I am trying to write a simple macro that would start a timer (in hh:mm:ss format) when the cell is selected. In other words, if I have the following:
Row Col B Col C
1 00:00:00 (form btn)
2 00:00:00 (form btn)
3 00:00:00 (form btn)
I would like to select B1 to start a timer and C1 (button) to stop the timer for that row.
I was given code from another IT guy but the problem with this code is that I have to write multiple macros by just switching out the cell number (in this example = [C4] )
I would like to have the macro use the selected cell as input parameter in the line that reads Set count = [C4].
Dim CD As Date
Sub RunTime()
CD = Now + TimeValue("00:00:01")
Application.OnTime CD, "Counter"
End Sub
[code].....

I have a worksheet that has macro events attached to command buttons. When a ‘Start’ command button is clicked, a timer begins counting in seconds and displays the value in cell B3 until a ‘Stop’ command button is clicked. The event works flawlessly as long as I don’t open up another workbook (to continue working in Excel).
When the second workbook is open…then time stops working in the workbook where the macro was created…and starts displaying the ‘timer count in seconds’ in the new active workbook--which overwrites/destroys the data in the newly opened workbook. When I go back to the original book that called the macro…it continues counting again.
I need this timer to continue running in the workbook with the command buttons (in the background) while I work on other worksheets in other books. Is there a way to keep the timer running no matter how many other workbooks are opened and prevent it from overwriting whatever sheet is active? This code in the Increment Sub below ‘overwrites’ the contents of cell B3 on whatever sheet is active---and stops the timer in the on the sheet with the ‘Start’ command button.

How can I check if a cell has data validation with a VBA procedure?
I want to do this because I am using a procedure to add data validation and I get an error if the cell already contains data validation.

I have data in Row 53 that spans 7 columns, but stays in the same row. I want to design a loop to select every 7th cell in that row and check if it is empty. If not, add onto a "counter" then display the final number of occupied cells (the value of the counter) at the end. This is what I have so far, but I get all sorts of errors.
Code:
Sub Tester()
Dim WB As Workbook
Dim WS As Worksheets
Dim modCounter As Long
Dim Cell As Range
Set WB = Workbook("Transverse Series.xlsm")
Set WS = WB.Sheets(BM18)
[Code] ......

I have a tab with different city names and then a a series of answers to a number of different questions, what I need to do is create a macro which looks a table on a different tab, and if column b matches any of the words in the table to then print that entire row of answers.
So if the information found in R1!M3:M21 is found in Results!B:B then print that row to sheet R1. If the information found in R2!M3:M22 is found in Results!B:B then print to sheet R2 etc.
This is the only other way I could describe it, however I don't think it can be done as a formula anyway (even though it is somewhat gibberish)
IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(R1!M3:M21,Results!B:B))print the row,move onto next row)

The following code displays the message box and loads a userform if the Active cell offset 1, -1 when within G column equals "LAST ROW".
[Code] .....
How can I change it so instead it performs those same actions (displaying the message box, and loads the userform) if the number of rows between the last data entry in G and the last data entry in F is equal to 0?

I have a big database of customers, each one has a unique reference number. They are spread accross a bunch of different tabs (21 in total to be exact)
One issue I have had is staff entering a customer whos already in the database, causing a duplicate entry. I dont need excel to tell us where the entry is, just to give some kind of indicator it already exists. I thought I may be able to use data validation/conditionality to turn the cell fill Red when it already exists in the data base.
The reason I think that method would be best, is that the sheets that data is entered on are seperate that the master sheet then pulls the data through from. Its the master sheet that would need to indicate a duplicate has been entered, as thats the only sheet where the entire database can be viewed.

I'm attempting to use VB in excel. I've created a form and several check boxes with specific options for each one.
when one box is clicked I want the data from that box (whatever the option is) - to appear in a specific cell (ie: cell 17)

I have a database of names and titles (acutally: #, last name, full name, title, meeting) and at this point I have a column using the following code.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A5:A355")) Is Nothing Then
Range("A5:A355").Cells.Clear
Target.Font.Name = "Marlett"
If Target = vbNullString Then
Target = "a"
Else
Target = vbNullString
End If
End If
End Sub
everything works like I want, except when I use the auto filter, the "a" won't be cleared from cells that are hidden. I need to make sure only one "a" is populated in this column as that's what I'm using with the vlookup function to key the data for my Character Generator.
Maybe I'm not using the best code, I'm new to this and just cobbled together code from a few different places.
Some quick background to what I'm doing, but you may not need it to help. I'm trying to use Excel to populate some cells that will tell our Chyron Character Generator (for those that don't know what that is, it's the device that puts graphics on screen during news programs, etc...) what to put up for lower third titles (and more) for our meetings we cover.

I have 4 cols, x rows. I need Column C to check Column B for a numerical value, and if true, return the value in B, and if not true, then return value from A. Column B are functions formatted as general. The reference made by Sheet2!B is numbers formatted as text as to retain leading zeros. Here is what I have so far

Below is my code to display a seconds count down timer in a textbox.
What I want to be able to do is have another textbox where I can enter the number of seconds that the timer will count down.
I don't know how to take a value from the textbox and make it like
#12:00:15 AM#
How would I do this?
Sub warmTimer()
Dim InitialTime As Single
Dim FinalTime As Single
InitialTime = Time
FinalTime = InitialTime + #12:00:15 AM#
Do
txtTimer.Text = Format((FinalTime - Time), "s")
Loop Until (Time >= FinalTime) Or (Skip = 1)
txtTimer.Text = "Time complete"
End Sub

I have converted some code that works like a countdown timer and is perfect for my needs apart from one small aspect - it counts down in seconds only, not minutes and seconds. The format I am looking for is X:yy where x is minutes and y is seconds, eg 180 seconds = 3:00. Is there a simple format I can add to a cell that will do the trick? EDIT:I think the Dim at the top of this code is causing the problems as I don't really want to show the date - just minutes and seconds counting down. A sample workbook is included - code is in Thisworkbook, Sheet1 and module1.
Dim CountDown As Date
Sub Timer()
CountDown = Now + TimeValue("00:00:01")
Application.OnTime CountDown, "Reset"
End Sub
Sub Reset()
Dim count As Range
Set count = [A1] ' A1 contains the number of seconds for the countdown.
count.Value = count.Value - 1
If count <= 0 Then
MsgBox "Countdown complete."
Exit Sub
End If
Call Timer
End Sub
Sub DisableTimer()
On Error Resume Next
Application.OnTime EarliestTime:=CountDown, Procedure:="Reset", Schedule:=False
End Sub

In cell A1 we have the word "one", and in B1 we have the word "two". Would it be possible to have a timer function run for 5 seconds, counting from 5 to 0, and everytime the timer reaches 0, the word in A1 is copied and pasted into cell C1, the timer resets and counts again to zero, this time when it gets to zero, it copies and pastes the word in cell B1 to C1. So it's like a flip flop function, with cell C1 changing it's value every 5 seconds. Also, this code needs to start running automatically when the sheet is opened. Is this at all possible with VBA?..

I have the Macro
[Code]....
That starts a timer macro (Recalc) in my excel sheet when the workbook is opened, my issue is that when the work book closes it continues to run.
Will the following macro fix this problem, or is there some command like Workbook_Open() but for closing?

I have a file that I update daily. It involves opening the file, going to a drop down menu and selecting 1 of the listed items and pressing a button to run the macro. Once the macro is complete, I then go back to the dropdown menu and select the next line item and press the same button to run the macro on this. I repeat this task 7times.
All the macro does is load a txt file to a third party system.
I am looking to see if it is possible to reduce the time it takes to do this task.

how to modify, other than one piece) for a simple countdown timer to place on a userform. On my form if a user clicks a check box I display a label that shows a count down from 300 to 0 (best/simplest code I could find to modify for my purposes). But I'd rather it look like a timer counting down from "00:05:00" to "00:00:00".
Code:
Private Sub PPackCall14_Click()
'lbCountDown, lbMinutes
If PPackCall14 = True Then
Dim i As Integer
Select Case lbMinutes.Value
Case ""

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$b$1" Then
For i = 1 To 10
Cells(1, 1) = i
Next i
End If
End Sub
It is supposed to count to 10 when the info in cell B1 changes, i would like to use it as a timer.
