Within a data validation selection, are you able to do both Auto Complete and Auto Delete? I have this posted at another forum [url]but have not been able to find a solution (a copy of the file, test. zip is there as well). I am not sure it is possible, or, at least I have been unable to get it working. I can do each, but not both.
I have also been utilizing:

I have desinged an excel invoice, but I think I might want it to do the impossible.
I have my companies database as a .csv file, is there any function where I can enter in the company account number and it will automatically fill in the company name, address, contact etc like a mail merge type thing and for it to work vice versa enter the company name and it fills in the account number and address all automatically taken from the information on the .csv file?
I want to enter a name in a cell from a list of 70 names I have on another work sheet. By just typing the first few letters of the name into the cell I need it to complete the entry. I do not want to use a drop down box it takes too long to find the name. I need a formula to do this for my spread sheet.

In the same Workbook is a worksheet named, "Records". I want to create a userform with a combo box, an "Enter" and "Cancel" command button. When typing begins in the combo box I need it to recognize the name from the "Database2" list in colum B and executes auto complete. When the "Enter" button is clicked I need it to enter the name in the first available row in colum B starting in row 3 in the Worksheet named "Records".
I'm using a very long validation list for a drop down menu. Is there anyway to setup the drop down so that one could start typing and the list would immediately eliminate to less options?
For example, my list consists of 3000 plant names. Instead of scrolling down to choose a plant that begins with a letter P, is there anyway to start typing "P" in the cell and have the list pop up and jump down to entries that begin with "P"?
I know I've entered data with such a function but can't figure out how to set it up?
I have the following formula in a cell C6 : "='Data Dump'!G20". I want the adjacent cell on the right (C7) to be "='Data Dump'!G21" and C8 to be "='Data Dump'!G22" and on and on. I'm trying to use the Auto complete handle on the bottom right hand corner of the cell (which looks like a + when the cursor is over it) to drag the formula so that the "Data Dump - G" values increase as I go (g21, g22, g23 and onwards). However, rather than the numerical part of the cell incrementing, the character (letter) does so instead, so I get H20, I20, J20 and onwards.

I rebooted to restore memory and ever since then my Context sensitive auto complete on VB statements, subroutines and functions has vanished and I can't figure out how to get it back.
How to restore this as I have some seriously complicated routines that are MUCH slower to code if I don't have this option.
I want to use a drop down box to pick a name and then when that name is entered to automatically fill information such as email address, phone number, address into a spreadsheet similar to auto complete that are on many web sites when you purchase from them often.

From this list I would like to enter their offerings to the church in a new column that has auto-complete. Ex. If I type a "P" all of the possible names are shown. Then if I type a "A" the list gets smaller with only a those members whose names start with "Pa"
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have developed a spreadsheet that allows a user to "Autocomplete" a name by doubleclicking on a cell and typing in a few letters of the person's name.
I named the range that I want to appear in my list and I created the combobox in sheet 1, not in a userform. My problem is that when I doubleclick on a blue cell in Sheet 1 and type in a few letters of the person's name, the name doesn't fill into the cell. I have already specified a ListFillRange, so the Combobox knows what I am looking for. For some reason, the drop-down list is hard coded and won't populate the name that the combobox has already found. I don't receive any errors from the code that is already in place. If you could help me figure you how to get the names to populate in the blue cells, I would greatly appreciate it.
Attached is an example. If you try doubleclicking and typing in, say "Doe, John" in one of the blue cells in Sheet 1, you will see his name, but when you hit enter it won't populate. The cell stays blank!
I have created a list in a Microsoft Excel Workbook (names and corresponding numbers) and named the list.
Then, I created a drop-down menu through Data/Validate/List that included the names.
I can look the names up in the drop-down box, but I would like to be able to type a few letters and Excel auto complete the rest of the name. For instance I would type Ja...and James Doe would come up with the mes Doe in black (highlighted).
Is there a way to do this in Excel?
I am trying to create an order form. i have a price list from my local hardware store that i want linked to my order form. i want my order form to autocomplete items off the price list. i have tried a few things but im stumped.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a large list of data records, 600+, and would like to use List Validation but find EXCEL's default Validation not appropriate for such long lists. What would be perfect is similar to what you get in Access, when you type in part of the record string required, a drop-down list appears and shows you the record entries that have that string within them and not necessarily in character order, quickly wittling down to the few records that apply and then use your arrow keys to move and select the correct record, etc. Example, I own a salon, and many shampoo ranges have many similar products:
Superstar
Superstar Blow Dry Lotion
Superstar Leave In Conditioner
Superstar Shampoo
Superstar Conditioner...........
This should be really easy, but for some reason I can't figure out how to make this work. I'm managing a resteraunt, and build my schedule by department using a drop down menu to insert my employee. I'd like to be able to automatically resort the data into a new worksheet organized by employee name. please see attachment.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI found this code for an auto-complete function from this website: [url]
It works well, but see the web example before using it. You have to name a range MyList with your potential values for it to work.
Currently, you have to click the drop-down arrows to see the potential entries. I want to make it so that after the user enters the first 3 characters it will automatically "drop-down" and show the potential entries. This will save a trip to the mouse and let the user see whether their entry is in the system.
Option Explicit
Dim i As Long
Sub KeyEventOn()
For i = 65 To 90
Application.OnKey "{" & i & "}", "'MyValidation """ & i & """'"
Next
End Sub
I am using the same VBA that is discussed in several threads on the internet to create a combobox on top of underlying excel validation. The most relevant post I have found on this site is linked below, however I am told that it has expired and I can not reply to it so I started this new thread.
Data Validation Autocomplete Via Combobox Modification
The VBA code discussed in the above linked thread is working pretty well in my excel file which has MANY different fields being validated. However, there is a problem that I can not seem to get past. Specifically, the combobox is currently showing the validated data behind it, but will also allow IN-valid data to be entered. Is there a way to stop this and force only valid data to be used (i.e., is there a way to force a "re-validation" on exit from the combo box)?
I would like to have excel automatically fill an excel cell with a predefined list. For example, if you put the letter l it will automatically include the word large. This is like you do when you fill out a form online. See attachment
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy Excel 2007 has "auto complete with a drop down list". When I type in the first character, a drop down list appears listing all the entries in that column tha start with that character. I click on one of the entries and the cell is "auto completed" with that entry. Sure is handy. I try to find that functionally in Excell at work, Office Professional 2010, and no bueno for kaki.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHow do you drag down a column to auto complete the values but do it so it only changes one variable.For example, I am dragging down =IF(ROW()<=$B$5,MOD(E2*B1,B2),"") down my column.
However, I only want the "E2" value to change, and I want B1 and B2 to stay that way. Whenever I drag down, it keeps changing all three values. Is there a way to make it just so that the E2 value is the only one that changes?
is there any way to remove/deactivate the cell's auto complete year function?

i have a excel file i need to markup by a 10% value. It is the L column starting at row 2 till a varying number of rows. i need to mark up all of the rows in the spreadsheet. i do not know how to make it repeat.
This is the formula =L2*1.1(i think its the right one) but i do not understand how to make it repeat. any help would be greatly appreciated.
I need the value to be replaced with the marked up value.
I'm using a pre-made spreadsheet from my stock broker (Interactive Brokers) that retrieves and displays real-time quotes, and allows one to retrieve historical stock data, among other things. I've created a little macro within it to try and automate some common tasks I do everyday - basically I want to retrieve a year of daily stock quotes for "stock 1" from IB's servers, then have the macro wait for the retrieval to be done and written to the spreadsheet (takes anywhere between 10 and 30 secs). After that's all done, then I want to do the same for "stock 2". Then when that's done, the macro proceeds to go ahead and do some calcs on stock1 and stock2. The problem is after my stock1 data request, the macro just keep on trucking through to the next commands while stock1's data retrival is still going on.
so things are getting all balled up. How can I get my macro to wait until stock1's data retrieval is all done?
I already have this code written but it looks for all words that contain my desired word. i.e selecting "innovation" while looking for "ovation"....
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have this code that works where Column A and B from 12 sheets are copied to a "Complete" sheet where it is saved as a CSV file for import.
I'm fairly new at this and know this code could be simplified to loop through the 12 sheets instead of copying the code 12x!!
I've copied the code for the 1st 2 sheets:
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
For i = 3 To Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
OutSH.Cells(1, outcol).Value = Cells(i, 1).Value
OutSH.Cells(2, outcol).Value = Cells(i, 2).Value

I am trying to make a save&close workbook macro.
I found several examples on google, but unfortunatly it conflicts with another macro I use for forceing users to enable macros (hide all sheets except one if macros are disabled).
The attached file is an example contaning the save&close code and the show/hide sheets depending on macros enabled.
If the file is opened with macros disabled then only one sheet will be visible.
If the file is opened with macros enabled other sheets are visible.
The problem if that this code uses a custom save, witch makes the save&close not save... (in module1 and in ThisWorkbook)
The pourpose of the save&close is to make sure some users don't forget the excel open and thus block access to it. So if a certain idele time passes excel has to save and close without any confirmation messages.
I am looking for a macro that i can store in my personal.xlsb. what i need is pretty much is something like this
private sub workbook_open
if workbook.name "inventorysummary.csv"
then application.run "personal.xlsb!capacity"
end sub
I only need it to run just for this file and i cannot place it in the file due to it gets replaced every day. Which if it didn't get replaced. I know how to do auto opens when the file stays the same I am just unsure for this.
