Is it possible to change the value of an Excel checkbox (from Forms or Control Toolbox) under program control (i.e. using VBA)?
I'm trying to toggle a group of checkboxes on a worksheet from FALSE to TRUE (or back again) using a single button. The checkboxes all have to remain individually selectable by the user even after 'toggling'.
I'm trying to do what I thoughts was the simpliest thing, but for some reason can not manage.
I try to change to value of a checkbox, by a code, without re-running the CheckBox_Click () Macro. I have put a checkbox in a worksheet, and when tickmarking it, a msgbox will pop up (one msgbox for tickmark on), and you can press Yes or No. Pressing No, I will sett the Checkbox.value = False. The problem is, when I use this command, the checkbox_click macro will run all over again. Now, the checkbox is False, and antother msgbox will pop up (another msgbox for tickmark off). The results is then that I first get the msgbox I want, but it is followed by the msgbox for tickmark off, which should only pop up when the checkbox is ticked off manually.
Code is something like follows:
Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
Dim mySheet As Worksheet
Set mySheet = ActiveSheet
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
I have a series of files, all named sequentially by date, for example...
Sales Report - Week of 2009-07-27 - NH.xlsm
Sales Report - Week of 2009-08-03 - NH.xlsm
Sales Report - Week of 2009-08-10 - NH.xlsm
...and so on. (The dates are always Mondays.)
I want to get the contents of a particular range on the previous file (e.g. the "RaceResults" range a.k.a. B4:B33 on "Sales Report - Week of 2009-08-10 - NH.xlsm")
I am trying to distribute an app that uses MSCAL Control. I am including the MSCAL.ocx file in the setup file and it saves it to a dierectory. However, when the app runs it will not load the activex Control (MSCAL)
Application.VBE.ActiveVBProject.References.AddFromFile("c:Program FileBM ApplicationMSCAL.OCX")
I use comments to supply various detail information on the value in the cell. This might take 10-12 lines of comments, but only the first five appear when you hover over the cell. In order to see the entire comment you have to right click and edit then manually resize.
Any tips on how to resize at the time the comment is loaded so no manual intervention is required?
Is it possible to determine the Version of Office / Outlook that is installed on a machine, an based on that, add a reference to the correct Microsoft Outlook com object library programatically?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI've got a series of macros in place which, essentially, download several CSV files into a temp directory, then opens each and copies the data into a single workbook (one sheet).
What happens is that the some number of the sheets don't actually open until the macro stops. I've tried using the wait (Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("00:00:10")) and sleep functions, but it's not quite doing what I want.
What I'd LIKE to do is have the macro actually STOP processing for 10 seconds, then proceed (or start a new macro).
I've also tried putting the wait behind a button in a userform, which is non modal... the csv files open until the user clicks the button.
I have several buttons I and a chart I want to make invisible and visible
programatically. The buttons have names like Button65, etc. I did not
give them these names. Curiously, these buttons don't have properties when
I right click on them in design mode as do other objects. Why not?
Further, they act more like rectangles drawn from autoshapes in that I can
assign a macro to them, but unlike a rectange they are not named as
rectangles (e.g. rectangle 284). Why not? These are hybrid creatures!!
I like to use rectangles as command buttons, but then they do not have
properties which allow them to be made invisible, etc...
The chart name is Chart 1. Same problem, it has no properties. How can I
make it invisible?
When I have a macro open another file, it always activates the macros in it. Is there some way to disable the macros?

married, widows, single checkbox is selected
macro solution
good work.
I have 3 checkboxes; when one is checked, a set/range of rows should be visible. Only 1 checkbox should be checked at a time.
If checkbox 18 is already checked, and checkbox 20 is then checked, I want the first checkbox unchecked and the rows for checkbox hidden.
I'm using the following code. It works great as long as I check and uncheck the same box before attempting to check another box. But if Checkbox18 is already checked with its rows showing, and I then check checkbox20, the checkbox20 sub runs and as I step through, it jumps to sub checkbox18.
How can I stop my subs from jumping from one to another?
Code:
Private Sub CheckBox18_Click()
If CheckBox18.Value = True Then
Worksheets("TRF").Rows("36:41").Hidden = False
Worksheets("TRF").Rows("42:64").Hidden = True
Worksheets("TRF").Rows("65:76").Hidden = True
CheckBox19.Value = False
[Code] .........
How can i hide and unhide one checkbox using another one? Can it be done using IF formula?
And also i am using this checkbox to function something else as TRUE/FALSE.
I have been using different keywords to find what I need. I have 3 checkboxes: cash, amex, other. I have a subtotal cell. When the appropriate checkbox is checked, the amount from the subtotal cell will auto go to the cell next to the checkbox. Is this VB?
View 6 Replies View RelatedThis may have been answered on here but can not seem to find it. My situation is I have values in A1,A2 & A3 that are like counter reading so the value is always changing. What I am looking to do is change the cell color if one of the values is over 500 from the other two values. Say A1 is 3000, A2 is 3250 and A3 is 3500. I would like the cell for A3 to change color.

Is there a setting somewhere to prevent VBE from changing the current procedure window?
View 4 Replies View RelatedOn the attached Dynamic chart I have attached there are 3 checkboxes to display certain data. My issue is this, if I click the outside checkbox and the ISE checkbox at the same time that is OK, it gives me a comparison of the two data sets in a bar chart. Perfect. If I click just the total checkbox it gives me the total info of the outside and ISE, again perfect.
But, If I click all 3, it doubles all the numbers because total is total and outside + ISE also equals the total.
My Question,
-Is there a way to lock out a checkbox if another is active?
if 1 then no 2 or 3. if 2, 3 is OK but 1 is not. if 3 then 2 is ok but 1 is not?
-If it can't be locked can it do something like; If #1 has a check and you try to enter #2 a red error message could come up saying these two choices together the data will be inaccurate. I'm thinking this might be done in conditional formatting.
If option one is doable and easy, is it also possible to have an error message like in my second idea so people will know why they can't click that second box? This would be my preferred fix but I am open to any other option you may have to accomplish this.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have 20 check/tick boxes on my worksheet (CheckBox1-20), each of the 20 tickboxs has its own linked cell A1-A20 - I wish to have another checkbox (checkbox21) that, when ticked will tick all of them.
Also, if unticked it will untick the 20. I'd like this to be a kind of "onclick" command - so that if I wanted to tick 5 of the 20 on their own, the "master" tick box won't interfere with this. If a command button is easier to code than this is just as good.
I've been looking online on on here for the last 2 hours with no joy, not even getting close.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a RibbonX checkbox that I have added to my ribbon. I am able to attach code to the OnAction callback and when the user clicks the box, the code executes properly. Now for my issue. How can I change the checkbox from checked to unchecked and vice versa within VBA?
My situation is this:
I store a list of employees with certain elements such as start date, department, title, etc. in a table. One of the fields is Inactive which shows whether they are active or inactive. I may want to see all the employees, or just the active ones. My checkbox will allow the showing of both inactive and active employees. The user may wish to save the default setting for this and so I have created a table that holds a Boolean True or False for whether to show inactive employees or not by default. The checkbox always shows unchecked by default when the workbook loads, and I want to change the textbox's checked state based upon the value in the table.
I need to have a check box, that when it is checked the user must fill in a cell.

I can't find the name of any checkbox.
I have a sheet with a number of checkboxes, and I need to conditionally enable/disable some of them.
For example, if the user checks Box1, then the question for Box2 becomes relevant and Box2 becomes available. If Box1 is unchecked, Box2 needs to be unchecked and disabled.
Can it be made in VBA as follows:
I have made a userform with the initialize routine. On this there are checkboxes which I would like to be selected for a YES.
When the YES (checkbox) is being selected I than would like to see in the active userform an already made and "hidden" textbox to enter a value for confirmation of a quantity to order.
I have been loking for some sort of Private Sub Userform Change() routine, but can not find this type of routines
