View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make some of my data validation dropdown list boxes narrower. I was told one way to do that is to use combo boxes. (If there are any other ways, please let me know!)
I don't think my combo boxes are working. I had tried to make a combo box appear in each data validation pulldown cell by using this tutorial:
http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal10.html
I followed this tutorial word for word, but when I try to test the code at the end by double-clicking on a data validation pulldown cell, no combo box appears.
I have some code to remove the formulas from all sheets prior to emailing the workbook.
The code does remove the formula, but when I try to select a single cell (IE deselect the copy/paste range), I get an error 1004... "Select Method of Range Class Failed".
This error persists with any use of "Select", or "Activate"...
"Application.Goto Reference" works, but only on the first sheet, and not on subsequent sheets.
The code used/tried is;
'Remove formulas
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
With ws
.UsedRange.Copy
.UsedRange.PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
.Range("A3").Select
'.Range("A3").Activate
'.Cells(3, 1).Select
'.Cells(3, 1).Activate
'Application.Goto Reference:="R3C1"
.Range("C1").Value = CommName
.Protect (Password)
End With
Next ws
why ".Select" & ".Activate" methods fail? (this seems like the logical way to do this), or alternative ways to deselect the active range?
I want to deselect a particular range of cells, I tried finding the solution posted on other threads I founded the following which din't worked for me:
Application.selection = False
( Its placing the text False in Cells )
Application.CutCopymode = False
( I don't need this as I am not copy pasting anything)
A common process is to select one or more entire rows. Is there a way wth VBA after working on the slected row or rows to have curosr drop below the last row and select just the next row eg. I selected entire row 1045 then when done the cursor will drop down one row and select row 1046. However, if on rows 1045, 1046 and 1047 that the cursor would drop down and select row 1048.

I do that with the statement Listbox1.listindex=-1. I hope that is the right thing to do. However, the elements that originally were selected are still blue-coloured, like they became when the user selected them. How do I do to make them look deselected?
It also seems to me that the array Listbox1.selected(x) still holds the value "true" for elements that were selected. Is it so that in addition to say listbox1.listindex=-1, you have to loop through the elements in listbox1 and set all of them to false?
how I can, in a formulae, identify the last item(s) in a list of values. For example I have data in rows 1-25 with numeric data in. I want to put a formula in, say, row 100 that averages the last three data items above in the same column, but the number of data items will increase over time to use row 26, 27, etc. and I don't want to change the formula in row 100.

I am tring to loop through the ListBox to check each name in the ListBox, so ifthe name chosen by the ComboBox exists in the ListBox then donot add it,
but both codes do check the number of the item in the ListBox.
I need to check the name of the item?
With ListBox1
For i = 1 To ListBox1.Value
If i = ComboBox1.Value Then MsgBox "u cannot add this item"
Exit Sub
Next i
For i = LBound(ListBox1.List) To UBound(ListBox1.List)
If i = ComboBox1.Value Then MsgBox " u cannot add this item"
Exit Sub
Next i
.AddItem tot.Value
.List(.ListCount - 1, 1) = ComboBox1.Value

I am trying to automate the creation of 3 pivot tables. At first I was having a problem with deselecting all items in the drop-down except one, then I found the code to fix it.
I replaced this code:
ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable15").PivotFields( _
"Beta")
.PivotItems("Escalated").Visible = False
.PivotItems("Hang Up").Visible = False
.PivotItems("New Hire Requests").Visible = False
.PivotItems("No Trouble Found").Visible = False
.PivotItems("Priority Exchange").Visible = False
[code].....
This fixed the problem, but there are still two other pivot tables that need to be created after this first one. I scrolled down through the code and deleted the other code blocks for the selection of the PivotItems and replaced it with the code above, but then when I ran it I got the "Compile Error: Duplicate Declaration in current scope".
I read more through the forum and realize that it's because VBA is dimensioning it twice, and I read that you're supposed to Dimension at the beginning of your program, but how do I implement this into my coding?
I can't dimension literally at the start of the code, there is some formatting that needs to take place first. (Basically I paste in a bunch of data into Sheet1 of my workbook, center it, space it out, then insert a pivot table into the pre-existing Sheet2 based on that data, filtered on the blank entries in Column N. Then I need to create ANOTHER pivot table based on that same data in Sheet1, but filtered on the blank entries in Column O. Then I center the words in the Pivot tables' headers in Sheet2, and finally I need to create one last pivot table on pre-existing Sheet3 based on the data on Sheet1, filtered for 2 specific entry types in Column N.)
How do I add a "comment" to an item of a drop-down list? I've got several items and every item has its own comment. I dont know how to do this.

I had this posted in Formulas and functions
I would like to perform an operation on each filtered range. To do this I need some kind of loop which would enable each item in the auto filler. I dont know how to do this. The loop i need is to enable one item, do operation (ex sum of visible rows --> i already have a code for that) then disable that currently visible range and enable next one, perform sum operation again.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am looking to return a sequential list of items which match to an element of text that I have selected. An example will explain what I want better.
Item Selected Tom
Ref AmountTom C 32206 3683Tom B 36212 34464Frank 10552 43642Mary 13228 30534Tom A 30694 35798Mary B 9121 27489
So I want a Formula which will return the Reference for items in column A which contain the word Tom.So the Result I want is:Selected
Tom C 32206 3683Tom B 36212 34464Tom A 30694 35798
The formula I have to return an item containing Tom is:
=INDEX($A$5:$A$10,MATCH("*"&$B$2&"*",$A$5:$A$10,0))
But this only returns the first Tom and no other.The Formula I have to return sequential items with exact reference:
=INDEX($B$4:$B$11, SMALL(INDEX(($B$2=$A$4:$A$11)*(MATCH(ROW($A$4:$A$11), ROW($A$4:$A$11)))+($B$2$A$4:$A$11)*1048577, 0, 0), ROW($A1)))
This will (if I change the row reference at the end) return all Tom C's (If I change B2 to "Tom C") in sequential order but only the Tom C's and not the other Tom's (Tom B and Tom A). I have tried replacing the $B$2 with "*"&$B$2&"*" but that doesn't seem to work.
I have a budget document that has a selection (Named Range with list items in a drop down) Approved, Rejected, Awaiting Approval or Blank. What I would like to do is set a process that could approve all Awaiting Approval. My thought was to create another choice box at the top that allowed the user to choose approve all awaiting and it would select every matching item that was Awaiting Approval and change it to Approved. At the same time I would like it to set the date and time, this could just copy what I put in an associated field or be real time.

I've in a sheet something like this:

Number Item
2 Apples
1 Orange
2 PineApple
5 Orange
1 Apple
I need to do a code to get how many Apples Orange, PinneApple or somethig is in the range
For Example:
3 Apples
6 Orange
1 PinneApple
The items are variable. It's starts in the second row, and finish in the next blank row.
The below is causing me an issue as it is setting the ws value to equal nothing instead of sheet1 or sheet2 etc. I have my dimensions set above and there are no spelling mistakes.
It falls down on the
VB : Set LastRow = ws.Range("a65536").End(xlUp)
line but this seems to happen because ws is set to nothing.
VB:
For iramp2 = 0 To ListBox1.ListCount - 1
If ListBox1.Selected(iramp2) Then
Set ws = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet" & iramp2)
End If

I am a softball coach and I want to create a fielding roster for my team. I have all the players names in column A (A4:A14). I have positions listed in column L (L4:L15) as follows: P, C, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, LF, LC, CF, RC, RF, X. Cell range B4:H14 (7 innings) is where I need to have drop downs, but once I select a certain positions for one player in inning 1, for ex., I want it to not be available for the next player in the same inning.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI created a drop down list (of various Input Groups) and I need to show the selected group's responsibilities on a separate sheet; is there an easy way to do this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedYou can find attached the workbook I am working on.
In my workbook I have four sheets. Only two sheets are relevant in this case: "Sheet1" and "List". On "Sheet1" there in column A there is big range of codenumbers (highlighted with red).
On the "List" worksheet I have a smaller list (highlighted with green).
I have a code also in module1 but the code is not working.
I would like my macro to do the following. Check the code number from the "List" worksheet (green) and search for it in "Sheet1" column A (red). If this codnumber can be found in column A then leave the number on the green list. If it cannot be found in column A then, delete it from the green list. If you open the file, you can see on the "List" worksheet that there are three code numbers in the green range. The upper and the bottom code number can be found on the "Sheet1" column A (red) range, but the middle number cannot be found. So if the macro would work correctly then it would delete the middle number, and leave the other two untouched!
Searching a text string on Sheet 1 to see if it contains any item in a list (on Sheet 2 Column 1) and if so return the value of Sheet 2 Column 2 next to the list item found?
It's a budget problem: Sheet 1 has my downloaded Visa statements. I want to categorise all items.
Eg Any item containing the string 'safeway' is categorised as 'General expenses'. So the list on Sheet 2 has an item called 'safeway' and in the next column 'General expenses'.
And for the item on Sheet 1 'BPAYN BUPA AUSTRALIA BPAY MBF monthly' I have an item in Sheet 2 that is simply 'BUPA' with category 'Medical expenses'.
I'm looking for click event code for a list box called lbActiveItemList that finds a match for the selected record in Column 1, to the Sheet ReturnData in Column A from row 6 on (using the G column to find the last row). Upon finding a match it should close the userform, and make the G cell for the matching record the Active Cell.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI wrote a macro that creates a data validation list from a set of cells on Sheet 1.
On Sheet two I would like a have Macro select each item in order on the validation list and paste into every fourth cell.
For example, if my Data Validation list on Sheet 1 contains three items: Comp. A, COmp. B, Comp. C
On Sheet 2, I would like to see Comp. A in cell K1, Comp. B in cell O1, Comp. C in cell S1.
I have seen a few codes but nothing that works effectively.
I have two cells and both have a drop down list. I would like Excel to automatically select an item from the second drop-down list based on the manual selection of the first drop-down list. The second cell needs the have the dependent item appear in the second cell not just be available in the drop-down list.
For example, Cell A1 has a drop-down lsit of the names of fruits, vegetables and flowers (apples, bananas, carrots, carnations, corn, daisys, tomatoes, zuchinni). Cell B1 has another drop down with three items (fruits, vegetables & flowers) which needs to be dependent on the first list. Further, I would like cell B1 to automatically select the appropriate item.
For example, if "carrots" is selected in cell A1 then I would like "vegetables" to be selected and automatically appear in cell B1. If "carnations" is selected in cell A1 then I would like "flowers" to appear (not just be available in the drop down).
http://home.comcast.net/~unkerjay/CSBG_Sheet.xls
in it, there's a Sheet named:
CSBG Report
which has a drop down list for all possible reports
beginning with "Jan".
There's also a "Totals" sheet which has the corresponding
information for each report totaled in separate columns.
Jan, for instance is totaled in column B.
Feb, is totaled in column C.
And so on.
What I'd like to be able to do, is, depending on
the report selected, to have the information in
the corresponding cells in the "CSBG Reports" Sheet
pulled from the appropriate column in the "Totals" Sheet.
So far, I'm not wrapping my mind around a way to
do this.
Suppose I have a department List, and I made a list from that column (Department List), and I enter more staff and selected a department for them during registering, now one of the Department List Item change, How is it possible to change all the entry which has that department?

I have a normal data validation box on excel, but I want to be able to navigate my way through it using a macro. I can select & opent the drop down list with the following
SendKeys "%{DOWN}"
but then an action like
SendKeys "{UP}"
Does not navigate itself up the menu as a normal keystoke would. Any ideas on how to solve this? Basically, I want to select a cell, open the drop down menu, select the first choice in it (so thinking SendKeys "{HOME}{ENTER}" ) all using a macro.
Is there a limit to the number of entries in a validation list? I have a list that contains about 300 entries, but the drop-down list only shows 246 entries. I am sure that the references are correct.
