View 5 RepliesI have a suite of subroutines and functions stored in an .xla file, which other users have access to. It's installed on the local machine via macro which installs a user defined menu to access them from. Howerver, when an XL chart worksheet is active, this menu doesn't appear and there are a couple of functions where it would be useful to have access to when viewing such a chart. I've noticed user defined toolbar icons are available in this view, so would like to use these to access the relevant routines. I know you can insert them in code (macro recorder) but is it possible to assign macros to them from the same code? Alternatively, is it possible to show my user defined menu in chart sheets as well as normal worksheets?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to put the standard Excel buttons (as in the ribbon in 2007 or the toolbars in 2003) actually on the spreadsheet. I would like, for example, to put the " pivot table refresh button" on my spreadsheet somewhere in the middle, separate from the program. Can I extract or import these Excel program's buttons somehow to insert elsewhere?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook that creates three temporary menu buttons when I open it. These work fine until I try and open more then 1 workbook at a time. This creates duplicate menu buttons (3 times the number of workbooks that I open).
I call up the procedure when each workbook is opened using this code in the "ThisWorkbook" code area: ....
is there a way to cause my custom menu items to grey out like the built-in ones, depending on the current selection or when the status of the active worksheet/workbook changes (e.g. when the book is protected to disallow certain actions)?
Obviously I can trap any problems once the associated VBA is invoked, but it'd be more professional if I could just prevent that from happening in the first place.
I have just made my first menu using VBA code. I would like to include icons on the buttons

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have buttons (macros) on top of my worksheets. The sheet might contain more than 1000 rows.
Now, what I want is that the buttons should remain constant on top (floating) horizontally and vertically even when the sheet is scrolled down or right etc.
An example would be Windows | Freeze Panes. But I need an alternative.

I tend to like to have 20-30 worksheets in one file, and its a pain to slide back and forth between the sets of tabs instead of just having one large visible menu with ALL 20-30 TABS.
I am creating scorecards for our company and ratings are inputted using radio buttons (form control). I have a "clear" macro that clears all fields and radio button values (none is ticket). This macro is called throughout different sheets, as different roles in the company have different KPIs and should be on different sheets. I need a code that detects all radio buttons within a certain sheet and clear their values. I cannot put specific radio button names, as I have a lot.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a macro that creates new worksheets with buttons on them that have macros attached. I've been able to produce one worksheet with a button and macro, but when the function that copies the code is looped it crashes out of Excel.
I realise that the usual method of doing this would be by templates, but this code will be run on other people's computers so the template wouldn’t exist in the location that i had specified (I think with my limited experience with VBA - Please correct me if I'm wrong). I've also tried to copy the page with the button on, but this takes too long (even with screenupdating = false) as there are many sheets to be created.
This is a stripped down version of the code that I have created for the purpose of this forum. To recap, the function that creates a new page, with button, with macro attached works. It's when it's looped that it crashes out. I've stepped through the program, and it reaches the second message box, then it gives up on life ..........
I am trying to use a For Next loop to loop through several option buttons on a worksheet in order to set the value of each to false. I cannot seem to get the code right.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been copying my spreadsheets and all the active controls seem to
work fine except the option buttons. Everytime I click on a button
from my old sheet, the selected option disappears from my new sheet.
Does anyone know why this might be the case?
I tried changing the names of the option buttons and then the names in
the codes but that didn't work and the only thing that seemed to was
when I drew new option buttons and reprogrammed everything.
Is there an easier way around this than having to draw new option
buttons each time?
Is it possible to use a macro to create a new worksheet with a button on it, that has a macro attached to it, that i can send out to people? I've looked at the Template example, but i'm not sure this will work when emailed as i'm unsure whether the template will be sent to them.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to either hide or disable the worksheet menu bar on ONE SHEET ONLY, so that a right-click customize doesn't even work on that sheet. I want the user to be able to do nothing but what my customized toolbar allows on that sheet.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am working on a workbook that has a custom worksheet menu bar item created every time the file opens. If I try to edit the path of these macros and save the file, when i reopen the file, it is back to the original paths. I can't find any VB code, hidden worksheets, hidden cells,etc to find the source of this item being created. I have even deleted all VB modules and worksheets except a blank sheet and it still creates the item. Somewhere this menu bar item is being created and I have no idea where. It acts the same on 4 different machines and acts the same on Excel 97, 2000, 2003 and 2007.

View 13 Replies View RelatedI have some command buttons on a worksheet that I would like to disable, preferably make not visible, until a specific person logs in. I already have code to display worksheets, or hide them, depending on who is logged in. I would like to just add this code to the end of the login procedure, to make these buttons only visible when that person is logged in.

I have a table with 150 or so Job Titles down the first column. Across the top row, I have 25 or so courses listed. There are Xs in the table indicating which courses are required for each job title.
This worksheet is intended to be used by individuals who will look up their job title to see which courses they must take. My goal is to simplify this process. I would like to create a worksheet in this workbook which has a drop down list of job titles. When the title is selected the data will transfer to a table on this new worksheet.
I've attached the spreadsheet I have and it's pretty self explanatory.
I have a worksheet with two dropdown menus. The first contains months from January to December, the second contains years from 2011 to 2025. Upon opening the worksheet, I would like the entries selected to match to the month and year of the current system date. I know this is relatively easy to implement but, unfortunately, the macro recorder is of no support here. How to refer to dropdown menus in an Excel worksheet and how to select a specific entry from the dropdown menu?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using Excel 2007 on Windows Vista Business 32 bit. I have several workbooks. Each one contains 33 worksheets. 31 of the worksheets are for each day of the month, the other two are for yearly totals and revision history. Recently, a menu bar has appeared at the bottom of my worksheet. At the left is an icon that states that no macros are being recorded, click here to start recording. The center of the bar is blank, but placing the mouse over the bar brings up a customization menu.
At the right side of the bar are three icons dealing with page layout. As I scroll down the worksheet entering data for the day, the cursor goes below the bar and the screen does not move up as it used to do. Also, by using the arrows keys to scroll down, I do not see the bar containing the worksheet names. Luckily, I have a macro that allows me to save the current days worksheet and move to the next one, otherwise I would not be able to do that. When I open a previous month, the bar is there also, so it must be a flag that I can't find or don't know about. Is there a way to get things back to normal?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI maintain an excel application for a local theatre group using alot of vba actioned by buttons on worksheets. I regularly email the application back and forth between the treasurer and myself and I have noticed that the process of doing this often seems to result in the buttons losing their reference to the code I've assigned to them.
why this happens (is it a bug?) and how to make the linkage more robust? Can I link the buttons and code using vba so that I could establish all the links when the workbook is open?
I am at it again and maybe I am asking to do something that is not possible. I am trying to build a program that will allow the user some flexibilty down the road if I am no longer here to support my code. I have a workbook that contains several sheets. The sheets are labled by equipment name. The Sheets themselves contain specific data with regards to the equipment. What I want to do is as follows. Populate a user form with command buttons based off of the worksheet names. The reason for this would be if 2 years from now we add a new piece of equipment all the user will have to do is add a sheet in the workbook and the user form would reflect the new sheet with a new button. Like wise if I delete a sheet in the workbook the user form would refelect that change as well.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to get a sheet filled in the order of the command buttons selected. It works like:
User clicks command button "A" in Sheet 1.
Macro runs that selects correct info in Sheet 2.
Info gets pasted in Sheet 3.
Repeat and Sheet 3 columns fill to the right with each command button clicked.
My issue is that I'm not sure what command to add in the macro to make it paste in the next available empty column. Right now all I can get it to do is paste over the info already there.
On a worksheet, I have several commandbuttons. For many of the buttons the name in the "name box" is different than the name in the "(name)" field under Properties.
Researching this, I found this on msdn2.microsoft.com:
An ActiveX control on a sheet has two names: the name of the shape that contains the control, which you can see in the Name box when you view the sheet, and the code name for the control, which you can see in the cell to the right of (Name) in the Properties window. When you first add a control to a sheet, the shape name and code name match. However, if you change either the shape name or code name, the other isn't automatically changed to match.
So, in my case, one button has:
In the name box: "CommandButton5"
In the (name) properties field: "RunProcess"
The real problem arises when I'm using code to loop through the objects on the worksheet, and build an array of the object names. I'm trying to match the name of the buttons to their click events. In the code, "btn.name" returns the name found in the "name box". The one that I want is the name in the "(name)" field under properties because this is the one that matches the click event.
How can I determine, in code, what is entered in the "(name)" field for an object?
I am getting the following error when i am clicking a Button on sheet1 which is generating duplicate of sheet1.I am trying to delete the button when duplicate is created..Error is:" run-time error '1004' Unable to get the buttons property of the worksheet class" at this line in code"ActiveSheet.Buttons("CmdHistory").Delete"
