I want to create a command button that will clear whatever is written in a text box. I guess for this to work it needs to select all, then clear. The command button and the text box have been created using the control toolbox.
View 2 RepliesI have created a command button, right clicked the button and selected 'View Code'. In the code window I've entered the following code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
IB_FB_Hedge_3 Outcome.range(W10:X11).ClearContents
End Sub
As soon as I enter the code a message pops up:
"Compile error:
Expected: list separator or )"
Is my syntax wrong? Is the sheet name, 'IB_FB_Hedge_3 Outcome' not allowed?
When I created this code a few minutes before I was not having the 'Compile error' problem, but the Command Button was not working either. When I clicked the command button it would just show the circles at the corners, suggesting that it is still in editing mode and not properly activated as a command button.
I am trying to create a command button in Microsoft Excel (Office 2000) that enables me to reset the check box status for a worksheet from checked to unchecked. The worksheet contains approximately 50 check boxes and is meant to be reused. Is this possible? If so, how can I program it to do so?

e.g the button sitting in column A is called "A". when i click the button, it returns it's name to a variable which I can then use to sort column A. I know I could create a seperate routine for each button but I was just trying to think of something neater.
I have a userform with a button on it named But1. Is it possible to store But1 into a variable then activate the But1_Click action using a variable?
Dim strButname As String
strButname ="But1"
Now, how would you activate the But1_Click method using strButname variable. With listboxes you can use the Control(strListboxName) methodology?
This doesn't work, but gives you an idea of what I am trying to do.
Controls(strButname)_click
I currently am using a form button to create new rows.
I need two different kind of buttons. I have a button that does this-
VB:
Sub InsertRow()
'this inserts a row where the button is clicked.
Dim r As Range
[Code]....
However, when I try and create these codes using a Command button (I need it for the color), I get the error
"unable to get the buttons property of the Worksheet class"
P.S one other thing, say the button is in row 3, and Cells A1 and A2 are merged, when you click the button in row 3, it should extend the merge to A3.
i want to create a save button in sheet 1, on clicking the same the data entered in the particluar cells of sheet 1 should get saved in sheet 2 in given format

I have read several articles saying using a command button as a toggle button can't be done but some articles have said it is possible using the state properties.
.State = msobuttondown
.State = msobuttonup
Is there any way to combine this with the onaction property so that when you press the button, it stays down and activates a macro then when you press it again it pops back up and activates another macro.
I have a worksheet from which I regularly clear all contents by selecting all the rows and selecting 'Clear Contents' from the right button menu. However, I now have added a formula in Col Y that I want to protect. I know I could select all columns up thru X, but that would clear the R1 headers, so I want to avoid doing that. I can always work around, but I'm curious, is there a way to clear only values and thus protect the formulas when using the Clear Contents command?
In ThisWorkbook Userform2 is triggered upon a double click
Private Sub Workbook_SheetBeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
UserForm2.Show
End Sub
Userform2 has Frame1 (Option Buttons 1-6) and Frame2 (Option Buttons 7-12)
Private Sub OptionButton1_Click()
Call ProjectBuildings
Range("A1").Select
End Sub
Private Sub OptionButton10_Click()
Call BondIndustrial
Range("A1").Select
End Sub
The user can click away and things work great. The macros that are triggered search a number of Workbooks and individual Worksheets looking to select either of two (hence the two Frames) specific items.
If the user clicks any Option Button in Frame 1 (works) then any Option Button in Frame 2 (works) then goes back to the same Option Button in Frame 1 (nothing) I have a problem.
How do I clear the first Option Button in Frame 1 after the user selects another Option Button in Frame 2?
I have a CLEAR FORM command button
What codes can I use so that when I click CLEAR FORM, all the data that I encoded in the textboxes of my current userform will be erased as if I have a fresh new form?
I'm just finishing a project that is a collection of three calculators, each of which returns data based on a series of user-supplied variables. All the mechanics are working [thanks in part to replies to previous posts], but there is one more thing I'd like to add:
Does anyone have a way to clear the contents of another cell [actually several] cells via another cell? As the most complex calculator requires eight variables to be entered, I'd like to provide a quick way [a button?] to "clear" or "reset" the calculator - basically wipe all unlocked cells. I should note that all of the cells in question already have Data Validation of one type or another.
My Workbook with a macro to clear ONLY the highlighted Cells.
The Highlighted Cells can be found on the sheet "Line 5"
I'm putting together a time sheet that can used to calculate total hours worked by department etc. I plan on protecting the worksheet and only allowing certain cells to be selected and data entered.
Is there a way using VBA to place a button on the first spreadsheet that will clear all cells that are 'unlocked'?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI keep encountering an error while creating multiple sheets within the same workbook. This is a known error by Microsoft as documented here. In order to avoid using multiple workbooks i need to clear excels cache each time I run the macro as i have limited users sheet creation to 30 sheets which should not trigger the error. Does any one know a code to clear excels cache or memory?
I have used cutcopymode = false but that does not do the trick.
I have a button on my userform that I would like to clear all entries in column B in a sheet called "6 Entries" when pressed
Is there a code for this ?
I have seen this before in spreadsheets so I atleast know it is possible.
I have a worksheet that has 6 sheets in it. The final sheet is a formula page that only shows results if sheets 2-5 have data. Sheet 1 holds all the master data. Sheets 2-5 show subsets based on sheet 1. I manually atm filter sheet 1 for certain info and then copy paste into 2-5.
Seeing as I do this weekly. How would I go about adding in a 7th tab or even a macro that will delete all data from row3-end in tabs 2-5, then copy the appropriate data from tab 1 based on a set criteria?
I could write this in a macro just wondering if there is an easy built in way?
Function FindNth(Table As Range, Val1 As Variant,Val1Occrnce As Integer, _
Val2 As Variant,Val2Col As Integer, ResultCol As Integer)
Dim i As Integer
Dim iCount As Integer
Dim rCol As Range
For i = 1 To Table.Rows.Count
If Table.Cells(i, 1) = Val1 And _
Table.Cells(i, Val2Col) = Val2 Then
iCount = iCount + 1
End If
If iCount = Val1Occrnce Then
FindNth = Table.Cells(i, ResultCol)
Exit For
End If
Next i
End Function
To use this function, push Alt+F11 and go to Insert>Module. Paste in the code, push Alt+Q and save. Use the function as shown in graphic example. You can access it under "User Defined" in the Paste Function (Shift+F3).

I have searched this topic but I came up with nothing regarding my exact situation.
I have 5 buttons on sheet 1. I want them to all direct me to another sheet in the same workbook. However, some buttons will contain more than one sheet.
Example: Button 1 will direct me to 4 different sheets. Is this possible?
Also, When I open the workbook, I see many sheets that I am working from but I do not want them to show up when I open the workbook. The only way to see these sheets is to click on the command buttons at the top of sheet 1.
When I press a command button I want to:
Uncheck a checkbox made with Control Toolbox
Check a particular Option Button within a group box made with the Forms Toolbar.
EDIT: Clarification, I want both things to happen when I click one button.
Is it possible to check multiple checkboxes with a command button?
For example, I have 20 checkboxes (C5 to C25) when command button is clicked
C5, C12, C17, C20 would be checked.
how to keep a command button in a certain location even if the a row or Column is Deleted or Inserted into the worksheet?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI know that this may seem a little strange to request as you can just select the row and delete it, however the sheet is designed as "idiot proof", so I would like to implement this.
Basically, I have a box which states "If you need to delete a row due to incorrect entry, please type the row number here (next cell), and click delete".
I want to know if by using VBA, you can reference the number entered in the cell, and use this to determin the row in which we are required to delete.
I have a 2 worksheets. One "Projects in Process"and the other "Project Completed". when the users fill in the information in cells A4-F4 (line 4 is the starting line and it could go down as far as line 23 or a23 - f23) In Projects in Process they press a "completed Project" command button and the data in a4-f4 copies over to worksheet "Projects completed". In the next available row (starting at row 4).
View 13 Replies View RelatedI am running Excel 2003 and in my workbook I created a macro and assigned it to a toolbar comman button, "Copy Filtered Data". This macro copies the visible data into a new workbook.
This works well but others in my company will also be accessing this workbook from a sharepoint and I discovered that when they open it this command button is not on their toolbar.
Would anyone know what I need to do to have this button load on the toolbar when the workbook opens?
Also, I would like this button to either unload or greyout when the workbook that this button is intended for is closed.
I have created a userform with text boxes and a list box. I have a few questions. First for the list box. I got the information for my list box through the list box example sheet2!A1:A1000. Is there any easier way ? Next I would like to create a New Command button to create a new record. I decided to just do a clear all textboxes, option buttons ect.. to clear, is there an easier way ? I seem to be looping sort of way when I get to txtissue.Value = "" it than goes to txtIssue_Change()
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet that automatically analyzes the last week's worth of data and then displays a table of summary data from that analysis in the range C2:G11. Each row (i.e. 2:11) represents the statistics from one of the 10 regions in the state. I then have a second "details" table which remains blank (it occupies the range C14:G20; one row for each day of the week) until an "x" is typed in Column H in the cell adjacent to a region's summary data above, e.g.
if I want to display detailed data for region 4 for the last week, I would type an "x" in cell H5; formulas in the blank "details" table then lookup information on region 4 from a larger dataset. This system works fine, but is a little clumsy (typing "x"'s and deleting previous "x"'s, etc.).
Here's what I would like:
1): A macro for this sheet that will place an "x" in the ActiveCell (only in the case that the active cell is somewhere in the range H2:H11), will remove that "x" when that cell is no longer active, and will not place more than one "x" at a time-- for instance if more than one cell is accidentally highlighted
2): Also, I would like to be able to paste the values and formatting of the "details" table (C14:G20) to a separate sheet (we'll call it Sheet2) if they're interesting, and I'd like to be able to do this with a command button. The problem is I don't know... 1: how to place a button on the sheet, 2: how to attach code to this button, 3: where to place this code (can it go in the same place as the ActiveCell macro I described earlier?).
Ideally, the code would allow me to paste an arbitrary number of these tables to Sheet2, so the code would need to be able to identify the first blank cell in Column A as the location to paste a new table when the button is clicked.
