more time in the workbook and also a button for them to save and close the workbook if they are finished. I'm running Excel 2007.
VB:
Private Sub CBReset_Click()
Dim T, E, M As Double, S As Double
T = Timer
Do
E = CDbl(Time) * 24 * 60 * 60 - T 'elapsed time in secs
M = AllowedTime - 1 - Int(E / 60)
S = 59 - Round((E / 60 - Int(E / 60)) * 60, 0)

Stop Timer Macro From Overwriting Data In All Active Worksheets
Feb 17, 2014I have a worksheet that has macro events attached to command buttons. When a ‘Start’ command button is clicked, a timer begins counting in seconds and displays the value in cell B3 until a ‘Stop’ command button is clicked. The event works flawlessly as long as I don’t open up another workbook (to continue working in Excel).
When the second workbook is open…then time stops working in the workbook where the macro was created…and starts displaying the ‘timer count in seconds’ in the new active workbook--which overwrites/destroys the data in the newly opened workbook. When I go back to the original book that called the macro…it continues counting again.
I need this timer to continue running in the workbook with the command buttons (in the background) while I work on other worksheets in other books. Is there a way to keep the timer running no matter how many other workbooks are opened and prevent it from overwriting whatever sheet is active? This code in the Increment Sub below ‘overwrites’ the contents of cell B3 on whatever sheet is active---and stops the timer in the on the sheet with the ‘Start’ command button.

Stop Macro: Button To Hit Or Better Just Some Keys To Hit To Stop It Without Using The Ctrl+alt+del Which Closes Everything
Dec 13, 2006my excel sheet runs through a lot of calculations, opens Flowmaster, a simulations program, passes on data, receivs data and so on. Is there any way to have a user input to stop the whole simulation. During the first tries I had a lot of break point in my debugger. But now I want to have a button to hit or better just some keys to hit to stop it without using the ctrl+alt+del which closes everything.

Jun 2, 2014The only change I made was to change the "Sheet1" to "Journal" to match the worksheet name in my workbook.
As you close and reopen the workbook, the timer should start with =NOW() in A1 (formatted as "HH:MM:SS") and count up with the current time until you close the workbook.
I use Excel 2010, could that be the problem, that I copied a VBA code for an older version of Excel???

Stop Update / Don't Update Requestor Message
Oct 27, 2008I have some VB code which sequentially opens over 200 workbooks to extract data from each and populate another workbook. These workbooks do have links to other workbooks in them.
For some reason when some of these workbooks are opened I get a requestor window asking whether I want to Update or Don't Update the data. I always want to Update the workbook and believe this can be done in VB by hiding the requestor?
Button Used For Capturing Time (Timer)
Feb 8, 2009When reading a water meter in a large apartment building a meter reader can also click a timer (LAP) button as the meter passes preset intervals. The worksheet would record the "lap times" in separate cells which could then be compared and usage figures can be calculated, allowing the meter reader to know if there is currently a Leak or other problem before leaving the premesis.
In the attached worksheet you can see what I would like the meter reader enters the reading - the light green "Interval List" is created from that reading. The Meter reader then watches the meter clicking the LAP button each time the interval is passed, the current time is then stored to the Pink cells (Similar to the NOW() function), the times are then calculated in other cells like I did in the Blue column in this case showing elapsed time.
I have tried several ways to do this using NOW, but each time all the cells are updated to NOW not just the current cell - and the Single Button woulod be really nice so the meter reader didn't have to look away from the meter.

Mar 19, 2014I have a program that requires the last 8 days to be total, unless there are 2 days off in a row. So my cells need to sum the previous 8, but then stop when two zeros show in the column and then restart following. One zero should continue to total the previous 8 days. As shown below, for 1/10/14 I should see 57.5. The sum needs to restart on 1/13/14 to show a total of 10.5. I have tried multiple formulas with no luck.

Start And Stop Timestamp
Jul 17, 2009I've seen a lot of timestamp solutions but none of them fit my needs. Also my VBE skills are not good enough to create this. So here's the problem:
I've got 3 columns E,F en H. H contains a validation list with 3 options OK, NOK and OPEN.
If H is NOK I would like E and F to be blank. If H is OPEN I would like E to contain a start date wich doesn't update. If H is OK I would like F to contain an end date wich doesn't update.

Make 2 Buttons - One Says START, One Says STOP
Sep 21, 2009I have a spreadsheet that has
worksheet_calculate and also worksheet_changes, its a combination of the 2...
and it's purpose is to make a record of the number every time it changes by populating it into the next row, so I end up having a very long data list
and what happens is that my spreadsheet has real-time data coming into one cell which makes it constantly changing....
needless to say, when my spreadsheet is opened, it starts to do it immediately...and it wont stop as long as the number keeps on changing.
I would like to make 2 buttons - one says START, one says STOP
and when I click on START, then it will start making record of this number and when I click STOP, then it stops recording the changes of this number.
Identify Distinct Start Stop Times?
Aug 21, 2014I am attempting to create a datasheet to track the actual time an agent takes a break or lunch. Here is an example of the data that I am using.
name Date Lunch Sch Brk1 Sch Brk 2 Actual Time
BrandonHolt8/19/201411:10 8:30 1:20 8:24:20 Break
BrandonHolt8/19/201411:10 8:30 1:20 11:42:34 Break
BrandonHolt8/19/201411:10 8:30 1:20 12:57:46 Lunch
Because I have two break times, possibility of more depending on the agent, how do i create a formula that will look at this data, take the schedule time for say break one and only apply that against the time that is more in line with the closest actual time?

Stop Update Message When Printing From Macro

Show (copy) Data At X Time And Stop Update?
Sep 2, 2012I have two sheets. In the first sheet, I have cell F4 is 00:00:00 (countdown). G9, G10 and G11 are cells that receive data (decimal numbers) live. In the second sheet, I have three cells linked from shhet1 G9 ='Sheet1'!G9, G10 ='Sheet1'!G10, G11 ='Sheet1'!G11 (which update themselve when data is modified in the first sheet). Now I want to set in sheet 2, (assume) cells B9, B10 and B11 to show me (copy) the values from G9, G10 and G11 from sheet 1 when the countdown was 00:00:05 (5 seconds before Start) and not update again if the data changes in the cell it pulled the data from.
Like G9 ='Sheet1'!G9 at 00:00:05 and stop here, do not update anything. OK?
I can do a part, but the real problem is: I can not make it stop cells to update.Stand frozen, freeze, not move, calm .. however. I do not want to seem pretentious (but my knowledge in excel are limited), the most appropriate would be a formula, not macro or VBA, if possible..
