Add Combo Box Item To List Box

Dec 1, 2007

I use ComboBox to add items to the ListBox in userform

I am tring to loop through the ListBox to check each name in the ListBox, so ifthe name chosen by the ComboBox exists in the ListBox then donot add it,
but both codes do check the number of the item in the ListBox.

I need to check the name of the item?


With ListBox1
For i = 1 To ListBox1.Value
If i = ComboBox1.Value Then MsgBox "u cannot add this item"
Exit Sub
Next i

For i = LBound(ListBox1.List) To UBound(ListBox1.List)
If i = ComboBox1.Value Then MsgBox " u cannot add this item"
Exit Sub
Next i

.AddItem tot.Value
.List(.ListCount - 1, 1) = ComboBox1.Value
End With

How To Cause Each Item In A Combo Box To Do Something Different

Apr 6, 2008

I have a combo box(form control) and have it populated with data.

I want each item to do something so that when one is selected it triggers and event.

the items are:

Rounds 1 - 5
Rounds 6 - 10
Rounds 11 - 15...just like that all the way to 30

the worksheets are labeled "Rd 1", "Rd 2", "Rd 3" ...etc

When I click "Rounds 1 - 5" in the combo box, besides the "Summary" worksheet (which is where the combo box resides) only "Rd 1 - Rd 5" should be visible, I want all other sheets hidden, and when I click "Rounds 6 - 10" I want "Rd 6 - Rd 10" visible and all else hidden.

Combo Box Frustration With Add Item

Jul 11, 2007

I simply added a combo box to my sheet and or word doc. I have tried using .additem, but I get nothing in the drop down. I am on 2003 SP 2.

I have tried the following:

Private Sub combobox1_form_initialize()
ComboBox1.AddItem "Computer"
ComboBox1.AddItem "Internet"
ComboBox1.AddItem "Book"
ComboBox1.Text = ComboBox1.List(0)
End Sub

and

Private Sub combobox1_userform_initialize()
ComboBox1.AddItem "Computer"
ComboBox1.AddItem "Internet"
ComboBox1.AddItem "Book"
ComboBox1.Text = ComboBox1.List(0)
End Sub

Neither gives me anything in the list.

Display Msgbox When Item Selected From Combo Box

Dec 8, 2007

Im using code from website: http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal11.html

to display a combobox when I double click any cell that contains a validation list in it. I'm not great with VBA so I am having problems finding what each part of the code does. This is causing problems for another bit of code that I use to display a msgbox when certain values are selected from the list.

The MsgBox shows up great when I select an item from the validation list but does not work at all when I select the same item from the double-clicked combo box. It would be great if I could get the MsgBox to work both ways. This is the code that displays the MsgBox when target value is selected from list

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Select Case Target.AddressLocal(False, False)
Case Is = "B4", "B5", "B6", "B7", "B8", "B9", "B10", "B11", "B12"
If Target.Value = "H" Then
MsgBox "This is a pop for extra information. Savvy?", vbYesNo, "Yo!"
End If
End Select
End Sub...............

Validation List: Wide As Widest List Item

Oct 28, 2006

I am trying to make some of my data validation dropdown list boxes narrower. I was told one way to do that is to use combo boxes. (If there are any other ways, please let me know!)

I don't think my combo boxes are working. I had tried to make a combo box appear in each data validation pulldown cell by using this tutorial:

http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal10.html

I followed this tutorial word for word, but when I try to test the code at the end by double-clicking on a data validation pulldown cell, no combo box appears.

I have a worksheet in which Col. A contains the names of London boroughs and col. B contains the name of each Ward in that borough.

I'd also like the option to be able to select all the Wards for the borough selected so that they can be used in a chartgraph.

"Year 1" (which is cell "B1")
-If cell A1 is the value "20" then the combo box default list item would be
"Year 2" (which is cell "C1") ETC...

I'm trying to figure out how to activate a macro from combo box or list box.
But no success.

I have a list of names:
AAA

I have created a list of macros, that carry the same names,

AAA

The Q is: how can I link each name to its own macro?
so when chosen, will activate the macro?

Combo & List Box To Set Calendar Quarter

Aug 7, 2007

I need to define a specific calendar quarter and year, and want to do so using a combo box for the quarter (e.g. 1st Quarter, 2nd Quarter, 3rd Quarter, 4th Quarter) and a list box for the year (so the user can select any year desired).

The selections in each item should then somehow define the quarter's date range so I can use it in my SUMPRODUCT calculations.

Example:

User selects '1st Quarter' from the Combo Box
User selects '2004' from the List Box

CurrentQuarter range is somehow defined to equal 1/1/04 through 3/31/04.

If this isn't possible, then perhaps two ranges can be defined based on the user's selections:

QtrStart is set to 1/1/04
QtrEnd is set to 3/31/04

Empty Values In Combo Box List

Oct 31, 2009

I have a combo box, from the control toolbar, that I have populated with a named range in the properties of the combo box. The items in the named range vary when an earlier combo box is selected. There are always at least 2 values populated in the named range, but can be as many as 22 values. What happens is when there are only 2 items in that range, the drop down list from the combo box shows 20 blank lines! I have been searching for how to "ignore empty cells" in this range, but cannot find it. The empty cells are always before and/or after the populated cells, if that helps. The range is updated via VBA, not formulas, if that is helpful as well.

Last Item(s) In A List...

Jan 16, 2009

how I can, in a formulae, identify the last item(s) in a list of values. For example I have data in rows 1-25 with numeric data in. I want to put a formula in, say, row 100 that averages the last three data items above in the same column, but the number of data items will increase over time to use row 26, 27, etc. and I don't want to change the formula in row 100.

Hide Combo Boxes (dropdown List)?

Nov 14, 2008

I trying to do a sheet with one combo box (dropdown list) where I want the user to be able to choose "add rows" to make more boxes appear. My idea to solve this was to put all the boxes in the sheet, and then create a macro that either hides or shows the rows with the extra boxes. Now I have a problem that hiding the rows just does that, and only that. The rows disappear, but the combo boxes stay visible (but ends up on top of eachother).

How can i make a list without involving ranges of cells?

Transpose Named Range For Combo Box List

May 29, 2006

I have been trying to make a combobox for which the list is a named range. However, this range needs to be transposed. ListFillRange doesn't seem to let me transpose the list first. I've tried transposing the list somewhere else first and then adding it, but it seems to want a range as opposed to a reference to a range. I'm so confused now. This is the basic code that I wish would work.

ActiveSheet. OLEObjects.Add(ClassType:="Forms.ComboBox.1", Link:=False, _
DisplayAsIcon:=False, Left:=253, Top:=472, Width:=117, Height:=20). _
Select
Selection.ListFillRange = "=transpose(Stream_Data!StreamList)"

While I'm at it, could someone explain to be how to refer to a combobox. ie. when you create it, you don't name it so how can you refer to it. That's why I have used the selection tool above to add the list.

Validation List To Combo Box Without A Named Range

Dec 5, 2007

I'm creating a sheet that takes three Validation Lists into account. The first two lists are based on named regions. The third list uses the first two lists to narrow a search down so that the user can pick what they want from a smaller selection. I'm using the code from Contextures.com to allow the user to double click the validation list to pop up a Combo Box. This allows me to show more than 8 selections at a time and also gives a little freedom on font and font size.

http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal11.html

Since the third list is not based on a named region but rather code to compare the two previous lists, when I double click the third validation list a blank combo box pops up. it possible to pop up what ever lists are in the validation boxes.

This is the code that I have in the third validation box which States "The Source Currently evaluates to an error" but works fine for some reason. =OFFSET(CategoryStart, MATCH(B4, CategoryColumn, 0) - 1, IF(A4 = "Description", 2, IF(A4 = "ExtDescription", 3, IF(A4 = "PartNumber",4))), COUNTIF(CategoryColumn,B4), 1)

I tried making a named region that was based on the code, so that the list could change as the user selected different options from the first two lists. This gave me the same problems as I had before.

Pick From List Or Combo Box And Return Definition In Cell To The Right..

Jan 18, 2009

In my attachment, I have a worksheet where I need to pick a rating from a combo box or list (Expert, Leading, Applying, Learning, Under Performing). I will be picking this rating 10 different times on this worksheet and the selections will not be the same in all cases so the definition I need won't always be the same.

I would like to return the definition (definitions are detailed on another worksheet, Data Elements) to the cell to the right.

I've tried IF statements but when I make one selection from the combo box, all the combo boxes select the same thing. I've also tried vlookup but can't figure it out and can't find an explanation in layman's terms.
