I recorded the macro and it works fine the first time I try to test it but after it tells me that there is an error...
I'm not exactly sure what to do. Unfortunately, I could not find what I needed on youtube
Error: It talks about the object being out of range and allows me to debug... the code that is in the developer is:
Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
'
'
Sheets("Sheet2").Select
Windows("Worksheet in Book1").Visible = True
Selection.Verb Verb:=xlPrimary
ActiveWindow.Close
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
End Sub
The Windows line is what it tells me to fix.. from there I am lost... Is it because I am trying to do a double clicking function?
I have created an Excel Workbook and this Workbook has a VBA code that enforces an expiry date of the workbook (TimeBomb from cpearson.com). So, if the expiry date has passed, the workbook will not open. But since it is VBA related, the expiry date will work only if one has enabled macros. If macros are disabled, the workbook will open regardless of the date.
So, is there a way for Excel to check if macros are enabled? and is there a way for Excel not to open the workbook, if the macros are disabled?
i am trying to work out why i always have to enable macro's when i open some of my files that i have macros in, as i save them as enable macro file. I run excel 2007
as there are files i want to open without clicking on the enable button.
My son just upgraded my computer from 2000 to xp - a new application on a new hard drive. in the process, Excel was upgraded from 97 SR-1 to 97 SR-2.
My checkbook is on excel, and I really need to open it! We just moved to a new location, with the typical problems with email, internet etc.
I can open workbooks without macros. But I cannot open any with macros.
I get this message:
"Could not register the Visual Basic environment."
When that window is closed, the next one says:
"An error occured when initializing the VBA libraries (126)"
1- how can i open an xls file from a macros to get some data from it?
2- how can i set a wait function, till i press a special button before macros will be able to continue.
e.g.:
[macros.xla]
Is it possible to open a workbook via vba, but disable the macros? I know this sounds strange, but the workbook is coded to prevent users from saving it, and the only way to save it is to either open it with macros disabled or change the variable OKtoSave to true, but the variable is global only to the sheet and I can't find a way to change it through a macro written in my personal.xls workbook.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to avoid using macros in my workbook, however, I'm unable to get my worksheets to change name (based on a named range) without use of them, as follows.
I've written the macro:
Sub MyMacro()
ActiveSheet.Name = Range("MyRange")
End Sub
and then dropped the following into the worksheet
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Run "MyMacro"
End Sub
This works fine, but I'm trying to avoid using macros. When I try to place the following script in the worksheet private code, nothing happens:
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
ActiveSheet.Name = Range("MyRange")
End Sub
I am facing an issue where my macro is unable to open multiple files and run the macros in it. Below is the code that i am using and it stops at boss1.

I'm posting a workbook on our network that I want to enable users to go in and update. I have the workbook designed, with entry fields for the data they need to enter, and they then push "Submit" to submit the new data to a hidden tracking log within the workbook.
Many of the users will be complete Excel newbies, and although I haven't posted the workbook yet, I am trying to anticipate possible issues. The first that comes to mind is that the user opening the workbook may not have macros enabled in their version of Excel, and they will get a message, and can't perform the udpate. Is there a way to add a Workbook Open event that automatically enable macros in the workbook when they open it, even if it is for this workbook only?
Everytime I open Excel, the personal.xls file opens. What does one need to do to have the personal.xls file available as an option to save macros to, and have it open in the background only - not as an active file you can see?

View 11 Replies View RelatedI'd like to automatically run 1 of 4 macros depending on some criteria. Every workbook created has, unfortunately, the same worksheet name, so that leaves the only differences between the 4 possible loaded workbooks in the cells area and even those can be similiar in many ways. But....I found some criteria to separate all 4 workbooks...Here they are...
run macro 1 if this
1. Worksheet name says "Screen"
2. Cell H1 has the word "Lead"
run macro 2 if this
1. Worksheet name says "Screen"
2. Cell B1 has the word "records" somewhere in the cell
3. Cell H1 has the word "Lead"
run macro 3 if this
1. Worksheet name says "Screen"
2. Cell B1 has the word "records" somewhere in the cell
3. Cell N2 has the word "Delivered"
run macro 4 if this
1. Worksheet name says "Screen"
2. Cell B1 has the word "records" somewhere in the cell
3. Cell N2 has the word "Bevel"
I don't know if this can be done, but if so, that would be fantastic! I'm thinking that the macro would have to be "global" and in the user's personal workbook?
The first macro protects all sheets in a Spreadsheet and the second unprotects. The the next Macro Protects the enitre workbook and likewise the next one Unprotects. All using passwords.

Is it possible to create 1 macro which will execute multiple macros on different sheets?
I have approx. 12 macros that I can run in order, and I would like to create 1 button on the first sheet of the workbook to execute all 12 macros, which are contained on various other sheets. Is this possible?
When I attempted to do this, the master macro ran an odd function on my first sheet.
I have a setup at the moment where I have a spreadsheet using a bunch of macros that are coded in a module attached to another spreadsheet. In both spreadsheets the macros are tied to Excel buttons placed within worksheets. When I copy the spreadsheets each month to new directories - they're used for some monthly reporting - I see the following behavior:
1/ The spreadsheet that contains the module with the code for the macros correctly updates the location of the macros and works OK.
2/ If I open the other spreadsheet and save it the macros appear in the tools/macro dialog as having changed location OK. However, if I try to use the macros by pressing a button the macros invoked are in the old location. If I check the assignment of the macros in this spreadsheet by right-clicking on a button, indeed the macros invoked are in the old location. This means that I have to go through and manually update for each button the macro invoked.
I'm trying to synthesize a fair amount of averages response time data from about 300 separate worksheets into one master sheet and I'm wondering what the best way is to do it using Excel's macros.
In each subject condition-worksheet there are 24 cell items that need to be pulled and put into the master worksheet; there are 2 conditions, for a total of 48 line items.
In each subject file, the subject number is in cell A1, my first desired average is in M7, then M15, M23, M31, M39, M47, M55, M63, then it repeats back to M9, M17, M25, etc..
How can I create a macro that creates a new line for each subject (starting with row 2) first with their subject number (A1 in all subject files), then M7, M15, M23, M31, M39, etc. moving across the row?
I am trying to converts several worksheets into a .pdf document and have spent a few hours surfing and have come up with this so far:
Sub PDFPrintNSave()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Sheets(Array("Sheet 1", "Sheet 2")).Sheet1 , , 1
Sheet1.ExportAsFixedFormat Type:=x1TypePDF, Filename:="C:PDF1on1.pdf", OpenAfterPublish:=True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
The problem I can't seem to get past is in the second line (bolded). I cannot figure out what should be input here to make the array work.
I have a module, which lists, by date, the number of instances of certain words as defined at the top of the column.
Anyway, this works fine - it operates on all sheets of a certain name type:
I am trying to figure out how to count all open workbooks, then count all worksheets within the workbooks and come up with the total amount of worksheets in a message box. I know that it sounds very simple and probably is, but I really can't figure it out.

Hit MAKE CHANGE button to see the problem.
are there means to make visible the hidden rows and columns on all sheets
when the workbook is opened?
I have this workbook with 22 sheets and 21 are hidden. On the one open sheet there is a button that opens a userform with a listbox. I have radio buttons on the side to control whether the list box allows single selection, multiple selection, and extended selection. I want to change extended to open all sheets.
Anyway, I have the list box populated but I can't figure out how to code opening single sheets, multiple sheets, or all sheets depending on the radio button selected when the OK button is pressed. I know the listbox depends on the selected property but I am stuck. Here is the code I had but it is a mess. I am still new to VBA.
Private Sub OKButton_Click()
Dim Msg As String
Dim i As Integer
Dim UserSheet As Object
If ListBox1.ListIndex = -1 Then
Msg = "Please select a sheet."
Else
Msg = ""
For i = 0 To ListBox1.ListCount - 1
If ListBox1.Selected(i) Then
For Each i In ListBox1..........................
I have an Excel 2003 program that contains macros. One of the macros hides certain command bars and disables the worksheet menu bar. On close the opposite is true. The problem is, if a user uses the disable macros when opening then the worksheet menu bar and other command bars are still available. I would like to hide all of the data sheets and display another sheet that would normally be hidden displaying a message that the macros have to be enabled for the program to work correctly if disable macros is chosen. When the enable macros are used I would like the Error page to be hidden.

I have a user that keeps a maintenance log in an Excel worksheet and sends an updated copy once a week to a board member. Two weeks ago, the board member started complaining that he was prompted to enable/disable macros on opening and became worried when my user stated that no macros were used in the book. He is now concerned that we have sent him a virus.
I know the file is clean because I've scanned it, and when I look at the file in VB, there are no modules or classes present just the Sheets 1-3 and the ThisWorkbook file. None of these objects have any code in them. My user does have some macros in PERSONAL.XLS but they are not used in the workbook in question.
No one else gets the prompt for enabling/disabling macros. Even if I set my security to prompt for any macros, I get no message. I'm convinced that there must be some setting in his Excel that is causing this individual to get this message. Is there anything else other than a macro that would cause this?
What is the commands or script for deleting a macro automatically using
another workbook macro.
