Copy & pasting from one active sheet into another
Submitted by AMWalton89 on 17 August, 2014 - 14:38Hi,
I am trying to create a macro that allows me, in loops, to select a cell in one active worksheet, activate another worksheet and paste it in, then going through the process x number of times in the loop.

Dim i As Integer, j As Integer
i = 109
j = 109
Do While i < 110 And j < 110

Count Conditional Format Cells with complex formulas
Submitted by eherron on 13 August, 2014 - 21:06I have a speadsheet with conditional format formulas that have both fixed ($A$1)and relative (A1) references. There are too many cells to change all the relative references to fixed as each cell would have to be changed indiviually. I have as many as 3 different conditional format formulas. I want to be able to count how many cells meet each conditional format (one is yellow fill, one is bold type and the last is double underline). Since I can't use the conditional format formula, since each cell's is different, I need to be able to count the cells in the range if the format is applied.

Running a macro based on double clicking a cell in a different sheet
Submitted by MidoOnly on 12 August, 2014 - 12:25Dears,
Good morning or good evening wherever you are.
I am new with VBA. So, I had to search online on how to do what I wanted to do with my workbook. But now I am stuck and I hope you could help me.
In sheet 1, there is a table of data.
Each row has a site code and some data related to this site.
I want to copy certain rows to sheet 4 based on a cell value containing the site code. So, I used the below code:

Sub CopyData()Dim myWord$
myWord = InputBox("Enter Site Code:", "Enter your word")
If myWord = "" Then Exit Sub

Need help extracting data - pivot tables, vlookup and maybe VBA?
Submitted by rbexcelhelp on 6 August, 2014 - 16:55Hi, I am working on an excel sheet and need some help.
I have data in the format of Part B on the attached image. I have only shown a few examples of the data, but I have 15+ various line items which all have different work items, descriptions, work orders, completion dates, etc.
I need to sort the data in various methods to include the actual cost based on car, location, type, etc. I believe pivot tables is the best tool to use to analyze the data. However, with pivot tables, I've found I need all of the data on 1 line like Part A of the attached image.

VBA code to sort rows that contain offsetting amounts based on account number
Submitted by mcgbbg1234 on 31 July, 2014 - 19:27What I would like to do is develop a code/macro that will sort rows that contain offsetting dollar amounts based on their account numbers.

I would like to be able to sort those rows by Column A (Account number), then have offsetting amounts in rows next to each other so they can easily be deleted from the excel sheet. Example:

Corrupted Xlsx File
Submitted by halifburak39 on 30 July, 2014 - 13:49So, i was copying some files after work from one partition to another. I then accidently deleted both partitions due to being really tired. I managed to get my files back using recovery software. However one of the files recovered was an Excel file.
Ms Excel says its corrupted snd that i can't open it. Its a really important file for me as it has my work hours all written down in it so i would really like to have it back.
Anyone have any ideas?
I've already tried opening it in openoffice calc but it just comes up in mumbo jumbo language/text.
Looking forward to your feedback!
