Strange Thing Only On One Computer Running This XLS

Feb 4, 2009

Copy of the scaled down Workbook are enclosed. Password is "j". Sheet("Final Schedule") is one of 11 sheets in the Workbook. Range("a10: BE120") is copied from another Sheet and pasted.

ISSUE BACKGROUND: Entries into cells are Data Validation and a drop down on each cell. In cells C15, 16, 17, 18 or O15, 16, 17, 18 First time the Sheet is opened: user has no problem if they select a D from the drop down.

ISSUE:
But if user types in D and hits enter key, contents of G10: M10 (merged cells) is copied into that cell. Any thoughts on where to check or what settings to check? It only happens on that one computer.

Macros Cannot Be Found, Running On Another Computer

Sep 21, 2007

I have sent an Excel application to a colleague's computer. When she tries to access/run any of the macros (assigned to buttons), Excel displays and error inidcating that they are not found.

Looking under Tools/Macros they are there.

On my computer the a macro name is for example "Submit", preceded by the full path and file name. On the colleagues computer they show up as "Module5.Submit" (with the current path and filename), where the module number is the actual module number displayed in the VB Project.

Is there a VB setting that is responsible for including the module number and how would I turn this off?

Selecting Certain Thing For Pivot Table

Dec 8, 2011

I'm creating a pivot table using visual basic. for 1 of the titles in the column ("Organization") I only need to Select "Telford", "Kaiserslautern" & "Morocco" out of several other options. The code I've got at the moment only tells the pivot table not to show the ones I dont want as per below:

Code:
With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").PivotFields("Organization")
.PivotItems("Printers KL").Visible = False
.PivotItems("Printers TE").Visible = False
.PivotItems("Valls").Visible = False
.PivotItems("(blank)").Visible = False
End With

Not all of these options are always in there so the macro crashes when it can find 1. Is it possible to de-selct all options then only select the 1's I want rather than the other way round using visual basic?

Getting A Cell To Say One Thing Based On Other Cells

May 6, 2007

I have a worksheet that does a running total. It also correlates with another worksheet. But, for this one B4 through B23 is added together on B25, then on B27, B25 is subtracted from B3(original balance). In the cells B4-B23 there is a formula to pull information from another worksheet. I am wanting to incorporate a formula with that for if the total that is in B4 through B23 adds up to the original balance (B3 or B25) then it will say PAID.

I have ...

Speed Up My Worksheet. The Entire Thing Relies On Now()

Nov 7, 2009

trying to speed up my workbook, because all of the formulas depend on time and the now() function. It takes forever to add/change anything.

Here is a general description of my worksheet. It's for a game called tribal wars (online browser mmo). You have towns around you, which create resources to plunder. This resources build up over time, thus I need to use the now() function in basically every formula. Each row finds the distance to that location, the time since last attack, the estimated resources built up since the attack, and the number of troops to send.

If only there was some way to update now() only every 1 to 5 min instead of every time I hit a key...

Strange INDEX Phenomena?

Oct 8, 2009

INDEX(Sheet1!$F$2:$F$10,0,1) returns #VALUE!
INDEX(Sheet1!$F$2:$F$100,0,1) returns 110 (e.g.)
As Both index have zero(0) for its row reference (row_num) I would expect both formulas to return #VALUE! (or even #REF!)

Strange Characters Equal EOF

May 28, 2006

I made a userform that spits out 'logs' in a more readable easy to understand. It basically shoves everything into a nicely organized list box.

I have a load button that if pressed accepts .csv's

It works perferctly for practically every type of .csv that contains these logs however 1/100 times the logs contain korean or chinese characters which cause the program to crash.

I gone through some debugging and I found out that the characters that cause it to crash happen to equal the EOF character. So not only does it spit an error on that line, it stops loading anything after that point.

Here is my CheckFileSize function that runs first to tell me how long I should make my list.

Private Function CheckFileSize(ByVal TempFileName) As Double
Dim TempData As String
Dim SizeCount As Double

how to do this besides loading it into a worksheet first?

Today Function Works Strange

I have a column, where i want to calculate the difference between today and another date/or viceversa. The problem is, that in the first two cells, it calculates it well, but then, it shows #VALUE and when I press to see the "calculations steps" , it shows "29/09/2009"-40049. It turns the today function into a number. Why?

Referencing To CSV File In Strange Format

Oct 21, 2009

I am working on an excel dashboard to display life information about energy consumption.

there is currently a bespoke syatem which does this but we need the dashboard to be changed so the job has fallen to me.

Energy usage across the site is recorded in a spreadsheet (automatically) every half an hour and is saved in a folder named CSV data, however the files are saved in a format which i assume is something for the current package: *.ew7

I can open and view the data by clicking "open as" and selecting excel.

I can reference to this data from another excel spreadsheet (dashboard) whilst they are both open it will update.

However when i close all spreadsheets and open just the dashboard it tells me that the links cannot be updated.

I need a solution or a way around this so i can reference from one workbook to another.

Has anyone had any experience of this kind of thing? can anyone offer a humble analyst a bit of advice?

I was not able to attach the file here (as its in the ew7 format) but i have uploaded it to rapidshare for anyone who wants to take a look...

Strange Characters Pasting To Textbox

Dec 20, 2006

it is a very simple marco. It contains a textbox input within a user form. The only problem I have is, when I use CRTL-V to paste some text into the textbox, it has a wired character attached to the end of the text.

for example, I highlighted an email address (ex. abc@abc.com) from an email, use CRTL-C to copy, and I make sure that there is no space after the .com, and after I pasted using CRTL-V to the textbox, a wired character, like a reversed P sign..... very much like the carriage return in MS Word, would anyone know how to avoid that or disable that extra character?

Drag The Entire Thing Down And Be Able To Make It So That It Is Hidden (the Cell Is Blank)

Oct 23, 2009

First, I can get the balance formula, and when I drag the square at the bottom right, I am able to drag the entire formula down...I want to do that. However, when I drag it down, the number keeps popping up. I was wondering if there is a way to be able to drag the entire thing down and be able to make it so that it is hidden (the cell is blank) unless the debit or credit cell in the corresponding row is filled. Also, if possible, I want to be able to drag it down to infinity, so it can go on forever, so that there is no need to always drag it down when I add more things in it. I am attaching what I have till now.

Increase In Decimals Returns Strange Result

Jul 21, 2006

I have discovered a strange thing about excel and it is driving me mad and ruining my project.

Basically, If i enter the number 97.4 into cell A1 and then 97.165 into cell B1 and then enter the formula =A1-B1 into cell C1 i get the answer 0.235. Which is correct.

However, when you increase the number of decimal places to 30 the answer that is returned is 0.234999999999999000000000000000.

This calculation result seem to fluctuate wildly depending on the primary numbers in cells a1 and b1. Very rarely have i seen the full 30 decimal places without a bizarre result like this.

Maybe it has been too many years since i was at school and that i am confused with my numbers and that there is a real easy answer to why this result is returned.

As i said it is ruining my project that i am working on. Can anyone help? Why does excel do this? Is there a way to stop this happening? My project relies on this answer to be correct. Is there a way to force excel to stop doing this?

Macro Worked For 2 Years, Suddenly Started Giving Strange Results

Jan 20, 2009

I have a VBA macro that I pieced together* a couple of years ago to help with a pretty simple task. We have two excel sheets that pull in information daily from different sources. The macro copies and paste values for the worksheet, then 1) saves a copy of the values only worksheet with the current date, 2) resaves the values only worksheet as a .csv file that is then manually uploaded into our database.

Format Cell To Always Insert Specific Thing When Specific Name Is Typed?

Apr 4, 2013

Is there a way to format cells to where - when you type in a certain person's first name, it will insert something entirely different?

This has seemed to have happened on a computer at work.

In Excel, when I type in "Martha" then tab, or otherwise leave that cell, Martha changes to "Cool"

If I type in anyone elses name - it stays that name. But if I type in "Martha" .. it changes to "Cool" with the bullet and the word Cool.
