how to have VBA go in and type words in a field and click 'go', 'search', 'submit'.Vice Versa, If I open a web page (without VBA), How do I make it so that once that web pages opens, VBA is triggered to pull info from a text box on that web page?
I seem to have broken something!. Whenever I double-click to open an Excel file (.xls files are associated correctly), Excel opens, but nothing happens. That status bar says "Ready," but my workbook never appears.
If I do a File-> Open within Excel, then I am able to open the workbook. I have no idea what is going on. This occurs for all Excel files whether they contain macros or not.
once the command button on sheet 1 is clicked, a input box appears which asks "has this number been entered" and has a place to enter a number within the input box.
Once the info is entered in the input box, it searches through sheet 2 for the number. If the number is found, I would like for a box to pop up with the number found and the name that is next to the number from sheet 2.
If the number is not found, I would like for a box to pop up and say "number not found"
I'he a button in Excel Userform and i want to open directory using button cliick and put selected directory in textbox1 e.g. i've selected D:Susheel then it will reflect in textbox1
I have a User Form that I am trying to open with a button click. I made a copy of one workbook with a new name. The Buttons and Macros were all copied as well. I modified the old Userform so that I can release Version 2 of the Userform, and now when I click on the button in Excel, I get the following error : Object doesn't support this property or method. Run-Time error '438'.
The code assigned to that button is as follows:
Sub Button121_Click() ' ' Button121_Click Macro ' Macro recorded 8/11/2002 by Kale Mayfield
' UserForm1.Show
End Sub
What am I doing wrong? HELP! Once you have the Userform populated with ComboBoxes,Textboxes, etc., is there now way of making changes to that Userform? If you make changes and rearrange the locations of the buttons and boxes and labels... does that mess up the button in Excel that opens the form to begin with?
I use Excel to track all purchase orders for my company. Is there a way to just click on the purchase order number in its cell and have it find and open the purchase order .pdf file that I have saved on the server. The file name is the same as the purchase order number. I do not want to use hyperlinks because there are over 11,000 files I would have to link to. I think it would be easier for me to just select the cell and have the information in the cell be the search name.
I want to reference a cell from another workbook that is a hyperlink, but I want it to stay as a hyperlink and not text. Example would be workbook1 cell A1= workbook2 cell A5(which is a hyperlink) but in workbook1 A1 shows the text of the name of the hyperlink. I want the workbook1 cell to be exactly the same hyperlink...this way when I have multiple workbooks I just need to change the master workbook.
i need vba code to Automatically Click on "Yes" button. Actually i download excel file from website, it seems display security alert box before open the excel (ie:" Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file, Do you want to open the file now? "), i need a code to automatically click on "Yes" button in the Alert box.
I was wondering if possible i could use an on_click method to open the find facility in excel. I know it may be easier to use the Edit, Find or Ctrl+F way.
But i have people using excel with no past experience what so ever, and i would like to make it as easy as possible....i.e a click of a button that says "Search".
I have a menu structure in place so when a user clicks a button, it opens a Userform as a menu. The only problem i have is that if the user doesnt want to use that menu, and clicks on the spreadsheet, it doesnt dissapear.
Is there any VBA code that anyone knows that when a user clicks on the spreadsheet, or even just clicks their mouse anywhere (ie other menus at the top, spreadsheet, desktop) like a mouseout code on HTML so the menu will dissapear?
I am trying to make it so that when you double-click in a cell in column A, a message box opens populated with the text string in the corresponding cell (same row) in column Z. Seems to me like it should be easy enough, but despite spending the last hour searching for clues, I can't seem to figure it out.
I have spreadsheet with client names. I'd like to build logic that will open a form with client information when a user double-clicks on the client name. But I have a couple of problems.
- First, I'd like to protect the sheet and hide the formulas. But when I protect the sheet, I get the "the cell or chart you are trying to change is protected" error when I double click the protected cell.
- If I deselect the "Select Locked Cells" options when I protect the sheet, I no longer have the ability to double-click on the cell.
how I can double click on a cell yet not allow the user to edit the cell (or see the formula)?
I don't seem to be able to combine the looping through a set of workbooks with the IsFileOpen function posted by microsoft.
Basically this code works if the foundfile(j) is closed, but if it is already open I cannot activate the foundfile(j) and make it do things.
I'm not posting the ISFileOpen function because already present inside the forum and the rest of the code because it's too long...
With Application.FileSearch .NewSearch ' . ScreenUpdating = False .LookIn = MyPath(40) '* represents wildcard characters .FileType = msoFileTypeExcelWorkbooks If .Execute > 0 Then 'Workbook exists For j = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count If IsFileOpen((.FoundFiles(j))) Then 'neither of these three options work
I have an Excel sheet with about 1,000 rows. Each row has an origin and destination column. Now I need a code that opens a specific website and goes to a specific tab and then search for the origin and destination fields queries. The code then takes each row and place them in the search query. The result from each row can result a valid connection between an origin and a destination OR no connection exists. So simply if connection is successful, the code simply returns "yes" otherwise "no".
I can open the website from Excel, but what I need to click on specific tab where I do my searches. One of the problems I am facing is that when I try to click on the tab I need I get the message that I must use Internet Explorer or Chrome or Mozilla. Although Excel uses Internet Explorer to open the website. I am not sure why this error.
Attached you will find the following:
1 - Few data rows that we need to run the loop on.
2 - A snapshot of the website that we need to input the data from the rows (FOLLOW LINK)
3 A snapshot to show you the tab ("Ocean Schedule") that we need to access after we open the main website in vba. (FOLLOW LINK)
I have a Userform with a textbox in it. The user is asked to enter a serial number and press Enter. When the Enter key is pressed, I would like to search for that serial nember in "SourceWorkbook.xls", Sheet1, in column A (or B). If the Serial number is found it should be placed in "DestinationWorkbook.xls", Sheet1 Cell A1 etc. If no serial number is found I would like to display a message about it it. The workbooks are already opened.

Running into this issue of "transworksheet macros"
I have a master "update" commandbutton on sheet 1. I have two sub "update" buttons on sheet 2 and 3 respectively.
What I would like to do is have the user click the master button, that would "click" the two sub buttons so they run their respective macros on their respective worksheets (within the same worksheet.
I have tried pasting the macro code in the master button, telling it to select the sub worksheet and then run the macro, but the marco runs itself on the master worksheet instead.
