Two Tasks, Same Macro? (put A Value In A Single Cell)
Nov 1, 2009I want to put a value in a single cell - A1 is going to be (say) 5.

View 5 RepliesI have a worksheet that runs a query from an external data program. I have made a macro that refreshes the worksheet and this works ok. Is there a way I can get Scheduled tasks to automatically update this workbook eg overnight. I do not want to leave the workbook open either. Can task scheduler open the workbook, refresh the data, then close the workbook again.
View 9 Replies View RelatedOver the weekend I had to look at 220 strings of numbers, some strings with as much as 20 numbers and determine if the numbers represented red, green, blue, or yellow and how many of each color from a parent list.
I did it all by hand. After getting help here from JBeaucaire on my tally sheet, which I successfully recreated with their guidance, I thought I might ask this question. How would one go about creating a macro that would when it seen a certain number, it would put the color in the column immediately to the left, and the number of colors in the column immediately to the left.
1st - Need a macro to change a range of cells colours based on a single cell having a value greater than 0.001. ie. cells A1 - G1 need to change to grey based on cell F1 having a value greater than 0.001 entered in it?
2nd - Also a macro for deleting the text contents of cell C1 based on cell F1 having a value greater than 0.001. Therefor if cell F1 has a number greater than 0.001 it changes the colour of celss A1 - G1 and also deletes the text in cell C1?
I have been trying to find a macro that would allow me to keep a running total in a cell by adding a number to that cell and the same cell would display the sum of the numbers entered. {i.e.} If cell a1 has 0 in it and i click on that cell and put 3 in it would display 3 if i added 2 to it it would display 5 and so on. I need it to do this for about 182 cells on one page.I found this macro that runs automatically every time and works great......But only for one cell so far..."D3"...Ugh!!! I need this macro to work for the following range of cells "colums d thru j from row 3 down to 28 in each colum. Each cell is an individual. There are 182 cells total that each need this macro to work ...all on one page
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
Static dAccumulator As Double
With Target
If .Address(False, False) = "D3" Then
If Not IsEmpty(.Value) And IsNumeric(.Value) Then
dAccumulator = dAccumulator + .Value
Else
dAccumulator = 0
End If
Application.EnableEvents = False
.Value = dAccumulator
Application.EnableEvents = True
End If
End With
End Sub
As you see the macro includes cell D3 only, I have made several attempts to include more cells but have failed.... I tried like this
If .Address(False, False) = "D3,E3,F3,G3,H3,I3,J3,D4,E4...and so on" Then
I have tried ....If .Address(False, False) = "D3:J3" Then
and I have tried ....If .Address(False, False) = "23Rx7C" Then
I can make it work for cell d3 but not the others. Will I have to repeat this code for every cell?
I'm trying to write a macro, and the first thing I need it to do is paste a value into the currently selected cell. This value, though, will usually be multiline. So when I try to do it now, it pastes into the selected cell and the cells below it (one for each line of the pasted value). When I'm pasting manually, I avoid this by pressing F2 to edit the cell first, and then pasting. But how can I do this using a macro? Is there a type of paste command that will insert the multiline value from the clipboard into the selected cell?

Is it possible to this through VBA.
I have an excel document with multiple excel sheets(sheet1, sheet2...etc), now every sheet contains a cell "total".
Now I want to copy the row containing "total" from all the sheets into another sheet called "report".
I have searched and think I have found what I need to create Outlook tasks from my Excel spreadsheet. I'm hoping that someone here can help me pull it together into something that will be usable in my project tracking spreadhsheet...
I try to keep track of milestones... these milestones are listed in column B of my spreadsheet and are in rows 10 through about 105
For each of my customers I then keep 4 columns D, E, F, G - H, I, J, K - L,M,N,O - etc. Each group of 4 is a different customer....
The customer's first column (D, H, L, etc.) is a Due date of the Milestone that is found in column B.
The second column is a check box that I use to indicate when the milestone is complete
The 3rd column is the completion date
The last colum is just a filler space that helps to separate each customer.
What I would like to do is insert a button at the bottom of EACH grouping of 4 that when pressed would look at the first column for the customer group and for ANY Milestone that has a DUE date process the stuff in the VB below to create an OUTLOOK task for each item that has a DUE date. (It would be conceivable that as it stepped through each row for a customer group of columns that I could have it create 90+ Tasks in Outlook.
A couple of additional things... in row 110 for the first column of the customer I have a DATE or a blank. So for example in D110 it might be blank or a date like 10/29/2007. If it is blank then when I press the button it would loop through ADD the tasks for each row with a due date. If row 110 has a DATE I would get a popup indicating that the tasks are already in OUTLOOK and that they were added on whatever the date is in row 110... This is kind of the safeguard that I don't get the same group of tasks multiple times by pressing the button by mistake.
I want to use excel to update the tasks in outlook. All I have is a due date (from A2) and a task (from B2) Here is the code I have got so far
View 2 Replies View RelatedIm having trouble with getting a macro to run at a specific time and day (Every Thursday at 7PM).
Here's what I have done so far..
1. I added my excel file to the task scheduler
2. created a class module and place the code below into it.
In testing the workbook opened but it asked if i wanted to enable or disable the macros - how do I get around this? And it does seem to kick off the macro (create_all).
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
If Hour(Now) = 1130 And Weekday(Now, vbMonday) < 7 Then
' TheNameOfYourCurrentProcedureHere
create_all
If Workbooks.Count = 1 Then
Me.Save
Application.Quit
Else
Me.Close True 'save the changes and close the workbook

I have a worksheet where I calculate the duration it takes for an operation. the format of the worksheet is as folows:
The worksheet is composed of Start and Finish times in this format: 2009/06/02 5:32:19 , so for example,
- Row1 of the worksheet will have "Start" in column H1 and the start time in column B1
- Row 2 of the worksheet directly below has the "Finish" time, with the Finish time information in column B2
So with the help of excelforums I was able to implement a macro to extract the finish time cell found in row B2 and offset it to C1 and do a simple calculation to get the duration in minutes and display it in column D of the same row as "Start".
I have 10 columns (1 through 10) called TASKS and 2 rows for each task
Row 1, has a 'start date' in the form of 1/1/2010
Row 2, is duration
the duration of each task may or may not overlap with other durations of other tasks.
how can i find out the total duration of ALL my tasks.....without any overlaping.
any formula that can calculate this? ( i need one number at the end!)
I'm working on a project that will will have varying tasks & estimating the total duration to complete these tasks.
For example:
If estimating that the min-project will take 90 days & I have 17 tasks, how can I distribute the 90 days evenly amongst the 17 tasks?
I scheduled a task to open excel and when it does (at a certain time), a little sub is supposed to run (couple minutes later) via the OnTime Method located in the Workbook Open Event. There is one weird thing though....
1. When Excel opens automatically through Scheduled Task (and you see the clean white sheet WITH gridlines), Sub does NOT run (that is, my file is NOT even opening).
2. When I myself open Excel manually WITHOUT opening a new workbook (in other words, in front of you there will be grey area without gridlines), Sub runs perfectly (in other words, my file opens automatically and Sub performs whatever it is supposed to do).
If I have, in one cell (call it D1):
EH,DR,HU
and in a lookup table on another sheet:
A B
1 ED T
2 EH F
3 DR G
4 HU H
5 SE E
6 YU E
I need to be able to lookup the values in D1 on the table and return the values in column B to a single cell (say E1), also comma separated...
eg...
F,G,H
I have a project network spreadsheet shown below and in column BT I need to identify each non-critical path task (value in column BS is "N") that has a critical path task (value in column BS is "Y") as one of it's immediate predecessors.
Predecessor tasks are listed with commas separating them in column G. They are also separated out into columns H through Q for another function in the spreadsheet.
Note: Task ID's can be numeric or text
*BGBSBT11Task IDPreceding Tasks * * * * * *(comma seperated)CP?
*12Start*Y*13aStartY*14baY*15dbY*16ebNX17cbNX18fcN*19g*N*20h*N*21ihN*22je,d,i,g,fY*23kjY*24Finishk**250***
it seems to be possible to integrate to some extent with the Outlook Tasks function....
Is it possible however to 'update' a given task, and have it linked somehow to my workbook project? (Maybe using some sort of reference?)
I was given the following formula by Domenic some time ago that I use along with VBA code supplied by Fin Fan Foom to open do a lookup on a closed workbook:
=If(ISNUMBER(MATCH(MIN(If( Date=D2,If(ABS(Time-E2)<"0:30:30"+0,ABS(Time-E2)))),If(Date=D2,ABS(Time-E2)),0)),INDEX(Contact,MATCH(MIN(If(Date=D2,If(ABS(Time-E2)<"0:30:30"+0,ABS(Time-E2)))),If(Date=D2,ABS(Time-E2)),0)),"")
Everything works fine, until I attempt to…
- cut & paste a block of cells, or
- do a SaveAs, or
- change a worksheet name
The formula will no longer function after performing any of these tasks (the cells go blank), and I have to close the workbook without saving to preserve the original workbook functionality. All other tasks, including even importing of different files into the workbook have NO negative effect.
The formula uses an “INDIRECT” named range. Sheet name changes are reflected in the named ranges, but any change of names somehow causes a malfunction (no sheet names are referenced in the VBA).
I thought that the large lookup workbook (40,000 rows) may be a problem, but even after deleting most of the data and retaining only a few rows, the problem still remained.
After the formula cuts out (after performing the above tasks), if I open up the lookup file, then the lookup will work again, but if I close the lookup file, it will stop working.
I doubt the problem is in the VBA code since IT WORKS, and besides, I have other simple VLookups formulas that also uses the same process (and VBA code) and they continue to work just fine when that one formula gives out. The only thing I can think of is that the complexity of that one formula may be an issue.
Anyway, I the original thread is long, so I’m starting a new one here. The original thread is here (Domenic’s formula, pg 7; FFF’s code, pg 8):
Dedicated Cell To Choose Lookup Table
I am trying to drag a numerical value down (X4-X10) but I need it to repeat two rows in between, simultaneously keep the numbering in sequence only after the repeats 2 rows in between, and perform the previously mentioned 2 tasks any row in a column. So far, I have to manually enter or when I select cell X4 and X5 together ( having a value of 1 and 2 respectively) and drag, the value does not repeat 2 rows in between and does not keep the numbering in sequence after the 2 rows.
At Present:
X4 1
X5 2
X6 3
X7 4
X8 5
X9 6
X10 7
I need to have
X [nsubscript1, or nsubscript2, or nsubscript3... nsubscript10000 ] 1
X [nsubscript1, or nsubscript2, or nsubscript3... nsubscript10000 ]+1 1
X [nsubscript1, or nsubscript2, or nsubscript3... nsubscript10000 ]+2 1
X [nsubscript1, or nsubscript2, or nsubscript3... nsubscript10000 ]+3 2
X [nsubscript1, or nsubscript2, or nsubscript3... nsubscript10000 ]+4 2
X [nsubscript1, or nsubscript2, or nsubscript3... nsubscript10000 ]+5 2

I have a 2000+ rows to manually input and hence it is not practical!.
I have had some help with this (thanks!) but am stuck.
Can someone add to the code below and make it so that multiple tasks, with multiple assignees, can be created from a range of cells, such as:
Column A Column B
Row 1Task SubjectAssign to
Row 2GV LP for AZJohn Brown
Row 3GV LP for COJohn Brown
Row 4GV LP for ILSuzy Smith
Row 5GV LP for INSuzy Smith
Row 6GV LP for KYSuzy Smith
Row 7GV LP for MNSuzy Smith
Row 8GV LP for MSBob Barker
Row 9GV LP for NCBob Barker
Row 10GV LP for NJBob Barker
Row 11GV LP for NMBob Barker
Row 12GV LP for NVBob Barker
Row 13GV LP for NYBob Barker
Row 14GV LP for OHBob Barker
Row 15GV LP for SCBob Barker
Row 16GV LP for WVBob Barker
(Sorry, it didn't translate well. The "GV LP for AZ" is cell A2, "John Brown" is cell B2.)
Here is the code I have so far:
I'm trying to auto input names from my schedule into dailytasks for my servers. Sometimes the amount of servers on a specific day changes(i.e Mondays 3 to 5 servers and Friday - Sunday there is 4-6 servers on) and times could change also as of now it works with
=VLOOKUP("6:00",AC$25:AJ$46,8,FALSE)
Not sure how to set up lookup value and return the name
I am using excel 2007. My issue is i have a front sheet that I want to list all my tasks due within five days of the day of the month the spreadhseet is opened.
All the tasks are on two different excel sheets though and one of them i update with different tasks 2-3 times a week.
I am trying to set up a spreadsheet which automatically calculates the start and end dates of project tasks, by looking at the order in which tasks need to be completed. I have attached a spreadsheet to show what I am trying to do.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI would like to create a menu representing "tasks" where an amount of "time" can be designated per option for my employees to select and fill. I would like this information to then be tallied elsewhere so I can keep track of our efficiency.
So far, I've created a table where a "time" input is nested beside each "task" drop down menu, I would like these inputs to be added up underneath the same category on the budget tab.
For example: If I work Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday doing tiling.. I would like the budget to reflect those accumulated hours (throughout the week) nested under "tiling".

I have a macro which was developed with the help of our Experts.
I need all that macros to be in 1 button would that be possible.
I have tried this but not able to make it.
I want a macro which can detect empty cell in rows and can delete whole row in which that empty cell is .and want to shift rows up. Macro should start searching empty cells from Column B meaning that It should not delete cells in Column A.
And I want this function in all sheets except parent sheet at position 1.

I used the macros found at http://www.contextures.com/xlSort02.html to sort columns. This solution works fine, the invisible rectangle is really good to my interests. Here's how it works: macro #1 creates invisible rectangles at the top of the columns used, at row 1 where the headers are, and assigns a second macro to the rectangles. This second macro sorts the data table based on the column whose rectangle is clicked. The problem is that this solution is for data tables, it sorts the entire table and I want to sort the one, single and only column where I click the invisible rectangle.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am wondering if it is possible to use a formula or IF statement within a macro to add a single row at a time if a cell shows as False? For example, if the value in column AD is False, I want it to add a single row under that row that has False. However, if the value in column AD is True, I don't want it to add a row and skip to the next record. I need it for approximately 500 records.
