View 2 RepliesIm having trouble with a combo box with a range of dates as the drop down list.
The Named Range it is connected to is as below
01-01-10
02-01-10
03-01-10
Etc
But when i run the user form the Combobox drop down box show as below
40179
40180
40181
Etc.
When i Select one the combo box does then Show the list in date format
How can i make the dropdown list show in date format also below is the code i currently have for the combobox
Private Sub ComboBox4_DropButt*******()
ComboBox4.List = Application.WorksheetFunction.Transpose(ThisWorkbook.Names("Date").RefersToRange)
ComboBox4.Value = Format(ComboBox4.Value, "dd/mm/yy")
End Sub
I have a (form control) combo box in my worksheet. Inside the combo box are several different ways a data set might be sorted. I would like to refer to the current selection of the combo box in my VBA code because I have a macro which executes differently based on the selection in the combo box.
I have found this piece of code which I know executes when the combo box selection is changed.
Sub DropDown1_Change()
However, I still do not know how to refer to the value of the current selection.
Below was my attempt to assign the current selection to a name, ComboValue, that I created:
Sub DropDown1_Change()
Names("ComboValue").value = ComboBox1
End Sub
Strangely, this code executes once, but removes the name I created. It then returns an error on subsequent runs.
I have a workbook which when opened connects to an external datasource (excel file) and downloads a table of information. While this is happening I have a userform which shows which has a lable saying (connecting to datasource, please wait....). However, when I open the workbook, the userform shows but the labels do not show, the userform just appears white.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've built the code for a Template form for data entry of a survey. Through Control Toolbox I've created the form and used several textboxes, option buttons, checkboxes and COMBO boxes this one in turn being my trouble.
- Sheet one is called "Data" (this is the place where all inserted information is going to be stored
- Sheet two: "Variables" (here is where I keep the required values for the como boxes - inserted manually apriorely...
Question: What is the code to assing to the combo boxes in order to have the values from the sheet "Variables" of the range A1:A4 - use the comboboxq2 for referee, I'll do the others
P.S. see the code up to now:
Private Sub CommandButtonN_Click()
Dim eRow As Long
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim inf As WorksheetFunction
Set ws = Worksheets("Data")
Set ws = Worksheets("Variables")
' Find first empty row in database survey
eRow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row ................
I have formatted several cells with an Accounting style. However, the dollar sign doesn't show up until I click in the command line.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a cell using datavalidation. I would like the zoom of the spreadsheet to be 60% but this makes the validation box very tiny. I know that there is no way to format a validation bax -
So, I used code found at [url]
to create a combobox over the datavalidation cell.
Now I cannot figure out how to format the combobox for date format MMMYY.
Well, that and adding the code to the tab rather than with the rest of my macros - seems to break my other macros.
How do I format the text in an ActiveX combo box? I would like to increase the font.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to control the amount of decimals allowed by the entry of another column same row so I do not have to format the cells everytime to get the correct decimal places. I need all my data in one table so I can do pivot tables.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use a Monthview Control to put a date in a textbox and need the format to be in 'dd mmmm yyyy'.
The problem is that whilst I can get the date in that format, it is US format - so it is putting today in as '05 March 2013'.
I am trying to create a text box using the format control, however, everytime I click on the box it go to visual basic editor. I believe I'm missing something. I am not familiar with visual basic.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am using the VBA Chart Control and I have the following instruction;
Me.ChartSpace1.Axes(ChartAxisPositionEnum.chAxisPositionCategory).Numb erFormat = "mm/dd/yy"
The chart is a "chChartTypeLine". the problem is that i cannot change the format of the X-Axis to a Date (mm/dd/yy) format no matter what I try? I keeps wanting to keep it as "General", here is the code;
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim ser As ChSeries
Dim cht As ChChart
Dim MinValue As Double
Dim MaxValue As Double
MinValue = Sheet1.Range("D2").Value + 10
MaxValue = Sheet1.Range("A2").Value
I made a pivot chart. On the X axis are days of the year. I would like the axis to give the months rather than the days, because it is easier to read. But when I select the chart's axis, I don't have acces to any "number" sheet in the "Axis format" section. I could just change the scale.
ActiveChart.Axes(xlCategory).Select
With Selection.TickLabels
.Alignment = xlCenter
. Offset = 100
.ReadingOrder = xlContext
.Orientation = 45
.NumberFormat = "[$-41D]mmmm;@" 'I added this line
End With
ActiveChart.HasPivotFields = False
I want to make a combo box in excel that, if i select it the sheet inside the combo box will appear.

If i click combo box and i choose sheet3 the sheet3 will appear.
How can i do this? theirs a macro code to use?
The first combo box is on a userform so that a subject can be selected

I'm seeking what I would need to replace Line1 with.
Within the ComboBox properties, is there anyway to control after "enter" his hit, you move to the right instead of down (similar to the edit under Tools/Options)?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have to create two combo boxes and when a user selects a value from one combo box, the values should get changed in the other combo box.
For example : if one combo box has values like "c/c++ programming" "java programming" and so on.. ... i would like to display the authors recommended (corresponding to combo box1) in the combo box 2.
I have created a userform within VBA which has a TreeView Control and a Spreadsheet control on it.
I have populated the TreeView control with data and what I want to be able to do is to drag the nodes off the TreeView control to the spreadsheet control.
I can drag onto a normal worksheet but not onto the spreadsheet control (the no drop mouse pointer keeps showing).
How do I determine which control the user is currently modifying on a multipage form (either changing, enterying or exiting the specific control). when I use "userform1.activecontrol" i get "multipage1" as the control name but I need the actual control on the specific active multipage. (also the .TABINDEX is for the multipage regardless of the on-page control) I use a generic data-field change SUBroutine so need the control name (and the TABINDEX) to provide my SELECT CASE. (so every fieldname_CHANGE calls the same SUB [with no parameters])

View 2 Replies View RelatedHas anyone out their ever seen an Calendar type of control totally built in an Excel vba UserForm?
My problem that I’ve tried to resolve for some time is utilizing some type of pop-up calendar to eliminate format issues in my published Excel forms. I have tried a number of calendar controls but all have to be registered on the local machine and this cannot be guarantied for every machine.
If someone could direct me to a vba UserForm that has this built in that might do the trick. Or is their another way to deal with this?
I have 2 macros: 1 controlled by a checkbox activex (PA_03) and the other a combobox (PA_03_rows) in a worksheet. I display the results from PA_03, and the user than then increase or decrease the number by using the combobox. But when I change the value (PA_03_rows.value = x) it causes the macro to jump to the macro.
I don't think it did initially, but it does now. According to another post, I saw it shouldn't do it! Is there something I'm just not seeing here?
Private Sub PA_03_Click()
Dim message, title, default, numberRows
Dim PA_rows As Integer
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
TakeFocusOnClick = False
Worksheets("sheet1").Select
ActiveSheet. Range("a15").Select
If PA_03.Value = True Then Goto Unhide:
If PA_03.Value = False Then Goto Hide:
Unhide:
message = "Enter the number of input rows required (1 to 50)"
title = "Non-Featured Standard Input"
default = "1"
I have a tab within a workbook where i want the user to copy a different spreadsheet into and then press a macro button to run some code, however after this button has been pressed i want this one tab to show any changes that have been made to it, i.e make the cell red or something just so i can keep track of manual adjustemnts.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have used and adapted the following code for my sheet:
http://www.vbaexpress.com/kb/getarticle.php?kb_id=824
But this combo-box only appears when I change from and back to the first sheet. I would like to either let the combobox appear
-when I open the file or
-when I click anywhere in the first sheet (can be a specific cell, or not)
Another solution would be to "fix" the combobox to a specific cell, ie not make it pop up anymore but just have it there.
I am having a few problems trying to amend the code so that it only uses the text box and combo box below. Unfortunately I am having a few problems. I am new and have amended this spreadsheet / code from another user on this site.
When I delete the combo box on the right, using developer mode, a run time error occurs.
I've got a worksheet which uses comboboxes at certain points for users to input data. At other points in the sheet they are entering directly into cells.
I've got the sheet protected, with the input cells unlocked so that it is possible to jump to them using the tab key.
However, I can't seem to make the tab key jump to any of the comboboxes. Ideally I'd like to set the full order for the tab key so that it jumps between input cells and comboboxes at the required stage.
I am trying to set-up a database where a list of people are trained on different items of equipment.
Is there anyway of doing this example please?
John is selected from a drop down box.
If he is trained on certain equipment, the box will turn green automatically. If he is not, the box will be red.
I am assuming, I will have a separate sheet housing all the names and what areas they are trained in.
