I am developing a spreadsheet with numerous information on our different suppliers offices in the country for each of our outlets. I am tryin to define a way to do the following:
If a colleague selects a company another list will appear with the region and when the region is selected a list of the offices will appear.
Hi everyone I am having a little trouble with a sheet i'm currently working on. Having exhausted what i believe to be every avenue trying to do this without VBA, i've finally had to sucomb to it as i can't see an alternative and i'm no VB expert by any means! This is what i have so far:

I would like to be able to pause a timer on task A if when timer on task B is started and same as well with the other tasks.. When Task A is started again, it should continue the timer if not add the on-going time to the presently running time under that task.

Is it with a boolean value, i dont know the code.
I have an excel workbook right now with a 75x75 correlation matrix. It has 75 stock prices and uses bloomberg to pull in the correlation between each of the holdings. There is a lot of data so it takes roughly 35 seconds for it all to get pulled in from bloomberg. The input value that I can change is the date. The output value is a specific correlation coefficient. Thus, if I input today's date into a cell in the file, it will run the correlation matrix and tell me the correlation between all the holdings using the past year's data. Then it will produce a single output value.
I am now looking to use VBA to make this more robust. What I have been trying to do is have a macro which will -
(1) input the current date into the input cell
(2) have the code wait 35 seconds (and since it is using bloomberg pull in the traditional wait methods do not work because they actually stop the data pull in also)
(3) copy the output value
(4) paste special that value in a different cell
(5) repeat the process but this time use the date from a day before and have the output value copied and pasted to a cell below the previous one.
This loop would continue over 20 times.
Below I have some code that allows me to do this process once but is not looped and I have been stuck trying to make this work with a loop given the bloomberg delay. When I add a loop, it does not wait the 35 seconds I need before doing the whole process again.

I have macros that often pause for the user to take some action -- for instance, to confirm that the correct cells are selected, or to delete something. Usually I use the "Stop" command, which opens the VBA editor; when I finish doing the manual action, I just resume the macro.
When writing macros for actual users, I'd like to do the same thing without their having to deal with the VBA window. Is there a way to pause and resume action and remain in the Excel window?
I've written a macro for work that will work with our billing process. After part of it has run, I'd like to pause it for the user to check a column for errors and possibly update a table to get rid of those errors, then after those errors are fixed, have the ability to continue with the rest of the code. I tried to make a message box to remind the user to look for the errors, but it wouldn't allow me to click anywhere except for on the buttons.

I'm recording a Macro but I want to test certain section before I complete it, so can I pause the recording and then restart the recording again?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook with several hundred row the VBA code loops through. It takes about an hour to run all the calculations. Whenever I need to pause the script I hit ESC, which works well for me, but for other users it would be nice to have a command button that halts code. Even better would be another button to resume code.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a situation where I have an msg box pop up that asks the user to identify whether or not the file they have chosen meets the standards needed to continue running the macro. Specifically, I need them to answer "Yes" if the file has a list of data in the first column, if there are no blanks in that list and if the first row of data begins on Row 4. If they answer yes, the macro continues ahead and does what it needs to. If the person selects "no," another input box pops up that asks the user to make the edits. This msg box asks the user to click "ok" when they have made those edits. I want the macro to pause after the person has selected "no" from the first msg box, so that the person can make those corrections. Then, I want the macro to resume when the user selects "OK" on the second msg box. How might I do this? I have included the piece of my code below.
strresponse2 = MsgBox("Please confirm that the file you have selected meets the following standards:" & vbNewLine & "1. The information in the first column of this file is all of the job titles or job codes associated with this profile." & vbNewLine & "2. From the first job code or title to the last, there are no blank rows in this first column of data." & vbNewLine & "3. The first job title or code appears on Row 4, Column 1." & vbNewLine & "If the file you selected meets these standards, select Yes. If the file you selected does not meet these requirements, select No.", vbYesNo, "Yes/No")
If strresponse = 6 Then
Call getjobtitle
End If
If strresponse = 7 Then
'pause macro
strresponse2 = MsgBox("Please make the necessary edits to this file. When you are done, select OK to continue generating your job profile.", vbOKOnly, "OK")
If strresponse = 0 Then
'resume macro
Call getjobtitle
End If
End If
I am running a Showcase query from inside excel. I want the query to update, drop the data in excel save it and then close. The problem is that the save command is executing before the data is dropped. The Wait command pauses all processes so it won't work. Is there a way to have a minute of filler until the data is dropped so it will save?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI need to PAUSE my VBA code (about halfway through) in order to verify some calculations before I can allow the macro to finish running. If the numbers are correct, then I'd like the macro to finish running accordingly. However, if the numbers are incorrect, I need to be able to search my Excel file for the error (the error would be due to a format issue with the data that I pulled in), fix the error, and then let the macro finish running from the point it was paused.
Right now, I've got a Message Box that pops up asking me if the numbers are right and I have to answer YES or NO. I always answer NO so that the macro crashes -- this allows me to check the excel file without having to stop the macro. Once I've fixed the data problem, then I go back into my code and let it run to its conclusion.
I have searched and not found a solution. I have a project that requires the item to be printed on two different types of paper from a printer. The only way i have found to change trays is the sendkeys option. But it looks like sendkeys cannot send, then pause, then send. ex:
' first select the correct printer
Application.ActivePrinter = "\hagenCopy Room Savin 4045 PCL6 on Ne05:"
' next set change printing options, presses ok to print
Application.SendKeys "%fp%r+{TAB}{RIGHT}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{UP}{UP}{UP}{UP}{UP}{UP}{DOWN}{DOWN}~%c3~", True
' next set change printing options to other color tray, presses ok to print
Application.SendKeys "%fp%r+{TAB}{RIGHT}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{TAB}{UP}{UP}{UP}{UP}{UP}{UP}{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}~%c1~", True
How would one insert a working pause inbetween the two sendkeys (a wait just waits before the beginning of the first sendkey. and then the 2 try to execute at the same time calcelling both)
been checking out 1/2 a second wait instead of a 1 sec wait
and would like to know it you can do this
timer thing
Dim x As Single
x = Timer
While Timer - x < 0.5
Wend
more than once
it works the first time and then it sort of skips it
or is there ANOTHER way of having a delay of less than a second?
I am wanting to pause a macro to allow a user to select a cell and when the user hits enter the macro starts running again. My intention is that a user would select cell B5 or B8 or B55 and then hit enter and the cell would move 6 cells right and enter a value from the macro. The following is what I have tried and even though it allows to select a cell, it doesn't make that cell the active cell.

I would like to Pause a macro to allow the user to select a range on the spreadsheet and then click OK to continue with Macro.
I tried to use Msbbox, but I can't figure out how to allow user to access the spreadsheet to highlight the desired range.
Is there anyway to lap the execution of the 3 lines in the below code (sample) say by 10 seconds each ?
Sub Macro1()
'
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "AAAAAA"
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "BBBBBB"
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "CCCCCC"

I would like to create a combo box however the contents of the combo box depends on what i have selected in a previous combo box.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a macro where I manually select a cell then the macro kicks in to copy and paste the contents into the Find function. From there it goes to another work sheet, clicks on a cell in column one and searches for matching cell contents. Then If false it manually goes back to the original worksheet/cell and then I input a N in the left adjacent cell. If true I enter a Y. Right now I can only run this for the specific cell the macro was recorded for. I would like to expand this.
What I would like to do create a loop in the macro that waits for my cell choice input then continues with the with the Find function. If false the macro should just loop back to the original worksheet/cell and wait for input, ie the next cell selected. However, if true a worksheet/cell is selected, a Y is input and it loops back to the original cell and waits for input.
I am trying to pause a macro on a protected sheet, select 2 adjacent cells (initially protected), utilize an existing drop down box to select a name from the list, copy the name from the list into the range of cells, then re-start the macro.
I had no problem when there was just one name (see John Smith below). I tried to use the InputBox command but needed to actually type in the name.
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
Range("C27:D27").Select
'ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "John Smith"
' Application.CutCopyMode = False
' ActiveSheet.Paste
'Range("c27:d27") = InputBox("Enter value")
how to interrupt VBA code, allow user modifications to a chart, and then continue the code where it left off with a click of a button. I currently have the code in place where a UserForm pops up at a specific point and tells the user to make adjustments and press OK when done. It works fine but the UserForm displays and the macro resumes when OK is clicked, but I can't figure out how to activate the chart or the spreadsheet to allow editing while that UserForm is on the screen. If only I can get excel to allow me to sleect the spreadsheet and make changes while the UserForm is on the screen, I would be set. Can anyone please help me with any options to allow editing while the UserForm is on the screen so I can edit and then click the OK when done?
I posted something similar to this over two years ago. The way I got around it at the time was to break the code into two separate subs. This time around, the code is making 17 graphs and I want to ask for editing for each one before continuing. That would be a lot of individual sections of code.
I have numerous hyperlinks in cells on a worksheet, next to these I have checkboxes. I am looking for a macro that will check if the boxes are checked and if not ignore them and if so run a certain macro.
