I am trying to validate two things for one TextBox and they somehow contradict each other:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
TextBox_today.Value = Date
TextBox_today.Text = Format(TextBox_today.Text, "dd mmm yy")
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox_expiry_BeforeUpdate(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
With Me.TextBox_expiry
If IsDate(.Text) Then
.Text = Format(.Text, "dd mmm yy")
Me.Label_expiry.Caption = "expiry as date:"
Else
Cancel = True.................................
Also, what other date formats I could use besides "dd mmm yy?"
I have a text box in which date will be entered. I am using the following code to validate and format the date.
Code: Private Sub txtTDate_BeforeUpdate(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean) If IsDate(txtTDate.Value) Or txtTDate.Value > Date Then sDate = DateSerial(Year(Date), Month(Date), Day(Date))
[Code]...
I expected it to return error if the date entered is less than Current(System's) date. This is not working.
I have a TextBox on a UserForm in which the user should be entering a series of coma separated zip codes. (12345, 54321, 15243, ...) The number of zips to be entered is variable.
I would like to validate entry as the user types. My first thought is to use the change event and tell it that only numbers, comas, and spaces are allowed, but that doesn't do anything about ensuring 5 digits per zip or having a space after each coma.
Is there a Format function that would allow for a variable number of zips? What else might work?
I have a userform used to input vehicle information. To prevent any errors, is it possible for data Validation to be set in a listbox to accept upto 7 characters (both numbers and letters)
I have a useform with about 30 Text boxes for user input.
when the user exits the box I want a validation check routine.
I need to verify 4 things.
1. That the entry is numeric.
2. Thew at the entry is above the minimum.
3. The Entry if below the maximum.
4. Number of decimal places.
Since I have 30 boxes and will be adding more in the future I need a Subroutine. Here is what I have (I know it does not work - I need help with the syntax.
i am using this code which was provided by a kind ozgrid member
If Not IsNumeric(Me.txtLength.Value) Then MsgBox "Use numbers only", vbCritical, "Numbers Only" With txtLength .SelStart = 0 .SelLength = Len(txtLength) End With
unfortunately it will not allow me to use a decimal point EG: 2.5. allow a deciaml point?
I am trying to validate a textbox (txtCode) on my userform to accept the following type of entry: AB/123/07. The centre set of numbers will change & could also be four or five digits long. I have searched & found several threads but none that solve my problem.
I am trying to make validation so a textbox in a form can only accept only letters. At the moment however i can only seem to stop it entering numbers on its own, i cant stop it from accepting letters and numbers. here is the code so far. (please try keep the code simple as possible i have seen more diffuclt solutions but they are to difficult)
Private Sub LetterVal() 'Validation to ensure only Letters may be entered into the text box. If IsNumeric(Textbox1) Then Textbox1.BackColor = &HFF& MsgBox ("Only letters aloud in field") Else Textbox1.BackColor = &H80000005 End If End Sub
I have a user form to get some input from the user and want to make sure that in some textboxes user should be able enter only text i.e A to Z or a-z no numbers or special charecters.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim RegEx As Object Dim Strng As String
Strng = CStr(Me.TextBox1.Value) Set RegEx = CreateObject("vbscript.regexp") With RegEx .Pattern = "^[A-Z]{2}/d+/d{2}$" If Not .test(Strng) Then MsgBox "Invalid Format: TextBox1" End With Set RegEx = Nothing End Sub ..............................
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 using the following code to try to ensure a value is entered into a text box, but when I click over to the next text box skipping the first one entirely, I don't receive any message indicating the previous box is empty. I'm trying to make it so certain fields are required and others are optional. Here's the code I'm currently using:
This is the code where you click on a cell that has been input from Data Validation, it gets a pop up textbox showing the text input. One drawback I see here is that when the sheet is protected, one needs to tick 'Edit Objects' in 'Allow all users of this worksheet to:' window to get the textbox to pop-up otherwise no textbox is shown.
So this leads to the accessed user to have the ability of deleting and moving the textbox in the protected spreadsheet. Do you have any idea to Protect the sheet, Get the textbox to pop up, Disallow user to delete/move the textbox.
As part of a UserForm I am Validating and Formatting in one pass. The problem I'm having is that when the Validation fails, I get the error message, and the focus moves on to the next text box.
I want to trap the user in a loop until they have acceptable data
I have userform with date pickers and have text boxes overlaid on these, when I select todays date from the date picker it does not display the current date in the text box (I have 8 date pickers on the userform). If I select another date then reselect the current date it works. It has occasionally worked but why.
Below is the code for populating the text box from the Date Picker.
Private Sub DTPicker1_Change() TextBox1.Value = DTPicker1.Value End Sub
The initialize userform code uses the following to format and set the textbox
I am setting up some validation on my userform. In this case if a user enters a date within two weeks of todays date they will not be able to proceed onto the next page.
Example: Todays date is 19/03/14. If a user enters 25/03/14 into 'TxtDate' they will not be able to proceed.
I am attempting to pick up a date with time entry on a worksheet and place it into a TextBox on a UserForm. Format on the sheet is mm/dd/yyyy h:mm AM/PM. The UserForm is placing the value as mm/dd/yyyy 12:00 AM. here is the
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() If Not Range("dDate").Value = "" Then TextBox2.Value = Range("dDate").Value TextBox2.Text = Format(DateValue(TextBox2.Text), "mm/dd/yy h:mm AM/PM") Else TextBox2.Value = "" TextBox2.SetFocus End If End Sub
"dDate" is the named range where the date is sitting. The format is also set on the TextBox2 exit event. Can anyone see why only the date portion is being transfered with the default 12:00 AM for no time component of the value?
I am attempting to format some TextBoxes from within a For/Next loop. I need a way to check which TextBox is the active TextBox in the loop. Using i as the variable, I came up with this code snippet: Me.Controls("TB" & i).Text = Format("TB" & i, "mm/dd/yy")
If i = 3, this gives me in TextBox3 (which is called TB3) the text 'TB3' and not the value of what is in TB3. It has got to bo something simple, I just can't see it!!!
I have a userform with 5 textboxes. Each textbox looks for certain kinds of user entry...my code has trouble in re-locating the cursor to the SAME textbox after rejecting the user entry. And BTW, ideally the text box would be highlited in this instance.
Private Sub TextBox2_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean) Dim okstop As Boolean Dim yesno_continue As Boolean Dim mytext As String okstop = False Do TextBox2.SetFocus TextBox2.SelStart = 0 mytext = TextBox2.Value If Not IsDate(mytext) And mytext <> "" Then TextBox2.Value = "" yesno_continue = MsgBox("Please enter a date...try again?", vbYesNo) TextBox2.SetFocus Else okstop = True End If Loop Until (yesno_continue = vbNo) Or (okstop = True) End Sub
In my Excel VBA user form, there are multiple instances of the MS DTPicker control, which feed multiple text boxes. These in turn are linked to named cells on an worksheet. Note at this stage please that dates will not always be required, hence the text boxes. Only the button on the DTP controls are visible, alongside the related textbox.
My problem is that the values in the cells are in US date format and I need them to be recognised in the UK date format. The dates therein must be formatted as dates (ie not as text), as they are used throughout other worksheets for calculations. In the sample below, DTPickerDateOfIncorporation is the named cell (the control source). I know from Roy's responses to other questions on the DTPicker that he doesn't use it - is there a better alternative?
I inherited a spreadsheet and the date validation does not work. It checks for the formatting of the date being entered, and when anything is entered is returns the pop-up error message. so even when a correctly formatted date is typed into the cell the error message prevents the user from entering the new date. I have checked and cannot find the problem. I even tried formatting the cell with Crtl-1 to ensure the date being entered was formatted right, but still does not work.
This is the code snippet for three columns I am working with:
I have userform In that Twotextbox Need to be Pickdate from Popupcalender..while placing cursor on Textbox1 and textbox2 it popup shows Pickupcalender.... I tried with different code still failed
Go to sheet Repor Wizard Form ,Click Report filter & Export cmd button
I need to confirm that a date is entered correctly into a userform.
This code works for a command button, but not for a WorkSheet_Change event.
My textbox is the first in the userform, and needs to be checked immediately, as the labels in the rest of the userform all change to reflect the date that was entered.
What is the best way to do this? I tried a keycode = vbKeyReturn option, but cannot get it to work?
Code: Private Sub DateCheck() Dim DateString As String Dim DateProper As Date Dim EntryOK As Boolean EntryOK = False
I want to be able to filter on an excel spreadsheet by dates between x and y. The values x and y are each in my userform textboxes, tbStart and tbEnd.
For whatever reason there seems to be a format issue. When I run the script I see that the data is filled correctly in the filtering fields but I don't see any results. I simply need to click ok when reviewing the filter and it works. This makes me think that there is something wrong with the format of my tbStart.Value and tbEnd.Value
Here are the variations I have tried:
The values on their own should always be formatted as date in the text box as I am using spin buttons to edit the date with this code or similar
I have a form that will allow the user to type in a date. I need to take that value and validate that it is between 01/01/2007 and 10 years ahead of the current day.
