All of the buttons were working fine. Then I saved and closed the workbook and went to lunch. Now when I open the workbook, the buttons don't work! When I click them nothing happens. They appear frozen. They don't even seem to click. No error message. Nothing.
If I right-click the button in Design Mode and select Properties, I get sheet properties not the button properties. I can't seem to locate the command button properties any longer. I still see the button name "cmdButtonGetInfo" and "=EMBED("Forms.CommandButton.1","") in the name box and formula bar. The odd thing is if I create a new button it works fine until I save and close the file. When I reopen the file none of the buttons work.
It's like the buttons are being disabled when I close or open the file. Any suggestions?
People need to open the file to be able to sign up for various duty rosters.
We would like for the file to open for the first person.
And then for any others after that, get a message that the file is in use
WITHOUT the option to open a read-only copy.
Our staff can't read and they keep opening additional copies of the file!
I have read about sharing the file and I don't think that would make things
any better.
Thanks,

I have a number of different files that I often need to run a macro on. In order for me to do it on the 75-100 files I have at any given time, I need to open one, run the macro, close and save, then open the next one.
Is it possible to write a macro that will start with the first file in a folder, open it and update links, run a macro, save and close, and open the next file in the folder until it has open all the files in the folder.
I have experience with creating macros that reference different workbooks, but not sure how to go about opening files with different filenames (without referencing the exact filename).
I'd like to be able to have basic code for opening, saving and closing, opening next file, saving and closing, etc. and input the macro I'd need to run in each file in the appropriate location. Is this possible? Any help is greatly appreciated!!
Thanks,
Jason
Make sense? I'm a bit confused myself. Maybe just a list of basic workbook-switching techniques or commands would be useful.

I got the below macro which uses IE and open the URLs. I want to create a userform with listbox with radio button and commandbutton on the same which will help me to connect to each url when I select the same in listbox and click on the commandbutton.
Code:
Sub DoBrowse1() Dim ie As Object Set ie = CreateObject("Internetexplorer.Application") ie.Visible = True ie.Navigate "www.google.com" End Sub
Any suggestions..
Code:
Private Sub btn1_Click() UserForm1.PrintForm End Sub
This prints out the userform as I would like, however it autoprints to the default printer and doesn't allow any printing options so I can't select to "print to one page". So as of now it is only printing out half my form and cutting off the rest.
Any suggestions?
I'm pretty new at VBA and was wondering if you could help me out on this:
I have created a VBA userform but will need to have it used by at least 5 users. My question is, can it be done with all users working at the same time and when saving their work all data entered will go to one master excel sheet? if yes, would you be kind enough to share the code?
MS Access is not an option for me so I was wondering if you could help me do this in excel.
thank you so much and would really appreciate to hear from anyone soon.
Thanks
My problem was that a userform defined with Excel at work (containing DT pickers) gave the message in the title when opening it at home. I had a light-bulb moment and wondered whether there was a difference in the version numbers for MSCOMCT2.OCX at work and at home. Turned out the work version was newer. I then copied the MSCOMCT2.* files from work, made a backup of them at home and copied those from work to my C-drive (Windows XP - c:\windows\system32\ ).
No luck. I then rebooted the machine - still no luck.
Then, finally I unregistered the old DLL via
Code:
regsvr32 /u c:\windows\system32\MSCOMCT2.OCX
(not sure if this was necessary, but I didn't think it could hurt). Reregistered the DLL via
Code:
regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\MSCOMCT2.OCX
and what do you know - it worked.
Summa summarum - it could be an idea to check whether the two machines have different version numbers for the MSCOMCT2.OCX files.
Some users of the macro are pressing the macro button and do not have Outlook open so the email isn't sent until they eventually open Outlook!
Thanks in advance
Sub OpenPDF() 'Dim pdf As String On Error Resume Next 'pdf file to open pdf = "K:\PDF\mypdf.pdf" 'open the pdf file ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink pdf End Sub
So then I tried to create an instance of acrobat by setting a reference to the acrobat object but I can't get this to work either!
The code I'm using is Code:
Sub OpenPDF() Dim pdf As AcroPDDoc Dim strPDF As String Set pdf = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc") 'pdf file to open strPDF = "K:\PDF\mypdf.pdf" 'open the pdf file pdf.Open strPDF End Sub
Any ideas what could be wrong with either approach?
Thank-you

I have the AutoOpen code that starts things off, and then, in turn, loads the UserForm with the fields that need to be populated.
I can't figure out how to route the user back to the UserForm, to enter the 'missed' data.
I dont want it to actually make the save though as I want the user to have the chance to check that the save location is correct and the option to change the filename if required.
Cheers.
I need to open a password protected workbook using VBA.
I've tried the code below but I still get prompted for a password.
Code:
Workbooks.Open Filename:="\\HOME\Working\Report.xls" _ , Password:="xxxx"
How do I get it to open automatically???
Excel showing "Not Responding" and is grayed out. I've tried to use Task Manager to stop the application, but as soon as open up Excel it goes right back to opening the spreadsheets and starts calculating again. I have spreadsheets saved, so don't have to recover.
thanks...Dean
But I did so in a beta file (test file). The real file has become so big (103MB!) that Excel cannot even open it anymore! The file contains archive info that we do not have anywhere else.
Is there anyway then to open the file or to reduce its size without opening it (through magics...)? I just honestly don't know how to retrieve that info before deleting that file.
Thank you very much for your help.
This is a very basic question, but i have been struggling for hours, so I must ask.
I I trying to simply fill a combobox on a userform from a named range on a sheet, I want to populate the combobox as soon as the userform starts. (I launch the userform from a button on the sheet) Where must I place the code? and will this code work?
Code:
Sub Button1_Click() Set UserForm1.combobox1.List = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("MyRange") UserForm1.Show End Sub
