I'm trying to have a macro that opens the save as window, places the name in cell f5 and then allows you to save the workbook with cell f5 as the filename. I have managed to get the save as window to come up and the cell f5 as the name, but when I press save is doesn't. Here is what I have (also, is there a way to direct this to a specific folder).

I currently have the following code that copies a range opens notepad pastes the range opens save dialog and types the file name. The problem I have is with overwriting the existing file.
Range("A1:A202").Select
Selection.Copy
Shell "notepad.exe", vbNormalFocus
SendKeys "^V"
SendKeys "^s"
SendKeys "Total_IEDs_Hour_Of_Day_2009.xml"
SendKeys "{TAB}"
SendKeys "a"
SendKeys "{ENTER}"
Everything works fine to this point. Then it opens the do you want to overwrite dialog and I cant get it to hit yes.

I want to run a VBA macro when Excel opens if and only if the file name contains a specific string or if and only if the worksheet name contains a specific string. The file only contains one worksheet. For example, if the file name contains the string "SalaryData" or the sheet name contains "SalaryData", then I want to run a VBA macro to delete some of the confidetial information. Idealy, this would be done as the file is opening before it is displayed.

In the last couple of weeks my copy of Excel 2010 has started acting strange. Now when I double click an xls or xlsx file in Windows Explorer, it tries to open a new instance of Excel, whic means that it tries to reopen Personal.xlsm and Personal.xlsb, and finds they are already open, so it gives me an error message. Previously it perfectly happily opened the document in another window in the same instance, which is presumably much more memory efficient quite apart from the file locking problem mentioned. How do I get it back to the way it was before? Is this another of MS's famous overnight downgrades?

When I had Excel 2010 and now with Excel 2013, whenever I open a workbook, it opens and displays to the row AFTER the last row of data. (So, if my last row of data is 38205, it will open starting at row 38206...hence I see no data until I hit Ctrl+Home). I have not found anything about this on the internet and I cannot find a setting. I need Excel to open to A1 so I don't freak out every time I open a workbook and see no data.

When I click the general Excel program icon that use to just open a blank excel workbook, it now always opens the same existing file (apples.xls) If I am clicking on a different existing file (pears.xls), excel opens pears.xls and apples.xls.

The same two workbooks open when I open any other workbook. They also open up when I open Excel by itself.

I am very new to programming in excel, so bear with me. I need to have a window that pops up when you load excel. I need it to say something like
If A2 > A1, then the popup should say "value exceeded in row 1"
If B2 > B1, then the popup should say "value exceeded in row 2"
If both of the statements above are true, then I would like both of the errors to be in the same window/popup, instead of two seperate ones. I hope thats clear.

I am in a middle of creating macro that makes some calculations in a file downloaded from SAP.
This Macro is in a form of a userform with 8 optionBoxes more then10 Option Buttons then after clicking on a specific button a certain action is being performed it looks like this:
Capture.JPG - PicShot.pl
The code is in one file and I would like the macro operations to be performed on data that are in separate file.
Both are open while perforing macro action, and sometimes I'm getting a stop because macro is being performed in a file with code.
Referencing it with something like:
Windows(FN).activate where FN is defined as the name of a file that is being prepared by "Prepare Template" button.

I have a spread sheet that I have written that has 2 html links in it. The links work, but they only open in one browser tab. How do I get them to open in different tabs? Opening in two different browser sessions would be acceptable too. I have Excel 2007 and IE 9 but the users may have different versions.

I'm working on an Excel workbook that is opened by a batch file, updates information, copy and pastes that information to PowerPoint, and closes itself after spending two minutes idle. This is all for an employee communication monitor that runs 24/7. However, I don't like that the Excel spreadsheet displays on the monitors for two minutes every time it opens and runs.
Right now I was using the bit of code below to minimize the workbook when it was done copying and pasting the information. It works fine for the monitors, but the application is not visible in the Taskbar.
Sub Workbook_Open()
...
Application.Visible = False
End Sub
Is there anyway to minimize the workbook while keeping the window visible in the taskbar?

I compared data between excel worksheets all the time, well recently my computer was upgraded from Windows XP to Windows 7 and since then I have not been able to figure out how to have an Excel file to open in the Excel window selected(or last active window) when I have more than one workbook open. Is there a way to do this?

How to use an Excel worksheet I have, so I decided to make a button with a macro, which when clicked a kind of message box pops up and you can read the tutorial. When you are done you just press ok and the pop up window closes.
I know about vba I just have to use msgbox, keep on adding lines with the text and that's it! But after many attempts I found out that it ain't that easy.
[Code] ......
So I made something like this:
[Code] ....
but at a point I got this error: "Too many lines continuations".
I wanna make something that looks a bit like this: p69pxC8.jpg
But way simpler, with my text, a scroll bar to roll up and down to read and an ok button at the end. I don't need special text with hyperlinks or anything at all, plain text does the job.
It just now crossed my mind, would it be viable to also add a "Print" button next to the "Ok" button in the pop up windows with the tutorial, so when the "Print" button is clicked, the tutorial is printed?

I have this module that is supposed to delete rows containing some words and those that are entirely empty..
The macro works fine when I open the file for the first time (excel as well) but subsequently if i try to run it again, the macro doesnt work anymore. What could possibly be causing this bug?
Private Sub DeleteRows()
ScreenUpdating = True
Dim Rng1 As Range
Dim X As String
X = " TOTAL"
Do
Set Rng1 = ActiveSheet.UsedRange. Find(X)
If Rng1 Is Nothing Then
Exit Do
Else
Rows(Rng1.Row).Delete
End If
Loop............

We are running Office 2010 part of Office Professional Plus 1010 (corporate install). We have added both the Analysis Toolpak and Analysis Toolpak - VBA to the add-Ins and have the button on the toolbar, however when we click on the button, we don't get the popup window allowing the user to pick the analysis tool they want to use. Have tried this on a number of PCs (we all run the same version) and it doesn't work on any of them.
What we have to do do make this toolpak work?

I have tried to define an alternative start-up folder (my goal is to have a PUBLIC.XLSB to store Macros every one can use)
BUT: When I do this, Excel does not start with any open workbook anymore. It starts with a blue background, and need to click "New" first for a workbook to open and work in.
How do I avoid this? One solution that would work, but requires the user to have Macros activated, is to add a workbook during the opening of Excel, but I would like to avoid this.

I am using Excel2010.
My sheet displays values collected from a database via an AddIn. The values are updated by pressing CTRL+G (AddIn function).
I have an OnTime macro running SendKeys "^G" to update the values every minute. When the values exceed a certain limit, a sound is played from a custom Alarm function.
This all works as long as the excel window is active.
But if excel is minimized or another window is opened, the values stop updating until Excel is active again.
When the values dont update the sound is not played and that defeats the purpose of the sheet.

When I double click an excel spreadsheet in windows explorer it opens spreadsheet then closes it then opens it again.
This doesnt happen if I have an instance of excel already running.
I thought it might be to do with file association and the open with option.

This is a follow-on to a great solution provided by Shg and Rylo. Here is the link. http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...new-sheet.html
My users have run in to an interesting issue with the file. Each time the files opens it has the same 5 questions selected. What I need the code to do is randomize the questions each time the sheet is opened. Basically, the users seem to have a problem using the "make quiz" button, so they have requested that I make sure that the quiz randomizes each time it is opened.

I would really like to know if there is a way that when my workbook opens if the following can happen?
- Not display the tabs (NOT "HIDE" the sheets, just not be able to view the tabs themselves)
- Go to full screen (not display ribbon)

I have a spreadsheet that can't be password protected but this doesn't mean just anyone should be accessing it. Is there a way to record who opens it and when? Ideally I could place some code into the spreadsheet that recorded on a sheet who has opened it and when. This will detract certain nosy people from accessing it!
