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 to copy worksheet to another workbook

Asked by Sandi1 in VB Script, Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software

Tags:

Hi All - Another forum member (thanks P.K.) was kind enough to provide me with the following code.  As luck would have it, i have had to restructure my workbook and need to revise the code.  Would appreciate your assistance!

- The code will be run from the active workbook, sheet named "MGR_REPORT" (previously this was a named range).  I modified original code to include:  Sheets("MGR_REPORT").Select and i assume this is fine because job does not crash at this point.
- The MGR_REPORT sheet is protected so i added the line ActiveSheet.Unprotect.  I assume this is correct as the job is not crashing at this particular point. This is required because the MGR_REPORT is protected and in order to copy/paste special/value i need to unprotect.
- previous requirement was to copy/paste special values from range.  As the MGR_REPORT worksheet has formulas, i need to include a similar form of copy/paste special values.  This line is currently giving me an error msg ("pastespecial method of range class failed".

So what is happening now, is that a new workbook opens (with default "Book1" name) and data is not being copied over.

Sorry for botching this up!

Thanks
