Stop, Cancel OnTime Event Macro
Nov 11, 2006
I have a real simple question about what command to enter in order to stop a macro. All the macro does is "press the F9 key" every second. I use a button to start the loop but I am unable to find a way to use another button to stop the process. Ive copied my macro below:
Sub Go()
Calculate
Application .OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "Go"
End Sub
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() "Go Button"
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "Go"
End Sub
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click() "Stop Button"
'????????????????????????
End Sub

I have 2 macros, each called by the other to keep updates fast as per below,
Sub Macro1()
Cells.Replace What:=",29", Replacement:=",30", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
Application .OnTime Now() + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "Macro2"
End Sub
Sub Macro2()
Cells.Replace What:=",30", Replacement:=",29", LookAt:=xlPart, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False
Application.OnTime Now() + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "Macro1"
End Sub
I need to create a separate macro I can run to permanently stop these two cycling. And allow me to use Excel. Then, when I wish for these to cycle again, I simply run that macro.

the following workbook open event which repeats a macro called "Refresh" every 30 minutes. However, there is another macro "tame_blph" that i wanna call at 12 midnight everyday.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Call tame_blph
NextTick = Now + TimeValue("00:30:00")
Application .OnTime NextTick, "Refresh", , True
End Sub
Is it even possible to have multiple Workbook open events and/or multiple NextTick or something?

how to automate my excel sheet i have got.
It has code which when you click the "Save" button it saves the document and then converts a copy as CSV with the same name.
I have been trying to automate this to run every 2 minutes but everything i have tried does not work.
I have tried using OnTime events but again does not work.

I've got the following code as part of a userform
Private Sub cmbPlant_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
If cmbPlant.MatchFound = False Then
cmbPlant.BackColor = &HC0&
If MsgBox("Required!" & vbNewLine & "Please Select Correct Plant Number", vbOKOnly + vbExclamation, "Plant Number") = vbCancel Then Exit Sub
Cancel = True
Else
cmbPlant.BackColor = &H80000005
End If
End Sub
I also have a cancel button
Private Sub cmdCancel_Click()
If MsgBox(" Cancelling Will Clear This Form." & vbNewLine & " No Data Will Be Entered." & vbNewLine & "Are You Sure You Wish To Cancel?", vbYesNo + vbQuestion, "Cancel Data Entry") = vbNo Then Exit Sub
Unload Me
End Sub
If someone clicks the cancel button before using the plant # combo, the form closes, but the cmbplant_exit msgbox pops up too.

I want to be able to reset the value in a combobox, but without the combobox executing code, when it resets. Is there any way of doing this?
I have tried the code below but the ComboBox still executes when its value is changed.
Sub Reset_combobox()
Worksheets("Sheet1").ComboBox1.Enabled = False
Worksheets("Sheet1").ComboBox1.Value = 1
Worksheets("Sheet1").ComboBox1.Enabled = True
End Sub
The workbook containing the above is attached.

I've set up code where when a cell within a specified range of cells is selected, a macro will run. This works all well and good except for when a whole row, column or range containing the defined cells is selected, there is a run time error. There is no situation where I want multiple cells selected to run the macro, so I only want to run the macro when only a single cell within that range is selected.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("GoToRange")) Is Nothing Then
Application.Run "'Macro Test Current MY PFEP Metrics.xls'!PFEP_Filter"
End If
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("GoToRange2")) Is Nothing Then
Application.Run "'Macro Test Current MY PFEP Metrics.xls'!PFEP_Filter"
End If
End Sub
The ranges defined are non-contigious ranges.

I have 80 worksheets in my workbook, each worksheet contains a table which must be updated on the first day of each month. On each sheet I need vba to duplicate the value in cell A10 to replace the next zero value in column E; duplicate the value in cell F10 to replace the next zero value in column J. Then, continue the same operation on the next sheet.

Is it possible to use a macro that needs parmeters as part of an application.ontime instruction? - I am getting a macro cannot be found error message.
If I change the called macro so that parameters are not required, it is found OK (but obviously isn't doing what I want anymore!).
I reckon it is something to do with the quotations around the macro name

my 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.

I've been setting the above property to TRUE after making some changes in the Workbook_open event in order to stop annoying messages if you haven't physically made changes.
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to copy through to the workbook_beforeclose event and I'm being asked if I want to save changes even though the macro made the changes and then set the property.
Here's my code for the open event :-
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
On Error Resume Next
For counter = Worksheets.Count To 2 Step -1
Sheets(counter).Visible = xlVeryHidden
Next
Sheets("Desktop").Visible = True
Sheets(1).Visible = xlVeryHidden.....

I have the following macro that runs every time the system clock's second changes to 07 seconds. I however want it to stop running at 09:47 am. I have the code to stop the timer also (given below) but I am unable to stop the loop at 09:47 am. How do I do that?
VB:
Sub Timer()With Workbooks("book3.xlsm").Sheets("Sheet1")
Range("B10:E10").ClearContents
End With
Application.OnTime DateAdd("n", 1, CDate(Left(Now, Len(Now) - 2) & "07")), "Timer"
End Sub

Firstly you don't need to know anything about Bloomberg to answer this query, only that Bloomberg has various functions that take time to update.
The code Application.Run "RefreshEntireWorkbook" will update these functions but Application.OnTime (Now + TimeValue("00:00:25")), "RunList" is required to allow them time to get the data from the feed. However this only works if the refresh and wait commands are in a seperate function. So in simplified terms it must go like this in vba:

I am using Excel2010.
My sheet displays values collected from a database via an AddIn. The values are updated by pressing CTRL+G (AddIn function).
I have an OnTime macro running SendKeys "^G" to update the values every minute. When the values exceed a certain limit, a sound is played from a custom Alarm function.
This all works as long as the excel window is active.
But if excel is minimized or another window is opened, the values stop updating until Excel is active again.
When the values dont update the sound is not played and that defeats the purpose of the sheet.

I 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?

the title should read... pressing cancel in inputbox, continues the macro... In theory, pressing the cancel button should stop the macros, but it continues as if pressing ok button...

The below code works well. However I would like to give the users an option to opt out of running the code when the message box appears.
Code:
Sub delete_sheets()
Beep
MsgBox "This will delete All Sheets but the active sheet"
*****this is where I would like to use an additional message box or include it in the above message box an option for the user to cancel this code****
Range("XA1") = ActiveSheet.Name
ActiveSheet.Name = ("Delete_Sheets")
Dim ws As Worksheet
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
For Each ws In Worksheets
If Not ws.Name = "Delete_Sheets" Then ws.Delete
Next ws

I'm using Excel 2002 on and XP machine. I am creating a spreadsheet to track a work plan.
Column A: Name
Column B: Date
Column C: Time
Column D: YES
Column E: No
Column F: New Date
Column G: New Time
What I'm looking to do is input click able buttons in Columns D: Yes and Column E: No.
When a user clicks on YES, a pop up window should appear with the data in columns A,B,C.
The p0p-up should contain CONFIRM and CANCEL buttons.
Asking the user if they want to confirm the date and Time.
If CONFIRM is clicked Excel should then send an email to me and the user to say that the work schedule has been confirmed.
If CANCEL is clicked the pop-up window closes.
Secondly if the user clicks NO, a pop-up window should open with two free text boxes. One for Proposed date and One for Proposed time. And again 2 buttons for Confirm and Cancel.
If Confirm is clicked then Excel should record the data entered in the free text boxes into Column G and Column H and send emails to me and the user with the Proposed date and Time Data.
If CANCEL is clicked the pop-up window closes.

I would choose to select the delete button. I've created a new worksheet within a workbook, insert text and formatting, and copied to a specific place in the active worksheet. Everything works well except 1. there is a LOT of coding because I recorded the macro and 2. the delete message pops up for every files the macro manipulates. I have to click "delete" about 60 times throughout this macro and would love to be able to let it click its own delete button!

I have written some very basic code to format a report in excel. When I run the code it take a very long time to execute and I receive the following error message at the foot of the page:
Cell (press esc to cancel)
Annoyingly I have had this error before and found the solution on the web but can't remember where. If memory serves my right I deleted some temp files from a specific location on my hard drive?

If you run it now, ctrl t, it produces letters and changes alphabets as it hits a yellow box. If i change or add a yellow box, the letters change fine. The macro works perfectly, but instead of inputting the range or K3 to what ever, i would like to to run this macro and stop once it sees the row with the sort number of 4. ( this changes row postion depending on which sheet im working on, this is the problem).

I have a spreadsheet containing a macro to automatically sum values from week to week and display the max/min and average. This is almost fully working. The problem I have is the macro copies the sum formula down the page and doesn't stop at the last row. It always adds one or two extra rows. The formula should stop at row 77 however this does not happen and therefore the sum keeps going. Which in turn, distorts the max/min figures.

I'm trying to create a macro to input information into a cell then repeat until the information stops.
So say I have 10 rows of information that fill up A1:D10. in E1:E10 I'd like a macro to insert some data into E1 then go to E2 and do the same until the end and then stop. So since A11:D11 would be blank the formula would just stop.
I actually work on 100's of cells a day and this is for a bigger project I'm trying to put together or I would just drag.

I have got he below code in "thisworkbook" it works fine but I have a problem with it if it has been closed before the time expires. If it is closed it tries to reopen it and then close it again. So for my users who have got their security set to prompts the file will be closed and a message box appears saying "enable or disable Macros". If it is already closed than i dont really want this to happen. My security is set to low but i still see it flash up and the bottom then dissappear again. How can i get the Macro to stop if it has already beed closed??
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Sheets("database").Select
Range("au16").Select
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:15:00"), "TimeOut"
If ThisWorkbook.ReadOnly Then
MsgBox ("The file is currently being used by another user, please contact them to ensure they have not left the file open.")
ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False
End If
End Sub
Sub TimeOut()
ThisWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=True

I am running a macro that populates the same chart with variable data. I have approximately 40 sets of data and wish to pause or stop the macro to view one of the sets of data more closely. The pause option would be better but Stop option is acceptable
