View 11 RepliesI am trying to format all cells on all sheets (hidden or otherwise) as "Locked" so when the sheets are protected the user can't see the formulas. This macro individually selects every sheet in the book and applys the formatting. Is there a way to modify this code to accomplish the same thing without having it actually select every sheet? The only reason it is an issue is that after running the macro you end up on the last sheet in the book.
View 7 Replies View Relatedim looking for a basic macro for workbook copying, all workbook(all hidden, unhidden, and very hidden) sheets.
i know how to do unhidden sheets of course however the hidden and very hidden are giving me some trouble...i need to also copy over all the macro's, buttons, and drop down box's as well..not just values.
I found some code that is working great, but I'd like to add some functionality to it if it can be done. When a cell is clicked in Column G it is displaying a % found in Column F in the same row as G under the cell similar to a comment without using the comments option. The problem I'm finding though is that if Column F is hidden then it is not displaying the results in the cell found in Column G. Here is the
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim Row As Integer
Dim Amount As String
Row = ActiveCell.Row
Amount = Range("F" & Row).Text
Basically I'd like to know if it is possible to show the comment in G if the Cell it is trying to reference is hidden.
I want to Freeze my Header Row (A16 to T16) on my spreadsheet but I can't seem to get it to freeze. I wanted to have it freeze when that row reached the Top of the page but all I can do is freeze it and the 15 rows above it. Can one row be made to be visible at all times? I don't think so as I asked this question before but thought I would start by asking it again...
Now my workaround for that was to put the header row at the top of the page as well and freeze it. This works but when you initially open the spreadsheet it look weird because you see a header row on top and one 15 rows below it.
My question is is there a way to hide row 1 until a specific cell becomes active and then the code can undide the row? I want row one to become visible when the user gets to cell A41. Does anyone know how I can accomplish this or do you have any other suggestions for me to try?
i have a Macro that gets rid of Hidden columns and Rows.
but i kept getting REF# errors.
so i changed the macro to Paste as values before the rest of the macro.
but then my Subtotal's dont work.
macro that only Paste the values of formulas that refer to a hidden cell?

1. find the last cell used in a column when the rows that contain the data are hidden. I tried using Range("A65536").End(xlup).Select. but when the rows are hidden it doesn't give me the last cell used.
2. I am trying to restrict my search to just one row. When I try using the cells.find function it looks for the whole sheet but I just want it to search for some particular data in just one row or a specified range.
I have few column values to count. I don't want the hidden column value. In that formula the hidden value also counted. How to ignore that hidden column value count, using macro/formula.
eg:
col A - col B - col C - col D - col E - col F
Task -- ok1 -- ok2 -- no1 --- ok3 -- ok4
Col D should be hidden. Final count result should be: OK = 4; No=0
I have a spreadsheet where i have security set to prevent a user from selecting locked cells. However when a user selects a cell that is in a row at the bottom of the vissible area the comment text can not bee seen. What i need is to determine what the bottom vissible row is and use that to compare the row number of the current row and thus decide if i should scroll down to improve the visibility of the help text for the cell in question.
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe attached sample workbook has a listbox of areas in a userform. The Textbox on the user form is so that the user can edit the Area names in the listbox. The userform functions fine as long as the column that contains the area name is not hidden. What I want to be able to do is edit the Area Names using the Textbox with the area name column hidden.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Workbook with multiple worksheets. On one of my worksheets (Sheet4) I have three cells, let's call call them A1, A2 and A3.
A1 = Annual Budget
A2 = Money carried over from last year
A3 = Current financial year.
Formulas in other sheets are dependent upon these cells. I also have 3 userforms, one relating to each cell, with each form containing a textbox which enters its contents into its respective cell after clicking a command button. The userforms should display if the cell it relates to is empty. For example,
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
If .Range("A1) = "", Then
Budget_Form.show
End If
End Sub
The problem I have is that the userforms only appear if I manually change the contents of the cells that they relate to. I need the sub to run every time the workbook recalculates. On top of that, I want the sheet to be hidden but the subs to still run. After looking around on other sites, I have pieced together the following code and placed it in the code for Sheet4
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()..................
How can I view hidden characters inside an excel cell. I have an excel file that I receive from our vendors. After verifying the data, I save the file as a tab delimited .txt format. When I open the .txt file I see some data with " " at both ends. i.e. "800 North Ave. Suite A". The thing is I don't see the " " in excel. This tells me that these are non-printing characters.

Currently, my excel is protected with a password "PSWD" when users open the file. In my vba script, I have a function that can unprotect my excel without any password input box to the users. This method is to unprotect the file and allow users to do any formating columns and rows tasks, such as add or delete cells. After users finish their job, the file will be protected back. The function is such as below:
Dim wSheet As Worksheet
For Each wSheet In Worksheets
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
If wSheet.ProtectContents = True Then
wSheet.Unprotect Password:="PSWD"
Else
My questions are:
1. How I can create a hidden sheet that has one cell populated only?
2. How can I assign the password that the user enters at the "TextBox1" (first code) to a cell of of the hidden sheet? Do I have to modify the first code?
3. For the second code, how am I going to assign the value to at the wSheet.Unprotect/Protect Password:="..." with whatever the user has previously chosen as a password that refers at the hidden sheet?
First, I can get the balance formula, and when I drag the square at the bottom right, I am able to drag the entire formula down...I want to do that. However, when I drag it down, the number keeps popping up. I was wondering if there is a way to be able to drag the entire thing down and be able to make it so that it is hidden (the cell is blank) unless the debit or credit cell in the corresponding row is filled. Also, if possible, I want to be able to drag it down to infinity, so it can go on forever, so that there is no need to always drag it down when I add more things in it. I am attaching what I have till now.
View 5 Replies View Relatedi have an old spreadsheet that i created about a year or so ago.
i managed to make some sheets "very hidden" as opposed to just "hidden" or "visible".

i do have passwords for them, but i can't find them to put these in!

I am using the VLookup function with two seperate sheets. The first sheet is what I have created. The second sheet is one that was given to me.
I know how to build the format as I have done it numerous times in the past. This one only works if I copy the data into notepad, then copy it back into excel. Then it will work. I have looked at the formatting and I cannot see any differences.
way to get it to work without the notepad part?
I have a 15 sheet spreadsheet that has many formula and results that are obtained from a "Master Sheet." I want to hide the "Master Sheet" from users view.
When I do so the formulae can't find the info they require. How do I hide a sheet so that users can't see it, but the formula from other sheets can still access it?

View 6 Replies View RelatedOn my worksheet, each row between 20 an 50 may be hidden or unhidden; that will constantly change. When one of these rows is hidden (such as row 21), I'd like the value in column C in that same row (such as C21) to be 0 (zero). If the row is visibile, I'd like the value in column C in that same row to be 1. Is there worksheet code to do this?

View 9 Replies View Relatedi've an excel file where a final presentable sheet is linked to some hidden sheets which i dont want the user to see. Thru VBA, i'm performing some format related stuff in those hidden sheets, using: Sheets("Historical1").Visible = True. later, VBA sets it back to FALSE. But, i want to get rid of this hiding/unhiding, if its possible. My code has the following structure:
Sub tame_blph1()
Sheets("Historical1").Visible = True
Sheets("Historical1").Activate
Dim coll As Integer
Dim startcoll As Integer
Dim endcoll As Integer
startcoll = 25
endcoll = 124
For coll = startcoll To endcoll Step 2
If Len(selection) > 0 Then Call Macro1
Next coll
Sheets("Historical1").Visible = False
Sheets("Table").Select
End Sub
In other words, can we perform the above without hiding and unhiding the Sheet called "Historical1"
I have a worksheet with 28 sheets. I want the first sheet to be the only sheet displayed when opening the file and then want people to have the ability to click a hyperlink to unhide a particular sheet. Then when they go back to the main page (via another hyperlink), the sheet that was unhidden will be hidden again. I was able to put together some code from [URL]. When I click on a hyperlink on the main page, I get a "Subscript out of range" error and it highlights Sheets(strSheet).Visible=True from the Worksheet_FollowHyperlink code. I made a basic spreadsheet with just 3 sheets and plugged this code in and it worked fine so I'm not quite sure what the error is. I attached the spreadsheet I'm using.

How to copy a spreadsheet and NOT pick up the hidden columns?
I realise this might be nearly impossible or considered useless because no hidden columns would mean either making the copy with blank hidden columns or altering all formulas to suit a sheet which now does not have all the original columns.
When I choose to record a macro, the window to name the macro opens and allows me to name it, but when I close it, I can see it is recording at the bottom of the sheet, but the stop button with the relative/absolute button has disappeared. I can't change relative/absolute. How can I get the button back on the page?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet that currently has columns AB to XFB hidden. I want to unhide them, so I selected column AA and then drug the mouse over to the right (toward the empty space), intending to right-click and select "unhide". I do this all the time with no problems.
However, from the instant of my drag to the right, Excel has become totally unresponsive. I see it using 25% of my quad CPUs in task manager, but there is no active memory delta and it has been sitting for over 20 minutes now.
I'd rather not lose the work I just entered, but I can't seem to get Excel to come back to life by pressing escape or clicking in the worksheet. I've noticed slowdowns before when there is a lot of actual data in the cells selected, but these columns were empty to the best of my knowledge.
I have been sent a workbook which contains a number of formulae that reference hidden worksheets (see attached JPEG).
I cannot work out how to display these sheets? The workbook does not seem to be protected, I can edit and save the visible sheet. Can anyone shed some light on how to view the referenced sheets?
is there a code to hide specific columns that i dont really need. i dont want to delete them, just hide them. even if i try to unhide them manualy from Format- Unhide they dont unhide. These columns stay hidden at all time.
