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.
I am working with a VBA userform and several textbox's, setting SetFocus and or TabIndex doesn't leave the box ready to accept input and there is no cursor shown to indicate it is ready to accept input.
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.
For many projects I work on I use listviews in forms, this time I thought I'd try something different.
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:
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:
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 am wanting VBA language in a macro that will move the cursor a certain number of cells in a certain direction. For example, I want the cursor to move right one cell, no PARTICULAR cell, just right one cell. Is there something I can use?
I have a spreasheet with one locked collum that I don't want to be edited. Is there any way of filtering while this collum is locked? It seems to be that once it locks the collum it also locks the filters?
how to lock a formula in a cell, protect the sheet but still allow it to recalculate when new data is entered in a unlocked cell that feeds the formula? I am using Excel 2003.
Sub PastSpec() If Selection.Locked = True Then Exit Sub On Error GoTo ErrHan Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _ :=False, Transpose:=False ErrHan: Exit Sub 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.
I recently added two excel files to my startup, I receive the file in use error that the personal.xls is locked for editing box when the second file starts to execute. I can open them separately using their icons with no problem, what's the problem with opening them using the startup function. XP professional version 2002 SP2.
In the Properties for every Text box I have on my forms it's not letting me change any of the colours but I can change the fonts etc, I'm using Excel 2003.
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 VBC = wb.VBProject.VBComponents.Count On Error Goto 0 If VBC = -1 Then ProtectedVBProject = True Else ProtectedVBProject = False End If End Function
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"
I 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 was able to input barcode reader data into A1, and automatically get the date inserted into B1. I wish the next activecell to be C1, instead of A2 as the above code is doing at the moment - so how do I alter the code above to make this happen?
i have faced a problem i want to draw straight connector using code imagine when you select straight connector to draw line mouse cursor changes when you move it to a node i want to do this with excel vba code without going to shapes and selecting connector.
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.
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?
