I have two or more DIFFERENT INSTANCES of excel workbooks open at the same time. EX: Wk1, Wk2, & Wk3
Currently I have Wk3 showing in the screen.

This is part of a longer macro, so I only need to know how to do above.
I have an open workbook(A.xls) where the user can press a button which opens another workbook (B.xls) In workbook B they need to add new names then press another button to run another script. The script needs to switch to workbook A in order to work correctly. How can I switch to workbook A without using the name of the workbook? The reason I cant use the name to activate is because the first workbook that is open is not always A.xls

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a cell (B2) in which there is a formula referencing the value of another cell with the purpose of generating a URL- ="[URL] such that when a numeric value is entered in B3, B2 is made to contain the full URL including B3 as a unique identifier.
I have a macro which straightforwardly copies B2 and pastes its value in the same cell, rendering the text value of the URL.
How do I go about activating the URL as a hyperlink in the macro? It seems like if I click in the cell and hit return, or right-click/Hyperlink.../OK I'm creating a macro to reference the exact unique identifier present at the time that I'm recording the macro- e.g. if B3 is "123", I'm setting the macro to set B2 as [URL] rather than the actual unique identifier in B3.
Has anyone successfully activated the content of a cell as a hyperlink dynamically based on its exact content?

I have 5 Optionbuttons (in userform) named: Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3, Sheet4 and Sheet5.
When I open workbook Optionbutton1 (Sheet1) is activated, but what kind of loop(?) I need, if I want activate same named optionbutton than activate sheet.
Example: I activate sheet3 then Optionbutton3 (named sheet3) have to activated also.
I tried simple codes,
First worksheet:
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
OptionButton1.Value = True
End Sub
Second worksheet:
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
OptionButton1.Value = False
OptionButton2.Value = True
End Sub
I am getting old and can't remember how to activiate a graph to accept and show new numbers.
Example: In "Charts and Graphs for Microsoft Office 2007" by Bill how does one get the graph (Figure 3.35) to accept data for the coming months and have the data reflected in the Linear Trend Bar (the forecast bar is not in the figure) but I would like to include it?
1. What's the difference between:
Worksheets("Sheet1"). Range("A5").Select
and
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A5").Activate
?
2. Can I use a Selection. method with an object 'selected' using .Activate in the preceding code line?
3. Say I am currently on Sheet2, Cell A5. When I click the macro button, I want Excel to copy the value from Sheet1, Cell A5 and paste it into Sheet2, Cell A5. But I do NOT want the screen display to actually jump from Sheet2 to Sheet1, and then back to Sheet2. So do I need to use .Activate, or .Select, to copy the value of Sheet1, Cell A5?
I have a bunch of array formulas that need to be activated by going on the cell, hitting F2, then hitting Ctrl+Shift+Enter. In the attached sheet I have done a record macro to automate this. I have another sheet with something similar just a lot more items on Sheet1 (~250 items). It will be very time consuming for me to record macro and hit F2, then hit Ctrl+Shift+Enter ~250 times so I am wondering if there is any way to activate all the array formulas on the sheet in one go using 1 formula. I'm not too concerned with file size.Also, not all arrays only include columns A and C, other columns (D, G, H and J) are included too.

Consider using a Worksheet Calculate Event macro (not Change Event) to
monitor the cell in question and call your macro when conditions are right.

Above is the formula that I have, I am putting it into Column L. When I do auto fill every row that has data in J and K the formula goes into as you would expect.
However the formula does not activate until I double click inside each individual row and hit enter. Therefore if the calculation in L4 was 1.0, then 1.0 will appear as the calculation in every row of Column L until I double click in each row individually and press enter.

I have the below VBA code that I'm working on where I run it after I already have a workbook entitled BRNewBusiness121106.xls (or whatever day it is when I'm running the code) that's open, and the code opens another workbook, BR-MasterAccounts.xls and then does some work between the two workbooks.
The code is stopping with a "subscript out of range" error at this line:
Windows("BRNewBusiness" & Format(Date, "mm/dd/yy") & ".xls").Activate
Why is it doing this? What change do I need to make so the code will activate that already-open workbook?
