I try to move the cursor using the keyboard arrows it stays on the cell it is on and the whole spreadsheet page moves across the screen in the direction of the arrow. So how do I restore cursor movement to the arrows.
View 3 RepliesI have a sheet with 56 columns with locked columns every 6 or 7 columns.
The rest of the sheet is unlocked for data entry.
What I would like the cursor to do is when it reaches a locked column, drop to next row instead of moving to the next free cell in the row.
Data entry is from left to right first six columns starting at C8 to H8
Next is L8 To Q8 and so on for 56 columns
When cursor reaches H8 I want it to drop to C9 or whatever column I'm entering into Q8 to L9

I'm talking about the little black box that appears anytime you put the mouse on a cell, or drag the mouse around a group of cells - mine doesn't show up. I can still edit the cell, but I have to guess about which cell I am on.

How do I make the cursor jump down to the next row. Example: once I entered value on H2, I would like the cursor jump down to A3 then once I reach H3, the cursor would jump down to A4 and so on.

I've created a scrollable frame with dynamically added controls and have started creating their events in a class module.
Here is the problem I now face. If I create for example a label at design time I can click on the MouseIcon property and navigate to the "hand.cur" file I have.When dynamically creating the label control I have been able to reference to the file by using:
Code:
.MouseIcon = LoadPicture(ThisWorkbook.Path & "hand.cur")
What I've now done is embed the file on a worksheet, but hat the correct syntax is to refer to it. I've come up with the following but it doesn't work:
Code:
.MouseIcon = LoadPicture(ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Objects").OLEObjects("Object 1"))
Am I on the right lines or am I completely off the mark.
I received this code from the board about a month ago. It works perfectly to highlight the row the cursor is currently in but, has one flaw. Once you place this code in the sheet module and the code initiates, it will "erase all other highlight colors" within your sheet. Is there a way to correct this problem?
Here is the code;
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Cells.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
With Target.EntireRow.Interior
.ColorIndex = 37
.Pattern = xlGray25
.PatternColorIndex = 24
End With
End Sub

I recorded part of it and adapted it afterwards. You will notice I have a line to check for locked cells, this does its job if the cell selected is locked. However if the cell selected is unlocked and the cell below is locked the code still excutes and pastes.

Using vba, I want to be able to tell if the vba code is locked. Using the below function I can tell most of the time. The only problem is if the " Lock project for viewing" isn't checked the below function will say it isn't protected. Is there a way to tell if it is protected even if they didn't check "Lock project for viewing".
Function ProtectedVBProject(ByVal wb As Workbook) As Boolean
' returns TRUE if the VB project in the active document is protected
Dim VBC As Integer
VBC = -1
On Error Resume Next

On Error Goto 0
If VBC = -1 Then
ProtectedVBProject = True
Else
ProtectedVBProject = False

Usually when I select a number of cells with my cursor excel adds up the cells and shows a total on the bar. It's stopped doing this now and will only show the 1st cell showing "max=No"
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have created a simpel userform that shows sales total and it is activated [.show function] whenever an entry is made in the order column. All of this works fine.
The only problem I have is that the curser jumps in to the text box and doesn't return to the order column where next entry needs to be made.
How do you move the curser out of the userform, back to the activesheet?
Ideally it should move to the next cell for the user to make entry.
I am attaching my sample file here. It has some odd things that I was just playing around with as learning experience. But the main question is how to control the curser.

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.
is there a control for placing the cursor at the beginning of a large amount of text in a userform testbox.
evertime i run the userform the cursor is at the last entry so the user has to scoll up to read?
Is there a code to make the Cursor Movement direction to be set to move Left ?

My Excel sheet is a check list inventory and is arranged in three, two column matrix.
The cells are expecting an integer rating (1-5).
Problem Description:
What I would like to do is enter my integer rating in a cell in a column and then automatically have the cell selection advance once to the right and then down to the next row until all the cells have been filled with there integer ratings.
I would like to do this without having to hit the enter or tab key.
I know this will probably be a simple thing, but how do I write in code the function cntl Home and then arrow down to take my cursor back to the top of my worksheet?
