how to stop macros running on a particular worksheet within a workbook. I have a workbook monitoring vehicle faults with a control sheet. The control sheet displays the reg no and a "traffic light" indicator highlighting faults next to the reg no. Traffic light is turned red and green by If blank control. Each vehicle has a worksheet where faults can be recorded and a menu bar at the bottom of the screen operates numerous macros to "email worksheet"-"clear and copy to history" etc etc. The menu bar though can also be viewed and operated while in the control sheet. If a macro is activated within the control sheet it destroys it as it was not designed the same as the worksheets. Can I programme the menu to be inactive when in the control sheet OR that the menu will only appear when in every other sheet.
I need to know how to make a workbook (and any/all copies made there from) cease to function (become irreversibly read-only) after a specific period of time following the first time it is loaded by a user (this would be preferable), or after a specified date (this could also work).
I have a macro that I've been using for a while now for one workbook that I want to use in another workbook for the same purpose. But, when I try to run it in the second workbook it gives me a Runtime error (32809). Here is the macro:
Sub invisible() If Range("G16").Value = True Then ActiveSheet.Shapes("OptionButton13").Visible = False ActiveSheet.Shapes("OptionButton14").Visible = False Range("A36").Value = "Blah Blah Blah" Range("C36").Value = "" Range("C37").Value = "" ActiveSheet.Shapes("Check Box 182").Visible = False Range("I11").Value = "Blah Blah" Range("K11").Value = "" Range("B36").Value = True Else ActiveSheet.Shapes("OptionButton13").Visible = True ActiveSheet.Shapes("OptionButton14").Visible = True Range("A36").Value = "Blah Blah Blah" Range("C36").Value = "No" Range("C37").Value = "Yes" ActiveSheet.Shapes("Check Box 182").Visible = True Range("I11").Value = "Blah Blah" Range("K11").Value = "100" Range("J11").Value = False End If End Sub It is giving me the runtime error on this line:
ActiveSheet.Shapes("OptionButton13").Visible = True What could be the problem?
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 am using the below code and it is not performing the operations of comparing and deleting the duplicate values from sheet1 and pasting unique values in sheet 1, p.s. Do not need values from sheet 2, just want to compare the sheet 1 with 2 and delete dups in sheet1.
I am using excel 2013 in my laptop (windows 8.1) after having upgraded excel 2007. Everything works fine during my daily tasks. Especially autofill which I use quite often works perfect.
At the same time I upgraded my girlfriends laptop (Windows 7) with the office 2013 (office 2007 was the older version) and somewhere there begun some isues. Autofill doesn't. Especially with months or days. I enter the value "Monday", I drag down (of course using the black filled cross down right of the cell) the cursor and all the cells get the value Monday. Even if enter the value Tuesday in the second cell and then try to autofill (having marked before both these two cells) I get the same results. Monday, Tuesday, Monday, Tuesday.
I tried to test the autofill with numbers. If i write only the one number (for instance the value "1") and then autofill, this doesn't work. It gives me the value "1" in all the cells. But if I enter the value "2" in the second cell, the autofill works fine (marking these 2 cells and then autofill).
We make some online courses using exactly the same excel exercise files. In my laptop everything works perfect.
Sheet1 Column1: contains the word "dog" Column2: contains the word "bark"
Sheet2 Column1: contains the sentence "I like dogs a lot." Column2: is blank
What I need to do is search Sheet2/Column1 for the presence of "dog" and if it's present, populate the word "bark" in Sheet2/Column2 from Sheet1/Column2.
With Sheet3 'Sub TF() Dim i As Long For i = 1 To Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row If Cells(i, 1).Value = 1 And UCase(Cells(i, 2)) = "Y" Then Range("F1").Value = "GREEN" End If: Next: End Sub End With
To allow me to push my macro hotkey while im on sheet1 and have it run the macro thats on sheet3 but it does not work
I have a bit of code which performs correctly but it ONLY works if it is pasted into the worksheet using VBA. I currently have to manually copy/paste it before it will work and I am needing a macro to handle inserting this for me.
how to get a macro to copy/paste into Sheet1 under the VBAProjects heading?
I have this macro code in Sheet1 assigned to a button named Combination. I copied the whole sheet twice and moved to end. So they have the same data content and hopefully the macro in sheet1 will work as well in sheets2 and 3. But it's not. I just copied the code from VB codes Excel objects Sheet1 to Sheet2 and Sheet3. The cursor changed to a reading glass but it doesn't display any result. I am sure it's the worksheets(1).range part that needs to be edited but i am not sure if that is simply changing it to worksheets(2) or worksheets(3). I tried that also but no effect also.
Option Explicit
Public Sub ModelPricing_Template()
Dim a As Integer, b As Integer, c As Integer, d As Integer Dim e As Integer, f As Integer, g As Integer
I dont know how to do it here, but in Excel i have January (2columns) Febaruy (2columns) March tables. filled each table with its determinated data, and going down i have 3 more months, and so etc till i complete 12 tables one per month.
So now what i need is: That in Sheet1, where is Select Month be some kinda of drop down list, which allow me to pick the month i wanna see, and then when i pick. for example: April, then go to Sheet2, find the April table, and bringthe values to fill the table in Sheet1 , whatever option be, flirting, or copying just values, or filling the table. I really dont know what be easier.And then if i pick another month like October, do the same, etc.
I have I workbook that contains 2 sheets. The first sheet "Business Objects" is the master list. The second sheet "Gene" contains similar data but is incomplete. There is a unique identifer for both sheets and that is item ID. what I would like to do is look at the Item ID column on sheet1 compare it to SS# on sheet two and copy any rows from sheet1 to the end of the sheet in sheet 2. I have found in my searches on this forum a bit of code that identifies the ones in sheet1 that are not in Sheet2 and highlights them red(which is not neccessary for me, but I am struggling to figure out how to take that and paste it to sheet2.
i need to make a button that Immidiately stops all macro's, Or (and This will maby be little more difficult) Stop all macros on a specific time inserted in 1 cell
the macro's that i want to stop running, are all single macro's which i activate with only 1 button i created.
i like something like this:
if "A1"(this is the cell where i have my updated clock) == A2 (the time i insert here stops the macro's at this time) do stop Macro's
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 End Sub
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
I have macros that often pause for the user to take some action -- for instance, to confirm that the correct cells are selected, or to delete something. Usually I use the "Stop" command, which opens the VBA editor; when I finish doing the manual action, I just resume the macro.
When writing macros for actual users, I'd like to do the same thing without their having to deal with the VBA window. Is there a way to pause and resume action and remain in the Excel window?
I did not want to bother you again but I have a problem that I can not solve it because my knowledge in vba etc, are limited and could not become to find with Macro Recorder.Usually I solve the problems on my own by searching on Google and experimenting with ready Macros and Macro Recorder.
I have an excel file with a macro and I want before this macro launched, to run another macro that can check if the headers have the correct name and in its correct position. The headers is in first Row.
If are not in the correct position or if it doesn't exist or if not have the correct name, then the process of the next macro be stopped and of course be informed that there is a problem.But if Is everything okay, then proceed to the next macro and be informed that Is everything okay.
I have attached a Sample file with the headers i'm using.
Example: I have Sheet 2 set to autocalculate on activate using vb. So when you click on that tab "Sheet 2" it will autocalculate.
My Question is, I have another macro that is copying information between Sheet 1 and Sheet 2. And I don't want calculation to occur during the macro but since it has to select Sheet 2 it performs the autocalculate. Do I have any options to prevent the calculation from occuring when I run my copy paste macro? I only want it to autocalculate when the user selects sheet 2
I've got a series of macros in place which, essentially, download several CSV files into a temp directory, then opens each and copies the data into a single workbook (one sheet).
What happens is that the some number of the sheets don't actually open until the macro stops. I've tried using the wait (Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("00:00:10")) and sleep functions, but it's not quite doing what I want.
What I'd LIKE to do is have the macro actually STOP processing for 10 seconds, then proceed (or start a new macro).
I've also tried putting the wait behind a button in a userform, which is non modal... the csv files open until the user clicks the button.
Sub del() Dim myRange As Range Set myRange = Range("AK3:AL3" & Range("AL" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row) For i = 1 To myRange.Rows.Count If myRange(i, 1) >= myRange(i, 2) Then myRange(i, 1) = "" myRange(i, 2) = "" End If Next i End Sub
How do I add a condition that will stop the macro if myRange = ""/is empty?
On a worksheet I have a command button that displays a ConfigureCatalog form.
Code: Public StopRequested as Boolean
'Worksheet Command Button will display the Configure Catalog Form Private Sub CmdConfigure_Click() CatalogConfigForm.Show vbModeless End Sub
The ConfigureCatalog userform has two Command Buttons: cmdRebuildCatalog, and cmdStop. RebuildDSWCatalog is a macro that reads and analyzes just over 35,000 records and updates other worksheets. As it runs, it repaints the CatalogConfigForm with a progress message every 100 records. It can run for about 3 minutes. I want to provide a "STOP" button that will allow the user to interrupt the RebuildDSWCatalog macro and return control to the user.
Code: Private Sub cmdRebuildCatalog_Click() StopRequested = False Call RebuildDSWCatalog End Sub
Private Sub cmdStop_Click() StopRequested = True End Sub
While processing the 35,000 records, I want the RebuildDSWCatalog macro to check whether StopRequested has been set to TRUE prior to processing the record. If StopRequested = TRUE, I want to drop out of the macro.
Code: Public Sub RebuildDSWCatalog() StopRequested = FALSE For DSWRecord = DSWStart To DSWCount If StopRequested = True Then
[Code] ....
Problem is that once the RebuildDSWCatalog macro starts running, the STOP command button never seems to get the focus back. All other input is inhibited until the macro ends.
It just ignores that I'm hitting that STOP button. In fact, the button doesn't visibly respond at all until RebuildDSWCatalog finishes processing all 35,000 records.
