Desperately seeking some help! (Please)
I have had some trouble on a project I have been working on for
some time. I have tried numerous approaches, each with undesired results. (VAB Code) The project I am working on has become quite complex, so rather than bother you with my spaghetti code, I have made a simple example of what I am trying to do. http://www.geocities.com/rockytophubby\sample.html The sheet tracks People and how many fruits they had each day. Day1 is where the information is Inputted, Day2 will double the DAY1 numbers, and Day three will triple the DAY2 Numbers. The challenge I am faced with: On DAY1 every time ANY information is inputted (even if there is no name) have a new Row AUTO inserted for the next person on ALL three days. (Keeping in mind each day has different formulas, so the Formatting and Formulas must be copied from the line above it on each sheet.) ANY help I can get here would be greatly appreciated, as I know this is no task for a beginner... |

Hi Peter
based on your simple example here's some code (which could probably be cleaned up a bit but i've left it rather longwinded in case you need to edit it) which when assigned to a button on the form adds the new lines to each sheet then prompts for the name & number of each type of fruit for the starting day. You could name the worksheet button "ADD NEW PERSON" or similar Sub AddNewRecord() Rows("3:5").Select Selection.Copy ActiveCell.SpecialCells(xlLastCell).Select ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select Sheets(Array("Day1", "Day2", "Day3")).Select Sheets("Day1").Activate ActiveSheet.Paste Selection.End(xlToLeft).Select ActiveCell.Offset(2, 1).Select ActiveCell.Value = InputBox("Enter name", "Enter name") Sheets("Day2").Select Sheets("Day1").Select ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1) = InputBox("Enter number of apples.", "Apples") ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2) = InputBox("Enter number of oranges.", "Oranges") ActiveCell.Offset(0, 3) = InputBox("Enter number of grapes.", "Grapes") Application.CutCopyMode = False End Sub Please post back if you need assistance getting the code in the right place or linked to the button or talking about something other than fruit! Hope this helps Cheers JulieD "Peter Long" wrote in message ... I have had some trouble on a project I have been working on for some time.

Hi Peter
to use the code, right mouse click on a sheet tab and choose view code on the left of the VBE window you should see the project explorer with your workbook name in bold (if you can't see this choose view / project explorer) then under this you should see Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3, ThisWorkbook ... as this code is run via a button it needs to go in a module sheet - ensure that you're clicked on your workbook name on the left and choose insert / module ... this will appear under ThisWorkbook as module1 ... double click on it and a white sheet of paper should be displayed on the right, copy & paste the code into there. as for having the code "autorun" based on some field's contents - this can be done ... what field & what value do you want to "initiate" the code? Cheers JulieD "Peter Long" wrote in message ... Thanks for the effort Julie, I would perfer to not use a button to more rows, but rather use some type of value check on input row to auto add rows. You efforts have not been wasted though, I will hold on to your code and review it step by step for future refrence. ( I am pretty new to Excel proggraming, but have done quite a bit of C++ and pascal programing) I am eager to learn more....where would the code you send normaly be put?

I wanted a new line inserted if ANY of the values are entered
under the last blank rows under Family or friends. (Added to EACH day) Because of the formulas on each day are different, and could also be different for Friends and family, I would want to copy the Cells above it on each sheet independently. On DAY1 - Entering 2 on C5 DAY1 = Insert Blank Row at ROW6 (copied from DAY1 Row5) DAY2 = Insert Blank Row at ROW6 (copied from DAY2 Row5) DAY3 = Insert Blank Row at ROW6 (copied from DAY3 Row5) On DAY1 - Entering 6 on D8 DAY1 = Insert Blank Row at ROW9 (copied from DAY1 Row8) DAY2 = Insert Blank Row at ROW9 (copied from DAY2 Row8) DAY3 = Insert Blank Row at ROW9 (copied from DAY3 Row8) This way I could have different Formulas and Cell formats on each DAY and for each section of Friends and family copied. I would want this to continue endlessly. (I hope this explains well enough what I am trying to do….) I am actually working on 3 projects, each requiring this type of line coping and inserting. This has me stumped on all three :-< If I can get it working on this sample spread sheet, I can adapt it work on all three.

Hi Peter
the problem i'm struggling with is that i can't figure out how to tell excel that you've entered a value in the "last" blank cell of a section. I'm thinking along the lines of a worksheet_change event and dynamic named ranges where when the sheet is opened the number of cells in each range is calculated and then if the range size changes (ie you enter another value in) then the copy & paste event happens. Sounds great, but then we have the problem of storing the range sizes somewhere as once code terminates the variables loose their "memory" - are you happy to have a hidden 'junk' sheet to store this information on?- that's if someone else reading this post doesn't have a better idea.

I had thought about the Hidden worksheet to store variable values in,
but just seems like there should be an easier way. Although I am fairly new to excel, I have some background in Programming. I can follow the logic easy enough, but have some trouble with the commands and syntax. Here is an idea I though of this morning… If I Put a hidden Word "END" in the Cell A under the Last empty cell (Font same as Background) ---After ANY cell value is changed on DAY1 Perform the following checks: =================================== ----VAR--- CURRENTROW = Current row of the Cell value that was just changed CURRENT = Status of Current row Values { Full, Empty, None } BELOW = Status of Next row Values { Full, Empty, None } ----FORMULAS---- CHECKSTATUS (CHECK = ROW TO CHECKED) IF COUNTBLANK(CHECKB:CHECKE) < 4 Then return FULL ** IF CELL ( ROW = CHECK , Column =A ) = "END" Then Return value NONE Else return value EMPTY ----Code---- ASSIGN CURRENT = CHECKSTATUS (CURRENT) BLEOW = CHECKSTATUS (CURRENT+1) If (CURRENT = EMPTY) AND (BELOW = FULL) THEN delete Row (CURRENTROW on EACH SHEET) If (CURRENT = FULL) AND (BELOW = NONE) Then Copy current Row DAY1 (Formulas and Formatting) and Insert at CURRENT +1 Copy current Row DAY2 (Formulas and Formatting) and Insert at CURRENT +1 Copy current Row DAY3 (Formulas and Formatting) and Insert at CURRENT +1 =================================== ** Another way, instead of using the word END: (This might be a "Cleaner" method) Compare the formatting to the row above it, if it is not the same, then we know to return the Value NONE else return the value EMPTY. The logic seems to be tight here, but now actually converting it to code…..I am lost on LOL. If someone could help out on this part and Email it to me (My email is on the original web set of the Sample.xls ) I can post it on that web site in case others would like to see it as well.
