I plan to place a drop down list (combo box) in a WS where I upon selection of one item from that list will move me to the place in the same WS where the item selected is to be found. Hyperlinks are a theory, but the WS is protected and will stay protected. A drop down is preferred.
I haven't worked with this topics for quite some time and might have forgotten some basics.
I am trying to accomplish is to display a dropdown or combobox with a list of choices. I want the backcolor to be shaded light green to match instructional text that appears in the cell above. That I have working with the selections appearing. Once a choice is made I want a separate procedure to run that will somehow know which choice was made.
I can't put the code within the module for this particular sheet as it is dynamically recreated each time the data is refreshed and the code will disappear. This may seem to be an odd practice but this is how 25+ workbooks are coded within this system for my employer's customer and it is a required practice.
Excel Userform
VB:
'enables user to click [U]highlight and select[/U] an item in ListBox1 and ListBox2 item (same row in index) is also [U]highlighted[/U] (highlighted only not selected)
Private Sub ListBox1_Click()
ListBox2.ListIndex = ListBox1.ListIndex
End Sub
Question: Is it also possible to enable a user to click to select an item in ListBox1 and ListBox2 item is also selected simultaneously (same row in index). Is there excel vb code to do this?
I think the code may be along the lines of the ListBox SelectedIndex property. What would be the Excel VB code equivilant for the ListBox SelectedIndex property, if so?
I am getting close to finishing the drop down menu capability when filling in column L in tab Transactions. However, there is a snag. When I enter part of account say "fin" (the important part here is that the part of the word should not be the beginning of the account name) - then I select an account from the menu - but it does not stay in the cell if the part of the name is the beginning of the account name - all is fine.
View 4 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!
I'm trying to create a drop down list which returns values based on what has been selected in the previous drop down list in the adjacent cell, e.g. if 'Apples' is selected in the previous cell then you should only be able to select from 'Gala, Granny Smith', or if 'Oranges' is selected you should only be able to select 'Seville, Blood Orange'. Is there a formula which would do this, or can I use a pivot table somehow? I'm totally stumped.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI need to have a drop down list which displays a different set of values depending upon the value selected by a previous drop down list. ie. (drop down box 1)= x, y, z. (drop down box 2)= either x1, x2, x3, or y1, y2, y3, or z1, z2, z3. I can produce a single drop down box thats not a problem but linking several drop down boxes is beyond me .

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.
I have a list of 20 cities in K1:20 and they can be selected from a drop down menu in column A2:A22. I want then to randomly pick 6 out of 20 and these 6 cities must to appear in a line A1, B1, C1, D1, F1, and G1
On cell A1 I have used the
IF ( A2=K1,K1, IF(A3=K1,K1...................A22=K1,K1,IF(A2=K2,K2......A22=K3,K3)
It seem to be an endless formula is there another way to make it easy ???
I am struggling with work-schedule worksheet and I want to do this:
In my attached sample worksheet are cells coresponding to a day of the month (monday to sunday, and so on...), and cell for job positions. Each day I must assign 5 employees to a different job position (job positions are on drop down lists).
When I select first job (on specific day), I want a pop-up window where would show what job I have allready selected and what job hasn't been selected so far.
How can I do that, is It possible in VBA coding, maybe with Listbox or CheckedListbox.

I have a couple of listboxes and use the mouseup event to do stuff with the row that's clicked.
When a new listbox is clicked I'd like to remove the highlighting or selection from the last one.
I thought this would do it

Is there another way?

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 2 Replies View RelatedI've created and coded a vba userform that creates purchase orders for my projects. The user begins by selecting the project code from the combobox (the project code is a unique identifier of each project). Once the purchase order is created, the information is logged in a separate sheet called "POLog" and the userform is cleared. The project code is saved in the first column of the "POLog".
My problem is that when I have more than one purchase order to create for the same project (sometimes I have 20 or 30), the combobox starts out empty and I have to manually select the project code from the combobox. Is there a way to allow the userform to recall the last project code that was used? Maybe recalling it from the last row in the "POLog" sheet?
It seems that when reloading a listbox (in my case in ppt, but triggered from vba in excel) the ppt application (office 2010) was not highlighting the selected row in the listbox, and was infact also losing the selected row information when the item lost focus.
indication in excel that new data is to be displayed
triggers macro in ppt to fetch data and update:-
1. select the userform and listbox
2. fetch the data from excel worksheet range into a local array
3. save locally the current selected index in the listbox
4. reload the data into the listbox and adjust column widths
5. relocate the old selected item, and set the new selected index
Summary of key Code lines which did not work:

So in summary, if you get problems with listbox selected items not being highlighted, double check you are not re-defining column widths after loading the data into the list.....
I have a userform that search for a value in column A, it displays the results in the listbox. Example: Search for value "111" and it brings me back the following results back in the listbox "111 David 35". So this means 3 columns matching data is returned.
I want the following to happen if I double click on the item in the listbox it needs to update the value selected in the worksheet eg. strikethrough the row on the sheet to show item has been selected/done.

to display a combobox when I double click any cell that contains a validation list in it. I'm not great with VBA so I am having problems finding what each part of the code does. This is causing problems for another bit of code that I use to display a msgbox when certain values are selected from the list.
The MsgBox shows up great when I select an item from the validation list but does not work at all when I select the same item from the double-clicked combo box.

I have a problem in populating 2 combo boxes in my excel sheet, where in the later one is dependent on the first combo box.
The source for these 2 combo boxes exists in another workbook in the same sheet.
The sample data is as below
Folder NameWorkflow Name
AUDIT wkf_eval_update
AUDIT wkf_eval_cf_update
AUDIT wkf_eval_correct
EPG wkf_epg_aud_tmplt
EPG wkf_epg_audit
I have created two dynamic named ranges namely FolderName (refers to B column which has lot of duplicates) and WorkflowName(refers to C column).
For the first combobox, the dynamic named range FolderName is the source. So combobox 1 is populated with 2 values AUDIT, EPG. Here, my intention is "when i select AUDIT from combobox 1, then combobox 2 should be populated with the 3 values which corresponds AUDIT in the source worksheet.
