Using Shape To Call Macro (Filepath Error)
Apr 9, 2014
I am changing command buttons over to shapes for aesthetic purposes. I went to assign a macro to call useform4 using a rectangle with the following code:
[Code] .....
It throws me some kind of file path error which makes no sense. Do I have to dim the rectangle2 for active sheet or something?

I have a Private button sub in Sheet2. I use it to call a sub in Module1. Like this:
Private Sub button_Click()
Call MacroModule
End Sub
It works when the sub in the module ("MacroModule") is declared as a normal sub.
But I want to declare it as a Private sub so it does not show up on the macro list.
When I change the Macromodule to a private sub, the call gives an error saying sub is undefined.

I create and load a commandbar, prior to loading it I attempt to check if it exists, then delete it, and recreate.
I dont understand why this seemed to work for months and now creates an error.
It appears that every now and then the created commandbar is not created when I open a file. Thats when the error pops up. I can manually run the Create_Bar sub and it will be fine, for a while.
Run-time error '5':
Invalid procedure call or argument
This section is in my personal.xls file in "ThisWorkBook" of personal.xls.

I'm using a CALL Macro to split up a HUGE macro into different pieces:
Code:
Sub RSLDASHBOARDV2()
'Macro recorded 12/14/2010 by Ryan R. Koleno, Pharm.D.
'Last Updated 7/10/12 by Ryan R. Koleno, Pharm.D.
'Do Not Modify Code Unless Given Proper Privileges to do so.
Dim APPSPD As Worksheet
With Application
.ScreenUpdating = False
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
[code]...
The first few macros dealing with page setup and what not work fine but when it hits the Pivot table code for the STATSPIVOT macro it errors out stating: "Run-time error '1004': Unable to get the PivotItems property of PivotField class' at this point in the code:
Code:
objField2.PivotItems( _
"TRC").Position = 1
objField.PivotItems( _
"MEDCO MAIL OR AOB").Position = 2
When this macro is not split up it worked fine as written. Am I overlooking something in the Call Macro's code or is there a variable I'm not aware of. I have included the Pivot Table code that errors out as well.
Code:
Sub STATSPIVOT()
'STATS PAGE BASED ON STATS DATA TAB
Sheets("STATS DATA").Select
Dim objTable As PivotTable, objField As PivotField
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("STATS DATA").Select
Range("A1").Select
[code]...

This is the code I use to call a macro when the macro Im calling is in the same workbook.
[Code].....
However, I would like to call this same macro when using another workbook. I copied the macro "Clearformating" and pasted into a personal macro workbook module. However when I add this code to the sheet tab it will not run the macro.
I also tried this code.

I have a work book with 3 sheets. Sheet 1 is the main sheet and sheets 2 and 3 will use (I hope vlookup) to update 3 columns from info in sheet 1. my attempt at a vlookup call in sheet 2 is: =VLOOKUP($b3,[master_AoJ_2.xls]Sheet1!$B$3;$B$65,false)
my understanding is that: - $b3 is the cell in sheet 2 that will be updated as a result of the vlookup call. - [master_AoJ_2.xls]Sheet1!$B$3;$B$65 refers to range $B$3:$B$65 on sheet1 of master_AoJ_2. it does not work... infact I get nothing at all. when I type the call into cell $b3 of sheet2 excel thinks it is stariaght text. this is how I coded the function call =VLOOKUP($b3,[master_AoJ_2.xls]Sheet1!$B$3;$B$65,false)

I am making a spreadsheet file for our football offcials group to review rules.
I tried to record a macro to copy a shape and put it into the spreadsheet, but the shape does not copy.
How do I get the shape to copy into the spreadsheet?
What I want is for them to "think" what they would do and then click the macro and it will show them where the ball would be after the foul/fouls.

I have to create an identical button on 20 sheets.
I have a shape creation macro but it creates in the default format.
Can I either change the default format so they are created in the way I want or code to add formatting? I need no shadow, can colour (pref with gradient fill), bevelled edges and text.
Sounds like the first option will be easiest if it works!

I am trying to write a set of code, part of which involves moving a shape around an excel spreadsheet in a square shape within a certain range. It is based on a random number generator. The shape moves a number of cells to the left/right/up/down depending on the random number (d) multiplied by 16. If the shape reaches a row or column border point, it will change direction but continue moving in the new direction until it has gone as far as was determined by the random number (*16). I have some code which works fine... to a point! The shape starts out, reaches a right hand border, changes direction to go up, reaches another border, changes again and goes left, but then when it comes to change dorection the 3rd time and go down, it fails. The direction of the shape is determined by a word in cell A1 - left/right/up/down:
Sub MoveRed()
Application. ScreenUpdating = True
Dim d As Integer
Dim i As Integer
d = Range("AZ1").Value
With ActiveSheet.Shapes("RedDot")
For i = 1 To 16 * d
Select Case Range("A1").Value

I've got a macro function which calculates the area of a polygon freeform using the 'shoelace'-methode. I would like to excute this function after i leave the shape editing mode.
For example: I have a square, freeform shape. By right-mouseclick I can edit the shape nodes. If i drag one of the nodes of the square to another position and click outside of the shape, the new shape is updated. Right, on that moment i would like to trigger my macro to recalculate the area.
Is there an event in excel to aim for, like the Worksheet.change-event or something similar?

I have a macro that runs when I click on a shape. This macro is called "Shape_Click"
I can apply that to a shape by selecting it and manually running this macro:
[Code] .....
How do I get the subroutine to run as soon as the new shape has been selected, rather than haviong to manually run it.
Something like "Sub Worksheet_ShapeAdded" or something like that? I can't work it out.

I am trying to run different macros by clicking various different buttons on the sheet, I then want different data to load into the user form depending which button was pressed. So I have buttons named "SV_1" and another named "SV_2". when either button is pressed then it runs a common macro that gets the name of the calling item. then I want to add "Macro" to the beginning of the calling item name and then call that macro. here is the code that I am working with, when using a watch i can see the value of the variable is "MacroSV_1" when button 1 is pressed but I cannot get it to run the Sub.
VB:
Public ClkBtn As String
Public CallMacro As String
Sub ItemCall()

I am trying to write a sub that executes a sub in an xla add-in. How can that be done in general?
More specifically I am wondering whether it can be done with the limited info that I have about the add-in and the to be executed macro within the add-in.
assume the name of the xla add-in is test.xla. The add-in is locked. I therefore do not know the name of the sub to be executed nor do I know the "on action" name of the sub in the ribbon. All I have is the Ribbon button label. Assume the ribbon button label is "ButtonLabel".
Is it possible to call the macro just by knowing the ribbon button label? If yes, how does the script look like assuming the above xla and button name?

I've created a simple UserForm, and with some great help from royUK. I've managed to get it working to suite my needs. The next thing I need to do is call it when the user runs the macro.
How do I call the UserForm from within the macro that I created?
Once the user gives the input, how do I take the values and pass them to the loop in the macro?

I have created a custom menu and saved it as an .xla, one of the functions on the menu is to open up a workbook from a file path. The second option on the menu is to run a macro from the custom menu that is saved in this opened workbook.
Is it possible to write a code that will go off and find this macro from this open workbook?
The reason I wanted to do this is so the user has two options to enter data from however I didn't want to copy the macro over from the original workbook as in time the workbook will be updated

I have a named range, which pulls a text value from a vlookup. This text is the name of a vba sub I have written. What I would like to do, is call the macro based on this value. This is what I have so far but I can't get it to run.
Code:
Sub ControlSheets()
ActiveSheet.Calculate
Hideallsheets
Dim MacroSub As String
MacroSub = sheets("Control").Range("SheetMacro").Value
Call MacroSub 'this is the name taken above that i want to call
End Sub
