I need to name a cell that is the active cell. The active cell can be any cell that is selected at the time I need to name it. I can get it to name the cell using the cell address, but I don't know how to change it to the active cell. Below is the code that I tried, but the syntax that I tried to say what cell is to be named simply isn't correct.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to write a statement that sees if the the row below the active row is empty.
I have written the following but it is wrong. Please can someone correct it for me? Thanks!
If IsEmpty(ActiveCell.Row.Offset(1, 0)) = False Then
MsgBox "Not Empty"
End If
whenever the active cell is within a given range, highlight the cell on the same row in column S (by changing its interior colour). This should occur each time the active cell is changed, whether by cursor keys or mouse. The effect would be similar to the row and column highlights at left and top of the worksheet.
This action should be restricted to one sheet in the workbook.
It's for Excel 2003.
I have got stuck on one piece of my code and having trouble fixing... Overall I am trying to find variable station name in cell L2 of Sheet 2 in Sheet 1 and then select and copy the data from the data in "cell L2 of Sheet 2" to the last entry of that row. I have attached an example test spreadsheet of the data and a macro is within Sheet 1 called test1. Please note that cell L2 in Sheet 2 will always be different station name and the station list in Sheet 1 will change with differing station name.

the following code works well i have a range of cells(e1:o17) i click on one of those cells to enter a score into (a2) the next cell i click enters a score into (b2) ok so far but if i need to enter the same score consecutively as needs to be done from time to time i cant do it because the cell is still active.

I've got working routines that do some action upon double-clicking within a specific range of cells. I want to be able to "wrap" this routine within a routine that will record the activeCell prior to the double-click and, upon completion of my routine, return to that prior location.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a formula in cel B1 : =SUM(A2:A100) / A1
I would like to use this formula many times in the sheet, so I would need a reference to the cell the formula is in, and have the SUM range until the next empty cell one column to the left.
So I would need something like (literally):
=SUM(Offset activecell (1,-1) : Offset activecell (1, (look for next empty cell -1)) / Offset activecell (0,-1)
I have a range of unlocked cells (B5:S10) that users enter data in. This sum of this data is then charted. The formula (sum) in a cell equals zero even when there is no data entered by the user. This zero is then charted.
I need to be able to plot the zeros if the user enters zeros but not plot the zero if the cells are blank.
What I was attempting to do is to use the worksheet change event to add the formulas to a cell so that the chart does not plot the value until something was added.
In my change event I need to know that a cell in the range (B5:S10) was changed and that if it was D7 (for example) that I need a formula enterd in D11 [=SUM(D5:D10)]. If it was I5 then the formula would have to go in I11 [=SUM(I5:I10)].
I'd like to ranage the range selection from D1 to A1:B53, but a number of attempts have failed. but can't get it working.

FileName = "R" + Scheme + Product + "_" + Format((Date + 1), "DDMMYY") + ".RP3.txt"

Need to find the first cell above the active cell containing any sort of variable (integer, string value, cell fill colour, named range, etc...).
For example, a column contains multiple integer values between 1 and 10. I would like the macro to "locate" a specified value, say 3. Ideally the macro will select the first cell matching this criteria, located above the active cell. Once located, the resulting cell will be added to a range to be copy-pasted to a new worksheet.
I am planning to use this code for various applications in a workbook I am creating. At present the code will be used to locate string values, and cell fill colours. It is also likely this will extend to other types of variables in the future.
I've found information relating to the find function, but nothing specifically to find the first result above the active cell.
So, I just started checking Excel Macros. I'm working on a quite large data base where I need to search for a given part number and then move N columns to the right and display the text inside that cell on a message box.

Cells.Find(What:="M0016216", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt _
:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate

I am just learning to use VBA and this may be the most simple task ever, but I can't figure it out. I've searched for all of the keywords I can think of, but can't find a solution...
I have a list of names in a sheet. Other columns in this sheet contain data like amount charged, amount paid, etc. This sheet must be manually updated (because the other program won't export the information I need) periodically to ensure proper billing/payment application in the original software (all transactions are handled by other people that I don't trust).
I sort the list so that the all names that are the same (ie John Doe) are together.
A short example list looks like this:
Jeremy Apple
John Doe
John Doe
John Doe
Jimmy Kravitz
Jimmy Kravitz
In updating my sheet, I set up a macro that will input todays date in one of the columns for all occurences of that name (so, every row that contains John Doe in column B, column V will have todays date in it).
Currently, in order for my macro to work properly, I have to manually make the activecell the first occurrence of 'John Doe'. When I'm ready to update 'Jimmy Kravitz', I have to select the first occurrence of 'Jimmy Kravitz' and so on.
Here's my question - Is there a way to use a VBA macro to find the first occurrence of 'John Doe' (and automatically 'know' which name I am updating)? Basically, I need a macro that will take the information that is in the cell in column B in the active row, find the first row that has that same name, and make that cell (column B) the active cell...

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am looking for VBA that will add the value of the current active cell on the sheet to the value in cell F12. The maximum value of F12 cannot exceed 1000. So if the value in F12 = 950 and 100 is the value in the active cell the maximum value in F12 should show 1000, not 1050.
It should do this on the click of a button.
I have a macro in the Worksheet module which begins as follows, however I would like the cursor to be in cell "E1" when the sheet is activated.

I'm sure that there is a way of achieving that but just can't find it?
I have a list of items in cells b2 to z2. I want to display the contents of those cells in b2 dependent on what the active cell is. For example if the active cell is in column b I want a2 to show b2. If the active cell is in column C I want A2 to show C2, etc.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to automatically put information from several cells into one cell, when these cells are clicked. Let's say that A1:J8 is the range were a cell can be clicked and if a cell is clicked in that range the value of these cells should be put in cell A9. If possible I want to avoid private subs in a worksheet. I preffer to have a macro running, so I can decide when to stop this routine.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a sheet were i want to insert a new blank line at a spcecific point.
When a cell, ex. A28 is marked, i have made a macro that makes a new line at that point. The only thing is, i cant figure out how i make alterations to a certain cell in that row (to make sure it is the same every time.. there will be many users to the document, and i dont want any to make some big stupid mistakes by altering something, so every new row should be formatted the same way every time..)
I have recorded the following:
Sub ActiveRowTest()
'
Rows("28:28").Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown
Range("K28").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[-2]+RC[-1]"
Range("H28,F28,E28,K28").Select
Selection.NumberFormat = "#,##0".................
Suppose I have this UDF:
Public Function test()
test = ActiveCell.Column
End Function
This is great only when I evaluate the function test() one cell at a time. When I copy this formula to other cells or perform autofill Excel thinks that the active cell is the first cell in the series.
What I really want is for the function to return the column of the CELL that contains the function, and not the cell that's last clicked.
Get value from another cell using Offset and active cell. I can do this in VBA but I cant seem to do it on a worksheet.

I'm trying to compare two lists of foods, one input by a user (together with number of servings consumed), the other a list of foods with their calorie content. Then I'm trying to get the number of servings associated with the user's input (in a cell adjacent to the one I'm in for the comparison/search), and get the calorie content of that food from the list (also in an adjacent cell), so I can multiply the two to get total calories consumed. However, I'm getting, variously, "Wrong number of args," "Type mismatch," "Application/Object-defined error," and so on.
The code below shows what I've tried, and I think I'm doing something braindead basic wrong, but I can't find what my error is. Everything works in the snippet (that is, I've correctly Dimmed the variables, I get my food match, and the row indexes keep up correctly), except the attempt to write, for instance, the number of servings to the variable 'o'. That cell ref fails.
m = 7 'initializes the row index of Daily Data block of the Inputs sheet for the food items
n = 2 'initializes the row index of the Data sheet for the food items
r = 0 'initializes value total carorie content of food item across number of times eaten in a day

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got 3 columns say A,B,C. Column C (row1) = Column A (row1) * Column B (row1). I'm trying to apply this formula to all the cells in Column C. I've tried typing the following formula in all of column C. =OFFSET(ActiveCell,0,-1) * OFFSET(ActiveCell,0,-2)
Obviously the ActiveCell reference doesn't work. This would be simple in VBA but here on excel how would I reference to the cell itself where the formula is contained?
