I have created a chart with four data ranges. I have a check box for the four ranges. If a check box is TRUE the data is shown in the chart. When I check one of the check boxes, I want the CreateChart macro to run, but this is not happening with the code below?
View 4 RepliesI have a code where column K is not responding to a value being deleted out of column J. I've highlighted the portion of the code dealing with this. Deletion should trigger the worksheet_change event to clear out column K as it's supposed to. how to get deletion to take effect?
View 4 Replies View RelatedThis is part of a macro in a worksheet_change event. When a cell in column J gets deleted by a user, the corresponding cell in column K should also clear. But it's not responding to the delete.
It DOES clear when the other 2 criteria are met (.cells(1,10) = 0 and .cells(i,5) <> "Annuity"). The worksheet_change event should pick up on the cell deletion, but it's not. And column J is already a trigger for the macro to run, so I'm not sure what's going on. Either the trigger is still wrong, the isempty(.cells(i,10)) is not correct syntax, or this event just doesn't respond to cell deletion.
I have a Word document that I'd like to print first, when I click Print on a specific worksheet (not on Print of other worksheets in the workbook, just the one). The worksheet contains customer information and is essentially a cover page for the Word document. the Word document already prints in reverse order, as does the worksheet, so I just need the Word doc to print prior to the worksheet/cover, to give me the total print package in the correct order. I've tried using the following code in the Sheet object for the worksheet in question;
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforePrintEvent()
Dim appWd As Word.Application
Set appWd = CreateObject("Word.Application")
appWd.Visible = True 'Change to False when code is good
'Open Doc
appWd.Documents.Open Filename:="S:BryanQuoting ToolsP'Binder Leading Pages.doc"
'Print Doc
appWd.ActiveDocument.PrintPreview 'Change to PrintOut when code is good
'Close Doc
Set appWd = Nothing
End Sub
I am working on a macro that runs when a combobox is clicked. The combobox is imbedded directly in the worksheet, not in a form.
Basically, the user clicks the down arrow on the combobox, selects one of the available choices, and the choice selected is written to the spreadsheet - each time the selection is made, it is written to a successive row in the spreadsheet - keeping track of every selection made.
The macro works, mostly. But problem is that if the user repeats a selection in the combobox (makes a choice, and then in the next cycle makes the same choice) the macro doesn't run - nothing happens.
Here is the code:
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
i = Cells(2, 4) ' value in cell D2
Cells(i, 6) = Cells(4, 9) ' selected value from cobobox stored in cell I4
' This value copied to column F - successive rows
i = i + 1 ' counter to increment row for next value
Cells(2, 4) = i ' Update cell D2 with new i value
End Sub
Is there a way to write a Worksheet_SelectionChange (ByVal Target As Range) event in module after creating a sheet in VBA? I constantly delete a sheet, then repopulate it with a new one that is empty, but I need to add some code that happens if they should change a particular cell. It worked when I ran it on a worksheet without refreshing, but as soon as I cleared and repopulated the sheet, it was gone. Is there a way to preserve this?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIn cell A1, I have the month number (eg, 1, 2, 3,). The month number reflects current month and will automatically change with every month. For example, right now it’s 6, next month it will automatically change to 7. Each two columns in Range A10:X20 represents the data from January to December. I want to use a worksheet event to change the background of the current month two columns in the range to yellow color and the two columns in the range will be visible when I activate this sheet.

I need to to use VBA to copy a worksheet (which i've managed to do!), but I need the new worksheet to have a Worksheet_Change event. Now when I copy the worksheet, the event doesn't copy over (obviously as its a cut and paste jobby). Any ideas on what code I need to add in the Worksheet_Change event just after the new worksheet is automatically created?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have seen many examples posted here that are close to what I need, but I am not experienced at writing code, so I am not sure how to make the changes to this code that apply to what I need. So I will try to explain what I am looking for & hopefully not be too long winded:
I have an excel workbook that has several worksheets within it - 10 of the worksheets are identical as far as the formulas that are in each of the cells, however, they are all VLOOKUP cells that refer to another excel workbook (used as a "database")which lists all of our projects - there is a cell in each of the 10 sheets that can be changed that will allow that particular worksheet to access the information in the "database worksheet" for the particular project name that is entered in this cell.
There is currently an event worksheet code for each of these worksheets which allows for a picture to be displayed "floating" above cell (L13) based on the project name that is showing in this cell- however it is based on all of the project pictures "living" in each worksheet (the picture that is called up by the project name is displayed while the rest are hidden - as per the formula)- the code is shown below:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
Dim oPic As Picture
Me.Pictures.Visible = False
With Range("L13")
For Each oPic In Me.Pictures
If oPic.Name = .Text Then
oPic.Visible = True
oPic.Top = .Top
oPic.Left = .Left
Exit For
End If
Next oPic
End With
End Sub
However - this option works fine when there are 5 or 10 pictures/projects - but we are looking to grow our project database. So, I was hoping to be able to store the pictures in another location (such as another worksheet or in a file on the server - I would also appreciate input if anyone has an opinion on which would work better?) and have some type of worksheet event code that can be written in to each worksheet that would access the picture in this "central" location and have them appear in cell (L13) of each worksheet based on the project name displayed.
There is no such event in excel. Using a timer to constantly monitor any change of the ScrollRow/ScrollColumn of the activewindow is feasible but it is not worth it because of the strain that such a running timer would put on the application.
While playing around with some Controls via the "More Controls" icon on the ToolBox Toolbar, I came accross this ActiveX control named: InkPicture which has an interesting event called InkPicture_Painted and which basically fires every time it receives a repaint message.
I thought , maybe if i place one on the worksheet , the Control paint event would fire when scrolling the worksheet. Guess what: It worked
I embeeded one into the worksheet and reduced its width to a minimum so that it's almost invisible. I streched its height over 1000 rows so it covers a reasonable down/scrolling region.
Ok. Now, before I get too excited about this, there is a problem: Does this InkPicture Control come with all or most Office standard installations like the OWC controls? if so then great. if not, i should just forget about this whole thing. (i am running Office XP XL 2003)
Notice that there is also an annoying prompt upon opening a workbook containing an embeeded ActiveX control. Fortunatly, this can be avoided by adding a reference to the Control library ( MS Tablet PC Type Lib) Programatically , adding the Control at run time and hooking its events in a Class module.
here is a a workbook demo that shows an implementation of this custom Worksheet Scroll Event (it captures the event to prevent the user from scrolling down beyond the visible range ) : http://www.savefile.com/files/1158486
I would appreciate any feedback on this as i would like to know if it works on different machines/XL versions.
trying to get a worksheet change event to work. Basically the code below calls the time_start procedure when cell J16 downwards is selected.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Row > 15 And Target.Column = 10 Then
Call time_start
Else
End If
End Sub
However, I am lost from here on....Let me try and explain what it is I am trying to do. This seems so simple if you know how. Each time that the word "Completed" is entered in to a cell from J16 onwards, the cell two columns to the right on the same row is selected and the current date is entered.
If the word "Completed" is deleted, I want the date on that row to be deleted.
I would also like the choices "Completed" and a blank cell to be given in a validation list via a dropdown if possible to avoid occurances of "Complete" etc and mis-spellings but I understand that a bug may stop me from using this functionality. I am running Excel 2002 on a Windows XP Professional OS.
i need to add a DoubleClick event to about 40 workbooks.
each has 6 sheets and the code will be added to two of them.
i can cycle thru the folders/subfolders and open the correct files.
but how do i put the code into the specific sheets using a program?
Is it possible to copy a "Worksheet_change event" macro to a new worksheet by macro? Like when I insert a new worksheet, a certain macro, for example "run macro on data entry", to be already written in its worksheet_change event.

I wrote a worksheet activate event (for wrksht1). It reads a list of customer inputs found on wrksht1 then parses these inputs into 'like' lists and pastes the results into a wrksht called ADIM. ADMIN is kept well hidden so our customer cannot mess with it. These parsed lists are then used as validation data with the drop down menus applied to cells found on wrksht2. So to recap, inputs on wrksht1 appear as drop down values for cells found on wrksht2. Here's the problem. The worksheet activate event is triggered whenever wrksht1 is activated and since the code changing the focus away from this wrksht and then back to it, it appears to enter an endless loop. At least I think that is what is happening. Is there a way to programmatically deactivate the event so that when focus returns to wrksht1 the event does not trigger and cause an endless loop? and then reactivate so the event triggers then next time the user changes focus.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet with a table of values in range E5 to T158.
A macro populates the table by looking up values on other sheets in the book. If the macro finds a value in the lookup for Row 7 of any column (ie E7,F7...T7) it populates the rest of the column with that value (E7 value gets pasted to E8:E158) THEN it protects the cells it pasted (E8:E158).
If the macro does NOT find a value for row 7, it simply skips it, leaving it blank, and continues to row 8 until it reaches row 158 of each column E to T.
I want to give the user flexibility with these values. So if the user either deletes E7 or changes the value of the contents in E7, I want to unprotect the cells of rows 8 to 158 for that column.

I am using Excel 2007, and I have a macro (that is working) that I would like to run whenever there has been a new selection in a dropdown list on my worksheet. I have done this many times before in other workbooks, and I have always used:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
End Sub
To my knowledge this should trigger the macro when the dropdown selection changes. However, this time it is not working. The macro runs fine manually, but it does not run when the dropdown selection changes.
