Test If Sheet Exists Syntax
Nov 12, 2009I want to check if a worksheet exist, and if it does I want to skip the part of a macro that creates it, else I want to create it.
Here's what I have so far:
I want to check if a worksheet exist, and if it does I want to skip the part of a macro that creates it, else I want to create it.
Here's what I have so far:
After going though the archives, I could not find how to test for an entry that does not have a sheet to be pasted into. I have a series of worksheets with the month-year for tab labels. The format for these tab labels is ("mmm-yy"). My code will place the new entry into the first available row of the sheet with the same month-year as the entry. I can enter any item with any date in any order and as long as there is a sheet with the same month-year, the entry will be placed into the correct sheet. Temporarily, when I need to add a new month, I click on a CommandButton that uses this code (located in a general module) to make the new sheet:
Public Sub AddNextSheet() ...
Got most of this code from the web and I can't get it to work. The part I added was the array and loop bit. As a test I specifically renamed one of the sheets in the file to be something NOT in the array, but it still goes through like it exists (I.e. shexist=True). What did I miss?
Dim wsname As String, shexist As Boolean
myarray = Array("Statement of Values", "Vehicle", "Driver Info.", "Revenues by Discipline", "Revenues Geographically", "Employee-Payroll Info. CDN & US", "U.S. Payroll", "Employee-Payroll Info. FOREIGN")
For i = 0 To WorksheetFunction.CountA(myarray) - 1
shexist = False
On Error Resume Next
wsname = myarray(i)
shexist = CBool(Len(ActiveWorkbook.Sheets.Item(wsname).Name))
On Error GoTo 0
If shexist = False Then
MsgBox "The worksheet '" & wsname & "' does not exist in this file or has been renamed." & _
vbCr & "Please check the file and try again.", vbExclamation, "Consolidate"
GoTo THEEND
End If
Next i
How can I test in my VBA wether a named range (with a scope of sheet) exists on the active sheet?
Code:
If "EmployeeEmail" exists on the active sheet Then,
xxxx
Else
yyyy
End If
Using Excel 2010.
is there a way to test if a list exists on a sheet? I'd like to do something like this:
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow to see if a SeriesCollection that has been named exists so when the corresponding toggle button it clicked it turns on or off the correct corresponding dataseries.
When I create a series I use something like:
[Code] ............
Where the range "tblJim[Quizes]" contains the quiz scores which are the data series pointes and "=Data!$C$6:$C$35" has the respective dates.
When that toggle button is clicked I need to test if the SeriesCollection "Jim" exists so if it does I can delete it and if not, create it.
Also, as much as I hate to multi-subject but usually do anyway, I am wondering if there is good example of doing the same ends by a different strategy - a chart with everyone on it and by applying data filters to the dataset I would turn on and off people's data.
Is there a way to test (from Excel 2002) whether a specified file (not necessarily an Excel file) exists on my computer? I could specify the complete path.

I created a new file that has need for all the old file's ranges plus a couple more, and I want to use the same macro for both. So on the first file I just want to say, if these other named ranges are there, go ahead and do his other thing.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm creating a macro to select, modify dimensions and place shapes on a excel sheet. (I'm talking about pictures insered and stocked in a specific sheet of my workbook)
When the users insert a new picture he has to set a name for each of them.
A combobox contain the choices, when an item is selected, the macro identify, size and place the corresponding picture.
But I have a bug if a shape doesn't exist when I try to select it :
Sheets("fiche de controle").Select
'select the sheet with the pictures
ActiveSheet.Shapes(Item_old).Select
'select the shapes "Item_Old"
Item_Old is a variable corresponding to the picture name.
If the user made a typo, I have a bug.
Someone knows how to test if the shapes exist to display a meesage if not ?
Or somethig to avoid this kind of bug ?

I am currently using a macro to copy a sheet from a closed workbook in to my current workbook. However this copying is based on the sheet name. At present when I run the following code

When I want to change some outputs of the macro without changing the syntax, it display an error mesage while runing the macro. It says Else without If. Which is quite disturbing because the Else was not creating any problem before. Here is my macro before I changed the conditions (this one work nicely)

wb.Activate
If Not SheetExists(wba.ActiveSheet. Range("C1").Value) Then
MsgBox "overall doesn't exist!"
Else........................................
Code:
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
Dim createsheet As Integer
createsheet = MsgBox("Do you want to Create a Sheet for Uncontrolled Discharge?" & vbNewLine & "NOTE: if the sheet already exists, you cannot create a sheet with the same date - select NO", vbYesNo, "Caution")

ErrorHandler:

Right now...it will pop up the error message but it will still create a "template" sheet with the suffix (2), (3), etc... instead of canceling the create new worksheet operation.
I am trying to determine Long Term Gain (LTG,) Long Term Loss (LTL,) Short Term Gain (STG,) Short term Loss (STL,) or No Loss nor Gain (NGL)testing two cells (A1 and B1)and setting a third cell (C1) to the text LTG, LTL, STG, STL, or NGL depending on the results of testing cells A1 and B1.
A1 represent a number of years and B1 represent gains or losses (negative)in dolars.
The way I see the logic is as follows:
If cell A1 or cell B1 are either one of them equal to 0, then it is neither a Gain nor a Loss (NGL.)
If cell A1 is greater than or equal to 1, then it is Long Term; else, if A1 is greater than 0 and less than 1, then it is Short Term.
On the other hand, if cell B1 is greater than 0, then it is a Gain; if B1 is less than 0 (a negative number,) then, it is a Loss.
I need to find (if it is posible in Excel) one formula to test the two cells for posible outcomes:
If A1 = 0 then C1 = NGL
If B1 = 0 then C1 = NGL
If A1 >= 1 and B1 > 0 the C1 = LTG.
If A1 >= 1 and B1 < 0 the C1 = LTL.
If A1 < 1 and B1 > 0 then C1 = STG
If A1 < 1 and B1 < 0 then C1 = STL
Macros and Often I find it challenging to locate the last row and/or column on my worksheet.
Any specific syntax, command or function I need to use?
I have the following code to transfer data to another sheet, but there are 2 issues with it:
1. I want to just paste the values, but every code I have tried has had object or syntax errors that can't seem to be fixed
2. If I run the macro a second time, it overwrites what was pasted the last time the macro ran. My code looks like it should look for the next empty row in the range, but it doesn't seem to do that.
What is the correct syntax to do the above. Here is the code:
Sub Update()
Dim c As Object
Dim rngA As Range
Dim cc As Object
Dim rngAA As Object
'Check every cell in the range for matching criteria.
For Each c In Sheets("OpenGen").Range("F9:F208")

I'm trying to write a macro that selects cell A1 in each sheet within the book. I've written the following code:
Code:
Sub a1()
For i = 1 To Sheets.Count
Sheets(i).Cells(1, 1).Select
Next i
Sheets(1).Select
End Sub
However, it produce this message: "Run-time error '1004': Select method of Range class failed."
If I slightly modify the code to
Code:
Sub a1()
For i = 1 To Sheets.Count
Sheets(i).Select
Cells(1, 1).Select
Next i
Sheets(1).Select
End Sub
It works fine. I'm curious why this happens.
Before closing a workbook I want to check if a sheet called temp exists. If it does then I want to delete it.

I got the following code to create new worksheets based on the values in column "a". However, I don't know how to check if the new worksheets to be created already exist.
For k = 2 To 10
x = range("a" & k).value
Worksheets(Worksheets.Count).Copy after:=Worksheets Worksheets.Count)
Worksheets(Worksheets.Count).Name = x

I have a userform that copies a sheet in the workbook, renames the sheet & creates a hyperlink to that sheet using the following code.
Private Sub cmdEnter_Click()
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
If ActiveCell.Column <> 1 Then
MsgBox "Go to column A to before inserting a row"
Exit Sub
End If
The problem I have is I can't figure out how to incorporate error checking if the sheet already exists.
What I would like is a message stating that the sheet exists and allow the user to make required changes on the userform.
i would like to write into a macro the ability to check and see if a sheet named "Pie Chart" exists, and if it does delete it without being prompted whether or not i want to delete it.

I am writing a macro for a my team. I will distribute the .bas file then have them run it. I don't know what their individual sheets in their workbook are called so I need to ask them. Grab various columns from that sheet, check if they have a sheet called data import, then put in the columns in order in data import.
I have:
Code:
Private Sub checkForSheet()
Dim sh
On Error Resume Next
sh = Worksheets("Data Import").Name
If Not Err.Number = 0 Then Sheets.Add.Name = "Data Import"
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
to check if Data import is made
Then
Code:
Sub prepareData()
Dim SCMsheet As String, TSE As String
Dim DISh As Worksheets
SCMsheet = InputBox("Enter your SCM Sheet name in entirety.")
If SCMsheet vbNullString Then
[code]....
But it doesnt stop scmsheet is not in the workbook, and the values arent put in.
I need a line of code that will display a message box if a specific sheet does not exist. eg. If sheet called "ThisSheet" does not exist, then display the message "Not here". I've been struggling with this one!

When making a copy of a sheet within the same workbook, I receive several messages "A formula or sheet you want to move or copy contains the name . . ."
How do I identify and remove these names?
How do I prevent new ones from being generated in the future?
How can i find if a named range exists in a sheet using VBA?
E.g.: I have a named range called test that houses 4 numbers in four cells. Using
Code:
Dim rtest As Range
Set rtest = Worksheets("sheet1").Range("test")
.
.
.
.
rFoundCell = _
Cells.Find(What:=rtest, After:=Range("a1"), LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:= _
xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False)
Won't work. Run - time error 91 occurs.
On Sheet1, Row 2 I have my columns named January-December, which correspond to the names of the other 12 sheets in my workbook. I want to test and sum the same range of cells in each sheet by simply coping and pasting the formula. I am using INDIRECT and SUMPRODUCT, but is there a better way? It seems to have caused the sheet to run slowly. Perhaps it's just the amount of data. Here is an example of the formulas I am using:
=SUMPRODUCT((INDIRECT("'"&B2&"'!$B$3:$B$200")=$A$2)*(INDIRECT("'"&B2&"'!$C$3:$C$200")="Yes")*(INDIRE CT("'"&B2&"'!$E$3:$E$200")))
This gives me the intended result. B2 in this case is January. C2 is February and so forth.
I am trying to write some code that will copy the worksheets from one workbook (wkbSource) to another (wkbTarget), but I need it to maker sure the worksheets being copied from wkbSource don't already exist in wkbTarget. If they do exist, it just skips and moves to the next worksheet. Here is the code I have already, I thought that by adding the On Error Resume Next to the code it would just skip it, but for some reason it is still copying the first duplicate workbook, then it skips.
Code:
Dim wkbSource As Workbook
Dim wkbTarget As Workbook
Dim WorkbookName As String
WorkbookName = ThisWorkbook.Name

I would like to add a visual indicator to my sheet that checks if a specific file exists in the same directory as the active workbook.
The filename format would look like: "something.invoice.(mm-dd-yyyy).xlsm"
The macro would check the =today date, calculate the previous month, and check to see if a file named that exists.
