I'm making a summary workbook. Each worksheet name represents a workbook. I want to then set the workbook I have just opened as 'refbk', though I am having trouble.

I often have a problem with the vbaProject.bin file corrupting and not allowing me to open that excel workbook. Here is my solution that has worked a few times;
- Rename the file extension to .xls
- On the developer tab disable all macros
- With excel closed Hold Ctrl, double-click to open the bad workbook in safemode
- Hopefully it opens
- View the VBA code and remove and export it all
- Save the bad file with your preferred extension
- Reopen the file, import the VBA modules and save
- Reopen and enable macros
- Try to back things up properly in future

Hello
I have had a lot of corrupted vbaProject.bin files. I tends to happen to one particular work book. Is there something in the code that causes it to corrupt itself?
No Corruption vbaProject.bin = 81KB
With Corruption vbaProject.bin = 57KBCode

I have some data like this; 1000 1000 10 10 100 1111
each number represents a second. I want to convert it to a percentage ie;25 25 25 25 25 25 25 25 50 50 50 50 33 33 33 100 100 100 100
Any idea how to do it in excel for a lot of data?

I have a workbook with a chart-sheet on it. It has two series, one from workbook A and one from workbook B. If I delete the series from workbook B, the chart book should update it's links to show that only workbook A is linked. However if I update it still shows both books as linked. I tried running;
but all I get is runtime error 1004
Method 'UpdateLink' of object'_Workbook' failedI have also tried to go Data, Connections tab, Edit links, Update links. But the link to workbook B remains.
It seems the only way I can update the links is to save and re-open the workbook. Does anyone know how to update the links without having to do this?

I think I just have to ReDim later no alternative. Just a bit more code to write not too bad

Currently I have one massive module with 800 lines of code & I want to seperate it into seperate manageable chunks. First step is to get data from the inputs sheet. I'm trying to make the variables public so they can be used in other modules.
[VBA]
Option Explicit
Public FD_Ratio As Double
Public gears As Double
Public TM As Double
Public Wheel_Diameter As Double
Public F0 As Double
Public F1 As Double
Public F2 As Double
Public Kr As Double
Public SM As Double
Public PI As Double
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Inputs")
gears = .Cells(9, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column - 10
End WithPublic Gear_ratios(gears) As Double[/VBA]
The problem here is the length of some variables ie Gear_ratios is defined by variables on the sheet. How can I get around this?

Thanks BaraaKhalil this is what I wanted.
Norei, I don't want them formatted as 'true' dates because they tend to be more difficult to plot into a chart. With a fraction I am free to change to hours or minutes etc and plot more easily.

I have a spreadsheet full of times formatted as 13.09.2017 10:31:35 DD.MM.YYYY HH:MM:SS
I want to change them to a Number which should be 42991.438599537 in this example.
This is my attempted code;Code
Display MoreSub ChangeDateTimetoNumber() 'cells(1,1)= 13.09.2017 10:31:35 DD.MM.YYYY HH:MM:SS MyDateTime = Cells(1, 1) MyDateTime = Replace(MyDateTime, ".", "/") 'Run time error Type 13 Type mismatch myDateTimeNumber = CDbl("#" & MyDateTime & "#") 'This works but VBA automatically changes the format between the ## myDateTimeNumber = CDbl(#9/13/2017 10:31:35 AM#) End Sub

Hello
I have a whole workbook of charts with series references such as;
=SERIES([o040914c.xls]csv!$GD$1,[o040914c.xls]csv!$A$2:$A$18103,[o040914c.xls]csv!$GD$2:$GD$18103,4)
sometimes I want to be able to make changes to multiple charts and series, for example replacing the workbook reference with another one.
Eg [o040914c.xls] to [o130814a.xls] (British date format)
-Also the excel I am using is 2003.

Re: How to use a constant from the WorksheetFunction.Max?
OK royUK I have declared test_leng as long but still get the same error;
Compile Error:
Constant expression required.CodeSub Make_a_dyno_file() Const test_leng As Long = WorksheetFunction.Max(ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Vehicle Data").Range("F:F")) '=886 in this case Dim Velocity(0 To test_leng) End Sub
I then tried using Dim instead of Const, but I got the equals highlighted and the following error;
Compile Error:
Expected: end of statement -
Hello all. I am getting an error with this code, the test_leng is a constant of 886, yet I can't declare it as a constant either.

I want to colour my combobox items with respect to the colour of the seriescollection that they represent. However I get this error;

Re: Read the series formula into VBA.
so far I have;
CodePrivate Sub CommandButton1_Click() the_series_Formula = ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(2).Formula Debug.Print the_series_Formula the_column_letter_loc = InStr(1, the_series_Formula, "$") + 1 Debug.Print the_column_letter_loc the_column_letter = Right(Left(the_series_Formula, the_column_letter_loc), 1) Debug.Print the_column_letter End Sub
The problem is it only gives me the letter of the 1st series of data not the 2nd. Why is this?

I have 2 series of data on a excel line graph. One of which is;
=SERIES(Sheet1!$G$1,Sheet1!$E$2:$E$12615,Sheet1!$G$2:$G$12615,2)I want to be able to produce a macro that can read this series formula. So that I can then find which column the Y-axis variable come from. In this case 'G'.
thank you

I want to be able to right click on a chart series and then have the option in the drop down menu of running my own macro. (excel 2003)
Many thanks

Solved!!
Solved it! Hopefully someone else will find this handy!
Code
Display MoreSub formula_read() The_formula = Cells(2, 88).formula '=AD203-(BC2*(1-(1/BB2))) Length = Len(The_formula) number_count = 0 For i = 1 To Length If Mid(The_formula, i, 1) >= "0" And Mid(The_formula, i, 1) <= "9" Then GoTo is_a_number GoTo not_a_number is_a_number: the_number = the_number & Mid(The_formula, i, 1) number_count = number_count + 1 GoTo loop_again not_a_number: If number_count = 0 Then NON_number_count = i If number_count > 0 Then i = Length loop_again: Next i the_number = the_number + 1 final_string = Mid(The_formula, 1, NON_number_count) & the_number & Mid(The_formula, number_count + NON_number_count + 1, Length - number_count) Debug.Print NON_number_count 'the length of non-numbers Debug.Print number_count 'the length of numbers Debug.Print the_number 'ie 204 Debug.Print The_formula 'original formula Debug.Print final_string 'new formula End Sub

I want to read the formula from a cell, ie =AD203-(BC2*(1-(1/BB2))), specifically the '203' so I can then modify it and then replace it with another number. The number may be 1to3 digits long and may be proceeded by letters and signs brackets etc. My first task is to see how long the number is and record it as count, however my code doesn't appear to work.
Code
Display MoreSub formula_read() The_formula = Cells(2, 82).formula '=AD203-(BC2*(1-(1/BB2))) Length = Len(The_formula) Count = 0 For i = 1 To Length If Mid(The_formula, i, 1) = IsNum Then Count = Count + 1 If Count > 0 And Mid(The_formula, i, 1) <> IsNum Then i = Length Next i Debug.Print Count Debug.Print The_formula End Sub

Re: Say NO to would you like to re-open workbook prompt
I think this works...well it did but sometime it crashes excel instead
Code
