Calling Subs When Workbook Opens
Mar 7, 2012I have the following code in a module that I would like to initiate when the workbook opens:
Code:
Private Declare Function GetComputerName Lib "kernel32" _
Alias "GetComputerNameA" ( _
ByVal lpBuffer As String, _
ByRef nSize As Long) As Long
Public Property Get ComputerName() As String
[Code] ........
In a worksheet, I have =compname() in cell A1 and =hdserialnumber() in A2. What is the trick to make the values in these cells appear as soon as the worksheet opens?
How To Use Same Variables In Different Subs
Jun 4, 2009I have 2 sub, and I want to use the same variables that reference values on my spreadsheet.
for instance, I declare and set ws as worksheet("sheet1") in the first sub.
in the second one, I also want to reference to the same ws. Instead of having to declare it twice, being redundant, what would be a good way to do this?
Passing Variables Between Subs?
Nov 3, 2009I think I am confused as to how to declare a variable in one sub and use it as an input into another sub. I have attached some code below that assigns a value to two variables and then calls a sub that uses those values. I am brand new to programming so I guess I am confused how to implement this.

Oct 30, 2013I have some code I'm running:
Code:
Sub Main ()

Somehow I need to pass Value1 & Value2 to secondroutine.
Variables Loosing Values Between Subs
Nov 30, 2006trying to get it to put the 2 variables into 2 cells in the worksheet for the moment!
The Forms code is:
Private Sub CmdCancel_Click()
Me.Hide
Unload frmMsgBox
Exit Sub
End Sub
Private Sub CmdOK_Click()
Me.Hide
End Sub
It always fills the cells with False and blank, no matter what buttons are pressed (except cancel), so all I can think is that the information isn't feeding back through properly from the form.
Calling Variables
Apr 14, 2009The below thing has been driving me up a wall for 2 days now. I know the fix has to do with calling the variables, but I can't figure out the exact code.
Sub Parsing_Logic()
Dim IBG_URL As String
Dim A As String
A = Mid(IBG_URL, Application.WorksheetFunction.Find("/200", IBGURL), 8)
Dim B As String
B = Left(IBG_URL, Application.WorksheetFunction.Find("/200", IBGURL))
Dim C As String
C = Right(IBG_URL, Len(IBG_URL) - (Len(A) + Len(B)))
Dim D As String
D = Left(C, Application.WorksheetFunction.Find(".200", C))
End Sub
Function IBGLink(IBG_URL As String, Formatted_Date As String)
If Application.WorksheetFunction.IsErr(A) Then
IBGLink = (D & Formatted_Date)
Else: IBGLink = (B & Formatted_Date & D & Formatted_Date)
End If
Calling Forms Using Variables
Nov 9, 2009I would like to know if it is possible to display a form using a variable containing the form name rather than the form name itself, I have tried everything I can think of and cannot make it work. I know I can use CASE SELECT but I have a large number of forms involved and would like to use a variable name if possible.
View 4 Replies View RelatedCalling A Sub From Another Sub - Passing Variables
Aug 1, 2007problems with the syntax involved in calling one subroutine from within another. I want to pass two variables calculated in a 'main' sub into the parentheses of another I am calling (see pseudocode below). When I pass one variable, everything works fine, however, when I try to include another, I get an error message - something about expecting an "=" in the syntax, which is clearly not correct.
Sub main()
row = .....
column = .....
counting(row, column)
End sub()
Sub counting (row, column)

Calling Macro In Another Workbook And Carrying Some Variables Back And Forth
May 22, 2013I have a macro running in a workbook that gathers some data (a date, a string and a few arrays). Towards the end of this macro, I need it to open another workbook and run a macro that sits in this other workbook, using the data from the first workbook. I then need it to return some results (several integers) back to the first macro to be pasted into the first workbook.
I gather that I can't use 'Call' as the second macro is in another workbook.
I've found that I can use Application.Run but I'm unsure how to carry variables back and forth using this.
How to move the variables between macros / workbooks using the Application.Run option, or maybe another way of doing things?
Declare Multiple Subs On 1 Line Just Like Multiple Variables
May 25, 2014I'm making a Form with multiple pages and on every page there are atleast 36 Textboxes.
[Amount] [Description] [price]
I want to run a small sub updating the price on changing the amount. My code now looks like this:
Code:
Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
Call UpdatePrice
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox2_Change()
Call UpdatePrice
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox3_Change()
Call UpdatePrice
End Sub
I have to do this on 8 pages, 24 to 36 times, which makes the code extremely long. Is there a better way to do this?
Something like:
Code:
Private Sub TextBox1_Change(), TextBox2_Change() etc...
Call UpdatePrice
End sub
Calling Module In Module With Variables
Oct 25, 2011What i have at the moment is a module that contains code where i call a different module that i use as a procedure.
Module1
Code:
If Sheet1.Range("C4").Value < Sheet1.Range("A2").Value Then
If Sheet1.Range("K4") = "" Then
MsgBox "Please check 06:00 tasks not done yet!"
Cell = "Range(" & Chr(34) & "F4" & Chr(34) & ")"
If Sheet1.Range("C4") + 0.042 < Sheet1.Range("A2") Then
Run "EmailProSheet"
End If
End If
End If
EmailProSheet is what i call but now i want to use the variable "Cell" in the procedure as well?
Module3
Code:
MsgBox Cell
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)
On Error Resume Next
[Code]........
As it is now everything is working fine but does not return a value in "Cell" if the procedure is called. Is there another way?
Merging Two VBA Subs?
Mar 21, 2012I'd like to combine two VBA subs existing on a single sheet. Since they can't duplicate I need some sort of a switch statement...?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
Dim VRange As Range, cell As Range
Dim Msg As String
Dim ValidateCode As Variant
Set VRange = Range("E4:E100")
For Each cell In Target
[Code]....
Combining Two Subs Into One
May 20, 2014I have two subs which I've been trying to combine into one. Essentially all that is changing is the slicer name and range value.
Here's what I have:
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetPivotTableChangeSync(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As PivotTable)
Dim cache As Excel.SlicerCache
Set cache = ActiveWorkbook.SlicerCaches("Slicer_Project_Type3")
Dim sItem As Excel.SlicerItem
Dim myString As String
For Each sItem In cache.SlicerItems
If sItem.Selected = True Then
myString = myString & "," & sItem.Name
[code].....
But it's erroring out on me.
Repeating The Subs
May 8, 2007How can I have a sub repeat itself? I have a code and I want it to ask the user at the end if they would like to do it again. If so the whole sub needs to be repeated. I'm sure this has something to do with looping, but I don't know how to manage this.

Jan 26, 2009I have created a few User Defined Types in a Main subroutine, but when I pass them into another sub the intelisense for the elements doesn't come up. I can type in the elements manually - and it all seems to work okay - but with a lot of types and elements I really want it to save me the effort.

Jul 28, 2007Calling a Sub from another Sub is quite common, how about a Sub that does nothing else but call all the subs to execute the entire job?
Will the subs run sequentially after one completes, or will there be the likley hood they will bump into each other causing all sorts of chaos.
String Names In Different Subs
Jan 12, 2007How can it be that this works?
Sub AA()
Dim ReportFileName As String
Cells(1, 19).Select
ReportFileName = ActiveCell.Value
ChDir "C:"
Workbooks.Open Filename:=ReportFileName _
End Sub
And this doesn't work?
Sub BB()
Dim ReportFileName As String
Cells(1, 19).Select
ReportFileName = ActiveCell.Value
CC
End Sub
Sub CC()
ChDir "C:"
Workbooks.Open Filename:=ReportFileName _
End Sub
Somehow it seems that the value of the string "ReportFileName" is forgotten when running the subroutine CC. How do I make it not "forget" the file name?
Linking Subs To Excute One After The Other
Jan 25, 2007The below is a selection of some of the code i have written to organise data. The below works, but i'm not sure how/if I can make all the subs work in order automatically once I start the first Sub? I realise what I have written is probably pretty poor code so many need changed?
Sub move_to_all()
Sheets("All").Select
Cells.Select
Range("A10").Activate
Selection.Copy
Sheets("Rest").Select
Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste

Breakpoints Not Hit In Public Subs Of Vba Add-in
May 2, 2007I have Three questions about debugging VBA code of an excel add-in.
-Breakpoints set in certain Public Subroutines are NOT hit. I have an application that writes data to the add-in. You cannot debug the app + the add-in. The add does things(e.g. writes data), then calls a main public macro in the add-in, then the addin takes over. If I comment out the main macro, the parent app halts, then I try to set breaks in the add-in.
After resumeing, some breaks are never hit. I know this because if I set a stack trace (output ing the func name to a temporary worksheet), I see these functions being hit. All the modules are public.
Usually in C, breakpoints are not hit because that code is NOT part of the address space of the program.
2. Very naive question (I am a C,C++ programmer)...some tiimes when I hit F5, the whole app runs, other times a list of macros comes up (just as if I had gone to the menu and went toolsmacros. Why is this?????.....placement of the cursor?????
3. If in the app I have 5 code modules, with two public subroutines each.
HOW COME, IF I GO TOOLSMACROSRUN (same as what I get sometimes when I go F5), I ONLY GET A PARTIAL LISTING OF THE SUBROUTINES, ie NOT ALL 10?
Pass Arguments Between Subs
Jul 11, 2007I am still learning and was wondering what is wrong with this. I have cut some of the code out as it pretty long. This is my main procedure:

' = 1 slip
' = 2 soil yielded
Dim istat(1 To 999) As Single

It then calls secondary_loop:................
A Variable Which Is Used By Several Subs In A Worksheet But Is Not Global?
Dec 7, 2008I am working on a workbook which uses a large number of variables. I am trying to keep them as "local" as possible to keep it simple. Some of my variables are local to the subs they're used in. Some are global as they're used by subs in several sheets. A third type of variable is used by several subs all belonging to the same sheet. Is there a way of declaring them so they're known by all subs in that sheet, but not by every sub in the workbook?

Pass Function Result Between Subs
Oct 11, 2006I have a simple/dumb question... How do you "capture" a value that is returned by a custom function.
I have tried searching the forums for this & I know that I should by all rights know how to do this by now... but I just can't figure it out.
Here is a Function that I copied from Ktrasler in this thread:
Week Numbers
Public Function MyWeek(DateArg As Date) As Byte
Const BaseDate = "30/12/2001"
DateArg = CDate(DateArg) - (Weekday(DateArg) - 1)
MyWeek = Int(((DateArg - CDate(BaseDate)) / 7) Mod 52)
If MyWeek = 0 Then MyWeek = 52
End Function
I know how to pass variables to Functions, and tried this one out & it worked splendidly for my needs, but how do I take the value of "MyWeek" and use it in the subroutine that I am calling it from?
Pass Workbook Variable Between Subs
Jul 11, 2007This is the code after editing to make it more clear
Public Sub 1()
BookA= activeworkbook. name
BookB=Application.Workbooks.Add
Workbook(BookB).activate
End Sub
Public Sub 2()
BookB=Activeworkbook.name
With BookB. sheets(1)
.range("A1")=BookA.sheets(1).range("B1")
End Sub()
At the end of public sub 1, BookB is the active workbook. What I want to do in public sub 2 is to copy some data from BookA to BookB. Unfortunately, when moving from public sub 1 to public sub 2, BookA needs to be defined again. The code above is the code that I use in my add-ins. I figured out for non add-ins code I can define BookA with thisworkbook.name when BookB is active as I before work with BookA. This does not apply for add-ins as thisworkbook will refer to my add-ins code. Is there anyway of keeping definition of BookA is constant from one public sub to another public sub? This is simplified code. In fact, I can't merge public sub 2 with public sub 1 due to some reason which I don't say it here.

Add Macro To Call Subs Depending On Cell Value
May 16, 2014I am trying to add a macro to the ACCT DATA sheet, which calls one of two subs (AddCarriertoChecklist() - or - ClrPolChList() located in seperate modules). The macro should call them depending on whether "X" is entered in a cell in column "E". The issue lies in that I have macros doing a few things to this sheet already, and I am unable to tie this one in.
I have the two subs (AddCarriertoChecklist() - or - ClrPolChList()) working. I just can't seem to get them called. This small bit is how I was attempting to call them.

Below is how I currently have it tied in with the rest of the code for this sheet:
