Data Validation Form / Verification
Jun 26, 2014
Just curious if there is a way to do some sort of Data Validation form that will check the previous selection and remove it from a list for the next selection? I have several machines that my company sells and I am working on an advanced invoice. I am trying to set it up so that if one machine is selected, it will populate the data validation boxes with one set of "options" for that particular machine. Also, when the user clicks on one option, no matter which one, it will remove that option from the list below it. I have posted up somewhat of a screenshot/crop/paste example of what I am attempting to do.

I am trying to check what was selected from a validation list range. I need to put up a message box if a certain selection is made. I will try to give some more explaination and detail.
I have a 'Labor Type' cell that has a validation list based on the 'LaborType' range that contains things like T&M, PM, Claim*, Quote, etc. When Claim* is selected, I want to put up the message box reminding the user to enter some additional information.
I have tried a few things like Worksheet_SelectionChange that I can't seem to get to work. I admit it has been a while since I have used a function like this (and never with a list).

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.

Im looking to have some data validation on the 3 text boxes of my form.
Text box 1 is Item name and i wish for that text box to only accept Text up to 30 characters.
Text box 3 is Product code and i wish for it to only accept 10 chracters max, the first two of which must be text and the last ones must be number. eg CA04124 or EK123456, there must be at least 2 numbers after the first two letters but no more than 6, there must be two letters before the numbers also.
Text box 4 is Price which i want to only accept number.
I understand the text box numbering isnt even, i dont know why not. Here is the code i am working with. Is the only way for this validation to be done by editting the code? If so i would be very grateful for someone to do this for me or tell me how to.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim LastRow As Object
Set LastRow = Sheet1.Range("a65536").End(xlUp)
LastRow.Offset(1, 0).Value = TextBox1.Text
LastRow.Offset(1, 1).Value = TextBox3.Text
LastRow.Offset(1, 2).Value = TextBox4.Text
MsgBox "One item added to Main Page"
response = MsgBox("Do you want to enter add another item?", _
vbYesNo)
If response = vbYes Then
TextBox1.Text = ""
TextBox3.Text = ""
TextBox4.Text = ""
TextBox1.SetFocus
Else
Unload Me
End If
End Sub

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. I want to be able to put that information just like if it was a scorecard and then have a button that says submit. 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 trying to figure a to enforce dual data validation on a single cell. That is, I need to restrict the user to entering only a decimal value, only if a particular other cell (say A2) is blank. To put it another way, if A2 is blank, the user can enter a decimal value, but if A2 is not blank, the user cannot enter anything. I can use Data Validation to enforce either the decimal restriction or the ISBLANK, but I'm not sure how to make them work together.

I want one procedure that will validate the CURRENT textbox (not named by name, to allow for the procedure to be included in the change event of several different textboxes), to see if it is numeric (decimal places allowed) in Excel 2007.
I followed the instructions here: {url}, which describe exactly what I want to do. So I put the final procedure listed on that page (the dynamic validation code) into the private module of the user form object as listed below:
Private Sub pipes_Change()
OnlyNumbers
End Sub
Private Sub OnlyNumbers()
'This procedure checks to see if the value
'of the current textbox is a number or not
If TypeName(Me.ActiveControl) = "TextBox" Then
If Not IsNumeric(.Value) And .Value <> vbNullString Then
MsgBox "Sorry, only numbers are allowed."
.Value = vbNullString
End If
End With
End If
End Sub
I then ran the form and typed a number into the "pipes" textbox that had been validated. A compile error is thrown: "Invalid or unqualified reference", highlighting the ".Value" portion of IsNumeric. I tried to remove certain parts of the code, such as the IF statement and the "And .Value <> vbnullstring", but nothing works. I have a feeling it is because this code was created for Excel 2003 (though I'm not certain).

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'm having trouble trying to come up with a way to insert data fields into a spreadsheet form. I have a travel authorization form that I would like to have automatically fill in the required fields based on typing in a name. i.e. I would type in an employees name, and it would automatically fill-in the correct address, etc for that employee. I have attached a spreadsheet that contains one sheet as the form, and another sheet containing the employee data. I know nothing about VBA, but I have a feeling that is where I need to go.

I am needing to create a form that exports data (a quote) to an Excel Db (table) and is then able to recall the data back into the form. (the default form in excel does this and I want to copy that.)
Once the data is called back in, I can then export it to another Table to show that the quote has been approved and will be used.
I am having trouble with the VBA coding that copies the inputted quote in Cell C2 (the reference for the quote number) of the "Form" sheet and looks it up in the "Database" sheet. I have tried several variations of code, but nothing works so far.
-SS
Sub RecallQuote()
'
' RecallQuote Macro
'
Sheets("Form").Select
Range("C2").Select 'this is the cell that holds the quote number to look up from the table

find the attached workbook
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 2 columns First Name & Surname. What I want to do is create a data validation list on the surname which results in the 2nd data validation list only showing the first names which link to one of the surnames.
i.e. If I selected Smith in the 1st validation list then I would only like to see 'Paul' as an option in the 2nd list
First Name
Surname
Paul
Smith
Paul
Jones
Tony

In the following code snippet I have worked out a way to verify that the user inputs an Integer and then prompts downstream if an improper value was entered. The user is prompted for a corrected reponse and loops until they get it right. The initial Cancel at the first prompt was causing issues until i saw poster: titarelli use StrPtr(). Except for subsequent cancels, the code works but it is clunky at best. How to tighten this up?
VB:
Dim Quantity As Variant
Dim CorrectedQuantity As Variant
Dim j As Integer
j = 194
Quantity = 0
CorrectedQuantity = 0

I have a VBA userform with various textbox fields like 'Name' and 'Address' and 'Amount'
I would like an input box to pop up that asks the user to 're-enter for verification'
So that they have to type the same thing twice, to protect against typos
How do I code it so the program compares the inputbox to the textbox and passes only if they are identical?
(or even, using two inputboxes instead if that would be easier)

i have followed the following criteria correctly
Create a function GetProducerRow() which takes in one String input (give it any name following the conventions) and returns an Integer.
Write a Select Case statement inside the function.It should compare the input string with the various companies listed in the Voting tables in cells F5:F9.
The Case should not use hard coded values for the names of the companies but something like Range("F5").Value.
In each case, set the return value by assigning the appropriate row number. For example, the value assigned would be 5 for "The Hershey Company" store in F5.
Remember to write Case statement for each of the 5 producers.
Add the Case Else in-case none of the producers match the input and have the return value set to 0.
Function GetProducerRow(strProducer As String) As Integer
strProducer = Range("F5")
Select Case strProducer

I started a new collection of cards (soccer cards actually) and since I trade with some of my friends via mail, I needed something to keep track of the ones I have and the ones I don't. I made an excel spreadsheet with the numbers of the cards.
Here's my question (I don't know if its possible or not):
I there any way I can create a way to make the verification easier by, for example:
I just got card A20. I write A20 on a specific cell and, in the main table, that number changes color to indicate that I already have that card.
And in the end, a way to reverse the process so I can have the table brand new for the next use.

I'm trying to write what is supposed to be a simple script that looks at a column of usernames (ColumnA) and passwords (ColumnB). I start off by prompting the user to enter their username in an input box and then I want a loop to check this value against the values in Column A. If the username exists, I want to prompt an input box for the password. If the username does not exist I need some kind of limit on the loop to prompt an input box for the user to enter a new username and password that I'll add to the last row of the data table. The loop part is kicking my butt, this is what I have so far...
Sub Main()
Set StartRange = Worksheets("16.10"). Range("A1")
username = InputBox("Please enter your username.", "Enter username", "Jdoe")
i = 1
Do While StartRange.Offset(i, 0).Value <> "username"
i = i + 1
Loop
If StartRange.Offset(i, 0).Value = "username" Then
password = InputBox("Please enter your password.", "Enter password", "password")
End If
End Sub

I am trying to have a column that returns either "secure" or "re-assignable" depending on whether the employees title matches the appropriate office/ space allocation.
e.g. an employee who's title is "CEO" and office type is "Large Exterior Office" would return a secure. However an employee with a title of "Admin Assistant", who's office type is "Large Exterior Office" would return "re-assignable"

I have a condition setup (under "This Workbook") upon opening a spreadsheet to verify a computer's predetermined motherboard serial number that will shut the Excel workbook down if the numbers do not match. This works fine. What I'd like to do is to add a second condition that will allow a password to be entered in a textbox if the numbers do not match so that the serial number condition could be manually overridden, if necessary. If the serial number and the password are incorrect the workbook automatically closes.
Here is the code that works:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
If CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").GetDrive("C:").SerialNumber "-XXXXXXX" Then ActiveWorkbook.Close False
End Sub
Here is what I am attempting to do that is not functioning properly - need to add a textbox to enter a password to override an incorrect serial number
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
If CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject").GetDrive("C:").SerialNumber "-XXXXXXX" Then
Dim Rng
Rng = InputBox("aaaaaa")
If Rng "aaaaaa" Then ActiveWorkbook.Close False
End Sub

I would like to know if it's possible to populate a data validation list based on what is selected from 4 validation lists?
for example:
On sheet1:
If 'Group1' is selected from data validation list1 then data validation list5 will show a list of all items from Group1. If 'Group2' is selected from data validation list2, then data validation list5 will display all the items in 'Group2'...
(I do not want to use a combo box for this)

Now that the calculations are working, with the press of a button, I need to be able to select a range of dates and copy all lines within the range to a seperate sheet with the desired name under the same headings they currently reside under. I have included some modified code that is being used in another spreadsheet that was created for me, but I do not pretent to understand all of it and I no longer work with the creator of the spreadsheet. How do I use a button to open the form for date selections and entering the name of the new sheet, and then use the start button on the form to begin the matching and copying to a new sheet? If there is an easier way I am all for that too.

I'd like to create a drop down list in data validation from a column of data that contains numerous duplicates.
For example, let's say column A contained hundreds of transactions with either North, South, East and West, how could I create a drop down list in another cell that only had four selection options?
