Combo List Refer To Any Cell In The Worksheet

Mar 4, 2009

I need a list in my form, simple "Name/Number" list (only two options) but i don't want it to refer to any cell in the worksheet.
I want to input a text in a textbox and with the selection in the list above i want to have multiple choices at how to approach the text (if i input a name i want it to be different than if i input a number). All the info i came up on the web refers to lists made upon a range of cells.
How can i make a list without involving ranges of cells?

Use Cell Data To Refer Worksheet In Closed Workbook

Jan 29, 2010

At the moment, I have a project where everyone is putting work data on seperate workbooks. Each months work is placed onto another worksheet within that workbook.

The supervisor has his own workbook, that grabs data from each of the workers books. Getting the data is easy enough, however because the supervisor has barely any knowledge of computers, I would like to make it as easy to set up for future months.

Right now, data is collected in each cell using the following formula:-

='[otherusersworkbook.xls]December 2009'!$C$620

Is there a way of getting that phrase to substitute the part that says "December 2009" with whatever is put into column A on the same row?

Pick From List Or Combo Box And Return Definition In Cell To The Right..

Jan 18, 2009

In my attachment, I have a worksheet where I need to pick a rating from a combo box or list (Expert, Leading, Applying, Learning, Under Performing). I will be picking this rating 10 different times on this worksheet and the selections will not be the same in all cases so the definition I need won't always be the same.

I would like to return the definition (definitions are detailed on another worksheet, Data Elements) to the cell to the right.

I've tried IF statements but when I make one selection from the combo box, all the combo boxes select the same thing. I've also tried vlookup but can't figure it out and can't find an explanation in layman's terms.

Refer To Cells & Only List Duplicates Once

Jun 2, 2007

I am making an excel document that has a log of repeating data, one column of which includes names. At the bottom of the document, I am trying to make a small box that tallies all of the people within the document and the number of times they placed an order. What is the formula for when you want excel to find a word within the document? Right now I am using =CELL("CONTENTS",C6) etc. So all that does is repeat the word when it is used. But it duplicates the word in the box down below because it appears in the log numerous times.

2000: How To Refer To Worksheet In The Same Book

Nov 12, 2005

I have twelve sheets in the book called "Jan", "Feb" to "Dec". Now I will use value in the two sheets by this format:

Row1 will contain columns, "jan", "feb", and etc.

Row2 should be like "=JAN!b2", "=FEB!b2", etc till "=Dec!b2".

Now the question is, how can I use reference, but not directly put in the sheetname such as "Jan!b2"?

In another word, what I want to use is like "=Worksheets(cells(...))!b2".

Variable To Refer To A Worksheet.CodeName

Jan 22, 2009

This is a simplified version of an earlier, long winded post that clouded my actual question.
Can I use a variable to refer to a worksheet by its CodeName? For example, let's assume I have several worksheets, with CodeNames of mySheet1, mySheet2, mySheet3, and so on. I understand that I can refer to them directly,

mySheet1.Range(myRangeName).value = someValue
mySheet2.Range(myRangeName).value = someValue
mySheet3.Range(myRangeName).value = someValue
.
but what if I want to do this using a loop? Is it possible to preload an array of CodeNames and do it that way? I'm thinking along the lines of something like...

Dim CodeNames
CodeNames = Array( mySheet1, mySheet2, mySheet3 ...)

For x = 1 to HoweverMany
CodeNames(x).Range(myRangeName).value = someValue
Next x

Named Range. Refer To Current WorkSheet

Jan 2, 2008

I put all my named ranges in a seperate worksheet in the workbook.

On a different sheet I have all my data with references to the named ranges. But what it gives me is the cell information from the sheet on which the named range is located and not on the worksheet where I actually need the calculations to be done.

How can I make the named range refer to the cells in the worksheet in which it sits?

Worksheet 1
---------------
1
2
3
4

Worksheet 2
--------------
I name the function Red apples
RedApples =CONCATENATE($A1&"Red Apples")

Worksheet 3
--------------
=RedApples
=RedApples
=RedApples

Question #1
How do I make the name reference in worksheet 2 refer to
the cells located in the worksheet in which i use it. In other words, when I use RedApples in Worksheet 3, it gives me what is sitting in A1 in worksheet 2 instead of in A1 on Worksheet 1.

Question #2
How do I make the name reference in Worksheet 3 keep stepping down along Column A in Worksheet 1?

Formula at issue in actuality is

=IF($S5>0.149,Morethan15,IF(AND($S5<0.15,$S5>0.999 ),Morethan10,IF(AND($S5<0.999,$S5>0.0499),Morethan 5,IF(AND($S5<0.05,$S5>0),Morethan0,IF($S5<0,Lessth an0)))))

the morethan15,10,5,0 and lessthan0 is defined in the last worksheet

Combo Box On Protected Worksheet

When I try to protect the workbook the combo boxes become locked, even when I have done FORMAT CONTROL / PROTECTION and unticked the LOCKED box. Is this normal?. I also have data validation cells and they work fine if I unlock them and Protect the workbook. As a result, I am thinking of converting the combo boxes to data validation cells, but should I even need to do this

Activate A Macro From Combo Box / List Box

I'm trying to figure out how to activate a macro from combo box or list box.
But no success.

I have a list of names:
AAA
BBB
CCC
111

That I can view through the combo box.

I have created a list of macros, that carry the same names,

AAA
BBB
CCC
111

The Q is: how can I link each name to its own macro?
so when chosen, will activate the macro?

Combo & List Box To Set Calendar Quarter

Aug 7, 2007

I need to define a specific calendar quarter and year, and want to do so using a combo box for the quarter (e.g. 1st Quarter, 2nd Quarter, 3rd Quarter, 4th Quarter) and a list box for the year (so the user can select any year desired).

The selections in each item should then somehow define the quarter's date range so I can use it in my SUMPRODUCT calculations.

Example:

User selects '1st Quarter' from the Combo Box
User selects '2004' from the List Box

CurrentQuarter range is somehow defined to equal 1/1/04 through 3/31/04.

If this isn't possible, then perhaps two ranges can be defined based on the user's selections:

QtrStart is set to 1/1/04
QtrEnd is set to 3/31/04

Empty Values In Combo Box List

Oct 31, 2009

I have a combo box, from the control toolbar, that I have populated with a named range in the properties of the combo box. The items in the named range vary when an earlier combo box is selected. There are always at least 2 values populated in the named range, but can be as many as 22 values. What happens is when there are only 2 items in that range, the drop down list from the combo box shows 20 blank lines! I have been searching for how to "ignore empty cells" in this range, but cannot find it. The empty cells are always before and/or after the populated cells, if that helps. The range is updated via VBA, not formulas, if that is helpful as well.

Filling A Combo Box With Data From A Worksheet

Nov 21, 2006

I'm attempting to make a simple userform that inputs data onto an existing worksheet. I have the userform but would like to use a combo box to choose a "category" item of data, however I dont know what the categories are! I would like the combo box to, somehow, look at the spreadsheet and read off the already entered categories and offer those as choices.

A picture is worth a thousand words:

Is there a simple way to fill the combo box (using the form initialize I assume) with the existing categories?

Hide Combo Boxes (dropdown List)?

Nov 14, 2008

I trying to do a sheet with one combo box (dropdown list) where I want the user to be able to choose "add rows" to make more boxes appear. My idea to solve this was to put all the boxes in the sheet, and then create a macro that either hides or shows the rows with the extra boxes. Now I have a problem that hiding the rows just does that, and only that. The rows disappear, but the combo boxes stay visible (but ends up on top of eachother).

Transpose Named Range For Combo Box List

May 29, 2006

I have been trying to make a combobox for which the list is a named range. However, this range needs to be transposed. ListFillRange doesn't seem to let me transpose the list first. I've tried transposing the list somewhere else first and then adding it, but it seems to want a range as opposed to a reference to a range. I'm so confused now. This is the basic code that I wish would work.

ActiveSheet. OLEObjects.Add(ClassType:="Forms.ComboBox.1", Link:=False, _
DisplayAsIcon:=False, Left:=253, Top:=472, Width:=117, Height:=20). _
Select
Selection.ListFillRange = "=transpose(Stream_Data!StreamList)"

While I'm at it, could someone explain to be how to refer to a combobox. ie. when you create it, you don't name it so how can you refer to it. That's why I have used the selection tool above to add the list.
