I'm testing some userform code & it seems to cause some sort of lockup where I can't enter anything into the excel cells. It doesn't just affect the spreadsheet the userform is attached to but any spreadsheet that I have open.
why the following code generates an error if I use the backspace key to clear the textbox?
Code: Dim t As Date If Len(Controls.Item("txtstart").Value) = 4 Then On Error Resume Next t = TimeSerial(Left(Controls.Item("txtstart").Value, 2), Right(Controls.Item("txtstart").Value, 2), 0) On Error GoTo 0 ElseIf Len(Controls.Item("txtstart").Value) = 5 Then On Error Resume Next
I have a piece of code in one of my Macro's, if I run the macro and don't let this piece of code run everything works fine, when I let this piece of code execute the excel file keeps running until I go to save, at which point I get a message saying "Microsoft office excel has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for any inconvenience".
Code is as follows:
If MsgBox("Copy and hardcode this scenario?", vbYesNo) = vbYes Then Calculate Application.DisplayAlerts = False
I am creating a line graph to display changes in Cost Per Unit (CPU) of a given item over time.
The issue I have is that the CPU data on the line graph is displayed as 0 values where data is yet to be inputted. Instead I want the graph to remain blank where no data has yet been added. How can this be done?
find attached a simplified mock up of the spreadsheet.
Constant (fixed) values are: - Date - Hourly Rate Values inputted on a daily basis are: - Hours Worked - Volume Picked Calculated values are: - Total Cost - Cost Per Unit - Mean [=average(CPU)] - UWL [=mean+(2*stdev(CPU))] - UAL [=mean+(3*stdev(CPU))]
I'm open to using VBA if necessary, however as I will not be the only user of this workbook when it is complete I would prefer to keep it a simple as possible.
I want to say thanks for any help you might be able to offer. Attached are 2 sheets out of a workbook I am using which has many sumproduct formulas. On the the Input sheet, is where vacation and training forecast dates are listed. On the Calcs sheet, there are 2 monthly calendars for the year, 1 for vacation, the other for training. Would like to know if there is a way to have both records show up on only one calendar set. I currently have the vacation shown as a '1' and the training shown as a '9'. The workbook is used in Excel 2003 & 2007.
I am trying to sort a database with about 500,000 names. For some reason, about half my data has leading spaces and half do not. I have taken a screenshot at the divide so you can see what I mean. The sort in the picture is in this order:
Column D Column C Column A
Is there any way to mass purge these leading spaces in Column D (column b also has the issue but the fix is not nearly as important as for column D)?
I have an action that deletes a row, and decrements rows counter by one. But, if the user manually deletes one row, I don't get that information (decrementation). Workbook pretection is out of the option.
What are my choices?
I was thinking, is it possible to capture a delete event in general, and add some code to it? Or maybe even completely disable it?
Using Excel 2003, I'm summarizing info in one sheet (Review) with data in another worksheet (Work Orders). The following SUMPRODUCT calc worked fine...
I seem to have a bug i can't quite figure out with my code - its causing excel to crash each time it reaches this line (when its commented out - the form runs fine - otherwise "excel has encountered an error")....
Set frameFullX = frameFull.Controls.Add("Forms.frame.1", "frameFull1") frameFullX is declared as a control and frameFull is a frame already on the userform.
Anyone know what I might be doing wrong (I'm going to try restarting and see if was just an issue with my machine or not?
My nested loop works as intended without If statements, ie it counts non blank cells in a series of 17 ranges (this loop is called the CountRangesOnEachRow loop) AND then drops down a row and repeats (this loop is called the RowNo loop). The problem is that once my first If statement occurs the RowNo loop fails and it stops at the first row.
The first If statement is designed to do the following:
1. Tests to see if A4 has data. If yes, copy cell contents (pupil's name) to Sheet(2).Range("StudentName") 2. If empty skip the countranges loop and move down a row to A5. 3. Cells A4:A35 need to be tested for data in this manner.
I've included a sample workbook & code with the IF statement comment blocked so you can see what it should do AFTER it tests the A column for data. The macro should end after row 6 as A6:A35 are all blank.
I have got several different workbooks that I use that contain macros that format cells. However, just recently I have had countless problems with the macros telling Excel to format certain cells. There seems to be no logic or order to this. Also, if I then try to format the cells by hand, I get the following error message: "Too many cell formats"
I have a set of userforms, two of which are big with 4 pages and many buttons, labels and textboxes that run or are involved in code being run from user input to the userform.
For some reason certain codes are cauing excel to fully crash, executing these codes will make excel crash each time and the only way to prevent it (that I have found) is to open the userform in VB editor and then close VB editor again, the code will then work perfectly for a while and then it will start crashing again (it is normally a few saves and open/closes later that this occurs).
Logically thinking, opening the userform in VB must reset something that gets corrupted or set incorrectly....
A large Excel file that I have been working with for months is now giving me trouble.
When I tried to delete 2 rows, it displayed a message: "Excel cannot complete this task with avail resources. Choose less data or close other applications."
I opened a previously saved version of the file and tried deleting rows, and the same message came up.
I shut down the computer, rebooted, same problem.
Any way to determine if a file has been corrupted .... or even worse ... is there a possibility that my Excel program itself is corrupted?
why my code would hit a run time error on a shared file? It works fine unshared. This is on a ActivateSheet Worksheet Event, Code is housed in a Module and called when activated.
Have a code to clear contents on one of my worksheets and it continually causes excel to freeze and forces me to exit the program. When the button is selected it takes approx. 30-45 seconds to clear the data and then excel freezes up. The code is as follows:
Sub() Sheets("Sheet1").Range("B2:D16000").ClearContents End Sub
The data in the range B2:D16000 comes from another macro that copies and pastes values to this sheet. I am also working on the mac 2011 version.
why this is causing an error upon opening the file. This workbook has a userform with a listbox (single list, single selection), and when I have the ControlSource property set it causes an error upon opening the userform (which opens when the file is opened), whereas if I do not have the ControlSource property set to anything, it seems to work fine.
Interestingly, if I set the file up to not open the userform with the file, and instead have the userform open when a worksheet control such as a command button is clicked, it doesn't seem to matter if the ControlSource property is set or not. The workbook in question is attached.
I am pulling external data from an Access 2007 database query that uses the nz function. While linking to the query, I get an "Undefined Function nz" error. The query works perfect when run in Access.
I have a workbook with many lookups, sumproducts, dynamic named ranges and cse formulas. How do I determine what is causing my workbook to be slow? Are there more efficient formula types that I can use?
I recently added some command buttons to 6 excel files each with about 20 sheets. most of the sheets got 6 new buttons. After I added the buttons I would get memory errors when I treied to open other files. So I upgraded to Office 2003 and Excel 2003 because I read that it had increased memory available. It did not seem to help much, and now on average about evry say 10 minutes Excel hangs for about 1o seconds, sometimes saying "Not Responding" up the top. Then it starts working again. MY PC has Server 2003 and 1GHz and 512MB of Ram. Here is some info:
I have a spread sheet that contains many user defined functions from a 3rd party provider that downloads financial data from an external database. Often not all of the data is required by the user, and as the UDF's take a long time to calcuate, i'd like to provide the ability to easily switch them on and off. Originally I had been looping through cells and either adding an apostrophe in front of the = or removing it. However running this loop is very slow.
I found this thread (Optimize VBA Loop For Inserting Formula) and adapted it to convert formula strings (with ' in front) to formulas in a single pass by setting:
myRange.formula = myRange.value. This works very well. I can't, however, work out how to go back the other way in a single pass. Have tried: myRange.formula = "'" & myRange.formula. This works for individual cells, but not for more than one at a time.
Where D3 is a starting date, E3 is a closing date, and A5 is a sorting code. It looks at my general journal and looks for all the entries between the two dates, and then sums up all the entries linked to the sorting code in A5. The sorting code is in column H, and the amount to sum is in column I, and this is repeated 3 times.
You are already probably signering at how long I must have to wait while excel calculates all these formulas (* 220). I have resorted to a macro that turns caluculation to manual when I open this workbook, and back to auto when it closes.
I have a large file, part of which amongst other things calculates life expectancy from a range of q(x) values (proportion of people that die moving from age (x) to (x+1). Life expectancy is calculated using a user-defined function (below).
My problem is that whenever I run a macro that changes the file, even parts of the file that don't affect the cells using the life function, it jumps into the life function. (An example: copying and pasting values on a different sheet). This is a hassle when stepping through other macros using F8, not to mention the time cost.
Some further possibly necessary information: one macro uses the GoalSeek application to set the target cell that contains the life function
By the way, this didn't use to happen in older versions of a similar file. When running the GoalSeek macro to change target life expectancy it did, but not for any other macro.
Here is the function:
Function life(data As Range)
' Aims to calculate Life expectancy from Qx values ' It assumes first value of Q is Qb, then Q0 to Qmax
Dim Nobs As Integer Dim j As Integer, i As Integer Dim q() As Double Dim L() As Double Dim T As Double, le As Double
I have an Excel file that has a certain amount of Array Formulas. It takes 30 seconds to calculate every time the user makes a change. Some users do not have the Status Bar showing, and they think that Excel is "locked up". I want to make a user form that will appear when the Stats Bar is "Calculating..." There are a lot of "progress indicator" tutorials on this site, but they all seem to relate to VBA code being inserted in between certain lines. That doesn't apply. My Excel file has no VBA. It just takes a long time to recalculate. I want a VBA form to appear, that will match the % progress shown on the Status Bar, whenever a change is made to the spreadsheet.
I am trying to sort a bunch of data by a custom list from left to right and after running the macro successfully excel crashes upon saving. I have tried this on different computers, resaved, started from scratch and it always crashes so there must be something with the macro that is causing this.
here is my macro:
Edit: It seems that the last line of code is causing my problem. I have started from scratch and gone though all the code one at a time and saved after each run. everything is fine until the "Application.DeleteCustomList Application.CustomListCount" is run. after that excel crashes when saved.
-2147417848 automation error the object invoked has disconnected from its clients
Unfortunately, I can't tell where the error is occurring because everytime it happens excel crashes or at least stops responding. I tried waiting it out (about 20 minutes) but no luck. the only thing I can do is force the program to shut down through the task manager.
The program is designed to pull information from finviz.com (a financial site), filter the data. pull the next round of data and run the filters again. there are a total of 8 queries and i think it gets hung up during the 6th or 7th run through.
Stepping through the code does not seem practical since each query might pull as many as 300 rows of data that is evaluated in a for/next loop (thats a lot of F8s).
I have a rather large workbook (30 sheets, 10MB) that has one worksheet with many INDIRECT functions in it (pulling data from the same file, different tabs). I am working to put simple code into the workbook to protect and/or unprotect all worksheets. I have gotten code to work to both protect and unprotect all the sheets, but when I run the unprotect code (see below), and then I go to edit the workbook, data from the sheet with many "indirect" functions temporarily "overwrites" the data on the active sheet (this is fixed when I scroll my mouse over the effected cells). I am developing this workbook for other users, so I'd like to fix this before sending it off to them.
This problem does not happen until after I run the following .....
In the situation where I shut down my model (i.e. not just press Ctrl+S, but shut it down), the following code saves the model twice. I only want it to save once. I really can't see why it saves a second time.
NB: I know if you set Cancel to True in the BeforeSave event, it should prevent the model from saving after the event, but even when set to true in the below code, it still saves...
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean) bIsClosing = True 'Given we shut model, this public bIsClosing is set to true... End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean) Dim wsArray() As Variant Dim iCnt As Integer Dim wsSht As Worksheet Application. ScreenUpdating = 0 Splash.Visible = True 'Splash is codename for warning spreadsheet, this is left 'visible while all other sheets are to be hidden.......................
I am working with 4 seperate workbooks where 4 different people enter data into cells. I have a 5th workbook that needs to have all the data from the 4 individual workbooks bought across so I can see all data. Like a master file. basically, in each cell of the master, I have the following code. =IF('[loans - 0708 - officer 01.xls]07-08'!B5="","",'[loans - 0708 - officer 01.xls]07-08'!B5)
I then have the code for each officer. As there are 24000 lines collectively for the financial year, the size of my master is 37mb, even when its empty, obviously cause each cell still have a formular in it. Is there ANY way to copy across the data from other workbooks without having to have every single correpsonding cell have this kind of formular to view the code? Also, copy it without having to open the other workbooks.
