I'm trying to get a handle on 'Deactivate'. My biggest problem are the users that forget to update the worksheet. I've been using the Command button and here is the code. It works but only when the users hit it. Sigh...
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Addr = ActiveCell.Address
    ActiveSheet.Unprotect "4wink"
    Range("A:E").Copy
    Range("K:O").Select
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
    Range("A3:E75").ClearContents
    Range("G1:G75").Select
    Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("G1"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlGuess, _
        OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, _
        DataOption1:=xlSortNormal
    Selection.Copy
    Range("A2").Select
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
    Range("I1:I75").Select
    Application.CutCopyMode = False
    Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("I1"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlNo, _
        OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, _
        DataOption1:=xlSortNormal
    Selection.Copy
    Range("A150").Select
    Selection.End(xlUp).Select
    ActiveCell.Offset(2).Select
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
    Application.CutCopyMode = False
    Range("$C2") = "=IF(A2="""","""",INDEX($M:$M,MATCH($A2,$K:$K,0)))"
    Range("$D2") = "=IF(B2="""","""",INDEX($N:$N,MATCH($A2,$K:$K,0)))"
    Range("$E2") = "=IF(C2="""","""",INDEX($O:$O,MATCH($A2,$K:$K,0)))"
    Dim lastRow As Long
    lastRow = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
    Range("B2:E2").AutoFill Destination:=Range("B2:E" & lastRow)
    Range("C:E").Copy
    Range("C1").Select
    Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
        :=False, Transpose:=False
    Columns("C:E").Replace What:="#N/A", Replacement:=""
    Columns("C:E").Replace What:="0", Replacement:=""
    Columns("K:O").Delete
    Range(Addr).Select
    ActiveSheet.Protect "4wink", DrawingObjects:=False, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

I've been trying to write a different one for the deactivate but I just can't seem to get it. Any help would be appreciated. I think I'm having problems with 'selection' and how I can't use it if the user is trying to get to another worksheet.

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Deactivate()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    With Sheet3
        .Unprotect "4wink"
        .Range("A:E").Copy
        .Range("K:O").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
        .Range("A3:E75").ClearContents
        .Range("G1:G75").Sort Key1:=Range("G1"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlGuess, OrderCustom:=1, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, DataOption1:=xlSortNormal
        .Range("G1:G75").Copy
        .Range("A2").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
        .Range("I1:I75").Sort Key1:=Range("I1"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlNo, OrderCustom:=1, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, DataOption1:=xlSortNormal
        .Range("I1:I75").Copy
        .Range("A150").End(xlUp).ActiveCell.Offset(2).Select
        .PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
        .Application.CutCopyMode = False
        .Range("$C2") = "=IF(A2="""","""",INDEX($M:$M,MATCH($A2,$K:$K,0)))"
        .Range("$D2") = "=IF(B2="""","""",INDEX($N:$N,MATCH($A2,$K:$K,0)))"
        .Range("$E2") = "=IF(C2="""","""",INDEX($O:$O,MATCH($A2,$K:$K,0)))"
    End With
        Dim lastRow As Long
        lastRow = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
    With Sheet3
        .Range("B2:E2").AutoFill Destination:=Range("B2:E" & lastRow)
        .Range("C:E").Copy
        .Range("C1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
        .Columns("C:E").Replace What:="#N/A", Replacement:=""
        .Columns("C:E").Replace What:="0", Replacement:=""
        .Columns("K:O").Delete
        .Protect "4wink", DrawingObjects:=False, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True
    End With
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
Re: Help with Worksheet Deactivate

Try
Code:
.Range("A150").End(xlUp).Offset(2).PasteSpecial xlPasteValues

Re: Help with Worksheet Deactivate

I'm still have the same problem. I'm getting a "Run-time error '1004' The cell is being protected. The code stops at line...
.Range("A3:E75").ClearContents

Re: Help with Worksheet Deactivate

I'm using the following code on another sheet and am having to problems. I don't see why the problem would be occurring.

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Deactivate()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
        With Sheet5
         .Unprotect "4wink"
         .Range("I1:I500").Sort Key1:=.Range("I2"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlGuess, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom
         .Range("D1:D500").Sort Key1:=.Range("D2"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlGuess, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom
         .Range("E2:E500").ClearContents
         .Range("E2") = "=IF(D2="""","""",COUNTIF(Galleys!$B$21:$AS$65,D2)+SUMPRODUCT((Galleys!$B$20:$AS$20=""LARGE"")*(Galleys!$B$21:$AS$65=D2)))"
         .Range("E2").AutoFill Destination:=.Range("E2:E" & .Cells(.Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Row)
    End With
    With Sheet2
        .CommandButton1.Caption = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Disciplines").Range("$A2")
        .CommandButton3.Caption = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Disciplines").Range("$A3")
        .CommandButton4.Caption = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Disciplines").Range("$A4")
        .CommandButton2.Caption = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Disciplines").Range("$A5")
        .CommandButton6.Caption = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Disciplines").Range("$A6")
        .CommandButton7.Caption = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Disciplines").Range("$A7")
        .CommandButton11.Caption = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Disciplines").Range("$A8")
    End With
    Application.CutCopyMode = False
    
    Sheet5.Protect "4wink"
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

You modified something in the code. Do you have another macro running on the sheet or on another sheet or in the book?

Re: Help with Worksheet Deactivate

you can run the macros without protecting the sheet, just to rule out problems

Re: Help with Worksheet Deactivate

I ran the code you suggested in a brand new workbook and still code the protection code error. Then I took out the lines
.Unprotect "4wink"
and
.Protect "4wink", DrawingObjects:=False, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True
I tried the code then and it the sheet went into an endless loop. I had to ctrl-Alt Del to get it to stop. I'm totally lost as to why.

Re: Help with Worksheet Deactivate

What happens if you replace
Code:
With Sheet3
with
Code:
With Me

Re: Help with Worksheet Deactivate

Continuing with the original macro, try this, to avoid the loop.


Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Deactivate()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim lastRow As Long
    On Error GoTo AcEvents
[COLOR=#0000ff]    Application.EnableEvents = False[/COLOR]
    With Sheet3
        .Unprotect "4wink"
        .Range("A:E").Copy
        .Range("K:O").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
        .Range("A3:E75").ClearContents
        .Range("G1:G75").Sort Key1:=.Range("G1"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlGuess, OrderCustom:=1, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, DataOption1:=xlSortNormal
        .Range("G1:G75").Copy
        .Range("A2").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
        .Range("I1:I75").Sort Key1:=.Range("I1"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlNo, OrderCustom:=1, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, DataOption1:=xlSortNormal
        .Range("I1:I75").Copy
        .Range("A150").End(xlUp).Offset(2).PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
        
        .Range("$C2") = "=IF(A2="""","""",INDEX($M:$M,MATCH($A2,$K:$K,0)))"
        .Range("$D2") = "=IF(B2="""","""",INDEX($N:$N,MATCH($A2,$K:$K,0)))"
        .Range("$E2") = "=IF(C2="""","""",INDEX($O:$O,MATCH($A2,$K:$K,0)))"
        lastRow = .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
        .Range("B2:E2").AutoFill Destination:=.Range("B2:E" & lastRow)
        .Range("C:E").Copy
        .Range("C1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=False, Transpose:=False
        .Columns("C:E").Replace What:="#N/A", Replacement:=""
