I have written the following code for blinking text.
But what I want is :
Suppose if I have a range of cells, in which I have text in red & green color.
Then whether it is possible to blink the text in red color only in a selected range ?
My Code :
Sub StartBlink()
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("c3:c6").Font
If .ColorIndex = 3 Then ' Red Text
.ColorIndex = 2 ' White Text
Else
.colorindex = 3

I have used conditional formatting, by which cells in a column (Column D) would either have "Text1" or "Text2" or "Text3". VB code so that macro runs a check on 'Column D' and if any cell contains "Text3", a pop-up appears with message "Text3 is there"
View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm sure there must be a way to dimension a string and format it for use in a MsgBox, but I have no clue how to do the initial formatting; any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
FYI - something along the lines of...
Dim S as String
S = "This part of the string is bold and italicized, and this part is not"
MsgBox S, vbInformation, "My Title"
I believe this would be a very simple query for some but I am a complete novice in VBa and am using a msgbox in one of my file but I need to split the message text into multiple lines but I do not know how to do the same.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have one column with a list of 2000 rows like this
apple
banana
carrot
dog
elephant
fish
goat
hat
I want to do is put all those lines of text / rows into one cell with the word "or" between each phrase. In other words in one cell all the above should be made into "apple or banana or carrot or dog or elephant or fish or goat or hat" . There should be no breaks.
I have a spreadsheet with rows of cells which are either blank or have text in them.
Is there an easy way to write a formula which will make the cells which have text in them bold and make the cell colour grey. But if the cell is blank keep the cell white.
I'm using excel to open a new word document, stick some text on different lines and then save and close. The trouble is, I want to bold the titles but when I do I either bold or unbold the entire document. The codes looks like this:
With wrdDoc
With .Content
.InsertAfter "TEST"
.Bold = True
End With
.Content.InsertAfter [Word_WordCount].Offset(0, 1).Value
.Content.InsertParagraphAfter
, etc....
I have some text that I am having to analyze which comes out of our computer looking like this:
N/0/N/Y/N/N/N/N/N/N/N/N/N/N/N/N/N
I use the text to columns function and headers above it to translate what each field is.
As I'm doing my testing if I do this once, I can keep the file open and any time I paste a similar entry in it takes care of the formatting.
But, is there way to make the file do that permanently? I want to let the other testers use it without making them have to go through the steps of clicking on the delimiter, etc.
I track inventory/sales for a very small sole proprietorship. I'm looking to track the number of items that I sell based on the text that I enter in a certain column.
Specifically, I want to have a visual chart/graph to show the percentage of each size/color of an item that I sell, as I sell it. When I enter the words "3T pink" I want the chart/graph/whatever to show another quantity of this category. As I sell a new item, I want the chart to reflect it.
The problem I'm having, is that the graphs/charts require two data sets, but I want the graph to calculate it for me! All I want to do is enter the text for specific items, and when the text occurs subsequent times, I want this reflected in the graph/chart.
It seems so much more simple in my head....basically I want a dynamic chart, not based on a static data set.

With all the formulas working (or at least through testing so far they are), I am now in the make the worksheets fancy mode.
I want to have a message pop up when the leader of the meet changes. I would love it if it would blink for a few seconds to alert the individuals looking at the worksheet but then it would disapear so as not to be annoying.
For example:
In event 1, team a is first, and team b is second.
Event 2 finishes, and I post the results in the spreadsheet.
In event 2, team b takes over the lead and team a is now second Place.
I wold like a message to appear (for a few seconds) saying (and blinking something like "Team A, Just Took Over 1st Place!" and then goes away.
This code works fine on a normal userform But I declared the userform with "New" in my calling procedure

How can I get it to work??
Or more interesting, why is it not working
Also what exactly is the advantage of using the keyword New
I have propertys set in the userform, but other than that..
Can someone tell me if the load function in this case is better or not

Flash objects on by browser when surfing site are working perfectly fine. i have also re-installed fresh flash from adobe site, but no success.
I have a an excel workbook that is distributed on a flash drive. Currently a Save As Macro copies "A1" as the file name and then opens a screen to allows the user to save that filename to a location that the user selects. What I would like to have happen is for a command button to start a macro that would automatically save the file back to the flash drive that the master workbook is located.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI created a macro, assigned to a menu button, that selects and prints a range on the active sheet. I created the macro with the recorder, then edited it to eliminate the excess. When I run the macro, though, it takes up to ten seconds to print the page and the screen flashes repeatedly while it's running. I also noticed that the length of the delay and the number of flashes seems to be related to the number of lines of code, because the delay was much longer and the flashing more excessive before editing.
Sub PrintContrReview_Click()
ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$Y$5:$Z$20"
With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
.LeftHeader = "&F"
.RightHeader = "&A &D"
.LeftMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(1.25)
.Zoom = 95
End With
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1
End Sub
So what is the cause of the flash and the delay, and how do I eliminate them?
I have a command button that I want to appear to be flashing (by continually changing the button's font colour text) which a user can click at any time. I can (almost) do this now by using 'Application.Wait Now + TimeValue', but this doesn't allow the user to click the button until the code has finished running.
