I'm having this problem where I used the camera tool to take a shot of some range of cells. After taking here on the worksheet the image looks fine but when I print preview the same image seems to be bigger than the actual image.
View 4 RepliesThe title in the attached chart is a camera shot transferred from another excel 2007 worksheet in the same workbook.
I'd like to remove the border line, I've tried right clicking... then format picture ...no dialogue box comes up. I've scrolled through all the commands in the ribbon + non ribbon commands and can't find anything that seems appropriate that's not greyed out ....

How to use the Camera Icon Tool using a Macro?
I want to copy the First Row which is the Column heading of one Sheet to a different Sheet
Example : From Col A till Col G First Row is to be copied as an Image. Normally I do it using the Camera Icon, however when I tried recording a Macro for the same it did not work..
So how do I that if I provide the Start Column and End Column Alphabet as a Variable is that possible.. I want this Image to not remain Volatile which is the case using the Camera Tool..
So, how do i get the picture of only the first row or any row and store it is an Image in a different sheet as static picture so that even when the sheet is moved to a different location it does not make a difference to the Image.
So what's so special about the Excel camera tool? To me, copy and paste do the same thing. What else can it do that Copy cannot?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIn Excel 2010, I used the camera tool to take a snapshot of a selction of cells. How do I save the snapshot only as a JPG or GIF file?
I know that there are programs outside of Excel that can take snapshots or print screens, but I need to accomplish it using the camera tool so the snapshot is the exact selection everytime. Is the excel snapshot temporarily saved somewhere on my computer where I can access it?
I have place a camera-picture of a table on the right side of a chart. On the screen it looks great! (See below - with some redaction)

.... but when I print it the table expands off of the side of the chart. Scale is 100%, zoom is 100%, Excel 2010 (See below - with some redaction). Whether or not I have a print area does not seem to make a different in the problem. Also, it appears that this happens with any shape I put in that place, it's not specific to the camera tool.

I'm making a dashboard and currently using a camera tool to show a sheet in a different workbook.
However the camera shot should show the sheet for the current month. (the workbook contains 12 sheets one for each month)
I was trying to reference a cell within the dashboard workbook in the formula bar to select the correct month.
[Code] .....
This is the workbook being referenced and
[Code] ....
This is what I have to try select the sheet with the right month. W2 contains whatever month it currently is.
I get that this formula is wrong because I'm referencing a sheet/cell in the dashboard workbook right after calling the tracking workbook, I just don't know how to write it correctly.
Description:The chart shown in the file is a picture using the Camera Tool. The real chart is in the worksheet "Chts". When using the dropdown & radio button, the chart is supposed to change accordingly.
Problem 1:The picture from the camera tool seem to be blurry. The lines also seem thicker. Any rectifications for this?
Problem 2:If I save this file as "xlsx", the chart will not change dynamically when the dropdown is changed.

I am using the camera tool in excel to show a range of cells. Is it possible to change the range the camera tool looks at conditionally? It's possible to do it manually and I've seen this done using a camera object to refer to charts in single cells, but have been unable to figure out how to do it by range.
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy goal is to learn how to universally add specific codes to all clients in one shot.
Here's an example of the data I'm working with......
In column A - I currently have a list of 200 unique clients listed multiple times (1000 rows).
In column B - I have several different types of codes, but that are the same for each client.
Example:
A B
Client 1 Code A
Client 1 Code B
Client 1 Code C
Client 2 Code A
Client 2 Code B
Client 2 Code C
Etc. Etc. for 200 clients
So the question is: When adding a new code, How do I add a codes to all clients in one shot?
I have worksheet that contains the wording "Total For Page" in columns A:N. I would like to find that wording delete that row and 3 rows below it. found the code below that works, but I have to continually run it to find the wording and delete the rows. The code doesn't search all and delete in one shot.

Need to import multiple text files in one shot. (Excel only allows 1 at a time)
Most file names are similar just numbered. ex. JoeBlowfile 1.txt, JoeBlowfile 2.txt, JoeBlowfile 3.txt, etc......
All text files have 30 lines of text
For example: JoeBlowfile 1.txt will start at A1 and end at A30, then JoeBlowfile 2.txt starts at A31 and ends at A60 and so on.....
May need to import 1 to 10000 files at a time.
all in 1 row single line starting at A1
once all files are imported need to export to 1 single text file file saved in XXXX folder with XXXX.txt name.
Any way to create individual excel files for over 300 people in one shot.
I have created an excel template and have a list of 300 people. Rather than one at a time, is there a way to do it in one shot?
My problem is how do i get multiple column values at one shot.
For example in one excel sheet i have columns A,B,C,D,E and in A column i have all the Partner ID's and rest of the columns i have the data.
Now in other excel file I have Partner ID's which are not in order...now i want the data in all 5 columns according to partner id's from the previous sheet i need to do a vlookup function for five times to get the same data....is there any way that we can do it in one shot.
I want to use the Camera facility to show a 13 column by 19 row section of a large report in another WorkBook. I have outlined the area I need copied .... clicked the Camera icon .....but when I enter the data in the receiving sheet I keep getting the message ...." The Picture is too large and will be truncated" Is there a maximum size that can be transferred
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am a complete newbie with the camera tool. Is there any way to make the camera tool dynamic so that the cells the tool is referencing can change upon the click of a button or some other form of switch? I am creating my first dashboard and this is the last step for my report to be completely dynamic.

Never mind, I apologize i just figured this one out...
Create a user defined formulaIn the UDF Create an if statementThe if statement's condition is the logistics in the shift mechanismThe value if true is the first group of cells you want in the snap shotThe value if false is the second group of cells you want in the snap shot, The range you want to toggle betweenRename the cell reference of any snap shot you have taken with the UDF name. In my example my UDF is "Dude" so when you select the camera tool it shows =Dude as the cell referenceReference a scroll bar to the conditional cell you selected in the if statement or choose statement. This is the shift mechanism
If you want to toggle between more than 2 sets of data use =Choose instead of =if

I have been using it to take a picture of a graph, pasting to an alternative sheet within the same workbook, and renaming the picture by a defined name. S by selecting the names from a drop down list the picture will select various different sized graphs defined within my drop down.
What I am experiencing is when I initially do this the pic works great and resizes automatically with each selection, however the next day some of the pictures resize and some do not.
Is this a glitch within excel or am I missing a setting which will resolve this?
Within the 'tools' menu option you have 'Macros'. On a standard tool bar you have the option to record a new macro, edit......, however sometime last week I created a custom button and placed icons on my tool bars that allowed me to click them to record new or run custom made macros. After a clicking the 'custom macro' buttons a few times by mistake, I decided to remove the custom buttons in the hope of returning the macro options (within the 'Tools' menu option) back to normal. However this has not been the case. Now I have no option to record a new macro the the 'tools' menu system.....it has disappeard. Please could someone tell me how I can reset the 'Tools' menu system back to normal?
I am trying to create a simple translation tool for my product catalog, which is in Japanese, to English.
I have the Japanese and the English terms listed in a file (say, File A) in Col A and Col B which will keep increasing every week.
I want to create a macro which goes thru this list and replaces ALL the Japanese terms to English in "ALL THE SHEETS OF THE PRODUCT CATALOG" (say, File B) .
I have created a button in File A so that when I press this button, I browse my computer, select the file (product catalog) to be translated, replace all the Japanese terms to English terms in ALL THE SHEETS and saves it under a different filename.
I'm a big fan of the old crossword these days so i decide that i will try and create a crossword creator in excel!
problem is i'm not sure how to use the Thesaurus tool?
Lets say i have a string in cell A1 how would i modify the string using the thesaurus?
also any idea how i can randomly generate a word?
I have an application that I attached to this post, which I have been working on, for the last four or months, in my free time on the weekends and the last part I need some help with. The doc has been updated with new macros and a chart.
I would like help with a macro that I can activate and cause a message box to appear when I open the excel doc. I would like also to be able to activate the message box and its associated macros after the document has been opened. If you look on Sheet1 of the attachment you’ll get an idea of where I am trying to go with the message box. I would like it to have
- Message “The Current Time is (Macro puts current computer time here)”
- Question “How much time do you have?” then beneath this question
- Blank field labeled Hour to give answer
- Blank field labeled Minute to give answer
Depending on the current time on the computer as well as the hour and minute entered, a macro with a matching title (each macro includes a time, hour, and minute in its Sub name) a code in VBA will be selected that fits that criterion. For example, let’s say it is 5:30am and I entered 1 hr and 15 min in the empty fields of the message box. As a result the macro named “Sub Hour1Min15time530am” will be activated. Also due to the fact that the macros I have are in 15 min intervals the code would need to round to the nearest time, so if it was 5:33am when I ran the code the macro would default to 5:30am whereas if it was 5:39am when I ran the code the macro would default to 5:45am. You’ll see time controls at the bottom of the application. If I can get the code I am looking for those are going to be removed.
I am making a Program search tool for my company. I would like the operator to type a part number into a cell. If the part number is valid (from a master list on a different sheet), then I would like to pull the information from the master list and populate a few cells on the search worksheet.
Example:
An operator types: "W3303-01" in a cell and clicks a button. The macro would populate cells on that worksheet with information from another worksheet that pertains to "W3303-01"
I have 143 macros, but I put 8 of them here b/c the post would not go through with all of them. I couldn't fit all of them on an attachment either b/c the file size was too big. However, I have this goal I have been working on for the last three months on the weekends and the last part.

Do we have NumericUpDown Tool Control in MS Excel 2003 that can be employed on a userform. The one similar to the numericupdown of VB.NET. I want to restrict user to input only numerals. Though I can use IsNumeric Validation in Textbox_Change event but still I was curious to know if there is any other in-built function in MS Excel.

I want to let my buttons on tool bar in group status, there is a saparator bar between two groups, what can I do? I tried but no any result.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have 2 sheets, one with users and a tool they have been using, and one with a list of unique users, I would like to count how many unique users are using a tool. The sheets are set up like so,
Sheet 1
User Tool (number of uses)
abcdefg 1
hijklmn 5
1234567 1
1234567, abcdefg, opqurst 2
wxyz123 0
Sheet 2 Have they used the tool
abcdefg
hijklmn
1234567
wxyz123
opqurst
So yes, I am trying to count whether or not the unique users have used the tool, this is a simplifed version as my data set runs into the thousands. I was using the countifs function, but that doesnt count properly if theres more than one user in the group.
I've been look for an excel tool to draw venn diagrams with the 'circle' size in propartion to the set (population) sizes and the correct degree of intersect.
Having no luck I've made one myself - it's not pretty (the code sure is ugly) but it get's the job done.
May not work in versions earlier than xl07 - haven't been able to test
So take a look - pull it to pieces all you want.

Silly question..but that's never held me back.
I am preparing Vendors' Directory for our company. This Directory has different products listed in seperate sheets. The names, phone numbers and address of various vendors' are listed in each sheet.
My problem is that I want to create a new sheet with a find tool that will search particular name of the product or the vendor from all the sheets (say product A, product B) and list out complete information in single page.
I have attached a sample excel sheet which is supposed to search the name "Daniel" from sheets - Product A and Product B and list it out in the first sheet. The sample does not work.
I use this code to hide the tool bars in a workbook, the code works but when I go to a new sheet the row and column headings are visible. I tried several things that didn't work.
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
On Error Resume Next
With Application
.DisplayFullScreen = True
[Code] ..........
