I'm trying to use the find function to make my macros easier to handle, but I don't know how to run through all instances of what I'm trying to find and then stop. Currently I just have my find function in an infinite loop and it stops when it runs into an error. This works well I guess, but I'd like to know how to stop after the last instance without error. Here's the code that I have been using:
View 4 RepliesI have a while loop to color my rows down to row 2000 but all the time color way more than needed. I like to change the while loop or replace with better code statement that will see last row of (A:A) that has data and stop there, then to keep color code rows to 2000.

Columns("A:A").Find(What:="Supplier", LookIn:=xlValues).Activate

Worksheets.Add after:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
ActiveSheet.Paste
The following macro searches Sheet1 for a value in a user defined textbox. When it finds the value it copies the row and and pastes the row in another sheet and then loops. My problem is i need to add a "do until" so that i will stop. I just don't know what code to add after the "until" to have it search the sheet once and then stop. Right now it will repeat infinitly. I need to know how to get it to stop once it looks through all the cells once. My current code is:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Do
Sheets("sheet1").Activate
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Cells.Find(What:=TextBox1, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
False, SearchFormat:=False).Select
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Copy....................
When I remove "Release date:" from "Release date:24 December 2008," excel will automatically change the text to "24-Dec-08." Yes, I did try to format the column to "text" before using find and replace.
This wouldn't be a problem, except that half the dates are in Dutch, so only half the dates are changed, which means that I can't make all date formats in a column uniform.
my excel sheet runs through a lot of calculations, opens Flowmaster, a simulations program, passes on data, receivs data and so on. Is there any way to have a user input to stop the whole simulation. During the first tries I had a lot of break point in my debugger. But now I want to have a button to hit or better just some keys to hit to stop it without using the ctrl+alt+del which closes everything.

the macro's that i want to stop running, are all single macro's which i activate with only 1 button i created.
i like something like this:
if "A1"(this is the cell where i have my updated clock) == A2 (the time i insert here stops the macro's at this time) do stop Macro's
All I want to do is to stop a routine when I press the Cancel key on the user form that the routine called. I have tried "stop", "quit", "end", "abort", et. al. This seems so simple but I cannot figure out how to do it.
View 7 Replies View RelatedIf you run it now, ctrl t, it produces letters and changes alphabets as it hits a yellow box. If i change or add a yellow box, the letters change fine. The macro works perfectly, but instead of inputting the range or K3 to what ever, i would like to to run this macro and stop once it sees the row with the sort number of 4. ( this changes row postion depending on which sheet im working on, this is the problem).

Each of the timdown procedures adds another segment to the countdown clock (if you don't click "Exit" before the five seconds are up, the file closes without saving. All well and good.
Now, if you DO click the "Exit" button, you get a message that the close has been aborted and, upon clearing that messagebox, the file closes anyway!
I think it's something to do with killing all remaining OnTime instructions but I don't know how to go about stopping the clock.
Can we use excel as a stop watch, with pause and continue menu? We are going to have a mini basketball tournament and I was assigned to be a timer. I want to impress my friend by using excel as a timer.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI have an Excel add-in that makes use of an Application-level event handler to detect when workbooks are activated / deactivated, and adjusts the command bars / ribbon accordingly. The add-in also includes a developer mode, so I have a shortcut key to stop the add-in while running, set the .IsAddIn property =False, and then change whatever settings I feel that I need to.
Problem is, when I run the shortcut to stop the add-in, and then run my shortcut to restart it, my event handling no longer works. I've done some MsgBox testing, and verified that the class module's "Initialize" event gets called, but subsequent events (i.e. WorkbookActivate) go unnoticed.
I'm wondering if Excel will allow me to start an Application event handler using WithEvents, stop it (by setting the class module variable = Nothing), and then re-start the event handling.

I use the following code to insert and delete a background picture upon opening and closing my workbook, but everytime it closes it asks me if I would like to save it even if I've already saved it just before closing. It does this because after the background is removed it senses a change. I would like to get this to stop, is it possible??
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Sheets("Instructions").Select
Range("A1").Select
Sheets("instructions").SetBackgroundPicture Filename:= _

How to produce a formula that will stop counting after the day is over. For example, i have a spreadsheet that is calculating the total number of pending questions for multiple project types which are found on seperate tabs. The first tab of my spreadsheet is a Summary tab which displays the statistics of each project tab including how many questions we have pending. The number of questions are calculated by picking up how many cells display "Y" in the PQ (pending questions) column of each tab.
Our current process is to type in the number displayed in the summary that shows how many questions we have pending. What that does, is freeze the total number of questions we had pending for that day. I am trying to make this more automated by coming up with a formula that will freeze this number on its own.
If I write out what I am trying to do, it would go something like this:
Count cells with "Y" and stop counting after today.
Current formula in cell:
=COUNTIF(MDU!$L$6:$L$1000,"=Y")+COUNTIF(SDU!$L$6:$L$1000,"=Y")
I have a program that requires the last 8 days to be total, unless there are 2 days off in a row. So my cells need to sum the previous 8, but then stop when two zeros show in the column and then restart following. One zero should continue to total the previous 8 days. As shown below, for 1/10/14 I should see 57.5. The sum needs to restart on 1/13/14 to show a total of 10.5. I have tried multiple formulas with no luck.
Col A Col B
1/5/140
1/6/1412
1/7/1412
1/8/1412
1/9/1411
1/10/1410.5
1/11/140
1/12/140

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet that contains a list of email addresses. If I click in the cell that contains the email address it automatically launches my email software and this is about to drive me nuts. Is there a way to stop Excel from automatically launching the email program.
I work in a college and I use this list to send out information to the students I work with. I select the student I need, then I copy and paste their email addresses to my email program. Sometimes I need to update their address or I may have entered it wrong.
When I click on the address cell, it automaically opens my email program or if the program is already open, it starts a new email to the student. I guess this could also be in my email program and if so, is there a way in Excel to make this just look like text and no an email address. It appears that the minute you put an @ symbol in something it automatically becomes an email address. Could that default be turned off.

I am using a 2007 excel spreadsheet and on parts of it I can't just highlight one horizontal row of cells, it wants to highlight three down. I suppose that I have asked it to do this but I can't for the life of me undo it.
I have tried unmerging cells, cutting and pasting somewhere else, but nothing works.
Can anyone help me please as it's driving me to distraction?
This is probably something very simple, but I need to find a way to stop row heights expanding when text in a cell wraps. Basically, I have a spreadsheet of projects, and one column is for 'notes'. When the text in this column starts to wrap, Excel automatically increases the row height to make all the text visible - but I don't want that to happen.
I guess there's a button to press somewhere, but I can't find it!!!

Strange enough when I only enter a number like 5 it doesn’t auto increment.
And if I add a dot behind the 6 then either.
But I just want it AutoFill that what I have inserted in the box!
I have a excel sheet with a macro set up. On the main sheet is all the information with expiry dates.
