    How do I create a function that divides range of excel cells by 1000?

    I have a range of cells that are in $##,###.00 format. I need the cells to be in thousandths format, i.e., instead of $16,400.00, it should be $0.16 instead. I tried naming the range and creating a loop that loops through the range and divides each cell by 1000, but it doesn't work due to a...

    Automation Error

    Maybe knowledge base article Q199219 on the microsoft website will help. I ran across it in search of help with another problem, and it looks like it is related to your problem. The article describes problems using the With statement. -Larissalle

    VBA/Excel: how do I test if columns.hidden = true?

    Thanks for the tips. I tried both and both worked. I ended up using the second one, columns.hidden = false, after I saw that it took no longer to just unhide all rather than first test if there were any hidden before unhiding. Thanks!

    VBA/Excel: how do I test if columns.hidden = true?

    I know how to test if activesheet.autofiltermode = true. Can I do something similar to test if there are any hidden columns in a worksheet? If true, I want to unhide them. If false, do nothing. The following didn't work: first select worksheet, then If Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = True...

    Workbook containing active X controls opens really slowly

    I had a similar problem. It was caused by .emf files being generated in the temp directory each time a VBA button was clicked. emf stands for enhanced meta file and is generated when a graphics object is activated, i.e., a button. Check your temp folder. If you have thousands upon thousands...

    VBA and Excel Macro's not mixing well

    No response received on this thread. But, I did figure out some of the problem, in case anyone is interested. It had to do with a bug in Excel 2000 where .emf files were not being deleted automatically. We had tens of thousands of .emf files in the temp directory created each time a button in...

    Writing Excel files from VB

    Jonathan, Re: "...creating several largish excel workbooks in this way causes the app to slow down and eventually grind to a complete halt." Not sure if this applies to Excel running on Win 95, but I found that Excel2000 running on Win NT 2000 Professional, comes to a grinding halt...

    VBA and Excel Macro's not mixing well

    I have 30 or so pages of VBA code that is stepping through one to four separate excel files that contain raw data. The VBA code opens, saves, and closes the other excel files, and manipulates the raw data (extracts, imports, and plots/reports the revised data). The VBA code is accessed by...

    How to get around excel concatenation limit

    How do I get around the limit that excel has on the number of cells that can be included in the concatenation function? Seems to max out at 15 columns. I need to concatenate 20 columns, one to 10 characters each, mix of strings and numbers. I tried using VBA to do a concatenation upon...

    Change event: one column of data determines text in another column

    I am trying to get one column of numbers to determine the text in another column. If column 1 = 0, then I want the same row in column 2 = "none" and it should be formatted with green as background pattern color. I have named ranges for each column and I tried to use a...
