I am trying to create a trigger event that opens an email when a particular row is altered. This all worked fine, until I tried to take it a step further and insert information from the spreadhseet into the email aswell.
I receive Argument not optional.

If Target.Column = 10 Then
Call GenerateEmail(Target.Address)

I have already use excel web query, and set every 5 minutes auto update web.
And here is question , I want to use vba event to trigger when cell's value changed.
Unfortunately,
Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
This code didn't trigger successfully,I think that web query make cells
value changed didn't trigger the event.
I have a user entering text into a textbox on my userform. The textbox is linked to a textbox change event. Unfortunately, the event is triggered as soon as the user enters the first character of their entry. I'm thinking that the textbox change event isn't the most appropriate for this scenario. What would I need to do to trigger the code (of the change event) with hitting ENTER when finished?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIf no program (code) is running and Calculation is turned to ON, what expression could be placed into a cell that will change on its own that could necessarily and periodically trigger a change event subroutine. How can I trigger a change event when nothing is changing?
I have a situation where my code simply stops running so i need a change event to assess whether code is running (or not) and to issue a warning to the programmer that the code is, in fact, stalled. The change event subroutine has not only a warning system but a "timetorun" feature that will come back and warn again until the programmer can address the issue.
Unfortunately, I have to deal with this issue in a check and balance fashion because my many attempts to seek solutions to a stalled program (root cause) have failed.
I am working with a large legacy file/program which has a lot of issues. Foremost, and unfortunately this cannot be changed, is that all of the controls were placed directly on the worksheets instead of on Userforms.
I had previously posted code from the legacy file which may have been excessively complicated. So I edited my post to this simple example. Sheet1 has one textbox and one command button. Sheet 2 is blank.
If Sheet2.Activate is commented, everything works fine. If Sheet2.Activate is executed, then Excel crashes....
Does anyone no a way to trigger a macro by just using the enter key in a difined rage ("A1:A100") Not worksheetchange
View 9 Replies View RelatedOn my userform I have a frame. Within the frame, there are 6 option buttons. Can I trigger an event when when the user selects a different option button? I was expecting to see a Frame.Change method. But I don't. One solution is to insert code on each of the Option Buttons Change methods.

I am trying to write a worksheet_selectionchange macro in which the change is initiated only when certain cells are changed (B6:B9 and X9). I do not want the change to be initiated when any other cells on the worksheet change. B6:B9 and X9 are drop down boxes and the values within the drop-down boxes is variable.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a project report, which is user-configurable, allowing the user to customise the data that is displayed based on a number of parameters.
To ensure the report always prints neatly (the number of visible columns and rows varies, depending on the above parameters), so I have a macro that dynamically sets the print area of the worksheet.
At present, I call the macro from the workbook.beforeprint event, which works fine in terms of printing. Ideally however, I would like the macro to be called when CTRL+P is first pressed - i.e. the resulting 'print screen', containing a preview of the print out should reflect what will subsequently be printed, when the 'Print' button is then pressed.
I am not sure if this makes sense (Excel 2010 and 2013 are different from previous versions).
So, I have a worksheet with a bunch of combo boxes. The code for the worksheet is below. The issue I'm having is that anytime I drag and drop a cell anywhere on the page, every single control on the worksheet triggers. VB runs through all the code on the sheet, TWICE(I used the debugger extensively trying to find a solution), and causes dozens of successive re-calculations of the entire workbook, which has a couple of tables. This happens on any cell drag-drop on the worksheet, or when I click the command button on the screen.
I have no clue what is causing this. Even more bizarre, it seems to trigger a custom function which is located in a separate module, and isn't even utilized on the worksheet in question. I guess this is because it makes the whole workbook re-calculate?
I am having trouble trying to get an MS Access Query to run from MS Excel automatically.
I am trying to create an automated trigger in MS Excel that will automatically run my Access query by the times I specify in my statement.
For example: I need to run a query in Access at 9am, 12 pm and 10pm, that's it, but I believe I need to do it via Excel, I don't want the data returned to Excel, I just want Excel to execute the query at those specific times!
I have the code below that is two separate activities and I want to change the second activity from a cell trigger (Set KeyCells = Range("K42:AD42")) to a button trigger. I need to first to remain unchanged.
I'd be ok if this was just one macro that I could assign to a button but because its two and I need to write the second's to clicking a button I'm over my head.
Its occured to me while writing this that because it'll be a range of buttons I'll probably need to make each one an individual code? Is this the case? If so I may have to just keep this as it is.

Basically, my target column is column A, i have 200 employee numbers, now we have to find the email addresses manually which is useless so i want to spend the time writing some code like:
If the target column is 123456 then the offset column D is email address
If the target column is 654321 then the offset column D value is email address.
I have 200 statements like this ill need to add unless anyone has any suggestions, perhaps select case structure?? I dont really know where to start an so i await your replies.
I currently have the following code that copies a range opens notepad pastes the range opens save dialog and types the file name. The problem I have is with overwriting the existing file.

I want to create an event log by which I am able to track changes by the users. we work on LAN and any body can write on the workbook. my work is to check for discripencies. If I get any type of help by which I can track the user name, date, cell that has been changed and the PC address.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm using the function Proper(A1) to clean up some columns that have some entries in all CAPS. It works fine.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have all my info in a hughe ammount of books and they are all linked b/w them (about 15 books with 5-10 sheets each), the big issue is this:
Every time someone changes anything in any book most of my links get broken or they grab the wrong info, it takes up to 5-7 hours just to find the cell/column/etc. that got changed to fix it.
I've been thinking in protecting all my books and sheets and only allow users to change certain data by unprotecting specific cells, and then create a macro that open/unprotect all books/sheets so when a major structure/formula change is needed, all files linked to that book are open (cause I belive excel updates their formulas-links when they are open).
then create another macro that protects every single sheet of all books, saves and closes them...
questions are:
1. Is this ok?, or am I just wasting my time?
2. Is there a shorter easier way to prevent this from happening (broken links)?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm generating a letter (Word doc) and populating bookmarks with data on a worksheet using the following code which is assigned to a Button and it works a dream (in terms of opening the Doc and populating the bookmarks with whatever data is in the relevant cells on the worksheet):

However, what I now need to do is Create an Outlook Item (email) with a Standard Subject and send to an email address that will be on the same worksheet (in cell M2 for instance) and with a standard Body.
I dont really need to open the Word doc, like it does at present, but I do need the Bookmarks contained within it to be populated with the source data contained within the Worksheet and subsequently have it attached to the email fully populated - maybe I need to 'close' / 'save as & close' the Doc post generation?
a formula to create an email address. The person's name is in cell A1. The email addresses are all the last name + first initial followed by @ and the domain name. For instance, if name is John Doe, the email address would be doej@emaildomain.com.
The problem is, some of the names in the list contain middle initials, so I can't figure out a reliable way to discern the last name.
I know I can create a custom function in VBA using InStrRev to separate the last name, but if there is a way to do it using the functions already available in Excel, I'd rather do that.
