Adding Command Button With Code Embedded
May 11, 2007
I have a macro which I use to do all sorts of routine things on a spreadsheet for my employees. (you guys helped me with that too. thanks)
I would like to add a command button to this sheet to run series of code and I want to add this to the final step of a macro.
Question, is there a series of code, which would
1. create the command button on the active sheet, and
2. add the required code to the command button, and
3. embed that button and code onto the active sheet all at once.
?
I need to do this regularly so it is a currently manual process I am trying to replace.
Ex. of code I want placed:
Rows("1:1").Select
Selection.Font.Bold = True
This is not the exact code which I will use, but it will help me to understand what I would have to do to make it work.

Is it possible that when you press a command button, that the first thing it does is to execute the code assigned to another command button (IE in another sub).

I have a monthly log that I need to keep to track expenses and customers visited. The log is segmented into 12 parts corresponding with each month.
I need to be able to add multiple lines via an input box while maintaining the formulas and formatting of the 2 rows directly above the forms command button (because both lines are filled with a different color) but not the contents?
There will be 12 command buttons in all and the new rows should be added at the bottom (directly above where the button is)
I found this and it works to some extent.
Sub FromFormsCommandBar2()
Dim Btn As Button
with ActiveSheet
Set Btn = .Buttons(application.caller)
btn.topleftcell.entirerow.insert
end with
End Sub

I have built a Form which displays data from a spreadsheet. The user opens the form by clicking on a command button from the spreadsheet. The Form initially opens with the data from Row 4 of the spreadsheet (because this is the first row of the spreadsheet which contains the data for the form). The user can then sequentially access other rows in the spreadsheet by clicking on buttons in the Form which advance the extraction by one row.
I would like to add a command button to each row of the spreadsheet that would open up the Form and set the values in the Form to the same row which the command sits on.

I have a user form with combo boxes. The user selects items from the combo box and when they click the command button the selection is written to the spreadsheet. Each time the button is clicked it adds an item to the sheet making a list of items. I am trying to assign a number to each item when the command button is clicked so I have numbered list. Here is my code so far:
Private Sub cmdbtnAdd_Click()
Dim RowCount As String
'Writes user inputs to Active Worksheet when Add Item Button is clicked.
RowCount = Worksheets("Sheet1").Range
("A1").CurrentRegion.Rows.Count
With Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1")
.Offset(RowCount, 0).Value = ' This is where I have been trying to code in the numbering
.Offset(RowCount, 1).Value = Me.Combobox1
.Offset(RowCount, 2).Value = Me.ComboBox2
End With
End Sub

I would like to make a userform where additional textboxes (and labels) can be added to the form by clicking a command button. Is this possible to do?
For example, a userform which has:
Contractor 1: (TextBox)
and underneath this have a command button which when clicked will add another text box e.g.
Contractor 2: (TextBox)
I'm new to vba so haven't got a clue how to go about making this userform or even if it is possible.

I have a 2 worksheets. One "Projects in Process"and the other "Project Completed". when the users fill in the information in cells A4-F4 (line 4 is the starting line and it could go down as far as line 23 or a23 - f23) In Projects in Process they press a "completed Project" command button and the data in a4-f4 copies over to worksheet "Projects completed". In the next available row (starting at row 4).

So right now I have the
Private Sub CommandButton19_Click()
Dim product As Double
product = ActiveSheet.Range("J45").Value * ActiveSheet.Range("S44").Value
Sheets("Sheet3").Range("R2").Value = product
End Sub
I want to be able to switch the cell the product goes into based on a certain command button that I click(for example I have a command button for when I use copper wiring and one for aluminum wiring and I want when I click the copper wiring button for the product to show up in one cell, but when I click the aluminum button for the product to show up in a different cell , but on the same sheet). To be more clear I have a quantity command button(which is the code above) that i want to be able to recognize the difference between when the aluminum command button is clicked and when the copper command button is clicked.

Workbook performs perfectly 95% of the time but every now and again I have this issue where the formular do not calculate (it is set to automatic).
I have a workaround of doing a find and replace across all the worksheets of "=" replaced with "=" and this solves the issue.
The problem I am having is that some of the sheets are protected and some are not. The code I am using for the find and replace is as follows...
VB:
Option Explicit
Sub ChgInfo()
Dim WS As Worksheet
Dim Search As String
Dim Replacement As String
[Code] .....
I need to add to this code the unprotect command and then reprotect only the originally protected sheets?
I am sure these is a better way of doing this but im really short on time. This issue only occurs 5% of the time. the other 95% the formula all calculate fine!
I just need a way of doing the find and replace for = to = across all sheets in the workbook regardless of the sheet protection!!

If button1 on sheet 1 is clicked I would like to run the code named close1 from the click event of the commandbutton1 on sheet 2, but if button 2 on sheet 1 is clicked I would like to run the code close2 under the click event of sheet 2 commandbutton1 and so on. Is there some way of achieving the above

I am building a code based on a command button in a row, which will check is a worksheet exists (message), if not create a worksheet from a template (from another worksheet specific to a on a cell value in the same row), rename the worksheet based on a cell value in the same row.
I am having some success for each task with exception to relative cell values .....
As the code will be specific to the row (one button per row) Questions:
how to i determine the location of the button that is clicked? (I assume once this is established i can use to pull values in the same sheet on certain columns....?)

I am working on a simple employee list with names, phone numbers, employee ID numbers, etc. I have created a VBA form to make new entries or change existing entries. The form has 'next', 'previous', and 'close' command buttons that work well, but I would like to have my data sort by employee name after any of the buttons are clicked.
My data is in worksheet "Employees" with employee names in column A beginning on row 2. Here is what I have entered for the 'Next' command button:

I have inherited support for the an Excel 'program' that seems to be fairly unstable. I am currently having problems with the following code in a subroutine (executed when the user presses a command button):
With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
.PrintTitleRows = "$1:$7"
.PrintTitleColumns = ""
.PrintArea = ActiveSheet.UsedRange
End With
Sometimes it works and sometimes I get the following error: Run-time error '1004'
Unable to set the PrintArea property of the PageSetup class.
… on the .PrintArea = ActiveSheet.UsedRange
I am having a hard time figuring out what is causing its wishy-washiness. Running the following code (launched from worksheet named 'consumer' with a command button):

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.

I am playing around with the Forfiles command (being called from Excel via Shell)..
I can't for the life of me get it apply a second command (such as getting the file size of each file)..
For example:
VB:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim Z
Z = Split(CreateObject("wscript.shell").exec("cmd /c forfiles /P C:UsersapoDesktopTextFiles /S /M *.* /d
[Code]....
The end result being the filename and the filesize shown..

How can I return name of a command button on click? I want to create some sort buttons on a sheet I will use regularly to speed things up. I thought if I could call each sort button by the column letter the button sits in I can use this in a single sub for all buttons
e.g the button sitting in column A is called "A". when i click the button, it returns it's name to a variable which I can then use to sort column A. I know I could create a seperate routine for each button but I was just trying to think of something neater.

I have a userform with a button on it named But1. Is it possible to store But1 into a variable then activate the But1_Click action using a variable?
Dim strButname As String
strButname ="But1"
Now, how would you activate the But1_Click method using strButname variable. With listboxes you can use the Control(strListboxName) methodology?
This doesn't work, but gives you an idea of what I am trying to do.
Controls(strButname)_click

I currently am using a form button to create new rows.
I need two different kind of buttons. I have a button that does this-
VB:
Sub InsertRow()
'this inserts a row where the button is clicked.
Dim r As Range
[Code]....
However, when I try and create these codes using a Command button (I need it for the color), I get the error
"unable to get the buttons property of the Worksheet class"
P.S one other thing, say the button is in row 3, and Cells A1 and A2 are merged, when you click the button in row 3, it should extend the merge to A3.

This is probably really straight forward but cant see why it happens, the following macro works fine when called by a button created by the form toolbar but doesnt when called by a command button, get the runtime error 1004, "select method of range class failed"
ActiveSheet.Select
Range("B4:B37").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("G4:G37").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("B1").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("D1").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("F1").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("J1").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("M2:M3").Select
Selection.ClearContents
Range("B4").Select
ActiveWorkbook.Save

I have read several articles saying using a command button as a toggle button can't be done but some articles have said it is possible using the state properties.
.State = msobuttondown
.State = msobuttonup
Is there any way to combine this with the onaction property so that when you press the button, it stays down and activates a macro then when you press it again it pops back up and activates another macro.

FYI This is cross posted on the VB Forums at [URL].....
I know that you can use the below code to add buttons to 2 of Excel's menu systems,
Code:
Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls.Add
Application.CommandBars("Cell").Controls.Add
And this should add a command bar control of whatever type specified to either the Add-Ins tab of the ribbon or the right-click menu when clicking on a range of cells.
However, I would like to be able to add some command bar controls to the right-click menu when you click on a group of columns. Is this possible?
