I have a spreadsheet where I can change the colour of a cell by clicking the mouse, I also have text in many of the cells.
What I need to do is protect (lock) the text so that no one can change the text in any of the cells, but I still want to be able to change the colour of the cells by clicking the mouse in that cell.
I have a workbook that uses the values that a user had entered into 3 cells to calculate multiple other charts/diagrams on multiple sheets within the workbook. Each sheet would show what the user had entered in the 3 cells to allow them to see what is being used to calculate each table. Is it possible to link these cells so that the user can change the 3 values without having to go back to where he originally entered the 3 values?
For example, a user has entered in 3 values in Sheet 1. A formula in Sheet 2 displays what is entered by the user and uses these calls in Sheet 2 for calculations. When the user wants to change the three values, he would have to navigate to Sheet 1 and enter in the new values to have the workbook recalculate all the tables. Is there a way to link the three cells from Sheet 1 and Sheet 2 so when the user is on Sheet 2, he has the opportunity to change the values on the current Sheet without having to navigate to Sheet 1 to do so?
I have a simple bike log that lists out each day of the month in rows with a summary row between months. Like this...
January Summary
Jan 1
Jan 2
Jan 3
....
Jan 31
February Summary
Feb 1
Feb 2
Feb 3
....
Feb 28
and so on. Each column has a data field where I enter in miles and distance and so on. I frequently add rows if I do two rides in a day so two rows may start with "January 23rd". I would like to have a chart that shows me my weekly ride summary. But I have some issues:
1. With the field summary I don't know the best way to do a chart that doesn't include the summary (the summary data would throw the chart way off)
2. If I have multiple rides in a day I don't know how to make the week include those days
3. I may want the week to start on Monday and not Sunday. Is it possible to have the user choose and have the chart change automatically?

I am far from advanced in excel, but I have been tasked with creating a macro which includes filtering.
1) I have a workbook called Workbook1
2) I need to copy Sheet 3 from Workbook1 cells A1-J5000 into a new workbook called Master.
3) Column D is labelled Status and the two statuses are Enabled and Disabled.
4) I need to copy anything labelled Enabled to a new worksheet in the workbook already created called Enabled and then the same for Disabled. I then need to put it into date order which is column F labelled Date.
I have been trying to work on this all morning, but have found that Excel doesn't like Macros with filters and I don't know the first thing about VBA
I receive data for time windows on jobs. my issue is 10-11 time frames appear before 8-9 time frames when I move data into a Pivot Table. This happens because the data I receive does have "08" signifying 8 so the "1" in 10 causes the 10-11 to appear before the 8-9. Is there a formula I could use to make this change? Currently if I want to view items in sequential order I have to go into the file and add a 0 before any jobs that start at 8 or 9am

Is there a way to combine cells in excel and chage the color of part of it?
Example: On my sheet I have multiple cells I need to combine:
Say A1 reads 23.65
Say A2 reads 43.65
Now on A3 I want it to read "Estimated budget 23.65 vs 43.65"
I can get this to work but here is the problem, I want the 23.65 to always be red and bolded and the 43.65 to always be blue and bolded.
I noticed that I have several (@200) comments that when visible displays Cell X Commented by (my work user number) in the lower left corner of the excel window. I'm not sure how to change this so its the company name instead of my work number. I'd be using a loop to go through each comment but need help with the line that would change this part.

I have a spreadsheet with several freeforms. I would like them to change backgroundcolour, if the content in a cell is equal to another cell.
Basically I would like my shape "Freeform1" to change backgroundcolour to RGB (0, 180, 0) if Sheet1.Range ("A1") = Sheet2.Range("D3").
If it's not the same content in both cells, I would like the freeform to remain unchanged, that's RGB (79, 129, 189).
This should happend automaticly, so I don't have to click the shape to make it happen.
The thread title is the entire email message I got from a customer (thru the help desk). I have sent back asking her the following:
Is this happening in all excel documents you try or only some? Are you getting any sort of error message? Can you send me an Excel document you are having trouble with and tell me the exact actions you take?
While I am waiting for her answers, I thought I would ask here if anybody knew:What would cause this to happen?What sort of things I should look for?What other questions I could ask her?At the moment I do not know if she was in an Excel workbook that had vba code behind it or not. So my questions are for both what could be in vba code and what she could have done (without knowing) to cause this phenomenon
I wanted to stop users from using cut and paste as well as drag and drop so I found something in Ozgrid to do that. (http://www.ozgrid.com/VBA/disable-cut-copy.htm)
Problem now is I am trying to run a macro that will copy and paste certain values, but because of the code I have added in the above link, whenever I click on a cell and copy it, when I click any other cell, the copy area gets cleared which of course disallows me from pasting it.

Dim oCtrl As Office.CommandBarControl
With Application
.CopyObjectsWithCells = True
.CellDragAndDrop = True
.CutCopyMode = True 'Clear clipboard

For Each oCtrl In Application. CommandBars.FindControls(ID:=21)
oCtrl.Enabled = True

What I mean is, I have a formula that sums a specific cell across several tabs.
=sum('120:125'!C15)
Lets say that this formula resides in a summary sheet. And that the summary sheet is definable by a control in another sheet (user friendly).
So in the user friendly sheet, a user toggles to 'Assets'. In the Summary sheet, Assets appears in cell a1, there is a lookup table somewhere, and a lookup value of 120 appears in cell a2.
I want the formula above to adjust for cell a2.
If a2 = 115, then the formula should adjust to
=sum('115:125'!C15)
Of course after I understand how to do this, I can do the same with the end of the sheet range and the cell ref.

I am using a spreadsheet for a consignment sales program. I took over the spreadsheet already in use but want to improve on it.
Here are the important cells:
=(SUM(E2:M2)-SUM(N2:Q2))*1.35 This gives us the tentative order for 2013. First sum is amount sent, second is amount returned. The 1.35 is our built in sales expansion.
=ROUND(T2,0) Rounds the above result
Now I need to have a minimum of 5, so anything for tentative 1-5 would be a 5, and there are some negatives under tentative, need those to read 0. Can I get both of these to happen in the round column of step 2 above?
I own 3 restaurants and I use Excel to track my sales statics. I have to enter certain pieces of data on a daily basis and it can become slightly cumbersome when dealing with the sort of washed out look of Excel spreadsheets. I wanted to write a Windows application that would handle the process for me but my knowledge of programming languages is too limited and I don't really have the time to learn. What I'd like is to have a single page on my workbooks with which I can enter the data in on a field type view, and have it go to the appropriate cell on the "Raw" data sheets in the same workbook. For example:
Let's assume this is the Raw data sheet. I currently enter the data that I need here, and Excel does the rest for me. This gets hard to look at everyday when dealing with hundreds of numbers.
Net Sales
Taxes
Prior Year Sales
Percent Increase/Decrease
[Code].....
Entering the data here would automatically fill in the data on the Raw sheet, and would know which cells to put the data into based on the date, which would of course be gotten from the =Today() formula.
