Change Properties Of Controls On Ribbon Toolbar. 2007
Feb 26, 2008
I've created a custom ribbon which contains checkboxes that hide or show columns.
I would like to change the enable state of the checkboxes while the user is interacting with the spreadsheet.
For example:I would like to disable all of the checkboxes if they are not viewing sheet1I would like to disable the second checkbox if the first checkbox is unchecked.
I know how to set these all on initialize. I just have not figured out how to update these controls after it has been opened.

We are using Windows7 with Excel 2007. We have old code from excel 2003 and earlier that was adding a msoControlPopup with other sub-controls using the code below:
Code:
Set HelpMenu = CommandBars(1).FindControl(Id:=30010)
If HelpMenu Is Nothing Then
' Add the menu to the end
[Code].....
I tried going to Excel Options>Customize>Reset to reset any customizations to the quick access toolbar as this was recommended by something else I found online. This did not fix the problem.
I can find the control in the Immediate window but it just isn't showing in the add-ins tab. if I can find and repair that XML file perhaps?

I currently upgrading some add-in to Excel 2007. This one concern a toolbar or Ribbon as they call it now. I am creating a toggle button using XML
<customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2006/01/customui">
<ribbon>
<tabs>
<tab id="rxTrading" label=" Trading" >
<group id="rxDownloadStockData" label="Download Stock Data" >
<button id="rxDownloadData" label="Download" onAction="rxDataStock_Download" />
<toggleButton id="rxEnableDisableDowwnload" label="Enable Download" />
</group>
</tab>
</tabs>
</ribbon>
</customUI>
How can I change the name of toggle button to "Disbale Download" after clicking on the toggle button? I am trying to find the answer on WROX Excel 200 VBA but I am lost.

I am trying to implement code that can handle a dynamic number of objects, specifically check boxes.
I know of eval( ) in perl that allows one to dynamically create command lines. For instance, the following code would change all of the Checkbox values to 1. The syntax may not be correct but the idea is solid.
Do While i < num_checkboxes
eval("Checkbox" .i. ".Value=1)
Loop
Does this funtion also exist in excel?

I want to access the Properties of a number of controls in a running form, and these controls may or may not be contained in a Frame or a MultiPage.
In particular I want the Top and Left for these controls, which means I have to first find out if the control is contained in a Frame or MultiPage so I can get the reference for Top and Left. I'm ok with doing this for controls inside a Frame, but the MultiPage is eluding me. I get an error when I try to access these controls and it looks like they are actually owned by the individual Pages of the MultiPage.
how do I find out if a given control is contained in a given MultiPage?
Validate UserForm MultiPage and Frame Controls

Someone sent me a spreadsheet that made my ribbon and everything disappear. All that remains is the grid field and the title bar.

In a program that I'm intimately familiar with (Excel) I seem to find it annoying. ...or at least in my limited usage thus far it's been that way. Takes up a lot of screen real estate and seems to be a bit of a cluttered jumbled mess of text and graphics.
For programs I use less frequently (Publisher) it seems to be helpful. I can sorta right-click my way through lots of things and get stuff done. That's kinda nice.
For a program I use moderately (Word) it's sort of a toss-up. I can't find stuff easily, but once I figure it out, it seems like it's a more efficient design.

I imported an Excel spreadsheet from a computer running an older version of Excel to my computer with Excel 2007. I opened up the specially designed add-ins tab and started a new worksheet which I then saved. When the programme was closed and re-opened, the add-ins tab was missing so I could not continue working on my new file.
Is this a compatibility issue between the versions of Excel (yet everything worked fine when freshly opened)? Following the help instructions I could not recover the bespoke add-in tab.
how I get this back each time I open the file? It is important I get the bespoke add-ins as they are designed to input runners taking part in a race and working out the results afterwards in various categories.

I would like to be able to automatically minimize the Excel 2007 ribbon on opening a particular workbook. My preference is to be able to apply that minimization to certain worksheets only, but if that's not possible then minimizing the ribbons on all sheets in the workbook will be ok.
Will I also need a BeforeClose code as well to reinstate the ribbon so that it is visible when opening subsequent workbooks?

I've been trying to research how to do this for a while now and still can't figure it out. My impression is that this is fairly straightforward in Excel 2010 since the menus and ribbons are easily customizable but not so in Excel 2007.
So far I can get macro shown as a button in the Quick Access Toolbar. But the issue is that I can't organize them or customize the icons.
Is there an accepted practice for this?

I have managed to create a command button in excel 2007 that performs a macro upon a click. But, after re-opening the workbook, I am unable to right click on the button to recall the properties window.

I am trying to use VBA to change the caption of checkboxes in "Sheet 2" when I change the value of a cell "A1" in "Sheet 1".
This code is working:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)If Intersect(Target, ActiveSheet.Range("A1")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Worksheets("Sheet 2").CheckBox1.Caption = "New Caption"End Sub
But there are 6 checkboxes in Sheet 2 and I would like to do something like this:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)If Intersect(Target, ActiveSheet.Range("A1")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
For i = 0 to 5Worksheets("Sheet 2").Control("CheckBox" & i+1).Caption = "Box" & i+1Next iEnd Sub
This doesn't work.. So I guess the Control-function is wrong.

I am having a hard time setting the MultiLine, Scrollbars and WordWrap properties through programmation. Actually what I want my code to do is to create a set of textboxes in my spreadsheet and then set the MultiLine, Scrollbars and WordWrap properties. Right now I can create the boxes and rename them but I'm unable to change the other properties.
inst_num = Range("AA1").Value
ActiveSheet. OLEObjects.Add("Forms.TextBox.1", Link:=False, _
DisplayAsIcon:=False, Left:=20, Top:=95 + (inst_num - 1) * 105, Width:=70, Height _
:=30).Select
ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add(ClassType:="Forms.TextBox.1", Link:=False, _
DisplayAsIcon:=False, Left:=100, Top:=95 + (inst_num - 1) * 105, Width:=100, Height _
:=30).Select.............

When I open a spreadsheet I get the following message
Excel found unreadable content in Book_Name. Do you want to recover the contents of this workbook.
All the information I find says:
This issue occurs if the following conditions are true:
The workbook contains a PivotTable that uses key performance indicators (KPIs).
The KPIs are created in the Analysis Services Business Intelligence Development Studio.
One or more of the KPIs have an expression in the Current Time Member property.
and the fix is : To resolve this issue, remove the expressions from all Current Time Member properties.
My issue is - the spreadsheet with Pivot tables is supplied to me. I am using Excel 2007 - how to remove the expressions?
When I do this on another machine same version of excel I have no issue.

I am attempting to create a few control textboxes to be present in my Excel worksheet to use with a VBA macro but for the life of me I cannot figure out how to do this in Office 2007. I can create normal textboxes but cannot figure out how to get textboxes using the design toolbar (I can't get the toolbar either).

I have a button wich will add data entered on a form to a spreadsheet if the data meets certain criteria. If it does not it will not let you add anything. I would like to add a second button that will add the data even if it does not meet the criteria but I need the second button to only be enabled with a password. Maybe a macro to change the button properties from locked to unlocked (true to false).

It has been awhile since I've worked on anything and I can't remember how to do something that is probably very simple. I have placed an option button on my worksheet and cannot for the life of me remember how to change the properties. When I right click and select properties a box pops up but there is no info there. I want to be able to change the name and group etc.

I would like to set up some option buttons so that the will be become visible and enabled when a check box is checked, and the opposite when the same checkbox is not check. This is my problem
Private Sub cbpDiscAlum_Click()
Dim myOption As Control
Dim myValue As Boolean
myValue = cbpDiscAlum.Value = True
If myValue = True Then
For Each myOption In pDiscounts.Controls
myOption.Visble = True
myOption.Enabled = True
Next myOption
Else
For Each myOption In pDiscounts.Controls
myOption.Visible = False
myOption.Enabled = False
Next myOption
End If
End Sub
It is the 5th command where it gets hung up: For Each myOption In pDiscounts.Controls. I am sure I am spelling both of the names correctly: the checkbox, and the group name.

I am trying to assign a macro to the Print button on the Standard Toolbar. Basically I want that button to print the number of pages I've specified in a cell, but I still want to be able to use the 'File/Print...' option if I need to.
I did try to solve this issue in an earlier post, but this exact problem remained unsolved. For more information

I often use the .TAG property on controls as a sort of temporary container to hold variables, arrays and such but this gets messy because I sometimes forget which control I used for what since there appears to be only 1 tag property per control. Are there any controls that have numerous .TAG like properties I could use (even name) to hold my temp data?
