Macro and hidden sheets
Hi, I have a WB with 10 worksheets. At the time I did this WB, I also created a Macro that had the task to change the format of all the sheets. Today, I have decided to hide some of the sheets and the macro does no longer work. I guess this is because it cannot find the sheets which are hidden. My question is: Is there a way to allow the Macro to work as before, meaning to continue changing the format of the hidden sheets as well? Something like a condition that says, if Sheet XY is hidden then look for it into etc. Thank you Alex

Hi Alex, A hidden sheet cannot be selected, so try re-writing your code to remove selections. If this does nor resolve your problem, post your code. --- Regards, Norman "Metallo" <Metallo@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:AE72C4F3-4EE6-47DD-B83C-AD8AF2A15A7D@microsoft.com... > Hi, > > I have a WB with 10 worksheets. > At the time I did this WB, I also created a Macro that had the task to > change the format of all the sheets. > Today, I have decided to hide some of the sheets and the macro does no > longer work. > I guess this is because it cannot find the sheets which are hidden. > > My question is: Is there a way to allow the Macro to work as before, > meaning > to continue changing the format of the hidden sheets as well? > Something like a condition that says, if Sheet XY is hidden then look for > it > into etc. > > Thank you > Alex >
normanjonesNorman, I am aware that it cannot be selected, but my question was another, that is, is there a workaround to make the hidden sheets selectable even if they are hidden? For instance, the formulas work fine, the values generated as a result of a calculation turn out in the hidden sheets as if the they were unhidden, therefore I was wondering: If the formulas work on hidden sheets, why cannot the macros? Hope this is clearer. Thank you!

You can reach your end goal by altering your Macro to first check each sheet to see if it is Hidden, and if so then unhide it > perform your reformatting > and then rehide it and go on to the next.......if the sheet is not hidden, then just perform the reformatting and go on.....

Chuck, Easy to say, but I have no clou on how to instruct the macro to check if the sheet is hidden or not. Can you give me a sample so that I understand how it works and then I can apply it to my macro? Thanks man Vai con Dio, indeed!

Sorry I took so long to get back....I was at work before and got busy, and

This is crude, but does perform the desired task.....enough to give you the
idea, anyway.
Sub CheckIfHidden()
Sheets("sheet1").Select
'Do Your code here to sheet1 which was not hidden
If Sheets("sheet2").Visible = False Then
Sheets("sheet2").Visible = True
Sheets("sheet2").Select
'Do your code here to sheet2 if it was hidden
Sheets("sheet2").Visible = False
Else
Sheets("sheet2").Select
'Do your code here to sheet2 if it was not hidden
End If
End Sub

Macro Freezes Reading Pane
I have a macro that Sends/Receives Tasks from Project Server into Outlook Tasks. Everything is working fine, except one weird thing that happens. I have the Timer set on the macro and it starts as soon as Outlook starts. The macro gets the tasks from ProjectServer every hour. As soon as the macro starts running the Reading pane freezes in the Inbox. If i stop the macro then Reading pane is back to normal. Can anyone please tell me if there is something I can do in VBA to fix this annoying issue. Thanks a lot ...
Macro to remove rows?
Hi, I receive thousands of rows of data from an extract that comes from a database. The data extract automatically generates page headers that need to be removed, and I would love to automate this process. The headers do have a pattern to them, but I'm not clever enough to figure out a good way to use that to write a macro. The first row of the header starts with hyphens ------------------------------- Then there's a variable number of rows of header data to delete followed by another row of hyphens ------------------------------- Then 2 additional rows that must be deleted. The nu...
Tracking Sheet help.
Sheet 3 of my workbook is a tracking sheet. In cell B8 (sheet 3) I enter the amount of time's that I've made an entry of time on sheet 2. The times I enter on sheet 2 are used to track vehicles that are passing a set location. On sheet 2 I enter the times in column D. The vehicle's I count have numbers to ID them in column F. The numbers look like 401N1501, 401N1514, 401S1516, 401S1600. The part of the number I need to associate with my count is the first four digits, 401N, 401S. Is it possible to do this? Yep, use a sumproduct function to count using the left 4 digits as...

Macros have been disabled but there is no macro
when I open a specific doc the info bar at the top says "Macros have been disabled", but when I hit Alt+F11 I can't find any VB or a module to remove. Why is it telling me about macros? Other docs don't give me this prompt. I thought I might have to enable macros to see the code. When I enabled macro, it said "do you want to save changes to this doc?" it flickered and came back as if immediately reopened. Any ideas? I could copy and paste the text into a new doc but I'd be interested to be able to strip off this problem. The doc is an internal IT ...
