I made a huge spyder Script, with multiple cells with the #%% Seperator. Those may be collapsed and expanded on the left sidebar.
Is it possible to load a script with all cells collapsed? Now i need to collapse them all manually.
See this picture all but one cell is collapsed:
I seeked the internet for the problem and also looked into the IDE Preferences.
I am trying to disable the cut function/button on the ribbon. I have a situation where there are a number of formulae that are reliant on data input cells. If those cells are cut and pasted elsewhere the formula follows the cell. I have disabled right click and keyboard shortcut but cannot disable the ribbon cut function. I downloaded a spreadsheet from another thread with a similar requirement which had no cut button on the Home ribbon but cannot see any code to show how it was achieved. Soooo! If anyone can help it would be awesome.
I have a worksheet in Excel 2010 that is protected and used as a form for user-fillable values. The form contains 80 cells to be filled in and two radio button form controls to be selected. The form consists of two pages on the worksheet that are placed side by side horizontally (horizontally is a better user experience than vertically in this situation).
To get tabbing to go through the cells on the first page and then on the second page in the desired order, I used the solution on page 4 of the thread at "http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2007-excel/establishing-enter-order-on-a-protected-sheet/e7a223f3-2dae-4c7b-a37f-1819c68be5dc". This works excellently for regular cells.
The problem is how can I also tab to the radio buttons, which are located about a third of the way through the desired tab sequence? Unfortunately, it's not as easy as just adding the radio button names to the TabOrder array mentioned in the thread.
I've found various threads talking about tabbing between controls, but nothing that solves tabbing from regular cells to form controls, between the form controls, and then back to regular cells.
I'm relatively new to Excel VBA programming and could really use your help. :-)
Thanks!

I can't add a comment, so I have to put this in the answer section even though it is not really an answer: Not sure if this is still an issue for you, but are you using Option Buttons or a Group Box. And are you using Form Controls or ActiveX.
The only thing that I have found that may help is to tab to the group itself, then use the arrow keys: "When you tab to the group, you can use the arrow keys to select the next/previous option." and "2. You can set an accelerator key on each one by adding an ampersand (&) before one letter in the label. For example, if the label's caption is "&Next", it will appear as "Next", and Alt-N will be the keystroke that selects that option. Be careful not to choose a keystroke that opens a menu -- for example, don't pick F, because Alt-F almost alway opens the File menu."

I upgraded to office 2007 from 2003 (I think) but now on a couple of documents I cant see all my tabs as the worksheet window goes well below the excel window. I cant move or resize the work sheet window, It's not protected. when I try click on the top bar of the worksheet window - here you would usually be able to drag it around I cant.
however if I select it in full screen mode i can see all the tabs.
I have checked the settings and "show tas" is ticked. I've googled for an hour and tried numerous things but to no avail.
If I try view as tiles It still doesn't change.
My only option left is to copy and past each sheet.. or is there a way to copy a wwhole work sheet tabs and all?
Please help!!
Thanks.
You simply need to double-click the title bar of the worksheet window. This will cause it to Maximize, which will make it fit to the exact size of the application window.
Workbook was protected. I went to review tab . took the protect workbook drop down and unselected protect.. worked as normal then!
Hope this helps someone!
Thanks!
Ok, so you know what a spreadsheet looks like when you open a new on in Excel; the borders are a light blue. These are only on the screen though, if you print the sheet it will not have borders. Say you've applied some various formatting to the sheet (background color, etc.) and those "default" borders are gone. My question is how to you get them back? Simply doing a Clear Formats will not always work.
Specifically I am talking about Excel 2007 but I believe all versions do this.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ryan
I had this issue, grid lines appeared to be missing on some cells.
Took me awhile to figure out that the color of those cells were white.
I clicked format cell, pattern and then selected "no color" (instead of white)
The the grid lines were visible again.
I hope this helps others as it took me a while to figure out why.
If you have applied border and/or fill on a cell, you need to clear both to go back to the default borders.
You may apply 'None' as the border option and expect the default borders to show, but it will not when the cell fill is white. It's not immediately obvious that it has a white fill, as unfilled cells are also white.
In this case, apply a 'No Fill' on the cells, and you will get the default borders back.
That's it. No messy format painting, no 'Clear Formats', none of those destructive methods. Easy, quick and painless.
Just go to Home> Cell Style > Normal

If you're trying to do this from within Excel (rather than programmatically), follow these steps:
From the "Orb" menu on the ribbon, click the "Excel Options" button near the bottom of the menu.
In the list of choices at the left, select "Advanced".
Scroll down until you see the heading "Display options for this worksheet".
Select the checkbox labeled "Show guidelines".
My best answer for this is to simply use format painter. This might be a bit of a pain, but it works rather well as the problem you are facing is that Gridlines are covered by fill and other effects that are layered on top. Imagine putting a piece of white paper on top of your grid, the grid lines are present underneath, but they just don't show.
So try:
Clicking on a cell in the spreadsheet with the format that you want
Under the ribons, go to Home and format painter, it should be a smaller icon near the paste button.
Now highlight any cell that you want to apply this format to and it will set the font, color, background etc. to the same as the cell selected. The value will be preserved.
From my experience this is the easiest way to do this quickly. Especially when pasting things in and out of excel.
Again this is not the programmatic way of solving this problem.
Another way, There is check box Page Layout tab with Gridlines [ ] View which should be checked.
you just need to change the line color and you can apply it without problem
I was having the same trouble with importing from Excel 2010 to Access, appending an "identical" table. Early on in the wizard it said not all my column names were valid, even though I checked them. It turns out that it saw an "empty" column with no column name. When I tried using the import wizard to create a new table instead, it worked. However, I noticed that it had added a blank column to the right of my data and called it "Field30". So I went back to the spreadsheet I was trying to import, selected the columns to the right of the data that I wanted, right-clicked and chose "clear contents." That did the trick and I was able to import the spreadsheet, appending it to my table.
In Excel 2016 for Mac, I clicked the Excel menu, then clicked Preferencesā¦
I then clicked the View icon.
whereupon I found a Gridlines Checkbox next to a Color Picker.
Regardless of whether the Gridlines checkbox os checked or not, if you change the color in the Color Picker dropdown menu, your cell borders will become that color. (I believe the change took place after i quit excel and opened the document the next day to continue working on it but I can't accurately remember.)
Changing the color picker back to Automatic will return your cell borders to the default (black) color on-the-fly.
N.B. Because I'm a newbie I cannot insert the screen shots I prepared ahead of time. š
I understand this is an old post. But it is programmable. Otherwise make sure your fill is set to "No Fill" and your boarders are set to "No Boarder" via the user interface shown in the previous posts.
Sub clear()
Range("A4:G1000").Borders.LineStyle = xlNone
Range("A4:G1000").Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
End Sub()
Select the cells that you need to affect the style and go to Home then click cell style and select Normal as show in the below snapshot
