I have a "master" tab that has a dropdown menu (via a validation list) which will determine what the spreadsheet does. Based on the value selected via this dropdown, I would like to show the relevant tabs and hide the irrelevant tabs. I would prefer for this to happen automatically without a macro.
View 5 RepliesI have tabs within my workbook that are pulling from other tabs in the same workbook. There are 30-40 tabs, and only 10-15 are used at a time. Is there a way to hide tabs that are not being used? If I do a calculation in A1 and it's greater than 0, I'd like the tab that is pulling from A1 to be visible. If A1 is 0, then I'd like to hide it.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a way to hide and unhide tabs. The first sheet of the workbook is an information sheet and I have a dropdown box in cell N3 to select Yes or NO to correct financial issues. If I select NO I would like to also hide tabs for sheet 4 and sheet 22.
I have used this for hiding rows:
If ActiveSheet.Cells(2, 2).Value = 0 Then Rows(146).Hidden = True
Can this be adapted to hide tabs?
I was wondering if it is possible to hide workbook tabs according to cell value?
Take for instance, if cell B30 in sheet "Fee Schedule Finder" is blank then the sheet "ES Schedule" is hidden. I know it would be some sort of VBA code but I am lost on this one.
If I didn't explain well enough please let me know!
I've done a search for this but cant find the complete answer for what I'm looking for. Basically I've got a "Home Sheet" set-up where the user can only navigate to worksheets via the buttons on the home page (with a short- cut to go back to the home page). It works ok (very basic though) but the user can still use the worksheet tabs at the bottom of the screen to navigate (making this system void).
how I can, either, hide the worksheet tabs at the bottom of excel, or, a better way of navigating these worksheets (there is only about 6 of them).
Im creating a userform, i have two choices, when a combobox event changes, a second form loads, thats fine, but would it not be more efficient if i were to have hidden tabs on the main form? if so - can anyone advise how i can hide the tab/tabs until the combobox event is triggered.
My "main" aim is to have a VERY quick and slick user interface.
If required i can upload the code - just shout.
knew if there was a way to hide the available tabs in an excel worksheet.
I know you may be thinking just right click and hide, however what I am looking for is a little different.
Basically I have a Macro Enabled work sheet which works on a "one click" system. The work sheet is full of buttons with assigned macros and data validation drop down boxes which link to many different tabs. The entire sheet is for information only so I will be locking the sheets to avoid data manipulation. The problem with right clicking and hiding the tabs is that it interfears with the macros.
All I really want to do is make these tabs not visible. I have set the sheet to open in full screen mode and they obviously are still there, but this is basically what I am looking to do. Not so much hide them in terms of sending them into the background, more so make them "drop off" the bottom of the screen to they are still active but not visible.
I am trying to find a library with vb/macros that can hide and unhide all worksheet tabs except one, the formula, and the menu bar.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have about a dozen tabs, all of which have vlookups in them and calculate based on what a user pastes into Sheet 1. I need a macro that hides all tabs that have no data, essentially tabs where A1 = ""
However, it also needs to unhide tabs as soon as there is data. So if the user pastes new data into Sheet 1 the vlookups, on the other sheets, still need to run (even if they are hidden) and then check against the macro to determine whether to be hidden or unhidden.
Is it possible to hide specific worksheet tabs.
I have a workbook with many worksheets and I only want to hide Sheet1 and Sheet2.
I have looked through alot of this board and see the codes to hide all tabs old and new and code for each sheet.
My question is:
Is there a macro that can be used to do this as well. Say a button to hide all tabs and a button to show all tabs or does it only hide/show when the workbook is re-opened?
Does anyone know of a way with VBA to hide the tabs when saving excel as a web page?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have nearly finished my project, but need to make the last real bit of code, then just some general tidying up.
What I want to do
- I currently have two tabs in a userform - one called 'main' and one called 'extra'.
- I want Main to always be shown to the user.
- I want Extra to be hidden (is it possible to make the tabs invisible?) and for this form to be shown only under a specific condition
I have a question on my userform (using Option Buttons):
"Did the customer ask about an extra product today?"
If the answer to this question is no - When the user hits the command button (after filling out the rest of the form), do nothing special - just return all the values to the worksheet
If the answer is yes - When the user hits the command button, I want them to be taken to the 'extra' tab. They will fill out some additional check-boxes, then hit another command box, which will return the info from both the 'main' and 'extra' sheets into the same row of the worksheet.
In brief: I want my 'extra' tab to be hidden, only to appear when 'yes' is selected, and for the results all to go back to the worksheet.
i need a code to hide the sheets tab from the workbook. and only show the horizontal scroll bar and vertical scroll bar.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to select all yellow tabs (color code 6) in a workbook with over 70 tabs and hide all empty rows within A1:I36 on each of these yellow tabs. the position of the tabs needs to be unchanged (sorting by tab color not allowed). I got this code from another excel forum but somehow it only works when i select one yellow tab and run it and the code only works on the one yellow tab i selected. can fix this code so that it can loop through all tabs (yellow and non color) and do what i mentioned above for each yellow tab?
Sub HideMT()
Dim Ws As Worksheet
Dim wsColor As Long

I need to create the formula in "Sum state" sheet B2 to sum items for tab AZ (b2:b6). The formula needs to work when I drag it down to other cells.
For example if I drag formula to B3 it needs to adjust the tab from AZ to CA, and add things for that tab. Each cell from A2 :A 11 represent a state and each tab has actual info for each state
I've been trying to get a macro together which would colour all the tabs in my workbook based on whether or not a certain value exists in a certain cell. In this case the cell is C7 and the word there is "elective class:".
View 7 Replies View RelatedI was recently posed with the following by our PMO: "Can I, or how do I, print only those tabs that belong to specific PM? I know I can go and select just those tabs collectively and print but I hate sifting through these 40+ tabs to find the ones that belong to PM "X". Can't you just use, or create, a macro or something?"
I replied that this might be limitation of Excel but that I would research it and see.
The project template cell reference is D5, there are 11 tabs containing project info for this PM (out of 43), it is running on XP, and is in Excel 2002.
i'm trying to basically use VBA, so that when a list of work tab names are entered into a column in say Sheet 1..these tabs are then selected.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a macro to rename tabs based on information in A1 on each tab. The thing that is causing me issues is the cell A1 has a formula in it and it changes on a daily basis with days of the week but the tab only updates when i double click A1 and press enter.
I need it to update automatically.
I have a worksheet with like lots of color coded tabs and the tabs increase everyday. The tabs are categorized based on 6 colors. I created a first tab in order to give how many tabs i have another each color. Is that doable in excel. Do I need a macro for this.
All I want is each time i open the excel sheet the first tab will be automatically updated with how many tabs I have under each color instead of me counting the tabs.
I have a workbook with multiple tabs, each tab is representative of a person and their ongoing project list. What I am trying to do is to be able to pull rows from each tab identifying the persons active projects based on an assigned due date.
Details: Tabs for Tom/Susan/Phil/Jerry each person will be updating their own sheet with project completion details. Each tab has similar headers with a corresponding due date or completion date. On the master sheet I would like to pull those rows that correspond to the specific dates for all persons.
Example - give me all rows that reflect projects due on 1/21/2014.
I work with contracts and have to report the sales for each contract by customer number, name, address, product code or sku, sales amount, quantity, and invoice date. Each contract number is associated with a product group and within that product group are a laundry list of product codes or skus.
Customers are often on different contracts for different products and may purchase some or all of the products on that contract. When I run a query from the system to extract this data, I get one sheet that contains 20,000 lines that have to then be sorted and seperated into different tabs based on the contract number. Keep in mind that a customer may be listed multiple times because each line in the query represents a product code and an invoice date.
I currently have a macro that will format the reporting such that it sorts the data, however, what it doesnt do is look for each instance of a particular contract number and separate it into different tabs.
So below are two examples: April and May 2008 Reports
April 2008 Report
Contract 1 contains 5,000 lines of data - extract into new tab
Contract 2 contains 5,000 lines of data - extract into new tab
Contract 3 contains 5,000 lines of data - extract into new tab
Contract 4 contains 5,000 lines of data - extract into new tab
Total lines = 20,000
May 2008 Report
Contract 1 contains 7,500 lines of data - extract into new tab
Contract 2 contains 5,500 lines of data - extract into new tab
Contract 3 contains 8,000 lines of data - extract into new tab
Contract 4 contains 9,000 lines of data - extract into new tab
Total lines = 30,000
So for the April Example, I would like excel to take this one list and break into 4 new tabs based on the contract number and carry over all of the data into that tab.
Where this may become difficult is that there may be more lines of data one month and fewer another. Im not sure if there is a function that will tell excel to stop when it reaches the last line for one contract number and to start a new tab for the next contract number. (see the month of May example)
I have 5 sheets. In the first sheet I have set up 4 cells where I want the contents of them to automatically rename the other 4 corresponing sheets.
Eg.
In Sheet 1, Cell B6, I want the contents (which will be text) to be the name of sheet 2 automatically.
In Sheet 1, Cell B7, I want the contents (which will be text) to be the name of sheet 3 automatically.
How would I reorder columns & tabs based on a form where the user can put them into order that they would like the columns? I forsee some type of form where the user can dsignate the order and then start a macro that will sort both the columns and tabs.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to get Excel (2007) to change the colour of tabs to match other tabs in the workbook
Using this code I get the colour code of the current tab
Code:

Code:
ActiveSheet.Tab.ColorIndex = x
The tab is a different colour!
I have a summary page that includes the titles for each tab within the excel 2003 workbook. I want to use the names of the tabs in the summary page and create it into a formula to lookup fixed cells within the various tabs. Sorry for not uploading an excel doc but I was at work earlier and the thread did not load for some reason, so I am reposting it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have 5 cities and each city has a set of data in separate tabs. Right now i have data pulled for all 5 cities in a single sheet but its too cramped up..
I want to use a drop down list (data validation) and if any of the 5 cities are selected in the drop down, the data from that particular city (tab) should be pulled up. This way my sheet size will be reduced 5 time which will look good.
A common v lookup wont work because the data has to be pulled from 5 different tabs for 5 different cities.
I searched a few times for the answer to my problem, using different search terms, but I've come up somewhat empty (this *might* be because I'm not up-to- speed with Excel's terminology?). Anyway, my problem is this: I have a workbook which is designed to track various data for a corporate training course ( sheets for attendance, grades, tool logins, etc). After all of these are sheets numbered 1-25 (we never have more than 25 students in a class, but usually around 20). The numbered sheets correspond to the student's number in the on the class list sheet (so, the first student would have personal "report card" information on sheet 1; the eleventh student in the class list would have their information on sheet 11, etc).
What I would like to do is have some way of putting a button on the class list sheet which would look at student list and rename the sheets to correspond to the student names. For example, if the fifth student listed was 'John Doe', it would rename his personal sheet ('5') to 'John Doe'. Obviously, I would need to do it for all of the students, and IDEALLY it would then get rid of any numbered sheets which are not used (having 21 students would only rename the first 21 sheets, but then hide sheets 22, 23, 24, and 25).
I want to create a macro that creates a new .xlsx document based on cell values. And input 4 tabs into each document with specified tab names. I have a document that pulls from external sources and fluctuates with amount of data per day. I envision something that will make a new document named for the contents in cell A1, then function as a control+down to create a new document for A2, then A3 until there is no content left (should mention these are lookup formulas, and if there is no data it pulls a value of "0")
Is there a way to put in the code, the tab names it would create in each new document, or would that have to look to a cell value for the naming? The tab names would be "GS", "MYSS", "COLL SHEET", and "WIRE".
