Stopping Screen Flicker Due To ComboBox
Jan 12, 2010
I'm having a problem with the screen flickering whenever a different cell is selected due to a ComboBox. I searched the forums and wasn't able to find any code that helped my problem. The fact that I wouldn't know where to insert the proper code to fix it even if I could find it doesn't help. That's why I assume the "optional code" listed at the end that I found online does not work properly because it probably isn't in the right spot. Here's the

I have three sheets that I use in my 2003 VBA program: Sheet_Source, Sheet_Destination, Sheet_Status. I'd like to have the Sheet_Status keep focus while in the background information is being copied from Sheet_Source to Sheet_Destination. On Sheet_Status, I have progress boxes checked off as the program goes through its stages.
I do have a working program; however, as the program executes, the screen keeps jumping from one sheet to the next as the copying back and forth is being done.

I have a userform that opens a woorkbook and fills some textbox from that woorkbook. Although that it goes very fast it is still visible (sometime just in the toolbar) and flickers the screen. Is it possible to open it "hidden"?
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
On Error Resume Next
Workbooks("Kontrollsystemet.xls").Close SaveChanges:=False
Workbooks.Open "V:allaBeredningKontrollsystemetKontrollsystemet.xls", ReadOnly:=True
Sheets("Calc").Activate
Label4 = Range("K7")
Label5 = Range("L7")
Workbooks("Kontrollsystemet.xls").Close SaveChanges:=False
Caption = Now
TextBox1.SetFocus
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

I attached 2 examples. The first one is before the screen flickering fix I got from Andy Pope. The second is when I added the fix. When you open Example List 1 and you enter 0 at E180, the screen will flicker, but it will change (red) Watching to (green) Planning to Watch in G180.
When you open Example List 2 and you enter 0 at E180, the screen doesn't flicker anymore. The status Watching in G180 still changes to Planning to Watch, but it stays red while it has to become green. How can I have the color changes and no screen flickering? Marco:

I have a VBA code that copy data from multiple files into my workbook.
I find the first file, copy the ranges I need into my workbook and continue to the next file until all files are done.
The copy operation in each file is - row by row - because I need to ask questions about each row.
As you understand - what the user sees is a flickering window because I activate the source workbbok -> copy the data -> activate this workbook-> paste the data.
I want to avoid the flickering.
An acceptable solution could be to generate a pop up message box that will say "data is being copied. Pleasd wait while operation is completed". BUT - I don't know how to identify that the action is done and message box can be closed.

A good number of years ago I used a line of code at the beginning and the end of a macro to keep the spreadsheet from moving until the macro was finished. At the close it moved if a movement was necessary.

In my application threr are command buttons. it is required that as the user place the mouse pointer on the button a tool tip should be displayed which describes the functionality of the button. i have used a lable and its default visibility is set as false. In the mouse move event of the buttons i am making the visibility of the level true. Its working fine but my problem is due to mouse move all the buttons and an image in the sheet flikers. so how to avoid the flikering? Is there any other method to display the tool tip with out using the mouse move event.

how to quit this Do and For loop:
This simple coding should repeat this four times:
first ask user to input data in Textbox2.Text and then Textbox3.Text until user presses Cancel. --> x 4
But it don't seem to exit the Do Loop
For j = 1 To 4
i = 1
Data1 = TextBox2.Text
Cells(i, j).Value = Data1

If Cells(i, j).Value <> "" Then

In my main macro I have a line that makes it jump into a timer subroutine that starts the main macro every 30 seconds. However, I also have a line in the main macro that makes it jump into another subroutine at 2pm everyday that sends out emails. The problem is that if the timer starts the main macro again before the sending emails subroutine finishes, then it will only finish sending a portion of the emails before it jumps back into the main macro. Is there any way to stop my main macro once it recognizes that it needs to jump into the email sending subroutine, or a way to at least stop the timer subroutine?
the part of my code the jump into the sending emails subroutine and the timer subroutine look like this so far:
If timevalue(now()) >= timevalue("14:00:00") And timevalue(now()) < timevalue("14:00:31") _
Then DAILY_REPORT
End If
StartTimer

I am using a code to transfer data from one sheet to another using the VBA below. The only problem I am having is it is copying the conditional formatting as well which I don't want it to do as it is already set up in the sheet it is copying to. How can I stop this?
Code:
Sub MONTHLY_UPDATE_TextBox2_Click()Dim rRehab As Long, i As Long
Dim wsRehab As Worksheet
Set wsRehab = Worksheets("AUG")

I have event procedures for the following form events: Before update, After Update, On Open, On Load and On Activate and I have added a breakpoint to every event.
However, despite breakpoints in all these pieces of code the form opens and closes without the code stopping to allow me to debug by manually stepping through the code.
Have I done something fundamentally wrong, I'm still a newbie at VBA?

I have written the macro;
Sub
For i = 2 To FinalRow
If Cells(i, 1).Value = Range("A1") Then
Cells(i, 1).Select
End If
Next i
End Sub
And I was wondering if there was a way to end the Sub as soon as it gets to the Cell with the “A1” value in it as opposed to just continuing through all the rows to the end of the sheet even after the right value has been found?

I am running a timer in XL using the Application .OnTime Method.
Everywhere I've looked tells me that the procedure to stop the timer is
Sub StopTimer()
On Error Resume Next
Application.OnTime earliesttime:=RunWhen, procedure:=cRunWhat, schedule:=False
End Sub
I have this code in with the timer, but when I hit F5 or go to Tools--->Macros--> and Run the StopTimer Macro the timer just keeps running.
how I can properly call this procedure and stop the timer?

I have the following VBA in the attatched spreadsheet (seperated so I could upload)
The only problem that I have is that I cannot stop the loop, it constantly keeps going round in a circle.
What im wanting to do is when the Date checked is the End date and the End Time has been checked, to move onto the next row and do it again until it gets to row 40.
Sub Calculate()
Dim CellNo As Integer
Dim CurrentDate As Date
Dim StartDate As Date
Dim EndDate As Date
Dim theDate As String
Dim c As Range
Dim i As Integer
Dim addDate As Integer
Dim DaysHoursSick As Date
Dim StartWorkTime As Date
Dim EndWorkTime As Date
Dim endmarker As String
I've only got this VBA working really under Wednesday so I can make sure it is right before adding it onto the other dates,

I'm using Application OnTime to fire a procedure every 30 mins. It works great, but the workbook tries to reopen itself when i close it (but not if i close excel entirely). I assume this is because I haven't stopped it anywhere. So I put a call to a procedure that has: Application.OnTime RunWhen, cRunWhat, , False
In the "Workbook_BeforeClose" event. This doesn't solve the problem. What am I missing?
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
StopTimer
End Sub
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
StartTimer
End Sub
(module1)
Public RunWhen As Double
Public Const cRunIntervalSeconds = 1800 ' thirty mins
Public Const cRunWhat = "dothis"...............................

I am looking to stop the user saving the sheet if certain fields are not complete.
The sheet has headers on line 4 and runs from A4 to M500
In the M cells there is a counta function to check the records are complete.
M4:M500 shows either
Complete - All records comlpete
Incomplete - something missing
Blank - nothing entered yet.
What i want to do is, if one of the cells in M shows incomplete not allow them to save the sheet until its complete.
I tried the folowing (was my attempt to modify another post)

I am trying to stop this code from re-occurring at the end of the spreadsheet. There are two constants that will always appear as text, one is "blank" and the other is "Grand Total". I would prefer to use "Blank" if possible. The spread sheet varies in size from day to day. I have a range right now in use up to A700. I did this because when I originally put in a column formula, it ran until 20000 + rows down. Can someone please provide me with a formula that stops this code once it reaches the bottom of my spread sheet?

Is there a way in which I can get excel not to run any formulas until I run some sort of command or click a button in order to tell it to?
For example, I have two sheets, one sheet has raw data entered manually into each cell, the other sheet has a large amount of formulas to calculate totals from this raw data. But every time a number is entered into a cell in the raw data sheet Excel says 'Calculating Cells', I want to be able to enter all my raw data, then go to my totals sheet and execute all my formulas.

I've modified some code to perform a loop which creates a new worksheet for each item in a pivot table Page By field (EmpName), copying and pasting values for the displayed pivot table with each name selected. Everything is working fine until it gets done with the last item in the list, at which point I get a Run Time Error 1004, "Unable to Get Properties of the Worksheet Class".
I want the MsgBox to pop up at the end, stating how many sheets have been added.
Sub Loop_PivotItems()
'Turn off screen updating
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
'Store the sheet with the Pivot Table
Piv_Sht = ActiveSheet.Name
'Loop through every PivotItem in the PageField (Filter) of the Pivot Table

I have a very simple userform that i'm using to allow users to name their 'location'
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
ActiveWorkbook.Unprotect
If Me.TextBox1.Value = "" Then
Beep
MsgBox "Please give your location a name"
TextBox1.SetFocus
Else
Sheets("Template").Visible = True
Sheets("Template").Copy Before:=Sheets(1)
ActiveSheet.Name = TextBox1.Value
Sheets("Template").Visible = False
ActiveWorkbook.Protect
Unload Location
End If
End Sub
As i'm sure you've already guessed, there is nothing stopping a user from trying to rename the new sheet with an existing name. Is there anyway of checking the entry and workbook for duplicated enteries?

I have a cell which references another cell (i.e. =A2). When I insert a cell above A2 the new formula becomes =A3. How do I stop it from changing?
I want to insert as many cells as I want above A2 and the cell reference will always be =A2. I played around with $'s but to no avail.

Everytime that I insert a row into a worksheet which a number of formulae refer to, those formulae get updated automatically in such a way that it is not in my favour.
The formulae refer to rows 2:2000 on a number of different columns. Adding a new row shifts the references to 3:2001. I presume that I can stop this from happening
Example:
= SUMPRODUCT(('List of DD Donors'!E2:E2000)*('List of DD Donors'!F2:F2000='DD Tally'!E6)*IF(DATEDIF(('List of DD Donors'!G2:G2000)-1,DATE(2006,3,31),"m")>12,12,DATEDIF(('List of DD Donors'!G2:G2000)-1,DATE(2006,3,31),"m")))
changes to...
=SUMPRODUCT(('List of DD Donors'!E3:E2001)*('List of DD Donors'!F3:F2001='DD Tally'!E6)*IF(DATEDIF(('List of DD Donors'!G3:G2001)-1,DATE(2006,3,31),"m")>12,12,DATEDIF(('List of DD Donors'!G3:G2001)-1,DATE(2006,3,31),"m")))

I've wriiten the following routine :

' Unhides all columns prior to saving
ActiveSheet. Unprotect password:="test"
Cells.Select
Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = False
Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True, password:="test"
Response = MsgBox("Have you considered all the items on the checklist?", vbYesNo)
If Response = vbYes Then
Go_To_Checkbox
I want the routine to stop without saving (after running Go_To_Checkbox) if the answer to "Have you ticked the checklist checkbox?" is 'No'. I know the 'Stop' function will do it but I just want to exit the routine without saving, rather than the routine stopping and calling up the Visual Basic editor.
