i have this attendance list i found(attached). it works excellent except i would like to add to its functionality.
1. at the end of each week for each student i want to be able to type progress comments
2. i would also like it so each students name can 'drop down' to basic contact info (address, contact #, emergency contact # date).
I want to use a msgbox as a progress indicator for a routine in an application. I cant figure out how to do this.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have code that adds comments to a field once the field has been changed. What happens is you right click the field, select a field that has been added to the right-click menu called FYI. After FYI is selected an InputBox() statement is used and a box appears for you to type comments. Then what you typed is added to the comments in the cell.
Is there a function like the InputBox that allows you to use a List Box instead. I have tried finding it but cannot locate what I think it is. This is probably simple but I can't think of anything. I guess I could create a user form that pops up but I thought this would be easier to just have a Dop list appear like the InputBox if there was a function already in Excel?
Im consolidating datas from muliple excel files to single data base excel file.Am having macro and it is working fine for me.But when am loading data to data base file the excel files are vibrating.To avoid this issue i want to Set the progress bar which should indicate the progress of the data loading.
View 12 Replies View RelatedI created comments to be shown when drop down list items are selected using the helper cell and workbook change solution from Leith Ross at the thread below.
[URL]....
This works perfectly to show the comments. What I'd now like to do is delete the comment if the content of the cell is deleted.
Please see the screenshot : Excel-comments-misplaced-bug.png
when I filter my list (around 1000 records) and I want to edit a comment, the comments are at their original (unfiltered list's) place. is it solved in 2013 version ? or anyway to solve it ?
Supposing I have a list where each data set appears multiple times. How do I by formula make a list of the unique values?
I've uploaded to show what I mean.
Leith was kind enough to to put a great combo box together for me (see attached). Is it possible for the drop down list to open on type or do you always have to click the arrow?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a standard pull down list in a worksheet containing names of rivers, canals, lakes etc
Is it possible to colour code by type so that all rivers in the list are coloured - say blue, canals - brown etc...
Each name in the list has the designated type included i.e River Thames_Ri
(_Ri = river, _Ca = Canal etc...)
is it possible to have a cell return all matches from a list and have the list of matches reduce as you type, then be able to select one item from the list? this is a typical feature on internet sites, but can it be done in Excel?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a big list of words (raw materials). Can I for example use column1 in which if i type one letter a list of words that begin with this letter to come out so i can choose one.
Or I have for example:
Label 1
Label 2
Label 3
And when i type L in cell A1 list of them to be shown and I can choose one.
I am not sure of what is it called, but I would like to be able to start typing in a cell and it to start giving me options until there is only one.
Right now I have 9 dynamic lists with anywhere from 5-20 names per list and I have a report form with multiple data validated drop down lists each pulling from a separate dynamic list. This works ok, but as the user tabs to a cell with the drop down, they must use the mouse to initiate the drop down and then select the right data. Even if the user types the right data into the cell, it will not pass validation. Is there a way to start typing and it to keep throwing away things until only one option is available and then be able to use the tab button to enter that data into the cell and move to the next cell? Or as another option how hard would it be to activate the drop down when the cell is selected and then use the arrow keys to select the right one and tab to the next cell? I would want to be able to tab through the cell if no information was needed from that dynamic list.
I have a large list of data records, 600+, and would like to use List Validation but find EXCEL's default Validation not appropriate for such long lists. What would be perfect is similar to what you get in Access, when you type in part of the record string required, a drop-down list appears and shows you the record entries that have that string within them and not necessarily in character order, quickly wittling down to the few records that apply and then use your arrow keys to move and select the correct record, etc. Example, I own a salon, and many shampoo ranges have many similar products:
Superstar
Superstar Blow Dry Lotion
Superstar Leave In Conditioner
Superstar Shampoo
Superstar Conditioner...........
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?
I have a list of a couple of thousand (and more) individual items. I want to filter the list and have a box for users to type in text (there are no numbers) and the results will be seen automatically reducing in number as more text is entered. (Similar to the Windows HELP files )
eg, typing A (or a) will show all entries beginning with A (without pressing
"Enter" or similar
typing AB will show only entries beinning with AB
typing ABO will show .........I guess you will understand the idea.
I have tried various forms of Filter - Auto and advanced - but still cannot get the spreadsheet to do what I want. Unless I am not doing the Autofilter (or Advanced filter) correctly (I am still a relative beginner!) I still cannot find a way of simply adding letters to a cell or input box and the filtering takes place 'automatically' as the letters are added.
I would like to be able to add comments to cells within a table (Sheet1 in my sample workbook). once those comments are created, i would like the text of each comment to be listed on another worksheet as text within the cells (sheet2 in my sample workbook). the only thing i could find was how to add text and create a comment for a certain cell.
View 4 Replies View RelatedHow would you prevent the copy/paste of cells that have comments?
Also, how would you allow cells with comments to be copied and pasted without pasting the comments?
I also have an aside question about the forum advanced search. When searching for multiple search words, how would you type the search to include all words, for example, "prevent" & "paste" & "comments".
1. Is there a VBA Function equivalent to the FIND() function, If so What is it?
2. Let's say Im Putting a Date into a inputbox, what is the type # for date (Type:=?)??
I would like to have a progress bar in some of my userforms.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to come up with an efficient formulae or function to calculate tax
The problem I have is that the tax is progressive. As below
the first 20,000 is taxed at 5%
the next 20,000 is taxed at 6%
the next 20,000 is taxed at 7%
the next 20,000 is taxed at 8%
the next 20,000 is taxed at 9%
more than 100,000 is taxed at 10%
I'm trying to do a formula like below
Cell B3 is my taxable amount
Cell B5 =IF(B$3>20000,20000*0.05,B$3*0.05)
Cell B6 =IF(B$3>40000,40000*0.05,(B$3-20000)*0.05)
This gives me a problem in that for 35k say, I end up with a negative number for the second part in cell B6. My other issue is that each calculation will take up 6 rows on my
spreadsheet. I was hoping to set up a function that could do this in a cell, but even the simple stage defeats me at the moment.
I struggling in progress bar code, Once userForm.show code executes code execution stops, Once if i close the userform at runtime step wise code continues from next line in this case i mean UserForm.ProgressBar1.Min = 0

UserForm.ProgressBar1.Min = 0
UserForm.ProgressBar1.Max = 100

I have a code that has a loop with up to 100,000 possible iterations. The max number of iterations, N, is variable and to be specified by the user via user form.
That's why I like to show only incremental progress , say 5% competed , 10% completed ,... , so on. What is the best way to code it?
Another question: I tried to show it via
Application.StatusBar = Format(PctDone, "#.##%") & " completed"
but for some reason it does not get updated while the code is running. Is that because the user form is visible? For now, I'm trying to add a label progress bar to the user form, but StatusBar would suffice.
I'm using a mostly recorded macro to do some rather lengthy formatting in a workbook. The formatting is lengthy enough that I don't want people to think the PC is hung. So I'd like to use the progress bar. I'm trying to trim the code down to just the bare essentials for running the progress bar during the macro procedure (and so I can better understand what's happening in the code). The attachment shows what I've done so far. When I press the "Format Workbook" button then I have to press another button ("Run Progress Meter") to really launch the progress bar.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am using the following code to activate a progress bar.
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
Dim dTime As Date
Dim i, t As Integer
For i = 1 To 100 Step 100 / 8
dTime = Now + TimeValue("0:00:01")
Application.Wait TimeValue(dTime)
ProgressBar1.Value = i
Next i
End Sub
This works fine and the progress bar moves in 8 steps.
However, I want to include this into a module of code and it moves along according to how far down the module my code is running.
I want to be able to have a progressbar that populates upwards. When I use a scrollbar to adjust the height it wants to go down.

I have created a Excel userform. Since it has lot of controls, it takes good amount of time to load.
Is there a possibility of displaying a progress bar till the userform is loaded.
Google search has shown me ways to create a progress bar using Excel Forms. However, I am looking for a way to show the progress bar till the main userform is loaded.
I want to create a progress bar that will show how much percent is completed from bottom to top. It should count total total number of cases in the table. suppose they are 280 then it should show 0 to 280 in a label. 0 at the bottom and 280 at the top. then count how many cases have been completed as a percentage going up when percentage is increasing.
