Form Function To Save Worksheet
May 28, 2009Is there something I can program into my form so that when a record is added and the 'add' button is clicked, it not only adds the record to the work sheet but saves the workbook as well.

View 2 Repliesam using Excel 2010 and having issues trying to save a worksheet to a specified file location with the save date....
I have tried several posts form this forum and elsewhere and can't seem to get the macro to do what I want.....
I want to save a 'worksheet' from an open workbook that I use for updating information to the same file path as the workbook with the date the file saved...
How do I save an excel sheet as a fillable form with only certain cells allowable to be filled and than after the form is filled and the automatic calculations(formulas) are done can I save each form seperately.
This is like a student report card.
You will enter students name and his grades and the form will do calculations than i want to save each completed form as its own file
I have a workbook with a list of names ("Roster"). The names are on sheet 1 in column B (about 200 names). I have another workbook with a participation form ("Form"). There is a field on the form for the name - sheet 1, cell A4.
populate the "Form" with the names from the "Roster". Each person should get their own form. Once the name is populated from the "Roster" it should save the "Form" as their name. Then the next person on the "Roster" should have their name populated on the "Form" in that cell and saved as their name, etc.
I've set up a series of linked spreadsheets that feed data to an overall sheet. I work in a school, and each day the staff fill in student data, which then updates back into my overview spreadsheet.
Now the term has finished, I want to be able to store the data, then wipe the spreadsheets so they can be used for the new term (entering student data each day).
(There are about 20 different files I want to save, and don't want to have to copy/paste values for each sheet!)
Imagine I have a form with a few controls on it. And the controls properties are set up at runtime.
Is there any way possible to save the property changes that were made at runtime to the controls themselves? I mean - short of manually editing all the controls at Design time?
This might be easier to explain by example. See dummy code below. Using this example - I want to find something that will save the Caption of CommandButton1 as "TestMe" (rather than have it only temporarily set at runtime).
I have a user form designed and now I would like to be able to program a Command Button to "SAVE" and when it is clicked, I would like to save the results of my fields to another worksheet. I have a defined range that I would like to have the inserted row into?

I am trying to create some vba code that would use input from a form to create a file name that would save the file in the current folder.
e.g. Foghorn Leghorn expenses Aug 10 2008.xls
I am using calendar control named “calendarFinal” and a text box named “txtName” . The text box to show the user the suggested file name is txtFileName.
Among other things, the date from the calendar control gives a date like 08/08/2008 and I suspect that the slashes are going to give me grief.
A confirmation message box would be nice. (vbOk?)
I have code in a worksheet that creates a new worksheet when clicking a button:

What code would I need to accomplish this .
I am using the Column() Function for referencing purposes... what I want this function to do is return the "letter form" of the column position rather than the "number Form"... is there anyway to change this without switching to R1C1 form?
i.e. Column(B4) yields "2"
I want it to give me "B"
I have this offset function working:
=OFFSET(calculos.xlsx!_5260;10;5)
The cell name "5260", is also entered as text in cell A1, in the current workbook (not calculos.xlsx). How do I refer excel to get the text from cell A1, instead of having to enter it manually.
I'm creating a custom function to cut down on redundant code. However, in converting the code to a function so that it may be used in different instances, I'm getting an unexpected error when the code executes.
The error is:
Code:
Object doesn't support this property or method.
Here is my function:
Code:
Public Function chkClick(checkboxName As String, tabName As String, chartName As String, seriesNumber As Long)
Sheets(tabName).ChartObjects(chartName).Activate
If Sheets(tabName).checkboxName.Value = True Then
ActiveChart.FullSeriesCollection(seriesNumber).Select
[code]....
The function checks the status of the checkbox name passed to it. If it's checked, it will show a chart series. If it's not checked, it will hide the chart series. The error comes in referencing the "checkboxName".
How might I need to alter the code so that I can use the form control name as a variable? This is ultimately one of the key components of the function as each control has it's own name.
I'm adding a form to a worksheet for the first. I tried to follow an example from the internet and then adapt for own form but have got lost and don't know where.
Attached is the excel file i am working on. On the summary worksheet i have added a button which works fine and opens up the form i have made.
My problem is it doesn't enter the data into the relevant cells on the relevant worksheets. I think the form should be quite self explanatory.
I have a user form that allows me to add items to the last row in my worksheet via the form. However if I want to manually add something or modify something on the sheet while the user form is open it would not allow this. Is there some properties of the user form I can modification to accommodate this?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a template workbook which I need to prevent anyone making changes and overwriting the original.
I used the following code;
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
If SaveAsUI = False Then
Cancel = True
MsgBox "You cannot save this workbook. Use Save As"
End If
End Sub
This works fine apart from I am then unable to save these changes myself so when the workbook is next opened the code has not been saved.
I currently have a macro which does data mining and saves the workbook in the end. I intend to disable to the save function of the workbook and force the user to use the macro everytime the workbook needs to be saved. this is what i have so far but it does not seem to work. Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim NoSave
NoSave = MsgBox("Changes have to be submitted before the workbook can be saved, Proceed and submit ?", vbYesNo, "Continue?")

I have a data list which needs to be updated by others on a shared drive. I want to protect the worksheet as there is other info on it (advancefilter from the main list). The problem is that the >>Data>>Form tool will open, but all the boxes necessary to update the list are greyed out (New, Delete etc.)
My other option is to create a macro to advance filter out the other data to another worksheet.
I've taken some time to learn about building an excel data entry form. I'm looking to add a find button.
1) users would type in something in the ID text box, then click on "find". The code will then try to find that record in the worksheet(just sheet1).
when it is found, i want the forms to auto-populate values from that row.
right now, the search works except when you are trying to search a value that that is NOT in the worksheet. I'm getting an error message that i've never seen before.

I have created a form that converts latitude / longitude from Decimal Degrees to Degrees Minutes Seconds decimal seconds. I want my coworkers to be able to use the form, but I don't want them to see the excel window/worksheet when they open it up.... I thought I had received an email once that appeared to be an excel file but when you opened it, it was just a form. I have tried all I can think of to no avail.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've only just starting using Excel for anything other than basic calculations and have got a little stuck with a user form. On my attached spreadsheet I am trying to set up a form for staff incident reporting. There is a Contents worksheet and then each incident has it's own detailed worksheet. The user will click on 'create new incident' on the Contents page.
This opens a user form. From this form I want to populate the contents worksheet. I then also want it to populate the relevant incident worksheet. I can populate the contents page but I need help getting the correct Incident worksheet populated at the same time. Hopefully all will become clear running the file.
I want to have a Checkbox (Form) that is in my Worksheet to disable/gray-out once it is selected. I don't want people to be able to uncheck it again. I want them to be forced to click another Checkbox to enable it again.
Example:
Two Checkboxes:
Check Box 1 = "Apply"
Check Box 2 = "Delete"
Once "Apply" is checked, gray it out. This will force a user to click "Delete" in order for the "Apply" button to be enabled again. I do not want a user to click "Apply" once selected as their way of 'deleting' the information.
I have to questions...
1. I have a form that I setup to open when my excel db is opened. How do I get the excel db to minimize or hide so that only the form is open.
2. How to I add minimize and maximize buttons to the forms I have created?
how to get a list of the properties for form control shapes (not control toolbox shapes) that are placed on a worksheet (not on a userform). Eg., a button, checkbox, combobox, etc.
If it's possible, I'm interested in working with properties like "enabled", "caption", etc. that aren't listed on the "Format Control Properties" dialog.
I understand you can edit properties of a form control shape via VBA code (See example below), however, I can't seem to find anything within the object browser about them.
EXAMPLE
With ActiveSheet.Shapes("Scroll Bar 2").ControlFormat
.Min = 10
.Max = 150
End With
Using VBA, does anyone know how I can change what is selected in a listbox that is a form control on a worksheet, not on a userform?

This tracker would have the data collection in a seperate excel worksheet using forms (embedded), where all of the information initially goes, then with the click of an "Add" button, it formats the information in the cells in the appropriate worksheet (ie: good data goes to the worksheet called "Good" and vice versa for "Bad"), clearing the data from the forms, and preparing for the next bit of information.

how to add a drop down list while using the excel form for data entry.
Basically I am trying to make it easy for a non technical person to add ebay items to a spreadsheet. This sheet is them used in sixbit software to upload to ebay.
All of these items will have some constants (such as length of listing or listing type etc) but selected from a small list i.e they can ONLY be certain times or types for example . So a list is very important to make sure there are no errors but also for speed.
The sheet has a number of headings so when I select the form function in excel the box comes up with the desired entry boxes just fine but I cant get a list to select from even when I have already created a drop down list in excel sheet.
i want to import a file called "export" into my work sheet, I recorded this macro
Sheets.Add
ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add(Filename:= _
"C:Documents and SettingsmattDesktopexport.csv", Link:=False, _
DisplayAsIcon:=False).Select
which works as long as it is on matt's pc and on my desktop, what i need is to import the file from the same folder the work sheet is stored in, that way it will work on any pc?
