I had copied the file with a new name and changed the target column to 14 (Column N) and it did not work. I went back to the original file with column 10 and it does not work either.

View 2 Replies View RelatedPrivate Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Application.Intersect(Target, Me.Range("R1C1")) Is Nothing Then
'do something
End If

Now, that Private Sub works fine if you change the value of R1C1 manually or from another macro.
But if R1C1 is the cell linked to a list box, nothing will happen if you change its value by selecting different items in the list box.
I use Excel 2003. With a LOT of help from this board, I've written some macros for a workbook template that will be opened then saved with another name with an .xls extension. The problem is that the macros transfer data to and from another workbook template. Here's the code that's giving me problems.
Windows("BookA.xlt").Activate
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
ActiveWorkbook.Save
Range("A1").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False
Selection.Copy
Windows("BookB.xlt").Activate
How can I use the macro if I open BookA.xlt then change the name to BookZ.xls for my data entries? At the same time BookZ is open, I may use another instance of BookA.xlt and save that one as BookY.xls. What's the most feasible way to still use the macros?
I read about Hyperlinks in the August 2006 "OZGRID" Newsletters but found no answer.
Assume 2 workbooks - book1 and book2, both located in "c:" (root of drive C)
Now, In book1 I have declared an HL to book2 using CTRL+K and upon clicking in that cell the book2 is opened.
After MOVING(!) book1 to a new location (D:DATA) and clicking the HL - I get an Error "cannot open the specified file".
While book1 was still in root C: - I tried to force to c:ook2.xls by typing it in the HL address window but after saving, Excel deletes the "c:" and leaves "book2.xls" only – I think because both files were located I the same directory.
I am aware that my "problem" can be solved by using the function HYPERLINK – but I would like to learn (if possible) how to insert an HL using CTRL+K that will maintain the path although moving the file which contains the HL).
I have an the excel book with sheets that are password protected so that the users cannot delete rows or columns.
In each sheet I gave permissions for certain ranges that need to be filled out only to specific users that need to fill out those cells.
The users are located and managed in the Active Directory.
The point is that each user can only update his/her sheet within the Excel book.
It was working for a day or two and then all of a sudden without any changes all the permissions were gone and every user was able to edit every sheet.
When I use customize and assign a macro (to a button) I set the "Marco In" option to "This Workbook" then select a macro from the available list. If you close the Assign Macro dialog and open it again, notice how it appends the name of the file to the macro name. Later, in an automated process the xls filename is appended with a value and I think this is causing the problem because the appended data is static and thus no longer is in sync with the new (latest) filename. How do I assign macro's to either custom toolbar's or autoshapes so that the assignment is tolerant of file name changes? I tried to delete the appended data but it is appended automatically.
I am also curious why some of the macro's listed in the dialog include a filename and macro name delimited with an exclaimation mark and some are macro name only (with no delimiter).
Copying the target cell to target.offset(0,-3)
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to have some automation to my WS and what I want to do, is if a certain column (column 104) is changed, it will fill out that column with the data entered as long as the account is the same (column 5). Here is the code I tried, but realized very quickly, it puts me into a loop. This is being called by a change worksheet fuction
If Target.Column = 104 Then
If IsEmpty(Target) Then
Else
testacct = Cells(Target.Row, 5)
temptest = testacct
s_TempSwitch = Target.Value
Testoffset = 0
Do While temptest = testacct
temptest = Cells(Target.Row + Testoffset, 5)
Cells(Target.Row + Testoffset, 104).Value = s_TempSwitch
Testoffset = Testoffset + 1
Loop
End If

I want to create a chart that shows "Gap to Target. See attached Sample spreadsheet for more info.
Note how the yellow part of the chart is formulaic...is actually the chart...and the green bar over it is manually pasted. That green bar is supposed to be "result" and that yellow gap is supposed to represent the difference between Targeted sales and the actual Result.
How to actually build the green part into the chart? Every time I try, it just adds them together and doesn't show the gap.

In the past when I copy and paste a cell, the new cell contains the formula from the old cell, with relationships between other cells maintained.
Recently my excel stopped copying formulas and copies only cell values from the old cell. It now acts as it used to act if I did a Copy-Paste Special -Values operation.
If I do select Paste Special, it grays out the formulas option and only lets me cut and paste values.
look at the attached workbook for an example of what i am trying to acheive and if possible modify or add another macro
in d7 i need a formula that equates to =C7-J7 where the column 'J' is known only by the 'TargetRange'.
Formula = "=c7-" & ccc & "7"
but what is required to reference the 'ccc' (TargetRange) column?

View 8 Replies View Related- A database sheet called 'QAEQUIP' which contains information on the movements of pieces of equipment. This information in in order of Column A which is a movements reference number.
- A reporting sheet called 'Email sheet', which you put in a month and year and using macros it copy and pastes the relevant rows from the database and puts them in date order (e.g. put in October 2013 and it will show all of the equipment moves that happened in October 2013, and in date order).
What my end user would like, is to be able to add text to an extra column on the reporting page which gets fed into the database on the corresponding row. What would the best way to do this be? I was thinking VBA for each row (there aren't that many rows) that says if this cell is changed, copy and paste the cell into the corresponding row / column on 'QAEQUIP'.
I need VBA code for the following - I have a worksheet with seven colums of data (A to G) - I need to copy the first column (A) from the active worksheet then open master workbook called 'master' and paste the data in to column D - then save the 'master' as the name in cell Z1 of the 'master' workbook. Once this has been been completed I need to repeat the process but this time copying column (B) and so on.

I have a column that looks like this, beginning on C10:
Code:
File Name
2316-17-312A.xrdml
2316-17-312B.xrdml
2316-17-312C.xrdml
[Code].....
I want to copy the extension of each file to a new column (File Type). How might I go about this?
This is my basic setup, each piece of equipment will have more than one routine to be performed:
Equipment Type
Make
Model
Serial
Location
To Be Performed
Frequency
Last Performed
Performed By
Next Due Date
R1
[Code] ..........
I want to track changes on "Last Performed" and "Performed By" and, if changed, copy both values to a separate "log" sheet. In total, there could be up to 10 routines for each peice of equipment. That means I would need to track 20 columns for changes. I would like this check to be done on save because that ensures that the user is satisfied with their changes and keeps the log from being flooded. And lastly, it needs stored in the log sheet in a way that I can identify which piece of equipment it was for and which routine was done.
in excel where you can select a column and sort it from high to low, how can you get this to be done automaticly as the data changes?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have main worksheet (target a) that I am trying to populate data from target(worksheet) b. The data I am trying to get from target b changes every month,(declining balance) based on a new month. So how can I get financial data from different cell each month from "b" into same cell in "a"? (so "A" # would be overwritten in same cell based on new # from "B". I have tried VLookup but can't be doing something correct.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using a piece of track changes VBA code mentioned on this site, which among other things creates a new column that reports the number of any cell that has been changed (e.g., $K$32). What I would like to do is, next to that cell, report the title of the row in which that cell appears. In other words, if someone changes cell $K$32, for easier reference I'd like others to be able to see that this cell appears in a row titled "New Sales". I'll be happy to clarify with more specifics if need be.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a table of data (say Column1 to Column 5) with multiple rows.
Column 1 to 4 will have the lookup values in multiple rows and Column 5 data should be picked up using vlookup or other lookup function.
I managed to somehow bring all these lookup values in (Column 1 to 4) in a single column in another sheet. I am now trying to use some lookup or other functions to match this single column and pick column 5 data in original sheet. Result i am expecting is lookup value in first column and next to it column 5 value.
It is basically a lookup wherein lookup value is spread over multiple rows and columns and result column is fixed. I tried using vlookup, but lookup value column and column number had to change every time when i moved from column1 to 4.
What I am trying to do is when data is changed in a workbook, I would like to be able to have it automatically copy the changes to another workbook.

What I'm trying too do is open a file, make an exact copy and save it under a new file name.
My problem is in the date formula the day is not always the same. In the sample case it's 03 at other times the day will change.
is there a way too get this too work irregardles of what the day might be?
This is a sample of the data with which I am working. I know that a macro can do what I need, but I am only versed in Excel formulas and not that much programming. I need to be able to first sort the data by Column C ("Element Type"), then by Columns E, F, G ("Year", "Month", "Day"). Then, I need to be able to copy all rows that have the same "Element Type" and "Year" to a new file, using the same header from the original spreadsheet on each new spreadsheet - doing this multiple times until the end of the file is reached.
Ideally, the new files would have a strict naming convention: XXXXXX-ZZZZ (YYYY).xls, where the X's are the value of the "COOP Station ID" in Column A, the Z's are the "Element Type" from Column C, and the Y's are the "Year" from Column E. If this theoretical macro were run with the Sample Data file I provided, it should result in the creation of five new workbooks. Is there a way to write a macro to do this, or at least something similar
I want to import data with a web-querie. The data consists of numbers in a column (14 cells).
I want to poll the info in the table in the webquerie every 15 minutes to see if the info in the table is changed. Therefore I refresh the info every 15 minutes, and when the info is changed, than the data must be put in a new sheet in a column and the columntitle must be the date and time that the info is put into the column. Can this be done in vba? I suppose that to compare the info of the new poll with the info of the previous polling the previous info must be put in a "compare" table.

View 4 Replies View RelatedBelow is the current code I have for File Copy before the workbook closes. This file will be distributed all over and obviously will not have the same old path and new path locations as I have in my code also will not have the same file name.
