What I want to do is very similar to a Data Validation message, where a message pops up when you select a the cell. I want that message to be the value of another cell in the same worksheet.
I would also be open to a solution where you simply mouse over a cell to see a comment/message.
I have a workbook that can open a URL into IE when a project number is entered in an input box.
What I would like to happen is that if the project number entered does not have a URL against it and the value is #N/A, then the message box will display "Project does not exist". However if the number does exist, I want a different message box to be displayed which is a yes/no box.
The code below is what I have tried which works fine if the cell value is #N/A but when it is not it throws an Run-Time error 13: Type mismatch
Code:
Sub SearchPidsMessageBox()
Dim Answer As String
Dim MyNote As String

i have a routine which loops through a range looking for past dates and when it finds one display the result in a message box in my testbook i only use 25 rows but it gets annoying having to click ok for every find....is it possible to collect all results and display them in the message box at one time?
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim Mycell
Dim Rng
Set Rng = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("B1:B25")
For Each Mycell In Rng
If Mycell.Value < Date Then
MsgBox Mycell.Offset(0, -1).Value & " Is Overdue By " & Date - Mycell.Value & " Days, Take Action Now!", vbOKOnly, "Tasks Overdue"
End If
Next Mycell
End Sub
I want to display a comment/note that is always visible however:
*The text in the comment should change "only when" the user of my worksheet "clicks" on a specific cell in the worksheet;
*I do not want that a comment appears/disappears/ changes when the mouse moves over any of the cells
*I do want that the same comment/note is used to display different text when the user clicks on another cell in the worksheet
*I do want that the user can position this comment on his screen where he wants it to be.
I am using this code to display a message when a range is empty on workbook save. Case "A" gives an error when referring to a range, the second case works fine. How can I change it?
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)Select Case Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("B6").ValueCase "A" If Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("D104:D109").Value = "" Then MsgBox "Cells cannot be empty!" Exit SubCase "B", "D", "F" If Worksheets("Sheet2").Range("D112").Value = "" Then MsgBox "Cells cannot be empty!"Case ""End SelectEnd Sub
Im currently studying for an ICT A level and im in my first year doing AS. Im working the AQA board and i have a project that i have a target for an A! I need to create a system for a business and write a report on everything i did...wont go into detail. Anyway. i am having trouble with an IF FUNCTION!!! I have a cell (E35) that contains a percentage.
I want the IF function to display a message depending on what the percentage in cell E35 shows;
IF, 0>> Display "Bad"
40>> Display "OK"
70>> "Good"
90>> Display "Very Good"
E35>=100 >>>> Display "Excellent"
I have tried so many things and I was so sure i entered it correctly, but it keeps coming up with an error.
I wonder if the following is possible in the worksheet_open event. I want to be able to open my worksheet and see via a message box all the important features I need to look at.
Using column AG,
Take the cells that are conditionally formatted to red, take the corresponding cells in column A & B and output this
information in a message box.
I have a spreadsheet and in column D, I have look up formula which looks up value from another tab. What I want to do is if the look up finds #N/A or blank cell. There should be a message box appear warning that all the cells in column D might not be updated properly.

I have an index of 80,000 names from an index. Some names appear in multiple volumes and on multiple pages within a volume. While the name is the same, they are different people. The Roman numeral is the volume and the numeric is the page number.
Example of original data: Joe Shmoe V-225, 310 VIII-22, 86, 110
I have separated the data into separate columns. Now I have:
Col 1 Col 2 Col 3 Col 4 Col 5 Col 6
Joe Shmoe V-225 310 VIII-22 86 110
At this point, I want to combine the Roman numeral in Col 2 with Col 3 and 4 and combine the Roman numeral in Col 4 with Col 5 and 6.
There are way too many records for me to manually enter the Roman numeral where missing.
How can I change the font color or highlight cell A1, when I select cell A2. Cell A2 is still blank, no value entered yet. I also would like cell A1 to return to original font color or no hightlight when cell A2 is no longer selected (active), whether a value is entered or not in cell A2. Let me clearify, (A1 thru N1) and (A3 thru N3) have diferent dates and the font color is white, as is the cell too. Therefor you can not see the dates in (A1 thru N1) or (A3 thru N3).
However, when any cell (A2 thru N2) or (A4 thru N4) is selected (example A4), the cell above it (cell A3) changes font color or highlights, so the date can be seen in (A3). But when cell (A4) is no longer selected the above cell (A3) hides the date (changes back to white font on white cell). Data or a value is not necessarily entered into (A4) for (A3) to change. (A4) is only selected to show the date in (A3). But if data or value is entered into (A4), the date in (A3) will still be seen until (A4) is no longer selected/active.
I have 2 problems relating to LOOKUP.
Not sure if Excel can perform these calculations as they could get to complex.
Problem 1
Can it be possible to have excel look at data from one cell reference another cell then display the results from the cell next to it in another cell, sort of example:
Tab 1 (Never changes)
AB
Bob1
Jon2
Fred3
Tab 2 (Dynamic, changes each week)
AB
Jon
Fred
Bob
So it would work as follows.
Tab2 column B will take Tab2 column A’s data check Tab1 column A and display Tab1 column B’s result.
Problem 2
Weekly league rank table that shows position movements week by week
Example.
Week1
1Jon
2Bob
3Fred
Week2
1FredUp 2
2BobNot Moved
3JonDown 2
Can Excel calculate/show the actual movements of league positions?
My data I need to copy begins as always from cell A5 and keeps going till A16.
I need to copy this data but only from A5 to A15. I always delete the last cell.
The number of rows is not always the same. Sometimes my data runs till A26.
How can I copy this data except the last row?
Example:....
i m wanting Cell B1 to display true if any of the values in column C match otherwise I want to display false.
A 1
B 0
C 0
D 0
But I can't determine how to get this done.
in column A of a spreadsheet a date needs to be entered manually, however i cannot have it so it can be backdated or a weekend. I have seen a message box pop up if you try and enter a date prior to today saying , Please enter todays date , then gives you an option Retry Or Cancel. But im not familiar with this function.
Is it possible to have this if a date is enter and is either a weekend or a date less than today ?
I would like to select a cell in a range a1:h5 numbered 1-31 (days in a month)and return the selected cells value in another cell.
What formula would I put in the cell where I want the value of the selected cell?
Is it possible to format the message box display? I need to display currency format, how can this be done?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to sort the information that will be displayed in a message box just before it's displayed, is this possible.

When the user enters a date (A1), that date is cross-referenced with a database to determine 1 of 3 results, in which the results are displayed in A3 as follows - Date out of range. (value="DOR"), No records exist. (Value="NRE"), Records exist. (Value="RE").
Once the date is entered and the corresponding value determined, I would like to have a ppo-up message appear with options:
Date out of Range.
Message: "Date falls out of range of operating season. Please re-enter." ** I think I can use validation to take care of this. **
Message "Would you like to import data?"
Yes - open external application
No - default A1 to current date and await user input
Records Exist.
Message " x Diamond Records; y Field Records; z Court Records " where x y z are numeric values based on lookup from the referenced database
Message "Proceed to data"
Yes - takes used to next new worksheep
No - default A1 to current date and await user input
How / where do I code this to activate after the user enters a valid date?
I am looking for is VB code to firstly have a message box with an input box on (that bit i can do). The text and number put into the message box is then used to search the table for the information that relates to it.
The ideal would be for the code to find the data and then copy it either to the clipboard or to a section of the workbook.
The tables I am searching can be put into which ever format is easiest. Below is an example table;
A B C D E
1 A.1 Side Road Correctly Left
2 A.2 Hit in Rear Left
3 A.3 No known Police ref
4 A.4 Vandalism
code that would generate the 'Not Found' message
I have a date in HC4, which appears in column 112, so cannot understand why it finds nothing ?

If Not C1 Is Nothing Then
C1.Offset(1, 0).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues

I have been using the GetOpenFileName method and a message box to return the filepath of a file and saving the filepath in a variable called Filepath. This worked just fine.
What I want to be able to do is display the the file path at any time in a message box, but not sure how to do this. I tried displaying the message box in a form and was going to look for some way to call the form, but the form does not return the message.
My code for this is as follows:
Module 1
Sub getfilepath()
Dim filepath As String
filepath = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="All Files (*.*), *.*", Title:="Select a file")
UserForm1.Show
End Sub
Userform 1
Private Sub OkButton_Click()
Unload UserForm1
End Sub...........
I am just having a problem where at the end of my macro, the macro is looking for a value in a cell and there is no value at the end of the game for it to paste so I get an error. Instead of getting an error, I would like the macro to display, "You win!", if cell e1 is =1, "You lose!", if cell e1 is =2, and "tie game", if cell e1 is =0.

View 2 Replies View RelatedSheet1 is a list of names, then a few columns of numbers.
Sheet2 contains calculations based of the numbers in sheet1.
Each sheet from 2 on is names after the names in sheet1 column A...
A large cell at the top of each sheet contains the formula to display the sheet name:
=MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,255)
So what I want to do now is...
in cell, look for the cell in sheet1, and display the value in the cell offset by X so i can bring the numbers from sheet1 over.
In plain english the cell would say like...
"look in sheet1 for "Name" then display the cell next to it"
I know to look in the next sheet its "=Base!B2" if i wanted b2 on sheet base.
I know to use "=OFFSET(Base!B2, , 1, , )" too look at B2 and go right 1 column.
But the issue is i dont want Base!B2.. i want whatever cell in Base column A that has the text that A1 has.
If a cell is not blank, then increase that amount by a percentage identified in another cell and display the value only without any formalas in a new cell. To this end I wrote this IF statement:
=IF(I2>0,CP9=(CA9*I2/100)+CA9,CP9="")
Observation: I see a FALSE in CS9 where this IF statement exists, however, CP9 does not display the required value.
I need to display a set of cells based on the value of two drop down cells i have. As I am not very good at english and worse at explinations, I'll try via screen shots...
I have two dropdowns (C4 and C6) that will indicate what table to use (Second sheet / screenshot). I want that "table" to display in the yellow box on the first page. To complicate matters, some options do not have a CLA option - those starting with X. As there are 24 different outcomes and each is 3x9 if/then statements just dont seem to cut it.
P.S. I have excel 2010 and windows 7
I have Excel 2000, recently when I format a cell to display mm/dd/yyyy and enter mm/dd/yy, it is displaying dd/mm/yyyy. Or it starts out correctly and during a future opening of file it displays incorrectly.
