Keydown To Effect To All Controls That Support Event
Dec 31, 2006Is there a way to fix a private sub to catch keydown effect of various combos and textboxes of my userform?
Instead of typing the same thing to each and every control's keydown event just call a sub. Code goes like:
Select Case KeyCode
Case 112
ShellExecute 0, "open", "hh.exe", ThisWorkbook.Path & "1.chm", "", 1
Case 113
If MsgBox("Backup now", vbQuestion + vbYesNo) = vbYes Then BackUp
Case 114
Col = 3
SearchD
Case 115
showexcel
Case 116
readonly
e.c.t.
Instead of that, if i place code in a private sub test() just call test in keydown event
Writing Function For Textbox Keypress Event

Is there a way to make a function out of this to cut out the duplication of code.
Exit Event Running Twice Due To SetFocus
Feb 15, 2013I am using a Textbox1_Exit event that (if certain values are true) sets the focus to different Textbox. However, when I invoke the Textbox3.SetFocus, it redoes all the code in the Textbox1_Exit event since it's technically leaving now.
How do I stop this from happening and ensure that the Exit event happens once? OR How do I properly SetFocus inside an Exit event?
Beep From KeyPress
Sep 13, 2009I've got a small - almost "cosmetic" problem. I have a listBox on a userForm and I'm checking for a keystroke combination to see if the user wants to edit related data. That's working fine. However, when I return to the userForm, it beeps at me. Impertinent! I think it's because Excel doesn't know what to do with the keyStroke that I used - Alt U. I've attached code. I think that I just have to set the keycode to something that will be ignored by Excel.

Get 2 Textboxes To Display Different Strings Based On Keypress
Mar 19, 2008I have a Userform whose purpose it is to capture payment information, in particular Creditcard information. To this end it has (amongst other elements) 2 textboxes - textboxCardNr1 and TextboxCardnr2.
the User enters the cardnr in Textboxcardnr1 as, e.g. 4321098765432109. Through the code below I transform this into the more readable number
4321-0987-6543-2109. I capture the keypress instance to only allow numbers to be entered in this field and to simultaniously update TextboxCardNr2 with the keystrokes.
On exiting TextboxCardNr1 the content of TextboxCardNr2 is copied to the clipboard to be available for pasting on a secure website in the approriate field.
My problem is, that when the user makes a mistake and changes the number in TextboxCardNr1, those changes are not automatically mirrored in TextboxCardNr2.
I want the easy to read form of the card - with the dashes, to be saved. The website the user is pasting the content of TextboxCardnr2 to does not accept the number with dashes.
Private Sub TextBoxCardNr1_KeyPress(ByVal KeyAscii As MSForms.ReturnInteger)
Dim taste As String
Dim wert As String
taste = VBA.Chr(KeyAscii)
wert = Me.TextBoxCardNr1.Text
KeyAscii = 0
If taste = "0" Or taste = "1" Or taste = "2" Or taste = "3" Or taste = "4" Or taste = "5" Or taste = "6" Or taste = "7" Or taste = "8" Or taste = "9" Then If Not Me.TextBoxCardNr2.Text Like "################" Then
Me.TextBoxCardNr2.Text = Me.TextBoxCardNr2.Text & taste............................
SetFocus On TextBox
May 9, 2009I have the below to check for a numeric entry and when it's not, it deletes the entry, shows a Splash Form for a few seconds telling the user to enter Numeric, and then unloads.
The problem is, on the SetFocus part. I thought that it should put the cursor back into TextBox2 for another entry. It doesn't, in fact the cursor is nowhere to be seen. I have to grab the mouse and click in the TB2 to reenter a number.
Private Sub TextBox2_Change()
'//Check for numeric entry
If Not IsNumeric(TextBox2) Then
Me.TextBox2 = ""
'//Show SplashForm if not numeric

Setfocus In Userform Not Working
Dec 29, 2009I'm having some problems with SetFocus on a user form that I am using. Code is Below.
Dim Answer As Variant
With cboAccount
If .Value "" And .ListIndex = -1 Then
Answer = MsgBox(cboAccount.Value & " is not a registered account, would you like to add it?", vbYesNo)
If Answer = vbYes Then
Load frmNewAccount
frmNewAccount.txtAccountName.Value = frmEnterTransaction.cboAccount.Value
frmNewAccount.Show
If Answer = vbNo Then
cboAccount.SetFocus
End If
End If
End If
End With
End Sub
basically the code asks if the if the answer placed in a cboAccount (combo box) is valid against the list designated to that combo box,
If the entry is not valid a message box appears asking if they would like to add the entry to the valid list if they do not want to do this they can click no and in which case I wan't the focus to be set back to the combo box however currently the setfocus command above does not does not work and the focus is set to the next text box.
Control Events And SetFocus
Feb 3, 2006I have been working for 8-1/2 hours to get the focus to move to a specified control on my user form if criteria are met in two other controls on the same user form. It's not responding as I expect. I think I know what is happening; I just don't know why.
Situation: I have a user form with the following relevant fields in this tab order - LMonthDay, tbMonthDay, SBMonthDay, LYear, tbYear, SBYear, LTime, and tbTime. I used the designations L, tb, and SB in my control names to represent label, text box, and spin button respectively.
Problem: Once the SBMonthDay control has the focus, if I press TAB without changing the control's value, it does not execute the Exit event statement the way I anticipated. I want the focus to move to the tbTime control when the tbMonthDay & tbYear controls are already properly populated. (They will already be populated for 99% of the entries in this case.)
Private Sub SBMonthDay_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
Debug.Print "SBMonthDay_Exit Begin"
If ISLIKE(tbMonthDay.text, "####") _
And ISLIKE(tbYear.text, "####") Then
tbTime.SetFocus
Else: tbYear.SetFocus
End If
Debug.Print "SBMonthDay_Exit End"
End Sub ...........................................
Setfocus To Combobox On Multipage
Apr 17, 2006I have a userform with a multipage consisting of 4 tabs.
Each one has several combobox's and 1 commandbutton.
As you move through the form the commandbutton moves the data to my worksheet then moves you to the next page. When it reaches the last page it will return you to the first page then unload the form which is great.
The problem I am having is the cursor is not in any of the boxes on the first page. If I click on one of the other tabs then return to first page the first combobox has the focus. All the tab orders are correct. Can anyone point me in the right direction.

Validating Textbox On Userform And SetFocus
Feb 24, 2013I have two userforms. When the user chooses the choice "Other" in the userform frmTradeSickOther, another userform called frmOther will be called. At this point, the user will enter some required comments in a textbox (called txtOther) and click the "Add Comment" button. If the user does not enter anything, a prompt will inform the user to type something in the textbox.
My problems: Once the user clicks okay to the prompt, frmOther is called back. When it's called back, I want the cursor to blink in the textbox. Eventhough I have SetFocus on the textbox, it does not work. I don't know why.How do I prevent the user from just hitting enter (i.e., accepting blank lines as comments) and bypassing the commenting part. The code below accounts for hitting enter once (i.e., one blank line), but not multiple times. How do I do this?
Here is what I have when the user clicks on the "Other" choice in frmTradeSickOther:
Code:
Private Sub optOther_Click()
Unload Me
frmOther.Show
frmOther.txtOther.SetFocus 'This gets the cursor to blink in textOther when frmOther is called.
End Sub
Here is what I have when the user clicks the "Add Comment" button on frmOther:
Code:
Private Sub btnAddComment_Click()
On Error Resume Next
txtOther.Value = Trim(txtOther.Value) 'This is to make sure spaces aren't accepted as a comment.
If Me.txtOther = vbNullString Then
Me.Hide
MsgBox "Please enter the necessary information.", vbInformation, "Required Field"
Me.Show
Me.txtOther.SetFocus 'Here is where I set focus on txtOther.
Exit Sub
End If
'Everything below is to add comments automatically to each cell when a value is changed.
Application.CommandBars("Cell").Controls("Delete Comment").Enabled = True
If Not ActiveCell.Comment Is Nothing Then
Application.CommandBars("Cell").Controls("Edit Comment").Enabled = True

TextBox Setfocus Unexpected Call
Jan 31, 2010I've got a user form with 12 textbox, one for each month a total textbox number 13 and a 14th text box (TB28) to enter $'s in.
AfterUpdate in each textbox 1-12 posts its value to a worksheet all values are summed in a =sum range which in turn populates textbox 13. When TB13.text = 100.00 it sucessfully calls a number of routines but what I can't get it to do is set focus on TB28.
Private Sub TextBox13_Change()
If TextBox13.Text = "100.00" Then
With FormPhasedAmt.TextBox28
.SelStart = 0
.SelLength = Len(TextBox28.Text)
.SetFocus
End With
End If
End Sub
It returns a Run time error Unexpected call to method or property access highlighting .SetFocus. The rest of the code works OK. Is it because other textbox on the same user form have text highlighted because of the tab order?
SetFocus On TextBox As First Control In A Frame
May 9, 2005In Excel 2000 there seems to be a problem with setting the focus in a UserForm TextBox if the SetFocus method is applied in the same submodule as the UserForm.Show method. Microsoft's circumvention for this is to put the SetFocus command in the form's Activate event submodule.
This seems to work OK except when the TextBox you are applying the SetFocus to is the first control inside a frame. It works if the TextBox is not the first control, and it can be circumvented by first setting the focus on a subsequent control then switching the focus to the intended control.
However, the circumvention is not that useful if there is only one TextBox control in a frame or, as in my current project, if you try to create a generic piece of code to validate controls from multiple forms and set the focus from within the generic code.
Does anyone know of a way over overcoming this problem and being able to directly set the focus to the first TextBox inside a frame?

Worksheet Change Event :: (ByVal Target As Range) Event In Module After Creating A Sheet
Mar 27, 2009Is there a way to write a Worksheet_SelectionChange (ByVal Target As Range) event in module after creating a sheet in VBA? I constantly delete a sheet, then repopulate it with a new one that is empty, but I need to add some code that happens if they should change a particular cell. It worked when I ran it on a worksheet without refreshing, but as soon as I cleared and repopulated the sheet, it was gone. Is there a way to preserve this?

However I also want to perform various calculations on the sheet. However this means the sheet is being changed and so continually repeats my code.

Tab Key Change Event
Apr 19, 2009I have a user input box (VBA) with two columns of data entry. The leftmost column has text boxes labeled color1, color2, color3, etc.. The rightmost column has text boxes labeled tag1, tag2, tag3, etc..
I have the TAB sequence set to go from color1 to tag1, color2 to tag2, color3to tag3, etc..
A user can inadvertently tab over the color1 (or color2, etc. columns) into the tag1 (or tag 2, etc. columns) column without entering data in the color column.
Is there coding to allow a TAB key entry to be a Change Event such that, if a user TABS out of color1 without entering data, a MsgBox could signal that they must enter data in the color1 field before they can continue?
Alternately, can you suggest a different approach? The goal is to require an entry in the leftmost column (color1) before they can proceed to the tag1 field. Of course, they are given a "Cancel" option.
