May 21, 2009I have set up some cells with formulas to be worked out in the future. But the #VALUE! error message appears because there is nothing to work out yet! I've attached the sheet

View 5 Repliesevery time i choose Action X, i have a series of warning messageboxes appear. i want to run some code so that default option for each message box is selected every time a message box appears. this way i don't need to press Enter every time for each message box.

I am trying to add together two figs which are linked to calculations which have formula built in to stop error messages when there is a 0 / 0 = #value type error. However when these two cells are added, if the cells are blank I get an error message. And if only one cell has a value, I get "" with my existing formula. what I need to do to get a result of 7 if for example cell A4 = "" + B4 =7. At the moment my formula shows "" in the sum total of these cells
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've been setting the above property to TRUE after making some changes in the Workbook_open event in order to stop annoying messages if you haven't physically made changes.
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to copy through to the workbook_beforeclose event and I'm being asked if I want to save changes even though the macro made the changes and then set the property.
Here's my code for the open event :-
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
On Error Resume Next
For counter = Worksheets.Count To 2 Step -1
Sheets(counter).Visible = xlVeryHidden
Next
Sheets("Desktop").Visible = True
Sheets(1).Visible = xlVeryHidden.....
how do u add error message, so that if you do not put the correct type of value in a input box and a error message should come for you to re do it again
error message should not take letters, signs etc onli numbers and if number 0 is entered it should stopped.
if it is at all possible (and if so, how) to CREATE your own error message in Microsoft Excel.
Basicaly, I am wanting to create an error message if two cells' figures do not match up.
Is there a way to disable all error pop up messages from coming up due to an invalid entry in a cell that has data validation? So when a user types in a value, it doesn't pop up saying "retry, cancel, etc"? Just to save time and make it more user friendly, it would be nice to just dis-allow the entry, so when someone types an incorrect entry it just erases it or stays on the cell and keeps it highlighted but doesn't let you click away...something like that. This would be applied to the whole workbook and is for XL07.

Is there a way that I could put up an error message if the total is not 720 in that cell when someone tries to save the worksheet?
Or maybe for eg, cell A1 does not add up to 720, if they then try and move on to cell A50, the message would appear then?
I'm guessing this is not (easily) possible, but I thought I might just ask in case: Can we change the messages in VBA run-time errors displayed by Excel. Better yet, I would like to avoid the Excel generated error box, and just have a text message written into a particular cell.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet which is linked to several other worksheets. I have managed to include formulas to count how many cells have numbers between 101 and 5000 by using this formula -
=sum((h2:h500>=101)*(h2:h500<=5000))
but now I want to count the number of cells in another worksheet that are equal to or less than zero. When I use the same formula as above it counts all the blank cells. I have tried using a countblank formula and then deducting this from the result, but unless the other worksheet is open the countblank formula does not work.
I have a workbook that takes a long time to calculate. A lot of the values are interrelated and if there is an error in one of the primary formulas, it will propagate through the whole worksheet. It then takes a while to find the error and after I correct it, I then have to go through the whole calculation process again. Is there a way to have Excel stop calculation when it first finds an error?

Adding msgbox to stop error
i have came up with its simple code
The attached file contains hypothetical data on a basketball player's success from the free throw line. It lists the number of free throws attempted and the number made and then divides the number made by the number attempted to calculate the free throw percentage. However, I keep getting a # DIV/0! error in the games free throws weren't taken. How do I write the code so that when the error occurs, a message is displayed to the effect that no percentage can be reported because no free throws were attempted by checking the cell in column D? How do I use the IsError function to figure this out?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got the following code as part of a userform
Private Sub cmbPlant_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
If cmbPlant.MatchFound = False Then
cmbPlant.BackColor = &HC0&
If MsgBox("Required!" & vbNewLine & "Please Select Correct Plant Number", vbOKOnly + vbExclamation, "Plant Number") = vbCancel Then Exit Sub
Cancel = True
Else
cmbPlant.BackColor = &H80000005
End If
End Sub
I also have a cancel button
Private Sub cmdCancel_Click()
If MsgBox(" Cancelling Will Clear This Form." & vbNewLine & " No Data Will Be Entered." & vbNewLine & "Are You Sure You Wish To Cancel?", vbYesNo + vbQuestion, "Cancel Data Entry") = vbNo Then Exit Sub
Unload Me
End Sub
If someone clicks the cancel button before using the plant # combo, the form closes, but the cmbplant_exit msgbox pops up too.
I have wrote a simple macro/ function that used to work before I decided to improve it. When I run the macro, I can step F8 until the before last line in the following code
Function bla() As Boolean
Set rCell = Cells(1, 1)
If rCell.Value <> "" Then
x = rCell.Value * 0.02 'Works
rCell.Value = rCell.Value - x 'Doesn't work
End If
bla = False
End Function
Excel does stop running the macro, but it doesn't show any error so I don't know what to fix.
Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Create new Excel document
2. Type any number in the very first cell
3. Open VBA, add module and copy above function
4. Type in another cell "=bla()"
I am using this code to make a new folder however if the folder already exists it gives me an Error 75.
Code:
Private Sub CreateFullFolder_Click()
'FIlE address needs to be changed
ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Details").Activate
MkDir ("C:UsersDennisDesktopPartnering Contractors LTD" & Range("B12").Value)
End Sub
I wonder how I am supposed to do to stop excel from returning the error message "Runtime error 13" when pressing the cancel button on a Inputbox.

I have a Macro that opens numerous excel files.
What code do I require to cancel the startup message?
ie. The message that displays "Disable / Enable Macros" (security setting cannot be changed, so message is always displayed).
Plus I then have some startup message boxes which I manually click OK to continue, but how do I cancel this messages using VBA Code?
Is there a way to turn off those annoying error message boxes that pop-up when a line of code is incorrect? I pretty frequently go to another area of code to grab some previous code to copy and paste, and the error message box pops-up, so I have to hit OK to close it. It would be nice if it still highlighted the problem red, but I'd even give that up for those boxes to go away.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a more user friendly (and easily updated) gantt chart for marketing campaigns running throughout the year. The difficulty is that we have approximately 100 products and each product can have anything up to 20 campaigns per year (never overlap, though, fortunately).
Campaign data is on one row per product in columns B:CC (each campaign consists of start date, end date, name and volume) but these are hidden from the user. The conditionally formatted chart runs from CD2:QD108 and is predominantly based on the start and end dates.
When any coloured cell is selected I want the relevant campaign name to be displayed, like a data validation message.

I have set up a macro that opens a set of about 20 excel files, one at a time,and then copies select sheets, and then pastes into a different main spreadsheet. After each sheet is opened and copied/pasted, I close it out and open the next one. My problem is I keep having to click through messages while the macro is running. I encounter the following messages:
1. Do you want to save (file that I opened and copied from)?
2. The formula or sheet that you want to copy contains the name "asdf.." which already exists on the destination worksheet. Do you want to use this version of the name?
3. A box comes up that says update values from this file:
4. There is a large amount of information on the clipboard. Do you want to be able to post this information into the clipboard later?
I would rather ignore all of these message boxes, but my answers to them are as follows:
1. No i do not want to save
2. Yes I want to use that version of the name
3. I want to select cancel out of this
4. No i do not want to be able to post that information.
Is there any way I can automate this?
