How do I setup a STARTUP WIZARD in EXCEL which allows user can input information, and these information will be stored in the excel worksheet automatically.
The startup wizard is defined as a window which will pop up automatically when you open the Excel document. The wizard contains forms.
I use Excel 2007 and I have an .xls that I've had set to auto-open at startup and has worked fine for months now. Alll of a sudden a couple days ago it stopped auto-opening, and I have to now manually open the .xls. I looved in the Advanced>At Startup setting and it's set to the correct folder. What other setting in Excel 2007 do I need to check that would be causing this startup problem?

Column 1 is Country
Column 2 is Cost
Column 3 is Category
I have sucessfully used it with several countries but after sucessfully returning the correct resultsa for 5 countries it says "The formula you are building is too long. Please specify fewer conditions" - The amount of conditions is the same as the sum just before it which worked fine!!!
I have the dupe wizard add on, on my excel program. I am wondering why when I click on the Dupe Wizard button a message in a dialog box pops up saying 400. The Dupe Wizard application will not do it's job now, only the dialog box saying 400 pops up.

Is there a way to stop it from automatically converting text to columns when I paste?
I am trying to create a formula in the Conditional Formatting wizard.
I would like the formula to format B2:F2 in a particular way if a count of the number of values in this range equals 5 AND if all values are less than or equal to 25.
I have tried with following formula without success:
=IF(AND(COUNT(B2:F2)=5),COUNTIF(B2:F2,”<=25”)=5),””))
Is there a way to reset the defaults for the text import wizard? I occasionally import a number of files in CSV format, but the wizard defaults to tabs as the means of separating the text. I would like to reset the default on the second page of the wizard to commas, not tabs.

I now would like to get rid of this problem, as well add a standard path to this code, so that I dont always have to start from the desktop and click through tons of folders to get the folder containing my files.

This almost worked, but not quite.
Word and PowerPoint seem to be fine but when I reopened Excel I got a number of messages saying that objects could not be loaded because they were not on the machine. Some of this was because Excel was trying to reference add-ins that needed to be reinstalled. I have done that, and there are now fewer messages - but there are still two and I can't get rid of them. One looks for 'objects' the other a single 'object'. There seems no way of finding out what the objects are in question, and what it that Excel is stumbling over. Can I do anything other than abandoning my previous settings and starting again, or else living with having to click twice every time I start excel to get rid of the messages?
I have tried uninstalling Excel and reinstalling but this doesn't help. Perhaps registry changes are the problem...and I hate the registry.
I am pasting query results from WinSQL into Excel and use 'Paste' and then, from the little Paste Options icon, 'Use Text Import Wizard'. I choose tab delimited and then reset the decimal separater using the 'Advanced' button on step 3. Since I do this daily I would like to create a macro to do it all for me, namely paste what I have already copied to the clipboard using the appropriate settings. Recording doesn't reflect the steps I executed. How can I call the text import wizard from vba with the clipboard contents as input as opposed to a text file?

View 8 Replies View Relatedim building a user registration form in excel
now i realy would like to have a search form within my wizard but
i cant get it done.
i have read some other articals relating to this but they dont do
multiple field search (like day of birth and telephone numbers etc)
the form i would like to have should do a search for exmp. by phone number but than also displays all other corresponding user info in the results
the xls file included has some advanced features like automated building of commandbar menu's and has mailing features (currently quoted out) + build in timer events + on close auto save + allot.
I have created several userforms within my excel spreadsheet and i want to be able to click a command button on one form which will then hide the current form and show the next form. In previous spreadsheets i have used the following:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Form1.Hide
Form2.Show
End Sub
However, i am having trouble with this spreadsheet as when i am typing my code after the Form1. the hide command (and show) does not appear in the little pop scroll bar that predicts what command you plan to use. (If i type it regardless then it doesnt execute)
What is even stranger is that if i write a sub routine in a module such as:
Sub Test_Form()
Form1.Hide
Form2.Show
End Sub
And then call it:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Call Test_Form
End Sub
i'm trying to build an app that'll take a user through 5 or 6 steps of a process, with maybe 2-3 substeps in some steps. right now i'm currently using a multipage Userform , but all the tabs make the whole thing look cluttered (even when there's a "Next" button in plain sight). this is especially because i've put each substep as a multipage form under that step's page (multipage forms inside a multipage form). so steps 1-5 would each have their own pages (1-5), then in page 1 you'd have another multipage form (1.a. - 1.c.). is there a way to make it look simpler? i'd like it to look a bit like a Wizard (ie remove all the tabs), but the only way i can think of is to throw a whole heap of controls on one page, and turn them visible/invisible each step of the way.

OK from here i want to count the number of times in the month the Threshold has been exceeded. I can do this by using the countif formula.
Now this is the section i need help on
For a specified time, say a month, i want to count the maximum number of times the Threshold has been exceeded consecutively.
E.g

Would anyone be able to tell me how to display a promp at an excel workbook startup so that users agree to the terms and conditions?
View 4 Replies View Relatedwhen I powered up my workstation, the workbook has reverted back to calculating upon startup. I have provided a sanitized version of the workbook. I think the issue with the calculations during startup may not be apparent to you due to your inability to access the Access database this workbook extracts data from. I attached a test database which should hopefully work correctly with the workbook to demonstrate the calculation issue. Extract and save the test database in c:emp. That is where the workbook import queries will look for it.
The live workbook is much larger and on a remote server so the calculations take a lot longer than what you might see here.
Is there some way to detect that a key (specific or any) is being pressed when an Excel workbook is being opened to activate optional precessing in the macro code?

I am trying to create a line graph and I have 17 rows of data for 17 different employees. There are 18 rows when including the header row.
My data is as follows
Column A - Employee Name
Column B - Month 1 data
Column C - Month 2 data
Column D - Month 3 data
Column E - Month 4 data
Column F - Month 5 data
When I highlight the data and go to the chart wizard, I select "Series in Rows".
However, on the series tab it only brings in the data for 6 employees.
Is there a way to automatically bring in all the data without having to do it manually, or is this a limitation of Excel?
I have a macro that runs when a spreadsheet is opened however i sometimes need it not to run. Rather then furiously hit escape i was hoping to get a dialog box that would prompt yes/no to run the macro and if an option was not chosen after a few second then to run the macro anyway (so basically only by clicking "no" would you stop the macro from running).
I found this code here that gives me the yes/no message box and the 5 second time-out to get rid of the message box, however if the message times out it doesn't run the macro. what i need to tweak to make it do so if no input comes from the user? [URL]
What would be the macro to open a specific worksheet upon startup?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Macro that opens numerous excel files.
What code do I require to cancel the startup message?
ie. The message that displays "Disable / Enable Macros" (security setting cannot be changed, so message is always displayed).
Plus I then have some startup message boxes which I manually click OK to continue, but how do I cancel this messages using VBA Code?
There are two macros that i'd liek to add to my personal macro workbook upon startup of excel.
i tried to do them without coding but it appears that some actual coding is necessary.
1) i'd like to be able to select any # of cells anywhere on the page and hit ctrl+shift + n and have all of those selected cells read #N/A (the forumula is =na() )
2) i'd like to be able to select any number of columns (i do finance/econ research so all data is in chronological order from 1960-present along the columns. i.e. each variable is a column vector.) and be able to hit ctrl+shift+b and have VBA make a chart in a new sheet with my default settings
i've tried to do these but recording the macro hard codes the select cells for 1) and always runs into weird problems for 2).
Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.visible = false
call Program
End Sub
It seems to work, except that the workbook is visible for about 1 second. I have a user form that opens for username/password verification.
Is there any way to prevent the workbook from becoming visible at all until I want it to?
how can i set a macro to start on whenever the computer is started first on any day.
