For some reason my selection won't return to where it's supposed to in a listbox after I've increased it's column widths. It's very strange.
I've put together an example of the issue as the actual workbook is enormous, but the demonstration seems to work.
I've tried exporting the Listindex resetting code to an external function, but it didn't help either.
Can anyone understand this behaviour?
I am working in excel 2003. I have a number of combo boxes, and I would like to get the listindex of a given box. It is easy to get the value of the box number "x"
Controls("Combobox" & x).value
works no problem, however
Controls("combobox" & x).listindex
does not work, and while I can do
Combobox1.listindex
I cannot figure out how to make the 1 a variable.
I have a combobox which properly populates the list of items it should display, however upon selecting the item the combobox displays that item's listindex, not the cell contents. I've tried to populate the combobox a couple different ways and the list from which to choose displays properly all the time, but upon selecting I cant get it to stop displaying the listindex.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI need some assistance with the code below. I have a userform that has a listbox with 2 columns of information. When there is a match between the value in the listbox and the value in the cell for a given row, that row is deleted. I thought this was very straightforward, but i'm not getting this to work right...
Private Sub cmdDelete_Click()
Dim Val2 As String
Dim Val3 As String
Dim doit As Long
Dim roww As Long
Dim LastRow As Long
Val2 = ListBox1.List(ListBox1.ListIndex, 0)
Val3 = ListBox1.List(ListBox1.ListIndex, 1)

If doit = vbOK Then
I have a listbox on a form that refers to a dynamic range. The problem I have is that the listindex returned from selecting an item in the listbox returns the same number for an entry of the same value in the first bound column (in this case Col A, see below). I guess it's kind of acting like a primary key if.
My Dynamic Range that shows up In the listbox.
Col A Col B
0700 1500 '<-- returns Listindex = 0
0700 1800 '<-- returns Listindex = 0
0800 1630 '<-- returns Listindex = 1
0800 1830 '<-- returns Listindex = 1
I have a form with several combo boxes, and they function just the way I like as far as being able to pick from the list, or typing in them and having it show you the next available item in the list as you add letters. Whats happening that I would like to know how to deal with is... as soon as you type a letter that is not in my lookup range it generates an error. "Could not get the list property - Invalid property array index". I don't want people to be able to add to the list, but I would like a msgbox to pop up. Then allow them to go back to the box and try again.

i was searching in VBA help & found this example:
a macro that steps through the list of files found during a search and displays the path for each file.
With Application.FileSearch
For i = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count
MsgBox .FoundFiles(i)
Next I
End With
how can i modify this macro so that it displays only
the file name not the full path
for example instead of displaying
"C:Documents and SettingsDesktopMainstatment1.txt"
i want it to display
"statment1.txt"

I written up a marco code to do series of calculations for me. I have one program that will use different matrix size (say 5 rows by 5 colums for one set of calcuations and open up another, but with 105 rows and 35 columns)
Now,
the way it works is the user input data in row 1 and column 1 and the marco does the following codes-
Dim numrows As Integer
Dim numcols As Integer
numrows=worksheets("template").usedrange.rows.count
numcols=worksheets("template").usedrange.columsn.count
thisworkbook. names.add "matrix",,,,,,,,"=!r2c2:r" & numrows & "c" & numcols
this code defines my range that will be used in the formulas further down the code.
the problem is that I test ran the code using the matrix=b2:ai105
and I was using the code for a run with matrix=b2:q77
but the code is giving me the range from the previous macro run (ie. b2:ai105) and want it to use the matrix based on new data size (say b2:q77).
I tried using activesheet.usedrange into the macro, but it does not work.
Basically I need to "reset" usedrange property so it uses the correct range every time.
I'd like to know if anybody of you knows which is the property that determines the number of tabs in a tabbed panel. I'd like to realize a dynamic tabbed panle where the number of tabbed panels are regulated by a variable.

I used to get this error when I accidentally tried to name two controls with the same name.
This time I had just highlighted a set of labels to increase the width from 96 to 108. It locked up with that Invalid property value error.

I am trying to get a combo box to work, but keep encountering the error "Invalid Property Value."
When the combobox entry is deleted and the user moves to the next text box in the userform, this error pops up which is very annoying. It also pops up when the word entered doesn't match, like it is supposed to.
I have MatchRequired set to True, because I want an error message to come up, but with my own error message like " That name doesn't exist, please try again ".
I can't figure out a way to ignore the "Invalid Property Value." error message, and show my own customized message.
why this won't work or at least a way to accomplish the same thing. Basically, I'm trying to hide unneeded data by making the font the same color as the cell:
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have the following two codes on a userform, The first code performs two steps:
The first step is running the second code (MyDate), which is used for checking the entries in the userform textboxes and if there is any wrong entry a message box appears then it exits sub.
However, what happens when it finds any wrong entry is that it displays the msgbox and instead of exiting sub as it is requested in the (MyDate) code, it resumes running and moves to the second step and adds 1 to ComboBox1 ListIndex.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am working on a Property Management spreadsheet to track the availability of vacant units (and upcoming vacant units). I'm trying to write a formula to count the number of current units that are listed as vacant, so that I can ultimately report on the overall unit availability as of any given period (today, 15, 30, 60, 90-days out). All of the data in this spreadsheet is dynamic and each field can change at any time. There are also a lot of blank fields as well. I am using Excel 2003.
Here are the fields/data that I am using for my analysis:
Column A - (Reporting Period Dates): A2 = 5/20/08, A3 = 6/5/08, A4 = 6/20/08, etc.
Column B - (Unit Status: V=Vacant, O=Occupied): B2 = V, B3 = V, B4 = V, B5 = V, B6 = V, B7 = V, B8 = O, B9 = O, B10 = O, B11 = O, B12 = O, B13 = O
Column C - (M/O Date. These dates represent when the current resident will move out) - Cells C2:C13 contain dates for when each tenant will move out
Column D - (M/I Date. These dates represent when the future resident will move in) - Cells D2:D13 contain dates when the future tenant will move in
If my reporting period is 5/20/08 (cell A2), then I need to calculate how many Vacant units (B2:B13) I will have as of 5/20. The formula will need to count all of the current Vacant units (B2:B13), plus it will also have to take into account any Move Outs (C2:C13) during the reporting period. For example, let's say we have an Occupied unit that is scheduled to move out on 5/15/08. The cell will show this as "O" but the formula will need to determine if the M/O date is <= the Reporting Date of 5/20/08 (A2). If so, then Excel would count this unit as a Vacant for the period.
In addition to this, I also need the formula to look at upcoming Move IN dates (D2:D13). The formula will also have to determine if the MI date is <= the Reporting date (A2). If the MI date falls prior to the Reporting Date, then this unit should be considered as Occupied and should NOT be added to the total available units. NOTE - there are quite a few cells in column D that are blank and don't have MI dates. If there isn't a MI date, then the formula should assume that those units are Vacant if it is past the prior tenants MO date.
I'm assuming that Excel can handle multiple conditions like this, however, I am not smart enough to figure it out.
