Autofilter When Workbook Opens

Jul 16, 2008

My workbooks contains 2 worksheets with data and autofilters on for each column in use.

When my workbook opens I am trying to reset the autofilters of each worksheet in the workbook and to filter the data according to one criteria in one column.

This is what I have that works to reset each worksheet but I haven't been able to figure out how to subsequently filter each worksheet.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For Each w In Worksheets
w.Unprotect
If w.FilterMode Then w.ShowAllData
w.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True _
, AllowFiltering:=True
Next w
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

The autofilter sits in A3 to N3 and I am trying to filter according to column M (i.e. 13th column)

Add-in Opens Workbook It Was Created In

Oct 27, 2006

I've created an add-in that runs a simple macro. The problem I have is that when I run the add-in it opens the workbook I originally created it from - is this what I should expect it to do? How do I stop this from happening?

Also, do I need to have the workbook from which I created the add in located in the same place on every machine I want to use the add in on? At the moment if I move the original workbook the add-in won't work.

Workbook Automatically Opens After Closing

Jan 6, 2010

I have a workbook on a share drive that is used by multiple people. In the event that someone leaves the workbook open after using it, I have a timer function that pops up a splash screen after 4 minutes of inactivity which states, "This workbook will close in 1 minute if there is no further activity". If there is no further activity in that minute, the workbook closes.

The code works fine...unless the workbook is manually closed in that minute between the splash screen and when the timer would have closed the workbook. If that happens, the workbook closes normally and then briefly reopens and closes a minute later when the timer would have closed the workbook. Is there any code to prevent this?

Date Formats Incorrect When VBA Opens Workbook

Apr 29, 2008

I'm new to VBA so my i'm having alot of problems figuring out simple stuff.

Below is my script and when i run it, the dates turns out incorrect.

I noticed this only happens to dates that are before 13th of each month.

Example,

1st May 2008 ( 01/05/2008)

will turn up as

5th Jan 2008 ( 05/01/2008)

However when i manually open the file Todays trades.csv
The date looks just fine.

Is there some problem with using VBA to call up the file?

Force Specified Sheet To Display When Workbook Opens

Jun 11, 2013

I need to set the "Sheet1" to be the sheet that always displays first, regardless of what sheet was active when last saved.

The reason is that I have a sheet with instructions on it as how to use the Workbook, including "You must Enable Macros" etc. When Macros are enabled, it's all good, as most people use a USERFORM which I have coded to set "Sheet1".Select and save their work upon closing using the USERFORM.

BUT when the advanced users modify other Sheets directly without using the USERFORM, and "SAVE" and then "Close" , the next time a user opens the Workbook (If they do not enable Macros) it opens to the sheet the advanced user Saved on. Thus killing my instructions page and putting the exact people I did not want messing around on certain sheets, on those sheets, fully bypassing the USERFORM created to avoid the problem.

I can force the workbook to switch to "Sheet1" and Save and Close, every time someone closes or EXITs, BUT I quickly realized when testing that any mistakes made are then permanent because you cant EXIT without Saving.

So. Is there a setting somewhere (Not Requiring Enabled Macros) to force a Workbook to ALWAYS open "Sheet1" first, regardless of what Sheet was last saved in the Workbook?

Worksheet Activate Not Happening When Workbook First Opens

May 18, 2009

I have a workbook where the sheets are all protected and I want to stop users scrolling up or across beyond the limits of the input areas.
I have used the following code (or variations of)...

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Me.ScrollArea = "A1:G32"
End Sub

This works fine except that when I first open the workbook, the first sheet displayed can still be scrolled. As soon as you move to another sheet and then back again, it is then OK.

It appears that the Worksheet_Activate code does not execute when the workbook is first opened.

How do I get round this?

Data Dump Query When Workbook Opens

Aug 26, 2006

I am trying to find a way to automatically do a query and dump the data into a sheet when a previously created workbook is open. I know how to get the data (use the Tools, Import External Data option to retrieve data from Access) but what I don't know is how to make it do it automatically when the workbook is open.

Workbook Automatically Opens When Opening/Closing Any Other

Mar 14, 2008

I have a problem, where every time I close or open any workbook, Excel prompts me to "Enable or Disable Macros" in one particular workbook, wether I have tried to open it or not. In the said workbook, I have a macro that automatically updates a pivot table upon selecting the worksheet where the pivot table resides.

The code for it is as follows:

Sub UpdateIt()
Dim iP As Integer
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
For iP = 1 To ActiveSheet.PivotTables.Count
ActiveSheet.PivotTables(iP).RefreshTable
Next
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Call UpdateIt
End Sub

There is something in the code that calls UpdateIt any time a workbook is opened, closed or selected.

Sort Column Using VBA When Workbook Opens - Runtime 91 Error

Jun 24, 2014

I'm trying to introduce some VBA code to an existing workbook that will automatically sort column A alphabetically on Sheet 2 (Summary) (excluding rows 1 & 2 as they contain headings) whenever the workbook is opened.

At the moment this code doesn't automatically run and when I run it manually I get a run-time error '91' the first time I try and when I run it for a second time (again manually) it works.

The code I've got at the moment is:

VB:
'The following code will run the sorting subroutine when the workbook is opened:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Call SortByWave
End Sub
'And this subroutine will enable the autofilter functionality, clear all existing filters and then filter the data on column A:
Sub SortByWave()

Workbook Open Events Fires Once. Subsequent Opens Causes Error

Oct 3, 2007

I have a program that uses the Document Open event to display a custom form. This program is being used on about 50 computers for the past 8 years with no problems. One user has a problem now. They can open the program once and the code fires. But when the user tries to open the same file a second time, the "Microsoft Excel has encountered a problem and needs to close" dialog box is displayed. The document that is recovered has no vba modules and no code in the Document open event. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Office Professional. Shut down all firewalls.

Macro Suddenly Running Slowly

Sep 16, 2009

So I have a macro which is running slowly, though I can't figure out why. I don't remember adding/subtracting from it. All code prior to this macro being called runs fine...So this part below runs fine:

Private Sub Step_3_Click()

Dim YR As String
YR = Range("C24")

Dim DT As String
DT = Range("C27")

Dim MNTH As String
MNTH = Range("D23")

For Each wb In Workbooks
If wb.Name = "Top100gen2start.xls" Then
MsgBox "You need to close the Top100gen2start.xls file before
proceeding.", , "Close Top100gen2start.xls file"
Exit Sub
End If
Next

If CheckBox1.Object = False And CheckBox2.Object = False And
CheckBox3.Object = False And CheckBox4.Object = False And
CheckBox5.Object = False Then
MsgBox "You didn't select a sector report to run!", , "Select a
sector report"
Exit Sub
End If

If CheckBox1.Object = True Then
Call FullBlown
If gameover = 1 Then
Exit Sub
End If
End If

Once I call that Fullblown macro (or any of macro similar to it in this process), the whole things slows WAY down (I mean as soon as it is called)...Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but here's the called macro:

Public Top100Check As Integer, gameover As Integer

Sub FullBlown()

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

' Dim x As Date

' x = Format(Date, "mm-dd-yy")

On Error GoTo Jump
' Workbooks("PERSONAL.XLS").Close
Jump:

Dim YR As String
YR = Range("C24")

Dim DT As String
DT = Range("C27")

Macro Code Executes Very Slowly: Filling Some Cells On Different Worksheets

Nov 9, 2006

I have the following code attached to a userform. It works perfectly (for what I need) although I know it may not be perfectly written. However it does seem to take for ever to execute considering it's just filling some cells on different worksheets. Have I missed something out or got it tied up doing something that takes a long time. If it's just a fact of life that it takes this time then I can live with it.

Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
Dim wsCB As Worksheet, wsLL As Worksheet, wsBond As Worksheet
Dim rngFound As Range
Set wsCB = Sheets("Current Bonds")
Set wsLL = Sheets("Landlords")
Set wsBond = Sheets("Bond")
TenancyStartTxt = Format(TenancyStartTxt, "dd-mmm-yy")
RnwlDteTx = Format(RnwlDteTx, "dd-mmm-yy")
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
10 MyBond = Application.InputBox("Bond number for renewal?", "Bond Number")
strFindMe = MyBond
With wsCB
Set rngData = .Range("c13:c490").......................

Prevent A User From Opening Another Workbook

Feb 12, 2009

How can I prevent a user from opening another workbook in an Excel session "from the outside"?

I'm fairly new to VB. I'm developing (in VB 2003) a simple but SECURE Excel environment which will allow a user to update a hidden Master_Records workbook. I need to keep the user's Excel session secure...for example, I've disabled all Excel Toolbars and Command Buttons, effectively preventing the user from doing anything except filling in some cell values and clicking on a few custom buttons in the worksheet. But how can I prevent the user from opening another workbook into the active session from his desktop and introducing some malicious code into the session via that route?

One respondent in another forum (the only one, in fact) suggested that I look into "instantiating workbook level events" so that I can detect when other workbooks are open. I'm not sure what that means, is there someone here who could give me some guidance into that solution?
