I am trying to figure out how to create a "User-Defined" enumerated type typically used in other languages (other than VBA).
for example in Java a typical enum type is declared like this:
enum Season { WINTER, SPRING, SUMMER, FALL }
This gives the benefit of writing "readable" code.
(back to vb)
If Season SUMMER then
call wear_a_sweater
end if
Trying to convert an Excel 2003 macro to work in Excel 2007.
The problem line is
Dim MyDataObject As DataObject
I suspect the problem is a Missing Reference, but I cannot figure out which one. I have the same ones (in 2007) as 2003 except for one which is not showing
Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library
Is this the one it needs? It is called something else in 2007?
The ones I do have ticked are
Visual Basic For Applications
Microsoft Excel 12.0 Object Library
OLE Automation
Microsoft Office 12.0 Object Library
Microsoft ADO Ext. 2.8 for DDL and Security
Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library
Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.8 Library
Microsoft Scripting Runtime
Microsoft XML v2.6
I am using Microsoft Excel 2010 and Microsoft VBA 7.0 on my system. I would like to eventually create a PowerPoint and insert charts generated in the Excel workbook. In the meantime, I cannot get the basic PowerPoint created.
The line in red is highlighted blue when the compile error "User-defined type not defined" message box appears.
Public Sub TryAgain() Dim myPowerPoint As PowerPoint.Application
'
' do nothing for now
'End Sub
I have set the references such that Microsoft Project 14.0 Object Library is indeed checked. The Excel file only contains this code in a module. All sheets are blank. Nothing else is written yet.
I had a working subroutine which I moved to another workbook (rather than linking to it and having both workbooks open at the same time).
Now I get "user-defined type not defined" when it runs. Here is the beginning of the
Global oApp As Object
Sub UpdateForecasts()
Call Update1
Call Update2
End Sub
Sub Update1()
Dim dPath As String
Dim dDest As String
Dim dCondition As String
Dim dName As String
Dim FSO As New FileSystemObject
Base 64 Encoding.
Dim objXML As MSXML2.DOMDocument
Dim objNode As MSXML2.IXMLDOMElement
Are causing the User Defined error, but the same workbook is OK in XP and Win 7.

Says you need a reference to Microsoft XML, v2.6 (or later) and the Win8/2010 workbook does have one for Microsoft XML, v6.0

When I try to complile my VBA project, I get the following error "User-defined type not defined" but the compiler doesn't point to any line.
I remember what I did last was to rename a form and a Module, but I replaced their old names in all my code with the new ones ... Does this have anything to do with the error I am getting ?
Which I am trying to modify to fit my needs:
Code:

Dim IE As InternetExplorer
Dim doc As HTMLDocument
Dim LoginForm As HTMLFormElement

I get the error User Defined type not defined on line:
Code:
Dim IE As InternetExplorer
Do I need to use references? Is there a quick fix for this?
I have code that works for a particular website but I am having trouble making it work for others. This code seems more flexible than the other code:

My end goal is to log on to several websites and pull data out of tables on the websites back into excel so that I can have a one stop shop instead of logging into many websites manually.
This code works fine when I use it, but not when a co-worker uses it on his PC. The code and VBA references are the same. He gets the "User-Defined Type not defined" error. I'm wondering if there is an Outlook setting that may blow this up.
the code was working on his PC and then it stopped though no changes were made to the code. That's why I think it may be blocked by an Outlook setting.

I have a public variable called myctafund, of type ctafund:
Public myctafund As ctafund
My problem is the following: When I need to update myctafund, I first want to clean it entirely before putting new values, so as to be sure older values do not stick around (I do not necessarily overwrite all the values of the mycta type).I can't figure out a way of clearing the entire myctafund variable in one shot. I tried:
myctafund=empty
but I am granted by a nasty excel error. I'd like to avoid writing 200 lines of code just to clean the entire variable.
I can create my own new collection which is handy as it accepts uniques only and i can access using its "key"
But can i have a collection of "user defined data types"
I have an array with structure, i.e. User Defined Type. Assume the user defined type has two elements: Element1 and Element2 and array name is Array.
So the definition is:
Dim Array(1 To 10) As UserType
and access to elements is
Array(5).Element1
The problem is that I need to pass the whole set of Element1 or Element2 to a function. Should it have been two separate arrays, it would not be a problem. But because of the user defined structure I have no idea how to pass a single element.
I hope there is another solution rather than to use loops. I have many arrays like this with complex structures. I simply can not replicate all of them.
I am trying to create a function using the functions of IF and "And", but for any reason I don't know how to add the Add function
My function written in excel will looks like =IF(AND(A80="00",C80<>"8300"),"yes","no")
LOB Cost Center
00 1000
00 2000
00 8300
01 5000
02 8300
Function Allocation(LOB As Integer, CostCenter as Integer) As String
If LOB = 00 And CostCenter <> 8300 Then
Allocation = "Yes"
ElseIf LOB = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Then
Allocation = "No"
End If
End Function
I have a mental block when it comes to writing functions.
In a cell I have the Post Code followed by a "#" sign (no speech marks) and sometimes more text
e.g. FY6 8JF#ABCD (where the Post Code is FY6 8JF)
The "#" sign always indicates where the Post Code ends, i.e. I want to return all the characters to the left of the "#" sign.
In a spreadsheet I would accomplish this with "=LEFT(AA14,FIND("#",AA14,1)-1)"
where the string of interest is in cell "AA14"
How do I write a UDF to do this?
I want to create a user defined function to search a column of data for a part number.
If it exists I want to have a the UDf returna "fail" otherwise "pass"
Here is the code I was trying to use
Function firstpass(SN As String) As String
ws = Worksheets("Defects")
c = ""
With ws.Range("a1:a9999")
Set c = .Find(SN, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
End With
If Not c Is Nothing Then
firstpass = "Pass"
Else
firstpass = "Fail"
End If
End Function
This function only returns a "#value" and I don't quite know how to troubleshoot it.
I've made a macro that inserts an entire new row above a specified cell, then updates each column of that row using offset.value and various constants and inputbox variables. Works great so far, unless I try to apply a validation rule to one of the cells.
The code I'm using to add the validation works okay when referring to a specific cell by reference e.g:
With Range("A1").Validation
etc...
However, when I change it thusly:
With Sheet2.Range("LastRow").Offset(-1, 5).Validation
.Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Operator:= _
xlBetween, Formula1:="=Departments"
.IgnoreBlank = True
.InCellDropdown = True
End With
It doesn't like that one bit.
This is part of a private Sub attached to a button in the same sheet. I've had a scan through the archives looking for validation threads, but couldn't find anything that refers to problems with offsets (if indeed that is the problem here).
I'm having trouble getting a User Defined formula to work. I received an email containing a User Defined formula for SUMCOLOR and COUNTCOLOR. The first sums all the values in like-colored cells, and the second counts all the cells of like-color in a given range. The VB code for the module is as follows:

- which are the differences between a User Defined Function and a Macro?
- also User Defined Function is written in Visual Basic?
Can you create user-defined events in excel? I ask because the worksheet_change event does not capture pastes or undo/redo.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have created a custom add-in with custom functions and am trying to make it user friendly for other users. By running the following macro I can add functions to different categories, but I was wondering if there was a way to do this automatically so that anyone that adds this add-in will have the functions show up in the proper category without having to manually run this macro.
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy goal is a macro that exports a .txt file where the user selects desired rows (strains, not necessarily contiguous), header columns (collection data), and a single sequence column. The output format (called fasta) is:

where each new ">" is a new strain (row). My code so far gets caught up in the string assignments in the for loops:
My question is about creating User-Defined Data Types. Is there ANY way possible i can create a User-Defined Data Type that declares a variable of another User-Defined Data Type instead of the Pre-Defined User Types like String, Integer, etc?
The following explains my problem in more detail.
I know to create a User-Defined Data Type at the top of the module before any procedures. Like this:

The above request WILL be a good solution, but if there is an advanced solution to this for eg., something like a list box with buttons, for instance: click on 'Articles' and it populates 'a,' 'an,' & 'the, click on 'Prepositions' and it populates all the pre-fed prepositions, etc. that would be PERFECT!

I found out that using Enum one can have a dropdown box to choose from when inserting a parameter in a function.
But how can I have the same user-defined constant in more then one Enum? It works with standard VBA variables like vbEmpty, so why not with self made constants?
I tried this which gives the error: Ambiguous name detected
Code:
Private Const vbTest = 99 ''' = Ambiguous name detected !!!
Enum eTest1 '''gives 3 choices
vbEmpty ''' = standard VBA 1
vbLong ''' = standard VBA 3
vbTest ''' not in VBA, so I would assign 99 to it
End Enum

I am stepping through a sub in module one that for some reason keeps jumping to a user defined function in another module. I've checked and and the function isn't being called.

I need to create a business days calendar consisnting of two columns start_date and end_date.

Every end_date must fall on a business day, or the first following business day if it is falls on a WE. Assume I know all holidays for the next 10 years.
