View 4 RepliesI want to create a code that will allow my users to add in a loaction for a pull down menu. I have the pull downs and named ranges all set up. I just now need the code which will promp them message boxes for inputs as well as have the macro insert and paste in their inputs enlarging the named ranges.
Allsheets are password protected and the password is "techedit".
the first sheets name is: "DOR" and the seconds sheets name is :Menus (hidden)".
I need the first message box to ask the user "Name of Client?".
I then need the second message box to ask the user: "Name of Platform?".
And finally I need the thrid message box to ask users: "Well names on Platform?"
I then want the macro to go to the sheet named "Menus (hidden)" and insert the platform name (answer from question 2) followed by the names of the wells (answer from question 3), each well being on its own row directly below the platform name, into the named range called "alllocations". this should be inserted into the bottom of the range.
The macro then needs to expand the range of "alllocations" to include the newly inserted rows. It also needs to define a new range for the newly added well names. The name of this range should be the answer to question 2.
once that is done the macro should take the answer to question 1 and insert it into a named range of "clientnames", as well as change the range of "clientnames" to now include the newly added client name.
And finally take the location name and add it a range called "locations", it should also change the range Locations" to now include the newly added location.
I'm trying to do a pull down menu with three selections - green,yellow, and red dots? I set up the data validation and referred it to a list. That is under Data Validation -> Settings -> Allow: List; Source: a range of cells where I put 3 colored dots(graphics). Now in the pull down menu when I select the first choice, it just gives me a black dot. The second choice gives me the same black dot. And so does the 3rd choice gives me a black dot.
So, how do I carry the 3 colored dots over? Or it's not possible using the Data Validation approach? If not what is the best and easiest way to go about doing this....
When selecting from a list of text items in a pull down menu in a cell how can you link that change to other cells to effect a change in them. An example would be if the pull down menu was in cell A1 and as a result of the text selected to be shown in A1 resulted in a need for the text in C3 to be changed as well as the formula in cell D3 to be change which will result in a numeric answer in cell D3. Not all of the choices in cell A1 will require that the text and formula be change in cell C3 and D3.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIn excel, I have created a table containing macro pull-down menus and text boxes.
The question I have is this:
In the properties table for my pull-down menu, I have the “ListFillRange” filled with the correct range of cells containing the data that I wanted stored in it.
The problem/solution I am having/wanting is to have not just one selection present, but many (to show up in the text box directly below it) since there will be some data that have many sub-data that need to be visible for the person who will be testing whatever…
All in all, I would like to know if there is a code that I can write in the Visual Basic window or the macro “view code” window that will allow the text box below to be filled with the information that is clicked on from its corresponding pull-down menu. Is this possible?
See attached file - I would like to use the "Create Parts issue Report" Button to create worksheet titled "Parts Issue Report" based on the pulldown menu in cell B1 tab "Vehicle data" so each pulll down will generate a different "Parts Issue Report" when clicking the "Create Parts Issue Report" button. I think it needs to be a looping VBA to go thru the "Vehicle Data" rows and columns looking for the keywords "late" or past" as I only want a report created on that criteria. The output criteria I have label in the tab "Parts Issue Report" I can explain further if needed.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to create a fairly complicated spreadsheet (well its complicated for an excel noob like me!)
Im after creating a spreadsheet with approx 100 different worksheets.
On sheet 1, I am aiming to create a drop down menu (or list) with links to the other worksheets. However, when i select an item from this list or menu, i would like the relevent worksheet data to be displayed in the bottom half of Sheet 1. If that makes sense to you! (basically to save me scrolling through all the sheets to find the info I need)
I would also like to have sheet 2 excluded from this list, and on sheet two I would like a list of all my other sheets.
If i can explain it a bit better for you, i am trying to list assest at aprox 100 different locations. So if i had assests in Aberdeen, Altrincham, Anniesland, etc I would have the assets for each location on an individual worksheet with that location name. So all my sheets would be named after the location (ie sheet 3 renamed as Aberdeen, sheet 4 Altrincham, sheet 5 would be Anniesland etc)
On worksheet 2 i would like a list of all locations. (And this next part is what I anticpate as being the tricky bit). My list of locations is ever expanding, and it would be great to just add a new location to the bottom of the list on Sheet 2, and have excel create a new worksheet with that name, and also for that location to appear in my list on sheet 1!
Now, I have no idea how hard this is to do. Ive tried severl template site, the MS help doesnt really help me, and I'm at a bit of a dead end.
In the excel file is a VBA code that is combined with a button if someone click on the button a little menu shows with a multiple options of sheets that can be printed. Only the problem is when i hide the sheets the code doesn't see them anymore and the only I can print is the page where the button is placed.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI came across the following macro that generates a list of worksheets with check boxes to select the ones I want to print. I attached the macro to a button on my "Totals" worksheet. When I run the macro, it lets me pick the worksheets, but doesn't print anything unless "Totals" is one of the worksheets I selected in the dialog box. What is missing?
I also want to stop the screen flickering and have it go back to the "Totals" page when it's done since that's where the button is.
I need to place a value in cell B on sheet 2 of a workbook. The value I need is stored in C10 on all other worksheets in the same workbook. The name of each worksheet is stored in Column A of sheet 2 (Rows 3 through 404). How do I get the value from C10 on each worksheet into the corresponding row on Sheet 2?
I have Excel for Auditors and there is code on page 201 but it is the reverse of what I need. I need to get the value from the worksheets as opposed to moving a value to the corresponding worksheet.
Example:
Sheet 2
Column A Row 1 = Worksheet name
Column B Row 1 = Need Cell C10 value from worksheet name referenced in A
I have a bunch of different worksheets that I need to pull a single cell from (lets say A1). On my summary sheet (first sheet) I have a list of all the worksheet names. Is there a macro that can pull data by referencing their names in the summary sheet.
Example: Column A has a list of all the worksheet names in my workbook. I want to extract cell A1 from each worksheet based off the name in Column A and be put into Column B. Otherwise, you would have to go through each tab and link it (I am working with 100+ tabs).
Column A Column B

I just started playing with creating my own macros. I've written a macro to pull all the names of the worksheets in a workbook, now what I want to do is write a piece of code that will pull data from a cell in those worksheets.
So for instance I have all my worksheet names in cell A1 to A10, I want to pull the data from cell E1 from every worksheet in A1 to A10. Can someone help me with a sample code to work with. I'm still reading Power Progamming haven't gotten so far yet.
I need to be able to pull information from a "master database" into seperate worksheets. Here is my problem. When I use a vlookup and my identifer is say "office property" then the vlookup will only pull the first "office property" and not retrieve any of the remaining "office property" rows.
My query is;
I have 2 different worksheets having similar format (header rows/columns) but different data (values). I need to pull out these data based on their values, means if cell is blank leave that cell and move on, but if cell has some value then pull that value with its corresponding row & column headers to place into a simple table to further use it for PivotTable. The number of rows and columns are equal in both worksheets.
So basically, the proposed function will run a check on both worksheets within a specific range of cells for their values and if not blank, it will fetch that cell value along with its relevant row header and column header and place all these attributes into the destination worksheet.
Hope I am quite clear with my query. with the required function to ease my life?
I have on inventory sheet that has all the data in each cell 2612 to be exact! That changes month to month with deletions.
The format is: Sheet 2
A/B/
334702/UEMR88QX
334703/UEMR85QX
334704/UEMR81QX
334707/UEMR8JQX
The master worksheet has about 5000 items and the (A and B) data are both on it with other data ranging from (A-Y). My question is how do I have a cell look up data and return that it exists or doesn’t exist on the inventory sheet?
Master
A/B/C/D/E/
35/ 465/881676311350/311350/UEMR8ZTU

My other problem I need to take that months inventory list and have it look at the master list and return the system number from the master list (B) next to the matching inventory number (C). Allowing me to cross match inventory to master each month and save inventory worksheet each month.
I know I can copy the column and past is as a value so I won’t lose the numbers as the master changes but getting the data onto that months inventory has been a pain.
Attached is a master metrics deck, where data needs to be refreshed every week, from two different workbooks.
The catch is, the two parent workbooks would be new versions every week (data would be same format, and style within), but file name would change each week, for eg: for 1st workbook, 'XXX_Weekly_Week24.xlsx' to 'XXX_Weekly_Week25.xlsx' and so on.
for 2nd workbook, 'YYY_Weekly_Week24.xlsx' to 'YYY_Weekly_Week25.xlsx' and so on.
In the master metrics deck, a consolidated vew of some of data from workbook 1 and workbook 2 is presented for each week.
This master file would remain same, and only be refreshed each week (preferably with a button on its sheet "REFRESH!!")
Next, need to manually change cells C2:G2 each week to reflect week titles correctly.
For e.g.: week6 would show week 1 through week 5, but during week7, it needs to show week 2 to week 6. Only last five weeks of data any given time.
The first datarows of each set are conditionally formatted (they are compared with other rows in the set and need to reflect danger values, good values etc) (I have done that already).
Let's say I have a workbook with 7 worksheets named, for example, "Instruction", "Begin", "Worksheet 1", "Worksheet 2", "Worksheet 3", "End", and "Data". (in that order)
What I want to do is run a macro to go to whatever worksheet that is in between "Begin" and "End" and copy, for example, cells $C$1:$D$10; then paste as formula into worksheet "Data" starting from cell C1 and then down a list (i.e., copied cells from "Worksheet 1" get pasted as formula into "Data" cells C1:D10; then copied cells from "Worksheet 2" get pasted as formula into "Data" cells C11:D20, and so on and so forth).
But if I were to add more worksheets (e.g., "Recipe" and "ToDo") positioned in between "Begin" and "End" and run the macro again, it'll either 1) re-copy all the formulas from the included worksheets back into "Data" including the formulas from the newly added/placed worksheets or 2) it'll add the formulas from the newly added/placed worksheets and paste into "Data" at the end of the list.
Can create the macro to run based on the position of worksheet, and not based on the name of worksheet, since ultimately there will probably be over 10 worksheets between "Begin" and "End".
I have created a sub to add new controls to the "Cell" shortcut menu. Can I remove the standard "Cell" shortcut menu controls? if so how do you do it?

I have a workbook with multiple sheets. Is there a tool that creates a menu bar or code that I can add that would support navigation?
My goal is to have something with approximately 4 options (buttons?). They would link to 4 different sheets that serve as indexes within the workbook.
I know I can add a control like a button to a given sheet that would take the user to given sheet when clicked, but can I make the button 'float' above all the sheets, or add to a menu bar, or something? I just don't want to have to add the button to every sheet in the workbook.
I am looking for something simple/easy, and am not looking for anybody to do the work. I just have no idea on how to approach the problem.
I was messing around with some Macros, as an issue came up where clients were pasting over Data Validated cells (thus removing the validation). Somehow though, the feature where you can select a cell, then pull the active cell down through the column (and then can copy, fill series, etc)has become disabled. I deleted all the macros, and turned them off in the Trust Center, but when I click on a cell the box and plus sign still won't display for me to pull the cell down the column.

I have actually got the Window menu in the Main Menu Bar of excel deleted using below command.
Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls("Window").Delete
Now this is something which I dont even know if it can be done, but its something which I would use, a lot. When clicking on a button, like a normal button from the control toolbox, is it possible to open a menu from this? So I click on the button i made called "accounts" and this opens a menu next to it with different options.
View 5 Replies View Relatedmy worksheet menu bar is displaying the ' Chart' menu no matter what I do. Not only do I have no charts in the workbook, (verified this by: )
For Each ws In Worksheets
ws.Select
MsgBox ActiveSheet.ChartObjects.Count
Next ws
but adding worksheets, selecting various parts of a worksheet, creating a chart and deleting it, and everything else I've tried has no effect.
One interesting thing - the first chart I added (to test if it would 'unstick' itself upon deletion of the new chart) was named 'Chart 2', implying there was a chart1 that existed previously.... although I am fairly certain I never added a chart to this workbook at any point.
Also, the menu bar is working fine in other workbooks, and changes to chart and back to data like normal.
I have a column of numbers each have a 0. infront of them (example 0.2346
0.5698). I want to pull the number from the right until it hits the decimal sign. So for the two above the result would be 2346 and 5698
Suppose I delete a (unknown) number of items from the Worksheet Menu Bar. This can vary because of the fact that my excel sheet is being used by a different number of people, all with a different Worksheet Menu Bar configuration. Is there a way of counting how many Menu items are still left in the Worksheet Menu Bar?
So, suppose all that is left (after using the program) in the Worksheet Menu Bar are Excel, File, Tools, Help. How can the porgram find out that there are only 4 items in the menu?
I am taking an EXCEL(online) class and in my current assignment i am to create a 'list' for sorting and querying. However i cannot find the 'list' option, under my DATA option on the toolbar. I have tried all my toolbars and shortcuts but I am unable to find it anywhere.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook with two sheets. The idea behind the workbook is an Interview Guide to be used just before an Interview. For now my problem is this.
Sheet 2 "Competencies" is just data. It stores competencies with their associated definitions and questions.
Sheet 1 "Control Page" is the sheet where the questions will eventually go. The user (Interviewer) will input data on the first two pages which will include name of candidate, date of interview etc. but they will also select 5 Competencies from the already existing drop down menus on page two. From there as the selections are made I wish for a code to copy the corresponding definition on sheet 'Competencies" to cells lower down in sheet "Control page".
I don't see a place to upload a file as I have a sample of the sheet ready to go.
