i would like to retain the focus of the current cell before the user clicks on a button to run a macro (see below) to open a userform...?
userform.show
(the cell focus seems to disapper...after the button is clicked, but does stay on the cell when i run the macro from tools macros...)
Need the way of getting the name of the text box that currently has focus on a user form?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am simply trying to write a macro or code that will set all the check box values to "False" each time I initiate the User form. So that the user form does not "carry over" check box values from the last time the User form was used.
However I had to make sure I cleared the value from the cell that each control is associated with.(the controlsource in the user form properties.)
I have a workbook that prompts a user with a msgbox and then a SaveAs dialog. It works but when users intend to open the workbook from Internet Explorer, the SaveAs dialog stays behind the browser and everything freezes. Ideally I would want the workbook SaveAs to stay on top till user saves the workbook. Any help?. Here is my Open and Save code.

I have an active form that is always in focus. I would like to be able to seamlessly transition back to the worksheets under it, and move back and forth between the worksheet entry and form entry. Is there some way to alter the focus between events to do so (like a mouse over type event)? Currently, I can only exit the form to get back to the worksheet. excel 03 sp3

VB:

When I do this twice, however, the second form seems to freeze/hang and I have to close Excel and then re-open it. I feel like I'm overlooking something obvious...
I have a userform, when using the form it has focus, once I click on my "Ok" command button I want to return focus to the workbook while I leave the userform open. I already have the userform open and on top of the workbook.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have created a VB User form in Excel. I have a value in Cell A1. On clicking the cell, the user form has to be invoked. I do not find a way to do this using HYPERLINK function. If I use a label in that cell, I am able to implement it. But I may want to sort the excel cells and in that case the label idea will not work out!!!!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been scouring the internet trying to find a solution to this one and I keep hitting a wall. I have a userform and I would like people to be able to click on a txtbox and a calendar pop up. they select a date, hit ok and it populates the txt box with that date. I have made the calendar form and I am able to get it to appear but how do I get it to put the date back into the txtbox? There are multiple date txtboxes on the sheet and I need to populate each one individually as you click on them. All of the methods I have found so far are about populating a field in excel

I have a Database and user form, in the user form i have a field named “Vehicle No” this is a combo box from which a user needs to select the Vehicle numbers, and all these are working fine now, I need your help in the following:
When user selects the second field named "Select Vendor name" i need a pop up window which shows all the Vehicles belongs to the vendor which they have selected, and with the popup window user selects the vehicle number then the Vehicle number combo box should be filled.
Currently users have to select by scrolling through Combo box which takes long time and difficult to find by scrolling.
I have a user form that has a combo box "City" two text boxes one called "Flight" and the other "Date". What I'm trying to do is to prevent the user from saving the data input from the user form if any of those three fields is left blank. The code that I have so far checks all of the required fields, if any are left blank a message notifys which field(s) is left blank and return the focus back to that field. But the rest of code also fires.
What I really need is either to stop the code if any fields are blank and return the focus back to the blank field, the user completes the field(s) and clicks the save again, or better yet, pause the code until all the required fields are completed and then complete the save. (There is actually another 200+ lines of code in this sub, but I deleted it to keep the post a little shorter.)
I have created a registration workbook for this year's youth sports league. All of the information is entered into a User Form and separated onto it's appropriate sheet designated by the child's age. Next year, I would like to use this year's workbook to look up returning players.
Will it be possible to add a "lookup" button into my form, or create a lookup program, that once the registrar clicks on the correct player, the information is plugged into the User Form, the registrar adjusts the age and any necessary info, presses enter, and the information is copied into the appropriate category in the new workbook? I haven't worked with User Forms long enough to know if they can be filled in that way, but if this can be done, you are the people who would know.
I'm using a series of user forms for data entry to a workbook, some of them open next stage user form on completion (OK cmd button).
All that is working fine, but I'd like the initial form to close on showing the next one. I've tried adding Unload and Hide commands following the frmInsertEntry.Show (Next stage form), to no avail, but I'd like this user form to close or hide at the end of the sub.

I'm working on a spreadhseet which has several macros that can take up to 5 minutes to run. When the macro(s) complete, I pop up a userform to provide instructions and collect some additional data from the user.
The "problem" is that when the user moves to another application to do other work, the user form remains hidden behind the active app. I've added some text to the status bar to let the users know the processing is done, but they would like something more obvious - so, is there any way I can force focus back to Excel?

When I run this I get this halt "System error&H80070057 (-2147024809). The parameter is incorrect. I havn't been doing VBA in a while as I am retired now but I have used this particular statement many times in the past and never had this error before. I have made sure there no typos. I open another workbook which has forms opening and copy pasted the the routine into my other workbook but I get the same error.
How can I prevent a user from opening another workbook in an Excel session "from the outside"?
I'm fairly new to VB. I'm developing (in VB 2003) a simple but SECURE Excel environment which will allow a user to update a hidden Master_Records workbook. I need to keep the user's Excel session secure...for example, I've disabled all Excel Toolbars and Command Buttons, effectively preventing the user from doing anything except filling in some cell values and clicking on a few custom buttons in the worksheet. But how can I prevent the user from opening another workbook into the active session from his desktop and introducing some malicious code into the session via that route?
One respondent in another forum (the only one, in fact) suggested that I look into "instantiating workbook level events" so that I can detect when other workbooks are open. I'm not sure what that means, is there someone here who could give me some guidance into that solution?
I have this script below which I am trying to modify to pull information from each file in the folder and draw cell values from different sheets within the file. I have the script working prior to the modification but the difference was I was pulling all the different cell values from the same single sheet in the file.
I believe the issue I have (Excel reporting that file is already open and then eventually erroring out) is because the way I'm going about this is causing Excel to open the file multiple times without closing (my coding isn't the best) here -
Do While fn ""
On Error GoTo Handler:
Set ws = Workbooks.Open(myDir & fn).Sheets(7)
Set ws2 = Workbooks.Open(myDir & fn).Sheets(2)
Set ws3 = Workbooks.Open(myDir & fn).Sheets(3)
Set ws4 = Workbooks.Open(myDir & fn).Sheets(8)
Sheet4.Range("a" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1).Resize(, 6).Value = _
Array(ws4.Range("AI6").Value, ws.Range("ac4").Value, ws2.Range("ac4").Value, ws3.Range("ac4").Value, ws4.Range("ac4").Value, myDir & fn, fn & "-" & ws.Name)
Workbooks(fn).Close False
fn = Dir
Loop
I'm hoping there is a better way of pulling information from multiple sheets in the file that actually works as the above now I think it through is obviously not very clever.
A second issue I have is that whilst some people running this script don't have access to save to this network drive (so can not save changes), some users CAN. Is there a way I can force the script to open these files as Read Only or ensure that they are closed UN-saved - just to cover any mishaps??
Here is the full script -...................
I'm developing a workbook containing 121 sheets. Sheet 1 is effectively an index, and uses 120 form control checkboxes to unhide and display the selected sheets individually.
The code I'm using for each checkbox is below and is in a module.
when my userform opens, it automatically puts the cursor into the first text box (based on the tab order) of the userform. I also set this text box value to read "0" (zero) when it first opens.
My questions is, can I make the userform open up as it does now (above), but ALSO highlight the zero ("0") in the text box? The reason is so that when the user inputs a number into this box, it also overwrites the zero in the box at the same time (because the zero would already be highlighted)?
If cell K6= "ERROR" I need a message to pop up on screen with the message "Wrong Entry click OKAY to find, Click CANCEL to ignore". Clicking OKAY would simply go to worksheet named "MONITOR". Clicking Cancel would just clear the pop up from on screen.

The problem if user want to see the content on sheet or want to change the active cell, he has to close the form and then do any action. This form is initialized by a command and default included in excel as a Add-in. Is there is any way to make the form floating i.e. user can manipulate the data and can see the form as well.
