Add Button To Sheet & Assign Macro Code

Apr 2, 2008

how I can write code to create a button on a worksheets and then link to another subprocedure.

I tried recording a macro and this is what excel so eloquently gave me:

ActiveSheet.Buttons.Add(384.75, 60.75, 79.5, 39.75).Select
Selection.OnAction = "CreateImport"
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 1").Select
Selection.Characters.Text = "Parse Deposits for Import"
With Selection.Characters(Start:=1, Length:=25).Font
. Name = "Arial"
.FontStyle = "Regular"
.Size = 10
.Strikethrough = False
.Superscript = False
.Subscript = False
.OutlineFont = False
.Shadow = False
.Underline = xlUnderlineStyleNone
.ColorIndex = xlAutomatic
.TintAndShade = 0
.ThemeFont = xlThemeFontNone
End With

This works fine, my only problem is if the button that is created is actually named Button2 or 3, etc. Is there a way to assign the new button to a variable, or would it be an object? this way it wouldn't matter what it was named.

Assign 2 Macros To 1 Button (or Adding VBA Code To The Existing Macro)

Dec 23, 2009

I'm verrry new to editing VBA code and I've been trying to figure out how to send a column of data ("Min Data" AB3:AB21 from "Sheet1") to a worksheet ("F4" - Min) and sending another column of data ("Max Data" AC3:AC21 from "Sheet1") to a different worksheet ("F4" - Max) by using only the one button ("Record Data" from "Sheet1"

I've been trying to figure out ways to edit the VBA in "Module 1" to make this work

Can anyone help me out here? If what i'm asking for isn't clear enough, just let me know and i'll try to explain in more detail.

How Do I Assign A Code To A Button

Aug 26, 2007

I have had the following written for me


Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
For Each Cell In Target
If Cell.Column = 4 and Cell.row >= 17 and Cell.row <= 20 Then
If Cell <>"" Then
Cell.Offset(0, 3) = Date
Else
Cell.Offset(0, 3) = ""
End If
End If
Next Cell
End Sub

I wish to assign that code to a button on sheet 1.

I normally just right click the buitton and assign the macro, but on this occasion I can't. I think it's to do with it being a private sub.

VBA Assign Macro To Button From Different File

Nov 22, 2005

I have to modify 2000 files so I've written a master file that loops through a list, importing modules and forms into the 2000 files it opens and closes. On each file when open it draws a button on worksheet. I then want to assign a macro to the button called "ModifyMenu" . The code for 'Modifymenu' is imported into file_01.xls and is a unique name. It does not exist is master.xls, so no confusion.

The code for assigning the code is as follows :

Windows("file_01.xls").Activate
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button").Select
or
Workbooks("file_01.xls").Sheets("1 B").Shapes("Button").Select

Then

Selection.OnAction = "ModifyMenu"
(This links to master.xls!ModifyMenu not file_01.xls)

Selection.OnAction = "file_01.xls!ModifyMenu"
(This fails, runtime 1004. 'Unable to set the OnAction property of the button class)

Selection.OnAction = ThisWorkbook.Name & "!ModifyMenu"
(This links to master. MAster is the active code even though 'file_01.xls' is the active worksheet)

Variations on the above seem to result in the same 1004 error or linking back to master regardless of the fact I'm trying to link to file_01.xls.

Can't Assign Shortcut To Macro: 'Options...' Button Disabled

Feb 23, 2010

I'm trying to assign a shortcut to a macro I wrote in VB. However, when I go to Tools->Macros->Macros, none of my macros (whether coded in VB or recorded) have the "Options..." button enabled, so I can't assign the macro. This happens whether I use Excel 2003 or Excel 2007. The file is not readonly and I have tried the various levels of macro security. I have VBA installed.

Macro To Assign Task Description To New Sheet?

Jan 8, 2013

User inputs cost in a cell then clicks macro button that will run a macro that ask for a task description. The user inputs the task info that relates to the cost (i.e. weld pipe). This data is stored on a seperate sheet in the corresponding cell (cost is on sheet "hours" and task description is on sheet "task description" both in same cell. This allows a copy of the cost sheet to reflect the task description. I have tried recording macros but can't get anywhere.

Copy/paste-button - Wrong Reference Code In Sheet 2

Jul 8, 2009

i have a button that copies data from cell
A5:K5, and pastes it in Sheet2 of my workbook.

The data is ordered like this

------
------
------ button1

------
------
------ button2

------
------
------ buttonX

I have like 40 buttons attached to 4 rows each. And in that group of rows, i have some cells with an IF= formula, and some minor coding.
The problem is: If i press button 3,4,17,29 before i press every other button before that. I get an reference code fail at the cell.

If i press the buttons in order. Like 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 - it appears smoothly.

More info: The button copies data from for example A5:K5 and pastes it into the next blank row of sheet2. But i want to be able to press button 2 before i press button1, without getting an error in my =IF cell.

If i press the 40 buttons in a row, and then starts to mix up the button pressing. It appears smoothly.

Vba To Have Command Button Click Assign Number To Another Userform

Dec 23, 2013

Userform2 is popped up from another userform3.

How can I have userform 3 when clicked fill in a textbox on userform2 and then finally assign it to cell F3 on my worksheet.

VB:
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()End Sub

So I need commandbutton2 (which needs to retain a value of 1` when clicked ) on Userform3 to assign the value of 1 to TextBox44 (Which is using control Source F3 so the value here ends up in F3

VB:
Private Sub TextBox44_Change()
If TextBox44 > 5 Then
MsgBox "Your entry must be part between 1 and 5", vbCritical
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub

Button Corresponding With Macro Located On Different Sheet Than Data

Aug 11, 2009

I currently have a button on a worksheet that loads a userform. I have code written that's not in a in a separate module but in the user form itself. It uses the information entered on the user form screen. When I try to reference data that's on a sheet other than the one that the button is located on, I get a "select method of range class failed" error. I assume that this problem has to do with the button macro being located on a different sheet than the data. Is there an easy fix?
