View 7 RepliesI am trying to print the file name as a header and the tab name as a footer automatically when i print an entire workbook. I am following the following steps:
File - Print - Entire Workbook - Preview
once I am in preview, I enter Page Setup and choose custom header (to print file name) and custom footer (to print sheet name). It works on some but not on all of them
It is company policy everytime we get a new client, we create a new worksheet. In the Header Top Left Section we always have "Client Name", In the top middle section we have "Subject" and in the top left Section we have the "User Intials" and " Date".
Finally in the bottom left section of the footer we have "Page of Pages".
Is there anyway i can get the header and footer to automatically update from a certain cell.
Example : B1 - Could contain the clients name, so it automatically is added to all headers on the workbook.
C1: Could contain the subject, so again it automatically updates the headers.
My problem is that the data I want to add to the headers is in another sheet. Is there a way to modify this code.
1. Currently I have an excel sheet with macros that open other workbooks.
2. I select the macro to open a saved workbook. lets call it "apples"
3. I want to modify "apples" footers.
The data to insert in the header is located in my original workbook with the macros in a sheet called names. Here is the code I would like to modify:
Sub Create_Header()
With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
Dim lh_top, cntr_top, rh_top
lh_top = Cells(3, 2)
cntr_top = Cells(6, 2) & vbLf & Cells(7, 2)
rh_top = Cells(4, 2) & " " & Cells(5, 2)
.LeftHeader = lh_top
.CenterHeader = cntr_top
.RightHeader = rh_top
End With
End Sub

I currently have it normally in my worksheet as in within cells at the bottom of the page, but it's hard to keep the same distance from the bottom-right of the page for each for all worksheet.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI've been using the function =vlookup(...) to fill up the cells in my spreadsheet. However, a problem I've come across is that vlookup does not make the values in the cell permanent and keeps drawing whatever value is found in the corresponding cells it searches. Thus if the file it draws it's info from goes missing or is edited, my data also changes accordingly. Therefore I would like to ask if there was a way in which I can make the data permanent in my spreadsheet.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have downloded several versions of the VBA calendar posted either here on or on "hey that's cool" forum (i.e Phil's calendar, Barry's calendar etc, ect), however I could not find the answer for making the calendar stay on the spreadsheet permanently without any triger to initilise the user form.
What I am trying to do is to have an embeded calendar in my worksheet where user can choose different dates and link this to a pivot table date field, so when the date changes pivot table output changes. I managed to do that with excel calendar control tool, however not everybody has the OCX file on their computer.
I have a table that contains +/- 12,000 (A6:R12266) rows and I use several conditional formatting rules to highlight rows where the data changes from the row above in a sorted column for the visual easy of users. The conditional formatting works great however the data is the spreadsheet is constantly being modified and that is where I run into the problem. Whenever a row is inserted or deleted my rule is divided into multiple rules which is tedius to manage and also causes the formatting to appear incorrectly in some cases. I have the table defined as a named table in the name manager and I use that name for the range in the "Applies to" in conditional formatting, but as soon as I choose apply the name is converted to the current range which becomes several seprate rules and ranges as soon as the table is modified.
Formula to define which rows are highlighted
=$F5<>$F6
Range data applis to after chosing the tables name and clicking apply
=$A$6:$R$12266
I am trying to use Excel to document fiber optic cables that run between different locations. Each cable has 2 ends, but whatever service is connected to one end, will also be a the other. I would like to use an Excel worksheet to represent a termination point (a "light shelf" comprised of several fiber optic cables each made up of several strands of fiber (kind of a table with the 1st 4 columns of 6 rows being cable A, and the next 8 cable B)). I would like to be able to type in the value for cable A Strand 1 and have it linked to another worksheet representing a different location (the other end) and vice versa. I have tried to paste a link, but that seems to get broken. Is there a better way to make permanent links (Excel is bawking about a circular reference, which it is as each end needs to be linked back to the other.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a cell that has a result which is the average of a few other cells (In this case the result is in cell Y7). I now want to take that total and put it in another cell to represent todays result..I.E. I have a list of this months dates and I want the todays result to be populated in the table. So I have a list of dates and the cell next to each date has the formula:
=IF(TODAY()=A24,$Y$7,"").
It populates todays result fine however the next day it blanks the result (since the cell is no longer todays date).
SO the question: How to I have todays result oerwite the formula so the result is permanent in that cell. I guess I am looking for some sort of PUT command to take the result and PUT it in another cell without that cell being a formula itself to GET the date.
I extract text into a new column using =Left(). I want to make that column permanent. That is, I want to delete the source column but keep me extracted column. How?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow do i make a formatting rule permanent to certain cell's.
The steps i followed:
I selected the columns and rows to be formatted. in conditional formatting I selected new rule. then selected the second function, "format only cells that contain" in format only cells with: specific Text , then " ending with" Over Issues.
in format i selected the font and fill.
I saved and close the document, after reopening the rule is no longer working.
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 have a macros, which i dont know when i will need to use them.
I need somehow inbuild them into excel to be able use them in every excel start.
I have backwards co-workers that can't figure out how/why to use conditional formatting and have deigned it "not acceptable".
They've requested I fill in a HUGE spreadsheet and change the font color to red if it meets a criteria.
Simple enough to do with a conditional format that compares my data.
HOWEVER, now I need the individual cells to stay red and remove the conditional format (because conditional formatting "confuses" them). Removing the condition causes the color to go back to black. I've tried all sorts of paste specials (formula/format) to no avail...
I'm using excel 2000 and I just noticed something and am unsure how to change. I guess early on my building of a workbook I accidentally left calculation to manual. I would like to change calculations to automatic on permanent basis. I keep changing it and it changes back to manual after I close then reopen the workbook. I would prefer to change permanently to automatic....Any ideas would be a bonus. On all new workbooks I can save in automatic but I cannot change from manual to automatic.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to put a permanent date & time stamp in cell A1 (date) and cell A2 (Time) when cell A3 is populated by any character which would be an inputters initials.
I'm thinking that it will be an "IF" statement but then I am getting confused about how I make it not update when the spreadsheet is opened at a later date and time.
I need it to be like:
=B10 2014
(So the first part changes depending on what B10 is but the 2014 always stays)?
What is the easiest way to have a button added into a certain cell? Basically I have my workbook enter columns into a certain sheet. When a column is added into that sheet, I want to also add a button, that gives the option to delete the column that it is sitting in. I tried to record macros to figure it out, but I didnt have any luck figuring out logic behind the button placement.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am trying to do the following:
901 > 0 pts
851 - 900 gets 1 pts
LOWEST 3 scores gets 2 pts
Example of what i have for the top three
=IF(D8="-",0,IF(RANK(D8,D$8:D$34)<=3,2,IF(D8<79%,0,1)))
I have tried to change it but cant get it to work for the bottom 3 scores.
if its possible to place a value (the product of a formula) into a cell ie:
Cell A1 = "a"
Cell A2 = "b"
I would like to be able to say: If A1="a" and A2="b", then place "Yes" into D1.
I realize that =if(and(a1="a",a2="b"),"Yes",0)
placed in D1 would give the same result, but I do not want to have a formula in D1, I simply want the characters "Yes" placed in there.

I searched the posts and saw reference to saving it as a picture but I am not sure how to go about this. Can I save it as a picture within the excel file? Or does it have to be external. If so, how is this done. And can I do it without interupting what the user is doing on the forms.
