Code To Generate 'date' Ref Number
Apr 24, 2008
each time a button is clicked I want a new ref number to be produced and displayed on my userform.
I can't however create the code to generate this ref number.
In column A of my 'sweeplog' worksheet is where I want the ref number to be placed. This ref number is simply made up of today's date - in format ddmmyy eg 240408 for today 24th April 2008 then add the number '1' if its a new date or the next number in coulumn A if not.
for example In column A I have these 3 ref numbers
A2 = 2404081 (24th April 2008 plus 1 as this is the first ref used today)
A3 = 2404082 (as above but with 2 added)
A4 = 2404083 (as above but with 3 added)
now tomorrow the next ref number that would be shown in column A (after the user clicks the button) would be as follows.....
A5 = 2505081 (25th April 2008 plus 1 as this is first ref used on 25th)
I am able to get this unique ref number to show in my userform but can't figure out how to produce the code to generate it

Is there a function that allows you to read column A for an ID (these may or may not include letters/numbers/"?", are non-sequential and are of variable lengths) and, if it is the first time that it has seen an ID column B will read "sample_1_arm_1", if its the second time it has seen an id it will read "sample_2_arm_1", etc? An example of what I am trying to do on a much larger scale:
id
event_name
C83-858
sample_1_arm_1
[Code].....

I need to convert a date into a serial number. The serial number must return the format DDDYYNN where DDD is the day of the year, YY is the year, and NN is the sequential build number. As an example, if 10 units are built on 2/6/2013, the serial numbers would be 0371301, 0371302 ...0371310. Cell A1 would contain the current date (2/6/13) in this example. Column B1 - B10 would be the sequential serial numbers generated by the formula.

modifying the following VBA code; this code auto-generates 4-digit unique numbers, using zero as one of the starting digit as well. I need the 4-digit numbers NOT to begin with a zero, the 4-digit numbers should only begin with numbers 1-9.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim Cell As Range
Dim Test As Integer

I have a file that I want to name based on content in certain cells. I.e. "Q-(text from cell G1)-(text from cell B7)-Date(mm_dd_yy)". I want to be able to specify the location where I save this file each time I try to save it, but I want it to update the file's name if any of the parameters have changed.
I have some code generated that does just about everything right except that it automatically saves a version of the file in the folder where the original is located even though it also brings up the dialog box and allows me to save it in another location.
Basically, I want to fix the code below so that it doesn't save what appears to be a backup file each time. Should I be using some sort of savecopyas?
Code:
Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
'Add the quote # to the header
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.RightHeader = "Quote No. " & Range("G1").Value
[Code].....

is if there is a way to generate random numbers between 0001 and 9999. I always need to always have 4 digits. The first couple of numbers can be 0 so that I can maximize the number of variations.

i have worked in access using vba procedures. i can easily create a form in access that generates a random integer number between 0 and 20 and the user will guess the number between 1 to 20 if the random number is 16 and the user enters 14 the program will display a msg box saying too low or too high. here is the code .
Option Explicit
Private Const MAX = 20
Private Const MIN = 1
Private iKey As Integer
Private lTries As Long
Private Function Random() As Integer
Random = CInt(Int((MAX - MIN + 1) * Rnd() + MIN))
End Function
Private Sub cmdGuess_Click()
Dim lGuess As Long
now i have to do the same thing in excel create a program that will ask the user to enter numbers between 0 to 20 and see if the random number and user guess is same or not. but i have never worked in excel using vba procedures how can i achieve the same thing in excel using a vba procedures.

I was trying to use the VBA code to generate a data table:
Private Sub createDataTable(WS As Worksheet, initialRow As Integer, numCol As Integer, numRows As Integer)
Dim initialCell As Range 'specify the upper left cell
Dim RefCell As Range 'the reference cell on the caculator sheet
'activate source sheet
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Calculator").Activate
Set RefCell = ActiveSheet.Cells(2, 3)
WS.Activate
Set initialCell = ActiveSheet.Cells(initialRow, 1)
initialCell.offset(numRows, numCol).Select
Selection.Table ColumnInput:=RefCell
'the calculation should be automatic, if not, then calculate
WS.Calculate
End Sub
and it kept giving me an input celll not valid error on this line: Selection.Table ColumnInput:=RefCell the thing is, I have defined RefCell as a range object, so it should be OK rite?

I've created a userform to track attendance. The code below creates entries based on the activities undertaken on that day; one row for each activity reflecting Name, ID, date, Activity and comments. The intent is that several activities can be undertaking on a day, and the code generates separate rows for each activity....

I'm wanting some sort of formula to generate a reference number that relates to numbers i put in a cell. i want the end result to look something like this:
Reference number
362 3620001
456 4560001
362 3620002
487 4870001
456 4540002
As you can see id like it to generate a reference number to the number that i input, and also when i input that number twice or three times it picks that up on the reference number also.

In column A on sheet1 I have a list of unique numbers . On sheet2 I have a list of unique numbers that are available. I am currently using this formula,
=INDEX(Sheet2!A:A,MATCH(TRUE,INDEX(Sheet2!A:A"",0,1),0),1)
to look at sheet2 and tell me what number is next after I copy it to sheet1. My problem is how do I automatically generate the next number onto sheet1(by double clicking) and have that number removed from sheet2?

I need to enter a revision string into a file.
Basically, I need to combine the filename and its generation time and then encode it into a string (i.e. a 6 digits HEX code or 6 digits using [0-9][a-z][A-Z]) so it would generate a pretty much unique revision number.
So, is there any function that you can think of that would do something similar?
If not, what is the best to tackle this?
Generate a CRC or md5sum?
What would be in your opinion a quick and efficient way to solve this tricky one?

If n = 5, then I want to generate a string like this: "1+2+3+4+5". Similarly, if n = 7, I want the string "1+2+3+4+5+6+7".
I can generate the consecutive numbers, but have not figured out how to generate the required string.

I need the easiest way to randomize or generate team numbers in a league. Using COL A assign numbers between 1 & 8 without duplicates. Then repeat 5 more times. This has to be done on the spot and has time constraints as the players will be waiting for their team assignments.
EXAMPLE: I have 48 players which will be assigned to 8 teams of 6. I want to randomize the drawing so the same players don't play on the same teams each week. Also to be able to adjust number of teams determined by how many players are present. either 6 , 8, or 10 teams.

I recently showed my supervisor (again) how to double click on a pivot table to generate a worksheet that shows the records that were used to calculate the pivot table information. He's finally impressed and now wants me to perform the following miracle:
Workbook 1 contains multiple pivot tables showing completed project costs. The tables are broken down by various topics such as designer, worktype, project number, and amount of overrun or underrun. I update this report each month with completed projects.
Workbook 2 is a new report recently developed which contains contract modifications for ongoing and completed projects. It is updated weekly but may be updated monthly in the future.
He would like to click on a project number in Workbook 1 and have it generate a report with Data from Workbook 2 showing all the contract modifications that were written for the project. I told him this would probably work better in Access but he gave me "that look" because he does not want to use Access. This will be shared with other members of management who also do not want to use Access.

Monthly I am sent a spreadsheet detailing cost centre approval ranges for our management team. Unfortunately, the data provided shows a low range and high range in two different columns. Is their a formula to automatically generate the values for the missing numbers
For example
columns A
1001
&
columns B 1007
Can excel automatically generate the 1002, 1003, 1004, 1005 & 1006

How can I generate all the combinations a 3 digit number produces? Example 123 can be written as the following:

I THINK this is all the combinations it will produce.

On my timesheet, there is a button that, when clicked, allows you to select a pay period end date. Our pay periods end every other Friday. When the button is clicked, it opens a form I designed that has a listbox that I manually entered every pay period for the year into. Here is the code I used:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
' Populate the ListBox control.
listPayPeriodEndDates.AddItem "04/03/09"
listPayPeriodEndDates.AddItem "04/17/09"
listPayPeriodEndDates.AddItem "05/01/09"
listPayPeriodEndDates.AddItem "05/15/09"
listPayPeriodEndDates.AddItem "05/29/09"
listPayPeriodEndDates.AddItem "06/05/09"
listPayPeriodEndDates.AddItem "06/19/09"
listPayPeriodEndDates.AddItem "07/03/09"
listPayPeriodEndDates.AddItem "07/17/09"
listPayPeriodEndDates.AddItem "07/31/09"
listPayPeriodEndDates.AddItem "08/07/09"
listPayPeriodEndDates.AddItem "08/21/09"
listPayPeriodEndDates.AddItem "09/04/09"........................
What I'd like to do instead is have VBA populate the listbox (or combobox or what have you) dynamically, by using a reference point (say, the first pay period of the year) and then populating every other Friday from that point forward. Also, it would be great if it could reference the current date as to only list pay period end dates in the future (or even the two prior to todays date, and then maybe 3 or 4 pay period end dates in the future).

I'm trying to set up a system of sorts to track "services"
At the top of my 'new service" page, I need a button, which I then need to have a macro run on.
Sheet 1 is basically where I'd be entering the info, and sheet 2 where it would be stored. The button at the top is called Generate New "service' Number. This then needs to generate a new number on sheet 2 in A2 (then once 2 is populated, generate new in 3, then 4, then 5 etc...
I have a macro on Save Service Button at the bottom, which transposes the data into what would be used as a database to store all the services. That Macro then also needs to only transpose and paste data into the row corresponding with the "service number".
