Excel 2007 :: Typing Selection In List Box?
Jun 4, 2014
I am creating a form using Excel 2007/XP, and am trying to make it easy to use for both people who want to click and people who want to type. I have a series of list boxes in the form that make it easy for the clickers, but I want the typers to be able to tab into the box and make a selection. For example, if the choices are Apples, Pears, and Grapes, I would like a user to be able to tab into the box, hit P and tab to the next box and have Pear be selected.

[URL]....When I select a name in column B, it populates column C's dropdown with that name's list of units. When I select a unity type in column C, I'd like it to automatically populate column E in the same row with the value associated with that unit. The values associated with a particular unit can be found to the right of the sheet. So if in row 2 I select Blake in column B, then Unit 5 in column C, I'd like column E to be populated with 14.
Edit: using Excel 2007.
I attached stripped down version of the sheet which is small enough to post. None of the things I removed should affect the topic at hand. The full sheet is available at rapidshare.

Is it possible to do a drop down list that allow user to select pre-defined selections but everytime when a selection is chosen, the list reduced?
Example,
I have can choose Apple, Orange, Durian and Mango.
The drop down can only select these 4 fruits.
So there are 4 cells in Column A1, A2, A3, A4.
A1 selects Mango and then A2 will only have 3 options to choose. So until the last cell, he can only choose the last fruit left.
A1, A2, A3, A4 are not selecting in descending order thus it could be A3 selecting first, then A2 and then A4.
I'm using excel 2007

(Excel 2007). I have a report that I download which looks like this: The actual report has about 10000+ lines
I don't really want a macro for it but a formula that would copy the name in column A down in Column C but only to the point where the next name starts. So for example James Brown would be copied down in Column C till it reach Account Number 81914 and so on?

Pretty straightforward: randomly and infrequently, Excel ignores my selection of the rear tray paper source on my MX870 Canon. Able to correct issue only by closing out and re-opening Excel.

I have a spreadsheet in version Excel 2007 that is refreshing data from Access tables. Users are needing charts to show progress by month, but are also needing to filter by area and one to filter by a section.
What I have so far is the data being calculated using SUMIFS so that I can pull between dates. I then added two comboboxes so that the user could filter by an area and by section. This is working, except that I have not been able to figure out how to allow the user to select "All" so that they can see all data from on or both of the selections.

What I am looking to do is this... (using Excel 2007)
I need to have more dependent lists based on the selection in Column A. (My column B is already set up and works perfectly using INDIRECT)
For example:
Column F would be a dependent list of colors based on the sales rep chosen in Column A
Column I would be a dependent list of managers based on the sales rep chosen in Column A
Column M would be a dependent list of part numbers based on the rep chosen in column A
without using VBA? (If I HAD to - okay, the other person maintaining the sheet would be lost....) I haven't been able to find anything close to what I want to do online - maybe I am just not using the correct terms.

Its been a while since I did this on 2003 and needing a pointer on 2007.
Just needing a simple macro that opens the relevant folder from a hardcoded path to allow the user to manually select the file to be used.
This file will then be used to copy from and paste to another file.

I have a List of Different Fruits in Cells A1 to A5
Apple
Banana
Orange
Strawberry
Cherry
And I use data validation list in 5 different cells from Cells C1 to C5 then in every cell the list will show all the fruits,
But I want that if I select Any Fruit in cell C1 that should not be included in the remaining 4 cells, and the fruits selected in Cells C1 and Cell C2 should not be included in the remaining 3 cells and so on....
I Used the formula
=IF(C1=A1,OFFSET(A2,,,COUNTA($A$2:$A$5),1),0)
But this works fine if I select Apple in the Cell C1, then the List of C2 Shows all Fruits other than Apple, But if in Cell C1 I select any fruit other than Apple it does not work... (Using Excel2007 & Win XP)

I've been trying to create a form that contains a list with an auto-complete option.
[url]
I've tried it and it kinda works the way I'd like it to except:
1. Excel crashes if you press TAB or Enter after choose your selection.
2. You have to Double-Click on the Validation list tab to bring up the combo box.
If possible, it would be great if Excel didn't crash after pressing Enter or Tab
and if the combo box showed up immediately on selecting the validation list cell (or single click).
The VBA code is:
'==========================
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, _
Cancel As Boolean)
Dim str As String
Dim cboTemp As OLEObject
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = ActiveSheet
Cancel = True
Set cboTemp = ws.OLEObjects("TempCombo")
On Error Resume Next
With cboTemp
how to attach the file here but the website I mentioned contains a sample excel.
[url]
To summarise I'm hoping to create a sheet that:
1. Let's you click on the cell and then type something which causes it to autocomplete.
2. After I've made my selection I can press Enter/Tab/Click somewhere and it confirms it.
3. The rest of the sheet gets populated by results of lookup functions that are dependent on the selections.

I have written code in which cell color changes according to cell value. To change cell value I have used drop down list (Data/Validation/List). Main question/problem is code works well when cell value is changed by typing from keyboard only.
Code doesn't work when cell value is changed using drop down list.
Attached is the test file : Test_26082013.xls

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 am struggling with trying to create a Top 10 list in Excel 2007. I have googled and search the forum but could not find a solution. (Aplogies if i have overlooked a thread)
I have attached an example of my problem.
1. In Column F i would like to extract the names of the Top 10 performers, based on their respective score. Hence, based on the scoring in Column D, Column F should extract the Top 10 performer names from column A.
2. In Column G, same as above, but bottom 10 names
3. From the attachment, you will view some names are highlighted. I.e. Gary & Neil, and Ian & Michael. These are highlighted based on the fact that they have equal scores.
When extracting the Top / Bottom 10 list, i would like to rank the performers with same score differently. e.g. Gary & Neil, both scored 0%, hence they are equal. But in the Top 10 list, i would like to rank Gary higher as his absolute target is higher. (63 vs. 27) . Same applies to Ian & Michael, Michael should rank higher in the Bottom 10 List as his absolute target is higher.

I have cells containing large drop down lists (offering many possible entries). Is it possible to get excel to "jump" in the list or complete the entry automatically? If i start typing "aut", it should the drop down entry "automation". For your information, I just use Define Name and Data Validation to create the drop down list. Is it must be using VBA code or I just can use Define Name and Data Validation which has been I created?

I want to link a table to a form. Only, I noticed that when setting the input range in the form I'm unable to use OFFSET OR a table name. How can I link the form to a list which is going to expand?
Attached is an example. Two sheets. One for the list. One for the form. The list will keep getting added to.
Unrelated-but perhaps useful - Is it possible to link one cell to a list in another sheet so a user can type in a word and it will offer autocomplete options in excel 2007 ?

I am using the code below (Excel 2007) to delete and add back timesheets based on a list of names from the "Names" tab. In addition, I am making a "Table of Contents" with hyperlinks on a separate worksheet that will allow employees quick access to their timesheet without having to look at each tab. The code below works well if I want to delete and add back all the timesheet at one time but if we get a new employee in the middle of a pay period I have to use a single timesheet until the end of the pay period.
What I would like to know is, can the code below be modified so that when the code is run it reviews the list of names and only adds a new timesheet for that employee without deleting and adding back all the timesheets?

This macro should ignore those blanks.

I just tried installing a basic macro which reads from a shared file on the office server onto my colleagues computers. Works find on mine but doesn't work on theirs "Could not set the list property index". When I comment out the offending line, the form loads just fine but obviously without the listbox populated. The line is:
Code:
.popsLB.List = Application.WorksheetFunction.Transpose(camp_array)

Using Excel 2007, I have a very simple spreadsheet made up of only two worksheets that I am using to track the songs played by a band during a current tour.
One worksheet is called "Summary" and the other is called "Setlists". In the Setlists worksheet I list every show played (10 shows so far), and every song played from each show. In the Summary worksheet I have very song listed that has been played during the tour in one column (A), then the number of times that song has been played in another column (B). Column B, the number of times each song has been played, is populated by a COUNTIF function that looks at the Setlists worksheet and counts each instance of each song.
What I want to do, very simply, is to sort on column B in order to display the list of songs from the most played to least played. That is where I run into a problem. When I sort my list of numbers, I end up with a seemingly random list that certainly isn't from most to least and I can't figure out why.
Is it possible that the COUNTIF function which populates that column of numbers is somehow throwing off the sort?

I am trying to make an excel sheet which has a 2 column drop down. For example I want to have a drop down list in column 1 and when I select "Item A" in column 2 "item A" 's phone number appears. If i select "item B" form the drop down this, "Item B's" phone number would also appear in column 2 and so on. how this is done (if possible) on Excel 2007? I was hoping it could be done from one workbook to another but If it is easier from one worksheet to another then that is fine too.
