I'm creating a "welcome" page to the workbook with instructions on how to update data. The data between the 20 sheets consists of pivot tables, charts and summary data. The Visible sheets are data for management's review (all protected). The 3 hidden sheets are pivot tables that the user needs to pull data from and the very hidden sheets are not to be seen by anyone.
In my "welcome" page, I added the instructions of how to update data, but wanted an area where I could assign a checkbox or button to click on for the user to unhide my 3 hidden sheets (say Sheet1, Sheet2 and Sheet3). I do not want it to unhide my very hidden sheets. Then, when the information needed is retrieved from those sheets, I would like the user to use a checkbox or button to hide the 3 hidden sheets again. Is there a way to do this?
I tried creating custom view but couldn't do that because of the pivot tables (the option was disabled). I'm a beginner in VBA so don't even know how to begin.
Macro 1- hides Sheet1 and unhides Sheet2 Macro 2- Hides Sheet2 and unhides Sheet1
I used the macro recorder to attempt to make this work but am running into a problem if Macro1 is run two times consecutively. In this situation the macro displays a debugging error b/c Sheet1 is hidden. Is there a way to get around this...possibly using an if then statement?
I have 16 sheets and 4 additional sheets that will kind of 'Group' these 16sheets. For example: I have 'Sheet1', 'Sheet2', 'Sheet3'......, 'Sheet16'. 4 additional Sheets are: 'Group1', 'Group2', 'Group3', 'Group4'.
I need a help with macro so that when this workbook is open all 20 sheets ('Sheet1', 'Sheet2', 'Sheet3'......, 'Sheet16') will go into hiding and only 4 additional Sheets ('Group1', 'Group2', 'Group3', 'Group4') will be visible. Now, these 4 sheets will have the command button links to the following sheets:
This being said, when you click on each command buttons, the respective sheets will open up and when click on 'Hide All', all of the open sheets for that *additional sheet' for example sheet 'Group1' will go into hiding again.
I have a workbook which has roughly 50 sheets. What I'm trying to do is automatically hide/unhide sheets based on the cell values in the first sheet. So in sheet1 cell A1 i would a value of FALSE which would trigger sheets1, 2, & 3 to hide, when that value changes to TRUE then those same sheets would unhide. I need to replicate that for the 10 corresponding sets of sheets, but for each grouping of sheets a different cell in sheet1 would be the trigger, cell A2 = sheets 4 - 10, cell A3 = sheets 11 - 20, etc.
I have several workbooks, and the workbooks can include several sheets. Is there's an easy way to create a macro so the user selection to be hidden or unhidden is hidden or unhidden in all sheets in the workbook. E.g. if the user selection is to hide rows 54-189, the macro hides rows 54-189 in all sheets in the workbook.
Using Excel 2007, I have a workbook with 7 sheets. The first one is a Navigation Page where I have checkboxes (form controls, not active X) with the names of the other 6 sheets. When the box(es) are checked, the sheet(s) become visible. I have accomplished this by assigning macros I recorded.
I need to now add the opposite: When the box(es) are unchecked, the sheets become hidden. From googling and looking for other threads/forums here, I gather that I need to add code/ VBA, but I know nothing about these at all.
There is 2 parts to my question and I will explain them as best as i can.
1. I have a front sheet and 12 other sheets ( 1 for each month of the year) they all have the same layout. On my front sheet I want to create a button which will capture the sheet onto my front sheet for the current month, whether this means to make 12 buttons to choose which month is displayed on the front sheet or one that detects the date by system time i dont mind.
2. These 12 sheets will ideally be hidden and what I am wanting is again, on the front sheet 12 buttons for each sheet to bring up the corresponding hidden sheet so they can be viewed, and then on each of the 12 sheets another button which will hide them and return the user to the front sheet.
I have a workbook that contains approx 50 sheets and will grow to somewhere in the region of 200.
The majority of sheets, which contain the raw data referenced by the renaining sheets, are hidden. I will occasionally need to update the data in some of those hidden sheets and would like an easy / quick way of unhiding them.
The front page has several comboboxes which select the page needed for the calculation being performed, eg I select Chapter2 in the first combobox, section 4 in the second and page 12 in the 3rd. The output is combined / abbreviated into into a cell eg Ch2-Sec4-P12. That being the name of a sheet I then use INDIRECTs to retrieve the data I want and place it in a spare sheet, that works well.
I'd like to do the same to select the sheet to unhide. I can setup the comboboxes to give the name of the sheet I want to unhide / hide in a cell but then I'm stuck;
How can I use the contents of a cell in place of the sheet name in a macro command such as Sheets("data").Visible = Not (Sheets("data").Visible) ?
I have this file in which I have 25 empty rows in between different categories. On the side of each category there is a plus sign which is supposed to unhide an empty row below the last used one, and a minus sign which should hide the last empty row within the category (i.e. mobilization, earthworks...). I faced many problems and tried to simplify it as much as possible (trying the code for only one category, msgboxes with the values to understand what was going on) but no luck. The problem that I have been stuck at the moment is that when I try to count the rows from C73 to the last used row, it bypasses the hidden ones. I have a mess of a code and a print screen which I am attaching. printscreen.jpg
VB: Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick( _ ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean) Dim rInt As Range
Trying to hide a rows based on value being inserted to A1 = 0 (if value is >0, then unhide), but it's not working.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Range("A1").Value = 0 Then Rows("33:42").EntireRow.Hidden = True Else Rows("33:42").EntireRow.Hidden = False End If
I highlighted a selection of rows and clicked HIDE, now I want to unhide certain rows and when I highlight the rows above and below and right click - unhide nothing happens. I need to Unhide to find something.
I've come across a spreadsheet where certain rows and columns (typically top rows or left columns) are hidden; however, there's no way to unhide them (the unhide function is grayed out) and it doesn't seem to be protected or no visible macros/vba on the file.
I have a spreadsheet that has 28 columns for time entries. Typically only the first 12 columns are used, so I would like to hide the remaining 16 columns (which makes the spreadsheet much more user-friendly). It would probably be nearly impossible to teach all of them how to Unhide the remaining columns (and re-Hide), plus I would like to use the full-screen function when employees enter thier times. I would like to use a form control in the column heading so that when the employees 'check' it, it will Unhide and then re-Hide the columns. Any way to do this? Seems like a VB thing to me (out of my league, but would be happy to add one in!).
I am looking for a way to hide and unhide tabs. The first sheet of the workbook is an information sheet and I have a dropdown box in cell N3 to select Yes or NO to correct financial issues. If I select NO I would like to also hide tabs for sheet 4 and sheet 22.
I have used this for hiding rows:
If ActiveSheet.Cells(2, 2).Value = 0 Then Rows(146).Hidden = True
I once saw an excel sheet where I could hide or unhide a section by some + and - signes above the column-letters.... I have searched for this but I only get the ordinary hide/unhide solutions.
I put the correct cell in place $K$23, now I want to hide a worksheet called "DutyCode" when info!$k$23 is blank or has "xx" or "XX" in the cell, and then unhide "DutyCode" when the number 27 is inputed in info!$k$23
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Address "$k$23" Then Exit Sub If Target.Value = 1234 Then Worksheets("Sheet2").Visible = True Else Worksheets("Sheet2").Visible = False End If End Sub
I am using the code below on my spreadsheet. What is does is hides Row #1 until Row 41 is reached. When 41 is reached Row 1 appears. Unfortunately (for me) I need to alter this code and was wondering if anyone could tell me if it is possible. First the Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Rows(1).Hidden (Target.Row < 41) Then ActiveSheet.Unprotect Application.ScreenUpdating = False Rows(1).Hidden = Target.Row < 41 ActiveSheet.Protect Application.ScreenUpdating = True End If
End Sub
What I would now like to happen is that Row 1 stays hidden UNTIL Row 16 is OFF Screen. Can that be done? What has happened is that my row 16 contains the heads for my input table. I have now had to set the rows to resize to accommodate data input. If no rows are resized then Row 16 stays visible until I reach row 40. When row 41 is reached then Row 1 appears which contains my headers as well. I hope this makes sense to someone...
SO, IF I can get a code that would keep row one hidden until Row 16 is off screen then it will not matter what rows expand.
I made this simple little macro to hide/unhide a row on a different sheet based on a check box. The row hides fine. The problem I have is unhide. I uncheck the box, but the row stays hidden. What am I missing to make this little gem come to life? This is for tracking popcorn sales for scouting and I'm trying to make it as easy to use as possible.
Sub Patrol1_Scout1() If True Then Sheets("Show_n_Deliver_Sold").Rows("7:7").EntireRow.Hidden = True End If
If False Then Sheets("Show_n_Deliver_Sold").Rows("7:7").EntireRow.Hidden = False End If End Sub
It seems there may be an event or something that happens when a row is hidden/unhidden. I have this simple function that gives TRUE / FALSE if the Cell's Row or Column is Hidden.
Public Function IsVisible(MyRange As Range) IsVisible = ((Rows(MyRange.Row).Hidden = False) And _ (Columns(MyRange.Column).Hidden = False)) End Function And a formula in a cell =IsVisible(A1)
When I hide/unhide the ROW - the formula recalculates automatically without having to do the F2 Enter thing..
But when I hide/unhide the COLUMN, it does not recalculate automatically. I have to do the F2 Enter thing to get it to recalculate.
Even putting Application.Volatile in there doesn't do it.
I'm just curious why it recalculates when the row is hidden/unhidden but not when the column is hidden/unhidden? Is there a hidden event that could be used? I often see posts of people trying to prevent hiding rows.
I 'd like to open a xls where a combo appears only when i select a specific cell. I created a combo in excel 97 (combobox1) and also i wrote some code for its behavior but it doesnt work.
Private Sub workbook_load() ComboBox1.AddItem ("YES") ComboBox1.AddItem ("NO") End Sub Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
If ActiveCell.Activate = E4 Then ComboBox1.Activate End If End Sub
I'm looking to make a simple button that would hide a given range of columns.
This is the simplest I could find:
VB: Sub button1() Columns("AD:AE").EntireColumn.Hidden = Not Columns("AD:AE").EntireColumn.Hidden End Sub
Although this works nicely, there was another way to do it (looks more ergonomic and doesn't take up spreadsheet space). Here's a screenshot of what I mean: ColumnHide.gif
in my work sheet I need to Hide & Unhide some text box By checking a checkbox it means if user mark the check box the text box will be appear & if uncheck it the text box will be hidden
