I want to create a editable textbox in a UserForm like a MS WORD that the user can edit the text (font, color, size, align...). This text will be show in a label or textbox in other UserForm in a programmable time if no user interference.
this programmable time is already soon.
i want to do the following: initialize a sheet by showing form1, which accepts user input for rows and cols name a range on the sheet of size rows x cols display form2 which is just a "DONE" button that they click when they're finished pause/stop the macros and allow the user to fill in values for that range start up some other macros when they press the "DONE" button.
i tried it and found that when you display a form it locks the sheet (can't select the sheet to input values) and you can't even alt tab away from the form. is there a way around this?
I am trying to create an easy to use document that allows users to click a button to add or subtract to another cell in my document. I have the basic functionality working, but am now working on making this more fool proof.
Basically what my macro does now is when user doubleclicks C1, 1 is added to B1. When user doubleclicks D1, 1 is subtracted from D1.
What I'd like to do is to protect C1 and D1 so that they can only be clicked to add or subtract, and not clicked as to edit the individual cell content (C1 and D1). B1 should still be unprotected so that the user can manually enter a number.
If possible I'd also like to change the below macro so it works with single clicks instead of double clicks, but this is not essential.
My document consists of several worksheets, and right now I am using the macro on each individual worksheet. If there is any way of modifying the macro so it works with the entire workbook instead of having a copy with each worksheet, that would be nice as well.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal _
Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
If (Target.Row >= 1 And Target.Row
I have a worksheet that has a months worth of data on it. The sheet is divided into sections with each day of the month being given 10 rows. So day 1 of the month will occupy rows 1 to 10, day 2 rows 11 to 20 and so on.
In each of these sectors, I would like to have an editable tick list that displays when a certain cell is selected. For example in day 1, selecting cell A3 will display the tick box. If I need a tick list for each day, would I need to create a fresh userform for each day or is it possible to have just one form and have excel remember the setting.
I never would have looked for this solution in Excel, but was forwarded a US map in excel with all state outlines and fill colors. It allow me to make simple sales territory maps- but I need to add Canada.
I don't have to add Canada to my existing map... if I could find North America altogether I'd start over.
I'm looking for some VB code that will enable me to dynamically create Textboxes for every value that I have in a range.
Example date in range B2:B5:
apple
banana
orange
pear
I would want the macro to create 4 Textboxes on the active worksheet, each one with the text contained in the range.
I don't know if anyone has tried this but it possible using vba to create a new folder in a directory from the text of a textbox?
I have made a userform that I use to collect a persons first name & surname.
I then created a folder in a directory manually (e.g Z:spnzphotos)
I then scan their photo and place it into the folder.
Is it at all possible to have a piece of code that once I press a command button is creates folder ready for me to add the photo to?

sometimes i'll have some text i want to show in a userform textbox. let's say the text happens to be in a sheet named story, and it is in A1 of the worksheet.
A1 says, for example:
" The next big thing can be found by clicking here "
if the note above were on a web page, all you'd have to do is click on 'here' and you are off the the next big thing. but so far, when i use this code to bring the text in story!A1 into the userform textbox all i get is the text. there is no 'clickability' as it were.
Me.textbox.Value = Range("story!A1").Value
is there some bit of code magic one can use to make a userform textbox function with html code?
I want to do is have a User form that allows a user to add a new column across several sheets (i.e. b2, then c2, then d2) where what the user has selected from 3 defined ranges (in this case commodity, pack_type and pack_spec) is concatenated. see the example attached. So for exmaple, I would like the choice of adding into cell B2 across all sheets (except sheet pack) gold solid 5kg. Then I can add the next into c2. I have tried searching few a few examples of userforms with various problems but I dont know how to code it correctly.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a user form on which I need to create a textbox every time the user clicks a button. There are too many to create them all in advance and make them visible when needed. The sample attached, from this forum, is good, except, the numbers in the text box just scroll along and I need to see all the text typed into my textboxes. I would like the textboxes to be multiline, wordwrap and have them resize according to the amount of text.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to format some TextBoxes from within a For/Next loop. I need a way to check which TextBox is the active TextBox in the loop. Using i as the variable, I came up with this code snippet: Me.Controls("TB" & i).Text = Format("TB" & i, "mm/dd/yy")
If i = 3, this gives me in TextBox3 (which is called TB3) the text 'TB3' and not the value of what is in TB3. It has got to bo something simple, I just can't see it!!!

View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a way without using code to have the text in a text box (excel 2003), copied to another cell or another text box on a different worksheet?
I have information in a text box on 1 worksheet. I would like this information to automatically be copied to another worksheet. On the master sheet, if any of the information gets changed or updated, the copied information should get updated as well.
I've been using the following code to conditionally format userform textboxes based on a specific value (in this case 2490):
[Code] ........
What I'm looking to do now is amend this so rather than use a specific value, to use the value in a specific textbox on the same userform.
I need a userform textbox event that fires after I tab or click out of the textbox. Going by the list of options:Beforedragover, BeforeDroporPaste, Change, DblClick, DropButtonClick, Error, Keydown, Keypress, keyup, mousedown, mousemove, mouseup.
I can't figure out which one will do what I want. The change event happens instantaneously which doesn't work. I need to fire off the event when my focus leaves the textbox.
I need the value of active x control textbox on my worksheet 1, to be copied to a textbox in my userform, that pops up from that sheet....
And I want it to display after the textbox on my worksheet has been updated and the comman button for the userform is clicked...
In Excel VBA Userform, how to copy the text from textbox automatically when the cursor is being moved from the textbox. And when i put CTRL+V then the copyed text has to be pasted.

Private Sub cmdSearchButton_Click()
Dim txtbox As String 'stores lookup value
Dim x As Variant 'value for wwid txt box
Dim ForeName As String
Dim SurName As String
Dim wwid As Variant
Dim iPosition As Integer
[Code] .......
Here is my code, it does a vlookup and if the persons name is not found it will split the text entered into forename and surname but when i try and add
Code:
frmAdd.txtForename.Text = "&ForeName &"
frmAdd.txtSurname.Text = "&SureName &"
It actually displays &ForeName & in the text box of the next from rather than what ForeName is..
eg. John Smith -> search button -> user not found msg -> user wants to add user -> string is split into forename and surname -> forename = John , surname = Smith -> display this in the second form.
What code should i be using to do this, i thought that &ForeName & would work.
Looking for a macro to insert a textbox with the textbox containing a formula rather then text.
Sub AddTextBox()

116, 145).Name = "Textbox1"

I have a form that has three fields (1. Comments (TEXT), 2. Legacy_Comments (TEXT), 3, Comment date (DATE))
Now my users need to keep adding comments to the comment text box, and when they do it automatically adds the date they entered the comment in the Comment date box. Now my problem is that since they keep adding comments to the comment box, I need to keep track of these comments in the Legacy_Comments (Text box).
For example, the First time a user enters a comment into the (1) comment text box it auto populates the date in the comment date box, and then adds the comment and date to the Legacy_Comment box. the end result is (comment,4/3/2014 now lets say a user needs to add a comment to the comments box tomorrow - I want the legacy_Comment box to then read (comment, 4/3/2014; comment2, 4/4/2014, ...., comment(n),date(n)) OR it can be vice-verse, because I just need to keep track of the comments, I am not worried if the new comments are before or after older (yesterdays / the day before yesterdays comments)
How can I write a VBA code that will always add the new comment to the legacy_comment field, without deleting the comments that were entered previously?
Code:
If isnull(me.comment.value) Then
Exit Sub
ElseIf me.comment.value = true Then
me.comment_date.value = date
me.legacy_comment.value = me.comment.value & "," & me.comment_date.value & ";"
me.legacy_comment.value = me.legacy_comment.value & "," & me.comment_date.value & ";"
It adds the comment only the first time, but it does not concatenate the string from yesterday to the string to today. I do not care which order the comments are, meaning if I added a comment today it can be before OR after the comment from yesterday.
I tried looking for everywhere, but i still cant seem to find the solution.. I have an Active X textbox on a worksheet, and I need it's value to show up on a textbox on my userform, that shows up through a command button on that worksheet. I'm fairly new to vba.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a two-page multipage form. I have a textbox on page 1 (txtOccupantLoad), and I want to pass the value from that textbox to another textbox (txtOccLoad_L1) on page 2. The code I've tried so far looks like this:
Private Sub cmbChooseLevel_Change()
If Me.cmbChooseLevel.Value = "Level 1" Then
Me.txtOccLoad_L1.Value = Me.txtOccupantLoad.Value
End If
End Sub
What I'm trying to do is to use the same form for 10 different levels (floors) of a building. Then on page 2, I'll itemize the values for each floor. So the combobox determines which floor the calculations are for; txtOccupantLoad is the total of all incremental occupant loads on that floor; and txtOccLoad_L1 is the first of a series of textboxes on page 2 where the value for Level 1 should go. If the combo box shows "Level 2" then I'll write new code for the txtOccLoad_L2, and so on. I've also tried including "page1." and "page2." after "me."
I am trying to create a user form that has a series of text boxes that will all have a VLOOKUP function in them based off of input from a the first text box. If I can just get the code for the first one, I think I can figure out the rest. We will say that the file that the user form is contained in is 'Agent Administration' and the file that I want the VLOOKUP to pull from is called ' Roster for Auto Population'.

I was trying to guess the code... but it is not working...:
UserForms("Userform1").TextBox1.Value = UserForms("Userform2").TextBox2.Value

View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to create a macro that can create a dynamic copy/paste loop. So far what I have is horribly inefficient. Each row in colmn A(minus the header) has a unique number in it. For each unique number, I need to paste it based on the number of column headers in row 1(minus column A). So, if there are 20 column headers, I need to copy cell A2 and paste it 19 times in another sheet. Then, I need to move to the next number in column A and do the same thing. Here's what I have:
[Code] .........
You can see that this is not dynamic. If I add another row to my table and rerun the macro, it will not catch it. I've attached a sample file to show you the big picture of what I'm trying to do. The data that I have is in Sheet1, and I'm trying to get it into the format in Sheet3. Rows/columns will be periodically added to the table in Sheet1, so the macro needs to be dynamic to catch that. The data in Sheet3 will always remain, and the macro will add the updated data below the old data in Sheet3.
