Converting Recorded Macro Into Workable VBA To Add New Sheet At End Of Workbook
Apr 22, 2013
I have a button with a macro assigned. The macro needs to create a new worksheet at the end of the workbook, rename the new sheet to "New County", make the cell size match the rest of the workbook, and then paste in a template from another sheet called "Master".
I recorded a macro that does this, but it has a static reference to the new sheet instead of what ever the new sheet is. So the Macro works one time, but never again. I'm sure this is an easy fix, and perhaps there is a much easier way to do this, but my limited VBA knowledge is hampering me.
Code:
Sub AddNewCounty()
'
' AddNewCounty Macro
' Adds a new County sheet to the workbook.
'
'
I have been using the "record macro feature". What I want the macro to do is as follows. 1. cut all data from column C and paste it into G. 2. Use the textTocolumns feature to split a comma delimited string into 2 seperate columns. 3. user the textToColumns feature to remove any leading spaces from column G. 4. cut columns d-H and shift them left startign in column C.
I can do all of this find bu using the GUI while recording the macro but when I check the vb script it's completely missing the paste commands.
When I try and run the macro it, quite rightly, returns "run-time error '1004':No data was selected to parse.
Below is the resulting recorded macro.
How do I amend this macro do include pasting the cut data?
I recorded a macro (which worked), then tried to get more out of it by adding code to add a further function (which didn't work). The code is as follows:-
I have a workbook where I need to sort data with range (K2:L24), then move down 208 rows and sort range (K210:L232) and repeat this upto 1000 times. I have shortened a recorded macro as an example and would like to know how to loop or repeat.

I've recorded a macro in which I unhide certain columns, copy and paste some information then hide those columns again. The problem is that when the macro is finished, it incorrectly hides columns K to AN. I did not record that and it's not in the code so I'm lost as to why it's happening.
Why it's hiding everything from K to AN. I've tried recording the macro several times but it's just not working, no matter the order in which I hide columns when recording it.
I have a list of items in Sheet1 column A (starting from row 1).
I would like the corresponding column B to have certain values depending on the value in column A (same row), as follows:
If the value in column A has "SYS????CZ", column B should be "HPC" If the value in column A has "SYSNIS", column B should be "NIS" If the value in column A has "SYSJBE", column B should be "JBE" If the value in column A has "ICG????", column B should be "HPC" If the value in column A has "IL????", column B should be "RUP" If the value in column A has "SYSHPC08", column B should be "HPC"
What I tried was to record a macro while typing the formula in B1: ...
Im setting up a spreadsheet that does engineering calculations. Im using macros to run sizes from a standard schedule. It basically takes the values from one sheet (schedule) to another (calculation), then the result from the calculation sheet (Value only, not the link) is pasted back into the schedule. The macro seems very bulky and im sure that it can be made more efficient with a loop. here is a sample of the code from the macro;
I manually create a pivot table (and record my actions) the pivot table references all of the information in my data range (70k+ lines). When I run the recorded macro the new pivot table limits the data range to the first 65536 lines (the old limit)....
On column A, I simply do an A-Z sort that gives the expected result. So I recorded it as a macro. In column G is a code that corresponds with column A. When the marcro is executed Column A is sorted but the corresponding value in G stays where it is. Clicking the A-Z button works. But when that action is recorded as a macro I get the above quirck. Since VBA is not my beef, I don't really know what wrong.
I have csv file with tab delimited fields (see attached blacklist.csv). 3rd and 4th fields are in format dd/mm/yyyy hh24:mi:ss, some fields can be zero. I need to split data to columns and display datetime fields in format dd.mm.yyyy hh:mm:ss.
OK... open csv in Excel, select column A, press button "Split in columns", select tab as delimiter, choose date format (DMY) for 3rd and 4th field and press OK. Test is splitted into columns, now select columns C and D and select desired format "dd.mm.yyyy hh:mm:ss". Then I select columns A:E and set column widths to fit data in columns. This all is OK and without problems (see attached file Handmade.xlsx).
But now... Now I record all previous step into macro. There is macro text: [Code] ....
Now I copy macro text into clipboard and open blacklist.csv again. Insert button to list and bind it to new macro. Paste text of macro from clipboard. (See attached file blacklist_beforeClick.xlsm). Now click button Btn and voila... some dates remain in previous format, some dates seems to be in desired format, but day and month are swapped. Why are there differences when comparing data made by hand and data made by macro??? compare.jpg This is the same behavior in more computers, some use Czech version of Excel 2010, some use English version.
I have recorded a macro to sort a range of cell based on two values that is dependent on time in another cell. I now want the macro to run automatically when refreshing the workbook with F9, so as the time changes so will the sorting. Everything works fine except the sorting doesn't refresh when F9 is refreshed.
My recorded macro is:
VB: Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim X As Long, FillCT As Long For X = 1 To 4 If Cells(Rows.count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(0, X - 1) <> "" Then FillCT = FillCT + 1
I am working on a project where I am virtually almost finished except for a minor change with the pie chart. I am analyzing some data and recorded a macro to do this and also the pie chart for visualization. However, I do not like the color of the default pie chart colors and would like to customize it. How could I change this within the macro I have recorded?
I've recorded a Marco copying and pasting information from one cell to other cells and some of the copying functions paste to two cells. I just need this to loop through all information I'm copying from the the new cells.
when I try to calculate the worked days between two dates using the formula "Networkdays" in excel, the result just count the days from Monday to Friday.
Example:
If I want to calculate the workable days from 12/1/08 (Start_date in cell A1) to 1/14/09 (End_date in cell A2) by using the formula: =NETWORKDAYS(A1,A2)
the result will be 33 days, but due to fact that I also need to count Saturdays, the result that I need must be 39 days.
I have been given a macro recorded on a mac and it works fine with Mac Excel 2011. Unfortunately, I need to make it to work on a windows machine, but it comes up with an error message "macro unable to set width property of the window class. Run-time error 1004". When I press debug it takes me to the line .Width = 1456.
Below is the chunk of the code that becomes highlighted when pressing debug.
With ActiveWindow .Width = 1456 .Height = 795 End With
I have data in 2 different workbooks, and I need to transfer all data in 'Jx_ex1' to sheet1 in the 'template' workbook, and all data in 'Gr_ex1' to sheet2 in 'template' workbook. All data should be transferred to the same cell numbers, from A1 to Y5000. I actually have loads of workbooks to transfer to the template but if I have an example with the two then im sure I can work out how to modify it. All files will be in the same folder.
I have switched from an ageing Mac Powerbook, Excel 2004 for Mac, and an out-of-date version of Firefox to an IMac with Excel 2011 for Mac and Safari as a browser. The only reason why I mention this is because I don't know if it was easier to do this on an older platform (one of those bizzare situations where going forwards is actually a step backwards).
In short I like doing things with Sports data in Excel. Usually I would hit my favourite website for pulling sports data (which incidentally I don't know if this has changed as I've been too busy to do much of this kind of thing for about 4 months - or if it is just a different format on a newer machine/different browser);
[URL] ....
The link should be showing NFL results for this year so far (I like the site as it has a handy amount of other sports etc.).
I would usually then go edit/paste special - unicode text and then hit the paste options, use the text import wizard, go delimited, tabs - and usually everything would come in on a row and then I could do what I need to do with it (e.g. use Excel's text functions to get the data - taking spaces out for example - to where I want it to do other things).
The problem I seem to be having now is that when I do the above - things no longer seem to come in on the same row (which makes life difficult for doing things easily with the data). Once things end up on different rows it becomes a pain to do basic things.
In short is there a way round this (or do I need to find another source for my data with tables laid out in a more friendly way to "borrow" data)?
I recorded a function and got the message box "Invalid Outside Procedure" when I tried to run the macro. I don't understand what it means or how to prevent it.
I have a workbook where I have a button to add a sheet, this works fine except for a formula that the macro edits on every sheet so we can have a running total quantity for the project. The problems occurs if the user changes the name of the last sheet in the workbook, then adds a sheet then the formula gets a reference error. The sheets are named 1 , 2 ,3 and so on, but it is nice to be able to change tha name of the sheet to the date.
How to get an automatic macro to run from my first sheet (sheet 1 of 10).
However, on my first page, users must enter 36 numbers in exact order and then those numbers need to automatically be copied to start at A3 on my following 9 sheets.
Right now, it pulls a sheet from another workbook, and saves it to this workbook. It works great. My problem is that I want it to keep what it pulls in, and not change when the other workbook changes. The other workbook has a macro that clears its cells every morning, so new info can be entered.
I want the old info that the code below pulled over to stay the same, so that I can keep a running history of what was entered everyday. At the moment, if I run the clear cells macro in the other workbook, it also clears all in this workbook. What needs changed in the code to make it work right?
