Microsoft Excel - Event listener in MS Excel
Asked By Pete Bradshaw
10-Feb-12 05:46 AM
Hi,
I'm trying to set up an event listener in Excel that will trigger when the calculation mode is changed.
In a class module, I've declared Private WithEvents XLApp As Application and initialize it using Set XLApp = Application.
From here I can set up events that look out for new workbooks opening etc, but can't see where the calculation method is.
Is there anyway to look out for a change in calculation from manual to auto?
Cheers
Pete

Hi,
events are notices that objects broadcast in response to something
that happens, such as a property value changing or a user interaction
with an application program. Listeners execute functions when notification
of the event of interest occurs. You can use events to communicate
things that happen in your program to other objects, which then can
respond to these events by executing the listener's callback function.
When using events and listeners:
-
Only handle classes
can define events and listeners (See Naming Events for syntax).
-
Call the handle notify method to trigger the event (See Triggering Events, and Defining and Triggering an Event, for
examples). The event notification broadcasts the named event to all
listeners registered for this event.
-
Use the handle addlistener method to associate a listener
with an object that will be the source of the event (Listening to Events, Creating a Listener for the Overflow Event, and Creating a Listener for the Property Event).
-
When adding a listener, pass a function handle for
the listener callback function using a syntax such as the following:
-
addlistener(eventObject,'EventName',@functionName) —
for an ordinary function.
-
addlistener(eventObject,'EventName',@Obj.methodName) —
for a method of Obj.
-
addlistener(eventObject,'EventName',@ClassName.methodName) —
for a static method of the class ClassName.
-
Listener callback functions must define at least two
input arguments — the event source object handle and the event
data (See Defining Listener Callback Functions for more information).
-
You can modify the data passed to each listener callback
by subclassing the event.EventData class
(See Defining Event-Specific Data)
and Defining the Event Data for
more information).

but I don't know how to implement it into a select. I'm using Excel Microsoft query to do so. What I would love to do is something based on a calender in excel but I think it would make things too complicated for now. Thanks a bunch!
