I have a series of hyperlinks that take me to named ranges. The named ranges are on different worksheets. Once there, there is no way to get back to the worksheet that hyperlinked me over.
Is there a macro that I can attach to a button that will take me back to the last worksheet? Does Excel record a history? I will hyperlinked from multiple worksheets so it has to link back to the last last worksheet opened prior to hyperlinking.
Basically, what I'm dealing with is an inventory system. When a cell value reaches below a certain quantity, we have a cell light up with the word "YES" (under the "re-order" column). What I'd like to do is have a macro that checks to see if that cell is populated with "YES" and if it is, to run another macro (which I already have written) that sends out an email notifying us of the need to re-order.
How it would work: The person pulling out the inventory would fill out this form and click "Submit"
submitbutton.jpg
I would then have a "call" code tied to the "Submit" button that when clicked, would run the macro to check cell population and send out the email. The email code is already written and works flawlessly on it's own. I just cant seem to figure out how to write a macro that checks for cell value and then runs it (or not) based on that.
i have an report in which i need to delete the entire row if the column contains values more than 250K, but the chanllenge here is; if any of the cells in the column contains a formula then the macro should not delete the row.....

I'm trying to use code to write the numbers 1 to 100 in 10 rows of 10

So far i have the following which works:
Every month I download a report from a state agency that I need to reformat, create charts from and send reminder emails based on some of the data. The report is downloaded as an EXCEL workbook containing a single worksheet. The worksheet is preformatted as a printed report. I have no control of this formatting and I can not get the data as a .csv file. The report contains 3 sections. See detailed report description below.
What I want to do:
1.Is copy the 3rd section of the report to a new worksheet.
2.Sort the new worksheet by name, and date.
3.Filter some names based on resource type.
4.Create a new file, which will be attached to an email to my boss for follow-up.
Originally I used the built-in EXCEL macro recording function and this worked for a couple of months. Then the number of rows in the 2nd section varied and my generated worksheet failed to sort correctly, and I lost the column headings so my filter no longer worked. The results were not something I could forward. I do not know how to modify the macro to search for the literals which end section 2 or start section 3 so I can copy the correct data to the new worksheet. I am not a VBA programmer, just an old-fart trying to do some administrative volunteer support for an important program, and really do not want to become one.
Detail Report Description:
Section 1: Headings –contain fixed headings in merged & centered cells.
Row 1 – Report heading 1 in merged cells A1–I1
Row 2 – Report heading 2 in merged cells A2-I2
Row 3 – Report heading 3 in merged cells A3–I3
Row 4 – Blank row............
I am trying to write an if statement in my macro. It is not returning what I want. Can anyone tell me where I have gone wrong.

I am now trying to hide rows when the data in a column matches that of a cell with a data validation list. Ideally i would like only the rows with matching data to show. When the cell is changed then the visible rows change and when the the entry "total" is selected all the rows are shown. There are several small tables of data on a page so I can't use auto filter. The data areas will also change in size as new entries are added. So the last row in the data tables will increase over time. I will copy and apply the macro to each separate table of data.
As an example cell c19 contains "lwsf"
The data table is in the range c24:q47. the column with matching data is column D so all rows of entries with "lwsf" in column D should be visible and the rest hidden. When c19 is changed to "TF" then the rows visible become those with TF in column D and the rest hidden.
Just wanted to know if I could have a range or ranges which are split. The current range i have is N5:AV6. I need to miss out every 6th cell so am looking to do a number of ranges like this - N5:R6, T5:X6, Z5:AD6 etc etc. If this can be done could you show me how I would need to lay it out?

As part of a research project i need to extract as much data as possible from a webpage. The problem is to access each table i have to follow lots of links which I can't get to work automatically.
Its from a greyhound-data.com. So an example would be I want to extract all the racing stats for every dog that raced in swindon between 1st jan 2010-1st feb 2010. When i put it in the search engine I get 512 races in a table. I have to follow the link on name of race for each race.. Then I have to follow the link for each dog in the racers box, 6 for each race. Then when i'm on the dogs page theres a link saying on the top of the page saying a nember of races eg. 67races (number will vary for each dog). If I press that I get a list of all the racing stats for that dog. Its that table i need. But i also need the dogs name as a constant column. I need the table for each of the 6 dogs for each race out of the 512.. So in total 3072 tables.. It a lot of data and I have no idea how to get it?!
My biggest problem is I don't know how to say follow the various links. And I don't know how to loop multiple times - once for each of the races in the original list and then for the 6 dogs.
I have 6 columns. The 5th and 6th columns are the most important. The 5th contains a figure and the 6th contains a type.
Bascially I am trying to do a basic chart showing the following 2 things. A. Do a percentage chart of column 6 (service) but not of percentage of hoem many lines the product is in. Not based on percentage of how many times Apples are shown compared to other products. I need it to add up everything, then do a percentage of total amounts of oranges and total of for Apples from the figures on column 5. Also, if possible, the pie chart will even show teh actual total figure per product in each (or next to) each pie chart slice.
know the easiest way to do this (step by step) in Excel 2010 and then I can perhaps write a macro for the future?
I have attached a screencap of an example source table that I am trying to write a macro to manipulate each day. Starting conditions are that I have data in column A and B. Column A would be reference numbers that may be on one line, or more likely, on multiple lines repeating with varying counts. Column B is the weight associated with each line. I would need a macro that could loop through column A, determine if the ref number has changed, and then calculate/populate column C. Column C is the % of the total weight for the unique reference number. I have illustrated this in the table using column D. This is taking me incredible manual effort to complete right now and I do know VBA, I just don't know how to loop a variable range in this case.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI need in XL for a macro to run, open my word file, copy the entire thing and then paste it back in XL.
So leaving it general, Word.doc and Excel.xlsx
It's all because my company's POS system will only export to Word but everything we do is in XL.
I have a layout something like the following:
A1
A2
A3
[Code]....
Where each (i.e., A1) represents a location. I have tried to use a coordinate system but this will not work for the back-to-back locations. (Assuming each location is 2 feet wide, For example A1 to C1 is 4 feet apart, not 2 feet (as Euclidean or rectilinear would calculate it as).
Would there be a way to incorporate an if statement for those locations that are back-to-back? As a rectilinear distance calculation would work as long as the locations are not part of the same "block".
Ultimately I am looking to have a matrix which contains all the distances between each location:
A1
A2
A3
B1

I have a macro in one file which uses an input box where the user types in a subcontractor code to retrieve address and contact details from another file.
If the user inputs the incorrect subcontractor code, an error message box pops up. Currently the user then has to select a button in the original file to restart the macro at the input box stage.
What I want to happen is when ok is selected on the error message, to return to the input box so in my macro below where the error message says "An error occurred - you asked for a subcontractor that does not exist. Please try again." and the user selects OK, I would like it to return to the 'Enter the Subcontractor line and the "Please enter the Subcontractor code" input box reappears.
macro which can paste the value from A1, to another B1 and when A1 is edited again, pasted it in B2. This will probably go on and on until B30. I have tried the if else then in Macro, and even the if elseif, but both don't go futher than B2. E.G A1=1 B1=1 A1=4 B2=4 A1=3 then nothing happens to B3. If there is a way to make this work, it will be great. The way i am tryin to get it is to have =if(B1="","",1) for each cell from C1:30 and with C31 the formula "=count(C1:C30)+1". Then i formated C31 to a custom and make it so that before numbers, there is an B. This means that if B1,2,3 and 4 and numbers in them, then C31 will read B5. That will be the cell i want my next record to go. I would prefer it if there is just a code that i can enter that will go to the next cell when it knows the current cell has a digit in it but if i have to, the count way will do,
View 9 Replies View RelatedI need to copy a changing source cell, paste its value into another specific cell (always the same), and then return to the source cell for continued action (ie range selection, copy & value paste, which I can code).
This action is then followed in the next cell to the R of the first cell copied, etc to end of data. I can code the move to the R.
How do I return to the source cells as part of a loop?
Specific notes included in attached - I hope I've explained it clearly.
A little context:
Searching this forum for "sleep", "delay" or "animation" will bring up a host of threads referring to the kernel32 function, sleep. This is a great way of putting small delays into code without the potential "synchronisation" problems of application .ontime calls or the "ugliness" of multiple-thousands looping.
My question:
When I call sleep (with values in the hundreds of milliseconds) several times in a macro, it seems like the computer just "gives up" screen updating after a few (maybe 50) iterations. The macro still takes the time I'd expect, accounting for all the sleeps, but it stops showing the intermediate steps and just shows the end result after the macro ends.
Is this something to do with RAM? Is there something about calling this command too much or too frequently that kernel32 doesn't like? Is my computer a useless bag of nails and spit?
I have a macro running in a workbook that gathers some data (a date, a string and a few arrays). Towards the end of this macro, I need it to open another workbook and run a macro that sits in this other workbook, using the data from the first workbook. I then need it to return some results (several integers) back to the first macro to be pasted into the first workbook.
I gather that I can't use 'Call' as the second macro is in another workbook.
I've found that I can use Application.Run but I'm unsure how to carry variables back and forth using this.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am about to write a small macro to do a iteration calculation. I would like though for the user to select me a cell so that the macro uses the value in that cell to start calculations. Now, what I think would be the problem is how do I code a "time" or notice an action such as clicking in a cell to continue with the macro.
Would it be by inserting a pause in the code of a certain time so that gives the user time to click and wait for the code to start? If so, how would much time is enough? Is there another thing that could restart the code such as "noticing a click in a cell" command in VBA?
I am trying to create a macro, that ultimately does the reverse of one written a while back.
I have created a macro that exports "Roster_Data" to "envision_Roster" in .csv style formatting. What I want to achieve is reverse engineer the macro to return the data back to a similar state.
I am trying to transpose column D into rows that correspond with dates in column c in a sheet called "OutputView" this in essence is similar if not exactly the same as the original worksheet "Roster_Data"
I have split the macro I am working on into three separate modules.
Module 1 - Initial Export of "Roster_Data" to "envision_Roster"
Module 2 - Format and output worksheet to find MAX date and MIN date and produce top rows of data
Module 3 - Analyse, Undertake Logical Tests of data, and transpose to suit (Replicate the initial "Roster_Data" view)
