Use a drop down menu (Combo box for example) to look at all the sheet names (these will be names of people, sheets added all the time) be able to select a name which when selected takes me to that sheet. So the amount of sheets will increase so everything will need to be dynamic.
I dont want to see all the list behind the drop down so that why i was thinking of a combo box.

I want to create a form and use VBA to make a combo box list all the sheets in a book. Is it possible to select multiple entries like in HTML? I would like the user to be able to select the sheets they do not want to delete before a macro runs.

I have an activeX combo-box that selects from different pieces of equipment that we supply. Based on that selection, I require ranges from the same page that the combo-box is on to either hide or unhide. Also, I require different tabs to become visible or hidden based on that same selection. So far so good - I have code that does this, and it appears to work without glitch.
Where the problem arises, is in one of the ranges that is unhidden when a particular piece of equipment is selected there is another combo-box that I would like to use (the number of said pieces of equipment to supply) to further hide/unhide additional ranges on the same page, and also hide/unhide certain tabs as well.
When I make a selection from combo-box 1, all works as planned, but when I change the state of combo-box 2, even with no associated coding referring to it, I cannot change combo-box 1 again without getting Error 1004 "Unable to get the Hidden property of the range class".
None of the sheets in the workbook are protected.
I would sincerely appreciate any help/code that could circumvent this error.

I would like to set up an Excel spreadsheet for conducting a time and motion study in a workplace setting where someone follows an employee around to document how much time is spent on a variety of activities. Since the person would have a mobile tablet PC to walk around with and track the data, I would like to capture 3 fields of information:
1) Category of function being performed
2) Start date/time of function
3) Stop date/time of function
For #1, I would like to have a drop down box that appears in each row of Column A with a predefined list (i.e. Activity A, Activity B, Activity C, etc.). For #2 and #3, I would like to create a macro that "timestamps" the current date/time when a blank cell is "clicked".

I have a userform which takes a large amount of sequential geographical data and builds a theoretical model of my layout whithin excel. However I would now like to incorperate an interactive aspect to this userform. I have written code which draws a line diagram whithin a seperate CAD app and imports it as a picture to the excel userform each time the user updates the data, but I would like to be able to select different areas whithin the data by clicking in the appropriate place on the picture in the form. I know this kind of interactivity is a bit beyond visual basics line of duty but my model MUST stay whithin the confines of excel thereforwe my front end must remain VBA for the time being.
My other option is to build up a diagram out of smaller components (boxes etc) whithin the userform. This would be entirely acceptable, however I'm not too sure if its possible to 'create' new pictures on the form from whithin the code.

I've managed to get the following macro working except for one small thing - the link to the folder where the spreadsheet (that will be attached to the email) resides (which I got to work fine in a macro to send out tasks) just ends up as plain text and is not clickable
Make this link clickable in the email so that when the recipient receives the email they can just click on the link and go straight to the relevant folder please? (I've highlighted the line with what I would like to work as a link in red)

I've found countless, very useful macros that do 1/3 of what i need. My needs:
1) A macro to look in a set network folder, and generate a list of Excel files, and display them (1 per row, just the file name if possible)
2) Each file name is a hyperlink to open that sheet
3) A macro to look at the file listed above, then list in the column B a value from a set cell. So it would ideally output:
1| RH0018.xls A1CellValue
2| RH0019.xls A1CellValue
3| RH0020.xls A1CellValue

I had someone look up a price on a website, for a list of part numbers, and copy the link to the website page into my spreadsheet.
Now I want to transfer the price and link to my main spreadsheet.
I know how to use VLookup to get the info to my main spreadsheet but when I transfer the link using VLookup it does not come as a hyperlink that I can click on and be sent to the webpage. It is just text.
How do I convert the links to a hyperlink that I can click on and be sent to the webpage?
I have 1200 records.

I have a file that contains detailed sales information for each sales person. It typically contains over 20k records and the managers find it difficult to look up their sales people.
Currently it is subtotaled for each sales person but there are about 450 sales people across the country and it's not easy to use.
I have seen other Excel files that use buttons and I am wondering if this might be the solution to this issue. In other words, can I create a button where the managers can just click it, key in their sales person's name and get at the records easier? If so, how does that work? How I could make this file more user friendly.

I have to create two combo boxes and when a user selects a value from one combo box, the values should get changed in the other combo box.
For example : if one combo box has values like "c/c++ programming" "java programming" and so on.. ... i would like to display the authors recommended (corresponding to combo box1) in the combo box 2.

I have used and adapted the following code for my sheet:
http://www.vbaexpress.com/kb/getarticle.php?kb_id=824
But this combo-box only appears when I change from and back to the first sheet. I would like to either let the combobox appear
-when I open the file or
-when I click anywhere in the first sheet (can be a specific cell, or not)
Another solution would be to "fix" the combobox to a specific cell, ie not make it pop up anymore but just have it there.

I am having a few problems trying to amend the code so that it only uses the text box and combo box below. Unfortunately I am having a few problems. I am new and have amended this spreadsheet / code from another user on this site.
When I delete the combo box on the right, using developer mode, a run time error occurs.

I've got a worksheet which uses comboboxes at certain points for users to input data. At other points in the sheet they are entering directly into cells.
I've got the sheet protected, with the input cells unlocked so that it is possible to jump to them using the tab key.
However, I can't seem to make the tab key jump to any of the comboboxes. Ideally I'd like to set the full order for the tab key so that it jumps between input cells and comboboxes at the required stage.

I am trying to set-up a database where a list of people are trained on different items of equipment.
Is there anyway of doing this example please?
John is selected from a drop down box.
If he is trained on certain equipment, the box will turn green automatically. If he is not, the box will be red.
I am assuming, I will have a separate sheet housing all the names and what areas they are trained in.

I have a problem where a combo box in a form won't populate from the VBA code in the initialise routine. I've tried a couple of difference methods for populating the combo box without success. The code I have is:
VB:
Option Explicit
Sub NewTender()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
[Code].....
I tried the excel file uploaded by Norie but it only displayed "Is". Are there any settings I need to modify to allow the add item property to work?

-To have the text alignment as centered; and
-Have a shading in it (as per the row)
I have attached a spreadsheet so you know what I mean.
For instance the row in which the combo exists, is shaded blue, is there a way to make the box the same shading too?

I have 8 combo boxes on Sheet 1, which must contain the info from Sheet 2.
The "Group" Combo boxes should contain the letter of the group (A, B, C or D - the information should be used from the D2:D5 cells from Sheet 2).
I want when user clicks on the Group Combo box (the one on the "1st Grade" row for example), and select some group (for example A), in the left combo box (which at first says "Choose Group ..."), all the names of studenst from 1st Grade and A group to be displayed.
