I am unable to view my tabs in excel - the tabs are there, they just can't be clicked on per say. I have double-check the tools option and verified the correct box is check to view tabs, however, I can't view the tabs. I tried to color a tab and it colored it red, but I can't really view the tab. I can see a red line underneath the directional arrows when I am working on that particular worksheet, but again, I can't view/click on the tab.
View 9 RepliesI have been presented with a rather odd thing with Excel. We have a wookbook with six worksheets in it. When the first of worksheets is displayed, all the other tabs "disappear". The whole bottom tool/navigation bar is no longer displayed. How can I get it back?

View 13 Replies View RelatedI have created some drop-down boxes on a tracking spreadsheet. Last week they were they today they are gone.
I went in and cleared the cells and re-created by dropdowns. I did remember to click, in-cell dropdown, but when I click on the cell it is not there.
Now if I right click on the cell it does give me an option to choose from a drop down. So my options are still there but why are they not appearing in the cell when I click on it.

you know that part at the bottom toolbar which tells you when you select two or more cells what the sum/average/max/min is? Mine's disappeared.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWas working away on one of my spreadsheets and the black square that surrounds the cell you click on has vanished. i.e. if you click on cell A1, you normally get a black square surrounding the cell A1 to let you know that you are on it. That black square has disappeared.
It seems to affect any spread that I open but if I open a new spreadsheet it is there.
I have used this file extensively for months. I inadvertently clicked something this morning that made the file "disappear". I can see the file in its folder and open it. But, once opened, I do not see any of the tabs and the name of the file does not appear at the top. I did ALT F11 and can see the tabs in the VBA but I'm missing a step to make the tabs reappear. Since I don't know what I did to make everything disappear,
View 2 Replies View RelatedJust curious as to what could make a custom menu or custom button disappear from Excel upon opening it. I had created a custom menu with personal.xls macros in it for someone here a while back, and today it was completely missing.. although the Personal.xls folder still existed with the macros.
I am quite sure that they did not manually remove the menu by right-clicking and selecting Customize and dragging back the menu items...
Column A disappeared and didn't come back. I even arrow over to the left margin, but the furthest it goes is to column B. How can I get my column A back?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've created a sheet with a number of drop down lists using the validation menu.
Whilst working on the sheet the lists have disappeared! The validation options are still there and refer to the correct cells that have the correct details in them, but when I click in the cell that should have the list in it I don't get the down arrow to click that shows the list.
I've also tried creating a new list in another cell but that does the same.
Hopefully i've just changed a setting that stops it working and I can unchange it - but I don't know what's caused it.
When I go to excel ==> ALT + F11 ==> Tools ==> Reference ==> I can't seem to find "solver" anymore. My code was using the solver module, and now my code does not work. I can't find "solver" to check it.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a chart of type 'Line' that shows a KPI item measured quarterely. It has a single series that references the 'data' worksheet. Since it is measured quarterely, the months in between will have a null value. It has been working to date, but since I have added the data for the latest month, the series line has disappeared. Only the markers remain. The series line is formatted in a vivid blue.
I can't attach the spreadsheet because its 152KB. One thing of note is that when I select the series line, not all of the markers get highlighted as expected
From time to time, the status bar in excel 2010 is not showing (I don't mean the information is not showing, I mean the bar is not there at all). In previous versions I would go to view>status bar...
how do I get the status bar back in excel 2010?
My boss has passed me his laptop that he had been designing a spreadsheet on (Excel 2000). The 'forms' toolbar has completely disappeared. When I right click the area where the toolbars are normally docked it lists every one except forms. clicking customise appears to list a few more menus - but no sign of FORMS. If I click 'new' in customise and type in Forms for the name it tells me 'a toolbar named 'forms' already exists' (so where is it!)
how I can get the toolbar back -

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a simple macro that cycles through the sheets in a workbook, and if the sheet's codename matches one of a defined list, some of its data is added to a summary sheet.
The macro works exactly as intended, but a strange thing happened yesterday: some data was missing from the summary sheet because one of the sheets was being ignored. This sheet is named 'MCP' on its tab, and has codename Sheet8.
Here's the strange part: on stepping through the code, cycling the sheets, I noticed that the sheet icon, name and codename had disappeared from the Microsoft Excel Objects folder in the Project Explorer. When the loop got to the sheet in question
Code:
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
Debug.Print ws.Name
Debug.Print ws.Codename
The above code displayed its name (correctly) as 'MCP', but its codename was blank; the sheet was therefore skipped by the code because the codename had to match against a defined list.
While I was pondering this, and doing some web searches, the sheet then re-appeared in the Project Explorer and everything worked again.
My question is this: is it likely to be due to the workbook being shared? I know that workbook sharing in Excel is often discouraged, but this is a simple workbook only used by a maximum of three users (two of these had the workbook open at the time the issue was reported)
I've changed the code so that the sheet name is inspected in the event that the codename is blank, which should guard against the issue provided sheets are not deleted/renamed.

I have been trying to get Excel (2007) to change the colour of tabs to match other tabs in the workbook
Using this code I get the colour code of the current tab
Code:
x = ActiveSheet.Tab.ColorIndex
But when I use this value in a procedure like this:
Code:
ActiveSheet.Tab.ColorIndex = x
The tab is a different colour!
I have a summary page that includes the titles for each tab within the excel 2003 workbook. I want to use the names of the tabs in the summary page and create it into a formula to lookup fixed cells within the various tabs. Sorry for not uploading an excel doc but I was at work earlier and the thread did not load for some reason, so I am reposting it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm using Excel '03SP2 on Win 2000sp4. I believe I have a case where old tabs originally written in Excel ' 97 behave differently than new tabs in the same workbook, which is saved in 2003 format.
Specifically, the formula ="PLAN" & budyr-1 where budyr is a named range on a different tab containing 2008 . This formula yields PLAN 2007 on a new tab and #VALUE! on an old tab.
How do I get Excel to update the old tabs so that they behave as Excel 2003 tabs?
Is there anyway to have tabs within tabs? Right now there are only two layers...workbooks and worksheets within workbooks (tabs). Is there anyway to have more than two layers?
So right now:
1) Workbook
a. Worksheet
b. Worksheet
Can we get to:
1) Workbook
a. Worksheet
i. ?
b. Worksheet
i. ?
ii. ?
No?
I am trying to run a VLookup across 19 tabs. The formula and result are below
=Vlookup(2255099,INDIRECT("'"&CENTERS&"!A5:R395""),13,0) returns a #VALUE
When I evaluate the formula, the result is:
=Vlookup(2255099,INDIRECT("'"&#VALUE&"!A5:R395""),13,0)
Does the #VALUE where CENTER was mean there is a problem with my Named Range?

I am having some trouble with a handy formula I learned over this forum and its application between two tabs.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook where each tab represents a 'base.' You can select which base to view by selecting an option from a drop down box on a menu page.
The data for each base is of a confidential nature so I would like to password protect each tab so that it asks for a password BEFORE the page opens. I don't think Excel has the functionality to do this unless I make the pages 'Very Hidden'?
