I have the following macro to recalculate the time every second on opening a spreadsheet
Sub Auto_Open()
Calculate
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:00:01"), "Auto_open"
End Sub
Looking for the code I need to add that will stop the macro when the file is closed.
I have a report whose calculation time I've reduced greatly by turning off automatic calculation and including in the worksheet code directions to only calculate the impacted range. BUT, it still takes a lot of time to calculate on close, when I turn automatic calculation back on. I'm afraid my users will think their machines have crashed. Does anyone know of a way so that on close, the workbook does not calculate, even though Calculation is turned back on to automatic?
Private Sub Workbook_Activate()
With Application
.Calculation = xlManual
.MaxChange = 0.001
.CalculateBeforeSave = False
End With
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()
With Application
.Calculation = xlAutomatic
.MaxChange = 0.001
End With
End Sub
I have a useform that loads up with two buttons and I waat to force the user to chose one of the buttons. However, I have noticed that the user can just press the cross in the top right corner of the form to close the window and therefore not press either button.
Is there anyway I can stop the close form button working?
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.

So every 60 seconds a copy is taken of say E2 and is pasted into J2, E3 is copied and pasted into J3 and so on all the way down the 2000 cells.

I would like to save a copy of the workbook that I am working on from time to time with the date and time added i.e. Budget 2009_YYYMMDDhhmmss but I need the original document Budget 2009 to continue to be active and displayed not the date/time stamped backup copy.
I need to know the command to close a workbook. I have used the information found here: http://www.ozgrid.com/VBA/userform-close.htm to disable closing the workbook via the upper right "X", but I need a button that, when clicked, simply closes the workbook instead.
View 2 Replies View RelatedCurrently i have a spreadsheet with realtime data feeds from Bloomberg (or reuters). What i would like to do is:
a. Fill a vector/column of data values every minute until we have 30 observations i.e. from 9.00am till 9.30pm
b. This will then allow me to calculate a moving average of the last 30 (1 minute) observations.
c. At 9.31am, the 9.00am value drops out of the column and is replaced by the observation at 9.31am. This results in a constantly updating column of the last 30 minute observations and will allow me to have a realtime moving average.
I am trying to make a save&close workbook macro.
I found several examples on google, but unfortunatly it conflicts with another macro I use for forceing users to enable macros (hide all sheets except one if macros are disabled).
The attached file is an example contaning the save&close code and the show/hide sheets depending on macros enabled.
If the file is opened with macros disabled then only one sheet will be visible.
If the file is opened with macros enabled other sheets are visible.
The problem if that this code uses a custom save, witch makes the save&close not save... (in module1 and in ThisWorkbook)
The pourpose of the save&close is to make sure some users don't forget the excel open and thus block access to it. So if a certain idele time passes excel has to save and close without any confirmation messages.
I am using Excel 2003.
It’s been working perfectly up until around an hour ago. However, now when I close Excel, I get compile errors.
These compile errors seem to be because Excel is trying to access controls in the workbook after it has closed. Since the workbook is closed, VBA can no longer ‘see’ the controls, and therefore it thows up errors.
I’m also getting a similar error on a Worksheets("DataExplorer").unprotect line, which seems to be because the worksheet isn’t there after closing.
These errors only occur when I close the whole excel application using the big cross in the top right. If I just close the workbook (using the smaller cross just below the big cross in the top right of excel), it doesn’t throw up these errors.
Just to clarify: all of the code runs perfectly when Excel is open. The errors are being thrown up for lines of code which run without problem until Excel is closed.
I have the following Macro setup and I would like the macro to run once the Save button is clicked.
Sub LetterCol()
Columns("C:C").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("D1").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
Columns("D:D").EntireColumn.AutoFit
Range("A1").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Range("D1").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "Letter Column"
Range("A1").Select
End Sub
I have a workbook that contains 4 macros. This workbook is copied by vb.net application with another name. When I run the macro in the copied worksheet, the Original file/workbook is opened automatically, and it is open until the copied workbook is closed.
My question:
1) Is this normal, when a copied workbook invokes a macro from the original workbook, the original workbook opens?
2) Is it possible to close the original workbook while executing the macro from the copied workbook?
3) Will that affect the macro in the copied workbook?
4) If possible to close the original workbook, kindly help me with the code.
I have a macro to run which will clear out all rows and move them corresponding sheets on the same workbook. At the minute i have this macro to run at 21.00 hours everyday. Is it possible to fire this macro to auto run before me closing a workbook so i don;t need to wait and also worksheet is saved with the latest changes
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to run what is a pretty basic macro when a file is closed
Sub Auto_Close()
FileCopy "C:Documents and SettingsdaveDesktopWorking olderPlanner.xls", "S:LeavePlanner.xls"

I've checked that the Auto_Close feature is what I need, but it just doesn't seem to be running
I've tried it from clicking the x, and also File>Close, but with the same lack of success
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).

View 3 Replies View RelatedUsing excel 2003, I have a ss that uses filters and sorting. I can get to the data I want but must reopen the workbook if I want to start over and extract different information. I tried installing this VBA:

This is my first time at inserting VBA. Usually I just use keystroke macros. I have set my Excel VB Book options to: Option Explicit double clicked the sheet I was using and under general inserted the code, closed Ctrl+Q, saved workbook. When I reopened and tried to use it all I get is “I'm Back!” nothing else happens. One time it actually ran and reopened but it appeared that the workbook was saved before closing because it was still sorted. What I need is it to completely unsorted as it is when I first open it so I can start over.
I have a macro already made to protect all the worksheets upon leaving. One thing I have noticed as I go into these workbooks is it opens on whatever page you left or saved on. I would like it to open up to the first sheet, which is my master.

Current Workbook: Sheet 1 is a report and the rest of the "Sheets" are data tables. I currently manually identify completion in the "Data Table" Sheets in column U by stating "Yes" or "No" (Row 1 in all data tables is just a Heading Row no data). I go into each row of the data sheet initially say "No" in column U and color the cell with a "Yellow" fill to make it easy to identify. When the item is finally complete I go into the data tables add a completion date in column T, change column U from "No" to "Yes", and fill that column U cell from Yellow to White.
I am looking for a continuous macro that works for all sheets except "Sheet 1" and when there is no completion date in column T then column U is "No" and color filled Yellow but when a completion date is added in column T then column U changes to "Yes" and fills White.
Some dependents that I feel might affect the code would be that Row 1 of each data sheet is headings so that row will not need to be affected by the code and that the code will be only used if there is a tracking number in Column A otherwise the entirety of each sheet would populate like that because initially their are no completion dates in column U. Also dates are in this format in column U "MM/DD/YY"
I have the following strange problem. A simple macro 'ActiveWorkbook.Close' causes excel to crash if I use it with a button on my sheet (a form). When I run the macro via developer > macros > run
the macro runs as expected. Even if a run the macro with alerts (thanks to jproffer) the problem persist.

How to rectify the error.
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.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'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 need a code that will stop a Macro if any cell in column 3 equals #N/A All i have right now is:

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??

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
