The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

VBA PasteSpecial from different workbook!

Asked by haxko in Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software, Miscellaneous Programming

Tags: , , , ,

Hi!
I have a problem with special function 'PasteValues' are assigned to my regular paste functionality in Excel. It all works perfect as long as I stay in the same workbook but if I copy a value from a different workbook and try to paste this in the one where I have all  my code NOTHING is being copied. I even at one point tried to access the clipboard but that didn't work either... I have tried several options and none works so help would be apprecciated. Here's what I have so far.

From my module:
Public Sub PasteValues()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

    On Error Resume Next
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
   
    Application.CutCopyMode = False
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

From Thisworkbook:
Private Sub Workbook_Activate()

Dim XLApp As Application
Set XLApp = Application

    With XLApp
        'Disable CUT
        .CommandBars("Cell").FindControl(ID:=21).Enabled = False
        .CommandBars("Row").FindControl(ID:=21).Enabled = False
        .CommandBars("Column").FindControl(ID:=21).Enabled = False
        .CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=21).Enabled = False
        .CellDragAndDrop = True
        .OnKey "^x", ""
        .OnKey "^+X", ""

        'Only paste values
        .CommandBars("Cell").FindControl(ID:=22).OnAction = "PasteValues"
        .CommandBars("Row").FindControl(ID:=22).OnAction = "PasteValues"
        .CommandBars("Column").FindControl(ID:=22).OnAction = "PasteValues"
        .CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=22).OnAction = "PasteValues"
        .CommandBars("Cell").FindControl(ID:=755).Enabled = False
        .CommandBars("Row").FindControl(ID:=755).Enabled = False
        .CommandBars("Column").FindControl(ID:=755).Enabled = False
        .CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=755).Enabled = False
        .OnKey "^v", "PasteValues"
        .OnKey "^+V", "PasteValues"
    End With
   
End Sub

Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()

Dim XLApp As Application
Set XLApp = Application
 
    With XLApp
        'Restore Cut and Paste Special
        .CellDragAndDrop = True
        .CutCopyMode = True
        .OnKey "^x"
        .OnKey "^+X"
        .CommandBars("Cell").Reset
        .CommandBars("Row").Reset
        .CommandBars("Column").Reset
        .CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=21).Reset
        .CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=22).Reset
        .CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=755).Reset
        .OnKey "^v"
        .OnKey "^+V"
    End With
   
End Sub
