I have been working on creating a dependent drop down list and have been able to create lists (Insert > Name > Define) and it has worked for all the lists except 2. It will not allow me to create a list titled C or R. I get a pop up stating "that is not a valid name". Why is that?
I have a list for each letter of the alphabet except the letters C & R. No matter what I seem to do I just keep getting the pop up window stating that it is not a valid name. I also tried closing the workbook and restarting the pc and then trying but the same thing keeps happening.Thanks!
Below are states which are located in column "I". I need a VB code that will cut any entire row that has any of the following states below into a new collective workbook - if any of the states don't exsist then to just ignore and move on. They all have to be in the same workbook in the end.
If NONE of these states exsist, please just insert a msgbox ("No states to move")
(I basically need to divide West coast and East coast by removing all WC states and put them in their own workbook)
I have a formula in the Name Define part of excel in workbook that refers to another workbook. =IF(COUNTIF([DaysWorking.xls]Sunday!$A:$A,'2009'!I1)>0,1,"")
The DaysWorking.xls workbook is a data workbook, users may change the data and after they are done, they may exit the program but not save it. The DaysWorking.xls workbook should always revert back to the original form. I've put a read only property on it, but the problem lies when the user saves the file under Save/As function. Excel then updates the link to whatever the user saves the file as. Is there a way to make sure that the formula never get's changed?
I'm trying to make a listbox that contains a list of items from ranges that differ depending on the contents of one cell.
In other words, say the contents of the cell in question is 'flower' the listbox will be populated with the range of cells containing flower names; if the cell was 'shrubs' the same listbox would be populated with the range of cells containing shrub names.
I've scoured the site, but can't find an exact query that matches mine (though I've probably missed a bunch of them).
I have a code that opens a workbook and then calls a function on the workbook. What I want to do is reference that workbook so that when the function ends I can make that the active workbook again.
This is my code
Code: Sub BarcLinkedCleanSort() Dim fNameAndPath As Variant, wb As Workbook Dim ws As Worksheet
I'm trying to create a drop down list that will define the name of the cell so I can reference it in formulas or codings to change the format of various cells defined by a specific name.
I'm not even sure if I can have multiple cells defined as the same name
I'll be inputting data into cells, and I want the color of the cell to change depending if the data is one of these criteria: 'In Service', 'In Transit', or 'Must Purchase'. I can't just make separate criteria columns to list all the data, because the data is already placed in a specific order. So I want whoever is viewing this to know which entry fits which criteria from the color of the cell.
The only thing I could think of is inputting the cell data value, and a drop down menu to define the cell name. I'll input a conditional formatting function to format based on the defined name criteria.
I had a worksheet with Employee name,Place,State & Amount Columns. I want the data in the MasterSheet to be copied into Individual Sheets based on Place & State. All The rows should be copied into one sheet based on the State of the respective Place one after the other. For Excel to Know which Place belongs to which State I had created the sheet match List.
The Data is dynamic.Each Day the data may grow or shrink depending upon the transactions at that place.I had shown how the data should be copied into individual sheets.
I currently have an issue with some of my user defined functions. These functions work perfect for everyone here at my company in the USA / UK. The problem happens when we send it to our client who is overseas.
The client opens up the file and all they see are #VALUE! errors where our UDF's are being used. But when they send it back to us the file works properly.
I have currently added VBA code so that when the workbook and the user enables macro's the file will do an application.calculatefull. This still does not seem to work for them.
The excel version that I am running currently on my PC is MS Office 2003 Pro (11.8146.8132) SP2. The version that the client is running on their PC is MS Office 2003 Pro (11.8105.8107) SP2. Could this problem occur because of updates that they have not yet installed? I have been working on this problem for about a week now and have not come up with a solution.
I am trying to figure out the excel formula I need for a project. Basically i am try to do a lookup for Country/State. What I have is a column called Country and once called State on the first worksheet on the second I need to do the calculations that will allow user to select Country and the when they click on the State it shows only the related States based on the Country which are loaded on the second worksheet.
(EG.
COUNTRY = United States - will return/diplay in dropdown
I'm trying to make a little dynamic map of the United States where each of the states change color based on a particular cell value that corresponds to that state. I've got the map of the United States in Excel and ungrouped so I have a collection of seperate shapes - one for each of the lower 48 States. I've named each shape (state) by it's postal abbreviation: TX, CA, NY, etc.
Now I'm trying to write a macro that will COLOR the state according to a numeric value in the cell next to the cell containing the State abbreviation. These are transit days to this state that I will calculate in another location. Like this:
TX = 3 days CA = 1 days OR = 1 days NY = 7 days KS = 3 days FL = 7 days
I want to sort all of the "column2" by alphabetical order. The order will be first by state and then by city. For example the first box the column2 order should be (Fountain Hills, AZ) properties first followed by (Mesa, AZ) properties second followed by (Peoria, AZ) etc.... ending with (Flower Mound, TX) last.
The issue that I'm having is that when I create a custom sort the comma after the city indicates a new value being AZ. For example my custom sorting looks like this: Fountain Hills, AZ, Mesa, AZ, Peoria, AZ. This is limiting my ability to sort the files as is with city, state. I solved this issue by removing the commas after all the cities. This worked but was time consuming. Is there a faster way? The workbook is below.
I am trying to insert custom formatting into a cell so when I enter a set of 9 numbers for phone numbers in the U.S. and 14 numbers for international phone numbers, it will automatically display it in the correct format. Reason for the 0's on the international is because country codes often start with a 0, so I need to ensure it isn't removed from the number.
I'm trying to get a VBA macro put together that would delete all the rows, throughout every sheet, and shift up wherever the cell in column A = "Delete Row" in a workbook I've made. In the below copy of the workbook you can see that a lot of the information from all the tables is linked to the topmost table on the 'Mix Detail Sheet'.
If the the Cell in column A is blank on that first table, its corresponding cells in tables throughout the workbook displays the words "Delete Row". I need the macro to delete the rows and shift everything up where this occurs.
Ideally I'd also like the macro to then delete the rows in that first table where the column A cells are blank.
column I row 11 has a functional argument that simply states to display the output as .843 I need to edit it to .844 and I cannot seem to find out where or howto edit it.
There are others like this that I need to do too so I need to learn how to do it. Not just have someone do it for me.
ALSO as you can see this sheet displays #N/A all over the filled in cells... I would like them to be blank until I enter some pertinent info... I tried this is cell m7 BUT as you can see in m12 it goes back to the N/A
I have written this macro to convert into a csv file to run for all defined named ranges in the activesheet. It run jst perfect when I hit SAVE button and it creates that many different CSV files for each named range.
However I am trying to use same macro in the another file and the problem I am facing is there a lot more named ranges and I want to run the macro for only selected NAMED RANGE. In this case 2 Named Range / 24 Named range.
What part of code do I need to change and to what to make it work for just 2 named ranges ?
I created an add-in for Excel 2003 by following your site's instructions, substituting my own subroutine's name for "MyGreatMacro" (for the purposes on testing all it does is spit out a MsgBox). I then put the resulting xla file on a network drive and went through the standard process for installing an Addin :
Tools -> Addins -> Browse for the file and hit ok, check it off, etc
This works perfectly fine when i try to install on my own machine, but when I try on other user's machines I get an error message stating that the xla file is not a valid Addin. Excel's error message in this case is about as unhelpful as they come.
I try to add a named range and it says name not valid!! I'm putting in jan13. Why would this not be valid. There are no other named ranges in the workbook
I have a macro that creates a new sheet and names it based off a cell value (date, MM-DD-YY), and copies a 'Template' sheet to it, values only. Every so often, two sheets need to be made with the same date. I need the right direction in creating an addition to the below code that will add an A, B, or C at the end of the sheet name if the name is already taken?
I've 1000's of website URLs which I need to open one at a time, and check if the page contains message such as 'Product not found' or 'Oops...' or 'Page not found' or 'Error'
i have a customer (im a computer tech, but excel is not my specialty) that has a weird problem with her most important file. She meant well, but tried to back up a 2.6 MB file to a floppy disk, and after it told her the disk was full, she was unable to open the file again in excel. (File Format Is Not Valid) It will, however, open in word, with the data there. Its in an unusable format, as there were 12 different worksheets (one for every month), all on the one page of MS Word. Better than nothing, but still will take weeks to reenter properly. I searched for a repair utility and had one that seemed to work, but only put a "0" in column A row 8. A far cry from what we are looking for. Ive also run a disk recovery program in the hopes of finding an older version of the file, but came up empty.
I have a textbox (on a userform) that populates into a spreadsheet. the way I have it set up the user enters a time, but omits the semicolon, and a macro adjusts the time to show the semi colon in the spreadsheet, that is working great. But what I would like to do is to use a textbox change event to force the user to enter a valid time using a 24 hour clock. I have the textbox set to accept numbers from 0 to 2400, using the textbox change event but this allows the user to enter an invalid time such as "1575" basically anthing above 59 for the last 2 digits would be invalid.
I am trying to define some variables as byte, but I want 0 to be a valid value rather than null. When there is no data, that is when I would like for the variable to be null.
Is there a way to accomplish this? In addition, I use the same variables in a loop, which are reset at the beginning of the loop. Is there a way to reset a variable without giving it a value (like 0)?
I am using the GetSaveAsFilename function to save a file. I have the filefilter as "Excel Add-In (*.xla),xla", however when I save a file this way as an add-in, then try to load that add-in, I get the following error message.
'C:Documents and SettingsUser1DesktopBook3.xla' is not a valid add-in.
Does this mean that the GetSaveAsFilename is not capable of saving a valid xla file?
Website has a URL where the last element is a number within a range (e.g. 1000 - 4000).
But the numbers are not sequential (e.g there are 100 pages, first URL ends "1001", last one ends "6000".
As shown below I set the code to cycle through every possible number:
VB:
For i = 1001 To 6000 With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _ "URL;http://(whatever)" & i _ , Destination:="(Whichever cell the output starts in)"
Not the most constructive use of the national grid.
Is there a VBA that can check whether the URL "number" is genuine before doing anything else - and move straight to the next "i" if it doesn't exist?
