Switching Languages
Nov 25, 2006Working for a dutch company and using a lot of excel and access it is sometimes a pain that when you are looking for functions. for example "left(b3;3)" in dutch is "links(b3;3)" now this is an easy one but some are hard to guess.
I wrote some neat code which condionally formats cell's in an Excel range and dependend on a value in column "Q" (= status) then sets the color of the field. it works fine
However when working with an english version of Excel I need to use "left" instead of "links"
how to check the local settings for Excel?
[code]
'Conditional Format status cell's
.Range("G4:P" & (xRcount + 3)).Interior.ColorIndex = 4
iRow = 4
iRow2 = 4
SWITCHING BETWEEN FORMULAS
Apr 22, 2007I am trying to figure out commissions with 3 different commission structures depending on type of product. So on C2 I have a drop down box with the 3 types of products. So what I would like to do is when C2 shows say "New" I want it to calculate using one formula. When "used" is selected, I want to use a different formula. And when "scratch_dent" is used, I want it to use a 3rd formula.
Switching Between 2 Workbooks
Jun 12, 2007From a workbook, I need to open a further workbook called 'transfer' and then switch back to the original workbook. Presumably I need to save the current workbook name to a variable, open transfer with Workbooks.Open Filename:="c:debworkTRANSFER.xls"
then switch back to the original
How do i pass the original workbook name to a variable, and then reactivate it. I have tried numerous options but just cannot get it to work. Do i reactivate with workbook. activate or windows.activate
Prevent Tab Switching
Feb 11, 2008I made up a small subprocedure that searches through a large list of zipcodes (These zipcodes are in a separate sheet). Whenever I execute my subprocedure in another sheet, it jumps to the zipcode sheet and then goes back to where I originally executed the subprocedure.
Is there any way that I can prevent the sheets from switching back and forth?
US/UK Date Switching
Sep 30, 2009I want the people filling in the form to put the date into a box. I did have a calendar box but this wouldn't work on a lot of PCs , so I've switched it for three combo boxes, Day-Month-Year.
I've got the 'Add' button to put it all together - DayBox.Value & "/" & MonthBox.Value etc
This seemed to work fine and excel processes this as a date. It automatically switches to the US date format (MM/DD/YYYY) which would be fine as users don't see it and I know it's at least consistent.
But it's not.
1st August 2009 = 08/01/2009 (ie MM/DD/YYYY)
13th August 2009 = 13/08/2009 (ie DD/MM/YYYY)
And while I can format cell to show me the month name in the first example, the 13/08/2009 refuses to change format even though it's recognised as a date.
Switching Between Workbooks
Oct 7, 2006I'm trying to write a piece of VBA code which will switch back and forth between 2 workbooks, but I was hoping that I would not have to name both workbooks in my code.
So far I have been able to name the second file as a variable, open it and copy the data I need, but I now need to switch back to the original file. Is there any way of doing this without hard coding the file name?

Switching Between Multiple Spreadsheets
Oct 23, 2007I'm having a problem with how excel opens my files. Up until yesterday when I would open any of my spreadsheets they would open seperately. I would have multiple files open across my taskbar and could easily switch between files with a simple Alt-tab windows function.
Now when I open multiple excel files it opens them under "one" file so to speak. The only way to switch between files is if I go to Window>then select the file I want or minimize within excel so I can see the other spreadsheets.

I can get it to the end result using sendkeys, but I am trying to have it switch back to the Storm application so the user does not need to close it manually.

Switching Between Opened Workbooks
May 9, 2007I have 3 workbooks open, the main WB has my command button + code in it, and the other 2 were opened up using the existing code in my main workbook.
Using general code e.g( Thisworkbook, activeworkbook, workbooks(1)), how can I activate one out of the 3?
I know the main workbook can be accessed using "thisworkbook", but when I activate it, I can't activate one of the others in my next line of code using activeworkbook.activate, or workbooks(1).activate.

Switching Page Numbers During XML Import Using VBA
Aug 4, 2012I've been programming my VBA script to import data from an XML file which looks like this:
HTML Code:
<response responseStatus="success"> <result xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"xsi:type="apiPagination"> <currentPage>1</currentPage> <list xsi:type="apiReport"> <Variable1>Name1</Variable1> <Variable2>41</Variable2> </list> <list xsi:type="apiReport"> <Variable1>Name2</Variable1> <Variable2>20</Variable2> </list>
So far everything works great and it imports everything correctly to Excel 2010. This is the code I'm using:
Code:
Sub test()
Dim WS As Worksheet: Set WS = ActiveSheet
Dim req As New XMLHTTP
Dim Link As String
Dim PageNumber As Integer
Dim Url As String
PageNumber = 1
[code].....
The problem is that I only import page1 (only link [URL])
How do I get all URLs so that it also imports the data located on other pagenumbers? For example [URL]

Delay In Switching Between Workbook Windows
Oct 22, 2009Workbook Name Changes – But Workbook Does Not For Five Seconds?? MS Office Excel 2003 / SP3 Installed. I have noticed an odd occurrence from time to time while switching between workbooks. When I switch from one workbook to another, (typically via the “Window” pull down – but the same result happens when switching workbooks on the tabs at the bottom of the screen), the “switched to” workbook name will instantly appear at the top of the application, but the actual switch to the selected workbook is delayed for several seconds, (five seconds or so).
While not a major issue, it is annoying. I suspect that it is a memory allocation issue, (I have a Duo CPU System / XP Pro / 2 GB RAM), and with that in mind I have both restated MS Excel and also performed a complete re-boot. While either option does (seem) to result in the issue being (temporally) removed from my machine, it does return. I may go for several days without this issue occurring, and then it appears for no known reason

View 2 Replies View RelatedEmail Body Switching From HTML To RTF In Outlook Web App?
Jan 2, 2014I'm having an issue with some emails that I send out automatically. I use Ron de Bruin's code to send with the Range to HTML function from Mail Range/Selection in the body of the mail.
My issue is when I view in OWA, all the formatting is lost. There is no issue viewing in Outlook itself, but some of our sales people use the web app and the view is corrupted. Back when I did this manually, I would just copy and paste the range of cells into the body of the message, and there was never any problem with formatting in OWA.
Is there a setting that needs to be changed, or have code for pasting a range into the body of a message that works?
