View 6 Replies View Relatedi have a macro button designed to wipe all user entered data into a workbook. I want it so you cant accidently press (as you cannot undo the operation). Anyway for making a dialog box appear asking if you are sure to wipe date, with a yes or not option.. no will obviously abort the macro.
if possible, another box to come up asking if you want to save the file first with a different file name (comes up with a save as box).
this is the code so far:
Sub MonthCleaner()
'
' MonthCleaner Macro
' Macro recorded 17/10/2005
'
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Range("A10:G10").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("H10").Select .........
I am modifying a corporate macro that is used in to create a standard technical letter. This standard file has 6 macros, that once used to create the letter, are never used again. I know, the first thing that jumps out is to create an add-in. I'd prefer not to got hat route at the moment for various reasons.
What I'm looking to do is after the letter is created, and the print macro is called and prints the letter, all macros are removed (already found help for this on this site), then check to see if the file has been saved, or still has the template name, and then either save or bring up the save as dialog box for the user to save the file with the appropriate name and folder.
I'm looking to create a macro that launches a dialog box upon file launch. Based on the input, I want excel to only show the tab which corresponds to the dialog box entry.
For example, if it asks "What is your name?" on file launch and I respond "Alex"; i want the tab labeled "Alex" to only be shown for the user.
Back in IE8, when you tried to download a file, it'd pop up a little box asking if you wanted to download or save the file. Macros in Excel could work through it using code like 'hWnd = FindWindow("#32770", "File Download")' to get the box and interact with it.
IE11 now has an obnoxious little ribbon that appears at the bottom of the window instead of the box, so FindWindow comes up blank.
There are a number of files including .xls, xlsx, and .csv, and there isn't a static link directly to the files, so I can't just put the link in workbooks.open. Also, to get some of the files, there are logins and forms to fill in with dates and the like. I can get through all of that stuff and click the button to download, but it's that open/close button that's stumped me.
Any way to get an Excel macro to interact with that Open/Save ribbon in IE11?
Stumbling over syntax on what should be easy. I want to password protect the active sheet using plain vanilla user input box; and then unprotect ALSO via an input box. Doesn't matter about masking the input with **** or whatever. Based on responses below, here is macro code I used:
To protect the sheet:
Sub ProtectSecurity()
Dim pword As String
pword = InputBox("Enter Password", "Password")
ActiveSheet.Protect pword
End Sub
---------------------------------
To Unprotect the sheet:
Sub UnprotectSecurity()
Dim pword As String
pword = InputBox("Enter Password", "Password")
ActiveSheet.Unprotect pword
End Sub
I have a workbook with 23 pages, each running a macro to calculate the final "answer".
I would like to make the title page comman button create a dialog box, listing the 23 pages/macros with a check-box for each (default is "checked") asking the user which macros / calculations to execute. Any ideas how to do this?
I am trying to avoid making this a sheet in my workbook.

I've forgotten how to prevent the macros from showing in the macro dialogue box.
I'm sure it's got to be something with the VBA editor, but I can't figure it out.
I've got some files where the macro list is hidden and I'd like to do the same again, but for the life of me....I'm stumped. I'm sure it's something very simple.
I've protected the Worksheet & Workbook.
I've done some searching...."macro hide", "hide dialogue" etc. but can't seem to find what I'm looking for.
It's been a while since I had to amend code, as everythings been running very smoothly.
Would like to be able to have a macro button or code that launches the Microstrategy Reports dialog box.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThis is what I'm trying to do:
1. When a user clicks on a Drop down box and selects "Add New", I would like a Macro to run
2. I want this Macro to open up a Dialog/Text box to say "Enter New Information" where the user can enter in some text
3. The text that is entered by the user into this box will be added as a new entry into the Drop down box selection
My VBA knowledge is still at a beginner's level and I know how to get a Macro to run based on a cell value. However I don't know how to create a Macro for the dialog box nor do I know how to create a Macro for updating the drop-down items.
I want to create a macro that will “open the look in list” and stop so I can pick a file to open. I’ve tried to use “record a macro” and “ctrl-o”, but the record a macro won’t stop until I pick a file or cancel the file list. I also tried to use “o” in the short cut key box
