Have A Msgbox Without Waiting For User To Click

Nov 6, 2007

I have a macro with about 20 Subs and before each one I wanted a msgbox saying "macro is now running sub 1." which then changes to "Macro is now running sub 2", all while the user is sat there with his feet on the desk twiddling his thumbs.

Macros Waiting For User Input

Aug 11, 2009

I am trying to put together a macro that waits for the user to input data and then continue running the macro.

All user input is for one cell and I am looking at more of an entire sheet worth of data.

Here is the scenerio.

I have one tab that pulls data out of a sharepoint list. I then have another tab that I dump data from another database into and then use vlookups to compare the data.

The problem is I need it update the sharepoint list. Then wait for the user to dump in the new data from the external database before continuing the macro and working with the vlookups.

Currently I am working this by running a few different macros to do it all, but I would like to condense it down to running one macro.

Using MsgBox Without User Interaction

Nov 25, 2009

Is there a way to use MsgBox without any necessary user interaction to continue on with the macro? For example, I want to occasionally display a MsgBox for a few seconds containing relevant data and then have it disappear and the macro continue on without the user having to click the OK button, etc.

MsgBox To Pop-up To The User With 3 Options

Oct 20, 2009

I want a MsgBox to pop-up to the user with 3 Options.

Option A, Option B, Cancel.

If user presses Option A GOTO 1:
If user Pressed Option B GOTO 2:

And if Cancel End Sub, not sure if this is doable, please let me know. Basically I am writing this VBA to archive files from the network drive and there are two different kinds and depending on what Option the user chooses, the Destination variable needs to take on a different value, that's why I need this, unless there is a better way to do this.

Basically so far my code is like this:

Sub Archive_GTP()

Dim Nlog As Worksheet
Dim DestinationFile, SourceFile
Dim lr As Long
Dim c As Range

Set Nlog = Worksheets("Log")..........................

MsgBox Open That States This File Is Confidential And You Click 'I Agree' Button, Or A Cancel "I Decline

May 19, 2007

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
MsgBox "Insert Text Here" , vbOKCancel
End Sub

What I would like to do is have a MsgBox open up that states this file is confidential and you click 'I Agree' button, or a cancel "I Decline"

I do not want the spreadsheet to be visible until they click on 'I Agree' button, and then if they click cancel, the Excel closes.

This is not a huge security issue, just a reminder for the Top Brass not to email out the file. This is for looks and show only

Lock Cell But Allow User To Click On It?

I have a series of consecutive cells that I have a number entered in it. AP50 through AP 74 are numbered 1 through 25. I don't want the user to be able to change the number but I do want them to be able to click in the cell as this makes other functions happen.

Double Click To Enter User ID

Aug 20, 2007

i have some code that allows my users to enter their user ID on double clicking. The worksheet code below shows how on double clicking into Colum 3 (If Target.Column = 3 Then) then the user ID will appear. Q: How do i get the code to work in Columns 3, 5 and 7 but not those inbetween?! I tried using "or" but it allowed the ID to be entered into all columns! i.e. 3,4,5,6 and 7 which is not what I require. In short I need the ID to appear on double clik into every other column.

Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)

Dim user As String
'This refers to the function ReturnUserName, which takes the name from the NT environment

If Target.Column = 3 Then
Target = ReturnUserName
Cancel = True
End If

End Sub

Slowing Down And Waiting For Data Results Using VBA?

Aug 21, 2013

I have 2 sheets in a workbook

My VBA code gets data from a cell in sheet1 Then it paste that into a cell on sheet2 sheet 2 processes some data and produces a single cell result based on the pasted data Then that single cell result is pasted back into sheet1

Here is the problem. Sheet 2 takes a up to one second to produce the final result because it has to fetch some data from the web My code is pasting data back to sheet1 before sheet2 has had time to produce a final result

How can I make sure the data is finished on sheet2 before my code paste the result back to sheet1?

The variable MacdBlack is the being pasted back to sheet1 before sheet2 has had time to update it This is because sheet2 has to get data from the web which is slow

VB:
Sub SheetTest()
Dim x As Integer
Dim StartCell1 As String

[Code]....

User Inputs Information Into Userform When Click Enter?

Mar 21, 2012

Say a user inputs information into the user form, when they click enter, it enters all the data on the next available line in a workbook.

Is is possible for the user to click a cell on a previously entered row, and have the userform populate with the existing information?

example.
say the user has to fill out 3 separate areas. 1, 2, 3. However the user only has data for 1 and 2. They go ahead and enter the infromation for 1 and 2 and click submit to transfer to sheet. Now later he gets information for area 3, can the row the information that he previously entered, lets say column 1, row 1, and it reopens the userform with the information for 1 and 2 prefilled from what he entered previously?

Keeping Cells Waiting For New Data To Not Be Read As Zero Or Be Ranked

Aug 7, 2013

I am trying to rank a series of data. I have most of this figured out. However, the data that is being ranked is based on a sum of a range of cells. I have lines that are waiting for new information to be put in related to the values to be ranked and the value is reference a sum of blank cells currently since there is no data there and it is showing up as zero and therefore being ranked number 1 in my list. I basically want the ranking to rank the values 1-11 while putting all values that are zero to be put at the bottom of the ranking. Any way to do this without macros. I have been using the VLOOKUP and RANK functions for my ranking purposes.

I have tried using an if statement that made the cells #N/A if they were zero, however they remained at the top of my ranking.

Quick "msgbox" Question (Visual Basic) / Allow User To Respond With Text ? []

May 27, 2008

I have searched the 'net and read MSDN msgbox but I cant find what I am looking for. Maybe msgbox is not the correct function to be focusing on?? I want a message box to ask a question, and the answer is dumped into a variable, much like you can do with yes/no/cancel, but (much like a pop-up textbox) I want to be able to respond with text in a textbox. [This of course is part of my Excel spreadsheet]
(I think with C++ it was something like "msgbox = ?$-" or something like that, but I don't know what to look for with VB.)

Pause Macro And Wait For User To Click On Cell To Resume Macro?

Jan 15, 2014

I have a macro where I manually select a cell then the macro kicks in to copy and paste the contents into the Find function. From there it goes to another work sheet, clicks on a cell in column one and searches for matching cell contents. Then If false it manually goes back to the original worksheet/cell and then I input a N in the left adjacent cell. If true I enter a Y. Right now I can only run this for the specific cell the macro was recorded for. I would like to expand this.

What I would like to do create a loop in the macro that waits for my cell choice input then continues with the with the Find function. If false the macro should just loop back to the original worksheet/cell and wait for input, ie the next cell selected. However, if true a worksheet/cell is selected, a Y is input and it loops back to the original cell and waits for input.

Prevent The User From Saving The Data Input From The User Form If Any Of Those Three Fields Is Left Blank

Feb 9, 2010

I have a user form that has a combo box "City" two text boxes one called "Flight" and the other "Date". What I'm trying to do is to prevent the user from saving the data input from the user form if any of those three fields is left blank. The code that I have so far checks all of the required fields, if any are left blank a message notifys which field(s) is left blank and return the focus back to that field. But the rest of code also fires.

What I really need is either to stop the code if any fields are blank and return the focus back to the blank field, the user completes the field(s) and clicks the save again, or better yet, pause the code until all the required fields are completed and then complete the save. (There is actually another 200+ lines of code in this sub, but I deleted it to keep the post a little shorter.)

Logon Box - User / Pass - Unique Actions Per User.

Apr 2, 2009

I have a workbook that is used to track overtime hours worked through the year. I've received some help from users on this forum, and others, to create the necessary macros and formulas to allow a supervisor to make use of the form; however, the workbook is also used to track those that wish to volunteer to work overtime each weekend. The sheet has a list of names for the employees on each shift, then a column to allow a "Y" to be placed under the date - designating them as a volunteer for any overtime available. I've found this spreadsheet (attached - from this site) that will allow individual users to access the workbook and have unique passwords for each. I don't completely understand how it works, but I feel it may be a start to getting what I want.

Essentially, once the user selects their name and inputs their password, I'd like the workbook to be opened and then allow them to only manipulate the row associated with their name. That row will change from week to week, so specific numbers will not be able to be used, but their name will be the same as the name used in the logon.

I feel like I'm asking for a lot here, so just some initial guidance on whether this type of thing is possible would be an acceptable answer.

Click The Master Button, That Would Click Another Button On A Different Worksheet

Oct 22, 2008

Running into this issue of "transworksheet macros"

I have a master "update" commandbutton on sheet 1. I have two sub "update" buttons on sheet 2 and 3 respectively.

What I would like to do is have the user click the master button, that would "click" the two sub buttons so they run their respective macros on their respective worksheets (within the same worksheet.

I have tried pasting the macro code in the master button, telling it to select the sub worksheet and then run the macro, but the marco runs itself on the master worksheet instead.

MsgBox If Condition Not Met

Feb 21, 2010

Hi, Please could someone help with the following code. I have 2 sheets 'sheet 1' and 'sheet 2'(hidden). Sheet 1 has a control button that takes you straight to sheet 2, however what I wish to achieve is that before sheet 2 is visible a message box appears if a condition is not met. Something like, if sheet 1 R29 is less than 5000 then msg box appears (I would need about 4 lines in the msg box), if ok'd then sheet 2 appears. If the condition is met i.e sheet 1 R29 = or is greater than 5000 then the msg box does not appear and takes the user to sheet 2.
