External signal to active VBA Macro in Excel
Submitted by Ifret on 7 April, 2014 - 18:52Hello guys!
I have looked in the forum, but didn't find any topic about this subject so I'm starting one.
Mr. andycr have helped me a lot in something I'm trying to develop in the Autorun Macro topic I opened, but even if the target is still the same, the question is other, so I'm starting another topic.
Well no more delays, get to the matter.
I'm now looking for a way to create an external signal to VBA programming, I mean for example, create a signal in C++ program to send a information to VBA, does anyone knows if it is possible?

Excel Problem VBA
Submitted by BigBang21 on 7 April, 2014 - 18:42Hello,
I have a very big problem with Excel and searching for a solution, so any piece of advice is greatly appreciated. From what you may read will know that I'm not a very good english speaker, but I will do my best ;)
I have 2 excel workbooks. First excel workbook is a xml feed where I have applied some formulas and transform it to fit my needs, the second workbook is refreshed at 500ms and populating by a third party software ( in this case BetAngel ). I would like to export a sheet from the first excel to the second one, and link it to do some testing.
Excel keeps using 25% CPU after XML import
Submitted by stibay on 5 April, 2014 - 19:08Hi.
So I finnaly got a workaround for importing data from my Web Service to Excel.
This is probably a veeery bad way of doing it so if anyone know of a better way I am glad to hear it. (Didnt work to use the normal child method since the whole result from the XML comes in one big mash in a child node)
It is currently working, but after I have imported the data I see from the Task Manager that Excel keeps using 25% CPU. And it also sometimes lags and mini freezes in Excel.
If I delete the row that was juts imported it immediately goes down to 0% CPU use and the lagg/freezes are gone.
Find Multiple Instances of a Numeric Value and Return the Column Numbers where the Value is found
Submitted by Sam-Excel on 2 April, 2014 - 11:32Hi All,
I am using Excel 2007 for Windows. I would like a flexible (single) formula based solution for the following:
My data is numeric, in a tabular format spanning many columns and rows - the number of rows will continue to increase. I have numeric labels in row 3 spanning the width of my table.
The data starts in column "G" row 4 and ends in column "BK". The cells within the table are
populated with a formula which returns either a numeric value or empty text ("") showing a blank cell.

VBA and combo box filtering
Submitted by nparsons75 on 25 March, 2014 - 08:41I have a number of user forms. Let's say 5. Stage 1,2,3,4 and 5. At stage 1 a serial number is entered into a text box. At stage 2 the serial number becomes available in a combo box. I need to select the serial number from the combo box and press submit. I need the serial number to now show in a combo box at stage 3, BUT, no longer show at stage 2. Once the serial number has been submitted at stage 2 it can't be selected again (unless re-booked in at stage 1).

calculations across sheets in excel 2010
Submitted by shepherd711 on 24 March, 2014 - 18:24I have created a excel spreadsheet for 25 years of weather data. There is one sheet for each year; each sheet labeled with the year and with the year also listed in A1. Months are in columns and records are nested withing months. All years (sheets) are formatted the same. I am able to summarize data using an expression like MIN('1989:2014'!G48) which returns a correct value, but I also want to know in which year (sheet) the value exists. Is there an expression that will retrieve this additional info?

Getting names for corresponding numbers
Submitted by A Kumarsreenivas on 24 March, 2014 - 03:22Team...
I am sorry for the huge delay made in responding to your question.
Here we go...
We build a data base of party names & property history captured from scanned images.
After a complete cycle of data processing, the data base will be kept online so that the customers can search and find the information.
We came across documents showing multiple last names such as the sample I have shown in spread sheet. I have added another sample for your understanding. Plz have a look.

Help with Filters and FILTERXML(WEBSERVICE
Submitted by rarndt on 13 March, 2014 - 03:50I thought I had everything entered correctly to pull my data. However,some cells are getting a #VALUE! error and the filters seem to be partially out of order when I try to filter largest to smallest. I am not sure if the error is in my formulas, spreadsheet design or on the server I am pulling the data from. I had to remove some data to make the file small enough to attach. This was a 2+ meg file. Hopefully you can still see where the errors are. Any help would be appreciated.
