I've got a spreadsheet that contains company names and columns with specific information about each company. There is a different company in each row. I have a form (text bow) at the top of the spreadsheet that I would like to auto-populate with the row's information when the user clicks on a row. How do I go about doing this?
View 12 RepliesI know this problem could be easily solved with the use of access. Unfortunatly I can only use excel. I am creating a uniform stock database. I a trying to create a user friendly face sheet, so that the operator does not have to have any knowledge of excel to use it. My question is to do with a data entry form. Sheet 2 of my spreadsheet has a list of all uniform in stock. At the moment it has two coloumns, "uniform type" and "uniform size". Is it possible to create a form on sheet 1 (the user interface) where a user could imput the type and size of an article of uniform that had just come in, and have it automatically added ot sheet 2?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am a personal loans officer and have created a worksheet to input a range of information about an application. The information is personal details and details about the loan. The data I input runs down Column D [with line breaks to seperate the answers into categories] with the question beside it in Column C.
I do this for every new application as I use it for reporting on my loans as well as mail merge to produce documents for the loan.
Currently I am doing one per loan but would like to have a button at the bottom of the page that once clicked, it will push the data onto another worksheet so that all my loans for that month are on the one spreadsheet. The data will be pushed onto a row, not a column, but it will also need to find the next available row to put the data on.
Once the button is clicked, the first worksheet will clear ready for the next loan to input and the data will transfer to the 2nd spreadsheet. And, if possible, on the first sheet will be a drop down list of all the current loans so I can recall any application details to the first sheet if needed to update details. So if the 'loan number inputed' already exists, it wont create a new line on the 2nd spreadsheet, but will know just to update the fields.
I'm wanting to create a simple form type interface for the viewing and changing of data one record at a time. What I'd like is on sheet one, and simple portait form to display
First Name
Surname
House Name
Address Line 1
Address Line 2
Town
County
on sheet two each column will be one of the above fields and each row will be a new record. Is there a way to do this in excel? Im trying to create a simple user experience that hide the rows & colums.
I have limited ability with Excel, and I'm trying to create a database using the Data/Form menu choices. My problem is I only want specific data in two of the 20 or so fields. When I use Data/ Validation and direct data entry, I get exactly what I want, EXCEPT that the choices don't come up when I use the Data/Form. Users can enter anything they want, which defeats the purpose. I tried to build a user form to use for data entry, but I don't know how to get it to add items to a database or lookup items like the data/form process does. I also want to add a few macro buttons to the form to do other things.
I am pretty sure of a few things: 1) This should be pretty simple. Anyone knowing VBA would probably know how to do this in minutes. I found some code that did a simliar function, but couldn't interpret it to fit my needs, which brings me to 2) I'll never use VBA or complicated macros again. I don't have the need for them. This is just an isolated incident. Therefore, signing up for a class would be useless to me. I tried to locate some advanced Excel/VBA classes, hoping to find an instructor or even a student who would welcome a simple challenge, but there are none available.
I need to create a form that if you were to enter a name in the text box it would fill all the information across that row into other boxes on the form. Basicly if I type John Doe in the text box it would look in col A for John Doe and then put whats in the cells on that row into different boxes on my form. I have tried searching but I have had no luck. Im very new to forms so this is a great experience.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a very simple order form. It's been a while since I've done this in Excel, and I couldn't find an answer when I searched. (I may be a lousy searcher, though.)
I want the user to enter a quantity in Column E of the "Common Items" worksheet, and have all the rows with quantities copied to the "Order" worksheet. (On the "Order" copy below, I just did a copy/paste to show the desired effect.)
Excel 2007

I'm pretty sure this can be accomplished with an If/Then, but I'm lost! Optimally, they'd enter their quantities, click on the Order sheet and hit print.
I am trying to create a drop down list so that when the user choose Option A, Outcome A populates the cell.
So for example, I am looking to show a list of all Grades within the company, when the user selects a grade, the salary is populated into the cell.
I'm trying to use a VB code to insert check box in excel. I have 1000 records and i need to insert 1000 cehck box. I know how to do it manually for few but to do it for 1000 that just going to take too long.
View 9 Replies View RelatedThis challenge may be better handled in Access or a true database but the person making the request only uses Excel.
1. Create a form that will accept names, dates, and grades.
2. Store the information on a separate worksheet so that it's being accumulated and reports can be ran from it.
I'm aware of Excel's automatic form but it doesn't allow for validation.
Example: some score ranges are 0-5 others are 0-15. We can't allow for a 12 to be put in where the max is 5.
I know how to do the validation. The big challenge now is telling Excel: I've completed entering this record. Now clear, and start a new record on the next row?
I'm using below code for creating check-boxes dynamically on a form:
Code:
Do
Set cb = Me.Controls.Add("forms.checkbox.1", "Cb_" & option_counter, True)
With cb
.Left = 100
.Top = 100 + height_diff
.Caption = Sheet1.Cells(quest_num, option_counter + 1).Value
End With
height_diff = height_diff + 30
option_counter = option_counter + 1
Loop Until option_counter = total_options + 1
It is working fine.....Now after this, I want to check which are the chechboxes whose value is true. How do i do that?

I'm trying to make a spreadsheet that will track my expenses. What happens is I enter in my daily expenses in a "Notes" worksheet. This includes the date, whether it's a debit/credit, and what category is it (rent, tuition, entertainment, work income etc). It looks like this
Date - - - - - - Debit - - - Credit - - - Category
1-May-06........................$500...........Rent
4-May-06........................$30 ..........Dining out
etc..
Then I have another worksheet called "Expense outline" which pretty much sums all expenses in each category and displays a summary. So it would show how much I have spent in total on each category for each month. Looks something like this
------------------May-----------June---------July...
Rent..................$300
Cable/TV............$50
Internet.............$50
Dining out..........$100
Entertainment.....$50
So what I did for the Entertainment summary for the month of May was, I used a SUMIF(column of categories, "Entertainment", column of credits). This will look for the category name "Entertainment" in my "notes" worksheet, and sums the corresponding amount from the credit row. The problem is, I also want to include it so that it will automatically differentiate between the different months. Right now, when I'm choosing the column of categories for May, I select only the cells in the month of may when I'm choosing my column of categories and credits.

I am trying to create a form to use as a golf tracker. I basically have created a scorecard where I input the date, score, fairways in regulation, greens in regulation and putts.

Then that information is output into individual sheets (i.e. one for scores, one for fairways, one for greens and one for putts).

I'm creating a Purchase Order Form that will reduce time spent adding in contact details.What I'm looking to achieve is a form that will be printed with a few formulas allowing sections of the form to be filled out automatically once a singular company name (chosen from a drop-down list I created, currently with a 'Combo box ActiveX') then the rest of the form is filled out accordingly.
At the moment it's a bit of a mess, not too sure where I'm meant to put the ranges.There are currently 2 sheets - Sheet 1 with the form, Sheet 2 with all contact information.
I'm missing something in my UserForm initialization code. If I fill the form out once and click 'OK' (run the code to put the form data into a sheet), when I go back into the form all the old info is still there. If I then click 'Cancel' (Unload Me) and reopen the form, the old data is cleared out. What am I missing to make it clear it out the first time?

I've been tasked with creating an updated booking system for a company which offers projects / services to the educational sector (UK Primary Schools.) I've done an alright job at augmenting their current Excel based system, but I would like to take it further so that the system is more all encompassing.
Currently, the booking form is filled in when a booking is made and the data from that is populated into their copy of the contract and our copy of the contract using simple "=" and to a certain extent, the text on the contracts is manipulated based on the booking form data using "IF" functions.
There is a basic macro which removes excess lines from the contracts if they aren't used, but that's about it. The difficulty we're having with the current system is that a lot of our projects are bespoke, happen over more than one date, and require a lot of manual manipulation in order to get them ready, which sort of defeats the object of having a 'clever' booking system.
I don't know very much about VB, but the sort of thing I would be looking to integrate is having drop down lists to select a 'project' which would load project-specific text into the contracts area. Also, instead of having to remove lines manually, I would like the data to be 'dropped in' creating rows as appropriate.

I have a Database and user form, in the user form i have a field named “Vehicle No” this is a combo box from which a user needs to select the Vehicle numbers, and all these are working fine now, I need your help in the following:
When user selects the second field named "Select Vendor name" i need a pop up window which shows all the Vehicles belongs to the vendor which they have selected, and with the popup window user selects the vehicle number then the Vehicle number combo box should be filled.
Currently users have to select by scrolling through Combo box which takes long time and difficult to find by scrolling.
I have created a registration workbook for this year's youth sports league. All of the information is entered into a User Form and separated onto it's appropriate sheet designated by the child's age. Next year, I would like to use this year's workbook to look up returning players.
Will it be possible to add a "lookup" button into my form, or create a lookup program, that once the registrar clicks on the correct player, the information is plugged into the User Form, the registrar adjusts the age and any necessary info, presses enter, and the information is copied into the appropriate category in the new workbook? I haven't worked with User Forms long enough to know if they can be filled in that way, but if this can be done, you are the people who would know.

I have a spreadsheet where my agents need to answer B3, B4 and B5 before B12 provides the answer. Currently, B12's formula works but it doesn't require the 3 other cells to be completed - it defaults to "No" until all 3 are complete and then changes to "yes" if the 3 cells match the formula I have set up already. Is there a way to prevent B12 from showing "No" until the 3 cells are filled out? I would prefer it stay blank until the cells are complete. I have tried the ISBLANK route but I'm not sure it is the right way because both B3 and B5 are set up with Data Validation lists so I dont think its picking those up as truly being blank...(maybe?).
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am currently building a sheet that requires a drop down box that will auto-populate two separate fields. I have tried to the point of being suicidal to make this work but to no avail.
A detailed explanation:
The worksheet containing the drop down list and fields that need to auto-populate.
sheet example.png
The raw data, located on a separate tab in the same workbook. (Note: there are over 1500 rows of data)
sheet example 2.png
The drop down box will be in the "Description" column and will contain a list of services my company provides. Once selected it will auto-populate the "Rate" column and the "Item ID" column. The raw data that the list is pulling from is located on a separate tab.
I can make the list just fine, it's easy enough to just go to the Data Validation feature and point to where you want the list and where you want the data to come from, but getting the list to pull the data from different columns and go into the columns on the work sheet is apparently beyond my knowledge of excel. I figured it would just be a simple formula setup through the VLOOKUP formula wizard but I've tried it at least 20 different ways, all of which fail. I've tried HLOOKUP too but it also failed.
