Assign Range Values To Control Toolbox Combo Box
Apr 3, 2009
I've built the code for a Template form for data entry of a survey. Through Control Toolbox I've created the form and used several textboxes, option buttons, checkboxes and COMBO boxes this one in turn being my trouble.
- Sheet one is called "Data" (this is the place where all inserted information is going to be stored
- Sheet two: "Variables" (here is where I keep the required values for the como boxes - inserted manually apriorely...
Question: What is the code to assing to the combo boxes in order to have the values from the sheet "Variables" of the range A1:A4 - use the comboboxq2 for referee, I'll do the others
P.S. see the code up to now:
Private Sub CommandButtonN_Click()
Dim eRow As Long
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim inf As WorksheetFunction
Set ws = Worksheets("Data")
Set ws = Worksheets("Variables")
' Find first empty row in database survey
eRow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row ................

i have been having this problem with my version of excel at work and it is driving me crazy. First of all this is excel 2000. For a while now I have been unable to use the control toolbox - when I click it - nothing happens. In the meantime I havent been doing anthing really serious so I used the forms toolbar. I have tried using the control toolbox in word - and it works - just in case someone had been messing around and uninstalling things. Is there anyway that I have hidden it somewhere?

I have added a button to asign a macro to but for the life of me cant see how to "activate" the button. I am trying to click the button to make the macro run but it keeps selecting the button like it wont come out of design view.

I've just finished writing some vb code that i need to assign to a button. Trouble is I select the control toolbox and put it design mode and all of the icons with the tool box are greyed out. pic attached below
pukks Auto Merged Post;Doh Doh and double doh!
Problem solved: I inadvertently had selected more than one worksheet tab and this was stopping me from placing a button on the worksheet.

i've gotta demo an Excel app in a few days and this never really bothered me, but someone recently pointed out that it can get distracting for the Control Toolbox to pop in and out randomly. the form is being built for use by other staff, and i suppose it would also be distracting for them if the toolbox arbitrarily appeared here and there. is there a way to turn it off?

I have a spreadsheet with check boxes and a combo box that are set to display in print preview as well as print. I have set up a Print Preview button on this spreadsheet, as well. When you click the Print Preview button and then click close on the preview window and return to the spreadsheet, the control toolbox tools appear out of place and are greatly magnified. Scrolling the screen down and then back makes them appear correctly once again.
I have seen this on this spreadsheet on three different computers. Does anyone have a clue what is going on?
Note, clicking the print preview button on the standard toolbar does not provide the same artifact. It works correctly.
Or for the cheap fix, what is the VB script to move the cursor to a different cell and then return back?

I've started experiencing a strange problem. The control toolbox keeps appearing when the first page on a multipage userform is activated. I can't figure out what's causing this, and after searching the forum, with no luck, I thought I would see if anybody else is experiencing the same problem, and how to fix it.

I have an excel workbook where on several of the worksheets I have Control Toolbox Textboxes inserted into the sheet. The Textboxes are for when a user wants to type notes onto the worksheet.
My issue is that the Textboxes do not allow the user to edit the font because the VBA project is locked.
How can I allow users to edit the font in the Textbox without giving the VBA password away to the user?

I have a bunch of Option Buttons in a worksheet whose properties i need to change by running a macro. For example, I created an OptionButton1 in a worksheet using control toolbox. Now I want to run a macro to change it's name, groupname, linkedcell and caption. I did this macro but it doesn't work:
Sub Label()
Dim Code1 As String
Dim Link1 As String
Dim Form1 As String
Dim GroupName1 As String
Dim Caption1 As String
Worksheets("Section1").Select
Form1 = "OptionButton1"
Code1 = "FButton1"
Link1 = "FLink1" 'Defined in worksheet
GroupName1 = "FGroup1"
Caption1 = "Choose Function 1"
With Worksheets("Section1").Form1
.Name = Code1
.LinkedCell = Link1
.GroupName = GroupName1
.Caption = Caption1
End With
End Sub

I am attempting to put in some dropdown boxes and text boxes and maybe some other items using the control toolbox in Excel. After a selection is made I would like to count that particular item. I was using the validation method in which all I needed was the following to sum up the selections made: =SUMIF(G:G,"Monday",I:I)
Now I realize this will not work due to the fact the control toolbox controls are embeded and merley sit on the cells. How do I sum selections made using drop down boxes that are derived from the control toolbox? If someone can give me an example to try or point me to a place to find such information that would be great.

Im trying to create many option buttons on my sheet and then change the GroupName and Name properties but im having no luck in accessing the properties. Here is the code ive got at the moment, could someone tell me how to access these properties. Shown below is a small section of the code, if you require the full code i will happily provide it. This is my first post and im not sure if this code tag thing has been done properly:
n = 18
Call Section_Header
Range("D" & n - 1).Value = " Case"
For i = 1 To UBound(Name_Case, 1)
Range("D" & n + i).Value = Name_Case(i)
Range("M" & n + i).Value = Cost_Case(i)
ActiveSheet. OLEObjects.Add(ClassType:="Forms.OptionButton.1", _
Left:=628, Top:=(n - 1) * 15.75 + (1 * 6) + (i - 1) * 15.75, Width:=46.5, Height _
:=15.75).Select
Next i

I'm using combo boxes. Initially I used combo boxes from the Forms toolbar, however the text in the combo box was to small. Now I'm using combo boxes from the Control tool bar. However, i would like the link cell to show the number of the entry in the list (like the forms control box) and not the actual entry. Is there an option I need to select in properties, or is there some VB code I can attach to the combo box ?

I created some excel 2003 spreadsheets to use for Fire/Police dispatchers. I have a series of yes/no option buttons that were created using the control toolbox. I have a macro that clears all the blanks where text is added, but want to add a line that clears the option buttons also.

which of these toolbars provides the better 'controls' to paste onto worksheets (as opposed to UserForms)? For those wondering, both toolbars contain some apparently similar controls, e.g., combo box, radio button, spinner etc. but there are differences in their behaviour it would seem...

In my workbook sheet 11 has some ranges that need to have names based on cell values in sheet2 (for purposes of data validation lists).
Range S28:S46 will assume the name of sheet2A11 & sheet2A3.
(example name period_1unit_1)
Range U28:U46 will assume the name of sheet2A11 & sheet2A4.
Range W28:W46 will assume the name of sheet2A11 & sheet2A5
Right now I am calling the code when something is entered into A11.
I have tried if statement and select case, but I ran into complications with both.
I have posted both codes with the questions I have concerning those codes.

For example, I have the numerical value "400" in R1C2 and that value would be used in the name "D400" which is to be assigned to R1C1:R5C2.
The code I have is:
Range("R" & DRow & "C1:R" & DRow + 4 & "C2") = "D" & Cells(DRow, 2).Value
but is throwing up the error:
"Run-time error '1004':
Method 'Range' of object '_Global' failed
DRow increases dependant on other variable data.
Also, am I right to be using R1C1 instead of A1, or can the same be achieved using A1 references? If so, I think I may not be able to see the wood for the trees.

I have a formula that counts all instances of the letters a, b and c in a range and assigns them a value of 1 unless they are in the M column in which case a, b or c counts 4.
=SUM(COUNTIF(J2:AB2,{"a*","b","c"}),OR(LEFT(M2)={"a","b","c"})*4)
This worked well but now I need to modify the weightings across this range. My new goal is to count all instances of a,b and c in the range J2:AB2 but have M column a,b, c's = 2 and N:R column a,b,c's equalling 4. Letters other than a,b or c count as 0.
Example:
J2...K2...L2...M2...N2...O2...P2...Q2...R2...
A....B.....B.....C.....B.....D....B.....C.....E
the output of the above sequence should be
1+1+1+2+4+4+0+4+4+0 = 21

What I need to is create a VBA function with several parameters that reads data from an M x N range of rows and columns (matrix). I cannot just pick and choose certain cells within this range as the function goes into a loop through at least 200 cells in the 35 x 200 range. Obviously, I am here posting as I cannot get this function to work. I believe my troubles lie with reading this range into the function...
Application.Goto Reference:="range"
rangearray = Selection.Value
values(I, J) = rangearray(I + 1, J)
Do I need to set a function variable equal to that range, or do I do this another way? Basically, I need to have the ability to pick a given cell(m, n) out of the range and have my way with it in the function.

I have a (form control) combo box in my worksheet. Inside the combo box are several different ways a data set might be sorted. I would like to refer to the current selection of the combo box in my VBA code because I have a macro which executes differently based on the selection in the combo box.
I have found this piece of code which I know executes when the combo box selection is changed.
Sub DropDown1_Change()
However, I still do not know how to refer to the value of the current selection.
Below was my attempt to assign the current selection to a name, ComboValue, that I created:
Sub DropDown1_Change()
Names("ComboValue").value = ComboBox1
End Sub
Strangely, this code executes once, but removes the name I created. It then returns an error on subsequent runs.

I have a named range, called SubjectNamesPastoral on a worksheet called Worksheets("Group to Teacher")
I can't assign the named range to the rngSubjectFamilyRangeOnSubjectUsedSheet variable in vba.
the first two lines of code work fine, the msgbox shows "E100:E105", happy days!
However when I try to assign the same range to the rngSubjectFamilyRangeOnSubjectUsedSheet variable, the debugger runs past the 'Set' line without error, but throws 'error 91' at the second msgbox.
VB:
thisString = "SubjectNames" & strSubjectFamilyOfGroup
MsgBox Range(thisString).Address
Set rngSubjectFamilyRangeOnSubjectUsedSheet = Worksheets("Group to Teacher").Range(thisString)

I have a combo box on a form that is linked to a column of values allowing pre-emptive typing, or selection via a drop down. This works perfectly with one exception - each item shows up multiple times.
Is there any way of getting around this? the only way I can think of offhand would be to link it to a seperate table which is populated on a semi regular basis via another VB process? I would have thought this would have been a fairly common question but haven't been able to find anything on this board or others as yet.

I am using a ComboBox on a worksheet where the items in that box are pulled from Sheet1A:A. When the selection of the item in the comboBox is made, I would like several textboxes on that same page to be auto-populated based upon info derived from cells adjoining whatever row in Column A was chosen on Sheet 1.
For simplicity sake, let's say the range on Sheet 1 is A:H, and TextBox1 = "B", TextBox2= "C", etc.
so if,
A B C D
JOHN 15 DOGS BLUE
SUE 18 CATS RED
BOB 20 TURTLES YELLOW
When Combobox selection is JOHN, I want TextBox1= "15" TextBox2= "DOGS" TextBox3= "BLUE"

I would like to know how can I plot my x axis of a chart with the maximum and minimum value that I have in this variable. Note that my variable is no going from the lower value to the highes one, it is random. So what I did is to use the autoscale of the chart, but it is not working as I would like. Any solution?
The code that I use is:
Code:
' TO GET THE INITIAL and FINAL VALUE and the STEP
Worksheets(wsheet(27)).Activate
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(chartName(11)).Activate
ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).MinimumScaleIsAuto = True
ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).MaximumScaleIsAuto = True
ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).MajorUnitIsAuto = True
xScaleMin = ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).MinimumScale
xScaleMax = ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).MaximumScale
xScaleStep = ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).MajorUnit
'After I use them (xScaleMin,xScaleMax,xScaleStep) for several charts, in this way:
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(chartName(11)).Activate
ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory, xlPrimary).AxisTitle.Text =VarName
ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory, xlPrimary).AxisTitle.Select
ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory, xlPrimary).AxisTitle.Font.Size = 11
ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).MinimumScale = xScaleMin
ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).MaximumScale = xScaleMax
ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).MajorUnit =xScaleStep
' but if my data was between 50 and 250 it is plotting between 0 and 300
