Dropdown List With User Response Type-in
May 18, 2007
I know how to create a basic dropdown list, but what I don't know (I don't even know if it is possible to do at all) is how to allow user type-in response if the "Other (please specify)" option is used.
Column A
Question 1. What type of report are you using?
Column B will contain
Type I Report
Type II Report
Other (please specify)
If Type I or II is chosen from the list, I don't want user to be able to change anything. But If the Other (please specify) option is selected I would like to give user an ability to type in type of the report he/she is using. Also, is there a way to have list options chosen based on another list response?

Trying to Have a User Pick A response from the first drop down list before the second is activated and then after they choose from that list have an error message appear if the vlookup formula returns a #N/A. Here is the code in it's entirety the problem area is in the Elseif Pipe category Right now it doesn't bug but it also doesn't wait for a choice to be made it just spits out all the messages
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel. Range)
Dim Add As String, Size As String, Sch As String
With Range("c11:c52"). Validation
.Delete
.Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Operator:= _
xlBetween, Formula1:="=MaterialList"
.IgnoreBlank = True
.InCellDropdown = True
.InputTitle = ""
.ErrorTitle = ""
.InputMessage = ""
.ErrorMessage = ""
.ShowInput = True
.ShowError = False
End With

I have a list of items in column A ("Questions"). Let's use 3 for this example.
I have seven respondent GROUPS, represented by a column.At the intersection of each QUESTION and each GROUP, a number appears, indicating the most popular answer to that question expressed as a number from 1-6, or BLANK if no response was the most popular answer.So the data looks like this:
Group1
Group2
Group3
Group4
Group5
Group6
Group7
Q1text
1
5
5
3
[Code] .....
Now... the part that will seem upside down...I want this sheet to allow the user to specify a GROUP and a RESPONSE ID (1-6) to produce a LIST of QUESTIONS that will be used as the contents of a dynamic dropdown.For example, if the user selected GROUP6, RESPONSE4, I'd like the dropdown to contain:
Q1Text
Q4Text
If the user selected GROUP1, RESPONSE1, I'd like the dropdown to contain:
Q2Text
Q4Text
It is not possible for the RESPONSE selection to be "Blank", though blanks do appear amongst responses.
I can't get solutions to switch dynamically based on the selected GROUP.

In which control of vba can I show output of my work to a user of the program? But there is a trick here. In the output form, I need to ask something to the user so that I can proceed. (I need to put a few labels and a text box in the output form)

I would like to be able to limit a drop down list's contents based on a user's selection in a different drop down. I am using Excel 2003, and I know how to do this in Access, but I can't figure it out in Excel. Basically, I have a list of themes in one drop down. The user picks a theme, and goes to a second drop down which is a list of sub-themes attributable to that one theme and no other theme.

I have the following code:
Code:
Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
Dim pw As String
If CheckBox1 = True Then
pw = InputBox("Enter password")
[Code] ....
How can I make it give three chances to user to type the password, and if still not correct then it should close the file without saving.

I am currently working in an application in which I use the following user defined types:
Public Type correlationstruct
corr As Variant
corrstd As Variant
lower As Variant
upper As Variant
support As Variant
End Type
I have a public variable called myctafund, of type ctafund:
Public myctafund As ctafund
My problem is the following: When I need to update myctafund, I first want to clean it entirely before putting new values, so as to be sure older values do not stick around (I do not necessarily overwrite all the values of the mycta type).I can't figure out a way of clearing the entire myctafund variable in one shot. I tried:
myctafund=empty
but I am granted by a nasty excel error. I'd like to avoid writing 200 lines of code just to clean the entire variable.

I have an array with structure, i.e. User Defined Type. Assume the user defined type has two elements: Element1 and Element2 and array name is Array.
So the definition is:
Dim Array(1 To 10) As UserType
and access to elements is
Array(5).Element1
The problem is that I need to pass the whole set of Element1 or Element2 to a function. Should it have been two separate arrays, it would not be a problem. But because of the user defined structure I have no idea how to pass a single element.
I hope there is another solution rather than to use loops. I have many arrays like this with complex structures. I simply can not replicate all of them.

I am trying to figure out how to create a "User-Defined" enumerated type typically used in other languages (other than VBA).
for example in Java a typical enum type is declared like this:
enum Season { WINTER, SPRING, SUMMER, FALL }
This gives the benefit of writing "readable" code.
(back to vb)
If Season SUMMER then
call wear_a_sweater
end if

I want to force my user to input a date in a userform. I have a normal Textbox and assumed i'd be able to set the properties to mean that imput had to be an integer and the format had to be "00/00/00" but I can't see how to do this.

I'm trying to set up a diet/training spreadsheet so that when a client enters foods and exercises they don't want/can't do, those foods and exercises are made unavailable in dropdown menus (on my programming sheet) so that I can't inadvertently put them into their plans. I have a webform they fill out, which automatically puts the data into a spreadsheet and I know how to pull data from there into the clients' workbooks...

The code below adds the date to D:D once the user enters data in B:B and then adds the time when the user selects from a dropdown in C:C. When they have finished the task they enter anything into F:F and then it enters the end time in G:G.
This works well except for one flaw and one modification that I can't get to work. I have found that people retrospectively change the activity in C:C which causes the start time to change. I would like to avoid this hapenning if possible by putting some code in to stop this. Also I would like the times to be related to the push of a button on the sheet and therefore need different code.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B2:B900")) Is Nothing Then
With Target(1, 3)
.Value = Date
[Code] ......

I'm creating a spreadsheet to keep track of my costs of production in an online game. Within the game there are a range of spawned resources that appear for only a short time before being unobtainable these resources have specific types that is shared between multiple spawns of the resource but each resource spawn has a unique name.
My first worksheet lists all the resources and their various qualities and the later worksheets are meant to allow me to choose from a list resources matching the requirements of the item I'm looking to craft. The example i have shown in the second picture requires Tatooinian Fiberplast and Lokian Wild Wheat to craft so in the Chosen Resource column I would like to have a drop down list allowing me to select the named resource type i would like to use - for Tatooinian Fiberplast the only thing on the list should be Omnitwixi and for the Wild Wheat it should show Fizi and Krad

Is there a way to create a drop down list from a comma delimited list in a single cell? For example, col A is Name & Col B is the delimited list - Blue,Red,Green (list can be different for each name). Would like a drop down list in col C that allows you to pick one of the values from Col B.

I found code online that I can put on my sheet to get my formatting properties to stay the same for the items in my dropdown list located on another page. However the code does not work for conditional formatted cells...which is what I need. This is the code that I have that will carry over regular formatted cells. Just not Conditional formatted cells.

Trying to convert an Excel 2003 macro to work in Excel 2007.
The problem line is

Is this the one it needs? It is called something else in 2007?

I am using Microsoft Excel 2010 and Microsoft VBA 7.0 on my system. I would like to eventually create a PowerPoint and insert charts generated in the Excel workbook. In the meantime, I cannot get the basic PowerPoint created.
The line in red is highlighted blue when the compile error "User-defined type not defined" message box appears.
Public Sub TryAgain() Dim myPowerPoint As PowerPoint.Application
'
' do nothing for now
'End Sub
I have set the references such that Microsoft Project 14.0 Object Library is indeed checked. The Excel file only contains this code in a module. All sheets are blank. Nothing else is written yet.

I'm trying to use data validation to restrict the user to only selecting values in a list which I create. Right now, the list is a named range. I'd like to get rid of the range and just use a named list. I create a name using the following as my list.
Insert > Name > Create
Name: Fruit
Refers to:
banana,apple,orange
When I try to use the name Fruit in my data validation, I get the message "The List Source must be a delimited list, or a reference to single row or column." I thought my name "fruit" was a delimited list.

I have 3 related dropdown lists that work perfectly, if you enter data from left to right. But, if you click in the cell containing the second list, which is based on the first list, of which nothing has been selected, you can just type any value in the cell. Is there a way to prevent this, or at least validate that what is entered is a value in the list.

I have a spreadsheet that has a long list of charges... some of those charges have multiple codes attached to them... when this happens I am wanting to group them together and let the user pick which one they want to view at one time.
Here is a very small example of what exactly I am referring to... with charge #14 I am wanting it to combine and let the user pick between 2565 and 2566. The problem is that the values can range and will not always be 2565 & 2566 and there is 10,000 + records similar to this.

fill the column "Level 2 Area" based on the value selected from "Level 1 Area" which is coming from a drop down list. So the "Level 2 Area" will be a drop down list also based on the selected value from the drop down list from "Level 1 Area".
Level 1 Area
Level 2 Area
