I've been creating forms/questionnaires, customer satisfaction type tings with Excel after I discovered that the previous ones were done on paper and it’s now my job to crunch the numbers for a report.
While I've been off learning how to do this in a suitable way for the office I work at, I've been neglecting the stack of papers from previous customer satisfaction surveys that are building up on my desk, about 200
So now rather than do what I think everyone else would do and make up the numbers. I thought I would just make a excel book with buttons for all the possible options on the survey and click them as I look through the papers.
So I need to learn how to make a button that, when clicked it would add a number to a cell. So if I clicked it 10 times, that cell would show 10.
so I can make the form with the buttons, what code/formula will I need to assign to the button to make it +1 to say, sheet2 A1?
I'm trying to create a form using radio buttons from the "Forms Tool Bar" and not sure I shouldn't be using the "Control Tool Bar"
I've got multiple buttons and wanted to group them so i used the "Group Box" from the Forms tool bar but now there's a box around the buttons (I've turned off Printing for the box) that gets in the way of other text on sheet. I did some searching and thought I read where you could also use the drawing tool bar and draw a rectangle around the buttons which would then let them operate independent of other groups of buttons but that doesn't seem to work so I'm guessing I imagined it. I also noticed that if you don't draw the "Group Box" around the hole radio button box, they don't work with others in the same "Group Box"
I'm not sure if I should use the buttons in the "Control Tool Bar" but I'm thinking I should so that I have the flexibility should I decide to do something different in the future. I'm thinking about using the buttons to hide a sheet as well as select the sheet for printing, but for now one hurdle at a time.
Lastly I tried looking up some information on how to get the "Control Tool Bar" radio button to behave similar to the "Forms" version of the button (i.e. click the button and it appears to alternate from other buttons in the group), however when I place my mouse over the button it selects it rather than letting me change it's state from true to false.
I want to write a VBA code that will place ActiveX Frame directly onto the worksheet and then add 3 Option Buttons from Toolbox into that frame.
I could not find an answer searching through the web... Also when trying to record macro and see the code it did not record placing the buttons from the toolbox or any formatting (color, caption, etc.) via properties...
When formatting the buttons it would be useful if the selected radio button would have different color, bold font, etc.
I have recently obtained some help on code to bring up a user form based on cell change selection.
the code is as follows:
Dim c As Range If Not Intersect(Target, Range("C6")) Is Nothing Then With Sheets("Data Set").Range("D4:D43") Set c = .Find(Range("C6").Value, LookIn:=xlValues)
If Not c Is Nothing Then UserForm4.Show End If End With
End If
It brings up userform4, but the command buttons do not carry out the code behind them:
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Sheets("Data Entry Form").Range("$C$6") = "Choose Employee" Unload Me End Sub
If I run user form seperate from the sheet and bring it up only in visual basic, it works...Any ideas???
PS this command button is no so it resets field C6. The other button is yes and performs copy paste function. Neither are operational when user form is brought up through the sheet change. Only works when initialized in VB.
I am trying to create a program to automate the gauging figures on oil barges, currently everything is done by hand and takes approximately 20 minutes to complete. I have the charts entered for the tanks already and have the code set so that when you click on a tank "gauge" it will enter the "volume" which corresponds to that gauge on a totals sheet. Here is where my problem is coming in
The barges are gauged at four points "before loading" "after loading" "before discharge" "after discharge"
I want to set a worksheet as the default page with four command buttons that let the user select which operation he wants to perform. before load figures. after load figures and depending on which operation they select have it enter the volumes in the appropriate cells on the totals sheet. So if someone selects "loadopen" command button I want the following code to run on my worksheets............................
I maintain an excel application for a local theatre group using alot of vba actioned by buttons on worksheets. I regularly email the application back and forth between the treasurer and myself and I have noticed that the process of doing this often seems to result in the buttons losing their reference to the code I've assigned to them.
why this happens (is it a bug?) and how to make the linkage more robust? Can I link the buttons and code using vba so that I could establish all the links when the workbook is open?
I'd like to write a macro to create buttons with the caption "Fix" in over 300 cells. Furthermore, I would like each button, when pressed to run a macro that would copy and paste the values (paste special) of the entire row in which the button is situated as well as copy and "paste special" the values in the fixed cells $J$2, $K$2,$L$2, and $M$2. I've attached a file to clarify what I'm sure is an extremely convaluted statement of my problem.
I am trying to create a worksheet that has multiple radio buttons. Each radio button is linked to a Macro. I need there to be many buttons running down one side of the worksheet. Each button needs to perform a macro that is relevant to the cells in the same row that it is on.
Essentially what i am trying to do is make a macro that when the button is pressed copys data from H6 and paste it into B6. The button is situated above I6. I need a button for each row from 6 to 110.
While this macro is easy to create (i use the record button and then assign the macro to the button), i would have to do this 104 times and assign a new macro to each button.
Is it possible to change the color of buttons or command buttons? There does not seem to be any place that allows this under properties for buttons, although there does for command bars. However, I've tried recording a macro as I change the color, but nothing get's recorded so I'm not sure what the syntax would be.
I have a spreadsheet with several buttons and I'd like them to change colors as they are pressed so it's possible to see what you've already done. And then, as soon as any other cell on the sheet is changed, the buttons reset color.
I would have like a chance to be able to remove the apparent potenitial dangerous problem from the thread below and not close it after 10 mins. I'm not on the site permenantly and keep dipping back in eveynow and again. I dont know what the issue is as when I open the file up I dont get any error messages. I have tried this on my machine using Office 2003 and Vista also another PC using Office 2003 and XP
[url]
The only error I get is a message saying Disk or Network error, when testing it on the XP Machine this is because doesnt have access to the Database it sends the data to.
sometimes pivot tables won't give me the details I want the way I want. any time my boss asks me for a monthly report I have to do everything manually from the pivot table and insert the data on another table where I put the filteres data. I want to be able to get a monthly sales report per store that will populate itself in a daily basis, I also want to be able to select a store, style, size and date from a form in Excel and see the report in a sheet. Aproblem that I have found in order to use the size as a parameter is that the size comes in the same line as the item description and do not know how to make excel to check just for the size in the description field. The attached file contains sales data for a better understanding of my case.
I have created a form which is called up via a macro and then shows a combobox which contains the names of the worksheets in the workbook. I am trying to enable the user to select one of the worksheet names from the combobox and then store that name (the book does not have fixed sheet names) and continue with the original macro using the stored name. I just can't figure out how to use the selected name in the original macro.
I have created a form to input parking ticket data to a spreadsheet, it all works exactly as i want it to, but i really need it to tell me the next available number or empty line, so i can use that for filing and audit purposes, ideally i would like it to do sequential numbering, but i've been looking for weeks and cant find a soloution, i have basic knowledge of VBA and i'm really struggling with this,
So I have a work book with a number of user forms. One form I have completed has several navigation buttons (previous, save, next......) a couple of drop downs and a "tabbed" (pages) area with a text box on each. I think I finally have it looking (and working) the way I want. The issue is I need 12 more that are Identical (different text - but layout and code is the same) To make them look and work the same how can I copy the one I have correct? Is Export/Import the way to go? Does that bring all the code?
I would like to know if it is possible to display a form using a variable containing the form name rather than the form name itself, I have tried everything I can think of and cannot make it work. I know I can use CASE SELECT but I have a large number of forms involved and would like to use a variable name if possible.
I have checkboxes in N85:N100 and O85:O100. When I use the following code, it gives the same link in N85 and O85. How can I put a specific rannge so that it will only do N85: N100 and then do O85:O100.
Sub change_forms_checkbox_links() Dim mychkbox As CheckBox Dim wks As Worksheet Set wks = ActiveSheet
I am trying to graduate out of the crayon age of menus on a worksheet, to using a User Form Menu. Problem is, I don't understand how they work. I've created a test program using a simple form with an option button, a combo button, and a command button. The goal is if the option button is true, it places the color selected in the combo button on the worksheet. Here is my code, what am I missing to make it work?
I am trying to put together two combo boxes, Combo1 and Combo2, the content of Combo2 will depend on the selection made in Combo1, for example Combo1 will have 10 items, once an item is selected Combo2 will have different sub selections relating to that item. I know you can do this via Validation, but the problem with that I have about 4000 options in the combo1 and about 60000 in the second, here is the structure of my data:
1) I have a scrollbar that gets set to UserForm1 height.... yet, if the form is taller than the page, it won't let me scroll down past what I can see on my computer screen... what would be the cause of that? I get a blinking black light on the scroll bar as well so there must be something I need to fix with that
2) In UserForm1, I have a multipage form with a page called Accounts... I am adding check boxes to it with code... right now it is adding it to the far left in UserForm1... what is the syntax to run my check box loop to populate the Accounts page in the Multipage form?
I have spent a long while trying to figure out what i'm sure is a very simple problem. I have searched the archives and found nothing to specifically address my question.
Basically I am trying to export the data entered into an Excel form into the fields of a Word document template, so that i can print it according to a particular design.
I have managed to write the code successfully enough that the data is transferrred across to the right fields in Word, but I can't seem to work out how to transfer the subsequent rows. It is currently only exporting the second row (after the header).
Could anyone possibly look at my code and tell me how i can export the new values every time they are entered in the form and not just the first line?
Private Sub CancelButton_Click() Unload Me End Sub Private Sub Save1_Click() Dim iRow As Long Dim ws As Worksheet Set ws = Worksheets("RA") 'find first empty row in database iRow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, 2) _ .End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
I'm using forms toolbox to add textboxes on an user input sheet for my workbook.
There would be 3 textboxes included in the group box added to the user input sheet.
I'm struggling with the code to accomplish the following:
Textbox1 - is a % input. I would like the input to be formatted to 2 percentage points. In other words, if someone enters 2, it will show as 2.00% and I want the 2.00% to be recognized as such in the spreadsheet calculations. In other words, the input is used in the calculations in another sheet.
Code thus far (and I may be offbase on this):
Private Sub TextBox1_Change() Sheets("Sheet2").Range("rate").Value = TextBox1.Value End Sub Problem - the cursor is not moving and the result of the input is not showing. I would like the cursor to move from textbox1 to textbox2 to textbox3 by tab or enter button.
Textbox2 - is decimal input. I would like the input 5, it will formatted to show as 5.0. This input is used in the calculations in another sheet.
Private Sub TextBox2_Change() Sheets("Sheet2").Range("multiple").Value = TextBox1.Value End Sub
Textbox3 - is a result box based on the inputs from textbox1 and textbox2. I would like the result to be shown to the user in this textbox3 and for it to be greyed out and not to accept any inputs from the user. That is, it is not an input box but rather a results box.
I have created a bill of lading form that we use in shipping. Each time they need a new form, they copy the "blank" form. Is there any way to have these forms "auto-number"?
Is it possible to pass a variable between forms? For example, I have a textbox on a form that takes a date from a user. Next to the text box is a button that calls another form that is a selectable calender with each of the dates on the calender as buttons. If a date button is pressed a variable is created which I want to pass back to the first form and place it into the textbox.
I’m trying to do a pull down with scrolling ability in a cell that references another worksheet. I want to look like the one that occurs when you use “Data Validation”. I’ve seen this in another workbook and it does not look like the used VBA.
