How to change a macro while running others?
Hello
I have one excel file where the uer has to make selections in 4 steps: 1st step 7 options 2nd step 10 options 3rd step 2 options 4th step 3 options So, at the end, the user has 420 possible combinations. I don't want to have 420 macros, but only one per option (so, 22). I would like to create a macro that is run at the end that could be Sub Final() Call Step1.a Call Step2.c Call Step3.a Call Stelp4.d End Sub() But this macro would be created/written the user makes his choices... Is this possible? Can anyone help me on doing this? Thanks |

Surely, you would just create one macro with 4 arguments, pass the selected
options as parameters to the macro, and act within the macro according to the values of the arguments. -- HTH RP (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "MJO" wrote in message ...

How do the options affect the logic of the macro(s) i.e. how does the
selection value determine what each step does?

How to change a macro while running others?
I am not sure I understood your question... each step is sequential (one uses
filters, other hides columns, other uses filters on a different column, ...) and I have all the "small" macros running. This is what I have now: When the user selects the option in step 1, the macro runs. And the same happens for step 2, 3 and 4. So, the user has to "see" macros running. This is the reason why I would like to call these 4 macros from only one. This way the user could do the selections and then at the end go to the selected analysis "Toppers" wrote: How do the options affect the logic of the macro(s) i.e. how does the selection value determine what each step does?

If you name your macros with numbers
You could do something like this pseudo code Dim v(1 to 4) for i = 1 to 4 v(i) = 12 Next ' React to Step 1 Select Case Step1_Value if 100 v(1) = 1 if 200 v(1) = 6 End Select ' React to Step 2 Select Case Step2_Value Case 15 v(2) = 3 Case 20 v(2) = 4 end Select ' react to Step 3 Select Case Step3_Value Case "A" v(3) = 5 Case "B" v(3) = 10 End Select ' React to Step 4 Select Case Step4_Value Case "MI" v(4) = 2 Case "XYZ" v(4) = 8 End Select for i = 1 to 4 Application Run "Macro" & v(i) Next Or you could put macro names in the array or whatever. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "MJO" wrote in message ...
