Trying to get my code to loop for one minute. Have tried this code (after searching through a few threads):
Sub LoopUsingTime()
x = 1
EndTime = Now + TimeValue("00:01:00")
For lCount = Now() To EndTime
Sheet1. Cells(x, 1) = "the time is now " & Now()
Sleep 5000
x = x + 1
Next lCount
MsgBox ("loop finished")
End Sub
Can I adapt this code so that users receive the alert if they try and go to the next field without filling in the required ones, or - better - to combine it with a code that does not run a macro, but instead gives the alert, if the required fields have been missed. (I don't require anything to do with printing, this was the closest code I could find)
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
If Sheet1. Range("A1").Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Cannot print until required cells have been completed!"
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
I wanted to run a macro at 08:00 each day. I tested the macro would auto start and run, and set the test to start at 13:00.
In the Private module of the Workbook I put
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application .OnTime TimeValue("08:00:00"), "MyMacro"
End Sub
and in a standard module
Sub TestTimeMacro()
Application.OnTime TimeValue("08:00:00"), "MyMacro"
End Sub
Initially I had the TimeValue set as 13:00:00. The test worked OK so I changed the timevalue to 08:00:00.
The macro now runs at 08:00 and 13:00.
How do I stop the 13:00 event?
Trying to use VBA to prevent users from sending a form unless all fields have been completed, then highlight blank cells, and send a pop-up message that all cells in myRange need to be filled out. Otherwise, send the worksheet.
My code will highlight the blank cells, but it only highlights one cell at a time and then I have to click on the pop-up message for it to highlight the next one, and then the email still goes out.
How can I fix this to highlight all the blank cells at once, with only one pop-up message, and prevent the email from going out?

I use a code in ThisWorkbook to always open on sheet 1 when opening up the excel spreadsheet.Is there a code that I could put in to ThisWorkbook that would do a check that the workbook was e.g. "WorkbookA". If it wasn't then the start up code would be cancelled/ignored.The reason for this is that I am copying this workbook whenthe user has entered details in to it and so I do not want this code to run in the saved workbook, that will have a different name.
Workbook A is the master copy or template

I 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..
I have a small project at work where I am being asked to put a simple spread sheet that will calculate a start/stop time - and also include the date. For example:
Start time 5pm, date: 3/13. The spread sheet to auto calculate what the stop time and date will be if a specific amount of hours is to be calculated. For example in this case, 12 hours. From calculating in my head that would be 5am the following day. However, how can I get this in excel to work and therefore all i would have to do is enter the start time and date, + 12 hrs, and excel would calculate the time/date after the additional 12 hrs.
I am creating time sheet application , obviously i need to store the time when the user logs & logs out .. The issue is, the user can "Cheat" by changing the system time ...
Any alternatives?? Is it possible to store the time from a particular server etc or some other source.
I'm opening a workbook and then running the macro in the workbook. The problem is I would like to build a "timeout" feature if the macro is running too long (as some of the macro's this will run can take days to complete) but I don't know how to run the macro asynchronously. Also I need to know if i can get it to run asynchronous is there an event that will tell me when the process is finished. The calling application of the macro is written in VB6 and opening excel workbooks to run the macros out of. also the "timeout" feature must be done from the VB6 application it cannot be edited into the the workbooks containing the macro.
View 6 Replies View RelatedAttached is an example of the program. The purpose of this program is to allow someone with very little knowledge about the information to enter data. The first tab labeled "Instructions" is will have two macros assigned to the buttons at the bottom of the page. The first macro labeled "Move Data" will move data will clear data in the shaded cell on the "Entry Form" sheet and fill those cells in with '----. The second macro labeled "Generate and Save" will save a master copy of the program, save a historical copy of the program by date, and print/save a pdf copy of the "Reports" sheet.
Each one of the historical (the last 8 sheets of the program) sheet receives data from the "Entry Form" and then moves the data by date into the table for archiving purposes.
If you look at the code for the "Entry Form". I have a couple of subs. The first being Worksheet_change. the first section of this code is to force certain cells to be uppercase. This part of the code is working fine. The second part of the code is the Dim MyValues. This part is working fine also, but...
My issue is... When I run the move data macro from the "Instructions" sheet the Dim MyValues reads these as changes to the cells and wants to push the data to the historical sheets.
What I would like is an IF Statement above the Dim MyValues part of this code that stops the Dim MyValue part of the code running if those values are blank, 0, or have '---- entered into them.

View 11 Replies View RelatedI have created a few macros and once I was happy that they worked independently I joined them to run as one macro in several steps. I have just discovered a bug ...
The macro filters on a column and copies and pastes that range into another sheet.
HOwever, sometimes (as I have just discovered) when it filters, there will be no data against the value it is looking for.
I need to say, if no value, move to next step.
I.e. here's my code. It's looking for ASIA and it will copy and paste all rows with Asia to another page. It then does the same for EMEA. Thing is, in my example just now, there was no EMEA data and some times there may be no ASIA data so I need to build in some rules that if it does not find either of these it continues to finish macro or pops up and says 'NO ASIA found, CLick to continue' or something?

I have the following code that gets stuck in the Loop and will not stop unless I press the Esc key:
Sub WIP()
Dim ws1 As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet
Dim lastrow As Long
Dim newRow As Long
Set ws1 = Sheets("PAYCALC")
Set ws2 = Sheets("WIP")
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
With ws2
.Range("A2:C" & .Range("A2:C2").End(xlDown).Row).Clear
End With
x = 10
lastrow = ws1.Range("C5").End(xlUp)
Do
newRow = ws2.Cells(65536, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
ws2.Cells(newRow, 1) = ws1.Cells(x, 2).Offset(-2, 0).Value
ws2.Cells(newRow, 2) = ws1.Cells(x, 2).Value
ws2.Cells(newRow, 3) = ws1.Cells(x, 2).Offset(3, 0).Value
x = x + 21
Loop Until x >= lastrow
There's a twist to this. I have the same identiclecode in a different module. The only difference is ws2 is different and there are 7 newRow's. Other then that the two are the same.
That one works just fine without getting stuck. It will go through 200+ sets of records and stop when it reaches the last one.
The one above will not stop even though I just put in three records on ws1 for testing.
Sub do_it()
Dim x As Range
Set x = Columns(4).F ind("*test*", lookat:=xlWhole)
If x Is Nothing Then GoTo 999
r = x.Row
Cells(r, 1) = Cells(r, 1) & " (W)"
999
End Sub
I need the above code to continue down column 4 and add the " (W)" to the entire column.
The code stop when it finds the first match.
how I can disable an InputBox? I've got some code that whenever someone selects a cell in a specified range, an input box pops up (running a macro) - this can get annoying sometimes though if just browsing. Does anyone know a macro where I can "disable" this?

I 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.
I have a VBA code that when activated it copies 6 cells from sheet1 to the next available row in sheet2 - A2:F:2.

does it need a check cells for content if error highlight empty cell.
I have a simple macro that copies data from worksheet to another. I only want this macro to be run once per day by the user. One of the cells that gets copied is the value found in the formula "=today()". My thought is that the macro could look for the existance of the current date in the pasted data (meaning the macro has already been run once today), and if the date = today, then a message pops up warning the user that the macro has already been run once today, and ask if they're sure they want to continue.
Any easy way to accomplish what I'm attempting to do? The current date gets pasted into a worksheet name "PriorDay" in cell C5.

I am trying to programmatically select an item from a single selection listbox (i.e., set to fmMultiSelectSingle). The following code works properly only every other time I run it; the problem is extremely repeatable.
Const storeStartCell = "B5000"
Private Sub ListBox_CounterTOs_Click()
selectedTOName = CStr(Mid(Worksheets("Sheet1"). Range(storeStartCell).Offset(ListBox_CounterTOs.ListIndex, 0), 3, 3))
selectedTONumber = CInt(Mid(Worksheets("Sheet1").Range(storeStartCell).Offset(ListBox_CounterTOs.ListIndex, 0), 6, 4))
ListBox_TO_Name.Value = selectedTOName
ListBox_TO_Number.Value = selectedTONumber
End Sub
The times that it works, ListBox_TO_Name.Value is set to something like "ABC" and ListBox_TO_Number.Value is set to something like "1234". When the values get set properly, the associated click subroutines (e.g., ListBox_TO_Name_Click()) get called automatically when the value is set. The times that it doesn't work, they are both set to "" and the click subroutines do not get called. I also tried
myListbox.Selected(myIndex) = True
