I have a database that is growing and growing now obviously the more i put in it the bigger it gets
i have a cell that says something like "uk open welsh regional finals"
now to cut this down i would like to just put "uowrf" and when i hover the cell or even click the cell it would tell me what them initials stood for
I created 5 charts and instead of having them spread everywhere in the worksheet, I would like them to be "reduced" to some kind of a link contained in a cell (at the botom of the data of each chart). Then, I would like the chart to appear only if I put the mouse on this cell.
In excel 2007, I have an embedded image on a sheet which I want to make it hidden by default. When someone hovers over a particular cell say cell B3, then image should be displayed below this cell (sort of hyperlinking) and when the cursor or activell cell is not in B3 it should be hidden again. What steps/technique/VBA code will make it happen ?
The formula below is returing a 0 when vlookup does not find a match. Is there a way to return a space rather than a error or zero when the lookup is not met....
I don't know if this is possible or not but I am looking for a way to hover over a cell and have an image appear. If this is not possible is there a way to add something like a comment on the cell but have it be an image not text? Currently I have the cell hyper-linked to the image but it would be nice if I did not need a whole other window to pop up.
I have a Listbox with multiple items (Multiselect property is on). However, due to the length of the items not all the parts of it is visible within the listbox.
Is there a way by which if a user hovers the mouse over an item in the ListBox (or selects an item), the whole item is visible (the way it is done in ControlTipText)
Is there any way I can activate a sub routine when the user passes the mouse cursor over an activeX object.
For example this activates code when the user interacts with an activeX scroll bar:
VB: Private Sub ScrollBar2_gotfocus() Dim A, B, C If OLEObjects("checkbox1").Object.Value = False Then B = Range("B4").Value A = (100 - B) / 2 C = (100 - B) / 2 End If
IS there a "gotfocus" equivalent such that code will run if the user simply passes their mouse cursor over the scroll bar EVEN IF they dont click it?
a button to run a macro but i don't like the standard plain grey buttons that excel offers. i saw a friend using one in his project but don't want to ask him how he did it as it would be considered copying. i will add an image to explain my specifications. there must be an easier way than having to design it and you vba to code the colour change.
I've created several buttons that link to macros that I have put in the first row of my sheet. I've freezed the panes so they won't move so you can see the buttons form wherever you are so you can use them. However, I'd like to describe what the buttons do somewhere so it's easy for users to use them...
I was thinking the easiest way to do this would be when you hover over the button it shows text in a a little pop up window...like if you hover over an image sometimes there is text that appears.
Is there VBA code that I can write to make that happen? How would I then tie it to a button? To create the buttons under developer I just did Insert, Form Control, Button...
When you hold your mouse over a bubble on a bubble chart, it typically displays the x value, y value and size value. Is there any way to add other captions to display? For example, if my chart is based on sales data and I'm plotting a point based on ease of probability (x axis) and dollar value (y value)....I'd also like to see the initials of the salesperson assigned to that prospect when I hover over the bubble?
I have been working on different formulas to return the text string between the first and last space and have been unsuccessful. Is this possible?
I have tried several combos or Left and Right, I have been able to get the values after the first space, and the values before the last space, but not between the spaces.
String: Y60 ~C CULT NUCLEUS 3X2 SPRING WST BK XL
Desired results: D60 CULT NUCLEUS 3X2 SPRING WST BK
I have the following formula that works fine until someone uses the space bar to clear a cells contents
=COUNTA($D11:$AI11)
When the space bar is used to clear a cells contents the COUNTA statements includes the space in the count. How do I count the number of cells with content and exclude the space bar space in a cell?
User selects 'go to page B' on page A. They look at an object then click the object to go back to page A. Once back on page A they need to check data on page B, but in the same general location as where they just looked. This is over simplified, but pretty much sums up what I need to do. The code I have now is below, but keeps sending me to the last selection on my current page.
Public Sub SaveLocation(ReturnToLoc As Boolean) Static WB As Workbook Static WS As Worksheet Static R As Range If ReturnToLoc = False Then Set WB = ActiveWorkbook Set WS = ActiveSheet Set R = Selection Else WB.Activate WS.Activate R.Select End If End Sub
Public Sub SetSaveLoc() SaveLocation (False) End Sub
Public Sub GetSaveLoc() SaveLocation (True) End Sub
I'm trying to automate the importing and processing of a fairly large formatted text file (~15000 lines) containing many tables of data. I've been refining this process for several months and recently was alerted to a problem. A few of my tables have widths greater than 255 characters (309 to be exact).
My process involves opening the text file in Excel then performing a .Copy on the Worksheet into ThisWorkbook, naming the sheet "Source". I then perform up to 66 separate parse operations on the various tables depending on which options a user selected from a form.
The problem is that I assumed that the Copy Method would simply make a duplicate of that sheet in ThisWorkbook. Instead, it seems to have truncated any columns that are longer than 255 characters, leaving me with partial data in a few tables.
My workaround was to perform a TextToColumns on the text file prior to the import such that it would simply split the data into columns that could be reassembled on the other side. In doing so, I seemed to have stripped a leading <space> from each cell which was apparently put there previously. This is causing a lot of problems for my formatting code which also uses TextToColumns to separate the tables into columns. The simplest solution seems to be trying to add the spaces back in, assuming there isn't a better way to import this data in the first place.
Just prior to copying the sheet into ThisWorkbook, I'm using the following code after the TextToColumns to add the space back in, but it's taking an awfully long time and causing a noticable time delay in processing my code and adding considerable size to the finished workbook it creates. If someone could recommend a better solution, either to the import process or to replace this God-awful loop, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
Application. ScreenUpdating = False For i = 1 To 65535 wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,3).Formula = " " & wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,1).Value wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,4).Formula = " " & wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,2).Value wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,1).Formula = wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,3).Value wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,2).Formula = wkbk.Sheets(1).Cells(i,4).Value Next i wkbk.Sheets(1).Range("C:D").ClearContents Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Also, I don't know how long the actual file will be, so I'm almost forced to assume 65535...
in my workbook I have a list of names. Some of these names have a blank space at the end of them. How do I get rid of that blank space? Basically, it might say:
John Brown Fred Basset Fred Jones Ian Smith Ian O'Donnell Adam Simpson
And if you put your cursor at the end of each of those names, you'll see that some have a blank space at the end, and some don't. How do I trim this blank space away from the end?
some vale in the column where i do a vlookup to get data
but i have some problem the vlaue in the cells contains space at the end and i am not able to remove i tried TRIM and also text to column but it does not work
I have a column of data that should be showing as currency but will not format that way because there is a space at the end of the cents. I tried doing a CtrL+H and replace the space with nothing but the space remains.
I need to delete the first space of each cell in a column. These cells are referenced in a formula, and those cells that have a character in the first space of each cell allows the formula to work. However, most of the cells have one space before the characters begin in each cell. When I go to one of those cells and delete the empty space then the formula works for that cell. My problem is I need to reformat hundreds of cells in that column but not all. I would like to be able to highlight those that need the first space deleted and not do this one cell at a time.
I have a name field that contains last name comma first name space parenthesis text parenthesis space parenthesis text (may have a space or hyphen within then a final parenthesis).
Examples:
Smith, John (MD) (Family Practice) Brown, Alice (DO) (Oncology) White, Joseph (MD) (OB/GYN)
I need to remove everything after the degree so that it looks like this:
Smith, John (MD) Brown, Alice (DO) White, Joseph (MD)
I am interested in some sort of macro or formula that will strip all of the characters in a cell that come after that last space. My difficulty lies in that the string isn't a constant character count nor is the string always the same.

I would like for it to say: American Legion Post 8754 YWCA
I often have to work in Excel-spreadsheets which provide values to me in a rather unpractical way. For some reason, every cell entry starts with a space, followed by the value. It makes it impossible to start calculating with the values right away.
I tried replace: " " with: "" But that way all the spaces in the sheet are removed, not just the spaces at the start of each cell. I would like to avoid that, as it makes the descriptions a bit difficult to read...
So, any ideas on how to write a little macro (or a tric in Excel itself) which I can use to quickly get rid of those spaces and start calculating?
