I've been trying for a while now but I can't do it so I was wondering if anyone could do it:
1) I am trying on the "customer detail page", in the " date due" column automatically update with the book/DVD.
The database has been shortened drastically to be able to be able upload
OK, two files attached in the zipfile, pricelist-half.xls and pricelist-full.xls
The background is that i exported a file from our warehouse system so we could update prices and re-import it. That is the pricelist-half.xls
After our staff had spent a few days working on it, it came to light that (as the name suggests!) its only about half the products that should have been exported that are on the list.
Hence the second file, pricelist-full.xls which as its name suggests is the full
product list.
What I need to happen, to make this as painless as possible, is somehow for the items/rows that are on the full list, but not on the half list to be inserted to the half list but also have a yellow background for their rows so they stand out clearly.
I have several tabs (worksheets) representing purchases for a specific year.
There is one tab (worksheet) that is a Summary of all purchases for all
years. How do I get Excel to automatically update the Summary worksheet
anytime one of the other worksheets are modified?
I keep track of returns for my company and I am pulling a CSV file with all of the information on it.
I want to be able to format the info and create new columns for info I enter in to the sheet, and be able to import the updated CSV file into my already formatted sheet.
The part that I am wondering about is, after I import my first CSV file(sheet1) do I need to create another sheet(sheet2) and format sheet2 and have it pull the info from sheet1, then when I update workbook1 the data will update in sheet2?
Or, is there a way to just import the new data a single formatted sheet that I created from the old data and have it just add the new data without messing up any of my formatting?
I have one work sheet (worksheet #1) that everyone in the company uses. With this worksheet they submit orders to my department.
When I receive it (worksheet #1) I have a macro built in so that all i have to do is click a button and the sheet get's logged onto a certain workbook (workbook #1) on the appropriated tabbed sheet.
On my log workbook (workbook #1) I have two tabed sheets "2005" and "2007", and all of the worksheet#1's go to the next line on "2007"
On occasion a sales person will open up an old worksheet and the macro will log it onto "2005".
I want to create a macro for (workbook #1) that goes something like this:
If any files attempt to write to sheet "2005"
do not allow or (False)
move line item to sheet "2007" to the next open line.
Here is my scenario:
4 step process or more?
1)I have a text file (with delimiters) that I want to be copied over to an existing workbook (because of the header)
2)So now I have a temporary workbook that includes the header and the data from the text file. I want this temporary data to be transferred or copied to a sheet in another workbook(s), wipe out previous data and store the new one. Save the workbook(s) and close.
3)Close temporary file. Don't save.
4)I want this process to be automated -- run it daily everyday at say, 6:30 in the morning.
I have work sheet where certain cells are updating constantly
the cells are D7, D10, D13, D16, D19, D22....... all the way down to D60
Now the values in these cells are changing every few seconds..... what I'd like to do is track the direction the cells are moving in a seperate sheet.
Lets say the cells displayed the following values for example:
D7=2.5
D10=3.4
D13=5.9
D16=8.2
D19=11.6
D22=13.8
D25=16.1
all i need to write is a code which syncronizes with my update button, which i don't know how to write....whenever i click the update button, all my files will be updates, and at the top elft of the screen would show the time and date of my last update.

View 9 Replies View Relatedwhen I manually delete a row or column in my worksheet - the macro target addresses do not update.
For example, I have a Target.Address of B5
If I delete column A from the worksheet, I want the macro Target.Address to update to A5. Currently the Target.Address remains B5 even though the cell I am interested in has now moved to A5...
Here is my worksheet
Sub Macro1()
If Range("B5") = "Yes" Then
Rows("6:10").EntireRow.Hidden = False
Else
Rows("6:10").EntireRow.Hidden = True
Range("C6:C10").ClearContents

Here is my workbook

I feel like I am losing my mind here. I have a basic SUM calculating a bunch of cells. I have done the SUM from th autosum feature as well as, just typing it is (=SUM(B1:b16)), It totals up the cells correctly, but, when I change a value in one of the cells, the sum is not updating? I have never seen this happen...Does anyone know what could be causing this?
View 3 Replies View RelatedIn my Excel 2007 I have downloaded an Add-in (Webiress data) which allows me to receive RTD of a particular security which I then use to plot a chart. In a day there are around 15,000 changes in prices of that particular security.
The problem is that the RTD misses many prices when the market is fast and also it frequently (around 20 times per day) stops updating and then I have to clear the cell where the RTD is updated and it returns to normal, updating the prices for few minutes and then stop again.
A friend of mine told me that I have to change one Registry in Excel to tell Excel to check for a RTD every 2 miliseconds. I found this suggestion a bit strange and I have no idea how to do it.
Has anyone ever come across a RTD issue like this?
I contacted the server provided (webiress) and they said there is no problem with the updating of RTD (real time data) and the problem should be on my side.
Is there a way to insert a cell/row, and add data to one page/tab, and have it automatically insert a cell/row and add the data on another page/tab?
Excel 2003 is the version I am using.
I update graphs/charts everyday. I've been looking at ways of updating a lot of charts in 1 action.....
What would the formula be to have the range of the chart (ie =Data!$BS$1188:$BS$1201) to get the row numbers, not the row, from numbers entered elsewhere on a data sheet (ie =Data!$BS$1188:$BS$1201)
As a lot of the time I use the same number range but on different rows and sheets.
I have created a series of numbers using a column 'n' and 3 cells for Start value, End value and increment, this is thwe formula: .....
View 9 Replies View Relatedif it would be possible to update all the links in a workbook at once. For example, say I have a worksheet which is linking to a file named something like 4-6-08 (1) and 4-6-08 (2) and so on with the number in brackets being from 1-21. Now say I have the same thing for 4-7 and 4-8 and 4-9. Now I want to change the links to point to 4-10,11,12,13 instead of 6,7,8, and 9. But still there are 21 copies of each sheet. Is there any way to change all the sources at once so all the 4-6's could become 4-10's and 4-7's to 4-11's?
View 12 Replies View RelatedI have made a series of of udf's and used them without a problem in my worksheet. One of the variables used by udf's, " commission " is a named range on the "vrs" sheet in my book. All was working fine, all the udfs updated whenever i changed the value of "commission" by directly entering a new value in the cell referenced by "commission" I then wrote sub to call an input box wich collected a value for commission and put it in the ranged cell. Since then, of the 4 columns of data that commission acts on only 3 now update automatically. The recalcitrant 4th column will only update if I select the cell, place the cursor anywhere in the formula and press enter.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have written some code that populates a list box with data, and have allowed data to be deleted from the list box if a line of data is double-clicked, with the data below the deleted row being updated to remove the empty row, etc. All works fine except that, when I force the list box's 'selected' line to be the one below the last entry (as if you were selecting the next empty line with the mouse) and the code completes, you cannot click on the form and move it around, nor can you access any other of the form's controls, until you click inside the list box.
Apparently, forcing the line selection in the list box (to simulate someone clicking on a row in the list box) is what's causing the problem. I need to force the selection because the number of data lines in the list box is more than can be shown in the list box, therefore I need a method to automatically scroll the list box to show the next available line in the list box.
I have the folowing vba function that i use to check the existance of files but when the workbook is refreshed, the formula doesn't update. It's only updated when i double click it's cell.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have links in one workbook to a series of other workbooks. Using Excel 2002. I am making selecting changes in the source workbooks and not automatically recalculating the workbook. I know what is changing and am just recalculting that by clicking on the cell and going to the end of the formula and pressing enter.
The problem is that when I go into the master workbook to which this data is linked, it seems unwilling to update the data - and it sounds like this may be because I didn't recalculate the entire workbook.
Is this in fact what happens? Any way around it. Recalculating the workbooks in which the source links are found would take lots of time and I'd rather avoid that.
I need to calculate value in a column (expiration date) based on other two columns (Approval date, Plan Type) for each row in a table.

I am using Excel 2007.
I have a large spreadsheet and new data is added periodically.
I have several columns of data associated with a description & date.
The data associated with each description is unique to that day.
I want to archive the older desciption data after I add newer description data.
Column B = date of the data
Column E = description (phrase)
How do I remove duplicate older rows of description data from my main spreadsheet (keep the newest descriptions rows) and save the older rows of data in a archive sheet?
My sheet has many columns from A to BU.
I have about 220,000 records with many duplicate Descriptions in column E. Each Description record has a date in the Date column B.
Records are sorted by: Description A to Z
then by: Date Newest to Oldest.
Here is an example (not actual sheet):
I highlighted the duplicate Description records in these examples that I want to update and archive.
I want to delete the older Description records from my main sheet so that only the duplicate Description records with the newest date remains like the example below.
And the older duplicate records that are removed from the main sheet I would like to save to a new sheet so that I can save a history of the Description records.
I have a userform that displays data related to a given stock in textboxes and lets me manipulate other data with command buttons. it works fantastically, except the dynamic data on the sheet does not update dynamically in the textboxes.
i have a combo box from which i select a symbol, data is pulled from the sheet and populates the text boxes. that is accomplished with a sub. there are 800 symbols. i mention that because i can't just set the ControlSource to a specific cell. I tried several different ways of referring to the cell, using .Cells and vlookup but i mostly just got errors. then i tried to do it with code (heh) here's a sample:
SecurityName.Value = Cells(r, 5)
ParityBid1.Value = FormatNumber(Cells(r, 12), 2)
ParityAsk1.Value = FormatNumber(Cells(r, 13), 2)
ParityLast1.Value = FormatNumber(Cells(r, 14), 2)
LocalVolume1.Value = FormatNumber(Cells(r, 10), 0)
Again, it pulls the data fine, it just doesn't update. Anyone who can help will receive total consciousness on their deathbed.
I have hundreds of combobox's that provide a list of names (few thousand names).
I have it set up so a user can select anyone from the combobox for the line of data they are working on.
The problem is, if I add data to the list that is populated by the combo box, the combo box doesn't always update.
the combo box link to the data by named range (list on another sheet in same workbook), and the named range is automatically updated when an entry is added (so the range is correct), but the combo boxes still won't update all the time. The strange part is.
I have several Excel files saved on a network drive at work. We run cost studies and have numerous links mixed in with these files. My question is, when we change data in one sheet, it doesn't update the other sheet where we have it linked. When you click on the address for the link you get, (\fileshareN:Raetc...) If I remove the \fileshare and leave it as N: the links update. What am I doing wrong here? It automatically adds this \fileshare piece when I add the link. When I have removed it and close it, the extra information is added and I am back at square one.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using Microsoft Excel 2003. There are several charts in the worksheet and the ranges for the series in the charts are defined by named ranges, e.g.:
Values: =FirstNamedRange
where FirstNamedRange is defined as Sheet1!A2:A100.
The values in FirstNamedRange are themselves calculated from other inputs. The problem is that when I recalculate the sheet, changing the values of FirstNamedRange, there are times when the chart does not change.
This happens sporadically. 9 times out of 10 both the values in the range and the chart change. At other times, the values in the range change and the chart doesn't reflect this. If I save the file, close and then reopen, (thus forcing the chart to recalculate?) then the chart looks correct.
I have a written the function below, but when ever I use it, and for example drag it across lots of cells, they all come up with the same value, and I have to manual click on each one and pres enter to get it to show the right value. I have tried searching but without much luck as I am not sure what I should be searching for. Using application.volatile doesn't.
Option Explicit
Public Function FirstLinePickUp(inputrow As Variant) As Variant
Dim n As Integer
Dim testcell As Variant
n = 0

n = n + 1
Loop
FirstLinePickUp = testcell
n = 0
testcell = ""

Why a formula would not automatically update? Possible problem is in relation to "<=" component of formulas'.
NOTE: This is not in relation to calculations option being set to 'Manual'.
This problem only effect two cells on my entire workbook and all other cells within the column affected, with the exact same formula, work fine.
The "<=" part of the formula is in relation to a drop down list with values from 1 to 12 and the formula works fine initially when flicking between the dropdown list numbers. But if I save the workbook on dropdown list number 2, the formula no longer works...
I have a file that tracks the number of days my employees take off each month. I want to be able to go back 6 months on a rolling basis to get the total number of days taken off.
I am trying to set my file up so that I can type in the month in cell R1 and have column S update for each employee with the total number of days he/she has taken off for the past six months. For example, if I type in OCT in R1, I would like to see S2 change to 6 and S3 change to 2.
