I am trying to write a macro that can copy the shading from another cell for me automatically. I would like to look for certain text strings within a serial number, and when found, copy that cell's shading in another cell.
I am using INDEX, MATCH to copy the corresponding value needed, but that doesn't give me the shading...
My pallet lost color-coding - if I hover over each little scare it displays the names for the colors and if I click on them they color the cells with the right colors, but the palette itself lost the visual display of colors except for 8 colors: black, blue, red, magenta, yellow, cyan, and white.
I use color-coding of cells a lot and I find it difficult to work without visual clues. At least the hover-support allows me to get the work done, but with difficulty.
I am trying to keep two columns in my workbook "in-sync". I have two ways of representing this particular part of my data, and depending on the situation I would either edit numbers or edit the associated strings. Example: In one of my columns I have integers. In another those integers can be represented as Strings. Here is an example of the relationship:
integer string
0 C0
1 C#0
2 D0
3 D#0
4 E0
....
12 C1
13 C#1
etc................
I am trying to sync two spreadsheets. Say for example. I have Intl and finance spreadsheets. My header is row 1 in both the files.
1) I want to copy missing fields in header to desired spreadsheets
2) I want to copy the data as well.
I am trying to track price and status changes from week to week.
If a # appears in columns A, D, G simultaneously, then change in price (plus or minus) needs to be calculated.
If a # appears simultaneously in columns A and G, but not in D, then column H should read "SOLD" for those entries.
If a # appears simultaneously in columns D and G, but not in column A, then column H should read "NEW" for those entries.
The desired results (shaded yellow) need to be sorted in chronological order using column G.
This is a small excerpt from a much larger data set which includes 100s of rows and the number of rows vary each week....
I have two sheets: Sheet1 and Sheet2. I want the Column A in sheet 1 to look exactly like Column A in Sheet 2 so I enter to A1 in Sheet 1 ='Sheet2'!A1 and drag it down. However, when I enter a new row -let's say between row 4 and row 5 - in Sheet2, then A5 in Sheet 1 keeps the value of old A5 (new A6) in sheet2. I, on the other hand, want it to have the value of new A5.

I'm looking for a code to have all the sheets in my workbook scroll together and adjust their zoom level. For example, if I zoom to 70% on Sheet 1 and scroll down to display cell J93 in the bottom left corner, I would like Sheet 2 to also be at 70% and have J93 be at the bottom left corner when I click on it.
Preferably, I would like for the sheets to adjust accordingly only when I click on them and for the macro not to have to loop through each one whenever I change one sheet (my workbook has 52 sheets for weeks of the year, plus summary sheets, so it would be very draining for it to loop through each).
I've already found a macro to have the scroll match across sheets as I adjust and click on them, but I was hoping for a code that would incorporate synchronized zoom into it as well.

I've created a Excel workbook with VBA code to synchronize an Access database between a laptop and a server. One of the fields in the database is a shortcut to a jpg for each record. (The Access stuff is not too important here)
Now I'd like to add the ability synchronize the photos between the laptop and the server; so people who use the server can view the photos added by the laptop and vice versa.
Something like:
Code:
For each [JPG] in [LaptopFolder]
If not [JPG] exists in [ServerFolder] then
filecopy [LaptopFolder][JPG], [ServerFolder][JPG]
end if
next [JPG]
That code wouldn't work.
i have one main sheet, and two resource sheets. In main sheet i have resource and project Matrix and in top of the cell i can select the week number. in other sheets, i have week and project matrix for resource. Now what i want is if I enter some details in main sheet, those values should be automatically posted to Resource sheets.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am in the process of reformatting an excel workbook to act as a review tool for different factors in a process. Part of my redesign includes the use of coding that creates different cell colors based upon the cell contents. The new workbooks will be used to handle existing data for this year. I have developed a process macro to open an existing workbook and copy and transfer the original data worksheet into the newly formatted workbook. The data gets transferred to the new worksheet and the resulting workbook is renamed and saved, Heres'' the rub... the newly saved workbook is missing all of the coding for the worksheets... apparently this is a MS bug.
Has anyone figured a workaround for this. One thought I had is to open both( new and old )workbooks and rather than move/copy , i would transfer the data using cell references.
Trying to format cells b9 through b 24 and cells c9 through c24 to change from white to a light grey color by clicking the mouse button once. so one click white, another click grey.

I have search other forums they all lead to changing the code, I did this already. just copy pasted a code I found but all cells were selected to change a bright green.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to update a workbook with a new look and want to change the cell color based upon what the cell color currently is.
I'm having problems with the code that I created. I just can't seem to get the syntax correct for the code.
For the code below, my Range of A5:D5 is just a test range where each cell should change colors. When completed, my range will be much greater.
Code:
Sub ChangeColors()
Dim Cell As Range
For Each Cell In Range("A5:D5")

I have read the instructions for conditional formatting and I don't think that is what I need. I have 10 diff year 2005,06,07 etc. I want each cell with with a diff year to turn a diff color. Like I want 2005 to be red and 2008 to be blue.
I'm trying to have change if the date on it is passed "now()". I am already using the 3 conditional formatting fields and need this one and another one. Here are 2 problems I seem to be having.
First - the code below only works if I change the date on the cell. I want code to either work with Worksheet Active or any other way so the user does not have to redo the date’s everyday.
Second - a record might have conditional formatting already. Is it possible for the target cell in this code can show this color while the rest of the row shows the color of the conditional formatting?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim icolor As Integer
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("G1:G2000")) Is Nothing Then
Select Case Target
Case Is <= Now()
icolor = 39
End Select
Target.Interior.ColorIndex = icolor
End If
End Sub
I need to change the color of a specific cell when conditions are met in a different cell and it seems like it may be beyond the scope of simply applying conditional formatting. What vba code would look like in proper syntax to make the following statement true. IF cell value Q4 is >=cell value S4 AND cell value R4 is <100 Then cell Q4 turns red and IF cell value Q4 is >= cell value S4 AND cell value R4 =100 then cell Q4 turns green. it may also be useful to know that the "cell values" in this example will be dates and not straight values. this may be possible to do using conditional formatting, but i cannot find a formula that works.

We have a workbook with over 20 worksheets, each sheet with one or more tables in it. Several people use the workbook and we have decided that when someone changes a cell, they should mark the changed cell by filling it with blue using Format Cell. We have then nominated one person at end of each week who will check all the changes made during the week and either approve or reject them. So her task is to find all the blue cells, check them and then take the shading off.
What I would like to do is to create a macro to help her. I would like the macro to automatically identify all the blue cells in the workbook and give her a list of these cells. I wonder if someone could give me direction on a couple of things:
1) The command in the macro that would return whether a cell is shaded blue
2) The way in which I could cycle through all the content of each worksheet. I'm thinking worse case I would have to write instructions to go to each sheet, and then do an outer loop to go through each row, and an inner loop for each column (and the number of active cells varies by worksheet) -
Within the Workbook events there is a "Before_Print", however I also need something like "After_Print" which does not exist (as far as I can tell).
I have several rows of data which alternate colors. When I print it I want to take out the fill (so as to save ink) - which I can do in the "Before_Print" event. [No problem.] However, once it is done printing I need to restore the alternating colors, but I cannot think of any event or trigger which would enable this.
I have thought through several things and the closest thing I can think of is setting up a timer. But there is of course no way to now how long to set it for. [Before/After Save also has the same "issue".]
i am using a set of VB codes that was kindly provided by "dr". Please refer to the link below.
Highlight-Select Start Date To End Date
However, I am facing problems on how to delete or unfill the cells that are "coloured and filled with booking reference name" (i.e. being booked by the user).
In another words, currently, once a booking is made, the blank slots would be coloured to red and would reflect the customer name in those slots (with the use of dr's VB codes).
Comes the next day, if that booking needs to be cancelled, would the user be able to "delete" that booking that was made (i.e. uncolour that slot plus remove the customer name) without having to automatically go unfill the cells and delete the text in the cells?
I was wondering if it would be possible to filter by two consecutive cell values or colors. For example if I have in "A"
X1 (red fill)
X2 (blue fill)
X1 (red fill)
X3 (xx fill)
X3 (xx fill)
X1 (red fill)
X2 (blue fill)
X4 (aa fill)
I want to be able to filter so that the consecutive cells for x1 and x2 show up or red followed by blue.
So when I filter it will only show rows 1 & 2 and 6 & 7.
X1
X2
and there would be many of these values in the spreadsheet.
so what will happen is that the number of rows will continuously increase as the groups of data (Labeled Group #) increases. The data within each group will vary from time to time so some groups may contain only one line while others may contain multiple lines. I have included an attachment that illustrates what I'm trying to achieve. When data is entered in Column A under "Q," the adjacent empty cells in Columns B-F (labeled "R"-"V") will turn red. This is the part I have (i.e. Group 2).
