If Statement To Stop Dim Code From Running

Apr 29, 2014

Attached 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.

I've got a worksheet_selectionchange macro on a sheet, and another macro that you can run after it. The issue is that when the second macro runs, it also runs the selectionchange macro, and wipes some of the info that the second macro should be copying.

Is there a piece of code that I can use in the second macro to block the selectionchance code from running until it's compelte?

VBA Activating Code On Mouse Hover

Apr 19, 2013

Is there any way I can activate a sub routine when the user passes the mouse cursor over an activeX object.

For example this activates code when the user interacts with an activeX scroll bar:

VB:
Private Sub ScrollBar2_gotfocus()
Dim A, B, C
If OLEObjects("checkbox1").Object.Value = False Then
B = Range("B4").Value
A = (100 - B) / 2
C = (100 - B) / 2
End If

IS there a "gotfocus" equivalent such that code will run if the user simply passes their mouse cursor over the scroll bar EVEN IF they dont click it?

'Store the row and column into G1 and G2 for the drop down loading
Call RowNum(target)
End Sub

Macro To Stop Running At Last Row

Aug 10, 2009

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.

Stop Combobox Sub Running?

Mar 7, 2014

I have a large macro called SplitData, which takes a load of data and splits it and reformats it each month.

I have 4 Activex Control combo boxes on one sheet that are linked to a range...this range changes each month, so I blank out the range and then repopulate.

My problem is that when I blank out the range, it triggers the Private Sub ComboBox1_Change() and throws some errors because there is no data to select.

So, I was wondering if there is something I can set in my SpltData macro that will not run the ComboBox1_Change sub while the SplitData macro is running?

Can't Stop Macro Running At Set Time

Apr 28, 2006

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?

Stop Userform Running Macro

May 14, 2007

I currently have a userform that runs a bunch of code for me. There are a lot of listboxes on the userform that have rowsources of various dynamic named ranges. I'm running into a problem when I have the used click the "Remove Item" button from the userform. Normally it is supposed to go back to the sourcerow and remove all of the cells that contain values that are selected in the listbox.

The code for removing the cells works just fine, however when it deletes a cell, for some reason the code executes a private sub that is in a different sheet. I can't figure out why and it's messing up my macro.

Here's the

FROM USERFORM:

Private Sub cmdAIRemove_Click()

For i = 0 To lbAISummary.ListCount - 1
If lbAISummary.Selected(i) = True Then
For Each cItem In Worksheets("Lists").Range("YourAI")
If lbAISummary.List(i) = cItem.Value Then
cItem.Delete (xlUp) '<- right after this line it jumps to NWSMonth_Change
i = i - 1
End If
Next cItem
End If
Next i
End sub...

Stop Macros Automatically Running At Predetermined Intervals

May 15, 2007

I am using a macro that automatically updates data obtained through a DDE link at 5 second intervals. My code is based off of the article "Automatically Run Macros at a Set Time or Date" found on the Ozgrid FAQs found here: http://www.ozgrid.com/Excel/run-macro-on-time.htm

However, I have this macro execute when I activate a Form Button, not when the workbook opens. So far, this macro works perfectly, and I have no problems. Although, I'd also like to include a Form button to STOP the macro from automatically running if the user chose to do so. How exactly would I go about making this STOP button?

Stop Macro Running After Specfied Time Period

Oct 17, 2007

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.

Calculations To Manual Before My Code Runs And Set It Back To Auto When My Code Is Done Running

May 12, 2009

I am dealing with several very large spreadsheets using VBA to do various things. I found that my code worked well, but was taking a long time to run. The biggest time consumer was my use of the AutoFilter features. I have since turned calculations to manual before my code runs and set it back to auto when my code is done running. What are the potential consequences of my turning calculations to manual and then back to auto?

Stop Code For ThisWorkbook

Nov 5, 2009

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

Code Changes Not Running

Nov 30, 2006

This is bizarre - over the last year or so, on two machines (one Win98SE/Off2K, the other Win2KSP4/Off2K3), very occasionally a change I've made to Excel/VBA code has been ignored (eg to add a MSGBOX call) - even after I've restarted Excel. The workaround is to add a blank line and remove it again in the actual code module, but its both annoying and intriguing,

Code To Stop Macro And Move On If No Value Found

Jul 2, 2013

I 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?

Selection.AutoFilter
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$12:AA" & lngLast).AutoFilter Field:=27, Criteria1:="ASIA"
Range("A13:Z" & lngLast).Select
Selection.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("ASIA DETAIL ").Select
Range("A19").Select

Code That Gets Stuck In The Loop And Will Not Stop Unless I Press The Esc Key

May 26, 2007

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.
