Here is the code I use: http://www.rondebruin.nl/windowsxpzip.htm

Instead of asking for the entire code, please let us know what you've already tried and specifically what you need help with. "Please write the code for me" isn't going to inspire many people to try and help. You've left out important details that would allow anyone to even begin to assist...

What is your actual goal and why does it require this workflow?

You could create a data entry area by locking and hiding all cells, then unlocking and unhiding the cells you want to allow editing in, then protecting the worksheet. I have a VBA based approach here...

A quick Google search produced numerous links with the code you need: http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6148 http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/isvvba/thread/736155c6-1e55-415c-add0-8d95d3e29212/ http://www.eileenslounge.com/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=1986

I like the Solver solution. Thought about that but went with formulas instead.

A1:A5 contains your values: 23, 46, 67, 12, 56 This formula calculates how much you need to add to each value to reach 250: =(250-SUM(A1:A5))/COUNTA(A1:A5) Add this to each cell's value to get the new value, i.e. in cell B1 put "=A1+((250-SUM(A1:A5))/COUNTA(A1:A5))" Does that work for you?

You could use VB6 to create an ActiveX DLL. The VBA code would translate almost exactly to VB6 code.

You can create a PivotTable in Excel based on an external data source, including an Access query. See http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/about-pivottable-and-pivotchart-source-data-HP005199304.aspx However it may not work since your query requires user intervention. In my...

Does this help? http://spreadsheetpage.com/index.php/tip/creating_a_thermometer_style_chart/

What I would do is set up a recurring task with something like "Mail from xyz@go.com not received" in the subject. Have it occur at 5:30 PM every weekday. Then I would add an event handler (VBA) to check each incoming email. If the email address is xyz@go.com, then look for the task and mark it...

It has to be a backtick, i.e. grave character, which is usually found next to the number 1 on most keyboards (above the letter keys).

There's some sample code here that shows you how to run a query against an Access MDB and return the result into an array in Excel: http://www.ozgrid.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18289&page=1

How about this: Function Speak(c As Boolean, s As String, t As Long) Dim currenttime As Date currenttime = Now If c Then Do Until currenttime + TimeValue("00:00:" & t) <= Now Loop Application.Speech.Speak s Speak = c End If End Function Call the function like this, specifying...

Excel spreadsheets have at least 256 columns, and have had so at least as far back as Excel 2000. Are you using a lot of array formulas or volatile functions? Can you explain what errors are occurring?

How about the Lists feature? It has a built-in form you can use to update a worksheet with new values.

This response is late, but hopefully it will help someone. What I would do is designate a separate worksheet for the array. Fill the years down in column A (although it really doesn't matter what column you use). Create a dynamic name for the array. For example, this range name assumes that...

I would leave it to Outlook, it has much better tools for managing tasks than Excel. Especially the recurring tasks, as you have already seen.

You can step through this function. Just set a breakpoint on the first line by clicking anywhere in the first line and pressing F9. Then enter the function in a cell. You should immediately jump to that line. Then press F8 repeatedly to step through the function and see where it errors. You...

Excel version? I couldn't find any event in Excel 2003 that fires when you select an entry from a data validation dropdown list.

If there's no underscore, then InicioCadena will equal 1. To be sure, change the UDF so it starts out at zero and only add one to it if it isn't equal to zero. Otherwise, exit with a simple error message. Function extraecontrato(celda As range) Dim InicioCadena, FinCadena As Double, Cadena...

Greetings folks, my name is Jimmy Peña and I've been frequenting this blog ever since I saw Jon Peltier mention it on his blog about a year ago. Lots of great tips can be found here, and with a forum it can only get better. I've been programming for a few years now, mostly VBA with some VB and...
