VBA Code To Select Specific Sheet Upon Open Of Workbook?
Jan 11, 2013I am looking for the code that I would use so that when the workbook is opened it would always open with "Main" sheet.
View 4 RepliesI am looking for the code that I would use so that when the workbook is opened it would always open with "Main" sheet.
View 4 RepliesI need the code to allow a user to select a column of their choice in an open workbook of their choice so that data can be lookuped up and changed. I am happy to create the code to do the lookup/changing, however the nearest I have found is the use of an inputbox which is limited to the active spreadsheet only. Some people have said the input box could be used over to another spreadsheet but I have not found that to work.
What I will need returned is the workbook name, sheet name and column. That will allow me to point to that and do the task.
This code could be used by 5 people and those 5 people could be running it on 20 different spreadsheets.
I thought this would be easy to find but it has eluded me. When using Excel normally, if you do a simple lookup formula, or create pivot function, excel prompts the user to select the workbook/sheet.
I recorded a Macro to open a specific sheet and it works fine however I want to go to the next step and have the sheet open to a specified column in the sheet based on the column in cell 'H2' on the current sheet.

View 7 Replies View RelatedThis is a shot in the dark. I have a workbook with 12 sheets, one for each month of the year. Each month is divided into the different weeks of the month. For example sheet January is divided into:
Week 1: 1/1/12 through 1/7/12
Week 2: 1/8/12 through 1/14/12
and so on:
I would like my workbook to open on the cell containing the date range for that particular date.
For example, if I open the workbook on 1/10/12 I need the workbook to open on the cell range that contains Week 2: 1/8/12 through 1/14/12.
Need to have a particular workbook open at a specific time...
I wrote this and placed it in a Personal.xls module, did not run automatically. I then placed the 2nd SUB() in the "This Workbook" and nothing. Where or how is the proper way to run this...

Problem: I want a macro to detect if a workbook is open so I can skip the workbook and move onto the next item. I do not want the user to be prompted in any way. I do not want the workbook to be shared. I simply want to pass over the workbook (but be aware I have passed it over).
--Long Version--
About forty team members have their own workbooks and at day’s end the team leader uses a macro to poll each team member’s workbook in turn to gather work results. When gathering these results the macro also needs to write some admin data to each workbook.
I am aware of the workbook sharing option in Excel, but I am wary of using it. It is not a show stopper if a team member’s workbook is already open and work is not gathered on a particular day – we’ll get it the next day. I just need to be able to trap the event and manage it. The central command I use to access a team member’s workbook is :
Workbooks.Open FileName:=WorkBookName................
The issue I am having is that the code fails if there is ever a "sheet2" left open. I need it to always target the sheet Data5m.
What seems to happen is the sheet targets the first available sheet. This book only consists of 1 sheet, but generates other sheets later, sometimes extra sheets are left open.

I want to create a series of hyperlinks in excel to pdf's stored on a local drive/CD as a kind of database. This much I can do with a nifty bit of code I saw someone put up here as follows;
Sub Run_Local_PDF()
MyPath = "C:Program FilesAdobeReader 9.0ReaderAcroRd32.exe"
myFile = "C:Documents and SettingsmynameDesktoppdffilename.pdf"
Shell MyPath & " " & myFile, vbNormalFocus
End Sub
Which works great and is sitting snug in a module. However, the document I am linking to has various anchors in it which exisit as sectionheaders. One of which is "Contents".
Is there a quick way I can alter my exisitng VB code to open at one of these anchors?
I need to error check to see if a worbook is open or not. if it is not open i need it to open it. i supplied the code i am trying but it is not working. I keep all my workbooks in XLSTART.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI managed to create some code that will connect to a workbook and take the data from there.
It is kind of SQL mixed with VBA. I just got this by finding it in google (I don't have the link handy now).
What the file does, is it will take 2 columns from a workbook called "Test.xls" and then take out 2 columns "Name" and "ID".
The only thing is, this is only a test and not the actual files I need to open. the files are always saved on the same folder, but the name is the day of the export of it. So when I export a file today, it will get 2014.09.10.xls. The sheet (only 1) will also get that name.
How could I change the below code that it will take that file based on today's date and read from the sheet with today's data?
VB:
Sub sbADO()
Dim sSQLQry As String
Dim ReturnArray
Dim Conn As New ADODB.Connection

I want a specific workbook to be always on manual but when I open other workbooks I want them to remain on automatic even though the first workbook is set on manual through vba code. Is that possible to be done?
This is the code I run:
Private Sub Workbook_Activate()
With Application
.Calculation = xlManual
.MaxChange = 0.001
.CalculateBeforeSave = False
[Code] .....
I know that Application. Calculation refers to all open workbooks but I don't know the code to specify the manual calculation to this workbook only while others are open.
I have been recording different sets of commands then copying/pasteing them together to complete what I want. I have tried to clean it up as best I can but im sure it does things it does not need to. Is there a way to tell it to select all sheets in "Book2.xls" then remove the formatting (font color,comments,shading) rather than using the Array and naming each and every sheet?
What this will end up doing is openeing about 12 files, copying specific tabs from each of those files and pasteing them all to the same workbook (in this example it would be Book2). Then removing the formatting.
Workbooks.Open Filename:="F:123Book2.xls"
Windows("Book1.xls").Activate
Cells.Select
Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3")).Select
Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3")).Copy Before:=Workbooks("Book2.xls").Sheets(1)
Sheets(Array("Sheet1", "Sheet2", "Sheet3")).Select
Cells.Select
Selection.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
Selection.Font.ColorIndex = 0
Selection.ClearComments
If i have a sheet with multiple tabs can I somehow make excel open that file on a particular tab rather than the tab that the user was on when they saved/closed it.

I am trying to write code to open a new (blank) workbook while in an existing workbook (I am then going to pass data between the two which is easy). When I try to record the code to get the syntax for opening a new workbook it will not record any code. I also need to name the new workbook based on text in a cell in the existing workbook. I just saw before posting this that the code;
workbooks.add
will open a new workbook now I just need to name the new workbook based on text in my existing workbook.
I have data in 2 different workbooks, and I need to transfer all data in 'Jx_ex1' to sheet1 in the 'template' workbook, and all data in 'Gr_ex1' to sheet2 in 'template' workbook. All data should be transferred to the same cell numbers, from A1 to Y5000. I actually have loads of workbooks to transfer to the template but if I have an example with the two then im sure I can work out how to modify it. All files will be in the same folder.

I want to get a copy of worksheet from specific workbook to active work book in which i want a copy of sheet get moved.
I have a workbook with lots of code to automate several things that I do. It does a great job at doing things I need it to do, but it takes foreeeveeerrr to save the workbook. The code has made the workbook a large file, and it takes a few minutes to save it. Is there a way to skip saving the code everytime you open the workbook. I don't ever need to change to code so I don't need to save it every time.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a simple bit of code which I can add to a button which will always select the next tab along?
Looking to add a 'next tab' button at the top of each sheet so it can be run through quickly, almost as a presentation.
I could just do
Sheets("TabName").Select
But that would involve doing a new one for each sheet, and would need modifying if I then re-ordered the sheets.
I have a macro that checks if a username is in a particular list, and if it is, it unhides certain sheets in the workbook.
The code runs fine if I just run it as a macro or off a command button, but I am trying to execute it when the workbook opens and I keep getting a 57121, Application defined or object defined error.
The code is below;
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
DoEvents
Dim Res1 As VbMsgBoxResult
Dim GovRng As Range
For Each GovRng In Sheets("Map").Range("GovernanceMembers")
If GovRng.Value = Application.UserName Then Goto 111
Next GovRng
Exit Sub
