help with macro
Hoping that some one here can help me with a data logging spreadshee
that I am trying to set up. Right now I am gathering data from one o our machines that has a Programmable Logic Controller with a networ card in it. I am getting my data, but am having a hard time with m logging and clear log. What happens is, when I press the button "Star Log" my data should be saved in 15 min increments. When I am finishe logging, I want to clear the log and stop it until I am ready to begi agian. I have my macros set up and am currently logging, problem i when I press my "Clear Log" button everything goes crazy. It may lo every few seconds or every minute. Also if someone presses the "Star Log" button more that once this occurs. Hopefully some one will b willing to look at my macro and set me straight. "Start Logging" macro- Sub LoggingFunction() Dim nextCell As Integer If ThisWorkbook.Sheets(3).Cells(1, 1) = "" Then nextCell = 5 Else nextCell = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(3).Cells(1, 1) End If ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(nextCell, 1) = Now() ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(nextCell, 2) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Cells(3, 2) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(nextCell, 3) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Cells(4, 2) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(nextCell, 4) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Cells(5, 2) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(nextCell, 5) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Cells(6, 2) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(nextCell, 6) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Cells(7, 2) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(nextCell, 7) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Cells(8, 2) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(nextCell, 8) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(1).Cells(9, 2) nextCell = nextCell + 1 ThisWorkbook.Sheets(3).Cells(1, 1) = nextCell Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:15:00"), "LoggingFunction" Exit Sub End Sub "Clear Log" macro- Sub ClearLog() Dim i As Integer i = 5 For i = 5 To ThisWorkbook.Sheets(3).Cells(1, 1) ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(i, 1) = "" ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(i, 2) = "" ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(i, 3) = "" ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(i, 4) = "" ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(i, 5) = "" ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(i, 6) = "" ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(i, 7) = "" ThisWorkbook.Sheets(2).Cells(i, 8) = "" Next i ThisWorkbook.Sheets(3).Cells(1, 1) = "" Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:15:00"), "LoggingFunction" Schedule:=False End Sub Thanks for any help.
