I am working on a dynamically produced userform but the dynamically created Cancel and OK buttons don't work. I have been able to get round it by adding the buttons to the top of the form (non- dynamic) but I'd really like to be able to create them dynamically based on variable for other parts of the project. How can I produce dynamic command buttons that actually work?
Here's my code but I'd be happy with generic code I could use.
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
' Define variables
Dim LabelV As MSForms.Label
Dim CheckboxV As MSForms.Checkbox
Dim rngFields As Excel.Range
Dim field As Excel.Range
Dim lngNextTop As Long
Dim lngTitleBarHeight As Long
Dim ColumnNum As Integer
' Set constants
' Choose height and width of Label box
Const cTextBoxHeight As Long = 12..............
I have problems with dynamically adding and removing checkboxes. I have a form and there is a button to add more rows to the table. Every row includes a checkbox too.
So first i add a row, and then add a checkbox to a specified cell in that row.There is a button for removing rows as well (witch should removes checkboxes as well).
My problem is when i ad the checkbox the linked cell property only works for the first one.When i add the second row the linked cell of the firstly added checkbox changes to the one in the new row and the new checkbox has no linked cell. I am adding the stuffs as follows:
VB:
Private Sub addBtn_Click()
Dim y As Integer
y = findFunc("end") // Y define where To insert the New row
Cells(y, 11).EntireRow.Insert
Cells(8, 11).Copy
[Code] .....
Any way to add checkboxes dynamically.
I am trying to dynamically add controls to my user form based on some values in my cell. I am successfully able to create a text box dynamically but my label is not getting displayed. here is my code
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
On Error Resume Next
If (ThisWorkbook. Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(1, 8) <> "FALSE") Then
Dim ctl As Control
Dim ctl1 As Control
Set ctl1 = Me.Controls.Add("Forms.Label.1", ctl1, True)
With ctl1
I have a userform with a single blank multipage. At runtime additional pages are added, the number of pages depends on input from another userform. Six frames, containing labels, textboxes and comboboxes are then added to each page.
I need to be able to use the textbox and combobox change events of these dynamically created controls to perform lookups and calculations. Although I can name the controls at the time they are created, it is not feasible to write code specifically for each control (I can have over 1,600 text boxes distributed over 9 pages, for example).
Having searched for some time on how to achieve this I believe using a class module is the way to go. However, how to use a class module is just not sinking in I'm afraid.

I am looking for a macro that will (most likely via button) create new table under an already existing one.
So for simple example, I have this ....
I have created a menu called "Temp" and a sub menu called "Temp1". When the user click on Temp1, I need to dynamically add some menu items under Temp1. Is this possible in Excel?
I need to do this on the right click menu. for example, along with "Cut", paste" etc menu's I need to add a Menu Item, Temp and under this menu, I need to add a SubMenu, Temp1. When the user click on the Temp1, I need to populate the child items.
I've managed to get coding that allows me to insert single rows dynamically based on a cell value. Example is if I enter a value in cell C3 the coding inserts the same number of rows below.
I've also created a simple macro that inserts a multiple row block under the active cell, complete with formatting, text and some merged cells. Example is I run the macro and it will insert a block of 3 rows, complete with formatting, borders, text and merged cells.
My challenge is to bring these two elements together. So enter a number in a single cell which will then insert the same number of row blocks, complete with formatting etc. I've added a file to sample what it is I'm trying to achieve. I can add the coding I already have as well.

I have a userform with a large number of textboxes. Say 100. I want to clear them all after the user submits the data to the spreadsheet. Essentially resetting the userform.
Currently I have:
userform1.textbox1.value = ""
userform1.textbox2.value = ""
...
userform1.textbox100.value = ""
Is there a way to change the textbox number to a variable? Something like:
For textboxN = 1 to textboxN =100 Do
textboxN.value = ""
Loop
or it's text box/ labels depending upon learning of how many records the application is working with?
I remember some body here has said that you could either
1 - create many labels and text box and then once run the application hides the number of the ones not use or
2 - you could once run the application have visual basic create label and text of the right number associate with the number of records working with.
I have looked at both these option and have found nothing. So is this possible and show some examples if you have them.

I have a worksheet with lots of things going on... the end user needs access to the Name field, DOB field, all the scroll and form control option buttons in the 9-question sheet, and the macro-enabled reset button at the bottom. Formulas are sprinkled throughout the worksheet, in columns T through AC... option button links go to AA and AB.
I would like to protect the entire sheet so none of the fields, except where indicated above, could be selected or edited... but when I protect the sheet, I get errors when trying to use you form controls, and the formulas do not respond. And finally, when protected, I get a debug error on the reset macro.
I have a problem with a dynamic userform that I need to create.
I need a userform in which the number of controls are determined by the some values in the worksheet. The users of the workbook must be able to add new controls to the form, so I do not know the number of controls in advance. I therefore can not create the userform through the design module but must create it through code instead.
I need a userform with a number of comboboxes and a commandbutton, which when clicked sends the content of the comboboxes to the first empty row in a worksheet.
My problem is that I can't assign any commands to the comboboxes (which are created at runtime), nor can I use the values of the comboboxes in any commands assigned to other controls in the userform (e.g. the commandbutton).
I have read as far that I probably need some form of class module to create the controls at runtime, but since I am relatively new at VBA, I'm having trouble getting the class module to work in connection with the userform.
I have a column of data showing trade results - in the most basic way I can explain, as my account value GROWS by a preset amount (say 20-30%) how can I ADD to the number of contracts I am trading. For example I start with $10,000 and the account grows to $12,000 or 20% - according to my own trading rules, this allows me to ADD an additional contract to trade (I start with 1 contract). As the account continues to grow progressively 20% from the previous 20% jump, I add ANOTHER contract.
and to top this off, I do the same in reverse, If I lose or go into a drawdown .. how do I reduce my number of contracts traded?? so lets say I am up to trading 4 contracts and I lose say 10% of the account value - I want to slow down or "ease up" the number of contracts until I get the account back to its previous high. Anyone know how this can be programmed??
One last final caveat - when you go on a winning streak, I add for every 20% INCREASE in the account value and when I lose I reduce contracts at every 10% pullback to preserve winnings as much as possible.but I am ALWAYS allowed to trade a MINIMUM of 1 contract
I want to use 4 toggle buttons to be able to add and remove 4 different series to a chart. When the toggle button is clicked, a specific series is added to a chart, and when it is unclicked then the series would be removed.
The problem I am running into is that unless I add and remove each series in a specific order, I will get an error because I may be trying to remove a series whose series number is not on the series collection in the chart.
for example: if I remove series number 2 with the toggle button for that specific series, then the toggle button for series number 3 will remove the old series 4 (which is now 3), and the toggle button for series 4 won't work because series 4 will now have become series 3.
Therefore, would there be a way to remove a series based on the name of the series, rather than the series collection number?
I have a userform that has nested multipages (5 in the outer page, 4 in the inner page).
On each of these multipages, I want to have the same controls (sliders) laid out in the same order - but with unique names, named after their tab location, for each control so I can use their value property later in the code.
I've designed the layout and named all the controls on my first sheet (e.g. Slider1Outer1Inner1). I now need a way of automating the replication of these across the other 19 sheets (including the nested inner multipage!); so that equivalent slider for example would be called Slider1Outer1Inner2, Slider1Outer1Inner3 etc.
I'm not sure about coding VBA to act on items within VBA...
VB:
" For each multipage in outer
For Each multipage In inner
For Each Object In current multipage
Copy inner.object -> Next multipage
Inner.object.name = CurrentOuter & CurrentInner & CurrentSlider "
What's the best way to hide controls on a userform? I have a userfrom with 2 datepicker one for start date and one for end date. I want them hidden until I use checkbox and check it to appear. I am using this code but nothing is work.

I dont really want to go through each control as I reckon it will be handy code to have in the future if I need to add more but so far my code is:
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
With Sheet2
n = 3
[Code].....
I have a number of TextBoxes across the page, all set to Visible=False.
If these get filled with data then I need to set Visible=True.
Rather than hard code this individually for each one (which is not a problem, it just looks untidy), can I select each row as a Group (whilst designing the form, not in the code) and then set that Group to Visible=True ?
I have a userform that contains several textboxes, checkboxes, and comboboxes. There are also some command buttons, one of which says clear all. What I want to do is loop through the controls and clear the contents or change the value to false, depending on the type. I can do this by type the name.value = "", but there are alot of controls. If possible, a loop would be much more effecient.

Question I is that how can I connet this textbox to a click event or just to a procedure when it is clicked? I tried to use OnAction but it does not work for textbox in a userform. Question II is that how can I find the all properties of a textbox or any other controls? Is there a manuel or reference available on the internet?
What are the pros/cons of using Userforms with the various objects (comboboxes, textboxes,etc) compared to putting the controls at the worksheet level? Are there things you can do in one and not the other?

I have a userform with a series of textboxes used for data entry (numeric values) specifically, 3 groups with 5 text boxes per group. If the value of any text box within a group is either >= the value of a cell in a worksheet range (Benchmark, i.e. BM), then the BackColor of that particular text box changes to green.
The challenge I have is trying to loop through each set of five controls to determine if the control's value is >= to the cell's value in the worksheet range, and if that condition is met, than changing the BackColor to green.
I know there must be a more efficient way to make this happen than to write an 'If - Then' for each text box (see code below)
Private Sub Benchmarks()
BM1 = Worksheets("Sheet 1").Range("A1").Value
BM2 = Worksheets("Sheet 1").Range("A2").Value
If txtGroup1Box1.Value <> "X" And txtGroup1Box1.Value <> "" And txtGroup1Box1.Value <= BM1 Then
txtGroup1Box1.BackColor = &HFF00&
Else
txtGroup1Box1.BackColor = &H80000005 ............................

any idea how to solve the problem ?
pls find the attached file

way to allow a user to add a control to a userform without going into the VBE. Here is the situation, I am developing a userform to calculate a projected budget. I want the user to be able to select the number of controls to add, and click a command button to add them. Based on other selections that the user makes, different controls would automatically be added. Is this possible? As a follow up, will I be able to atttach code to these new controls?
