I have a sheet with 30 textboxes made with the drawing toolbar. The user enters data, then clicks on a button which formats the page to adjust row size to match amount of info. I am having trouble finding the code to store the currently selected textbox in a variable so that I can place the focus back to the same textbox when the macro ends. Can anyone help me with the code to get the active textbox?
View 9 RepliesI have a macro that runs when a text box is clicked and searches in another excel sheet for a cell with a specified value. My problem is that I specify the string to search for in the code and I would like it to search for the string in the text box that gets clicked.
Here is what I have right now: ...
I know that I can enter =$A$1 in a text box. But is there any way to concatenate more data with it. I would like to hase something like.
="Bill " & $A$1 & " Gates"
but Excel will not allow.
Is there anyway to automatically update a value in a cell to a texbox?
Eg
In sheet1, there is a value of 2.3 in cell A1.
In sheet2, I have a textbox created from the Drawing Toolbox.
The content in the textbox would always be " Total (Sheet1.A1.value) Months"
I am attempting to format some TextBoxes from within a For/Next loop. I need a way to check which TextBox is the active TextBox in the loop. Using i as the variable, I came up with this code snippet: Me.Controls("TB" & i).Text = Format("TB" & i, "mm/dd/yy")
If i = 3, this gives me in TextBox3 (which is called TB3) the text 'TB3' and not the value of what is in TB3. It has got to bo something simple, I just can't see it!!!
I'm using Excel 2007 and I am taking the contents of various user entered cells and creating drawing textboxes to display this data using VBA. How would I get VBA to resize the width of the textbox so that the text is displayed correctly in the textbox i.e. there will be variable lengths of text in the cells so I currenly can read the full contents?

I wanted that after a user will choose a job code the job code will be added in to the active userform with the textbox named txtsejobcode1.
I could build this:

But in the line with Combobox I'm getting a error 438
Run Time error 438 Object doesn't support this property or method.
I am trying to do the following.
When Userform2 fires up - there is a textbox.
I would like the textbox1 to be filled by:
Taking the Selected or Active Cell in Sheets("positions"), eg, L5
but then finding the exact Cell match in Sheets("price"), eg, also L5
and placing this cells Value in Textbox1.
The 2 sheets are exact mirrors but contain different data.
I need to use the Textbox ControlSource in some forms to read specific data from worksheets, different source sheet for each form. How do I tell the ControlSource to look at a specific cell in a specific sheet, rather than just the active sheet? I want to do this using the properties of the Textbox rather than VBA.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a userform with a textbox and a command button. I have used data validations on the textbox. Clicking the command button saves the data in the worksheet. It works well if the user hits tab, enter or down arrow key after entering the data. The problem is, the textbox validations fail to get executed if the focus stays on the textbox and command button is pressed. I want the command button to be disabled until the user has moved the focus away from the textbox -there by executing the validations!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am working on a addin UserForm to quickly format cell text, especially only select characters in a cell. I have this functional in a modal setting working with the active cell when I activate the UserForm. What I would like to be able to do is to work in excel without having to close the Userform and have the textbox update with each new cell. I have changed the UserForm properties to ShowModal = false which gets the first half. However the textbox will only show the cell value I started with.
VB:
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
TextBox1.Text = ActiveCell
End Sub
[Code]...
why the text box "txtjobnum" wont populate with the active cell in my "COMPLAINTS" sheet. The green code below is in the userform and the red text below that is in module 3.

I have created an excel worksheet that will provide budgeting and estimating tools for my project managers. All data used to be manual entry and took a good while to complete. I am trying to automate the process with VBA.
I created a UserForm called InfoVerify1. On that form I have TextBox 1 - 10. When the UF opens, the boxes display project information from my worksheet called "Basis of Estimate", also known as Sheet26.
The TextBox1 ControlSource is set to "E4". When I run the macro with Sheet26 active, the proper information fills in. However, when I am on the Start page or any other worksheet and I run the macro, it tries to fill in the text boxes with E4, etc, from the active sheet. I tried changing the ControlSource to "Sheet26,E4" or any combo thereof with only error messages.
how to get it to refer to a cell on a particular worksheet and hold to that worksheet no matter which sheet I am on at the time I run the Userform?
I am working with a VBA userform and several textbox's, setting SetFocus and or TabIndex doesn't leave the box ready to accept input and there is no cursor shown to indicate it is ready to accept input.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've recently got a new computer and this problem is driving me nuts.
When I click view!toolbars!drawing, nothing happens. No drawing toolbar appears at the bottom of the screen where it used to be. There's a small "drawing toolbar" icon on the main toolbar, but whether this is depressed or not makes no difference either.
I understand this may be changed in the 2007 version, but I’m using Excel 2000
I want to have 2 cells where I can enter 2 numbers (length & height) so that a grid can be plotted. For example, a big sheet of paper size is length 30" x height 8", if first number is 10" (length) is entered, it will plot 3 lines across 30" (cos 30" divided by 10" equals to 3) and if I enter 2" (height) on 8", it will then cut it into 4". Attached a file for better understanding.
View 14 Replies View RelatedIn my attached sheet I've to find out final result in Column "F" (green shaded). My boss many times a year increases salary by certain percentage (say 30% or 40%) which is given in "E" column. After that I need to adjust it according to Pay Scale given in right side. For example one Executive's salary reaches 19880 after % increase. Now in pay scale we see in executive (row no. 13) it crosses 19800 so his final salary should be next upper value i.e 20600 (if it reached to 20700 after % increase, then his final salary could be 21400). That is final salary should be multiple of designation's increment plus minimum gross salary (Here 800X10=8000+11800=19800, since it exceed by 800, so salary should be 800X11=8800+11800=20600)
So we can either pull data from right side table or we can give formula in "F" column to get the required result.

I want to use VBA to update a drawing object's color, such as a circle.
For example, pretend I am counting sheep and I need to know when I have reached the maximum count by the visual aide of a stoplight. The script in my head reads: If the max. count of the sheep is less than 5, then the stoplight is green. If the max. count of the sheep is equal to 5, then the stoplight is yellow. If the max. count of the sheep is greater than 5, then the stoplight is red.
Is there a way to do such a thing on excel and with VBA?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet with 27,000+ rows. Item numbers are listed in column J and quantities in column E. The rest of the data on the sheet is not needed. An item number may be listed multiple times. I'm trying to create a new sheet that lists each item number once with the sum of all the quantities associated with that number. The data is sorted so all "like" item numbers are listed in consecutive rows.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am working on a huge amount of data and want to analyse that data through charts because charts are quick representation of the data and save a lot of time. I got some code from my friend, to read each row in a worksheet and plotted the corresponding chart on the new worksheet each time i.e., each row has one chart which is plotted on new worksheet each time.
But I don't want it to plot the chart on the new worksheet. I want it to plot the chart on the same worksheet. In my case there are always more than 30 rows, so it should draw 30 charts on the same worksheet in which 30 rows are written.
Here is the code which plots charts on the multiple sheets
Code:
Sub LineCharts()
Dim Ws As Worksheet
Dim NewWs As Worksheet
Dim cht As Chart
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim CurrRow As Long
Set Ws = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet3")
LastRow = Ws.Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row
