what code I can put behind a button so that once I click on that button,
What ever cell i click on, the whole row of that cell will be colored a certain color.
Is this where i would used a target approach?
i want the user to be able to change the cell color on the click of a command button. the worksheet is protected. when the user click the command button the active cell changes to red and offsets by 1. then the work sheet is locked again.
The two problems I am having is 1. I want the range to begin from row 10, column k to column FD. all cells down
the second problem is the current code allows me to edit locked cell columns A to J ...
I was wondering if it is possible to change the color of a command button after it's been clicked?
This is to allow the user to identify which buttons have already been clicked.
Need a method for launching the color palette from a Button Click event so that the palette opens, the palette may be used to set a color, then have the color palette return the Long INT color value to the calling click event routine?

I have a master "update" commandbutton on sheet 1. I have two sub "update" buttons on sheet 2 and 3 respectively.
What I would like to do is have the user click the master button, that would "click" the two sub buttons so they run their respective macros on their respective worksheets (within the same worksheet.
I have tried pasting the macro code in the master button, telling it to select the sub worksheet and then run the macro, but the marco runs itself on the master worksheet instead.
I currently am using a form button to create new rows.
I need two different kind of buttons. I have a button that does this-
VB:
Sub InsertRow()
'this inserts a row where the button is clicked.
Dim r As Range
[Code]....
However, when I try and create these codes using a Command button (I need it for the color), I get the error
"unable to get the buttons property of the Worksheet class"
P.S one other thing, say the button is in row 3, and Cells A1 and A2 are merged, when you click the button in row 3, it should extend the merge to A3.
In Excel 2007 I been scanning in the forum for example code. If a cell is clicked on Then highlight the that row from cells A to K. If it is clicked again change it back to no color.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI want to set up a column so that by clicking a cell once it changes value AND color.
For eg a clicked cell changes to green with a value of 1 point, click again it changes orange with a value of 2 points, click again it changes to red with value of 3 point, then finally click again goes back to no fill with nil value.
This would very very useful for marking my candidates results and categorising them by their level of understanding of a question.
The problem is that the cells which need to change are locked and have a object group ontop of them and are not all in one row or column..
The cells which need to change are A4,A5,A6,B6,C6,D6,E6,F6,G6,H2,H3,H4,H5,H6,I6,J6,K2,K3,K4,K5,K6.
It sort of a theme changer for my spreadsheet incase people want a change and can do all of it with one click of a button or maybe click on a cell with the colour on it and have that colour copy itself to the range.
I have two sheets - Data and Mail.
I am using a userform to collate the information in the "data" sheet and have a unique ref number in column A. Data populates columns A - AC.
In sheet "Mail" I enter the Ref number and it pulls through the info using vlookups into a template which I then e-mail as the body of the text on the click of a macro button.
I wish to capture the date each time the button is clicked in the same data row starting in column AD then AE etc.
I have cobbled all of this together by searching around this forum - I have not expertise so please be gentle with me!

I have many workbooks that I receive from clients I run various Excel VBA macros on depending on which workbook it is, and I need to automate all of this so that anyone can run an simple .exe user interface designed in VB 2005 Express Edition where when that interface is run, a window opens on the destop with a collection of buttons, when the user clicks one of the buttons, Excel launches, loads the appropriate file and runs an already-existing appropriate Excel macro, then some file maintenance is done, like moving a group of files from one subdirectory to another.

Unfortunately, the data it pulls is usually old. I've found the only solution is to open a browser manually and to click the Reload button on the web page then navigate back to my workbook and run it again. Then it will pull the most up to date info.

I could just call the macro which is assigned to the button in this code. But the requirement is that the button click operation should call the macro.
