Data Entry By Textboxes On Userform - How To Prevent Duplicate Record Being Entered

Jan 3, 2013

I have created a userform with 3 text boxes. It also has three buttons - clear, Cancel and Generate record button.

User form takes entries in the three text boxes and on clicking the Generate Record button, the values of the three Text Boxes are inserted in Column A, B and C of sheet1. The columns keep on populating with new data on each submit in the row below the last record.

Now it is required to enter data only if the value entered in TextBox1 is new and has not been entered previously in column A. If textbox entry is already aviailable in column A, a message box of 'Record available' shoud be prompted and the text entry must not be allowed until the data entered in TextBox1 is not unique.

Prevent Duplicate Data Entry Via Userform Based On Exact Match In 2 Columns

Jul 16, 2012

I have a userform with several textboxes and 2 comboboxes. The data that I need protected from duplication is based in the comboboxes. If I ignore the other fields and presume the following it may be easier to understand:

The comboboxes are populated by the data stored in sheet1 and when the userform is complete, the OK button populates all the data into sheet2

Combobox1 contains names eg, John, Julie, Bob etc
Combobox2 contains colours eg, Red, Blue, Green etc

I want the userform to allow the data to be entered into sheet2 only if it is not an exact duplicate of the choices in BOTH of the comboboxes

For Example
John Red
Julie Red
Bob Blue
John Blue

These are all ok, however, to try and enter John Red again would bring up a message box indicating a duplicate entry and prevent the data from being entered.

Macro For Data Entry That Checks For Duplicate Record

Dec 31, 2013

I have a spreadsheet that uses a Form for Data entry. Each record has ID, Name, State, and about 20 more columns of information for each ID.

The data entry is working well.

What I need now is to add a check for a UNIQUE ID. If they are adding a new record I need my form to return a message if the ID they use is already in the database. So if they enter XXXXX and that is in the file already - they should get a message that XXXXX is already in the database and to please enter a new ID.

And once they fix XXXXX to XXXXY then the record is added.

I should add that the ID is stored in column A.

Restrict Duplicate Value Entry In Textboxes

Nov 24, 2008

I have a userform with 8 text boxes and users have to enter different numbers separated by commas like 1,5,6,15,28 and so on.

I want to put a validation that if a number is entered in any of the textboxes than the same shall not be allowed in any other textboxes. Even in the same text box, no duplicate number shall be allowed. ie if in a textbox 1,2,15 is entered , then in the same textbox also, user cannot enter 1 or 2 or 15 again.

How To Prevent Duplicate Records From Being Entered On Recording Sheet

Feb 9, 2013

I have a created recording sheet (attached) for the purpose of recording moths. I send this sheet out to those recorders who live in my county and at the end of the year they send the filled in sheet back to me. Over time I have put safeguards onto the sheet to ensure that I get the cleanest data returned to me. However, there is still one area which is giving me problems - users entering duplicate records.

Some formula which will stop recorders from entering those duplicate records. There are many columns on the sheet which recorders have to fill in with information, but as far as the duplicate records are concerned it is where the same information is entered into columns C, F and J that I'm having a problem with. It would be great if, when the same information was entered in these columns that the affected cells were highlighted in some way and if an error message appeared saying 'Duplicate record, either delete or alter grid reference'

I have entered two test duplicate record on the 'macro moths' sheet of the attached file : Test Recording sheet.xls‎

Auto Copy Template On Record Entry & Link Set Cells Back New Record Entry Sheet

May 26, 2009

I am looking to create a macro that will create a new sheet when data is added on a summary sheet. Example.

1. Summary sheet called "Variations" contains columns that will contain the information needed for new sheet (Columns A to D)

2. When data is entered on "Variations" sheet: Column B, then macro automatically creates new sheet renamed to e.g. VO1 (Number used on "Variations" tab) and is a copy of "Master" tab.

3. Data entered in Column A to D on "Variations" tab is automatically entered onto new sheet created (e.g VO1). Shown is blue on attached file. Additional data is updated on "VO1" sheet and this then links back to "Variations" tab

Prevent Duplicate Entry From Textbox Into Different Worksheet

Jun 12, 2009

I have a entry form in which i want to register customers. the first field is the customer number (which is unique(created by me) for every customer). This is TextBox 1 in the document. I would like to search for duplicates in worksheet 2, collumn A, when pressing "enter" to move from TextBox 1 to TextBox 2. A search for duplicates should start and a message should appear " duplicate found" if found, otherwise continue to TextBox 2 for further entry of information.

Record Time And Date Of Data Entered Into Workbook?

Feb 24, 2012

I'm having trouble while trying to use a variable in a cell reference. I have a sheet that is being used to record the time and date of data entered into the workbook. This sheet is divided into columns, each designated to a specific type of data. I have written a macro to enter the current time in the correct column, but that macro is embarrassingly long and complicated because I used a series of if statements to handle all the different data being entered. I'm trying to simplify by using vlookup, and assigning the column value to a variable, and inserting that variable into the cell reference.

Here is the line I need to insert a variable into:

Sheets("Current").Cells(Rows.Count, columnstart).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Value = Now()

Where columnstart is my variable. It is an integer, but it's value will change depending on the type of data being entered.

Prevent Erroneous Data Being Entered

Jan 9, 2009

I currently have a monitoring spreadsheet which my staff enter data into each month. There have been some problems with staff entering data wrong so I have decided to build a userform to prevent errors. I have 2 combo boxes one for selecting a month of the year and another for a particular call the user must enter data for. I want the userform to enter the data from the userform into specific cells in a specific area. e.g. If a member of staff entered data into the userform for February, Call 2 then it would appear in the relevant boxes.

How To Prevent Duplicate Data Being Pasted

Jan 14, 2013

I have a worksheet that you can enter in

Forename, Surname, Area, D.O.B

This has a macro assigned that copies the data and pastes it into another worksheet at the next available row.

Now this works fine, but I want to be able to identify if the data already exists in the other worksheet then prevent it from being pasted and give an error message that the person already exists in the database.

Is this possible?

Prevent/Remove Duplicate Data From PivotTable Source

May 29, 2008

I am working pivot tables off of one large excel spreadsheet for my data. I have multiple pivot tables on each of 5 worksheets. The problem is this. Every other week I am sent an updated spreadsheet with the same column names each week which I then copy and paste it into the spreadsheet of the last one. When I refresh the pivot tables, I end up with duplicate field sets. For example, on column in the original data sheet is gender. On the first sheet I went through and renamed the "M"'s and "F"s to be "Male" and "Female" so that it is better looking when printed. Now when i get the new information and copy and paste it to rplace the old, and refresh the pivot tables, I end up with "Male" "Female" AND "M" "F". Now the "Male" and "Female" fields are empty and the "M" and "F" fields have the information. Is this a result of me renaming the fields?

Copy Data From Previous Row Into New Row IF Userform Textboxes Not Populated

Feb 19, 2014

I have designed a simple user form to populate a finding tracker spreadsheet. Updating the tracker works fine.

Although I only need to update certain textboxes in the user form, I find myself having to enter the same data in every textbox so that the next row of the spreadsheet is filled. In all cases, if a textbox is not updated for the next row, then the data should copy the data from the previous row.

For example, last data Transferred from the user form are as follows:

[Heading] Col A - Col B - Col C
[Row 1] Apple - Red - 10

Assuming I would only update the textbox for Col C in the user form, the next row in my spreadsheet would look like this:

[Heading] Col A - Col B - Col C
[Row 1} Apple - Red - 10
[Row 2] (empty) - (empty) - 20

As such, I would like to add a code that allows the data (Apple and Red in Col A and Col B) from the previous row to be copied automatically and only updates Col C with the new value 20.

Oh, I should add that I have mostly Textbox values (about 20 columns) in the spreadsheet with the exception of three columns with CheckBox values although I can always repeat the checkbox fields.

Userform Data Doesn't Show In TextBoxes On Another Sheet

Feb 23, 2012

I have a workbook with 3 sheets.

Sheet 1 is a sheet that has a shape with macro assigned to show Userform6.

Sheet 2 contains data that is displayed on Userform6. I use Userform6 to show statistical data that is on Sheet2.

Sheet 3 contains data that is input to ComboBoxes on Userform6 using the RowSource Property.

On Sheet 2, when I select Userform6, the data is correctly shown in all comboboxes and Textboxes......

On Sheet 1 when I select Userform6, only the comboboxes show the data...the textboxes do not show any data.

I do not want users to see the data on Sheet 2 which is why I want to show the Userform on a different sheet as the data sheet will be hidden from users.

Question is: How can I show Userform6 on Sheet 1 with all the data showing in textboxes?

So in this userform I am want it to add data to the main list of products. But, I ALSO want it to add to the specific list by selection of the data in the combo box.

It already adds the data to the main list. Now I want to be able to select the data in the combo box and have the userform data put in the specific combo box list.

In VBA editor it is the Inventory macro:

I want the macro to work exactly as it does right now, but I ALSO want the Combobox1 to dictate where Textbox1 and Textbox2 are added in a separate list on the products sheet.

Userform To Fill Data Entered Into Different (existing) Workbook?

I have a userform that I want to add to a button click event, to fill userform data into a different (already existing) workbook.

What I have is a userform for entering Purchase order information (Supplier, Date, PO#, Products, Descriptions, Qty's, expected dates etc.) What I am trying to accomplish with this particular button, is to 'Generate Purchase Order'... Have a seperate workbook, with a 'blank' pre-formatted formal purchase order that will be autofilled with said userform. The now generated Purchase Order ready for print/ save-as.

UserForm Data Entry/VBA

Feb 12, 2009

I've created a userform that will pop up automatically when opening my workbook. My workbook will have many worksheets identified by the employee's last name, then first name (i.e. Doe, John) Etc. I ideally would like the name entry in my user form to locate the correct worksheet based on the sheet name and then all of the other data in the user form be put in the next available/appropriate row and column, etc. of that particular sheet. This user form would save me a ton of time keeping my training logs up to date, instead of having to locate each employee tab manually and then enter the data and then look for the next tab, etc.

At the end of the year I'll manually go to each worksheet and balance that year's training time and cost (as you'll see from the attached example), but I'm hoping that the user form entry will identify that "yearly balance row" as having data and would skip to the next row to begin the next year's training entry. The "Enter Data" Button would place all of the user form data (other than the name) into the appropriate row/column and I believe my refresh button will empty the user form fields, but I'm hoping it won't delete the data that was just previously entered into the worksheet. (See attachment)
