How to use a Macro to Auto-Scroll
Requirement:
The user's problem is that they are using an aplication to read the data in the TCP/IP port and send it to excel using DDE(Dynamic Data Exchange).
The aplication is "TWedge", so what the user needs is a macro to keep seeing the data on the screen when new data is placed in a row because the program does not simulate keystrokes.
The user has tried this code, but it only works when the user himself/herself executes it:
Sub Scroll()
Dim i As Long: i = 1
Do While Len(Cells(i, "A").Value2) > 0
ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = i
i = i + 1
Loop
End Sub
Solution:
You could use an event macro :
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Application.Goto Range("A" & Target.Row), True
End Sub
