DropDown Box Fills Cell Corresponding Column

Jul 18, 2007

I've created a drop down box which displays a list of headings for columns. The user enters the total for that heading in that column and then a total column sums all the entries for that row. However, I wanted to simplify it so that the user just enters the total and then selects the column heading from a drop down list and then the value entered in the total column is automatically entered into the column corresponding to that heading in the drop down box as well. I've attached a jpg which should give you an idea of what I'm talking about.

The values in column E are the ones the user enters, I then want these values to be put into the corresponding row based on what they select in the drop down box in column F

Dropdown List Selection Fills Two Cells

Dec 26, 2008

how to create drop down lists which is making a sales forecast template for my small company look pretty jazzy. Of course, now I want more out of it and can't figure it out.

I successfully added a drop down list for a sales person to pick a supplier, let's say their selection populates cell E4. Once selected, the next cell over (F4) gives them another drop down list with the products made by that particular supplier. The next cell over (G4) is in a column titled "Unit Cost", how can I make the Unit Cost cell populate automatically when the product selection is made in F4?

NOTE: My "lists" are on Sheet 1 along with my working spreadsheet. I have a Suppliers List, Products List (for each supplier), and anticipate I will need a Price List for each Product List, right?

Once I finish the spreadsheet can I cut and paste all the data to sheet 2 (I put it 100 rows below my spreadsheet to hide it)?

Recording Macro So That It Fills Next Blank Cell

Oct 29, 2013

I'm trying to record a macro that is using vlookups to get data from another data sheet, this data sheet will update each month - the old data moving back a column (so the new data is filled into the same column each time).

However, on the sheet where i am recording the macro, i need the data to fill in the next column each time.

I have recorded the below:

Sub Colourants()
'
' Colourants Macro
'
'
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-30
Range("AK3").Select

[Code] .......

How do I get it so it doesn't record in cell 'AK' all the time but the next empty column each time it's run (however, it will always run from row 3).

VBA Code To Color Cell When Certain Criteria Fills Cell

Feb 18, 2007

In column "L" there is the possibility to have one of the following characters entered as a key for that specific row;
G
X
B
G1
G2
S
Y
H
SB1
SB2
They all have a unique color assigned to them. There are too many for conditional formatting, so I think the way to resolve this is to use VBA. Can I ask for some assistance to get me started?

Dual Column Dropdown Where Only One Column Populates The Cell

Apr 19, 2012

I've been trying to solve with a 2 column drop down. What I am hoping to do is use two columns to aid the user in selecting the correct entry. So the first column will be a number and the second column would contain what the number means

If:
Col1 | Col2
001 | Horse
002 | Cow
003 | Dog

Both columns show when the list is selected, but when the user selects 003 | Dog, the cell would be populated with only the 003.

Sort Data. And Automatically Fills

Feb 2, 2010

Scenario: You have two columns in a spreadsheet. Column A is a text input and column B is a tracking number for each row. Using the ISTEXT statement, I had it configured so that when a cell in column B recognized a TRUE statement in an adjoining cell in column A it would then assign a number. B1 is assigned a number when A1 has text.

What I would like to happen is build the spreadsheet so that after the user enters text in column A, column B automatically fills in so that the user doesn't have to manually enter it. I've figured out how to do this if the data is never sorted, however, if you sort the data then the tracking numbers don't follow and are really a mess.

Is there a way to auto fill column B and at the same time, make it so that the tracking number that is originally assigned to the row follows with A when sorted?
I've tried using =MAX but run into circular reference issues.

I just want a simple autofill to keep from honking up my ST hours/OT hours... if you enter 6 days with a simple cell*cell formula you can get 48 hours ST and that just won't do...

How do I formulate so that when I enter in the days it automatically fills in the list hours I have for reference?

Days - ST - OT
1 8 4
2 16 8

Autofilling Next Empty Row Doesn't Work (only Fills Out With 1)

Dec 9, 2013

I'm trying to create a code that autofills the next empty row in colum A with a number. What I have at the moment is:

'Create Index in Transaction list
x = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Value
Sheets("Transaction list").Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = x + 1

If I run this code in isolation from the rest of my code (which is copying and pasting values from one sheet to another) it works, but when I run the full code it only autofills the rows with "1".

Insert A Dropdown List In Column

May 1, 2008

On my worksheet I am trying to insert a dropdown list in column B and the options available in this list are dependent on what is selected from another dropdown list in column A.

I have another spreadsheet in which I have done exactly the same thing. In this first sheet I use the methodology in column B of through Data Validation allowing a List and setting the Data Validation Source as =INDIRECT(“L”&A2) where L refers to my possible selection of lists for column B (these lists are called L1, L2, L3, L4 etc and have been defined as such). This then generates a list of options in the cell B2 dropdown list dependent on what the text is in A2. This A2 value has also been selected from a list.

Now – when I tried to use exactly the same methodology in my new sheet IT DOES NOT work – AARRGGHH !!! When I select a value from the list in column A, then go to the dropdown list in column B there are no options to choose from – it is as if the dropdown filter in column B has become inactive. The selection downwards arrow is there, but when I click on it.

ComboBox Selection That Fills A TextBox And Other ComboBox

Sep 28, 2013

I created a UserForm then linked ComboBox1 to range A2:A, TextBox2 to range E2:E, and ComboBox3 to range M2:M of the same worksheet, named Sheet3. The row contents in Column A, Column E, and Column M are associated. Therefore, when the UserForm is active I want to be able to select a row from Column A in ComboBox1 and have the UserForm pull the contents from the same row of Column E into TextBox2, and Column M into ComboBox3. Here is what I have so far, but its not quite doing it.

Code:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Sheets("Sheet3").Activate
Dim ColARange As Range

Add A New Column Of Data To The Results Displayed When Selecting From A Dropdown Box

Feb 3, 2010

I have a dropdown box to choose a category.
When the category is chosen it displays the relevant course names which corresponds to that category (this could be 1 course up to 10 different courses).
Along with that course name it gives the relevant course overview.

This works exactly how i want it to. (thanks to Zbor from a previous thread)

I now want to expand further and give the corresponding course objectives for each course that shows up in the results.

I have attached a workbook as its much easier to see the dropdown box working.

Sheet 2 is the working sheet and sheet 1 will contain all the source data.
I have highlighted the columns affected in Blue Blue column on sheet 1 will have the course objectives on the same line as the course they belong to Blue column on sheet 2 is where they will be displayed when the correct category selection is made.

The course objectives are unique to the course title and course overview.

Dynamic Dropdown List Based On Column Filter?

Jun 9, 2014

I have a spread sheet that has three sheets, PROJECTS - TIMES - LISTS Time sheet.xlsx PROJECTS contains a list of 'In Progress' and 'completed' projects for work, with relevant other data, I.e. PROJECT No. / STATUS etc This will grow to 1,000's of rows TIMES will contain the amount of time a person spends on a PROJECT on a daily basis. This will grow to 10,000's of rows LISTS contain basic validation list for the first 2 sheets.

Part A
I would like to have a validation drop down list for the PROJECT NO column in the TIMES sheet that only lists the PROJECT NO from the PROJECTS sheet where STATUS <> COMPLETED. I.e. I only want to display the PROJECT NO's for current projects.

Part B
Even though I only want the PROJECT NO used, can the drop down list also contain other column's data for reference information only before one is selected.

Automatically Filter Date Column Based On Dropdown Of Month

Sep 18, 2012

I want to be able to show only the dates whose months are selected in the drop down in cell A1. I've been able to do this with a Macro that I must run every time I change A1; however, I was wondering if there was a way to have the macro done automatically. I've been trying the Worksheet_Change options with little command. In addition to all of the If/Thens, I've also tried the If/ElseIfs as well:

VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$A$2" Then

If Target = "January" Then
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$2:$C$14").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:= _
xlFilterAllDatesInPeriodJanuary, Operator:=xlFilterDynamic

Change Sign Of Number Based On Validation Dropdown In Another Column

Feb 21, 2014

This spreadsheet will be tracking sales and purchases. I want to be able to have any purchases formatted as an expenditure (negative sign or brackets) to show it is money out. Column C "Action" has a drop down with either Buy (infrequent) or Sell. I want to be able to have column I "Unit Price" be a negative number if the corresponding cell in the same row in Column C = "Buy". I do not have these prices formatted as currency as their are 2 different currency used and I don't know how to make the correct currency format appear automatically, though I do have a drop down validation column for which currency the transaction was in, so maybe that is possible. I know this is probably simple, but I don't spend that much time using Excel. I have some sample data in their for the moment.
