I regularly utilize .xlw files to open sets of workbooks all at once. Usually, they're made up of 10-15 workbooks, using the cascade arrangement.
Problem is, each time I re-open my .xlw file, the workbook that was supposed to be in the top is hidden. If I re-configure and re-save the .xlw file, the top workbook still disappears.
If I open the native file for the top workbook, it is not hidden when I open it.
I have a macro that opens XL workbooks runs a macro, closes the workbook and opens the next workbook until completed, this is all fine.
Now for some reason and it has me stumped it is creating a file called RESUME.XLW a workspace , my problem is how do i stop this from being created i have not programmed it nor want it, it seems to be some automated thing i have never seen before and it is driving me balmy.
I have a spreadsheet which users access through a shared workspace but often close excel without updating the shared workspace. Is there any code to update the shared workspace from vb?
View 5 Replies View RelatedHow do I stop a user hiding a workbook using VBA? I have tried:
Private Sub workbook_deactivate
If windows(myfilename).visible = False Then
windows(myfilename).visible = True
End If
End If
This works but when I try to close all files sometime I have to press the top cross twice. This may be because one workbook references the rest.
1. I'm looking for a better way to get a UserForm (frmParts) to show right from the start as soon as I open the workbook while hiding the application. I use the following when I initialize the application:
Code:
Application.Visible = False
frmParts.Show
2. Later on, I add some parts to my inventory, but if I don't make the application visible, it doesn't save the data. So, I have to make it visible and then hide it again. Is there a right way to accomplish the save without having to unhide/hide the application? This is the applicable code I used (ComboBoxes & TextBoxes involved):
Code:
'copy the data to the database
Application.Visible = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
With ws 'ws=Inventory

I am trying to write a macro that will do the following:
Copy workbook "X" as a new workbook, but name the new workbook from a cell entered in cell B2 of the newly copied workbook. The final process is then to hide workbook "X".
I need a code (and where to put it) to open my application excel with only the userform so, with the workbook hidden.
Application.Visible=False doesn't work because it close all excels and moreover I can see the workbook for 1 or 2 seconds before hiding.
I use all of column A, B, and C, but i only use D1 to H44 other than that. Is it possible to hide everything to the right of Column I and below D44:H44, but leave the scroll area for columns A B C able to scroll to the bottom?

I am building a real estate model. What I am trying to do is the following:
If I enter the number of tenants in a cell (let's say the number of tenants is 6 and the cell I enter this number in is cell J11), I would like 6 of 15 rows to be shown below (rows 46-60). Therefore, the 9 unused rows (rows 52-60) would be hidden from sight. Furthermore, if I entered the number 3 for the tenant count, excel would hide 12 rows (rows 49-60). I am sure that this is a VBA code.
I am useing a user Form
On the Form which I call my main menu, theres a help button, with this code
Private Sub cmdHelp_Click()
MsgBox ("Help file not ready yet, good luck on your own, Have a Nice Day!")
End Sub
For some reason when this is click, and after the user clicks ok on the msgbox, the frmmain, which this command is on, minimizes itself
I'm trying to hide a UserForm (using myFrm.hide) once the command button on the form is clicked. I'm getting the following error:
Run-time error '402'
Must close or hide topmost modal form first.
Apparently the form isn't the 1st in the z-order. How can I see the z-order of my forms?
Seems like this should be pretty cut-n-dry to me...I thought I could "hide" an Autoshape (AutoShape 19) using some formula [I.E. =IF(B12="","",SUM(C37:C45)) ] but I cannot get it to work...
Basically I dont want to see the shape if there is no data D49.
I am trying to use the following
[code] ....
and modifying it to:
If Sheets("TPM").Range("al13").Value = 2 Then ActiveSheet.Shapes("Check Box 391").Visible = True
The first one works OK, but when I try to add an if / then statement, it gives me an error message.
I want to hide Check boxes 391 through to 426, using a single macro.

View 9 Replies View RelatedA workbook with 7 sheets in it. The first sheet contains buttons with macros that when clicked will navigate you to different sheets in the workbook based on what button you click. Here's what I want to do. When the workbook is opened, I want it open to that first sheet with the buttons, but show no other tabs for the other sheets at the bottom. And then when that button is clicked on the first sheet to go to a different page, I want that page to be the only visible tab in the workbook with the rest still hidden. Is that doable? I already have the buttons and codes and everything for the navigation part down, I just need to have the other hidden when I'm on a different sheet.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI've created an Excel spreadsheet (Excel 7) to help me price sign printing jobs consistently. In my spreadsheet a few cells allow me to enter markups for materials & labour rates. These are used for calculating the retail price.
I would like to give my spreadsheet to some of my customers so they can calculate the retail price of a job themselves BUT, I would like to hide the contents of those few cells where I fix the markup. How can I achieve this?
I'm trying to hide all but one duplicate value in a list; I have a report that can give multiple results for each record, but to make it cleaner to read I want to hide the duplicate values, such as customer names etc. after they have first appeared. I'm aware this may not be a very clear explanation so have attached an example spreadsheet.
The left-hand list is similar to what I would start with and the right-hand list is what I am looking to achieve. Conditional formatting will format duplicates but will obviously all to all and can't use the remove duplicates function as it will take away the unique values alongside them in the row. Preferably I'm after a solution that works in both '03 and '07 but it's not a disaster if I can only do it in '07.
I was wondering what would be the best way to go about hiding either rows or columns based on whether a particular cell is empty or not. The reason being, I want a graph and table to only display data when present.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with hiding and unhiding columns. Is there a way wherein I can automatically hide the row(s) if the cell = "N/A" and will unhide if it's not equal to "NA". see the attachment Im using excel 2003 btw. You can see in Sheet2 to that it contains the table for the student grades. "N/A" means that they are not enrolled on that subject. While in sheet1, What I want to happen is that you will select a student name and below, it will automatically display the grades of the student on their enrolled subjects only. So, those fields with "N/A" will hide and when I update the value of N/A it will unhide.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI wanted to know if there is any function/macro/option available which can hide/show sheets based on the value selected in the particular cell.
Basically i will have a table of contents as the first sheet. Post that if 'Yes' is selected against a particular line item, the sheet for the same should appear. If 'no' is selected the sheet would remain hidden. The sheets would be linked via hyperlink to the particulars (name) for each line of the table of contents. If required i can also remove the hyperlinking of cell.
How to hide repeated values in a column, and only display them ONCE.
See attachment. The names are in column "C" and the grey bar is not using any formula, just hardcoded. I want to apply conditional formula or something like that, to keep the names as they are, in the grey bar, but supress the names in the subsequent rows, if they are repetitions.
