VBA Code To Record Current Date
Apr 17, 2009
I know this is a simple question for all VBA droids...I guess the challenge is in how quickly I'll receive an answer. I hear the turn-around time on this board is pretty impressive. So here goes...
What is the VBA code for recording the current date without the date recalculating when the form is re-opened. I know the formula for automatic entry [=today()], but I need the date to stay the same. I can assign the date to any cell, so you may theorize any cell in the code. Remember...the trick is getting the date to stay the same once it's been automatically entered.

I want to schedule a print, for lets say every Sunday at midnight. I have managed to find some what of a solution by using the following vbscript and scheduling a print to default printer. Works perfectly if that is all I wanted.
Dim objExcel, objWorkbook, strFile
' Connect to Excel
Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
strFile = "C: est.xls"
' Open the Excel File for Printing
Set objWorkbook = objExcel.Workbooks.Open _
(strFile)
' Print to Default Printer
Set objSheet = objExcel. ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(1)
objSheet.PrintOut
objExcel.ActiveWorkbook.Close
objExcel.Application.Quit
I do not want to print to an actual printer, therefore if I set my default printer as the document writer, the vbscript gets it as far as the "Save As" page. Is there a way I can add to this vbscript so it will save as well? Can I get it to save as "name"&[DATE], thereby having it save as a different name each time?
Can I change this vbscript to print to a named printer rather then a default printer? I am sure a PDF convertor may be of some assistance with this, but I do not have an PDF converter on my computer, and as this will be carried out on a computer that I will not have administration rights, I can not download one.

I seek advice on using the value of NOW() as a record ID in an address book program. Question #1: Do Excel developers often use a record ID? Question #2: What record ID schemes are fequently employed besides date/time? I have decided to create an Excel address book as an exercise to increase my knowledge of VBA, and also as a useful application for work.
I realize that a record ID is not essential in Excel in the way that it is essential in Access, but I feel the need to have some unique ID associated with each address, so that I may have different worksheets, with data related to a given Contact, sort and manipulate it, if necessary, but have the record ID as a way to restore the relationship of rows to a given Contact, and also, as a handy way to examine the data in the date/time sequence in which it was entered. I have experimented with the following code, to assure myself that I can access the number returned by the NOW() function, manipulate it as a string, and format in various ways if necessary.
Dim n As Double
n = Now()
sn = Str(n)
p = InStr(sn, ".")
first = Left(sn, (p - 1))
l = Len(sn)
d = l - p
S = Mid(sn, (p + 1), d)....................

I am creating an asset management sheet. For the formula I am trying to work out there uses 3 fields : ID, start date, and end date.
What I want to do is be able to show if the ID is duplicated within another record with an overlapping date. So an item is flagged if it is in the list within the same dates as another record. I tried a few countif formulas but with no success.. I may just be approaching the problem incorrectly though.

I needed a code that would input the current date and time in the cells in column N whenever changes were made to any cells in the row from columns A to M. For example, if I change a name in cell 6D, then cell 6N would automatically change to the current date and time.
I found a useful code on a forum (maybe here, don't know for certain) and modified it to suit my needs (see below). I am however now getting a debugging error suggesting that the second line that reads "Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()" is causing an error.

I have a spreadsheet to track events (servicing, repairs, fuelling, etc) for my car - dates in Col A, events in B, mileage in C, prices in D.
I want to return the mileage when the next service is due, based on the mileage of the last service. Using VLOOKUP set to FALSE returns the first service mileage; set to TRUE, it returns random values. The events in Col B repeat in a random order (e.g. fuel, fuel, service, fuel, repairs, fuel, fuel, service).

I’m working on a project using Microsoft Excel 2010 and I want to add some features to facilitate saving and retrieving files process.
1.How can I save the daily created workbooks (Assume 15 files a day) in order to contain the current date (and time if possible) linked with certain cell(s) I have at my workbook forming the file name? (XYZ 2-4-2014) and/or (ABC 2-4-2014 23:11) and so on …
2.I’ve been through some other posts and I found VB code which saves the active file into specific path, but it is only useful for single workbook because multiple files are getting overwritten automatically. Is there a code which allows multiple/different files saving & creates daily folders?

I am looking for a text box code that works with a search userform.
Basically, I search using my userform find function and if there are more than one record found I want to be able to either:
1) have the records found appear in a listbox
0r
2) have the first record appear in the userform but a text box will show I am on 1 of X records and when I click a command button, go the next record, which will be 2 of x records and so on...
VB:
Private Sub cmbNext_Click() Dim FirstCl As Range
'first data Entry
Set FirstCl = Range("a2").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0)
[Code] ....
This is the code for the button that goes to the next record but I am unsure how to relate that a listbox or text box that shows the record number I am on out of the total that there are.
I would also be looking for another button that goes back one record. So i am hoping it's as easy as reversing the code for the next record function.
I am not sure if the listbox that could show all I records and one can just be selected is easier than showing the textbox with the " 1 of X records".

I'm trying to workout how to take a known initial date a repeating frequency and work out the next due date from today.
Example
Initial Date :- 1st of January 2014
Frequency :- every 5 weeks
Current Date :- 9th of March 2014
Next Due date should be :-12th of March 2014 (if I worked it out correctly from my paper calendar)
I want to use a cell formula to do this for different initial dates and varying frequency periods (the frequency will always be whole weeks i.e. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,8,10)

I am using the following track changes code on a worksheet;
Track/Report User Changes on an Excel Worksheet/Workbook
in the this Workbook. It involves two different VBA solutions I had gotten form Ozgrid. The top part is VBA code to track changes in the workbook, THe instructions are to put the statement at the top of the module which I did. When it gets to the second VBA code {Starting with Option Explicit} below, I get an error message that "Only comments may appear after End Sub, End Function or End Property.
Also, I would like to get the VBA course offered on this website, any comments?
Dim vOldVal 'Must be at top of module
Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
Dim bBold As Boolean
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub

I'm looking for click event code for a list box called lbActiveItemList that finds a match for the selected record in Column 1, to the Sheet ReturnData in Column A from row 6 on (using the G column to find the last row). Upon finding a match it should close the userform, and make the G cell for the matching record the Active Cell.

I have userform with date pickers and have text boxes overlaid on these, when I select todays date from the date picker it does not display the current date in the text box (I have 8 date pickers on the userform). If I select another date then reselect the current date it works. It has occasionally worked but why.
Below is the code for populating the text box from the Date Picker.
Private Sub DTPicker1_Change()
TextBox1.Value = DTPicker1.Value
End Sub
The initialize userform code uses the following to format and set the textbox
Code:
TextBox1.Value = Format(Date, "dd-mmm-yy")
TextBox1.Value = ""

I have two columns of dates, leave start and end dates (when people start leave i.e. annual leave). Would need to introduce column(s) to calculate how many days fell within the month including the end date and excludes weekends.

Trying to automate the period part of the impt function
To calculate current value of loan i have the below formula below with the 3 being the current period
=IPMT(4.3%/12,3,5*12,-7000)/(4.3%/12)
What i would like to do is for the period to be self calcuating from current date and the loan start date. I can return a value in days using start date - today() and aware month function returns the month number but stuggling to find a way to work out cumulative month from the start date.

I have an excel sheet wherin there is a column that has the data where in the dates are displayed and many other columns.
I get this excel every Thursday so i want to filter this date column in such a way that it give me the data related to the date of the previous week only yet there is a catch here. When i say previous week i mean.
Suppose today is 03/14/14 then i want the data from 03/07/14 till today ie Last week friday to this week full( so cant use Current week option) and then paste it in a new sheet.
I tried the Record part but in that it is taking a hard coded value as i am selecting the date myself. I dont want to change the date manually every time.
this was the macro that was created
Code:
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$BX$58").AutoFilter Field:=1, Operator:= _
xlFilterValues, Criteria2:=Array(1, "3/10/2014")
Range("A59").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=COUNT(R[-4]C:R[-1]C)"
Range("A60").Select

I created a basic excel weekly budget and would like to know how much money I have as of todays date. on the top row I have a date range from Sunday to Saturday, so it looks like this:
09-15 16-22 23-29
with the month manually put in above it.
then below I have income and expenses with a Overall below that, so basically what I want to is see the Overall value based on todays date, not sure how to do this with the weekly range and automatic current date(which is =TODAY() as far as I know) I have attached a photo as a reference.

I have cobbled together some code that searches a folder of my choice and lists the files within the folder every xxx seconds for yyy minutes. The files it finds are listed in 'Column A', and between each search during the defined yyy search duration 1 row is added to seperate them.
I require the additional code to record the search time in 'Column B' of the corresponding Row, and the search date in 'Column C' of the corresponding row. The Time & Date will simply be the Computers Time & Date at the occurrence of the relevant Search interval. The code is as follows:

I have already looked at many of the posts but I have not found the solution that I am looking for. I am familiar with VB and the NOW function.
I am trying to create a macro that will reference a cell and place a static date and time next to the cell. I want this date and time to only change when the checkbox is clicked.
I have a checkbox in E11 that is linked to F11, I would like to have G11 record the date and time that the checkbox is clicked. I have already tried the following.

i am building a data base and every day, say, at 5pm a certain cell should contain a corresponding date. In my macro I simply wrote
Range("A1").Offset(i-1,0).Formula="=Today()"
I thought naiivly it would work, but it doesn't, as the next day the date will be changed correspondingly. So, the question is: how to record todays' date (Dec 29) so that this date stays in this cell forever? Only the date, not Excel Dates & Times

Basically, I'm doing a recorded macro for work where I take an export and manipulate the data to show differences between sales from last year and this year. Also comparing this months projected sales to avg of last 6 months and also against last years this month.
The problem I'm running into is in automating the this month sales for mid-month exports. I can do it individually but I can't find a formula that will do it. Data is in one cell per month, so ex. 130 sales this month so far. I need to have it convert that to projected sales for total month based on what day it currently is.

I'm working on a spreadsheet which needs to refer to the current date. My PC checks the system date/time daily. Can I assume that if an end-user regularly connects to the internet, their PC will have a correct system date? Does anyone know if Win2000 or Win98 automatically update the system date/time when connected to the internet?

I have a report that in column A shows a ship date. These ship dates may be "Previous","Same Day", "Next Day", or "Future".
I need VBA code that will look at the day in column A and determine if it matches the current date on the computer if it does then in column W in the same row I need the string "Same Day".
If its the systems date plus 1 day column W in the same row would state "Next day".
If its the systems date plus 2 or more column W in the same row would state "Future".
If its any date prior than than the current system date then column W in the same row would state "Previous".
