I am trying to simply change the text inside a textbox named (TextBox 2). My current line of code is giving me the error "The item with the specified name wasn't found". Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot this?

As part of a program I'm writing in VBA (for Excel 2010), I have a textbox in a user form used as an interface to write a formula in cells in Excel.The resulting value of a formula from a cell is loaded up into the textbox. It would be shown in the textbox like "See 1.2 and 1.3" where the formula in the cell is
[Code].....
This is just used as an example but the principle is there. It is worth noting that I’m writing this for very inexperienced Excel users but I need them to be able to edit the string part of the formula without breaking the formula.
However where I’m struggling is to pick up a selection change event inside a text box already selected. I need to be able to check if the textbox.SelStart is within an address value or within the string in the textbox.
The event Enter won’t work if the user is already editing the textbox (i.e. typing stuff) and then clicking or using the keyboard arrow to move the cursor somewhere else inside the textbox. I don’t think the event Change is the solution either as it would mean that the user would have already typed something and as a result the formula may already be broken.
I have had a good look around and I didn’t find an event for a selection change inside a textbox. Does it exists and/or is there a way that would have the same result?
I am developing a form to get the user's name. I want to put some default text in the textbox where the user types their name. I want the form to delete the default text when the user clicks on the text box or after they start typing their name.
Attached is the form and code that runs the form : UserName.xlsm
is there a way of changing the text direction for an ActiveX textbox? I need it to show the text in some of the boxes vertically but in other boxes horizontal.

So far, the code that I have that doesnt work at all, which I'm not even sure where to place (I tried in the Workbook - Open?), is the following:

I'm trying to create a simple VBA function in Excel so that I can sort and calculate results based on various conditions. I can get everything to work except changing the color of the cell where the output is placed. Here is what I have so far:
Function nameOfMyFunction(arguments)
If conditions Then
nameOfMyFunction = "No GRP"
ActiveCell.Font.Color = RGB(255,0,0)

I'm sure that its something simple, but I've spent long enough on my own trying to figure it out and nothing seems to work.
I am writing a macro to automate the filling up some data from excel to company website. I have changed the website name in this post for data protection purpose. The excel will login for different clients by using the combination of username and password for respective clients and then some data are required to be inserted in a text box on a web page, I think the text box is on a form and form is within an iframe, within the web page. Once the data is inserted into text box, one button (Submit), which is also on the same form, is to be clicked.
On the click of a button, the updated data appears on another section, I could not make out if it is an form or frame, which is under the abovementioned form. Once we are happy with the way data appears on the web page, we have to click another button (Update), which is on the same section, to finally updating the data on website.
I wrote the following code to login to the website and then to navigate to the web page where I have to fill up the performance numbers in a text box.
The first problem is how to access the text box inside the form from VBA so that the macro can write a number in that text box and how to access the button to submit the data. The HTML code, which can be seen on click of F12, is attached below.
The second problem is how to access the Update button inside the other section, so that the data will be finally uploaded.
VB:
Sub LoginToCorpAccount()
Dim ie As Object
Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")

I want to know how to display part of a cells text value, inside another cell.
Suppose in cell A1 i have "20-Jun-14"
How would I get cell B2 to display just "Jun"?
I have one column full of Item #s and Descriptions. I have another column that I want JUST the Item# in it.
For example:
Column 1:
Gyroscope REF#1234 Bike Thing
Column 2 Should Be:
1234
Column 1:
BallWall Bikes Ret# 12456 Helmet Thing
Column 2S hould Be:
12456
I don't know how to do this (I do know how to do VBA mildly, and I am pretty good with formulas). I also have a database of every Item# that could be in that cell.
I have a text box that has default text in it. When I mouse down on the box I would like it to select all of the text in the box automatically. Does anyone have any code to do this?

I has about 24 tab , in the 25th one i collect data from all previous , using below formula inside each cell to get

What i want is t replace the sheet name which in previous example is 2014 wk12 with relative name in column A
The closest i have in mind is to make it as below ( it is not working ) so what shall be the working formula of the below
=INDEX('Tab name from Column A '!$C$1:$C$17,MATCH("Total LTD Result",'Tab name from Column A'!$A$1:$A$17,0))

How can I amend this to work against Textbox's in the array..?? Textbox2, Textbox4 etc etc?!?!
This code works fine, the problem is if I put a number in, and then backspace in the textbox to change the number, I get a runtime 13, type mismatch. This error only occurs when I delete all the numbers in the cell. For example, say the number in the cell is 5025. If i change it to 5123, that is I did not have to delete the first 5, it will work. If I want to change to something like 4167, i must delete the first 5 and it will give the error. I have only been using VBA for a couple weeks, I assume it's something simple.
Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
Dim StaffCost As Single
Dim AvgDriveTime As Single
Dim AddlDrives As Single
StaffCost = OLEObjects("TextBox1").Object.Value
AvgDriveTime = Range("E5").Value
AddlDrives = Range("F5").Value
With Range("G5")
.Font.Bold = False
.Value = StaffCost * AvgDriveTime * AddlDrives
End With

I have around 10 buttons in a sheet and all the buttons have same macro. I am trying to extract the text inside the button which I click (and not the name of the button). How to do it using vba?
I have used the following:
buttontext =ActiveSheet.Shapes(Application.Caller).Text
buttontext =ActiveSheet.Shapes(Application.Caller).Caption
PS: When I used buttontext =ActiveSheet.Shapes(Application.Caller).Name there was no error but it gave the name of the button not the text inside it.
Code:
Private Sub cmdSearchButton_Click()
Dim txtbox As String 'stores lookup value
Dim x As Variant 'value for wwid txt box
Dim ForeName As String
Dim SurName As String
Dim wwid As Variant
Dim iPosition As Integer
[Code] .......
Here is my code, it does a vlookup and if the persons name is not found it will split the text entered into forename and surname but when i try and add
Code:
frmAdd.txtForename.Text = "&ForeName &"
frmAdd.txtSurname.Text = "&SureName &"
It actually displays &ForeName & in the text box of the next from rather than what ForeName is..
eg. John Smith -> search button -> user not found msg -> user wants to add user -> string is split into forename and surname -> forename = John , surname = Smith -> display this in the second form.
What code should i be using to do this, i thought that &ForeName & would work.
Looking for a macro to insert a textbox with the textbox containing a formula rather then text.

Is it possible to have a macro create an Elipse then place text inside the elipse. The text will be numeric and automatically count from a user entered starting value. It will only count in whole numbers from 1 to 4 digits in length (1 thru 9999). No leading or trailing zeros.
I am looking to do this by clicking the mouse on an image placing the elipse/text shapes with the elipse outline ontop of the text. The worksheet will have an image covering its entirety. I recorded a couple macros but, this one, is not so easy. I may have actually found new errors never seen by mankind before. (I kid).

rearragning text on excel. I believe Macro will be needed to solve this problem so if anyone can help me out, it will be a big help. Thank you.
Example 1:
I need to rearrange
"trace Silt, cm SAND, some- f Gravel" into
"cm SAND, some- f Gravel, trace Silt"
Example 2:
I need to rearrange
"some+ Silt, f SAND, trace- f Gravel" into
"f SAND, some+ Silt, trace- f Gravel"
There are many different cases for this problem. So if there is a way for the computer to recognize the Capitalized word and move it to the front and rest should be arange in order listed below.
Order
and+
and
and-
some+
some
some-
little+
little
little-
trace+
trace
trace-
each term is seprarated by commas.
For example
f SAND, some+ Silt, trace- f Gravel
each color represent one complete sentence. and the order for them should be capitalized funciton first, then the follow the order provided above.
By "Return all row numbers that have a given value written somewhere inside text in their column B" I mean....
I want to be able to search an alphanumeric value "ABC12345" within a column that has a paragraph of text written in each row, I want to know which rows have this value written somewhere in them and have it return 2,4,33, as row 2 and 4 and 33 have this value in them inside column B on that row.
on column A i have the respective row numbers all the way down ie: ( 1,2,3,4, etc) (to pull up the row numbers)(unless you have a better way)
On Column B i have the paragraphs of text to search in (there is lots of text and spaces in the paragraphs.)
On column C i have the value to look for... ie: ABC12345 (different values in each row of column C) to be compared to all of column B
On column D would be the formula to Pull down and get the results.
and something tells me you might have a better way of getting the row numbers rather than having column A dedicated to numerating each row 1,2,3,etc

I am making a buiness card request form, which I have attached. On the Master Sheet (Sheet 1), the user enters in his/her personal data, such as his name address, phone number, etc. After he/she finished entering all the relevant data, Business Card Layout (Sheet 2) automatically populates and shows the user what their business card will look like.
Everything works fine, however I just realized that the contact information might vary from person to person. Right now, a person can enter 5 different contact information, but most of them will probably only choose four.
I wanted to know how to shift the cells down if the user does not fill out one of the contact information.
I have data in 2 columns.
COLUMN A COLUMN B
2008-01-01 00:00:00 CRIMINAL EVENT
2008-01-04 00:34:48 OTHER
2008-02-04 00:23:59 SUSPICIOUS INCIDENT
2008-01-31 23:59:59 ENEMY ACTION
2008-01-08 00:45:43 FRIENDLY ACTION
2008-01-09-00:45:33 RAID
I need a formula or macro that will count all the times "Criminal Event", "Other", "Suspicious Incident", and "Enemy Action" occured in January. Also if possible I need to not specify column ranges, such as A2:A7, but instead it needs to find the last cell containing data in Columns A and B, and use that as the end point. For example it would search A2:Last Cell Containing Data

I have an userform with 10 txtBoxes that I want to have the color changed based off another textbox Values (they will side by side, so when the user enter a value, it will know either it's excelent, good, average or bad based on the colors green, blue, yellow and red).
Is there a way to do so? Because all I have managed to do is to change one txtBox color per time, based on the value entered on the same text box (i.e. if I change the text box which should be changed, nothing changes).
I want to get the text inside the cell which is to the left of the first blank cell of a column.
