How To Create Multiple Checkbox Lists In Each Cell
Feb 10, 2014
I would like to know if there's a way to create a checkbox list in a cell that influences other cells:
For example, I would have column A as "Materials Accepted", and each cell would have a dropdown list with the options "Wood", "Drywall", and "Metal", in checkbox format. Then to the right of that, I would have each of the Materials as actual columns so that column B is "Wood", column C is "Drywall", and column D is "Metal".
The way I would want it to work from there is that whatever options I select from the dropdown, it would then put a TRUE flag in that column. So if I select "Wood" and "Metal" on the dropdown checkbox list, columns B and D would both read TRUE on that particular row.
Just wondering if something like this is possible, as I wanted to apply this concept to a much larger scale (About 29 columns for 29 Materials, scrolling left and right is really time consuming). So far I've only seen guides on how to create a SINGLE checkbox on a row, and none with multiple checkboxes that would function in this manner.

I have values in Worksheet 1, spread over A1:D25 and A200: D250.
In worksheet2 I have values again from A1:D25 and A200:D250.
Is is possible to only get the unique values of those 4 ranges with the advanced filter? They all need to be shown in eg worksheet 3 starting in A1, (so kinda merged in a sense)?
Is that a thing more for a UDF, or is there a excel function/option that does exactly that?
I have been looking for ages for that kind of function/option, since I thought it must be possible. But this sure does not look to be a standard functionality, or is it?
Is there a (free) add-in that might do this kind of thing?
I found this code on some office help page:
Sub SortAllRangeData()
' Place column header for temporary sort area.
Range("IV1").Value = "Numbers"
It kinda does what I needed, but it lists the actual data in the same spot it used to be. I want to be able to list the sorting in a different column on a different sheet and in 1 column only. Is this difficult to modify so it becomes a UDF or is this something totally different?

I expect to deploy over 200 iterations of a workbook (templates if you will) containing a mix of up to one hundred different attributes each with its own list of valid values. My problem is the attributes don't always default to the same column in every template workbook. Therefore, to make things easier for users I would like to create attribute valid value dropdown lists on the fly using the "Valid Values' table as the source data (see the attached). Since the attribute names will be the same from one template workbook to the next, I wanted to come up with a macro that would reference a source table (a separate workbook) containing all valid values for all attributes which users would be required to download to their local machine.
See the attached example workbooks and an example of a "Valid Values" list. Here's what needs to happen: When a user opens template workbook #1 I need drop down lists containing the valid values for the attributes contained in cell B3 (User Code),C3 (Department) and D3 (Category). Likewise, when another user opens template workbook #2, I need drop down lists containing the valid values in cell B2 (Department), C3 (Group), D3 (Category), E3 (Level), F3 (Material) and G3 (User Code). Notice that "Department", "Category" and "User Code" are data elements common between both workbooks but resident in different columns.

I cant seem to find the correct syntax for creating 14 validation lists using array members as the source of the named ranged. The validation lists are stored on a different worksheet, the Named Ranges are created fine, as are the ranges that are having the validation applied. The Syntax I am having a problem with is
Public Sub assignDVList(WSD As Worksheet, sListName As String)
Dim DVListName As String
DVListName = "DV" & sListName
Application.Goto Reference:=sListName
With Selection.Validation
.Delete
.Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Operator:= _
xlBetween, Formula1:="=" & DVListName
It is the Formula1:="=" & DVListName that is creating the headache. The sub is called as the array moves through the columns, using the header row as the Name for the Named Range, and the data Validation worksheet uses the same naming except it has DV in front.

I have an assigned value of 10 to each checkbox that is checked. If the checkbox is selected I want to automatically sum the totals in a cell on my active sheet. Checkboxes are activeX placed directly on a worksheet. I currently have a work around but considering the number of checkboxes I have, coding is going to be a nightmare as I would have to code each one separately. Right now I am summing each box on another sheet and linking the summed total back to active sheet.
[Code] ....
I would like to do all check boxes with one code and sum the total in the active sheet in cell "I7". The set of checkboxes is 1 to 26.

I was just given a task at the office of creating a in depth excel spreadsheet. Here is what I need:
I have one drop down list that represents the state a person lives in.
I have another drop down list that represents the the type of property it is.
If you select CA in drop down 1 and Multi Family in drop down 2 you get the end result in (specific) cell.
Then if you select AZ in drop down 1 and SFR in drop down 2 you get different end result in named cell.
How can I get items within 2 different drop down list to call up the end result in a 3rd cell?

how best to do this (bare with me I'm not quite a pro at excel yet!). I'll attach my doc (JMP Excel Forum) so you know what I'm taking about. I've set up the data to work in a similar way to this, as you can see I've a table set up (Appliance Sheet) which feeds information to the Main Sheet which contains the drop down lists.
What I need it to do is autofill the wattage column (Main!F8 onwards) with the wattage for the device as described in Appliance!N3 or N4 for example. For the wattage column to equal 28 (equivalent to Appliance!N3) then the following would show in the dropdown selections Type>Computers SubCategory>Monitors Device>BENQ G2222HDL Status>On
Is there a way to do this with the set up I have?
I did have a previous version of the whole worksheet that each Device had its own table and I looked up the wattage using and If formula to lookup a info on the device and knowing where to look it up based on the subcategory
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(D7,IF('Main UI'!C7="Heating_Cooling",Appliances!$A$7:$B$14, IF('Main UI'!C7="Kitchen_Bathroom",Appliances!$A$16:$B$27,IF('Main UI'!C7="Monitors",Appliances!$A$52:$B$62,IF(C7="Computers",Appliances!$A$64:$B$68,........
And I got it to work but it was getting to cumbersome to add in new devices and update the formulas. If attached that doc (OLD) so you know what I'm talking about. The last two sheets are the same sheets that make up the new document (JMP Excel Forum)OLD.xlsm
I really prefer the new way I've got it set up. Its easier to add new information or options to the dropdown list

Here is a screenshot of a mockup I did in paint - [URL]
Basically on each row, I would select a number of Materials, and the following columns for those Materials would populate TRUE for the ones that I selected on that row. This was just an example, but I would scale this up to around 30 Materials for hundreds of rows/entries.

I currently have a macro which will copy a row of data from one sheet and paste it into the first blank row on another sheet "Invoices".
Now I want to write some code that will insert a checkbox to the left of each new row of data, (presumably in column A). I'm getting confused because I have never worked with checkboxes before and when I search the net for info. I'm getting some hits on Userforms (which I don't want), others on ActiveX controls and still others on form controls (what I think I need).
Here is some more info on what I'll be doing with them:
I am writing a second macro to see which boxes are checked. For any checked boxes I want the respective data to be sent to a mail merge and then the entire row, data and checkbox, to be deleted.
This adds a minor complication because if I delete a row, then all rows and checkboxes below it will need to move up. Is this something that will happen naturally or do I need to create some special code to handle that.
The final complication is that the data is data is going to sorted sometime between the creation of the checkbox and its later deletion. I'm wondering whether its necessary to keep a checkbox associated with a particular row, or if I can just tell the checkbox to figure out which row it exists at.
So, to sum up. I need to:
First - Learn how to create a checkbox
Second - Scan through all existing checkboxes and see which ones are checked
Third - Delete rows and sort the data while maintaining one checkbox for each row of data.

Could anyone please help me frame a vb code for the below explanation?
I have a sheet where in some terms are provided. Users have to open this sheet and check its description. After going through all the terms, they have to select the required terms using a checkbox given beside these terms. After checking the reqd. boxes, they would click on 'Submit' at the end of the sheet.
Once Submit is clicked, a new excel workbook should open up with the selected terms as various column headers.

I have a userform with 17 checkboxes that their captions should correspond with column A range ("A2:A18) on a worksheet.
Is there a way in userform_initialize, or activate, to create the captions from that range?
I could type the code 17 times like;
Code:
me.checkbox1.caption = wb.worksheets("area").range("a2").value
I was curious to know if it could be looped? Textboxes on the same userform.

I need to create a list of all available variations from 2 lists. Example, I have a list of data that has 50 entries in it, and another list that has 300. I need to create a list of all options to import into a system that would include all 1500 options if you were to make a list of all possible combinations of the 2 lists of data...
EG. list 1 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and list 2 = a b c d e
Final list would be
1a
2a
3a
4a
5a
1b
2b
3b
4b
5b
1c
2c
3c

I am creating a class list from a list of all students and classes. Names of students are in column A, their class name is in column B. In another sheet I would like to show a list of names from one particular class, say "Y8/En1".
Using a filter on the original list isn't an option as I will need it to pull/show other things eventually.

In my userform I have a list of check box's that can be selected. Currently if more than one is selected, they will appear in the spread sheet in the same line one after another with a space between them. How do I make it so they either appear with a comma appearing after each, so the next value appears on the next line below or most perferably the cell turning to a drop down list with the values?
Current code
VB:
If CheckBox1.Value = True Then ws.Cells(iRow, 2).Value = ws.Cells(iRow, 2).Value & " " & CheckBox1.Caption
If CheckBox2.Value = True Then ws.Cells(iRow, 2).Value = ws.Cells(iRow, 2).Value & " " & CheckBox2.Caption
If CheckBox3.Value = True Then ws.Cells(iRow, 2).Value = ws.Cells(iRow, 2).Value & " " & CheckBox3.Caption
If CheckBox4.Value = True Then ws.Cells(iRow, 2).Value = ws.Cells(iRow, 2).Value & " " & CheckBox4.Caption
If CheckBox5.Value = True Then ws.Cells(iRow, 2).Value = ws.Cells(iRow, 2).Value & " " & CheckBox5.Caption
If CheckBox6.Value = True Then ws.Cells(iRow, 2).Value = ws.Cells(iRow, 2).Value & " " & CheckBox6.Caption

I'm trying to create a dynamic msgbox that will display what data has been updated based on checkbox selections in the userform. I've named my checkboxes as Carey, Keith, and Juliet.
Ideally if only Carey's data has been updated, I'd like the msgbox to say
' Data has been Updated for:
- Carey '
If Carey and Keith's data has been updated, I'd like the msgbox to say
'Data has been Updated for:
- Carey
- Keith '
etc.
MsgBox ("Data has been Updated for:" & vbnewline & _
If CAREY.Value =true then "- Carey" End if & vbnewline & _
If KEITH.Value =true then "- KEITH" End if & vbnewline & _
If JULIET.Value =true then "- Juliet" End if & ")

I have been working on a template using validation tool so as to create drop down lists. Now I have to select data from a combination of two fields.
Example: I need info from Dataset A and Dataset B to create a new drop down list from Dataset C.
I tried with If AND formula =IF(AND(B4="Test";B6="de10");"ok";"no") where due to the selected values I got Ok as a return answer. However I need to have a dropdown list of relevant values selected and I am having some issues.
When I name my group (Dataset C) as DE10 so that it can be linked to DE10 value (dataset B) so that I can do a validation then I get an error as DE10 is an excel field name; therefore I thought of the IF AND solution as I was thinking of doing so that I can name Dataset C as XYZ (instead of DE10) on the data sheet however I am having some trouble in getting the drop down list to work.
Basically I need a drop down list from dataset C when certain info is picked from Dataset A and Dataset B.

We have a proposal generation tool that we use that is based in Excel, and it works very well indeed. However, we're wanting to add a 'Custom Contract Generator' tab to the spreadsheet, and I'm at a loss with how to build it.
What it needs to do is :
- Allow the end user to select which contract clauses are required for the proposal they are working on, ideally via a range of dropdown boxes.
- Use that selection of clauses via dropdown box to create a compiled, formatted text list made up of those clauses.
- Enter that information into a landscape orientation Excel tab in such a manner as allows for tidy, business-suitable printing.
In short, I want the ability to pick what clauses we want to use, and have Excel generate a custom contract Terms and Conditions page based on my selection. And I've no idea where to start.

I have been using Excel to create equipment lists for my work. The forum has helped me by creating a visual basic macro to create a 'final list' sheet compiled from the other source worksheets.
On my 'final list' sheet I need the first 10 rows to be left out of the macro’s so that I can add header information like job reference etc. I have tried altering the visual basic code by adjusting the row numbers in it so that it starts at row 10 but this keep's on producing error codes. This is due to my limited knowledege of what each line does.
I also wish to be able to paste new equipment into the final list sheet. When I do this at the moment the code does not recognise it is there and does not carry the information accross back into the source sheet. It is the same when I block select an area and delete the code does not recognise I have done this which is fustrating.

if there was a way to automatically add each student to a class list as their information is inputted. What i mean is, after input Sally Student in the main enrollment list she would automatically go to the class list for the class she has chosen.
I have attached a sample workbook with my desired results. Basically what i want to do is make this easier for those in charge to get the class lists from the main list without having to copy and past all the time.
The class lists are in the tabs in the workbook.

I'm using Excel 2010. I have a workbook that has six or seven worksheets in it. Each worksheet has a header row, and then lists of clients at the clinic where I work. The columns are last name, first name, medicaid #, social security #, DOB. We use these lists every month to verify that each client has Medicaid for the month. Therefore, there are also columns with names like April, May, June where we mark yes or no for each client. Some of the worksheets also have information about the clients' guardian, phone number, etc., but not every worksheet has those. (I can't show you the worksheets b/c of federal privacy laws, of course.)
I really, really want a worksheet that's a master list of the data from each of the existing worksheets, and I'd like to keep it synced to the source worksheets. I'd love it if I could also add a column telling me which of the source worksheets the data originally came from.
I've tried a few things to make it happen, but nothing has worked.
I've tried using the Consolidate function built into Excel as well, but that only works with numbers, not text, and it wants to manipulate the numbers instead of just copying them over.
I've found several macros online that should have worked (including one from this site) but that I wasn't able to install to my worksheet. I followed all the steps for installation, and throught it worked, but when I went back to the Excel file to run the macro, the list of available macros remained emptpy.
Is it possible that corporate IT has disabled the ability to install macros? Is there somewhere in Options were I need to go to turn Macros on?

I have a list of numbers that I want to identify the highest and second highest numbers and create a mathematic result.
For example.
I lets say I have 15 stocks "B19:P19" I have X amount of money to invest "Q21" I want to invest 85% of Q21 in the highest of B19:P19 and 15% in the second highest. If there are 2 highest that are tied I want to split the 85% of Q21. SO far I have been able to identify the Highest and show it at 85% of Q21 with this =IF(B19=(MAX(B19:P19)),(Q21*0.85)) but I am not sure how to get the rest of it to do what I want.
