Control Combobox Output (Drop Down List)

Jul 27, 2006

1.
I have a userform with a combobox that displays unique values from column A of the worksheet. I have a number of fields for each record going from columns A to J and A1:J1 is headings.

When user selects any particular record from the drop down list, it displays all the related fields on the labels on userform.

The column J is not initially completed for every record. But users put their feedback in column J (which done via userform) as they go. This does not happen in any particular order.

I am wondering if I can make the combobox pickup entries with no values in their column J.....in other words, can the combobox ONLY display the records that havent got user feedbacks in front of them in column J ?

So once a record has recieved a feedback in column J, its not seen again in the combobox.....to avoid doubling up on feedbacks.

2.
Also, what code would I use to select the row source for the combobox?
As the number of entries in the worksheet are growing the combobox rowsource range needs to grow automatically.

My worksheet is called "ComplaintData" which hidden, Combobox is called "complaintdis" and it needs to display values from column A in the dropdownlist.

Create Output List From Combobox

Jul 27, 2008

The following VBA code creates a list of selected listbox values when used in conjunction with a command button:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

Dim lngLastRow As Long
Dim lngCol As Long
Dim lngIndex As Long

lngLastRow = Range("K" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1
lngCol = 11
For lngIndex = 0 To ListBox2.ListCount - 1
If ListBox2.Selected(lngIndex) Then
Cells(lngLastRow, lngCol) = ListBox2.List(lngIndex)
lngCol = lngCol + 1
End If
Next

End Sub

This works fine for the listbox, however, for my application, I am using a combobox instead of a listbox. When I create a combobox and substitute ComboBox1 in for ListBox2 and run the code, I receive an error message.

Change Combobox Drop Down List

Feb 13, 2008

I inherited a spreadsheet with a combox box, drop down list for user to select a project by name. The cell right below uses a lookup function to select the code listed with that project name from a list on a separate worksheet. When I edit the codes on the list used as the source for the lookup, the new code will appear as it should.

I want to edit the drop down list that appears in the combobox. I cannot find the source for the drop down list. Any ideas where/how to look for it?

Control Toolbox ComboBox To Return Chosen List Number

Aug 18, 2006

I'm using combo boxes. Initially I used combo boxes from the Forms toolbar, however the text in the combo box was to small. Now I'm using combo boxes from the Control tool bar. However, i would like the link cell to show the number of the entry in the list (like the forms control box) and not the actual entry. Is there an option I need to select in properties, or is there some VB code I can attach to the combo box ?

Drop Down List Which Returns Values Based On What Has Been Selected In The Previous Drop Down List In The Adjacent Cell

Mar 19, 2009

I'm trying to create a drop down list which returns values based on what has been selected in the previous drop down list in the adjacent cell, e.g. if 'Apples' is selected in the previous cell then you should only be able to select from 'Gala, Granny Smith', or if 'Oranges' is selected you should only be able to select 'Seville, Blood Orange'. Is there a formula which would do this, or can I use a pivot table somehow? I'm totally stumped.

Drop Down List Which Displays A Different Set Of Values Depending Upon The Value Selected By A Previous Drop Down List

Oct 26, 2009

I need to have a drop down list which displays a different set of values depending upon the value selected by a previous drop down list. ie. (drop down box 1)= x, y, z. (drop down box 2)= either x1, x2, x3, or y1, y2, y3, or z1, z2, z3. I can produce a single drop down box thats not a problem but linking several drop down boxes is beyond me .

ComboBox Output Set In Date Format

Aug 10, 2006

I'm creating a workbook with the ultimate aim of graphing some data between any two dates. For this I plan to use the ComboBoxes on the Control Toolbox. Each ComboBox takes its range of data from a list of dates, with the cells set as Date format (custom as dd-mmm-yy), however when I select a date in the dropdown of the ComboBox, it is shown in number format, i.e. 38723 etc.

When I ask the ComboBox to put the output in another cell, it is input in text format as that number. Changing the output cell type does work, but once you select a new date in the dropdown, it reverts to text once again. how to set the ComboBox to display dd-mmm-yy format and it's output to be the same?

Have Output Cell Of ActiveX Combobox Link To Named Range?

Apr 22, 2013

=AVERAGEIFS(MFI,DATE,">="&JanStart,DATE,"<="&JanEnd)

MFI is the named ranged that is referencing a column of data. This works, but I want to be able to change the MFI to a different named ranged.

So what I am trying to do is using an ActiveX Combo box so I can reference the named ranges that I have set, for example MFI, so each time a user chooses MFI or another named range, it will output to a linked cell (A1). Then the linked cell will be referenced into this forumla.

=AVERAGEIFS(A1,DATE,">="&JanStart,DATE,"<="&JanEnd)

Is it possible for A1 to be linked to the named range, so if the user choses MFI in the combo box, it will change all AverageIFS formulas to look at a different named range.

Clear Forms Control ComboBox

Sep 25, 2009

I have a combobox from the Forms Toolbox inserted in a worksheet and have a macro assigned to run when the user selects a value. After the value is selected in the combobox I'd like the combobox to clear itself (show a blank). Currently the selected value stays highlighted in the combobox after the selection is made. I know how to do this with a Controls combobox, but cannot figure out how to use it with a Forms combobox. (The reason I am not using the controls cb is because there seems to be an Excel2007 bug that causes the properties of the displayed text to randomly change when the control is activated. When a selection is made in the controls cb, the text displayed in the cb turns bold, and either grows or shrinks in size to the point that it is unreadable. Same thing seems to happen with all other ActiveX controls...)
Sample attached.

Add Unique Items To ComboBox Control

Aug 30, 2006

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.

Return Chosen Value From ComboBox Control

Oct 25, 2006

I am trying to find a formula that references a cell on a spreadsheet (H7) which is really a Combo Box that is located on a range of cells K25:K30. I want to put a formula in H18, but of course, the combo box always references the range on K. i have tried the $K$25:K430, but i don't know what i am doing. The drop down menu and everything works fine, but the data IS stored elsewhere. HOW do i tell Excel to look at K25:K30,(depending on choice within combo) and then ad H8:H19? I have looked, but all answers are for forms. I am doing this for final exercise for a university course, and (hmmhmm) must folllow obtuse instructions.

Replacing Forms Control Combobox With ActiveX

Aug 13, 2014

Since Form Controls comboboxes don't allow font editing, I need to switch to ActiveX...

The combo box values come from the following cell range:

tbl_arrays!$I$3:$I$6

Those values are, from top to bottom: "select distance", "50 Miles", "100 Miles", "150 Miles".

The following macro is also assigned to the combobox:

[Code].....

I have two issues. The first is that the macro doesn't seem to be working. It is supposed to filter a list of cities within 50, 100 and 150 miles of a user input zip or city. The original Forms Control combo works but not ActiveX after I put the code in the change event:

[Code] .........

The second issue is that the last clicked value in the ActiveX comboBox replaces the top one.

Ex: from top to bottom, the combobox should display:

[Code] ........

but if the user clicks "100 Miles", the combobox is then going to display

[Code] ......

If the user then select "50 Miles", the box displays:

[Code] ........

ComboBox Control Source Update With Multiple UserForms

Oct 12, 2006

Excel – Forms – Combo Box, cell updating.

I have a form (the main one) which accesses a second form, which accesses a third form. All forms have a combo box, control button and a text box.

The items selected in the control boxes are entered into cells (the base cells) in the spreadsheet, via “Control Source”. The text boxes access these cells and show the selected items, which are then copied to other cells via a macro on activating the control button in the main form.

The main form stays open while other items are selected and transferred. Some of the items may not be changed (reselected) as they may be common. The problem is that after a number of items have been selected and transferred, the base cells for the second and third text boxes do not update after a selection from the combo boxes, and they continue to show a previously selected item.

The problem can be solved by closing the 2nd and 3rd forms and starting again. What can I do keep the cells updating without closing the form down?

Filter Named Lists For Use In ComboBox/Drop-down Box

Aug 29, 2006

I have a workbook that lists a number of customers and the products that they use. I am trying to create a lookup that will follow the following process;

1 - User enters (via dropdown selection) Customer Id

2 - User enters (via filtered dropdown based on the 1st selection) Product

3 - User enters (via filtered dropdown based on the 1st and 2nd selections) Pack Size

4 - Product Id autofills itself.

My problem is twofold, firstly I don't know how to perform the "filters" in stages 2 and 3, and secondly I want to remove duplications from all lists at the appropriate times.

Prevent Combobox Change Running Other Control Event Procedures

May 17, 2008

I have a userform with a combobox in it that's rowsource is a column of company names in a worksheet. When a company name is chosen, a combobox change private sub runs and many userform textboxes are populated with information about the company that was chosen from the combobox dropdown. This information is stored on a worksheet. I then want to edit any of the information in these textboxes. Once my edits are made I have a CommandButton that is pressed to save the edit changes. This CommandButton runs a private sub that disables the combobox (thinking this would prevent the combobox private sub from running), deletes the row that the information originated from, and then SHOULD make a new row of values based on the contents of the textboxes following the edits. The problem is that the CommandButton coding that deletes the row causes the combobox change private sub to run because the company that had been selected is now the missing from the rowsource; this causes an error.

Output Certain Items In A List?

Apr 30, 2014

I'm trying to accomplish the attached. This is just an example of what I want to do. There are no formulas in this spreadsheet.

Spreadsheet 1: Search by Number

Column A is a list of names

Column B is a list of numbers

Column C is a list of the names that correspond to the number "1" from Column B. Note that there are no blank rows between the names.

Spreadsheet 2: Search by Name

Column A is a list of names

Column B is a list of offices

Column C is a list of the names that correspond to office "Williams" from Column B. Note that there are no blank rows between the names.

I have used the index & match formulas to do this WITH duplicates or blank rows, but I would like to produce this without duplicates. I am willing to get as complicated as need be to make this happen.

I am trying to create a fairly simple spreadsheet with about 8 columns and about 400 rows. One of the columns features a drop-down list with about 8 or 9 different options. Dependant on which option is selected, i would like the entire row to change colour with that option.

For example:
FAILED - whole row changes red
SUCCESSFUL - row has no fill
Tested - row changes to orange

etc.

Is this possible within Excel 2003?
