I want to change data through a user form and disable users from going around my form. I want users to see the underlying spreadsheet as the form manipulates data.
If I enable a form in Modal mode users can bypass the form. If I use it without modal form I can't change data from my form. I seem to be in a catch 22.
Basically at the moment our static data group use a generic sheet which lists all possible field variables. However, what I want to do is design something which only shows the fields that need to be filled out (ie if the field is shown it needs to be input).
Once the form is filled out it will get saved and sent via email, where it is then printed out and input by our data group. One way I thought about approaching this was to have 18 sheets which are hidden, and which are then selected when a report type is filled out. The other way would be to have IF statements but I think that would get complicated on the one sheet. Just really looking at ideas at this stage.... For example there are 30 fields on the sheet that we use now, but some reports may only need 5 of these fields - I therefore need to "hide" the remaining 25...
I need to save the data of For Eg. A form in Sheet 1, B form in Sheet 2, C form data entry in sheet 3.
what is happening now is that, all the entries are going in the Active Sheet that is open in the excel file. I want to automate the process of data entry, by making it enter data from specific form in specific sheet.
I used a form with textboxes for data input for one of my vb macros. Currently I have the private sub from the form transfer those entries to a remote cell on the spreadsheet, (like in column "HZ"), so that the macro that will actually utilize them can retrieve them. Is there a way to pass that data directly from what is entered in the form in the textboxes to the macro that will actually use them?
I have an Excel sheet which serves as an input form. I would like to set something up where if the user inputs any value into the cell range B12:B100 then they are forced to also enter a value in column J of that same row.
Maybe something could be done where if they enter a value in B12, then they cannot enter a value in B13 before entering a value in cell J12?
I have a spreadsheet in which has many different cells that need to be completed if another cell has data.
Examples
If the user inputs a name into A3, they must complete cells B3 thru D3. Cells B3:D3 contain different entry methods including a drop down list.
On the same sheet, if the user chooses GTD from a drop down list in cell U3, cells BA:BJ must be completed. And if they choose GCI from the drop down list in U3, they must complete cells BK:BR
I'm designing a spreadsheet for users to enter the length of journeys that they've claimed on their expenses. In order to ensure consistency between users, I want to add two drop-down boxes or listboxes that will offer a list of common locations (eg. office A, office B, office C, customer A): one for the start point, and one for the finish point. These will be referenced by a lookup table that will automatically fill in the journey distance.
However, users will also need to be able to input other locations themselves (ie. if a journey starts at home, not at the office). If I use data validation to create the drop-down box, it will only allow the values on the list; is there something that functions like validation in offering the user a range of options, but also allows other values?
I have a spreadsheet that I add to daily with 3 Columns that are always the same. Name, ID number and Phone Number.
Is there a way to make it so that when other people in my department use this that no matter how they enter the name, it is always formatted the same. No matter they enter the ID number and phone number they are always formatted the same. I've tried some variations of data validation but couldn't get to where I need to be.
Attached is a simple example. I'd like the name to always be formatted as Smith, Bob I'd like the ID Number to always be formatted as xxx xx xxx I'd like the Phone Number to always be formatted as xxx xxx xxxx
Below is the existing code that I'm working with and would like to be able to make the ' name' column either Upper or Proper case on entry. I haven't decided which I'm going to use yet.
Set r = Sheet1.Range("A2:C65536") If Not Intersect(Target, r) Is Nothing Then sTgt = Trim(Target.Value) If sTgt = "" Then Exit Sub
Select Case Target.Column Case NmCol If InStr(sTgt, ",") = 0 Then iSpc = InStrRev(sTgt, " ") Target.Value = Mid(sTgt, iSpc + 1) & ", " & Left(sTgt, iSpc - 1) End If
A form loads and the first thing the user is to do is enter a specific date in a text box (preferably in, "mm/dd/yyyy" format.)
Is there any way to set up the text box so that when the form loads, the, "/"'s (slashes) are already in place? And can I set it up so that if the user enters in the date in any other manner aside from, "mm/dd/yyyy", that it will give them an error?
Finally, I want the user's date input to store on a worksheet (in row, "G".) So the first time the user uses the form, they type in a date and it stores the date in the FIRST AVAILABLE CELL IN ROW, "G." (example: "G1") The next time they use the form and type in a date, it is to store in, "G2", then in, "G3", ect. Each time they fill out the form, the new entry is to save in the next row beneath the previous entry.....
For other text boxes and combo boxes I have been using the following code to do this:
Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A" & intRow) = Text.Value (or Combobox.Value - depending on whether it was a text box or a combo box.)
Unfortunately I have NO idea how to apply this logic in regards to text boxes that are to store dates.
I found the following code which works fine until I start to select multiple cells in cell B for deletion etc. At this point it throws up a run-time error 13 type mismatch, which will cause problems when other people start to use the spreadsheet.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Column <> 2 Then Exit Sub If Target.Offset(0, -1) = "" Then Target.Select Application.EnableEvents = False Target = "" Application.EnableEvents = True MsgBox ("You must enter Atlas Part No. first") End If End Sub
I need to force our salespeople to enter information in a cell based on a condition. This is the condition: If I5=3, then I need to move the user to cell I3 with a message that says "Enter miles to site" -- I don't want them to be able to move from the cell until they enter the information. If I5 does not equal 3, then I don't need anything to occur. I need to apply this code to four separate worksheets in the same workbook. Also, they will be entering a number in cell I3, so is okay to leave I3 formatted for Number or General Number? Note: This question is also posted at the following link, but has not yet been answered by that group: http://database.ittoolbox.com/groups...dition-2270643.
I have a series of Userforms that I would like the user to be forced to enter in some sort of information in one of those userform in the series. I do not want it to be submitted blank. Is there a code or a properties toggle to make this possible.
I have a list box in a user form using R2:R3 as Row source.
I need to force the users to choose one of the items and not allow a blank entry to be entered.
I used the code below for the entries however it still allows for a blank to be entered into the Cell.
This part of the code works for Me.sapor = "" Or Me.jobna = "" Or Me.ordernu = "" But not for the next (2) list boxes it allows blanks Or Me.snd = "" Or Me.mcode = ""
Me.Snd and Me.mcode are list boxes.
Code:
If Me.sapor = "" Or Me.jobna = "" Or Me.ordernu = "" Or Me.snd = "" Or Me.mcode = "" MsgBox ("Feilds SAP Number, Job Name, Price, Code and Month Code Must be Completed") Exit Sub
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim rNextCl As Range ' Row count = where the select cell finishes and window box moves to rows over ' offset = howmany cells up or down from the row count
I have a Database and user form, in the user form i have a field named “Vehicle No” this is a combo box from which a user needs to select the Vehicle numbers, and all these are working fine now, I need your help in the following:
When user selects the second field named "Select Vendor name" i need a pop up window which shows all the Vehicles belongs to the vendor which they have selected, and with the popup window user selects the vehicle number then the Vehicle number combo box should be filled.
Currently users have to select by scrolling through Combo box which takes long time and difficult to find by scrolling.
I have a user form that has a combo box "City" two text boxes one called "Flight" and the other "Date". What I'm trying to do is to prevent the user from saving the data input from the user form if any of those three fields is left blank. The code that I have so far checks all of the required fields, if any are left blank a message notifys which field(s) is left blank and return the focus back to that field. But the rest of code also fires.
What I really need is either to stop the code if any fields are blank and return the focus back to the blank field, the user completes the field(s) and clicks the save again, or better yet, pause the code until all the required fields are completed and then complete the save. (There is actually another 200+ lines of code in this sub, but I deleted it to keep the post a little shorter.)
I have created a registration workbook for this year's youth sports league. All of the information is entered into a User Form and separated onto it's appropriate sheet designated by the child's age. Next year, I would like to use this year's workbook to look up returning players.
Will it be possible to add a "lookup" button into my form, or create a lookup program, that once the registrar clicks on the correct player, the information is plugged into the User Form, the registrar adjusts the age and any necessary info, presses enter, and the information is copied into the appropriate category in the new workbook? I haven't worked with User Forms long enough to know if they can be filled in that way, but if this can be done, you are the people who would know.
I'm using a series of user forms for data entry to a workbook, some of them open next stage user form on completion (OK cmd button).
All that is working fine, but I'd like the initial form to close on showing the next one. I've tried adding Unload and Hide commands following the frmInsertEntry.Show (Next stage form), to no avail, but I'd like this user form to close or hide at the end of the sub.
Private Sub cmdContinueType_Click()
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Records").Activate 'Select starting cell in record sheet Range("N3").Select
Do If IsEmpty(ActiveCell) = False Then ' Search for next empty cell ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select End If Loop Until IsEmpty(ActiveCell) = True
If optDrillType = True Then frmDrillEntry.Show Else frmInsertEntry.Show End If
I have Excel file that is linked to Access Database. Everytime the user opens the file, there is pop up message that warns the user we there to enable the macro or to disable it. I want to force the user to enable the macro or even better if I can make disappear this warning and automatically enable the macro. See attached for more details.
I'm trying to force a user to enter a numeric value, (one numeric value between 0 and 8, inclusive) into a range of cells, prior to exiting the spreadsheet.
The range would be D7:D252, and a single value would have to be entered into each range prior to exiting the spreadsheet.
I have user form which allow user to entry their inputs in required boxes (Like TxtFirstName, TxtLastName etc.)
My form is working but which I want is that users should first fill up txtFirstName Text Box. Otherwise we will not able to do edit his/ her name in the last Name Text Box (TxtLastName).
I have two columns, Account Number and Account Type. I already use Data Validation on Account Number to make sure it is numeric and on Account Type to make sure the user picks from a drop-down list. I want it so that if a user inputs an account number, it forces the user to automatically pick from the drop-down menu in the account type column, otherwise post an error.
I am attempting to use an if statement to stop a user from trying to input a listbox as a null value. The if then statement is not working. The listbox value is null but the if statement doesn't react.
If listbox1.Value = Null Then MsgBox "you must select a serial number"
I'm working on a spreadhseet which has several macros that can take up to 5 minutes to run. When the macro(s) complete, I pop up a userform to provide instructions and collect some additional data from the user.
The "problem" is that when the user moves to another application to do other work, the user form remains hidden behind the active app. I've added some text to the status bar to let the users know the processing is done, but they would like something more obvious - so, is there any way I can force focus back to Excel?
