Message telling calculation is complete
I am looking for something that would tell end user that the calculation
process is complete. Something simple like text in a cell that appears when calc is complete. Any ideas? Thanks Much! |

Message telling calculation is complete
Thanks...however, that area of the screen is being taken up by another
application. So, I cannot see the calculation meter. Is there some quick little messge box I can create or a cell I can put code to tell user when calc is complete? Thanks.

See Andy Pope's site for a workbook with various progess bars.

Thanks...these look great...however, can you tell me how I actually add one
of these progress meters to my file? Thanks.

You would have to download the workbook from Andy's site then copy the userform
and code module to your workbook.. I would recommend moving the UserForm1 and Module1 to your Personal.xls so you have access to all the types of meters for all open workbooks To access the form and module, open Andy's workbook then Alt + F11 to get to the Visual Basic Editor.

Sorry to keep going here...but I did copy the userform and module into my
workbook. But what do I need to do to get the progress bar to appear during a calculation. Thanks again.

Message telling calculation is complete
Thanks for checking on this. Ultimately all I want to accomplish is a little
progress bar OR just something simple like a box that pops up or shows up in a cell that says..."Calculation Complete" Right now the way the users computer is working...they can't see the "Excel calc meter" and so, the only way for them to see the calc is complete is when the curser changes to an pointing arrow. Any help/ideas would be great. Thanks again! "Gord Dibben" wrote: Haven't got a clue. Will have to download and look at it all.

Message telling calculation is complete
OK.....no progress bar but a message when calculation is complete.
Sample code. Runs on a worksheet with data in A1:Z1600 and copies that data to one column in an added worksheet named "CopyTo" Sub rowstocol() Dim wks As Worksheet Dim colnos As Long Dim CopytoSheet As Worksheet If ActiveSheet.Name = "Copyto" Then MsgBox "Active Sheet Not Valid" & Chr(13) _ & "Try Another Worksheet." Exit Sub Else Set wks = ActiveSheet Application.ScreenUpdating = False For Each Wksht In Worksheets With Wksht If .Name = "Copyto" Then Application.DisplayAlerts = False Sheets("Copyto").Delete End If End With Next Application.DisplayAlerts = True Set CopytoSheet = Worksheets.Add CopytoSheet.Name = "Copyto" wks.Activate Range("A1").Select colnos = 26 StartTime = Timer Do Until ActiveCell.Value = "" ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select With ActiveCell .Resize(1, colnos).Copy End With Sheets("Copyto").Select Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlAll, Operation:=xlNone, _ SkipBlanks:=False _ , Transpose:=True Application.CutCopyMode = False ActiveSheet.Cells(Rows.Count, ActiveCell.Column).End(xlUp).Select ActiveCell.Offset(2, 0).Select Selection.EntireRow.Insert wks.Activate ActiveCell.Select Loop Sheets("Copyto").Activate End If MsgBox "Calculation is complete. Elapsed Time was " _ & Timer - StartTime & " Seconds" 'MsgBox "Calculation is complete" End Sub Add the Timer and msgbox or just the msgbox at end.

Thanks....this looks like I could make work. However, if for instance on
sheet1 the user makes a change to a cell or group of cells...how do I get something like this to automatically run. In other words I want to mimic the Excel calculation meter. So, automatically after changes are made and Excel starts to calculate...a message box appears telling user the calc is complete. Thanks again.

Thanks...where would I put Range(whatever)=done? Would this automatically
run after user makes changes to the worksheet so that it will just pop up saying calc is complete? Thanks again. "jlclyde" wrote: On Apr 30, 10:33 am, deeds wrote: Thanks for checking on this.

Message telling calculation is complete
Making a change to some cells on a sheet and having the message box pop up would
require event code behind the worksheet. But that would run every time any change was made and a calculation took place even if for a nano-second. That would annoy the heck out of me. I would restrict the code to a specfic macro that ran for some some length of time rather than at any calculation.

Message telling calculation is complete
Thanks...however, the only time cells would change in this case would be a
long calculation. So, I think a cell based calculation meter would work fine for this situation. In otherwords, when the user changes a choose box on this workbook the calc takes awhile. That would be the only change users would be doing. Any quick and easy way to just have a message pop up in a cell to let them know calc is complete? Thanks for all your help.

In the sheet module.
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate() MsgBox "calculation is complete" End Sub Right-click on the sheet tab and "View Code". Copy/paste the above into that module. Alt + q to return to the Excel window.

Message telling calculation is complete
Perfect! Turned out to be quite simple...sorry about any confusion. Thanks
so much! "Gord Dibben" wrote: In the sheet module. Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate() MsgBox "calculation is complete" End Sub Right-click on the sheet tab and "View Code". Copy/paste the above into that module. Alt + q to return to the Excel window.

So, I think a cell based calculation meter would work fine for this situation. In otherwords, when the user changes a choose box on this workbook the calc takes awhile. That would be the only change users would be doing. Any quick and easy way to just have a message pop up in a cell to let them know calc is complete? Thanks for all your help. "Gord Dibben" wrote: Making a change to some cells on a sheet and having the message box pop up would require event code behind the worksheet. But that would run every time any change was made and a calculation took place even if for a nano-second. That would annoy the heck out of me. I would restrict the code to a specfic macro that ran for some some length of time rather than at any calculation.

However, if for instance on sheet1 the user makes a change to a cell or group of cells...how do I get something like this to automatically run. In other words I want to mimic the Excel calculation meter. So, automatically after changes are made and Excel starts to calculate...a message box appears telling user the calc is complete. Thanks again. "Gord Dibben" wrote: OK.....no progress bar but a message when calculation is complete. Sample code.
