Stop Now Function Auto Updating When New Row Added
Oct 29, 2008
I have fought with this for 2 days and I am trying to have a worksheet cell update the date and time if the cell it is referencing (B3 see below)
Here is the formula I am using however it updates every time a new row is added to the worksheet. So the Date/Time stamp on each row is always updated to NOW() everytime.
=IF(ISNA(B3),"0/0/00 00:00",NOW())
I would like to have a Date/Time stamp stay as is once that row has been added. Is there anyway to stop the field from updating once the date and time have been set?

It seemed to be working OK for the first hour I had my sheet open. I then noticed that a variation of the following Sub would not update unless I clicked somewhere else in the sheet or edited another non-included cell. It's like something is holding up Excel from running this function and updating the cells if b2 is greater than a3 then a3 will not update to = b2 immediately.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If [b2] > [a3] Then [a3] = [b2]
End Sub
My data in column B is formula derived and that formula contains data that is live updated data brought in from DDE link.
My question is, should I setup this formula as part of a macro, instead of workbook code and attach an Application.Ontime function to ensure reliable execution? Could too many IF statements cause delays (about 100 of them currently in the code Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range))?

I copy a table from a data dump dbf file into worksheet 1. I enter a separate column titled "Comments" and use this for status purposes. My problem is that when I refresh the worksheet, my comments don't stay attached to the rows/ records that they were originally entered for.

The code below is for a macro that allows the user to create a list of contacts. The column containing the names of these contacts are then referenced by a userform (code not present) by way of a Named Range. I want to update the named range whenever the user adds another contact so this new contact shows up in the user form.
I am currently referencing the range containing the names using R1C1 style, but I cannot get the variable aspect to work correctly.

In my worksheet i use a macro to produce my results which runs perfect.
Later i copied my range and pasted as picture link in another sheet.Since then the macro takes a long time to run. I suppose while running the macro xl continuously updates the picture slowing the macro.
i already set calculation as manual but no use.

I have a sheet that highlight cells to show that they need to still be filled out if another cell in the same row has a number in it. What happens is that when you put the number in the row the cells won't become shaded or partially shade until the workbook is saved.. Maybe I can put some code in that tells the work book to update whenever a cell is changed?

I have a worksheet with 300 rows and I have a separate worksheet that contains graphs based on the data in the 300 rows.
The data is continually updated but stays at 300 rows. I add a new row at 301 and then I delete row 1.
I set the graphs up with a Chart Data Range of =GData!$B$1:$AB$300
As I add and delete rows the Chart Data Range reduces so after adding and deleting 3 rows the Chart Data Range is now =GData!$B$1:$AB$297
How can I get the Chart Data Range to stay at =GData!$B$1:$AB$300?

I have a graph that is showing the date on "Y" axis and a value on "X" axis, when I add a new date and value to my data the graph does not update, it just shows the data when I first created the graph.
How do I get the graph to display the new data I entered ?
I created a line graph by clicking on the "A" in column "A" (Thats where my date is) then clicking on the "B" in column "B" (Thats where my values are) and clicking the create graph button then clicked finished.

consolidating data from 3 worksheets which contain same data fields but each representing 1 brand. I like to have a summary/mastersheet to contain data from all 3 worksheets and then when the data in each worksheet is added or updated, the summary worksheet should reflect the changes (adding new data to the last row).

how to make all cells displaying an item from the list source update with new information added to list source.
Example:
Cell "A1" on worksheet 2 displays the 3rd slot of information from list source on worsheet 5. I want cell "A1" on worksheet 2 to update when the list source information in the 3rd slot on worksheet 5 is changed.
Notes:
The list is set up by naming the columns on Worksheet 5 and is set as a validation list on the other worksheets. So on Worksheet 2 column "A" has the validation
VB:
AutoLinked keywords will cause extra spaces before keywords. Extra spacing is NOT transferred when copy/pasting, but IS if the keyword uses "quotes".
List=(Coulumn A 's name on worksheet 5)

I have 2 drop down menus based on car make and model.
The first contains Make and the second contains the models of that make using the indirect function (All through data validation (this may be my problem))
Now what I'm wanting is that when the Make changes, the Model will automatically changes to either the top (or any really) model from the list for that make or to change to blank. So can this be done without VBA?

It's some code I found and altered that automatically updates the cell to the right of a column that has drop down box data validation, creating a list of the selected values seperated by commas. The thing is, I only want it to do this in columns 8 and 10 but data validation drop-down boxes have been used in several other columns. I've tried various methods of limiting the scope, the latest being the line: If Target.Column = 8 Or 10 Then. But the auto update is still being applied to all drop down boxes in the sheet. So, how can I make sure the auto update only happens when the drop down boxes in columns 8 and 10, updating into columns 9 and 11.

Everytime that I insert a row into a worksheet which a number of formulae refer to, those formulae get updated automatically in such a way that it is not in my favour.
The formulae refer to rows 2:2000 on a number of different columns. Adding a new row shifts the references to 3:2001. I presume that I can stop this from happening
Example:
= SUMPRODUCT(('List of DD Donors'!E2:E2000)*('List of DD Donors'!F2:F2000='DD Tally'!E6)*IF(DATEDIF(('List of DD Donors'!G2:G2000)-1,DATE(2006,3,31),"m")>12,12,DATEDIF(('List of DD Donors'!G2:G2000)-1,DATE(2006,3,31),"m")))
changes to...
=SUMPRODUCT(('List of DD Donors'!E3:E2001)*('List of DD Donors'!F3:F2001='DD Tally'!E6)*IF(DATEDIF(('List of DD Donors'!G3:G2001)-1,DATE(2006,3,31),"m")>12,12,DATEDIF(('List of DD Donors'!G3:G2001)-1,DATE(2006,3,31),"m")))

What I am wanting to do is have excel insert a static date automatically. I know ctrl + : inserts date and ctrl shft + ; inserts time. I want excel to do this automatically. The now() and today() functions auto update the date. I dont want the date auto updated when the file is reopened after it is saved. The file is a template so I guess what I am really wanting is a automatic date/time stamp when the user saves the file so when it is emailed and reopened the date does not auto update.

So, I work in a large indoor grow facility, and as such, we need to keep an active, updated calendar of all activities that will need to happen in the grow. If something happens to a set of plants, we need to change to date of transplant into the next pot size and every transplant after that, as well as moves into the flowering room from the vegetative room.
I have tried to manually make a calendar (I'm not worried about auto-generating a calendar or auto-filling dates, only things that happen on those days.) and tie in this information, but I'm having issues automatically searching a column and finding the date, and then pulling more information from that row automatically. (i.e. If anything in Column E has the date 7/3/14, then fill the data from Column C and Column B on the same row.)
I'm attaching a copy of the spreadsheet that I am trying to pull the Data from, and a copy of the Calendar I mocked up.
FYI, the spreadsheet I am pulling from Automatically fills once you put in the Clone Date, and then if you add in an adjusted date, it will adjust all later dates from that same section.
I tried to find something other than Excel as well to do this for me, but AFAIK nothing exists to make the calendar update Live, only to reproduce a new calendar with the current spreadsheet. This is not an option, I need it to stay up to date.

I have created below vba code but don't understand how to stop the auto incrementing.
[Code] ......
It end ups giving me see below.
Week 5+6
Week 5+7
Week 5+8
Week 5+9
Week 5+10
Week 5+11
And what I want is that it shows in all the lines “week 5+6”

And if I add a dot behind the 6 then either.
But I just want it AutoFill that what I have inserted in the box!

Have been trying to set a chart here to autoupdate which normally is fine to do. In this case however there are other columns in the data table that run down to Dec 2014. Even if i define my needed range, the graph will show the full timeframe (with lots of unneccessary space).
I've attached an example. Rate % is the column that will be updated monthly and I would like the graph to only increment along when a new figue is entered here. I've defined this range as 'Rate' within the sheet.

I am working on an inventory issue, we use a bar code scanner to read in inventory, and when we move inventory.
One of our inventory items has a number that is 20-numerical characters long, Excel seems to convert the last 5 characters to zeros (0).
An Example number would be: 89148000000286153971 Excel changes the number to: 89148000000286100000

I run a macro that imports a table from web page:
[url]
I import only the table with no formatting.
Excel tries to be helpful, and formats some of the cells in scientific notation.
I have tried to format the column to the "Text" format prior to the import with
Columns(2).NumberFormat = "@"
This does not work. If you import the table you can see that rows 1405, 1406, 1407, 1408 all have the same scientific notation value. Their true values should be 0E0, 0E4, 0E8, 0E9 respectively.
There are quite a few other instances in the column when a text value has "E" for the second character that Excel will format on its own.

I use a query table to import data into a workbook which works fine
With wsActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:=sQueryString, _
Destination:=wsActiveSheet. Range("A1"))
.Name = CStr("main.html?LANG=de&search=true&searchterm=" & sIdentifier & "_1")
.PreserveFormatting = True
.BackgroundQuery = False
.RefreshStyle = xlInsertEntireRows 'xlInsertDeleteCells
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.WebSelectionType = xlSpecifiedTables
.WebTables = "9,14"
.WebPreFormattedTextToColumns = True
.WebSingleBlockTextImport = False
.WebDisableRedirections = False
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
End With
One of the fields I import has a value like 100:01 or 10:01 or 01:01 or other combinations (the above ones are the most frequent ones).
Unfortunately excel always converts this field into a date and a time but this is not what I want.
Is there any way to stop excel doing this? I tried to work around it with the text property e.g. formating it to text after I imported the data and formating the entire sheet to use text before

I'm trying to create an autoupdating price list using a part number and a website. I've tried Excel's data import wizard.
Website: WebFLIS - Public Search
Sample data Category
Chaplain Kits
Item
Chaplain's Kit, Consumable
NIIN
9925-01-326-2855
Price
$276.94
Description
Also called the ReSuppply Kit
VBA Code that allows me to automatically open the page.
Dim IE As Object
Sub submitFeedback3()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
[Code] ......
Ideally, I'd like to click a button that says "Update Prices" and it will search WebFlis for the NIIN listed and update the price. I have 717 items on my list so updating would be by click only (I think I can write that portion).
If that is not an option, I'd like to be able to click on each item row (think hyperlink) and be able to see the results for that individual item.

I decided to format my data as a table so that excel will auto-fill my formulas when inserting new rows which works quite well. I have one snag though, when trying to insert a new row at the very top (i.e. inbetween the header and first row) and choosing Format As Below, it also applies Data Validation and Conditional Formatting to the header. The inserted row, however, is actually formatted fine and works well.
How do I stop this from happening, and why would Excel do this anyway (as it is effectively applying formatting to TWO rows when only one row is being inserted)?
