Cheers for the thanks, something people often don't do! And is this i
likely to be one of my last posts I'd better make it a good one- I hav
been posting loads on here while doing a job in xl that I basicall
automated after a week for thelast 3 months. I have however got a muc
nicer one starting in a couple of weeks!
When you use the delete command you are deleting the range of cells a
you would if you selected them, right clicked and then selected delete
You are then promted to select which direction you want to move th
remaining cells in (give it a go if you aren't sure what I mean). Thi
means you have to specify this direction when you use delete to giv
"Range(rngToDelete).Delete(-Shift- )" where shift can be xlUp, xlDown
xlLeft & xlRight.
It is worth noting that selecting a range then pressing delete has th
same effect as the "ClearContents" command. The range and all it
formats ar still there it's just the values/formulas that disappear.
I am at my parents house today dog sitting before heading out with som
mates later- Haworth had better watch out! My parents PC, despite bein
about 2GHz faster than mine, is running office 97 and I'm having savin
issues.... I am able to view the code though however, and it looks lik
the problem is only with the select method for that worksheet- I hav
been trying various things and getting bizzare results at time
relating to the active selection. It might prove to be easiest t
delete the sheet and make a new one from scratch as something i
clearly wrong with it.
Some pointers you might find useful though (and they get around no
being able to select cells on the "invoice" worksheet)-
You do not have to use select to complete a paste operation. Where yo
have used:
Range("b3").Select
Selection.Copy
Sheets("invoice").select
Range("b7").select
Activesheet.pase
I would use:
Sheet2.Range("B3").Copy Sheet3.Range("B7")
Also see the code in the attached reating to button2_Click
And finally, though not technically wrong it would be clearer t
customers if in the shipping charge field on the invoice shee
contained the IF() statement rather than the total field. The tota
field can then just sum the 2 rows above it. ie
Sales - 300
Shiping - 25
Total - 300
is more confusing than:
Sales - 300
Shipping - 0
Total - 300
Enjoy
