Error Message To Pop Up If Two Specific Cells

Apr 21, 2008

I am aware that you are able to create error messages in Excel by using the Data -> Validation tool, but this will not work in my case.

I am wanting an error message to pop up if two specific cells' figures in my spreadsheet do not match up. The only way the Validation Error Message will work, though, is if figures are typed DIRECTLY into the cells. This is not the case for me - I have formulae in my cells.
Apparently utilising a "VBA Macro" may work??

Error Message When Someone Paste Over Data Validation Cells

Oct 13, 2007

I have a spreadsheet which I have formatted with validation rules for each cell. I have protected the sheet so that only certain cells can have info entered.

I also have a second spreadsheet with a bunch of data. If I copy this data and Paste Special it into my specially formatted sheet (Values only), all of the data copies over regardless of my preset validation rules.

I would like error messages to pop up for every incorrect value though.

Error Message (Compile Error, Procedure Too Large)

May 20, 2009

I am looking for a more efficient way to write a macro (a sample from the macro is below). This is just the first part of the macro. I need to repeat these same steps (seen for row 5 below) for rows 5 to 50. My script worked until I hit row 35 and then I got the "compile error.." message. There must be a way to use "loop" to write this more efficiently, no?

Count Number Of Cells That Meet Specific Conditions - Error Messages

May 11, 2006

I have a spreadsheet which is linked to several other worksheets. I have managed to include formulas to count how many cells have numbers between 101 and 5000 by using this formula -

=sum((h2:h500>=101)*(h2:h500<=5000))

but now I want to count the number of cells in another worksheet that are equal to or less than zero. When I use the same formula as above it counts all the blank cells. I have tried using a countblank formula and then deducting this from the result, but unless the other worksheet is open the countblank formula does not work.

Error Message "run Time Error '424' Object Required"

Aug 17, 2008

For some reason my form won't open when the workbook is opened. I get an error message "run time error '424' object required" (which happens when I have Form1.show in the BOTH workbook_open event and the userform_initialize event (oops)). When I removed form1.show from the userform_initialize I don't get an error but I also get no form. I recall having this issue before but I can't recall how to fix it.

Can I call the userform_initialize event from the workbook open event to get around this successfully and properly?

Error Message #DIV/0!

Nov 2, 2007

I do hit the SCE (Shift-CTRL-Enter) keys. The formula does work in one workbook, but not the other. The only difference between the two workbooks is this formula has a larger range.

New Formula- doesn't work (ERROR- #DIV/0!)
{=AVERAGE(IF(Sheet1!A3:A1094="MONDAY",Sheet1!E3:E1094))}

Old Formula- works
{=AVERAGE(IF(B6:B451="MONDAY",E6:E451))}

Error Message If Value Not Whole Number

Feb 3, 2014

I get spreadsheets sent to me with hours and minutes in decimal format. Frequently a quarter of an hour or three quarters of an hour are posted as 0.15 or 0.45 instead of 0.25 and 0.75. Other odd fractions can also appear.

I want an error message if the value when divisible by 0.25 is not a whole number.

I need an error message to pop up if 3 cells contain the same data

The range of these cells would be G19 to G49

Ideally the error message would say "Rules Broken"

Error Message Pop Up Alert

Jun 11, 2009

I wanted to make a pop up alert message appear whenever the formula in a cell gives a particular output.

Before posting this i tried looking for similar posts before, but the ones found do not solve my problem. There it asks me to write the following code in VBA,

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim MyRange As String

MyRange = "A1"

If Me.Range(MyRange).Value = "Have Meeting" Then
MsgBox "Have Meeting"
End If
End Sub

But my doing so, I can not use any formula in the cell A1 or any other cell i give reference as MyRange. I will always have to physically type "Have Meeting" or any other word assigned in the above.

Box Comparison With Error Message

Aug 24, 2009

I am writing some code to do a comparison between two cells X2 or AB2 with an X which checks to:
1. make sure one of the two are filled, or
2. both are not filled.
Below is an extract of the spreadsheet I am working on. I need to check to make sure one of the boxes is checked. If both are empty or both filled with an ("X"), I want a message box to tell me to correct the error and stop the macro from continuing. If only one is marked with an ("X"), I want the macro to continue but don't know how.

Message Box Instead Of Run Time Error

Jun 7, 2006

I have a vba code that I wrote out to search for a file and update data on a spreadsheet with the new file... however I've come to a point where I'm not sure of what code to use. If I search for a file that is not there I get a runtime error and of course it ask me to end or debug. What I would like for it to do instead is search for the file and if it is not there... display a message box stating that the file searched for is not found and automatically closes the workbook after OK is pressed.

Here is the code for those who may need it....

User Log Error Message

Jun 10, 2006

I've got the below code which I use to log users who opens my spreadsheet. It's a Event so runs when the spreadsheet is open with macro enabled. The spreadsheet is on a shared drive which has the prefix "K". Most users it works find but one user gets a error Message "Path or Drive" error. I got around it by adding "on error" but how do you overcome issues with drive prefixs and the drive address e.g "K" vs "\CRD2000"

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Open ThisWorkbook.Path & "usage.log" For Append As #1
Print #1, Application.UserName, Now
Close #1

Intercepting The Error Message

Jun 21, 2006

I have developed a program in which the user will only see the userforms (and to an certain extent not even be aware of excel doing most of the work).

i am looking for code that will intercept an error message should something go wrong in my vb code. Currently when an error occurs, it pops back to VB and gives the error message. I want it to rather give a popoup message asking the user to contact me.

When Using Custom Views - Get Error Message

Aug 13, 2014

I have created a report with 22 sheets as different pages to be included or hidden depending upon the type of report needed. I had found several sources saying to use the Custom Views function. So for example I will unhide all the sheets and add as a Custom View "All Sheets" and then whittle it down to the 5 I might need for B type inspections and add that view as B Inspection. But when I try and toggle between them I'm getting an error message that says "Some view settings could not be applied" - and thew saved view I was looking for is not the same sheetwise.

Circular Reference Error Message

Mar 2, 2014

This formula might be the problem for the error message.

SUMPRODUCT((MOD(COLUMN(C3:CO3)-COLUMN(OFFSET(C3:CO3,,,1,1)),3)=0)*C3:CO3)

I have other cells with the same formula (but with different range i.e. D3:CP3), yet it doesn't have circular reference error message.

Create Error Message When Two Columns In The Same Row Are Used?

Mar 26, 2014

I'm trying to create a situation where the user would get an error message when they tried to enter numbers in two specific columns in the same row. That is, in row C they can only enter a number ( 1 or 2) into C5, C6 or C7. If they enter a number into two of these cells, I want an error to appear. They would have to stop and correct the error.

I've tried two scenarios with no luck:

1. I've data validation where I did SUM(C5:C7) and hid the answer in C8. I then tried to get a data validation to display an error code when C8 exceed 2. This didn't work.
