From VBA code - I need to be able to populate a list box with a assortment of city names, (>200 entries), and be able to start the city selection with an alphanumeric “hot” key in the pick box – i.e. – when the user enters an “S” – the list box data jumps down to the start of all of the cities beginning with “S” – etc.
(I can populate the list box) – it is the alpha selection code that is kicking my butt.
I am trying to make a puzzle and use excel to verify I have done it correctly.
What I want to do is when I type a letter in a specific cell have it put a number value in another cell automatically. For instance, if I type the letter "a" in cell A1 I would like the number 60 to populate automatically in cell B1. I want to give each letter in the alphabet a numeric value so I can type a message in the A column and then auto sum the results of the numbers in the B column.
I want to set up a sheet macro that will replace the contents of a cell (when a specific number is typed in) with a specific formula.
For instance, when "43" is typed into any cell within specified columns (say columns C and H), it changes to the following formula: =IF(D47="",43,IF(D47<=3030,408,43))(WHERE D47 WOULD REPRESENT THE CELL ADJACENT TO THE CELL WHERE "43" WAS TYPED.)
IE:
If "43" was typed into cell C1, then it would change to the formula: =IF(D1="",43,IF(D1<=3030,408,43))
If "43" was typed into cell C50, then it would change to the formula: =IF(D50="",43,IF(D50<=3030,408,43))
I need it to be like:
=B10 2014
(So the first part changes depending on what B10 is but the 2014 always stays)?
I have 2 userforms. UF1 and UF2. UF2 has a rowsource set to its Listbox. UF1 has a search function that searches the original sheet. Now I want to double click on an entry in UF1's Listbox and select the same entry in UF2's Listbox. I want to then work with that entry in UF2.
[Code].....
I do all of this to circumvent Excels restriction. I can't search in a rowsource Listbox, but any edits done to my new Listbox wouldn't be made to the Excel sheet.
I have a multiselect listbox with values that gets populated from a sql statement, and I would like to get is the first or second index from the selected item. I know how to get the listindex from a combobox by using:
VB:
cbnumber.List(.ListIndex, 0)
How can I loop through and get the 1st index number for the selected items only from the listbox? I want to pass this index number to another sql statement.
I need to make a series of numbers and letter auto fill in a spread sheet
Example
2650A
2650B
2650C
And so on.
There is likely an easy fix for this, but I have an auto increment with the following code and would like the letter R to precede the auto increment number everytime.
My current code is this:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Sheets("Receipt").Range("F11").Value = Sheets("Receipt").Range("F11").Value + 1
End Sub
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

My worksheet contains a data entry column that is verified against a named range entitled "Categories". If you click on the down arrow, it displays all the valid entries. What I'd like to do is enter in the field the first letter of the entry and display only those valid entries that start with the letter I entered. For example, if I entered "c", the validation screen would display:
Car Insurance
Car Payment
Car Repair/Tires
Charity
Chase Mortgage
Church
Cleaning Supplies
Cleaning/Laundry
Contact Lens
Cosmetics
Then, if I entered "ch", the validation screen would display:
Charity
Chase Mortgage
Church
I want to randomly select letters from this distribution (to make random words) but I want the more frequent letters in the distribution to be selected more often so that the word I form have the same distribution. I have the feeling there is a simple solution to this but I couldn't see anything other than the frequency function that I thought I might be able to use. I could populate an array with letters present in numbers according to their frequency and then randomly select from it but is there a more elegant solution? .......
View 10 Replies View RelatedNeed code to select everything listed in a listbox on a userform with a commandbutton
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a mulit-extended listbox, a textbox and a button on a form.
I have populated the listbox with a list of files from a directory no problems.
First Part (Single Selection):
When I click on one/single filename in the list I want:
1. The textbox to be populated with the name I have selected
2. When I click the button (With the single filename selected, I want to call a function passing the filename I have selected.
The function could contain a msgbox(selecteditemname) for now.
Second Part (Multi Selection):
When I multi select filenames from the list I want:
1. The textbox to be populated with "Multiple Files Selected"
2. When I click the same button as before (With multiple filenames selected, I want to call a different function and pass each filename individually in may be a for loop)
The function could contain the loop and with each filename in the loop msgbox(selecteditemname)
I have tried the above and noticed that the listbox1.value property for multi listboxes dont seem to work and I am not really sure how to distinguish between one selection or multiselection to get a button to pass off to two separate functions.
I am trying to create a userform that is reusable by turning on and off diff objects, and reusing objects. I am running into a little difficulty of resizing the list box for various lengths if items Example would be if I have a list of items and the longest one is 93 chars long, I need a width of 672 When I have a list that the items are each 5 chars long, I need a listbox width of 92
For simplicity's sake, I am using Courier (supposed to be a monospaced font) pitch is 10. I would have figured that my width would be simply a matter of finding the longest length in the list and then multiply that times some magical number that represents the width of the letter (since monospaced, each letter should be the same).
But, with the 93 char long string, the "average length" of each letter seems to be 7.2 (672/93 = ~7.2) but for the shorter words, it seems to be wider at 18 (92/5 = ~18)
Is there a way to have the listbox size itself to the width of the strings?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with a listbox on a userform. I have an array that is stored in a name. The array has 2 columns and + 1000 rows. It looks like this:
100 Name1
110 Name2
120 Name3
Etc.
The listbox is filled from the array:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
frmZoeken.lstbx_Gbr.Clear
frmZoeken.lstbx_Gbr.ColumnHeads = False
Dim myArr()
myArr = Evaluate("varRekSchema")
frmZoeken.lstbx_Gbr.List = myArr
End Sub
When the form with the listbox opens, it has to select by default the value in the listbox that corresponds with a value in a cell in the workbook:
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
'On error resume next
frmZoeken.lstbx_Gbr.Value = Cells(ActiveCell.Row, 3).Value
frmZoeken.txt_Zoekterm.SetFocus
End Sub
When opening the userform the following error message appears: Could not set the Value property. Invalid property value.
When I activate the row "On error resume next" the listbox is correctly filled. The error occurs with selecting the default value.
I am trying to populate a listBox with data from cells. I eventually want to be able to make the cells change by just adding more data into my worksheet.
Here is my code. It should fill my listBox with just cells A1:A11 (I can't figure out how to make it adjust for new data), however the code is returning this error:
"Run-time error '91'
Object variable or With block variable not set"
Option Explicit
Sub PopulateListBox()
Dim myList As Worksheet
Dim x As Variant
For Each x In myList.Range("A1:A11")
UserForm3.ListBox1.AddItem x.Value
Next
UserForm3.Show
End Sub
How to select pivot items in a pivot field based on choices from a MULTICOLUMN listbox?
At present, all I know is how to deselect pivot field values
Range("A5").Select
With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable4").PivotFields("MONTH")
.PivotItems("MAY").Visible = False
Because the pivot table automatically starts with all items selected?
I'm using list boxes in an excel sheet. What I want to do, if at all possible, is to be able to TAB to the list box and then hit the first letter of the City I'm trying to go to. The list is in alphabetical order, but if I tab to it and want Philly, I want to just be able to hit the P button and get to the Ps.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a userform that does search using Name. If there are multiple records found it displays a message "There are X instances of (value in name)" and shows a list box. When user selects Find All, the multicolumn listbox gets populated. Selecting a row in lisbox populates the corresponding values in the userform. Problem is that selecting a row in listbox fails to select the corresponding row in the worksheet. As a result, if i change the values in the textbox (say for eg. Phone) the changes are updated in the row selected on the worksheet but not on the required row! Pardon my innocense, I am very new to VBA. find the attached worksheet. This is not my work, I found it during research. Auto Merged Post;Sorry the previous file had error. find the updated worksheet.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am currently setting up a userform where one of the options is for an error code (chosen from a listbox) but the user has to be able to select multiple codes. I have the below working if it is NOT multi select, works a dream and goes in the right column.
VB:
If ListBox2.Text = "A1" Then
LastRow.Offset(1, 20).Value = "x"
ElseIf ListBox2.Text = "A2" Then
LastRow.Offset(1, 21).Value = "x"
But as soon as I set it to mutliselect and choose say A1 and A2 neither one writes, I imagine because Listbox2.text is now A1,A2 and not just one or the other.
I have a userform with 5 listboxes on the first page, each with multiple options. They are all set up so any number of options can be chosen.
2 are populated by the 'add item' method, and the other 3 pull data from 3 columns of the database when it's initialised to ensure all possible options are included.
My question is this - as there may be many options in each listbox to scroll through, if someone wanted to search on all the options in the listbox, it would be easier to have a 'Select All' option at the top, but I have no idea if this is possible, let alone how to do this -
Is it possible to have some VBA in Sheet1:
1. That when a user click on a cell in a particular column within a specific sheet:
1.1 That they are presented with a multi select listbox (Showing 20 items stored in a column in Sheet2 )
1.2 And when the items are selected that the items are automatically written in the same cell that was clicked in Sheet1 with a new line break in between each item?
ListBox Transfer
I have created a Listbox with 300 products in it - The user can only select a maximum of 10 of them - these 10 products then need to be transferred to another worksheet beginning at the range B13 and ending a B22, Once these have been transferred the product number (eg 1 = Meadowmin 12) is then linked to a vlookup allowing further information of that particular product to be displayed.The vlookup is working
I have tried to use the Ozgrid sample (ListBox Transfer,xls) - works until the range B13, but does not continue to put the other 9 products below my first choice.
This is currently the code I am trying to work on. It keeps on counting 13 rows and then adding the product, it must count only to first 13 rows and thereafter remaining product below one another (max of 10)
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
