I have created a userform where I have a combo box and an options box. I want the combo box to reference a specific list of values. And if the check box is selected, I want the same combo box to reference a different list of values. This is the present syntax I am using. For some reason, The value of the check box does not alter the list in my macro.
Private Sub Userform_Initialize()
If chkHeader.Value = True Then
cmbSort1.Clear
With cmbSort1
.AddItem Range("A1")
.AddItem Range("B1")
.AddItem Range("C1")
I am trying to use code here to facilitate "cascading" comboboxes. However, my comboboxes are in a worksheet, not a userform and I am unsure which bits of the syntax are incorrect.
Currently I am stuck at " . . . . . For I = nr + 1 To N Controls("ComboBox" & I).Clear . . . . "
The error message tells me that "Sub or Function not defined."
I think (??) the Controls function relates to User Forms, not activex and worksheets, but I don't know what to replace it with or how to alter the syntax.
what i need to do is display a list of items, with a dropdown box next to each item. the dropdown boxes are identical. for each item in the list (e.g. each musician), the user should be able to select an item from the box ("percussion", "horn", "string").
my problem is that the number of items in the list is not set, so the list of name labels, dropdown boxes, etc needs to be generated dynamically. is it possible to generate a list of labels/dropdown boxes using a loop? (as i understand it, this would involve writing code to write code.)
I am creating a Userform and one of the elements on it is a combobox where the user has to select their name. On the same Userform, I want to have a textbox (or listbox or another combo box if necessary) which will show the users default cost centre based on the initial combobox selection. I've tried doing this various ways, but I can't get the textbox to update when the combobox selection changes.
I have a form (the main one) which accesses a second form, which accesses a third form. All forms have a combo box, control button and a text box.
The items selected in the control boxes are entered into cells (the base cells) in the spreadsheet, via “Control Source”. The text boxes access these cells and show the selected items, which are then copied to other cells via a macro on activating the control button in the main form.
The main form stays open while other items are selected and transferred. Some of the items may not be changed (reselected) as they may be common. The problem is that after a number of items have been selected and transferred, the base cells for the second and third text boxes do not update after a selection from the combo boxes, and they continue to show a previously selected item.
The problem can be solved by closing the 2nd and 3rd forms and starting again. What can I do keep the cells updating without closing the form down?
I am looking for some code that dynamically (during processing) changes the height of a userform. What I am trying to do is this: I have ten worksheets but only five are being used. I am looking to have a userform with a checkbox for each of the active sheets labeled. I don't want to have to display a form that is basically ten checkboxes with five enabled and five disabled. I want to show only the five active sheets checkboxes with a userform only large enough for the five. If six are active then a userform displaying six checkboxes and a userform large enough for only the six to be displayed.
I have a range which will change in size & in content, & I want this to be a Named Range at whatever size it is.
Reason I want to is because I want to make a Validation List with this dynamic range. I also want a Validation list which lists the content of 2 or more dynamic ranges which may or may not be on the same worksheet - is this possible?
i.e. First dynamic range: called "Milestones" at A11 Second dynamic range: called "Activities" at A25 & make a Validation list that will list content of both
I am working in excel 2003. I have a number of combo boxes, and I would like to get the listindex of a given box. It is easy to get the value of the box number "x"
i have a combobox(form control) that has its listfillrange property equal to a range("A1:a10") on sheet1. The combobox allows for user entry and i am trying to create code where it adds the value entered in the combobox to the range("a1:a10) on sheet1 if its not already within the list. Then set the last value used as the listindex of the combobox.
I've created my menu. It has a new tab, two group, and some controls. My task is to load strings into one of the comboboxes from a list on a sheet. The id of the combobox is cmbo_ReachesCombo. I grabbed some code from Andy Pope's site that changes the text for a editbox. I tried to adapt it to my combobox, but it didn't work.
Public Sub cmbo_ReachesCombo_getText(control As IRibbonControl, ByRef returnedVal) ' Code for getText callback. Ribbon control Reaches Combobox ' Dim R As Range Set R = Sheets("Options").Range(Range("ReachPagesHeader").Offset(1, 0), Range("ReachPagesHeader").Offset(20, 0).End(xlUp))
how to control the contents of one combobox based on the selection made in another combobox. But, for some reason, ComboBoxTime1 (as shown in the code below) will only display the first item in the Dynamic Named Range when the user clicks on the pull-down arrow. The Named Range is consistent in size (4 cells) for each of the selection options in ComboBoxDay1. why only the first of four options are displayed in the second combobox?
Also, when a selection is made in the first combobox, the second combobox immediately displays the first item in the Dynamic Named Range (the one selection option it allows). I would prefer for it to remain blank until the user has selected an item from the pull-down list.
Private Sub ComboBoxDay1_Change() Dim strRange As String If ComboBoxDay1.ListIndex > -1 Then strRange = ComboBoxDay1 strRange = Replace(strRange, " ", "_") With ComboBoxTime1 .RowSource = vbNullString .RowSource = strRange .ListIndex = 0 End With Else LblTime1.Caption = "Time 1:" End If End Sub
I have a dynamic table which is linked to a couple of charts. The table must remain dynamic.
I needed to add two new columns to the table, "Focus Area" and "Category". I need a drop down list in the "Category" column to be dependent on the item selected from a drop down menu in "Focus Area".
I can get the first row of the dynamic table to do this.... however; subsequent rows all lock the drop down list in the "Category" column to the same choices regardless of what is chosen in the "Focus Area" list.
Is there a way to make dynamic drop downs within a dynamic table?
I want to create a cascading combo box from some values that I have, ill explain how I approached it.
Cascading combo box is a combobox which values are obtained depending on the answer of a previous combo box.
So I set up a little table like so:
Categories Car Train Bike Car Mercades First Honda Train Ford Western Ducati Bike Skoda Red Suzuki
and the combo boxes would be set aside from that.I collected the data in Named Ranges (A Range for Categories, A Range for Car, A Range for Train...)
The first data validation box contains = Categories the second data validation box contains =INDIRECT($C$2) (Where C2 was the range of the first validation box)
Once this was working, I decided to change the formula for the named ranges to allow me to add more values.
The formula was: =$F3$F8
I changed it to: =OFFSET($F$3,0,0,COUNTA($F3:$F96),1)
I expected this to work however, it just doesnt.... when clicking on the drop down arrow for the validation box, nothing happens. No box or values or dropdown.
I am unable to reference the combobox's rowsource to another sheet dynamically The codes below are initialized when the userform is loaded. Is there anything wrong with it?
I have a golf teetime reservation spreadsheet. For each tee time there can be up to four players names so I use 4 columns. Times are listed in rows every 10 minutes beginning 6am until 5pm for a total of 66 rows per day. I have a member/customer list that I have on a separate sheet that I've named. I am using the ActiveX combo box next to each possible entry (so 4 columns times 66 rows = 264 combo boxes). It's a little slow and takes a long time to open. I like the ActiveX combo box because it allows me to define the box format and display and it allows search/read/write capability. The idea is the customer calls, I ask what time they want and we arrive upon an available time. I ask for a last name, I click the combo box, type the first letter of the first name and then scroll if necessary to the name and click it to add the name to the time/player cell. If no name in my list we simply type it in and I'll capture it next time I refresh my customer list.
way to dynamically define the linkedcell in the properties so that instead of 264 combo boxes, I might have one combo box that I can click on and then direct my selection to the cell I want it to go into.
i'm writing a refrigeration selection user interface, working from values on an excel spreadsheet. how to get the programme to automatically select a value from a list or range once a user has selected corresponding value from a list within a combobox. for example if a user sets the temperature of their refrigerator to -5 celsius i need the programme to automatically select the corresponding value of enthalpy for the air at that temperature.
I have a userform where I have 2 comboboxes. The first combobox shows the the first column (only 1 of each) and the second comboBox shows me the secondary list that correlates to the valuse in the first from column B. Now I have a text box that I am trying to get the value from column C depending on what I have in the first 2 comboboxes. What is the easiest way to do it? This is all in VB since it is a UserForm, and using Vlookup seems to be too many lines if I go that route. Is there a way to use Index and Match in VB where it would be more efficient? I attached just a sample of how the data would be layed out in the Excel sheet.
My Userform with combobox entries for product checks against the rowsource and if not on the list, is added to the list. the list is a named range in a Table that is used in a data model.
No matter which way I try I am regularly getting a corruption in the table that is home to the named range which is the rowsource... after one or two entries from the userform.
The rowsource is not bound to the worksheet, it is populated at userform_initialize procedure. (There are 4 combobox drawing from same rouwsource hence the loop through to check each)
debug points to the line at which conbobox value is being entered into the rowsource, though not always - it sometimes just crashes the whole file and everything needs restarting, upon which the table is fine and entry is evident.
I have tried resize, addrow to bottom of table variations and all result in the same core problem of a table corruption that crashes the file.
I've attached a spreadsheet showing the effect I'm trying to achieve. A list (which changes weekly) contains employee details and length of service. Based on the length of service I need to build a new list grouping the employees based on the service length.
Update a list using a Combo Box works fine when the list is on the same worksheet but when the list is on a different Worksheet it does not work.
Is this achievable? I guess so! but was wondering how to do it.
e.g: if my range defined name called let us say "SP" with a range AD1:AD60 in Sheet1 when I use a combo box the Listfillrange will contain: SP
When inserting a new entry using the combobox it works fine but when the same defined name range points to a different Worksheet example: Sheet2 then the update does not work although the ListFillRange contains the same Range name: SP.
I am trying to filter a list for a ComboBox using VB. I have the following
Defined Name 'MemMapSel' 1stCol 2ndCol 3rdCol 4thCol 5thCol Alarms a BOOL 2001 4000 Commands i BOOL 4001 5000 Status s INT 7001 8000 Free x DINT 9001 10000 etc etc
I am using a combobox to select which row i require and am mapping the 4thCol to a cell At present the property 'ListFillRange' is set to 'MemMapSel' displaying all 5 columns and bounding column 4 as the value
What i really need is to Filter this list, so that the combobox only displays the BOOL entries in the 3rdCol, or the INT, etc I think i can use the Select function to do this, but i am not sure how to go about it.
