The .xsl and .ppt files will be distributed in a folder to other members of the team so I need the link to not be specific to my computer. Is it possible to avoid using the full path and just use a short path such as .../desktop/tools/process.xls so that as long as they store the folder on their own desktop the link works?

I have a main worksheet that has two combo boxes. The first combo box has a list of machines. The second combo box brings up a list of models for the type of machine selected.

View 9 Replies View RelatedHow can I return name of a command button on click? I want to create some sort buttons on a sheet I will use regularly to speed things up. I thought if I could call each sort button by the column letter the button sits in I can use this in a single sub for all buttons
e.g the button sitting in column A is called "A". when i click the button, it returns it's name to a variable which I can then use to sort column A. I know I could create a seperate routine for each button but I was just trying to think of something neater.
I have a userform with a button on it named But1. Is it possible to store But1 into a variable then activate the But1_Click action using a variable?
Dim strButname As String
strButname ="But1"
Now, how would you activate the But1_Click method using strButname variable. With listboxes you can use the Control(strListboxName) methodology?
This doesn't work, but gives you an idea of what I am trying to do.
Controls(strButname)_click
I currently am using a form button to create new rows.
I need two different kind of buttons. I have a button that does this-
VB:
Sub InsertRow()
'this inserts a row where the button is clicked.
Dim r As Range
[Code]....
However, when I try and create these codes using a Command button (I need it for the color), I get the error
"unable to get the buttons property of the Worksheet class"
P.S one other thing, say the button is in row 3, and Cells A1 and A2 are merged, when you click the button in row 3, it should extend the merge to A3.

I have read several articles saying using a command button as a toggle button can't be done but some articles have said it is possible using the state properties.
.State = msobuttondown
.State = msobuttonup
Is there any way to combine this with the onaction property so that when you press the button, it stays down and activates a macro then when you press it again it pops back up and activates another macro.
I have searched this topic but I came up with nothing regarding my exact situation.
I have 5 buttons on sheet 1. I want them to all direct me to another sheet in the same workbook. However, some buttons will contain more than one sheet.
Example: Button 1 will direct me to 4 different sheets. Is this possible?
Also, When I open the workbook, I see many sheets that I am working from but I do not want them to show up when I open the workbook. The only way to see these sheets is to click on the command buttons at the top of sheet 1.
I have a problem and i believe someone else has this too. I have an excel file which contains near 600 hyperlinks to different websites. But my problem is i cant open more than 1 hyperlink at the time and in that way going trough 600 websites would take like 4days, is there any program / Software, plug in, or ANY way open Many hyperlinks same time so i dont need to click 1 after 1?
I tried
Sub OpenUrl()
Dim r As Integer
r = 2
Do
Cells(r, 1).Hyperlinks(1).Follow NewWindow:=False, AddHistory:=True
r = r + 1
Loop While Cells(r, 1).Hyperlinks.Count
End Sub
I have a VB macro script which needs to open a hyperlink. The hyperlink is a file on C: itself, but everytime I try to open the hyperlink, I get a safety prompt which confirms whether or not I want to open the hyperlink as they can be suspect. I need to know how to disable that prompt as that halts my macro right then and there. Does anyone know how to go about disabling this prompt message?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI need to post an Excel file to a web site that is sort of a "navigation" tool. What this tool will do is open a series of Excel files that are also on the web site, print something in them and then close them. My files have multiple worksheets, but if I use the OPEN command, my workbooks only have one worksheet (obviously, the first). So, I tried using the hyperlink(1).follow command which works and opens the file in its own window, however, as soon as the file opens, it has the focus and my macro in my navigation file stops and everything comes to a halt.

I have an existing button which has either a macro or hyperlink assigned to it which links to another worksheet within the workbook. I would like to change the worksheet it is linked to. I have tried right click - edit hyperlink and picked a different sheet, and also assign macro - record new macro. I have even removed hyperlink, then inserted new but no matter what it still goes back to the same sheet.
I am in this position after copying and pasting an existing button. I'm not sure how they designed it from scratch so I would really prefer to just change the link.
Is it possible to check multiple checkboxes with a command button?

how to keep a command button in a certain location even if the a row or Column is Deleted or Inserted into the worksheet?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI know that this may seem a little strange to request as you can just select the row and delete it, however the sheet is designed as "idiot proof", so I would like to implement this.
Basically, I have a box which states "If you need to delete a row due to incorrect entry, please type the row number here (next cell), and click delete".
I want to know if by using VBA, you can reference the number entered in the cell, and use this to determin the row in which we are required to delete.
I have a 2 worksheets. One "Projects in Process"and the other "Project Completed". when the users fill in the information in cells A4-F4 (line 4 is the starting line and it could go down as far as line 23 or a23 - f23) In Projects in Process they press a "completed Project" command button and the data in a4-f4 copies over to worksheet "Projects completed". In the next available row (starting at row 4).
