Unable To Set ColorIndex Font Property?


why this won't work or at least a way to accomplish the same thing. Basically, I'm trying to hide unneeded data by making the font the same color as the cell:

Unable To Set Formula Property Of Series
I went through a lot of threads in this forum, although there were a couple relating to the same problem am facing, they didnt solve my error .. so here's my question again ..

When am trying to delink charts , i get an error stating "Unable to set the formula property of series class".

The code is as follows :

Sub DelinkChartData()

Dim iCtr As Integer, iChars As Integer, SH As Shape, iPlotOrder As Integer
Dim nPts As Long, iPts As Long 'Holds the total no of points in the chart
Dim xArray, yArray, sChtName As String, sSrsName As String

Unable To Set The Orientation Property Of The PivotField
I want the data field to change to a different field when a command button (cmd_view) is clicked. So when the command button has a caption of "Toggle to Feeds", the code changes the field from Sqm to Feeds, and changes the caprion on the command button to "Toggle to Sqm". When this is next clicked, the fields are swithed over, and the command button caption changes relative to it.

The code I have written is below:

The problem I have is when the code changes the view from feeds to Sqm, it works fine, but when the code changes from Sqm to feeds, it crashes out in the true part of the If statement on the code line ".orientation = xlhidden" with the error "Unable to set the Orientation property of the PivotField class".

As the code for the change of view is the same, apart from the field names, I am at a loss on what is the cause.

I have tried to record a macro to see if the field names appear differently, but they do not.

Sub Tog_pivot()

Dim Toggle As String
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Toggle = Sheet5.cmd_View.Caption

If Toggle = "Toggle to Feeds" Then
'switch view from Sqm to Feeds
Range("F12").Select
' hide existing field
With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("Pivot_forecast_old").PivotFields("Sum of Sqm")
.Orientation = xlHidden
End With
' Create & display new field "Feeds"......................

Unable To Set The Xvalues Property Of The Series Class
For the last day I have been getting the following error: "Run-time error '1004': Unable to set the Xvalues property of the series class."

The archetecture of the marco is sound being that I have used this methology in another macro and it works correctly every time. The XValuesand Values range are also correct and I know this because I had the macro select the data cells and it does this correctly as well. The data for simplicity at the moment has no empty cells or abnormal data. The data cells are all filled with some kind of data. For the XValue Range the data would look something like "2070087 4/27/2007" and the Values range is filled with a number between 0 and 100. What I can't figure out is why it crashes with a valid establish range. I highlighted the lines it crashes on in read, they are near the bottom.

Unable To Set The Visible Property Of The Worksheet Class
I've been using the following code successfully for years. Today I would get the error 1004:Unable to set the visible property of the worksheet class. All my searches came up with someone not realizing they had protected the workbook. As you can see, the first thing I do before trying to set the worksheet visible is to unprotect the workbook. In frustration and on a lark I tried .Sheets("items").Visible = True and it worked. These kind of intermittent errors in Excel VBA are very frustrating. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Pivot Chart Error: Unable To Set The _Default Property Of The Pivot Item Class
I have created quite a nice little macro that;
drills through a lot of key figures, updates a pivot chart and copies the chart to powerpoint.

However it crashes on one particular data set every time with this error:
Run-time error '1004':
Unable to set the _Default property of the pivot item class

The code where the debugger stops is the last line below here.

lngKpi = Sheets("Helpfile"). Cells(lngRow, 2)
Sheets("Charts").Select
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("DK").Activate
ActiveChart.PivotLayout.PivotTable.PivotFields("KPI # (overall").CurrentPage = lngKpi

I can manually change the pivot chart to the keyfigure it crashes on and thereby workaround the problem in the macro. Also it works for more than 50 other keyfigures without problems.

Change The Font.colorindex Of The Cell In Column
I have some code that runs through about 5000 rows of data looking at duplicates for column A. instead of deleting the duplicate rows, i change the font.colorindex of the cell in column a so that all cells containing xx are one color, and all cells containing xxx are colorindex+1.

Since i have about 5000 rows, colorindex limits itself to 122 (i msgbox'd each time and this is the last number i got before the subscript out of range).

Is there anyway around this, or is there a better way to pickout duplicates. remember, i can't delete duplicates, i need a way to manipulate the duplicates data once i pick them out.

Unable To Get The VLookup Property Of The WorksheetFunction Class...
I am trying to look at column at of two different workBOOKS and then when a match is found take the value from column D in workbook two and copy it to the corresponding row in the current column of workbook one.

this is the code I'm using and I get that unable to get the vlookup function. I thought maybe it was because not all of them will have matches so it could return an error if it is trying to return empty, so I put int on error resume next, and it ran through but never brought over ANY data, and there ARE matches and data to be brought over.

destRng is the range in the current column(that i just inserted) on the active worksheet that we will be putting the new info into. srcRng is the range in column A on the other workbook that the numbers are being compared to. src is just an integer

Unable To Get The Match Property Of The Worksheet Function
I'm trying to find the occurence of a date in a range.

Here is the code I'm using:

Windows(todaydate1).Activate

For Each cell In range(Cells(top73, 3), Cells(bot73, 3))


z3 = DateSerial(Year(cell), Month(cell), Day(cell))

Windows("Cash Flow " & todaydate & " PM.xls").Activate
Sheets("Commitments").Activate

However the code stops right on the q3 line where the match function is located. The problem is that I'm getting a Run Time Error 1004:

"Unable to get the match property of the worksheet function class"

This would lead me to believe that the match function is not working. However, in Excel, it does work. Even when using the cell from the other Workbook, it works.

All the dates which appear to be dates are indeed formatted as dates.

The range is good. I've used the immediate window to verify the address and the values of the other variables in play.

?range(Cells(toprw, 2), Cells(botrw, 2)).Address
$B$26:$B$49

Set Control Visibility Based On Tag Property
I have a userform which uses the tag property of the frame to determine whether a frame is visible (and hence the controls that reside within the frame). A frame contains three combo boxes, and six text boxes. The tag property of the frame matches the number of frames that are visible on the form, so that if the user selects five frames, frames 1 through five become visible and for all other frames visible = false. A frame contains all the data for a single entry. There can be up to fifty frames/ entries that are visible on the form depending on the user selection.

I want to use the visibility property to do two things: first the combo boxes are filled from an array after the user selects the number of frames (or entries). I only want to fill the comboboxes where the frame is visible. The second thing is that I have a function which uses the data from the text boxes and combo boxes as required arguments. Since these are required arguments, I will get a data mismatch error if I try to call it and the controls are empty. Therefore, I only want to call the function if the frame which houses the controls is visible.

Public Sub Visible1(Entry As String)
Dim ctrl As Control
For Each ctrl In UserForm2.Controls
If TypeName(ctrl) = "Frame" And ctrl.Tag <= Entry Then
With ctrl
.Visible = True
End With
Else
If TypeName(ctrl) = "Frame" And ctrl.Tag > Entry Then
With ctrl
.Visible = False.............

Set Variable To Forms Control & Get Value Property
How do I reference a spin button from a variable that I set.

e.g

Dim objSpn As Object
Dim y As Integer

Set objSpn = ActiveSheet.Shapes("spnWCDate")

y = objSpn.Value

This doesn't work, but hope it explains what I want. It's so I dont have to write the whole object name each time I reference it.

ADDED: I've just noticed that this doesn't work even i do reference the object with the full name. I copied this from a forms spin control that I was using, why can't i store the value of the spin button in a variable?

Set Font Color In VBA Script
I have a script that sets font color. I think it uses something called "myColor" to define the color, and then pulls the color from a palette of 57 colors.

But how can use the "color" property instead, so I can have a broader range of colors? I can't tell how it would fit into my code. "MyColor" doesn't even show up in Excel's help file.

Here is the code. How can I adjust it so that I can use, like, "RGB 0, 0, 255" instead of color 32?

Or how would you code it so you could set color that way?

Private Sub WorkSheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Target.Column < 8 Then Exit Sub
If Target.Column > 9 Then Exit Sub
Dim myColor As Variant
Select Case Target.Column...........

Set Font Size Depending On Length Of Text
When a number is entered in cell S3, it triggers formulas throughout the worksheet to populate the it with information from another sheet. If the length of the text in B6 is greater than 80, the font size for B6 only should be 8; if the length of the text in B6 is less than or equal to 80, the font size for B6 should be 10. Regardless of the length of the text in B6, the font size for the rest of the sheet should not be changed.

I tried the following
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address "$B$6" And Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
Dim cnt As Long
cnt = Len(Cells(6, 2).Value)
If cnt > 80 Then Cells(6, 2).Font.Size = 8
ElseIf cnt < 80 Then
Cells(6, 2).Font.Size = 10

Change Colorindex Within A Range Of Multiple Cells [ Alternate Method]
I have tried to go around the long way to achieve this but came up with pages of pointless code .... I know there is a better way I just dont know enough about VB to do it myself ... And I know this is EASY for many :-)

--------
Cell ranges h11 to as11 are a totals row.
If the total is 0, colorindex is set to vbpatternnone, if >= 1, then colorindex is set to vbpatterngray. Easy right ? I just dont kn ow how to do FROM/IF/DO range loops...
--------

Details:
The code in worksheet_SelectionChange will contain the following:

1: From range h11 to as11, variable1 = application.interior.colorindex of the cell.

2: Check if the cell is >=1 or <=0 ....

3: If >=1 then set application.interior.colorindex = vbpatterngray. Go to #5.
' (This inserts a pattern over the original color of the cell)

4: If <=0 then set application.interior.colorindex = vbpatternNONE
ALSO set application.interior.colorindex = variable1
' (This clears the cell pattern and returns it to original color)

5. Repeat steps to clear cell pattern and restore color / or insert pattern for all cells from range H11:AS11

6. End sub

Unable To Sort Correctly
I have a column with a value resulting from a fairly complex formula:

I will not include the formula, but basically what it does is a number of calculations including subtracting dates, that is

TODAY'S DATE - A GIVEN DATE (provided in a different cell)

That means that, either manually or automatically, those values are constantly recalculating (with every second that goes by, that value changes).

And the number of values/cells to update is not few: about 1100.

Here's the problem.

When I press SORT, Excel seems to be absolutely incapable of sorting that list correctly. The values are completely and randomly out of order.

I wonder if it could be due to the fact that given that those values would be constantly changing, there would be a conflict with the commands

sort
update

I need to sum all "orders.price" on sheet 1 when,

1. SaleDate is within the two reference dates(basically monthly)

2. location field in sheet 1 contains the particular string of text

Using the filter function, I've narrowed down that the results of these are not correct at all.

The actual sales are consistent through the months, so each month should have a number in it, yet the worksheet results in almost all of the fields equaling zero.

Unable To Retrieve My Files
I recently formatted my laptop harddrive. I'm running windows XP Pro. I backed up all files to my 500GB WD external drive. All is fine except that I'm now unable to retrieve my excel files and no one has been able to really help. These spreadsheets are very important to me.
