How can I get VBA to recognise if a certain report is already open?
Basically, what I want to do is if the report is open then just copy the sheet across else if the report is not open the open the rpeort and copy the sheet across.
I'm only struggling with the first part, I can get it copying over fine but its the "if the report is already open" part I can't get my head around...
I download excel report from Business object reporting tool and the file will be very huge something like 25MB and it takes nearly 40 Min to open the report and the data will be merged in the report......can any one suggest what can be done to open the report quickly or can we open the report by using macro.... can we improve the performance of opening the 25 MB report thru macro...

I have a macro that takes the date from different excel sheets, consolidates the data and renders the pivot table and chart accordingly. It was working fine when the date range defined for the pivot table was static. Now I have made it dynamic since the data range changes each month depending on the number of days it has got. When I run the macro, it runs succesfully, generates the report and save & close the report, but after that I am getting this error. Errorneous

The countif formula (=Countif(D10:D34,"PB") is in cell D39 and the result in D39 populates a cell in another worksheet. The formula in Col D also returns =PB results. I have placed another Countif formula in cell D41 (result to also populate a cell in another worksheet) to count all =PB's using (=Countif(D10:D34,"=PB"). The second countif doesn't work correctly. It counts all PB's and =PB's.
I have a report that has been running in it's current state for several months with no issue. However, today it has decided that it doesn't understand the word 'selection'.
eg: selection.copy gives compile error.
Now... obviously NOT USING selection is preferred. However, let's put that aside for now because there are LOTS of these in this report and it's never had an issue until today.
Is there some setting that could have gotten changed or something?
It's happening on multiple computers and we're running Excel 2003 (standard) with SP3.
I'm trying to make a spreadsheet to organise my bank statements. I have raw data from online banking and I want to sum all the transactions that have "SAINSBURYS" in, for instance. I am using SUMIF to add the totals only if "SAINSBURYS" on the totals page matches "SAINSBURYS" on the raw data page. The problem I'm having is that the raw data cell doesnt just display "SAINSBURYS" but "SAINSBURYS LONGWATER BCG 12345678" for example, and so i cant find a way for SUMIF to recognise that it contains "SAINSBURYS".
View 5 Replies View RelatedIn my attachment, I had try to create a PO system that will show a dialouge box and capture input data of the dialogue box into the worksheet.
However, I am not able to make the macro recognise any manual deletion from the worksheet (e.g. delete any row in between the full data). Hence, when I input new data, the row will start from the last register counting of rows (i.e. Range("g1") in my attachment.) and it will leave a blank row after the last row of data and so on...
I will also like to know if I need to fix the "date" input to select from a "calendar" pop-up and input the date format into (e.g. year into column a, month into column b and day into column c) 3 separate columns. Is it possible?
In the formula below the AND function cannot recognise the named range "KolomFFundering". I need the named range because when I insert a row the range must also change. Is there any way to rewrite this formula without losing it's function? The range of "KolomFFundering" is F13:F23.

E.g. IF(A1=" "," "," ")
(This is part of a bigger statement which returns a date if and when there is a date in the cell, if there isn't it comes up with an answer even though it should be blank)
whenever I select a series of dates for a line graph x axis Excel does not recognise the values as dates for the purposes of the scale tab in graph options. I suspect it may be because the dates are the result of formula in the relevant cells.

I have two worksheets in my report cards:
1) Data - the students are listed in Column A, math scores in Column B, reading scores in Column C and science scores in Column D. The grades of 300 students are entered in this sheet.

Math
Reading
Science

2) Report Card template - This is the report card that needs to be generated for each student. It's pulling the student name and grades from the Data worksheet.

How do I create worksheets (report cards) for additional students? I have 300 students in the school. I need the next worksheet to reference Data!$A3. I know how to cut and paste the report card template and then edit =Data!A2 to be =Data!A3 to create a report card for Sally. How do I create the 300 report cards I need?
I've been teaching for 13 years. I can create a report card for each student in my class and edit each worksheet individually for each student. Now I've been asked to do this for the whole school and I don't know how to create the other 299 sheets I need.
How do you create a macro to copy the information from my weekly reports to a monthly report and be able to update automatically. If you had 4 worksheets (for each week of the month) and 1 mastersheet for the whole month in a workbook. All titles are the same and If you needed to copy all the data that is in the columns, say, A through I, starting with row 4 to however many rows are in a given week. The reports can be made up of numicerial values, text and dates. Let me know if more information is needed or an example worksheet.

how to make a MsgBox open anytime a cell in Column A was double-clicked--and the content of the MsgBox was from the cell in the same row in column Z. I've now realized the double-clicking isn't an ideal solution, as it's easy to click in another cell and mess up all the formulas.

(2) Code that opens the MsgBox when a cell in Column A is clicked just once (or similarly less fool-proof than double-clicking or right-clicking).

The Quickbooks file opens fine. The Excel workbook never appears to open but
I do get the full file pathname to my excel workbook returned which I then
parse off to get just the workbook name.
Why would it behave this way? I open both these files manually all the time.
Also, I'm trying to use a filter as follows:
myname = Application.GetOpenFilename("*.QBW")
I get a compile error saying that I'm calling the function wrong.
