I'm looking for code that will move the cursor after the "enter" key is pressed through specific cells/order listed in the code, which can be changed as required. Using the option/tools cursor movement affects all excel documents which we don't want - just the specific sheet we are working in.
View 5 RepliesI am wanting VBA language in a macro that will move the cursor a certain number of cells in a certain direction. For example, I want the cursor to move right one cell, no PARTICULAR cell, just right one cell. Is there something I can use?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI want to move the cursor in my spreadsheet from cell to cell in a particular order. I've tried the following code, but it only works when I change the value in the cell.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
Select Case Target.Address()
Case "$A$1"
Range("$F$5").Select
Case "$F$5"
Range("$B$12").Select
Case "$B$12"
Range("$A$6").Select
Case "$A$6"
Range("$A$1").Select
End Select
End Sub
I want the cursor movement to follow the same order even when I don't change the cell value, for example, when I repeatedly hit the "Enter" key without altering the existing cell value.
I am developing an invoice templet and would like to define the specific movement for the cursor from cell to cell. I searched the forum and found the following in another thread:
This routine should do what you want. You should set your options/preferences to " move selection after enter"....
I want to do a arrangement for a file like this " wherever cursor moves in excel that particular cell will highlight with color and once it goes to some other cell that last highlighted cell will come as a ordinary cell"
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've exhausted my search engine skills and I'm about 99.9% sure Excel is incapable. This message board has been great over the years of figuring out even the trickiest of problems, but is there any functionality in 2003 or the slight possibility that after a user inputs a number in a cell (no tab, no enter) that it will move to the next cell.
After reading about this, most people say it is not possible even with VBA or Macro, and I certainly believe it, but the whiny, and horrible department that I work for are curious if this is possible. So, is it? If this is the wrong area for this questions, I apologize, I was considering putting this in the Macro/VBA area, but I gave up in deciding where to post this.
I want to be able to enter a single digit figure into a cell and have the cursor move automatically to the next cell to the right. then enter a figure in there and have it do the same thing. is this possible and, if so, how?

A2,A5, C10 C15, D15, E50
Besides this the cursor should not move to any cell.
It must remain between the cells that I described above.
I have a sheet with 56 columns with locked columns every 6 or 7 columns.
The rest of the sheet is unlocked for data entry.
What I would like the cursor to do is when it reaches a locked column, drop to next row instead of moving to the next free cell in the row.
Data entry is from left to right first six columns starting at C8 to H8
Next is L8 To Q8 and so on for 56 columns
When cursor reaches H8 I want it to drop to C9 or whatever column I'm entering into Q8 to L9
I need a macro which will put "P" when the cursor will be moved by right arrow key in the range c19 to AG55 if the cells are blank suppose cursor is moved from c19 to c20 & if c20 is blank then "P" will come on, if c20 is not blank say "Z" is in c20,then at c20 "Z" will remain at c20 and the code will not put "P" at c20 then.

I think I am suppose to use ActiveCell.Offset(1,0), and ActiveCell.Offset(-4,1) for my 2 examples. But my question is what is the VBA code for: "do that when I press enter and I am in this column"?

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhat I want to know: Is is possible to have information from one spreadsheet move specific data to another spreadsheet in the same workbook?

What I want to do is have all the different types of tools and the information from the above line seperated into other spreadsheets. I do not want to sort this information and manually move it I want a formula that will move each applicable tool into that sub sheet.

Recording a macro hasn't done the trick as the code I have only copies and doesn't paste. I know I can edit the code to open Word but the problem is that when in Word, the data needs to go to very specific places, some of it goes in the header, most goes in the main body, I can't see how this could be done as there are no cell refs as in Excel!
is it possible to paste to say halfway in a sentence, in a macro?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI would like to change the mouse cursor when the pointer passes over (without clicking) some cells which have double-click-event script attached.
I know how to change the cursor with a custom one. The pb is for me to identifie that the pointer is over the cell so as to launch the cursor change macro (and reverse when going over another cell).
Excel does that, for ex, with commented cells but can VBA do it also?
I know that the shortcut for moving the cursor to cell A1 of an active sheet within a workbook is Ctrl + Home. However, I thought there was a shortcut (using just keystrokes) to do this for all the sheets within the workbook. Is there such a shortcut?

I can't figure out how to delete the attached files that are irrelevant and I can't figure out how to upload new ones. I also don't know how to word what I need to happen
I want the data from everything, starting from row 5 and going to row 100, and not include column B or E.
How do I grab just that data? I have different formulas in each document. This is for invoicing, so the columns with the $ numbers can't be changed and I haven't been able to figure out how to not overwrite them when importing another spreadsheet.
What I am trying to do is to automate a copy-and-paste situation for literally a few thousand items. I am creating .xml files for a scenery builder library for MS Flight Simulator, and unfortunately there isn't an application specifically for FS scenery that will import the data I have and export it into the format I need. In other words, I need to create a form in Excel into which I can automate the importation of data from text files (such as in the first example below) to populate fields (as in the second example), and later create a new text file from the compiled data.
This is an example of the format of the data I need to import:
