get a horizontal scroll bar into a listbox ?
My litbox is 180 point wide (set by width command) but my text is wider.
I seem to remember if you set a small width in the .columnwidths property you can generate a scroll bar - but this is ignored for a single column listbox, which is what I have.
If I reset the .Width property to something very small (eg 50) then I get the scroll bar but for some reason it doesn't scroll the fullwidth of the text.
Scroll with Wheel Mouse in ListBox?
View 1 Replies View RelatedUsing Excel 10, Win 7, a User Form with list box control, I only need one column about 7 characters long. (At this point my horizontal scroll bar is taking up more room than the list box window so I'd really like to lose it). I don't see any property options for scroll bars to set.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having problems with an Excel workbook I am working on. I have a sheet that has a number of controls added to the top of it. Two of these controls are listboxes. My problem is, if I am in the listbox navigating through it, and I accidently move the Mouse Wheel, Excel crashes and I get the usual, "Send Error Report" form.
I have seen that there are other people having this problem and that there are a number of solutions out there but my problem is a bit different. I have a few forms with listboxes on them, and while mouse wheel scrolling doesn't work, it certainly doesn't crash Excel. It only seems to happen when I have a control permanently added to the sheet. Is there any event handler for mouse wheel scrolls or anyway to disable them through VB?
I am using the toolbox/ properties method to restrict the scroll area in the sheets of my workbook. However, for some sheets when i keep the right hand arrow pressed, the screen will not scroll to the last column. (i.e. the screen display will not move with the selected cell box)

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using vba to control internet explorer and return the inner html. To do this I have something like:
Dim arrinnerhtml As Variant
arrinnerhtml = IE.document.body.innerhtml
My problem is that I can’t get the meta description and keywords tags. The title tag seems relatively easy using:
Dim Title As String
Title = ie.document.Title
Is there a relatively simple way to do this for the description and keywords tags? It’d be nice if it was ie.document.description although it doesn’t seem to be. I’m obviously missing a trick here.

It means that when this user re-open the workbook, only the password for this step (workbook) and of course for the sheets still closed (not yet visited), will be requested...
There will be about 20 users, accessing the same file (at least 8 or 9 at the same time), and each one has a different level. For this reason the workbook is also protected: depending on the username and password, I'm trying let excel "knows" what sheet each user can open, without type a password again. trying to illustrating: (all users and password are added by me, using a MasterSheet)
user1 ----- already unprotected sheet9 ----- can open sheet1 to 9 (no password, even re-opening the workbook)
to open the sheet10, a username and a password are required
user2 ----- unprotected sheet3 ----- can open sheet1 to 3 (no password, even re-opening the workbook)
to open the sheet4, a username and a password are required

I have data in an Excel worksheet that needs to be entered into a proprietary programme. I believe this is possible using SendKeys but as I need to keep switching back to Excel to get the next bit of data I am unsure as to how to go about this. The program would already be open as it is a dial up situation and I would have to dial into the relevant site first.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am working on an Excel macro which uses the Shell function to open another application, the AppActivate statement to change focus to that application, and then a series of SendKeys statements to perform tasks for which keystrokes (hotkeys) are available. However, there is one step in the process which does not have a hotkey available, but requires clicking on a drop-down with the mouse. Is there a way to have an Excel macro "click" on something for which a hotkey is not available?

As the user begins to type the name, the drop down would narrow the choices alphabetically or the user could select the drop down list then hit the first letter of the name and go to that letter of the list (i.e. selecting "M" to go to the portion of the list that starts with "M").

Is there a way to turn the autocalculate off for this spreadsheet only when it is opened?
I need the formulas to calculate once only when the sheet is initially opened but then turned off after that. When user closes the spreadsheet, the autocalculate needs to be turned back on.
I am working on an excel sheet (2007) with about 8 pivots from the same data (huge db). The 8 pivots take a different cuts of data. One filter element is same across all pivots. (For instance let us say that filter is City names: with 10 different city values in it- NY, London, Chicago etc)
What I would like to do is have a system where I just chose NY in one place and all the 8 pivots should use NY as one of the filters and refreash the data accordingly.
What I am doing now is I got to each pivot, choose NY first and then refreash all for the data.

View 5 Replies View RelatedIn Excel 2007, I'm writing a macro to create several charts (column) that need to match what a designer has already built. I'm having a devil of a time finding the code I need to create parts of the chart. I've searched the web and this forum, but I must just not be asking the right things.
I can see everything I want to do in the format pop-up window when I right click on the charts in Excel, here is the path:
1) Format Minor Gridlines, Line Style, Dash Type, Rounded Dot
2) Format Axis, Axis Options, Major tick mark type, None
3) Format Axis, Axis Options, Position Axis, Between tick marks
I have a workbook that contains spreadsheets that serve as input sheets to generate reports (other spreadsheeets within the workbook). I did not create user forms as I find them cumbersome to do so. Instead I formatted the input sheets to be extremely user friendly. I protected the sheets so that user can only access the unlocked cells that require inputs.
Question:
Is it possible to control the movement of the cursor by both tab and enter like is done in the user forms. The input cells are spread out in various locations on the spreadsheet - therefore, I would like to drive the direction of the cursor as to what cell to go next after an input is made and entered by either hitting the enter button or tab button.
I have several toggle buttons on a spreadsheet for the user to choose which month they want data for. Can anyone tell me how I can make the toggle button that is in the down position change to the up position and not execute the command again when one of the other toggle buttons is pushed?

This is a representation of a screen that comes in 2 sections - sometimes the upper section is largest, sometimes the lower. (Sky above, land below for example)
Is there a way to draw and control the position of the line in this box, , so that by adding a numeric value in two adjecent cells, for example 75 25 would give more "sky" (the line towards the bottom) and 25 75 would give more "land" (The line towards the top)?
1) What function can I use to replace a specific cell in spreadsheet 2 with what I type in a specific cell in spreadsheet 1 (e.g. type red in spreadsheet 1 in A1 and it will replace a blank cell A1 in spreadsheet 2 with red)? I have around a hundred spreadsheets which I need to name by typing a name in cell A1. Rather than doing this, I already have the names of the spreadsheets in a column.
2) Is there anyway to control the attributes of cells in another spreadsheet? E.g. change to bold, red and specific size font in cell A1 in spreadsheet 2 using cell A1 in spreadsheet 1.

A while back I was assisted with trying to prevent excessive screen flashing...
I was originally using the Application.ScreenUpdating=False method...but it was still a little jumpy... so Richard Schollar (a valued member in our forum) helped me with this code and it seemed to work...
Now I am trying to apply it again to another macro and it is not working so well. The thing I found is that on some people's computers it does work well, but not on mine.
Does anyone know why that is and how I can fix it so it doesn't flash on mine either?

I am trying to change the text that appears on a button on a worksheet via a macro. There is only one button on the worksheet so in the macro I use
MyCaption = activecell.value 'Pick up the button text from the spreadsheet
For each sh in activesheet.shapes
sh.caption = MyCaption
'I know this would do all, but only one button as I said
next sh
which generates "Object doesn't support this property or method".
This is strange because if you get the properties box up, Caption definitely shows as a property of a button control.
I have a simple macro that allows for inserting cells above the selected cell. It actually inserts 2 cells: above the selected one and above the one immediately to the right on the same row.
I need to add 2 features to prevent mess ups:
- The Active cell should only be on column "N" and after row 15 on the sheet. Any other cell selection should be ignored or ideally pop a warning to prompt user to select a > N15 cell.
- An OK/Cancel dialog box that pops up before execution and reads:
"Are you sure you want to skip "text_of_selected_cell" for date "text_of_Column-13_cell_on_same_row"?"
Sub SkipDayRelative()
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 0).Range("A1:B1").Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
End Sub
