View 1 RepliesHow to use freeze panes? I am trying to freeze specific cells and all I seem to be able to do is freeze the top half of the spreadsheet.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to freeze specific panes? I know that you can use freeze panes to freeze cells to the left and above a specified cell but I am trying to freeze specific cells. For instance I want to freeze cells A1 through K25 so that when I scroll up everything else scrolls up and when I scroll right everything else scrolls right?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a macro which I recorded, then modified. The first thing it does is to freeze the top row, then it goes looking for a particular row and inserts some formulae. Nothing complicated at all.
It WAS working perfectly, but I wanted some improvements in the insertion of the formulae. I got that working just fine, but now the panes freeze in the wrong place. No matter what I do, it freezes at cell I16. I want only the top row frozen.
Found this code which was reported to work:
PHP Code:
    ActiveWindow.FreezePanes = False    Range("A1").Select    ActiveWindow.FreezePanes = TrueÂ
It still freezes at I16. I have tried shutting down Excel, and even my computer, in case it is some weird bug where something is stuck in memory.
I tried recording another macro to format some cells and also freeze the top row. Same result.
PHP Code:
Sub wraptext_top_row()'' wraptext_top_row Macro''   Â
Rows("1:1").Select    With Selection       Â
.HorizontalAlignment = xlCenter       Â
[Code] ..........
Same result. I tried copying the contents of the worksheet to Notepad, then into a fresh workbook, just in case there's some weird hangup in formatting that I can't see.
There is NOTHING in the original code that references that cell, or even that row or column. NOTHING. How it got hung up on that one cell I cannot fathom.
The Freeze Panes command works normally if I apply it manually. Any cell, anywhere, it works as expected.

I need to enter data every month for the following month (i.e. month end close, for previous month). For this example, let's say I just entered (in May) data for April. Current year is 2014. The attached above is what I have currently, and what I want to achieve. All of the cells have formulas, but I basically don't want data and variances shown for time periods not yet uploaded, so in my example, I should only see filled-in cells for January-April, and not May-December (keep in mind that 2013 data should remain, as these are time periods in the past). I've thought about many scenarios including: modifying the formula but not changing what it is currently doing (essentially gathering and adding data from a different worksheet), conditional formatting to "white out" all cells for months where 2014 data is not available using NOW or similar function. how to do it most efficiently without disrupting what's currently in place.

I need is for a block of cells (A1:I4) to be visible at all times. I've frozen the sheet so that the top four rows are always visible, but unfortunately the sheet is quite large, horizontally-speaking, so that when users scroll horizontally, important stuff scrolls off the screen.

I have saved 4 different blocks of cells and depending on an option chosen from a drop down menu i want to select one of more of these sets of data and paste them into a worksheet.
I have quarters of the year. I'm wanting to find a function wherein when I punch in for example year 2012, the cell would give me the sum of the 4Qs. If if change it to 2013, then it would give me the sum of 4Qs for 2013.
See attached sheet : sum from blocks of cells.xlsx
how I can get this:
John Smith
1 Aisleby Avenue
Nottingham
Notts
NO1 1ON
i.e. each line in it's own cell
to look like this:
John Smith
1 Aisleby Avenue
Nottingham
Notts
NO1 1ON
In other words, an address block in a single cell. Simple merging only saves the first cell's contents.
I need to do this for 500 addresses
Thats the best I could describe that What I face today is the means to run a VBA Autofilter from an Activecell. The Activecell is a search result. I have a table that spans from A1 to E5000. The Activecell will always be in Column A. What I need to happen in when the Activecell is found an Autofilter is placed in the block of data from Column B to E. The rows will change after every search hence my dilemma. Each block of data has its own header as well
So if my Activecell is A2 then I need B1:E4 Autofiltered then Column E sorted Smallest value to Largest. The Activecell needs to remain static. The size of the blocks of data are exactly the same.
Here is a photo example of the desired result. Untitled.jpg
There are hundreds of blocks of data like this.
I have a workbook consisting of two sheets: a Monthly Class Schedule (Divided into five one-week blocks. Each block's vertical is Mon to Fri, the horizontal is 9 class slots. There are 45 class slots pw). Each class has one student and the cells are filled 'Student Number, First Initial, Surname' eg, '666 J Smith'. Students may be scheduled for several class slots per week and some class slots have no students scheduled. When the student attends a 'P'is added at the beginning of the cell eg,'P 666 J Smith'.
The Student Attendance Report has the students listed vertically on the left, arranged by Student Number, and then a column for each week.
At the moment I have to manually count the classes each student has attended for each week and enter the attendance figures in the appropriate week column. It's a PitA so I want to automate the process by using the S#s in the Attendance Sheet to search the week blocks in the Schedule Sheet for 'P S#' and auto-fill the week columns in the Attendance Sheet.

How can I block the hidden cells, so that when I want to copy/paste into another workbook, pasted data has to be all, except hidden&locked cell?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have attached a small file with a very simple conditional formatting formula used to turn a block of cells green.
However, the formula does not seem to work properly as it only turns half of the cells green. Columns B1 to B18 are also supposed to turn green, but instead remain clear.
I have a protected template and unprotected source worksheets - - - what I would like to happen is for the macro to start and if the source worksheet cell B3 equals "Report Total" then stop - otherwise copy template worksheet then copy 6 specific cells from the source to paste values to specific cells on the newly created worksheet (B_ to C7, D_ to I7, E_ to C9, F_ to K9, A_ to C11, M_ to K11 and then K13=F13-30)
After that then start all over again unless the next row’s cell (B4, B5, B6, . . .) is "Report Total" then stop - - - the row count could be from one to a couple hundred.
Here is what I have so far but I know that with each copy the name will change and as it goes down the source file each row will change and I also need help with that.
Sheets("ee template").Copy After:=Sheets(3)
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
Selection.ClearContents
Range("I7").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("C7").Select
Sheets("source").Select
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -11).Range("A1").Select
Here is what i am trying to achieve. If the date 2/20/2010 is located at F53 & the cell next to it at H53 is populated with a number between 1 & 16, then i want the cell at J11 (42 rows further up) to auto populate with the number 1. When this occurs the cells beneath this, from J12 to J52 should also auto populate with the with consecutive numbers from 2 to 42. Would also like to see the cells with numbers 1 to 28, automatically format to orange & the cells containing numbers 29 to 42 automatically format to yellow. I plan to have this condition repeat several times later in the year, at dates that are to be decided. When these dates are decided i want to be able to enter a number from 1 to 16 & next to the date & all of the above automatically occurs.

I've tried:

but it doesnt work & now I'm stuck.
I have multiple sheets as part of my excel calculations which refer to the first sheet in the group. Each one calculates different values for me based on the numbers I put into the sheet.
So to put in these numbers, I insert new rows to the start of the sheet which is what I always want it to calculate. Some of the calculations are comparative to other points from my original page. So I might ask it to go back and compare to 3 months ago or 6 months ago.
Long story short, when I insert those new rows, the formula on the other pages shift down to stay on the previous days data. How can I lock it in so it stays focused on just the cell I tell it to reguardless of how I move those cells around. So when i hit insert, I still want it focused on that sheets A1 and NOT A2.
I attempted to look up the help section but since I am having a hard time putting this into words, help was not much "help".

I am using Excel 2010 and basically i am trying to fill a range of cell with a green color if any value was enter in a specific cells. Example: I would like to fill range: A10:c13 with a green color (regardless of the cells content in this range) if a value was entered in cell C10 or C11 or C12 or C13.
I've tried conditional formatting but unfortunately I'll have to apply formatting for every cell and for a range of over hundred cells is not efficient.
I'm working on a project for my company. We make plastic tanks and for quality control we want to start recording the thickness of the tanks in different areas/zones of each tank.
Attached to this message is an Excel sheet that I've been working on. From "Sheet 1", it records inputted thicknesses into WorkSheet "1098". On the top of "1098", it shows all of the recordings, and just below that are the "10 Most Recent Entries".
Right below the "10 Most Recent Entries", there are formulas to calculate the Min and Max Values. Whenever a new entry is recorded, the selected cells for the Min and Max formulas change. Is there a way to force the cells to always stay the same?
I have a couple of spreadsheets that has several columns each containing several hundred thousand rows of codes. To quickly analyze this data, I am trying to come up with a conditional formatting formula to highlight the respective cells when specific values occur next to each other. A particular code will show up in many cells, but the code that is the respective adjacent cell is always different. I need to know when row A contains, for example, '9928559' and row B contains '36415RT'.
