I have an excel file that has quite a few buttons with macros attached and combo boxes. On one computer it runs perfectly normally, however on another, when the file opens all the comboxes and buttons with macros attached have been stripped from the file.
View 8 RepliesI change those files to "VeryHidden". Then I protect the workbook's VBA code by going to Tools->VBAProject- Project Properties-> Protection tab and adding a password. This worked great as it allowed all the other sheets to function as intended, but didn't allow the users to access the sheets that were hidden.
However, we recently upgraded to Excel 2007, and the password protection is stripped whenever the file is saved with the extension .xlsx. I can save it as a "macro-enabled" file with the extension .xlsm, but all that needs to be done to remove the password is to save it with the .xlsx extension again. Is there something that can be done in Excel 2007 to protect VBA code, or am I doing something completely wrong?
how would i be able to loop through all controls on a worksheet and see what type of control they are? : D
View 9 Replies View RelatedIn my current project, I have set up a worksheet with 15 comboboxes (dropdown lists).
To trigger change events, I use :
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
....
End Sub
So, I have 15 such routines defined to cover all comboboxes. By doing so, my code becomes quite large
I am wondering if there is not a more efficient way to handle this.
I have problems wit setting some ActiveX controls properties. If I place ActiveX on worksheet manually, it is diferrent object, then If I place it by VBA code. I, am not able to open properities window for controls created by VBA. When I open properties window for ActiveX created manually, there is property fmbackstyle. If I am trying to set this property by VBA for controls created by VBA, result is error.

IE, 1 box asks for the part number 2nd asks you how many 3rd/4th boxes are "+", "-"
When + or - is pressed the part number will automatically add's/subtracts that part level. I had 10x abcde's I enter 2 in "How Many", then press "-" it will then adjust the level from 10 to 8
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?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have used Option Buttons and Combo Boxes on my worksheet. When I print my worksheet, the controls which contain values do not print properly. They only print a fraction of their actual size relative to the rest of the worksheet. The properties are set so that they are printable. What setting do I need to change for them to print properly.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen placing a control on a worksheet, the text in the label,option box etc controls is vertical and I can't find a way of changing the direction to left to right. It doesn't happen on all workbooks. I can put the control on a "normal" workbook and then copy it to the "abnormal" workbook but I would like to know why/how I can change the direction of the text.
Under Tools/Options/International the text direction states left to right
I created a macro to create command buttons on sheet 1 of my worksheet. The created buttons using oleobject and class type: forms.commandbutton1, creates an object with no properties on the sheet (i.e. if you right click on it excel thinks it's an object and not a control.) Is there a way to create it as a control?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm currently building an Excel database. This database has a few comboboxes and checkboxes that are tied to each other. If I select the combobox option of "Years", the "Quarters" combobox must be greyed out. In addition depending on which option is chosen, the relevant check boxes must be enabeled or disabled. I've written some code which runs fine, until I try and activate another macro button or if I add and rename a sheet(which is not linked to anything). What should I do? Here is a sample of my code. I have a feeling it's really obviouse but I cant see it..
Private Sub ComboBox2_Change()
If Sheets("InputSheet").ComboBox2 = "Years" Then
Sheets("InputSheet").ComboBox3.Value = ""
Sheets("InputSheet").ComboBox3.Enabled = False

I need to make several exact duplicates of an existing worksheet which includes several form controls. Basic Copy/ Paste the worksheet works well but row heights are different and hidden rows are unhidden. Is there a way to make an EXACT duplicate ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet with lots of things going on... the end user needs access to the Name field, DOB field, all the scroll and form control option buttons in the 9-question sheet, and the macro-enabled reset button at the bottom. Formulas are sprinkled throughout the worksheet, in columns T through AC... option button links go to AA and AB.
I would like to protect the entire sheet so none of the fields, except where indicated above, could be selected or edited... but when I protect the sheet, I get errors when trying to use you form controls, and the formulas do not respond. And finally, when protected, I get a debug error on the reset macro.
I have a workbook with two worksheets, "Main" and "Control".
Both of them are with hidden tabs (unchecked "show sheet tabs").
On worksheet "Main" I have command button which opens worksheet "Control".
The assigned makro is: Sheets("Control").Select
The problem is: when I open "Control" and close after that the workbook, the next time when I open the workbook "Control" pops-up instead of "Main" even though I do not save it.
1. I need macro on "Main" which will allow me to open "Control".
2. Regardless I "Save" or "Don't Save" "Control" when selected and workbook is closed, to open the workbook always displaying worksheet "Main".
I use Excel 2007 (at home) & 2010 (at office).
Actually i've downloaded Tracking report of my SPO and this report is on 4-5 csv files (1 file per week). I have to gather data from these 4 files into one Worksheet. I have to do this with command button on my worksheet; with Open file dialogue box (i want to locate the csv files).
CSV files are something like that (I need only first 4 columns):
ABCDE1Name MSISDN Date Location MapLink 2M. Younus Safi "923***550577" "2011-10-07 20:36:18" "ACB Tower Badragah Chakwal. Badraga" "http://asdf.com" 3M.

I have a Workbook that already has a macro in it that will generate multiple sheets based on certain criteria.
For each of these newly generated sheets (numbered 1-6 in the attached example), I need to be able save each of them to a PDF file based on a unique name contained in a certain cell (in this case, each named is referenced in cell Q1 of each sheet). As such, I should end up with 6 pdfs based on the attached sample files.
The PDFs would ideally need to be landscaped and should be just 1 page per sheet.
In my attached sample workbook, you'll notice that I have a "PracticePrint" macro that doesn't quite get the job done. One other criteria involves not printing any sheet with the characters "1010" in it (my PracticePrint macro is setup to do that, but it fails to do much else).
I have a macro which successully saves a worksheet as new file to another file path....(below)...but I can't figure out how to close this new file and return to the original file...
Dim myPath As String, fName As String
myPath = Sheets("Date").Range("C8").Text
fName = Sheets("Date").Range("C9").Text
Sheets("Sage CSV File").Copy
With ActiveWorkbook
.SaveAs Filename:=myPath & fName
End With'
I want to create a macro that will select all the worksheets (names and quantity will vary) and saves the file as the current file's name but in PDF. Since I only know how to record a macro it specifies the worksheet names but I need it for various workbooks. The name will vary plus the number of tabs can go anywhere from 3 to 40.

I have about 50 CSV files in a directory named C:POSTAL. Each file has about 4000 records with three fields, Name, Address, Phonenumber. I would like to find some way to combine them into one large CSV file named ALLRECS.CSV so that other parts of the program can open that file and search it by Phonenumber, so I can display the Name and address on the screen. Obviously it is too large for Excel, at the moment. In old DOS you were able to use
copy *.CSV ALL.CSV"
to combine all the CSV files into one. Every now and then I want to delete the old ALLRECS.CSV file and replace it with a new one, as we update the phone numbers in the individual 50 files. For example I would like to use a button so the user can simply update whenever they wish by clicking on it, deleting the old and adding the new.
I have a workbook which utilizes 2 worksheets to fill a third. I would like a macro to be able to save JUST that worksheet, and not the other two. I thought there was a checkbox allowing you to "save selected" only, but I'm either dreaming, or it was in a previous version of Excel (I know use Excel 2000).
