Jul 19, 2013

want a way to find out any special character in text file (.txt).

The .txt file I use is very large about 100 mb to 1GB. I need to find a way to write vba code that asks for input text file and the validates it and gives the message that following special characters are present in the file. Also, it gives their column number and row no's, where they are located.

The characters which needs not treated as special characters are numbers (0-9), alpha (A-Z) and special characters (@,-,%,$,+,=).

Display Server Message To User After POST File Upload

Feb 6, 2014

I'm using VBA to upload the open workbook to app.box URL which is working great! Since I'm pretty new to VBA, I can't figure out how to get Excel to display the sucess/failed message from the server to the user. I used the VBA POST upload module from this awesome tutorial, but I can't figure out how to return the message to the user. I did figure out that on the website there is an "id="after_upload_message", not sure if that works. My code is below.

VBA Runs In One Worksheet But Not Another

Dec 31, 2013

I wrote this VBA for a particular sheet:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Range("H5") = "Y" Then
Columns("L").EntireColumn.Hidden = True
Else
Columns("L").EntireColumn.Hidden = False
End If
End Sub

If the value of H5 is "Y" it hides column "L". It was working fine at one time. Then I wrote a bunch of UDF's at the workbook module level. I then went back it use the "hide" function and it didn't work.

I created a couple new worksheets in the same workbook, and the same VBA works fine on them. I created a copy of the "non-working" worksheet and added the VBA to the copied sheet and it fails to work.

If I create an error in the VBA (like: Column("L").EntireColumn.Hidden = True), I get an error when I change the (non-working) worksheet - so I know it is "trying to run", at least sort of.

UDF #value! Error When VBA Runs

Jun 9, 2009

I have written a number of UDFs, which work fine in my spreadsheet. Two of these are more complex, and I'm having a few problems...

When I run any VBA routine (i.e. control passed to VB), these two UDFs return #VALUE! errors, but I can't see why. As these are Functions, I can't think of a way to test where the error is being generated, like I would in a Sub

When I return to Excel, any recalculation fixes the problem, which makes me think something is declared incorrectly. All named cell references relate to other VBA functions, calling the relevant row / column numbers, and I think these are all correct. I've tried removing AS INTEGER etc, to avoid type mismatches, and adding APPLICATION in front of worksheetfunction...

Function precedentStart(Target As Range) As Integer
Application.Volatile
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("sheet1")
Dim splitPrecedent As Variant, lookupI As Integer, rowI As Integer

precedentStart = .Cells(Target.Row, colOrigStart).Value
splitPrecedent = Split(Target.Text, ",")

For i = LBound(splitPrecedent) To UBound(splitPrecedent)
rowI = WorksheetFunction.Match(splitPrecedent(i), .Range("schedRefs"), 0)
lookupI = .Cells(rowI, colAdjEnd).Value
If lookupI > precedentStart Then precedentStart = lookupI
Next i
End With
End Function

Macro Only Runs Once

Nov 28, 2009

I can't seem to find an answer for this, but as an alternative, on Worksheet Activate the code runs and places a 1 in Range("A1") and therefore the next time the macro will not run.

This works fine for me, but just thinking if somebody who doesn't know why the one is in A1 and deletes it this macro will run again on sheet activate.

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Dim LR As Long
Dim rng As Range

If Sheets("Charts").Range("A1").Value = 1 Then Exit Sub

LR = Sheets("POD").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row

With Sheets("Charts")
.Range("I129").FormulaR1C1 = "=ROWS(R1C1:R[-128]C[-8])"
Set rng = .Range("A129").Resize(, 10)
rng.Copy rng.Resize(LR - 4)...............

Spreadsheet Runs Slow..?

Dec 12, 2008

I created this spreadsheet to assist with pricing for my towing company. I struggled with getting the dropdown lists and combo boxes to work, and I created and deleted many of them before I got it to work like I wanted, but I think I left a mess. It runs slow, showing a delay when I click on different radio buttons, and there is an exclamation point in the Excel icon in the file directory. Could someone take a look in the code structure and tell me if there are any opportunities to clean it up. RateCalcApp.xlsm

Excel Runs Out Of Memory

Jun 10, 2014

I have a macro which filters data on one sheet and copies that data onto 34 new sheets . This works perfectly until the 25th pass when Excel advises that there is insufficient memory to continue. I assumed that this was connected to the clipboard and its ability to remember 24 chunks of data so I turned it off but still Excel gave up at the 25th pass. Is there a way that I can clear the clipboard during the macro's execution or is there something else going on?

VBA On Error Goto Only Runs Once

Dec 23, 2006

why the On Error GoTo statement only executes the first time an error occurs in the following
On Error GoTo CubeNotFound
For x = 2 To TotalRecords

Cells.Find(What:=WSID, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate

'Other actions are located here, but have been removed. These actions take place if the Find is succesful.

CubeNotFound:
Message = MsgBox("WS ID " & WSID & " was not found! Excel will continue with the next WS ID.", vbOKOnly, "WS ID NOT FOUND")

Next x

I have that statement there because if WS ID is not found then VB generates an error that the user won't be able to interpret, and also stops the code. I want VB to continue to the next record if one is not found.

Macro Only Runs Manually

Feb 5, 2008

Running Windows XP; Excel 2003

I have a fairly simply macro.

It copies certain sheets out of a workbook (for a new workbook)
Unprotect the sheets in the new workbook
Deletes a particular cell on each sheet
Unhides a sheet
Sets all of the new worksheets to normal view
Protects the new sheets
Lets the user save and name the new workbook.

All is working fine Except it will not change the new workbook from Page Break View to Normal view.

The code I'm using = Sheets("name").Activate
Activewindow.View=xlNormal

Here's the strangest part. When I run the macro from a command button, the newly created workbook retains the page break view (as is in the original).

When I run the macro line by line via F8, IT WORKS JUST FINE

I have created a macro in xl2000 which was working fine - although through corporate upgrades my machine has now been upgraded with xl2003 and the macro runs for a bit and then crashes on the code below, although it only highlights teh 'rnum'

rnum = ActiveCell.Row
Is there a difference between xl2000 & xl2003?

Progress Bar When Macros Runs

Jun 30, 2009

I want to display a progress bar for when those macros are run. I've read many different ways to do this when I search it on google but I would prefer to use the cleanest method where I can simply call the appropriate procedure for each different macro, without changing any of the other code of the progress bar.

Module Runs On One Computer But Not On Another

Aug 12, 2009

I wrote some code that runs with no problem on my computer as well as another coworkers computer, but will not work on a 2nd coworker's computer. The "subscript out of range" error shows up at the point when the EMInput worksheet in the EMInput workbook is copied to the new workbook called "Out of Plane Section Cuts" (SEE BELOW). Is there an option in EXCEL or somewhere that could affect this. I don't see why you would get a subscript out of range error since the EMInput workbook is open....

Animation While Query Runs

Aug 4, 2007

I have an Excel workbook which runs a query via DAO against an Access database. The query usually takes about 6-7 seconds. Id like to do some animation while the query is running. My animation is just a simple Autoshape that I rotate (1 degree at a time) in a loop. Is there a way I can excecute my query and then continue to run my code while the query is excecuting?

VBA Runs Only Valid URL Addresses From Range

Mar 10, 2013

Website has a URL where the last element is a number within a range (e.g. 1000 - 4000).

But the numbers are not sequential (e.g there are 100 pages, first URL ends "1001", last one ends "6000".

As shown below I set the code to cycle through every possible number:

VB:

For i = 1001 To 6000
With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"URL;http://(whatever)" & i _
, Destination:="(Whichever cell the output starts in)"

Not the most constructive use of the national grid.

Is there a VBA that can check whether the URL "number" is genuine before doing anything else - and move straight to the next "i" if it doesn't exist?

Function Runs Within Workbook But Not As AddIn

Feb 6, 2014

When running the following code for NSLookup in a module within the current workbook, it runs fine but when I put it in a XLAM file and try and use it as an addin I only get #NAME? as a result. I believe that that addin is installed properly because I have a second module with a sub routine in it (GetIPStatus) that is working, and when entering the command =NSLookup(A2) in a cell it shows up properly like it's an available function, but it does not seem to execute. Do I have to do anything special for a function to run as an addin?
