VBA - DDE Link

May 6, 2009

I have created a DDE link which is connected to Excel and refreshes on every change but the problem is it's only 1 row in height, so as new data comes in I lose the previous. Instead I want the old data to move down a row and I want this to continue as new data comes in.

Formula That Uses Link In A Cell To Create Offset Link

Jun 28, 2013

I have two worksheets, one with detail monthly information and one with YTD information. So let's say the three numbers I want to capture in the YTD sheet are in columns B, G and I on the monthly sheet. January's data might be in B5, G5 and I5. February's data is in B12, G12 and I12 and so on.

On the YTD sheet in cell C2 I link to Monthly!B5 and in C3 I link to Monthly!B12 so cells C2 to C13 on the YTD sheet show the monthly totals from column B on the detail sheet. On the YTD sheet, cells C20 to C31 show the monthly totals from column G on the monthly sheet, so cells G5, G12, etc. And finally, cells C40 to C51 on the YTD sheet show monthly totals form column I on the monthly sheet.

In the past I've always created all these links manually. After creating the links in C2 to C13 on the YTD sheet, is there a way to use a formula in C21 that uses the link in C2 to create a link for G5?

Using Variable In A Link?

Mar 26, 2014

I have a couple of workbooks, workbook1 pulls information from closed workbook2. The current link works fine, it returns the value that is in cell E10 from the worksheet 'Totals' from within the workbook 'Week 12 Yellow.xlsm'.

[Code]....

What I would like to do is make two parts of this link variable; Name (so 'Marc owens' in the above example) Worksheet (so 'Week 12 Yellow.xlsm in the above example)

As stated, the worksheet in the formula will be closed so I cannot use the 'Indirect' option. I have come across a lot of talk about the 'Concatenate' option but this this isn't working, don't know if its the way I have the formula or if I need something extra adding.

Cell A1 = name variable & Cell A2 = worksheet variable

[Code] ......

But this just returns "G:HelpdeskTotalsMarc Owens[Week 12 Yellow.xlsm]Totals!%E%10" in the cell the formula is in.

I've changed it so that it is

[Code] ......

But again I get "='G:HelpdeskTotalsMarc Owens[Week 12 Yellow.xlsm]Totals'!%E%10" returned which is the same formula as originally used (top of page) but it doesn't return a value.

Highlighting A Link

Jun 7, 2008

I have created a data base of all the spare parts we have at work.

In the last column I have entered a hyperlinks that take you to a layout of the store and shows you where the part is located i.e. 1C would take you to shelf 1 level C on the drawing in another tab in the same Excel workbook.

I would be pleased if anyone could help me by suggesting away that I can make the destination cell highlighted or more prominent once you have clicked on the link.

Also can I make the Find window automatically appear when the workbook is first opened?

Link To Another Cell

Nov 17, 2008

I would like to have a link in a merged set of cells that puts the insertion point to another cell. Scenario: In cell k30, the user puts in the amount of credit card debt a individual has, and scripts the user based on that information. Later on, they get a more accurate running total of the amount of debt and need to change the amount in k30 for an accurate quote. After ther running total, in cell j172(a merged box for instructions) i instruct the user to be sure to enter the new total in cell K30.

Questions:
1. Is there a way to put a button or a link that would put the insertion point back up to K30 automatically, but allow the user to change it themselves and not change it automatically?

Link Books Together?

Jan 19, 2010

I have 4 workbooks that I want to link together. The first three are exactly the same as each other in the setup, cell size ect, ect. The forth book or "book4" is the book that I want link to the other three books. I am planing on using a countif formula to add up certain symbols in designated cell ranges. Eg, Make a formula in Book 4, cell B4 to count all the black triangle symbols "" in the cell range B6 to B35 in Book1, Book2 and Book3 on each work sheet (There is 31 work sheets which represents a work sheet for each day of the month). If I can just get the formula for doing this I can aply it to everything else.

One last question, these 4 books that will be linked togther are used for each month. So every month I save them under a that months name, but if I have the books linked I will always have to keep updateding the formulas in book4 b/c it will still have the formulas for the previous month. Is there a better way to setup what I want to do or will I just have to keep changing the formulas each month as I update?

How To Link Up Cells From One To Another

Jun 20, 2011

Here it is

1. I want to put the AMOUNT on E6
2. from there on F6 put the account number on there (FOR)
3. Now once the account number is put on F6 it would link up the same account number on (H6-H32)
4. then when its linked up from those cells put the amount where you typed it up from to move to that account to THIS MONTH (J6-J32)

so from E6 to F6 it would link up, put an amount of 100.00 on E6 and an account number on F6.

Once account number is typed up it would link up to the account number to the other side to H6 -H32

Finally the amount that you typed up from E6 would link up to the account number and pop up to J6 - J32 (THIS MONTH) and if you put on other spaces on the cells it would add up different amounts and put account number and it would link up and the amount would move to THIS MONTH.

I have a macro that works across 2 workbooks. In the middle of the macro, a message box pops up "This workbook contains links to other data sources" and I need to select yes or no.

Link To 20 Out Of 60 Sheets

Jan 29, 2010

I have a cell that a I want to get the results of a SUM to 20 cells in 20 worksheet out of 60 worksheets. When I enter my' =sum( shows up with serial_numbers. When I go to each sheet and select the cell I want (same in all worksheets) like in sheet 2 it shows my sheet name and cell. But when I go to my sheet 3 and select that cell it replaces sheet 2 with sheet 3 it does not keep adding the sheets with the cell numbers. When I select all sheet tabs it still only changes the sheet number in stead of running a range. I could type all the sheets names and cell but lots of work and I have a lot of this type of ranges to do.

Link Updating

Aug 19, 2007

I have links in one workbook to a series of other workbooks. Using Excel 2002. I am making selecting changes in the source workbooks and not automatically recalculating the workbook. I know what is changing and am just recalculting that by clicking on the cell and going to the end of the formula and pressing enter.

The problem is that when I go into the master workbook to which this data is linked, it seems unwilling to update the data - and it sounds like this may be because I didn't recalculate the entire workbook.

Is this in fact what happens? Any way around it. Recalculating the workbooks in which the source links are found would take lots of time and I'd rather avoid that.

Increment A Link By 1 Each Row

Nov 16, 2006

I'm trying to increment a link to a file in my macro by 1 after each row. For example:

Row 1 "<a href="/ ai/grtcon/06-07-q2/gc1_e.html">
Row 2 "<a href="/ai/grtcon/06-07-q2/gc2_e.html">
Row 3 "<a href="/ai/grtcon/06-07-q2/gc3_e.html"> and so on...

I've indicated in the code in the first array where the increment should go (I'm not sure if it belongs in the array).

Option Base 1 ' sets first array element to 1, not 0
Sub makehtmlGrtCon1()
'Dimension all variables.
Dim DestFile As String
Dim FileNum As Integer
Dim ColumnCount As Long
Dim RowCount As Long
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim LastColumn As Long
Dim OpnTags As Variant
Dim ClsTags As Variant
' Array defines html tags to be used before each cell.
OpnTags = Array("<tr class=""size-smaller"">" & vbCrLf & " <td><a href=""/ai/grtcon/06-07-q2/gc" & INCREMENTHERE & "_e.html"">", _

Link To All Sheets

Jun 20, 2007

Pre is where the user type information and these information would then shared throughout all the sheets. There are a total of 5 things that I need to be done (Those indicated with numbers are the ones that need to be done).

1st thing: How to highlight the days for all the TERM BREAKS?

2nd thing: How to link the dates for the Public holidays to P1_B1 and highlight it red. Without using conditional formatting because there maybe more than 3 public holidays.

3rd thing: Number of groups entered here would create rows of group according to the number of groups entered in Pre

4th thing: The number of classes entered here would create the number of rows for each particular subject. Eg. English has 3groups so there are a total of 3 rows.

5th thing: The number entered for the number of programmes would create new sheets with respective to the number entered there.

*I have to only enter no the Pre sheet and it will automatically link the information across the rest of the sheets without the need to press RUN. *
