When the user scrolls the worksheet (using a scroll wheel, or the scroll bars) I would like to have a VBA-code triggered, but in Excel 2003 there is no "VBA-event" for scrolling...
Is there any way of trapping that a scroll has happened, even if the selection didn't change?
I have a worksheet with a column("A:A") of about 1000names. The user will start at the top and work down, entering stuff into other columns for some ofthe names. My need is: How do you automatically scroll, with code, say row 48to the top of the worksheet when the user reaches row 48 with?.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an excel sheet embedded in a Powerpoint presentation, but I have the problem that users are editing the sheet and accidently or unknowingly scrolling around. This results in the window resizing itself when the exit the object and messing up the appearance of the presentation. Is there a way of easily preventing scrolling (either via VBA or other)? I can obviously hide the scroll bars but that does not prevent the use of the mouse's scroll-wheel. I have also already hidden all unused columns and rows so that they cannot oversize the window.
View 5 Replies View Relatedable to keep a chart stationary while scrolling through a worksheet entering data. A few points:
1) 'Freeze pane' wouldn't work for me since the chart is too large and I'd prefer to have the data sheet unfrozen for easy perusal.
2) I saw mention of opening a separate window with the chart in it, while having the workbook window aligned next to it. I don't know if that can work, but I'd also prefer to just have the chart on the worksheet and stationary.
When I limit the scrolling area in a worksheet, and it works there and then, when I close and reopen the whorkbook, the limiting does not work.
This is how I do it:-
I Right-click the sheet tab for the sheet which I want to place a limit.
In the resulting Context menu, I choose View Code. The VBA editor appears and asks for the password to view the code. I keyin the password
I then set in my limit as B2:O25
Then I close the VBA Editor and display the worksheet where I try and I find it working.
I close and save the workbook.
When I reopen the limiting has disaapeared!
I am attempting to set a range of cells (say c5:h25) that can be scrolled through horizontally whilst the rest of the sheet remains frozen.
I'm trying to set this so the scrollable range will automatically expand horizontally as user data is added to the last (h etc) column.
I have a workbook with 8 sheets, one of which is the "main" sheet that holds all of my user data for logins at my job (I'm in IT). There are about 4300 users and 23 fields for each user, so there are 4300 rows in the sheet. Other sheets in the book are important, but not as much as this one.
The workbook has a total of over 1000 lines of VBA code right now, as I'm building a tool that finds users, adds users, modifies users, etc. (I know, Access would be smarter for this, but for some reason they want me to use an xls). Most of this code works with the sheet that I'm having the problem on.
This ONE sheet has seemed to disable the functionality of the scroll wheel, and I can't use Page Up or Page Down while in the sheet either. Also, if I select cells with VBA (Sheet2.Range(<range>).Select), it will select the cell, but it will not draw focus to that cell on screen (the sheet will not move at all). The other 7 sheets in the workbook have all regular functionality.
This just started happening a couple days ago, and I've been building the code for about a week, so I'm wondering if it's something in the code...?
Does anyone have any idea what might cause this?
I have assigned some value to the id of the some cell.
now i have cut the cell and pastes into some other cell.
now the situation is id value is same for both the cell(cut and pasted).
As soon as i cut i would like to assign some new id value programtically to the cell which is being cut.
How would I trap the escape key being pushed while in a comment box?
In case user accidentally modifies comments box and they do not wish to save the changes. Pushing escape will save changes, which I do not wish to do.
This thread is closest code I found, but I do not know how to adapt it for the comment box.
Errror trapping with Application.Dialogs(xlDialogOpen).Show
The error trap does work when there is an error, but it also runs at the end of the code when there isn't an error... I'm not sure what I've done wrong. When I test with data that is correct, it still runs through the code when it gets to the bottom. Have I put the error trap in the wrong place?
I have put in bold the section of the code with the error trap.
Option Explicit
Const TargetDB = "Group Life Pricing Tables v0.1.accdb"

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

I am trying to find some solution on frequent errors , that come up when one copy, or drag formulae.
Sometime the error doesn’t appear on surface, but after digging you realize that some formula is not pointing to correct
cells.
I want to create a macro which will do following things :
1. It will go to each cell in the selected range, and compare the cell’s formula with that of the cell on its right and left.
2. If the formulae are not similar it should change the color of that cell.
Basically, I am trying to catch logical errors. However I don’t know how to approach this problem? Is there any in-built functionality in Excel that can do this task ?
Is there a simple way to trap mouse and keyboard events in Excel, only within a VB loop, and then return to normal behavior after exiting the loop? That is, I want to know if a key is pressed (and what key) or the mouse clicked and not have it affect the spreadsheet. I don't want the key pressed to type into the spreadsheet.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using the calendar control on a form of mine, which i believe requires ms access to be installed to use(from what ive read). This is fine as most of the PC's it will be run on have this installed.

How can I trap this error ? Ive tries whe the workbook opens, and when the form initializes but it just brings up that error
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a user form with a TextBox (TextBox1), the user enters a filename and presses CommandButton1, this then opens the file. I have set an error trap so that if the file does not exist a MsgBox prompts the user to re-enter. So far so good, however if the error trap operates any further files entered are declared as non-existent even if I know they exist. I thought this would be quite easy but once again VBA bites me back!!
here is my code
Sub CommandButton1_Click()
stPath = ThisWorkbook.Path
stFilename = "Retention" & "" & TextBox1 & ".xls"
stFullname = stPath & "" & stFilename 'completes full path of for TextBox1
On Error Goto Errorhandler: 'go to this if file does not exist

I am using a TreeView control and need to determine if the user clicked on the Image or the Label of a node. The Hittest function can return either a TreeViewHitTestInfo object or a node. By default it returns the node. I'm not quite sure how to trigger the return of a TreeViewHittestInfo object, but at the moment I'm even struggling to make VBA aware of that class. A simple statement like
Dim info As TreeViewHitTestInfo
returns an error saying that TreeViewHitTestInfo is not defined.
Workbook A has VBA code. The VBA code opens a collection of 2000 workbooks. The workbooks are processed one at a time, with Workbook A opening Workbook B, do something, close Workbook B, get next workbook. Sometimes Workbook B has some kind of access issue that results in:
"[File Name] cannot be accessed. The file may
be read-only, or you may be trying to
access a read-only location. Or, the
server the document is stored on may
not be responding.
RETRY ... CANCEL"
If RETRY is clicked, the process returns the same message. If CANCEL is clicked, the process is crashed, Excel is closed, and all data processed is lost. What is the VBA syntax to programmatically trap this condition so it can be processed in an orderly manner?
Am using a email notification macro but want to error trap that "a program is trying to send an email on your behalf" thing. What i would like to do is if the user says "no" then a Retry/Cancel msgbox comes up with the prompt "Please select yes to enable a submission notification to be sent on your behalf" then if they select retry, the macro is re-run, if they select cancel, then only the latter portion of the macro is run.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've created a worksheet with split panes. I'm able to scroll through my data vertically and horizontally while keeping one area of th screen stationary. Here's my question:
Is there a way to limit the movement of my scroll bars so that it can't move beyond the viewable portion of my worksheet? In other words, I want the scrolling to end when there is nothing else to see but a field of empty cells.
way of getting two sheets to scroll together, so when I scroll one window the other one moves too? Some text editors have that future (IIRC UltraEdit does)
I can't find a scroll event in the windows code to trigger a macro to run itself.
I can get around it by using a selection change event which would restrict me to moving around with the cursor keys/Pageup/down, but I've got 15,000 to review regularly in a short space of time and it would be quicker by mouse
[code/]Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)

...but I cant figure out how to scroll it down the list to the NextBlankRow-20 such that the previous 20 lines of data are shown to the top of the screen.
Is it possible to use a macro that do the following:
scrolling, only the used range + 1
So if the used range is B2:D12 then the scrolling is possible to row 13 and column E
I want to return the value of E2 from sheet, "ALL INFO" and paste it in B2 on my current sheet. When I scroll this formula to right, I want the next to be the value of J2 from sheet, "ALL INFO," etc.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm looking to disable the horizontal and vertical scrolling in 1 worksheet
Am i able to do this?
I'm having a problem working with a protected document made by another user.
The sheet has a vertical split at column F, and when I use the arrow keys to scroll right beyond this line (ie from column G and beyond), when I reach the last column (BB), it just loops straight back to the beginning (column F). This also happens in the same direction.
How I can stop this happening, so that it just stops when it reaches the end of the document?
There doesn't appear to be any coding on the sheet.
I have a spreadsheet where I want to put notes in, but I don't want to re-size the cell as it will ruin the format. The amount of information will vary from entry to entry, each entry into the sheet will have its own row and within that entry I want to dedicate one column's cell for that entry's notes. Is there anyway to make a macro for a scroll bar for individual cells so I can scroll though the text entered in that cell. I have tried a text box but the text overflows once the amount of text over fills the text box.
View 4 Replies View Relatedi want to know whether there is any way to make an MouseWheel-Event in VBA (Excel 2003) and send it to the scrollBars of my UserForm?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want is a form that has three different partsof it. Each part containing checkboxes, a spreadsheet, textboxes and labels. But I only want to display one of these parts at a time, depending on what the user clicks.
I know I could write code to move everything into the visible part of the form but that would be messy. I hoped I could find some way to instead move the visible part. Like if I had scrolled.
An example. Say the visible form is 100 high and 100 wide. When opening you see from the width 0-100 and height 0-100 (pixels or whatever those things sould be called). Upon pressing a button I instead want to see width 101-201 and height 101-201.
I am sure this has been asked -and answered- before.
I need to select a cell, e.g. C1000, and change the view, so that I see C1000 on top of my spreadsheet.
range("C1000").select clearly does not accomplish what I want.
What is the vba code to disable scrolling Up or down?
