$$Excel-Macros$$ PasteSpecial

2011-08-10 Thread ja...@macstop.co.uk
Hi,

This is driving me crazy, can someone help!

I have a nice pretty worksheet, all coloured in and stuff - all I want
to do is select all the cells and copy - then paste into a new
workbook.

I can do all of this, but it seems when using pastespecial I have to
select values (because these cells have formulae in that I don't want
to copy) at which point I lose the cell formatting. I have tried
xlPasteValuesAndNumberFormats and pretty much every option I can see.

There 'must' be a way - surely?!

PS I am working in 2010 but it has to be backwards compatible down to
02

$$Excel-Macros$$ Re: PasteSpecial

2011-08-10 Thread ja...@macstop.co.uk
don't worry, I worked it out using 2 lines of code, pastespecial values then 
formats - would be nice to do it in one but I'm not that fussed... For some 
reason I had convinced myself doing it a second time would wipe out the 
number

Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ PasteSpecial

2011-08-10 Thread ja...@macstop.co.uk
thanks - it's a long story but basically I'm trying to export some sheets 
from a workbook with loads of code behind it. I wanted to use move/copy 
originally but it takes the vba behind the sheets with it. (Which I don't 
want).

So I wrote a function that just deleted all vba code in the workbook - but 
then I ran into Excel 2010 issues having to tick the VBA project security 
box to let that run.

The guy I am working for won't want to tell all his users they have to tick 
that... and I was worried about backwards compatibility too, so I decided to 
go for the easier option of copying the cells rather than the sheet. 

It's working now, not particularly quick but I think it's quick enough!!

Thanks for your help

$$Excel-Macros$$ Excel VBA/ Access

2011-09-14 Thread ja...@macstop.co.uk
Hi,

I have posted this on the access group too, it can't really be
classified as one or the other, but it's driving me mad, can anyone
help.


I have an Access 2010 database, which I have saved as .mdb. (ie not
accdb)

It has an update query in, which takes 2 string parameters. When I run
it from Access it works fine - asks me for the 2 parameters then
updates the table accordingly.

However, I am trying to run it from Excel VBA. At first I thought the
issue was the parameters, so I created another update query which
takes 0 parameters. The continual error I get is 'Operation must use
an updateable query'.

It goes without saying that I can connect to the database, and I can
run normal Select statements - anyone got any ideas? Code below:
(obviously the execute line is the one that gives the error).

Function RunUpdateQuery(objConn As ADODB.Connection)
Dim objCommand As ADODB.Command

Set objCommand = New ADODB.Command

With objCommand
 .ActiveConnection = objConn
 .CommandType = adCmdStoredProc
 .CommandText = "qryTest"
 .Execute
 End With


End Function
