I've got a database and want to put the names that are in one culumn of the Worksheet into a combobox.
I use a Loop and the addItem procedure.
The thing is that there are many names that are the same, just diferent records for the same company...
How do i do that every name only appears once in the ComboBox.
In my excel sheet, from B2 to B20 i have datas like,
aaa
bbb
ccc
aaa
ccc
ddd
rrr
ttt
bbb
rrr
ttt
I want to add this to my combobox1 with out repeation as, 'aaa' should be listed in combobox once. What is the macro for this or we can do it in Combobox properties itself?
I need to add items to a combobox without adding duplicates or empty data. I am able to add without empty data but how to ignore the duplicates.
Here is what I have...
Code:
Dim GL As Range
Dim ws1 As Worksheet
Set ws1 = Worksheets("Main")
For Each GL In ws1.Range("MainGL")
If IsEmpty(GL) Then
'do nothing
Else
ComboBox2.AddItem GL.Value
End If
Next GL
How do I add the column heads (e.g. A1, B1, C1....) as items to a combobox or listbox if they are not empty?

The code below scans from the column on the row of the worksheet till it finds a blank, this seems to work ok as I previously had a msgbox in that displayed the value of n once the loop finished
So I was hoping that the values in the columns on that row would be added to the combobox but for some reason I get a typing missmatch error.
Code:
Dim n As Integer
n = 1
Do While LValue6 "" 'find out how many alternatives there are
LValue6 = FoundISBN.Offset(0, 32 + n).Value
n = n + 1
DataInput.ComboBox1(n) = LValue6 - I was hoping that the value in the cell was added to the combobox

I have a list box in the userform. I would like to add items into ListBox which correspondent with 4 combo box values. If all combo boxes is selected, that would be easy task. However, user might not need to select all combo boxes. If any of the combo boxes empty, my code fails that end up listbox is empty. I could write the code with all of the combinations, but that will be my last choice if there is nothing easier than that. Can I adjust the code such as if the combo box="" then skip then look at the other combo box if that is "" than skip again. If all combos are "" add all the items from the source.
My code is below:
AllStaffLB is listbox
StaffSrchCB is combo box
StaffSrchCB2 is combo box

Am trying to get dynamic population of 2nd combobox based on match from criteria in combobox 1.
if column a = bears and column b = colours of bears then
when I select bears in combobox one, combobox 2 would populate with colors of bear.
I am think of having a combobox 1 change event that evaluates each row in a specific range (does it match the criteria?) if so, then add 2nd cell (column b) of that row to the combobox 2.
I know it would probably involve match and offset, add item and loop, but I am not sure what the syntax is.
I have a list of items and I would like to print each of their details without having to select each of them from the combo box and then press the print button for each of them...
Is there a way to do this automatically ?
I have a combo box (from the Control Toolbox toolbar). I like this to be populated with the contents of column A. however, in column A there can be duplicates. I obviously don't wan't any duplicates in the combobox.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet in which i have a set of data similar to the following (i have used colons as delimiters in this example).........
Basically what i want is 2 combo boxes. The first combo bow will allow you to select the phone type (e.g. Motorola PEBL, Motorola RAZR etc etc). The second combo box will have a list of items which match up to the value selected in the first combo box. Once the item has been selected from the 2nd combo box then the relevant matching data will be shown in a group of cells on the worksheet on which the combo boxes reside.
I know that this could be done by using the data validation feature if my data were laid out in a different way however it is not possible for me to re-lay out all the data in my worksheet. I have been told that there my problem copuld be potentially solved by using Excel VB but unfortanately my VB skills are quite weak.
This should be very easy, but I am not getting it to work. I have a userform with a combo box and I just want to hard code the values to it in VBA. I want the value in the combo box to be 1 - 10. Here is what I have so far.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to add comboboxes to a userform on the fly.
For example there are twenty different categories. I want the user to be able to say he wants 2 of these categories and 2 combo boxes pop up (each combobox has a list of the 20 categories). Then next to the categories, text boxes to type the quantity of each category.
i need to be able to fill a combo box on a userform with the data on sheet1 and when you select the item from the combobox it will populate the textbox below.
View 5 Replies View RelatedThe below code shows the way I add items to 10 different comboboxes. However, the items to be added are actual the same.
Is there a way I can simiply it? I am worry that by the end of day, i might have up to 50-60 comboboxes and the code will be a relativity long and not efficient.
Taking into consideration the the comboboxes will be labelled as Jieyi_task_ComboBox1...to 10
jane_task_ComboBox1...to 10
Kenny_task_ComboBox1.. to 10
I want to know the procedure of adding and deleting the items to a combobox or list box dynamically.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI have a significant number of comboboxes on a multipage userform. Almost all of them are populated dynamically (it takes the user choice from one combobox, looks for that value on the spreadsheet and if it finds it, it takes whats in the next column and adds it to another combobox).
My problem is that all the items in these other comboboxes are not in alphabetical order. I'd like to find some code that will work for all my comboboxes so that I don't have to have the same code over and over again for each field.
I found the code below and that works to alphabetize the dropdown, but I still have to use it over and over again and change it for each fieldname (in red). I tried to use a variant and just make the value the same as each fieldname before it calls the sub and whats in red below was just my variable but that just crashes my excel.

I want the items that appear in B9:B5000, automaticaly in Combobox_Category. How can I do this, so that every item stays unique.
example B9 = fat cow and B10= fat cow, fat cow will only appear 1 time in the combobox lista and not twice, how can I organise the combobox list Alphab?
I am trying to run macros for each item in combobox. These macros will insert text in a cell. The problem is that when i make a selection from combobox, save the file and reopen the file, it again runs the macro based on the value in combobox. I am getting the results twice in a cell.

I have an workbook with two worksheets: sheet1 and sheet2. In first sheet I have an combobox (with data from sheet2, range A2:end xldown). In second sheet I have:
column A: item
column B: item with range
column C: range
I need to select one item from combobox (for example 3) and after that to select a cell (for example D3).
In sheet2, column A, I need item 3 to be deleted.
In sheet2, column B, I need item 3 to be added.
In sheet2, column C, I need the selected cell (D3) to be added and so on for all the items!
method of looping through objects to make changes.
I have 12 comboboxes on a userform which I have set to dropdown list and want to populate during the userform initialization. Each combobox is called "pt*" where * is a number from 1 - 12. I have currently set up my code with 12 lines, one for each combobox to apply the same dropdown list to each of the 12 boxes.
ie
Code:
pt1.rowsource = ptsource
(where ptsource contains a range reference on the worksheet)
I'm interested to learn how to improve my code to loop through 1-12 and apply the rowsource to each combobox.
I did search through some past questions but could only come up with a method which seemed to step through every combobox on a worksheet rather than userform and in my case, I have two other comboboxes on the userform which I do not want to add this rowsource to, only the "pt*" named comboboxes.
I have a database of data that looks like this
Centre Name Training Type Expert 1 Expert 2 Expert 3 Expert 4
MyCentre MyTraining Me
MyCentre MyTraining Me
MyCentre MyTraining Me
MyCentre OtherTraining Me
NewCentre NewTraining NewPerson
I am trying to create a user form (in VBA) with a combo box that has each centre name appear only once (despite the fact that in the database each occurs multiple times). When a specific centre is selected, this brings up all the different training types associated with that centre in a separate list box. When that training type is selected, it should bring up all of the experts in that training type (for the specific centre). I should mention that the range is static (though the data is always contiguous) as the database is updated on a going forward basis.
Populate Adv Filter Criteria from Inputbox with valid data
I've set up a macro to extract 3 different sets of data using Advanced Filter (same data range, different criteria & extract ranges)
There are multiple options (different individual dates) to satisfy the criteria (a date) for each of the 3 extracts and I want the user to select the criteria (a specific date) from the range of unique values in the data range upon which the Advanced Filter criteria is going to be applied. (A bit like the effect provided by Autofilter)
My initial attempt was to capture the criteria date from the user and populate a cell, and then have a vlookup function in another cell check if that crieteria value exists in the specified range. I then ran a loop in the VBA code until the value is valid (ie. exists in the range). However, to streamline this I was hoping to allow the user to see a list of the valid (available) dates when they respond to my Inputbox request for the criteria.
My question is if it's possible to change the code and make it work faster. When I change the ComboBox I wait about 1-3 seconds for about 40 items in the Worksheet. I still didn't test it with more items. Here's the
Private Sub ComboBox1P2_Change()
If ComboBox1P2.ListIndex = 0 Then
ComboBox2P2.Style = fmStyleDropDownCombo
ComboBox2P2.Value = sign
ComboBox2P2.Enabled = False
ComboBox3P2.Clear
ComboBox3P2.Enabled = False
ComboBox1P2.SetFocus
ElseIf ComboBox1P2.ListIndex 0 And ComboBox1P2.ListIndex -1 Then
ComboBox2P2.Style = fmStyleDropDownList
ComboBox2P2.Enabled = True...........
I have a Combobox with it's 'RowSource' set to two columns x 1500 rows on a spreadsheet. The Combobox is set to 'fmMatchEntryComplete'. When the user types in invalid text I get an "Invalid Value Property" error. I would like to validate the Combobox so that the user cannot type text other than available in the list, or not allow for the focus to be taken away away unless the item is a match to the list. At present due to the interaction of other controls on the userform, the only way to clear the error is by pressing the 'Escape key'. I have a button designed to reset the 'RowSource' of the Combobox but even after adding a 'MouseMove' event to this button with code
Application.SendKeys "{ESC}"
The code for sorting a multi-column listbox in Retain Selection After Sorting ListBox was really good, and I've used it a lot in an application I'm building.
What I'm hoping to do is reload a listbox in such a way that the items appear in the same order they were previously in. I'll describe two scenarios:
1. User edits a record
- user sorts listbox
- user selects a record
- user edits record
- listbox reloads, unsorted
2. User adds a record
- user sorts a listbox and sees a record is missing
- user adds the missing record
- listbox reloads, unsorted
ideally the last step for each would be "listbox reloads, sorted" and the user would go on down the list. the tricky part i think is when rows are deleted or added.
i'm starting on a solution, but if there's some existing code that will do this i'd appreciate if someone could point me to it (because, for example, the listbox sorting code i referred to above anticipated things i did not).
I have the following code used to add items of expired IDs in a listBox,, it actually works well for adding the ID type, but it doesn't add the details of the expired ID completely .. It adds only the details of the last expired ID (I think the code overwrites the details)
I hope that my problem is clear for all,
Can you please find me a solution for that?
I built a form with a listbox that is populated from a list of products on a worksheet. I want the user to be able to type in a product and if it doesn't match the products already listed I want it to add it to the worksheet list of available products. I keep thinking that I should form an if statement within a loop but whatever I try doesn't work.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two large spreadsheets that are arrays. Column A contains 40 items in both files. Columns B through X contain unique names. The arrays are filled with dollar amounts. Is there some formula or function in Excel whereby I can easily combine both spreadsheets, essentially adding the dollar amounts for each corresponding cell?
View 9 Replies View Relatedi had a user form with a Combo box,list box,text box and a command button. I need the code that works upon selecting:
1)An Item from the combo box should display the list in the list box.
eg: If Country is selected from the combobox then the list box should contain all the names of the countries from the country Column
2)An item should be added to the list in the worksheet when an item is entered in the textbox.
Like wise, when an item is selected from the combobox from "Delete Items List" all the items relating to the item selected from the combobox should be displayed in the list box and a choice to delete the items relating to the combobox item should be provided.
