Excel 2013 Date Popup

Hello,
I would like to create a way to allow a calendar popup in a specific cell in Excel 2013. I have searched through many forums, but I cant find anything relating directly to 2013.
I just want to click a cell and have a calendar popup and when I click a date, it will insert into that cell. I have read many things about the activex control for the date time picker, but that is unavailable in 2013.
Please help.

Hi,
We may need to use UserForm and insert Microsoft MonthView Control 6.0 (SP6) to do that.
Then write some vba code to MonthView1_DageClick event:
Private Sub MonthView1_DageClick  (ByVal DateClicked As Date)
ActiveCell.Value = DateClicked
End Sub
Then use a macro to show the form, the form name is Calendar.
Sub ShowCalendar ()
Calendar.Show False
End Sub
Then add the macro to the Quick Access bar, select the cell which need to select the date, then run the macro, that's OK.

  • Excel 2013 Data From Web not working with SharePoint 2013?

    In Excel 2013, on the ribbon select the 'Data' tab and 'From Web' to import data from a web page. Navigate to a SharePoint 2013 site with a table on the home page and you will not see the table import arrow on the table. With SharePoint 2010 you would have.
    Any suggestions on a workaround/fix?
    One thing to note, in SharePoint 2013 be sure to disable the Minimum Download Strategy feature on the site or you will get script errors in the New Web Query dialog.
    Also, I realize this may belong in an Office/Excel forum so I have posted it there also.
    Thanks, Fintan

    Hi Fintan ,
    According to your description, my understanding is that the Excel table import arrow   disappears  in the  SharePoint 2013 page.
    For your issue , I can reproduce your scenario in my SharePoint 2013 environment. It should be caused by the Excel  Data connection from web page feature cannot identify the page layout  which is
    used by SharePoint 2013 . For a workaround, you export the HTML table using jQuery:

  • Excel 2013 data connection to SharePoint list - charts won't update unless i manually refresh

    I have a list called 'donations', and a connected workbook stored in an SP Document Library. On my sitepages homepage, I put an excel web part connected to a chart called "Total Donations". 
    I'm storing the Data Connection file on a Windows shared drive and I've given my Excel service account R/O to that drive. I'm using the Secure Store Service for my data connection, and it's refreshing data (but only when I open the Excel document).
    I think this is because I've set the data connection properties to 'Enable background refresh', and 'Refresh data connection when opening', and 'refresh this connection on Refresh all'. 
    When I do a refresh from the web part on the home page, nothing updates :(  Anyone want to point me in the right direction?  I was going down the rabbit hole on PowerPivot services (thinking cannon to kill a fly), but couldn't find anything relating
    to this particular use case.
    P.S. I don't want to use the 2010 Chart Part because it's a POS.
    Anyway, any direction would be helpful.  Thanks.

    Did you try this

  • Excel 2013 Popup Calendar

    There used to be a calendar control in older versions of Excel that would popup a calendar when a particular cell was selected. There now doesn't seem to be a calendar control in Excel 2013 or am I missing something somewhere?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You can download Windows Common Controls-2 6.0 from link below:
    http://activex.microsoft.com/controls/vb6/MSCOMCT2.CAB
    Microsoft Windows Common Controls-2 6.0 includes the following ActiveX controls:
    Microsoft Animation Control
    Microsoft UpDown Control
     Microsoft MonthView Control
     Microsoft Date and Time Picker Control
     Microsoft Flat ScrollBar Control
    For registering mscomct2.ocx: 
           Extract mscomct2.ocx from MSCOMCT2.CAB to C:\windows\system32 (windows 32 OS) or C:\windows\SysWOW64 (Windows 64)
    After registering you can use Microsoft MonthView Control like below:
          a) Add calendar control to a userform
    b) Add MonthView1_DateClick by double click the calendar control:
    Private Sub MonthView1_DateClick(ByVal DateClicked As Date)
    On Error Resume Next
    'replace your code here for set cell value
    Application.Cells(1, 1).Value = DateClicked
    Unload Me
    End Sub
    c) Add worksheet change event:
    Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
    If Target.Value = "popCalendar" Then
    CalendarForm.Show
    End If
    End Sub
    d) Click cell A5 will show the calendar like below:
    Have a nice day.

  • Powerpivot 2013 doesn't work on Excel 2013 / Office 365: data model issue

    Hi guys
    I recently upgraded my Office 2010 to Office 365, with Excel 2013. Before installing Office 365 I uninstalled Office 2010. I'm running Windows 8 64 bits.
    I have the Powerpivot 2013 add-in, I can activate it without any issue. However when I click on "manage" on any spreadsheet (including new empty ones) I have an error "We
    couldn't load the Data Model.  This may be because the Data Model in this workbook is damaged.", followed by "PowerPivot is unable to load the Data Model".
    I tried to repair the installation to no avail. I tried to launch excel in admin mode, nothing better.
    This issue seems to be shared by some other people on this forum but
    with no satisfactory answer so far.
    I had a SQL server 2012 plugin installed previously which I uninstalled as well, but no change.
    Would you think of something else?
    Thanks

  • Excel 2013 PowerPivot Error - "PowerPivot is unable to load the Data Model"

    I'm attempting to use the PowerPivot add-on in Excel.  When clicking 'Manage Data Model' or attempting to 'Load to data model,' I receive the error 'We couldn't load the Data Model.  This may be because the Data Model in this workbook is damaged.',
    followed by 'PowerPivot is unable to load the Data Model.'  This happens irrespective of data source type.  I have Excel 2013 32-bit, PowerPivot 32-bit, running on Windows 7 OS 64-bit.  I am not running an SSAS instance on my machine. 
    Any suggestions?

    Hi
    Have you ever tried to repair your office?
    Also we may refer to the following blog :

    This issue seems to be caused by the October 2013 update (KB 2825655) for Excel 2013. Try to remove it or restore the system to an earlier point and check the result.

    Hello,
    Recently I am not able to use PowerPivot for Excel 2013 and I cannot connect to my Access 2013 database tables from within Excel 2013. Whenever I try to click on a slicer in my Excel worksheet, it gives me the following error: "Excel was unable to load
    a necessary component. This component might have been damaged or deleted. Reinstall the client software or data source driver software for your database."
    I am using Microsoft Office Pro Plus 2013 on Windows 7, 64-bit version. I have tried reinstalling Microsoft SQL Compact Edition 2005 and reinstalling Office 2013. I have run out of ideas and am a loss what to do next ? 
    Can anyone help point in the right direction for a possible solution to this problem ??? 
    Would appreciate all help.

  • How To Make Shapes Change Colors When Clicking on them. Example Sheet Sales Data.xlsx template with Excel 2013

    My question is related to the Sales Data.xlsx template that comes with Excel 2013
    IN this workbook is a sheet named Sales Data. It has, 3 shapes. One each for each of the tab sheets in the workbook. When I click on the 'Sales Report' shape it selects the sales report tab. When you do this the shape changes color and the 'Sales Data' shape
    also changes color.
    However I'm unable to figure out how the colors are changing. 
    I don't see any macros in the workbook/worksheet. Nor do I see any code for worksheet events. I don't see any modules in VBA either. I think what is happening is that there are 2 shapes. When you click on one, the one shape goes to the background and the
    other one comes to the foreground.
    I'm no sure how it's doing that. 
    Can someone look at this template, Sales Data.xlsx that comes with Excel and explain how this functionality works?
    Thank You
    Keith Aul
    Keith Aul

    The shapes are exactly as I suspected, each of 3 sheets has 3 'navigation' shapes. The shape with the same name as the sheet has no hyperlink and is coloured differently to indicate it refers to the active sheet. The other two have hyperlinks linked to respective
    sheets. 3x3 shapes, 9 in total, none of them ever change colour!
    It's logical though not necessary to name each shape same as the sheet it links to, but they'd work just as well with their original default names.
    For aesthetics, the shapes that refer to own sheet have a horizontal line on top, actually two shapes as a group.
    If still confused copy each set of 3 shapes to a 4th sheet, or open two new windows so you can see all three sheets at the same time.

  • Date and Cost formats in export toward Excel (2013)

    Hi,
    I'm trying to export Start date and Cost of my project tasks to Excel:
    File/Save as/ Excel Workbook...
    but all these date and cost data arrive in Excel with Text format. With the 2003 version, date and cost formats were well recognized.
    I'm using Project 2013 English and Excel 2013 English on a French Win 7.
    What are the settings (decimal separator...) which are needed to allow this feature ?
    Thanks

    Hi Julie,
    Thanks for your help.
    The "Convert to Number" feature works fine for the Cost.
    But the dates arrive as text with a long format such as "03 August 2015 08:00" and the  =DateValue(Cell
    reference) function returns an error : #VALUE!
    Any idea to retrieve the dates?
    Thanks again

  • Excel 2013 Powerpivot datamodel error with DATE formula

    Hello forum users and Excel guru's alike.
    I have a question relating the datamodel in Excel 2013 Powerpivot. I am using a Dutch version of Excel (on Office 365) but formula's in Datamodel are all in English so I think most of you will understand the issue:
    What I want to do: Take a date and adjust this date to incorparate a number of months that is added in a other column.
    Example:
    Start of contract date: 24-5-2014 (this is a date field in the datamodel and it is called [StartContract])
    Contract duration in months: 10 (this is a number field in the datamodel and it is called [DurationInMonths])
    Output: 24-03-2015
    (this is the calculated field that doesn't work)
    My current formula looks like this:
    =DATE(YEAR([StartContract]);MONTH([StartContract]+[DurationInMonths]);DAY([StartContract]))
    It shows an error as soon as I hit Enter. The formula works fine when I replace [DurationInMonths] with the value "10" or when I leave out "+[DurationInMonths]". But that isn't an option!
    The following variation also doesn't work.
    =DATE(YEAR([StartContract]);MONTH([StartContract])+[DurationInMonths];DAY([StartContract]))
    Please, is there any one with a solution?
    Kind regards,
    Erik van Hurck

    Hi Tony,
    I have tried your solution, to no succes I am sad to say.
    I do agree that the formula works in Excel, but now switch over to the
    PowerPivot Data model and try the formula there. And it will repport an error:
    =DATE(year([StartDate]);month([StartDate]+[DurationInMonths]);DAY([StartDate]))
    is the formula I used in the Datamodel.
    The DurationInMonths field is:
    Whole numbers and formatted as: General
    The StartDate is:
    Auto (Date) and formatted as: Short Date
    For more Information I get this error:
    Cannot query internal supporting structures for column "EndDate" because they depend on a column, relationship, or measure that is not processed. please refresh or recalculate the model. Maybe this link will help further:

  • Excel 2013 crashes when creating VFP OLE DB Data connection

    Hi all,
    I don't know how often the DBF format is used in Office but it seems some demand still exists because Microsoft created 64 bit version of dBase ODBC and OLE DB driver (in Access data engine). Then I don't understand why Microsoft ignores its own FoxPro
    DBF data format because FoxPro ODBC driver is not supported already and no 64 bit version of VFP OLE DB driver is planned...
    I am testing DBF file import to Excel 2013 (32 bit) but it crashes instantly. I have VFP OLE DB driver (the last version), some small DBF file, and I am trying to read it as external data in Excel.
    Steps to reproduce (menu prompts are translated, so some differences may occur):
    Open empty worksheet
    Click "Other data sources" on Data ribbon
    Select Data Connection Wizard and from the list of available drivers select "Other" and click "Next"
    A list of OLE DB providers installed appears, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro and click "Next >>"
    Excel 2013 crashes...
    This process works in Excel 2010 and 2007 so the problem must be in Excel 2013...
    The question is how to read DBF data in FoxPro format when there is no older Office version available?

    To connect to a Visual FoxPro database or table in Excel
    Open an Excel worksheet.
    From the Data menu, point to Import External Data, and click
    Import Data.
    In the Select Data Source dialog box, click New Source Data Connection.
    In the Data Connection Wizard, select Other/Advanced.
    In the Provider tab, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro.
    The Connection tab in the Data Link Properties dialog box appears.
    To connect to a Visual FoxPro database or table in Word
    Open a Word document.
    From the View menu, point to Toolbars, and click
    Database.
    On the Database toolbar, click the Insert Database icon.
    In the Database dialog box, click Get Data.
    In the Select Data Source dialog box, click New Source Data Connection.
    In the Data Connection Wizard, select Other/Advanced.
    In the Provider tab, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro.
    The Connection tab in the Data Link Properties dialog box appears.
    To add a Visual FoxPro database or table folder
    On the Connection tab and in the Select or enter a database name box, type path and name of the database or table folder you want. 
    -or- 
    To browse for a Visual FoxPro database or table folder, click the ellipsis (...) button to the right of the
    Select or enter a database name box to open the Configure Connection dialog box.
    Specify a different collating sequence if desired.
    To test the connection, click Test Connection. If connection is successful, click
    OK.
