I want to create a log of everyone who opens a particular workbook. I'm using Excel 2003. I found this macro, and created a worksheet called "Log", but I've opened the workbook several times and nothing appears on the Log sheet.

I'm now trying to do the same thing with a command button. Here's what I have so far without success.
Private Sub CommandButton4_Click()
With Range("'Estimate_Database.xls'!ELECTRICAL")
Worksheets(.Parent.Name).Activate
.Select
End With
Electrical.Hide
DataSheets.Hide
End Sub
The file path being C/Documents/Estimate_Database
I have a script that exports an excel worksheet into an access db table and thsi is working fine. However i want to define a specific worksheet where the data is being exported from within the code but im having trouble doing, its using just a range at present.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a macro below that gives me a popup box that lets me type in the new sheet i want to access. etc(sheet1.xls) It give me 2 boxes one i must type the old sheet i currently access etc(sheet0.xls) and the next is the new sheet i will now be accesssing.
Is there a way to change this so i only get one box that will let me type in the new sheet i want to access?
I have an excel worksheet that I need to populate with a few thousand data points from MS Access. Currently I do this through vba code somewhat similar to this:
rst2.Open myQueryString, cnn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic, adCmdTableDirect
Do Until rst2.EOF
wsht1.Cells(1+counter, 1) = rst2!val
rst2.MoveNext
counter = counter +1
Loop
rst2.Close
Now this method works, but it is pretty slow to load. I remember reading as a general excel optimization technique you should avoid using long loops accessing cells on an individual basis.
Is there a better way for me to dump large clumps of Access data into Excel, instead of populating it cell by cell?
I am creating a spreadsheet for work - I have a column that is all the formulas projected sales minus actual sales.
I need to lock this column so that no one BUT MYSELF can change the codes. In other words "idiot proof" the worksheet. there are only 18 sections that I want anyone else to be able to type in.
is there a way to do this without adding users? half the ppl have personal emails and half have company emails.
I currently have a userform, and on commandbutton_click, it performs
the following code that adds a column in a access table to a combobox(cbList)
Private Sub CmdName_Click()
Dim rstName As ADODB.Recordset
Dim strClientDatabase As String, strConnectionString As String
strClientDatabase = ActiveWorkbook.Path & "9001.mdb"......
After its listed on the combo box, upon commandbutton_click on another button, i wish to extract a particular record, based on the selection made on the combobox(cbList). This is where im having problems caused i have no idea how to do so. I just want it to extract the particular record row, based on cbList, and insert it into range A100:D100 in a particular worksheet. It is then updated and added to a listbox which ive already done the coding for, and with another button click it would add the details in the listbox into the appropriate location i wish to.. The only place im stuck is with extracting the data from access into a A100:D100 range in any worksheet. what ive come up with, but is incomplete is :
Private Sub CmdImport_Click()
Dim adoRS As ADODB.Recordset
Dim strSQL As String
Dim strClientDatabase As String, strConnectionString As String
strClientDatabase = ActiveWorkbook.Path & "9001mdb"
.........
I'm trying to access/read data from a hidden WorkSheet in Excel 2003 using:
Application.Worksheets("Hidden Sheet").Activate
With ActiveSheet
**** Data ****
End With
The accessed **** Data **** refers to another ('unhidden') WorkSheet. How can I read the data without making the WorkSheet visible to the User?
I am trying to implement code that can handle a dynamic number of objects, specifically check boxes.
I know of eval( ) in perl that allows one to dynamically create command lines. For instance, the following code would change all of the Checkbox values to 1. The syntax may not be correct but the idea is solid.
Do While i < num_checkboxes
eval("Checkbox" .i. ".Value=1)
Loop
Does this funtion also exist in excel?
I want to write down the code that will populate values in "Sheet1" from the Access table. The column headers shows "Envelope types", "Envelope Size" fields from the Access table and each cell should store sum(volume) for each month in the table.
As I can't upload access table in the attachment so I have exported data into Workbook named "tblmain" as attached. But in actual tblmain is Access table. consider it an access table.
wrting code that will fetch data from access table and store in all the cells of the table in "Sheet1" of Elevate workbook.
I have a workbook with just one worksheet. It's just a list of data imported from Access and saved as a worksheet. When I try to enter a formula ie '=4+4' it goes in as text and will not calculate. I have tried various formatting to no avail. I added a second worksheet to see what happens and this works fine. (XP home, Excel 2003).

The code doesn't do anything on my excel workbook which currently has like 20 workbooks, and it grows daily by like 4 or 5 worksheets.
I'd like to grant access to selective columns on a shared worksheet.
For example:
Columns A to D should be edited by only me
Columns E to G can be edited by anyone
Column H should only be edited by someone else
The worksheet has to be shared and has been shared by me. I know how to protect & hide locked cells etc but the problem I'm running into is this...
After locking & password protecting say columns A to D and then sharing the worksheet, I am unable to edit my own columns (columns A to D) without first entering the password.
However in order to enter the password I need to unprotect the sheet. And in order to unprotect the sheet, I need to unshare it!
Is there any way around this or perhaps a completely different way of approaching it?
I am Generating Excel file with Macro using my asp.net (c#) application.
I am able to generate Excel file in development environment, but in Production it gives following error:
"Programmatic access to Visual Basic Project is not trusted Line: Microsoft Office Excel"
I did googling a bit and found that I have to open Excel file physically make few security related changes in macro as below.
1. Open the Office application in question. On the Tools menu, click Macro, and then click Security to open the Macro Security dialog box.
2. On the Trusted Sources tab, click to select the Trust access to Visual Basic Project check box to turn on access.
3. Click OK to apply the setting. You may need to restart the application for the code to run properly if you automate from a Component Object Model (COM) add-in or template.
Can i do above changes at runtime (using some code)?

I have a workbook that contains 50 worksheets named 1-50. I need to add more worksheets. all the formulas in the worksheets always refers to the previous worksheet.
How can i make a copy of the worksheet named 50, name it 51 and have all the formulas in worksheet 51 refer back to worksheet 50?
I need a front worksheet with either buttons or tick boxes that will list different options for a machine
Once a tick or push button is activated a hidden block of text related to that specific tick box needs to be selected and placed onto a final print out sheet (allocation)
when futher boxes have been ticked I would like all the information blocks to build up on the final print out sheet.
I'm trying to build a query which matches two tables which say has a number like A#### , I want the query to give me the A number's which do not belong in the second table but which do in the first table. i believe i need an SQL query to do this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe size of the table I'm importing will change, so i would like for the code to not matter on size. Also its, gonna be large too. The sheet will always be the same and the column headers will match for excel and access.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to compare data on a spreadsheet to data that resides in SQL database. I have never done this before so before I start I wanted to ask a general question, what is the cleanest, simplest, way to go about this. I read that ADO is a good way to access SQL. I understand that ADO is one of the main components of MS universal data access specifications so it sounds like the right approach (and that ADO is replacing DAO).
In terms of application, all I want to do for now is pull data from SQL and write it to a worksheet in the Excel workbook. Other macro's will then operate on this data. Later I will want to write data back to SQL but I want to focus on the "get" part first. Are the statements SELECT; INSERT; UPDATE; DELETE examples of ADO coding?
Conceptually, the SQL team provide nightly tables of data; ADO retrieves some of that data by selecting it; The selected data is written to a worksheet within the workbook. Is this a good approach?
I have a very unuserfriendly report that looks like this
State - ype - County/City - Invoice # - Ref # - Amount
UT - Tax Billed - Salt Lake - 073714 - 238025 - $10.82
UT - Taxable Sales - Utah - 073714 - 238025 - $983.75
UT - Tax Billed - Slt Lk Cnty 073714 - 238025 - 4.92
UT- taxable Sales Slt Lk Cnty 073714 - 238025 - 983.75
UT - Tax billed - Utah - 073714 - 238025 - 46.73
For sales tax reporting we need to know the state, city, county district
amounts. This would be simple if we could just sort by county/city, however
we cannot because the state tax piece only only shows the word "UTAH" it does
not give a city or county name. So we must sort by invoice #. This would be
ok if we only had a few invoices in each city such as Salt Lake but we have
have 40 or 50 invoice numbers in salt lake.
I need to find a way to keep all of the tax pieces that belong together, and
subtotal by city/county. I thought if I had a formula that could change the
state name "UTAH" to reflect the city for that invoice. This is the case for
all states. Each state is 10,000 or more lines. I need to somehow grouping
the information I need. I used the pivot table approach. However, since I
must sort by invoice I still have 10,000 lines. I want to sort by invoice to
get all the pieces then sort by county city. Any ideas of how I can do this?
something in Access perhaps? a formual in excel perhaps?
i have an access database and is using excel to get the required data from the access database. I am basing on department to filter out the required data into excel. Below is the VBA code i use
deptClause = Worksheets("Records").range("C1").Value
If Not deptClause = "All" Or deptClause = "" Then
requestClause = " WHERE Department='" & deptClause & "'"
End If
Queryline = "Select * from FailureQuery" & requestClause
the problem is i got one selection "All" in worksheet "Records" in cell "C1" and i cannot get this function to display all the data from the access. however when i choose a particular department it will show fine.
There are many examples and aspects to compare these 2 products but I just want to point one little difference which is quite crucial and interesting.
Generally if you use small amount of data - 1 Worksheet / 5000 rows / 20 columns you can use Excel without bothering about the execution time, queries and work fast and convenient with it.
The point on Excel is that in 1 Column/Row you can differently Format the data(cells). For example - format as Number or Hour the cells in Column B depending on the data in other columns. That saves you from making 2 Columns - one for Numbers and another one for Hours. This helps you to save 1 of the columns when the data structure in other column is the same.
In Access (and generally all SQL DBs) this is not possible.
I am trying to convert An Access macro/function programs to Excel and I am having trouble processing the following in Excel:
Set rsbuildinforce = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(InfTable)
(InfTable) is defined as an Access linked table name. The values of columns in rsbuildinforce drive the logic of the macro/function
The object of the program is to read in data from excel, do some manipulations, reformatting, etc... and output .csv files.
I have the following code set up and every works except for PaperSize and Margins. Is there a standard VBA code reference available somewhere that addresses Access to Excel operations? Thanks

I have an Excel spreadsheet that I have developed into an over the top flight calculator/scheduling tool. I am using Excel because developing this prduct into a stand-alone program would be absolutely murder to get approved for use on my network.
Since Excel and Access has already been approved, I began coding this project there.
Now that my calculator functions are nearly complete, I am beginning to develop a database of airfields and other misc. flight data that I and others on my network can see and manipulate. To make my calculator funtion at 100% effectiveness, I will need to use VBA to open the Access DB and pull out specific data. I will also need it to open and display some Access pop-up forms that I have just developed. Does anyone know what code I would use for excel to display and retrieve Access' information?
I was wondering if there was any code that would 'lookup' a value in a MS Access database in the same way that a Vlookup formula looks up values in tables in Excel.
Even better, if there was a fuction already written to do this.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am trying help protect a project from all my colleagues that have a version of password breaker that is actually an add-in. I have already managed to disable or grey-out all of the other commandbar options that I don't want them to have access to during their use of the model but can't figure out how to disallow them from accessing the "Add-ins" option from the "Tools" menu. I can, of course, disable the entire tools menu but don't want to do that yet.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI would really like to be able to have a function in a workbook that can run methods (for example Show or Hide) on a UserForm inside an add-in like this:
Public Sub Test_Addin()
frmTest.Show False
End Sub
where frmTest is a UserForm inside the addin. After the add-in has been added as a reference, I am able to access all of its functions/subs in this way. When I try to access a form inside the add-in from outside the add-in, I simply get an object not defined error. Looking more closely, if I type in "eRFTEAddIn." (which is the name of the add-in) and look at the possible options, the forms do not show up...although the modules and sheets do.
