Worksheet_Change Event Wont Fire When Target Changed By ListBox Selection
Dec 5, 2008
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Application.Intersect(Target, Me.Range("R1C1")) Is Nothing Then
'do something
End If
End Sub
Now, that Private Sub works fine if you change the value of R1C1 manually or from another macro.
But if R1C1 is the cell linked to a list box, nothing will happen if you change its value by selecting different items in the list box.
I am trying to look through a multiple selection of cells (in Target range) and compare to see if these are Integer. I am failing to be able to cylce through the selected cells and check their value. I am sure it is VB 101 issue... but I am lost at cracking it.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim TotalDays As Integer
TotalDays = Range("C65536").End(xlUp).Row + 1
The code points to the next blank cell so the user can input a value. Each time the user enters a value I want to re-run the code so that the colour of the cell changes.
However I also want to perform various calculations on the sheet. However this means the sheet is being changed and so continually repeats my code.
I am trying to determine how to get the code below to fire whenever cell J10 is populated and do nothing when cell J10 is not populated but I can't quite get it. (Cell J10 is manually changed and is not changed based off of a formula)
when I use worksheet_change for something so simple to do, it prevents me from deleting cells.
When I try to delete the cell values from A2 (5) and A3 (6), they won't delete unless I delete the value on A1 (True).
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Application.EnableEvents = False If Range("A1").Value = "True" Then Range("A2").Value = 5 Range("A3").Value = 6 Else End If Application.EnableEvents = True Exit Sub End Sub
I have a spreadhseet where columns I and J (range from I6 to J300) serve as input cells, off to the right, 23 columns over in AF and AG respectively I have a hidden array formula (Index, match) calculating values based on input in either column I or J and several factors embedded in reference table in the same sheet. That works fine. I want cells in columns I and J to be interdependent, in other words, input in column I drives calculations in a hidden formula and I want the value of that calculaton to display in column J (in a adjacent cell input in I6 results in display in J6), but if I input value in J then this value will drive calculation in a hidden formula and display in I (let's say I is centimeters and J is inches). I have a code that works (I set it up as a try just for few rows) but only one code section at a time, not together. If I choose column I (#9) to go first in code, values update in J, but not the other way around, if I choose column J (#10) to go first in code, values update in I, but not the other way around. What am I doing wrong, I tried Target.address case, I tried Intersect ... is nothing then etc. They all work one at a time but not together. Here is the code as it stands now
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?
Is there a way to make a macro fire when you close the VB editor. For example, I would like one of my pre- recorded macros to start as soon as I close the VB editor.
I have two workbooks that have the following Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim myColor As Integer With Target If Intersect(.Cells, Range("v:v")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub If IsEmpty(.Cells) Then r.Offset(, 1).Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone: Exit Sub If Not IsDate(.Cells) Then r.Offset(, 1).Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone: Exit Sub Select Case Month(.Value) Case 1: myColor = 3 Case 2: myColor = 17 Case 3: myColor = 19 Case 4: myColor = 22 Case 5: myColor = 26 Case 6: myColor = 33 Case 7: myColor = 36 Case 8: myColor = 38 Case 9: myColor = 40 Case 10: myColor = 42 Case 11: myColor = 44 Case 12: myColor = 7
I have this code in 1 sheet in one of the books (and all other sheets work fine), and the same code in all sheets in the other book. Both books work the way it's supposed to.
My question, Is it necessary to have the Worksheet_Change event in all the sheets (all sheets act on the code the same way) or is it okay for just one sheet?
Could I encounter a problem if in only one sheet?
I just don't see why I would have to add more size with the code in all sheets if it is not necessary.
Bit of an odd one, but I'm sure it's probably happened before to others. I've just been sent a worksheet to redesign (an audit template) one which I'll be making use of data validation lists (Yes, No, N/A) a fair bit.
What I want to happen is that when the user selects from a list, I'll fire a Worksheet_Change event, which will then run some background calculations to set up the next questions, etc. Problem is, the event isn't firing at all. I'm using the following to test the event...
I wrote a simple script to show/hide certain rows based on the value of a certain cell on my worksheet (cell value chosen by drop down). When I left work last night, everything worked fine. When I returned this morning, the change event no longer appears to be firing. I'm quite certain no one else accessed the file to change the coding, so my only guesses are 1)perhaps some sort of system update was applied in the middle of the night and it messed with something or 2) aliens have blocked our technology in advance of their invasion.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) On Error Resume Next
If Target.Address = "F1" Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
Select Case Target Case "150" Rows("13").EntireRow.Hidden = False Rows("14:19").EntireRow.Hidden = True Case "330" Rows("14").EntireRow.Hidden = False Rows("13").EntireRow.Hidden = True Rows("15:19").EntireRow.Hidden = True Case "340" Rows("15:19").EntireRow.Hidden = False Rows("13:14").EntireRow.Hidden = True Case Else Rows("13:19").EntireRow.Hidden = True End Select
I'm trying to find a way to bypass a worksheet_change event. Right now, my code validates if a change has been done to a specific cell ("D13"). It works perfectly, too perfectly actually.
Here is the code I got :
First line of Module 1 :
Public bDeviation As Boolean
On Sheet1 :
Public Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
Is it possible to use a named range as part of the Target.Address in a Worksheet_Change event? For example, if I've named cell A1 to be XYZ, can I use something like the following VBA script:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Address = Range("XYZ") Then ..... End If End Sub
The above script obviously doesn't work. The only thing I can get to work is:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then ..... End If End Sub
I would like to be able to use a named range so that I don't have to remember to update my VBA when I insert rows or columns in my worksheet.
I'm using the following code. Basically it formats some cells in row based on the value in the first column of the row.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim icolor As Integer Dim RowNr As Integer
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A1:A65536")) Is Nothing Then For Each cell In Target If Target.Text = "" Then icolor = 0 ElseIf Target.Text = "Row Loaded" Then icolor = 4 ElseIf Left(Target.Text, 14) = "Row not loaded" Then
This works fine, except when I delete a row by clicking on the row number to highlight the row, and then right click to select delete.
The event fires for each cell in the rows, and takes ages to run.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to prevent this from happening? I tried substituting
I have a user who wanted a spreadsheet to highlight cells containing formulas whenever the formula was changed. (They want the ability to make changes, but want those changes highlighted. They do not want to protect cells with formulas.) I tried to accomplish this with Conditional Formatting but could not figure out a way to do it, so I turned to VBA. I wrote the following routine that is called on the Worksheet_change event:
Sub CheckFormulas(Target As Range, FormulaRange As String) Dim CurCell As Range For Each CurCell In Range(FormulaRange) If Target.Address = CurCell.Address Then Target.Interior.ColorIndex = 3 End If Next CurCell End Sub...................
In the worksheet_change event I am calling a method for performing some calculations. The method is called only if certain cells are affected. I want to know the cell values before the event gets triggered.
For eg: Lets say Cell A1: 10 Cell A2: 20 I select both A1 & A2 and click on delete. Then I want to obtain the values 10 & 20 in the method called. Is this possible? Currently If I do Cell.value it returns blank.
I had copied the file with a new name and changed the target column to 14 (Column N) and it did not work. I went back to the original file with column 10 and it does not work either.
I'm trying to run a macro anytime cells G2, J2, M2, O2, P2, S2, V2, Y2, AB2, AE2, AH2, AK2, AN2, AQ2 change.
Right now I have the below code which is working well, but I only have it set for G2. Do you know what the notation is to make the target range multiple cells?
Also, I use the xlDown command in my sorting code, but later on it reverts back to "A5:AT60"... is there any way I can remove these specific cell references? I want to avoid having to re-write the macro every time my selection shrinks or expands.
Code: Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Not Intersect(Target, Range("G2")) Is Nothing Then Rows("5:5").Select
I need to hide/unhide a couple of rows based on the result of a formula in the Target Range. Basically, Cell D2 contains the results of a sum (a+ B), if this is greater than 10,000, unhide the next row.
Below is an example from the ozgrid forum illustrating the worksheet change event. Not sure of the meaning of 'Do nothing if more than one cell is changed" on the 2nd row of the code. Does it means that if a value is entered in other cells, the code will not fire?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) 'Do nothing if more than one cell is changed or content deleted If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Or IsEmpty(Target) Then Exit Sub If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then 'Ensure target is a number before multiplying by 2 If IsNumeric(Target) Then 'Stop any possible runtime errors and halting code On Error Resume Next 'Turn off ALL events so the Target * 2 does not _ put the code into a loop. Application.EnableEvents = False Target = Target * 2 'Turn events back on Application.EnableEvents = True 'Allow run time errors again On Error Goto 0 End If End If End Sub
I'm trying to create a sheet where clicking in a range brings up, in my users words, "a box I can type loads of comments in". They want some kind of flag in this cell showing if comments are posted or not. So far so ok, got the userform to pop up using the selection change event below and dump the actual comments somewhere the user won't look. A rather inelegant IF statement to see if there's anything in the dump cell gives them their flag.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Excel.Range) If Intersect(Target, Range("B2:B300")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub UserForm1.TextBox1.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 10).Value UserForm1.show End Sub
So what's the problem? When I select entire rows, the userform pops up. Is this unavoidable?
I have added this bit of code to change the apperance of entered time from 0835 to 08:35
UserInput = Target.Value If UserInput > 1 Then NewInput = Left(UserInput, Len(UserInput) - 2) & ":" & Right(UserInput, 2) Application.EnableEvents = False Target = NewInput Application.EnableEvents = True End If
And it works like a charm. Except that if the content in one of the cells later is deleted a "Run time error 13" is the result. Debug leeds to the line "If Userinput >1 Then"
I run a web query from [url] to import the latest currency rates into Excel. I refresh the data every minute. Every time Cell B19 changes I want to run the following
If Cells(19, 2).Value > 1.27 Then MsgBox "buy" End If
I tried putting that code in the Worksheet_Change event but it only works if the user physically changes the cell, not if it's changed by a web query. So how can I run code that triggers when a cell is changed by a web query?
List 1 (TV Brand) Sony LG Samsung Depended List 2 (Models) Sony LG Samsung EX420 55EB9600 PL43E450A1FXZP EX430 77EC9800 PL43E490B4FXZP EX550 55EA8800 PL43E400U1FXZP EX520 KN55S9C UN32EH5300FXZP EX645 55EA9800 PL64E8000GFXZP
I'm using two Listboxes (Form Control) with multiple selection options namely Listbox 1 (Brand) & Listbox 2 (Models). I want listbox 2 input range to be depended on selection made on Listbox 1 (Brand). For example, if user selects Sony then box2 should show only Sony's models and if user selects Sony & LG, box2 should show models for both Sony & LG.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) With Target.Cells(1, 1) If Not Intersect(.Cells, Range("b3:b6")) Is Nothing Then Range("b7") = "Not Found" For i = 3 To 6: txt = txt & Cells(i, "b").Value & "_": Next For Each r In Range("m3", Cells(3, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft)) For i = 0 To 3: txt2 = txt2 & r.Offset(i).Value & "_": Next If txt = txt2 Then Range("b7").Value = r.Offset(4).Value Exit For End If txt2 = "" Next ElseIf Not Intersect(.Cells, Range("b16:b19")) Is Nothing Then Range("b20") = "Not Found".....................
I'm working with this code right now. The problem is the macro will only work if i type the numbers manually. if the values are retrieved from a combobox, the code above down not work as it cannot read the values.
I used the code below for Conditional Formatting. This works fine but the VBA-code crashes when I delete more than one selected cell. Is there a simple modification possible to prevent this from happening?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim icolor As Integer If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A1:C250")) Is Nothing Then Select Case Target Case 1 icolor = 6 Case 2 icolor = 12 Case 3 icolor = 7 Case 4 icolor = 53 Case 5 icolor = 15 Case 6 icolor = 42 Case Else 'Whatever End Select
Target.Interior.ColorIndex = icolor End If End Sub
I have a data set with rows of data, with a header row along the top. I want to sort my rows of data by column when the cell above the appropriate column is pressed. I know this seems cumbersome - but it fits in with the sheet. The sheet is protected, and we only want the user to be able to sort in this fashion. My problem is, with my code, I get an error when you select a range of two of the header cells. The case selection on the target.column gets confused. How can I check to see if it's just one cell? Is there a property of a range that reflects how many rows or columns it contains? I tried the following (marked with the ' )just from picking out of the pop-up list of properties of the Target range in SelectionChange, but obviously it doesn't work. My original code is the un-'-ed code.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) ' If Target.Rows = 1 And Target.Columns = 1 Then If Target.Row = SortRow Then Select Case Target.Column Case PriorityColumn SortData PriorityColumn Case JobColumn SortData JobColumn Case NotesColumn SortData NotesColumn Case SupervisorColumn SortData SupervisorColumn Case ShutdownColumn SortData ShutdownColumn............................
I am working on a project where user has to select an item from a listbox, however there is a condition that if user select an item, other items of listbox should be disabled so that he/she can not select any other item.
