Quick Replace On Many Tabs


I have two spreadsheets, each with about 50-60 separate worksheets in them, and each spreadsheet has simarly named tabs. I am trying to replace the values in column Q on spreadsheet 2, and move them to column O on spreadsheet 1, on each worksheet.

Is there a way to do this quickly, or will I have to copy-paste many times over?

Creating A Quick Label
I am doing a "Lost and found" spreadsheet project for a hotel.

Each row contains the lost items with all the necessary info in separate cells (Room nr, found by, reference nr, client name, etc)

Every item is being bagged and then a label is put on it. ( has the same information but its just arranged prperly. (Like a label )

What I would like to do is to have a column in each row that has a "print" button. What would happen is that the macro would create a label in sheet2, print it on the default printer and then erase everything on sheet2. (I am kind of new to macros so I dont even know if I need to use the sheet 2 for it).

I have already done a kind of a template for the label and set it up on sheet2. I would probably manage to get the print function working with the online tutorials(if not i'll be back) but can't figure out how to do the first bit of it.

Recursion (Quick Sort)
I've been having a play with sorting integers in A1:I1 (because that was the example in Wikipedia). I've got some code that kind of works, but the recursion is entirely manual.

(I know it's only a mickey mouse example, and no practical use!)

Sub quicksort()
Dim iPivotIndex As Integer, iPivotValue As Integer, iTempValue As Integer, iStoreIndex As Integer, i As Integer
Dim iStartNumber As Integer, iEndNumber As Integer

'how do I give it the original iStartNumber and iEndNumber
iStartNumber = InputBox("Start")
iEndNumber = InputBox("end")........................................

Quick Auto-Numbering
Auto-Numbering

just an example:-

56
57
58
59
60

The Column above is the first column on a selected sheet.

i will select 56 and from there (End-Shift+Down arrow) which selects all the values from 56-60...

My question is from here on if there is a shortcut key or 'vba macro' that can autonumber from 1.

Thus giving output result of..

1
2
3
4
5

i want to record the solution for above problem in a macro recorder for different numbers that is why i have to do (End-Shift+Down arrow)

I found a way to find and replace, but I not sure how to use it with qoutes.

Quick "msgbox" Question (Visual Basic) / Allow User To Respond With Text ? []
I have searched the 'net and read MSDN msgbox but I cant find what I am looking for. Maybe msgbox is not the correct function to be focusing on?? I want a message box to ask a question, and the answer is dumped into a variable, much like you can do with yes/no/cancel, but (much like a pop-up textbox) I want to be able to respond with text in a textbox. [This of course is part of my Excel spreadsheet]
(I think with C++ it was something like "msgbox = ?$-" or something like that, but I don't know what to look for with VB.)

Find, Replace With And Then Replace Adjacent Cell
I am trying to create a macro where it finds a a certain word in a column for example C. What i want it to do is find anything that says FWD_EUR and then replace that cell (e.g C2) with CASH_EUR_FWD and after it has done that it replaces the adjacent cell (e.g. D2) with EUR_FWD. I then want this to do the same with FWD_USD to CASH_USD_FWD and adjacent cell to USD_FWD.

Old Tabs Not Behaving Like New Tabs
I'm using Excel '03SP2 on Win 2000sp4. I believe I have a case where old tabs originally written in Excel ' 97 behave differently than new tabs in the same workbook, which is saved in 2003 format.

Specifically, the formula ="PLAN" & budyr-1 where budyr is a named range on a different tab containing 2008 . This formula yields PLAN 2007 on a new tab and #VALUE! on an old tab.

How do I get Excel to update the old tabs so that they behave as Excel 2003 tabs?

Moving To Certain Tabs
I have created a simple button that I want to take me to a certain number of tabs.
I have about 24 tabs. I can't see them all. I create a button that will take me to a specific tab from my main page. This works fine till I rename the tab. I want the code to read a sheet number or something like that instead of the specific name.

Sheets("JobList").Select
Range("A8").Select
This works till i change the name "JobList"

New Tabs From List
I have in column M ( starting at M2 and going through to M273 ) a list of names I wish to have new Tabs automatically made for.

There are some cells in this column that are blank and therefore have no name.

I need each new Tab to be a copy of a template sheet called 'DataTemplate'.

I am currently using the following formula, and I have it pasted in the sheet code of the worksheet where the list is found ....

Sub test()
Dim r As Range
On Error Resume Next
For Each r In Range("m2", Range("m" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
If r.Value "" Then
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Sheets(r.Value).Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Sheets.Add.Name = r.Value
End If
Next r
End Sub

However, the new Tabs are not being generated. I've tried saving the file, exiting and coming back in, but still no new Tabs.

What am I doing incorrectly ?

I have double-check the tools option and verified the correct box is check to view tabs, however, I can't view the tabs. I tried to color a tab and it colored it red, but I can't really view the tab. I can see a red line underneath the directional arrows when I am working on that particular worksheet, but again, I can't view/click on the tab.

Naming Tabs ...
To automatically make the name of a sheet tab the same as in cell A8 of the same sheet, I'm currently using the following code ...

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error Resume Next
ActiveSheet.Name = Range("A8")
End Sub

however, I find that if I change the name that is in cell A8, the tab name doesn't change accordingly.

I need a code that will name the tab whatever is in cell A8 but also be fluid enough to change the tab name if the contents of cell A8 changes.

I do not want this code to operate all sheets, but only a few.

Cloning Across Tabs
I got a excel file with quite some tabs. And i have 2 questions about it.

1 is it possible to "clone" a button with some macro? Lets say i create a button with a macro on tab number 1, is it possible to clone the button onto the 50 other tabs so i dont have to add the button 50 times?

2 i have a value on tab1, how can i make a formula (on tab number 2) that simple says: previoustab A1 + 2. So when in tab1 A1 i have 1, the cell in tab2 would give 3?

I know i can refer to a tab in a formula, but is there a way to just refer to the "previous" tab instead of using the tab name?

Formula Across Tabs
I have a workbook with roughly 100 tabs and a summary tab for the data within the 100 other tabs. on the summary tab I have column A with the name of each tab, i would like to copy a formula down column B that pulls the data from each tab on cell C5 for example, maybe even look up other info too, but that is another question.

What i need to know is can i write a formula that uses the tab named in column A and pulls the cell C5 from that named tab without having to manually change the name of each tab in the formula?

The basic formula would be ='17003.05'!C5 however since i have 100 tabs, i did not want to have to go in and edit each tab name.

Workbook With Several Tabs
I have a workbook with several tabs. The top tab is the main spreadsheet
were I enter all my gathered data. The other tabs are the same spreadsheet,
the same data, but broken out by specific building.

Right now, I enter the data (alpha and numeric) into the main spreadsheet,
then manually copy/paste it to the respective sub-level spreadsheet.

I can specify the "IF" part of the line item that would identify which sheet
to copy it to, but is it possible to have a "THEN copy and paste [these
cells]" to the other spreadsheets?

Rename All Tabs In Workbook
I have a workbook that pulls in data from other sources and contains 15 linked sheets. The data changes when different criteria is selected in the first sheet. The first 2 sheets are summary sheets and the tabs are named correctly.

I would like to be able to rename the remaining 13 tabs using labels found in the cells in the first sheet. These tabs should update or change when the first sheet is manually recalculated (F9).

I have used ActiveSheet.Name=Range("A1") but it doesn't apply in this case. Is there a macro that could run with something like Sheet1.Name=Range("A1"), Sheet2.Name=Range("A2"), Sheet3.Name=Range("A3"), etc.... or maybe something in each sheet that would change the name of the tab to a specific name off sheet 1 when the whole workbook is recalculated?

Sheet Tabs Count
I know excel has a built in function for this. But it won't do what I need for this below.

Say, I have 9 worksheets open. In cell N7 on sheet 1 I need it to count the worksheet tabs.
But the dilema is to only count the tabs that will equal sheet 1, sheet 2, sheet 3, sheet 4, sheet 5, Notice, I have a space before the number. Other sheets have a specific names to them which I do not want to count.

So if sheets 1 thru 3 are visible with the other named sheets visible cell N7 will count 3
