How To Do Pull-Down Menu With Colored Graphics Icon?

Jun 18, 2009

I'm trying to do a pull down menu with three selections - green,yellow, and red dots? I set up the data validation and referred it to a list. That is under Data Validation -> Settings -> Allow: List; Source: a range of cells where I put 3 colored dots(graphics). Now in the pull down menu when I select the first choice, it just gives me a black dot. The second choice gives me the same black dot. And so does the 3rd choice gives me a black dot.

So, how do I carry the 3 colored dots over? Or it's not possible using the Data Validation approach? If not what is the best and easiest way to go about doing this....

Allow Users To Add In A Loaction For A Pull Down Menu

Jan 1, 2009

I want to create a code that will allow my users to add in a loaction for a pull down menu. I have the pull downs and named ranges all set up. I just now need the code which will promp them message boxes for inputs as well as have the macro insert and paste in their inputs enlarging the named ranges.

Allsheets are password protected and the password is "techedit".

the first sheets name is: "DOR" and the seconds sheets name is :Menus (hidden)".

I need the first message box to ask the user "Name of Client?".
I then need the second message box to ask the user: "Name of Platform?".
And finally I need the thrid message box to ask users: "Well names on Platform?"

I then want the macro to go to the sheet named "Menus (hidden)" and insert the platform name (answer from question 2) followed by the names of the wells (answer from question 3), each well being on its own row directly below the platform name, into the named range called "alllocations". this should be inserted into the bottom of the range.

The macro then needs to expand the range of "alllocations" to include the newly inserted rows. It also needs to define a new range for the newly added well names. The name of this range should be the answer to question 2.

once that is done the macro should take the answer to question 1 and insert it into a named range of "clientnames", as well as change the range of "clientnames" to now include the newly added client name.

And finally take the location name and add it a range called "locations", it should also change the range Locations" to now include the newly added location.

Pull Down Menu Text Selection Linked To Other Cells

Jul 17, 2006

When selecting from a list of text items in a pull down menu in a cell how can you link that change to other cells to effect a change in them. An example would be if the pull down menu was in cell A1 and as a result of the text selected to be shown in A1 resulted in a need for the text in C3 to be changed as well as the formula in cell D3 to be change which will result in a numeric answer in cell D3. Not all of the choices in cell A1 will require that the text and formula be change in cell C3 and D3.

Coding For Populating Data From A Pull-down Menu - A Text Box By (Clicking)

Aug 28, 2008

In excel, I have created a table containing macro pull-down menus and text boxes.

The question I have is this:

In the properties table for my pull-down menu, I have the “ListFillRange” filled with the correct range of cells containing the data that I wanted stored in it.

The problem/solution I am having/wanting is to have not just one selection present, but many (to show up in the text box directly below it) since there will be some data that have many sub-data that need to be visible for the person who will be testing whatever…

All in all, I would like to know if there is a code that I can write in the Visual Basic window or the macro “view code” window that will allow the text box below to be filled with the information that is clicked on from its corresponding pull-down menu. Is this possible?

Using Command Button And VBA To Create Summary Reports Relative To Pull Down Menu?

Sep 16, 2012

See attached file - I would like to use the "Create Parts issue Report" Button to create worksheet titled "Parts Issue Report" based on the pulldown menu in cell B1 tab "Vehicle data" so each pulll down will generate a different "Parts Issue Report" when clicking the "Create Parts Issue Report" button. I think it needs to be a looping VBA to go thru the "Vehicle Data" rows and columns looking for the keywords "late" or past" as I only want a report created on that criteria. The output criteria I have label in the tab "Parts Issue Report" I can explain further if needed.

Email Icon In Spreadsheet As Per Email Icon In Quick Access Toolbar

Aug 20, 2014

I need to send out an order form (spreadsheet) to 100's of people that need to complete the form and email back to me as an attachment. If I was completing the order form myself I would use the "email" icon that I have pinned to my Quick Access Toolbar (QAT). However, most of the recipients don't even know the Toolbar exists.

Is there a way I can insert an icon / hyperlink in the spreadsheet that does the same thing as the QAT icon. I can insert text to say "click here to email your order" (or similar).

I need to keep it in an excel format and an icon is so much better that asking them to save to their hard-drive and attach to an email, etc.

The QAT icon is exactly what is needed but I need to provide a spreadsheet that works for folk who haven't got the icon.

Menu Bar/Navigation :: Tool That Creates A Menu Bar Or Code?

Oct 20, 2009

I have a workbook with multiple sheets. Is there a tool that creates a menu bar or code that I can add that would support navigation?

My goal is to have something with approximately 4 options (buttons?). They would link to 4 different sheets that serve as indexes within the workbook.

I know I can add a control like a button to a given sheet that would take the user to given sheet when clicked, but can I make the button 'float' above all the sheets, or add to a menu bar, or something? I just don't want to have to add the button to every sheet in the workbook.

I am looking for something simple/easy, and am not looking for anybody to do the work. I just have no idea on how to approach the problem.

Chart Menu Bar Won't Change To Data Menu Bar

Apr 26, 2007

my worksheet menu bar is displaying the ' Chart' menu no matter what I do. Not only do I have no charts in the workbook, (verified this by: )

For Each ws In Worksheets

ws.Select
MsgBox ActiveSheet.ChartObjects.Count

Next ws

but adding worksheets, selecting various parts of a worksheet, creating a chart and deleting it, and everything else I've tried has no effect.

One interesting thing - the first chart I added (to test if it would 'unstick' itself upon deletion of the new chart) was named 'Chart 2', implying there was a chart1 that existed previously.... although I am fairly certain I never added a chart to this workbook at any point.

Also, the menu bar is working fine in other workbooks, and changes to chart and back to data like normal.

Counting Menu Items In Menu Bar

May 20, 2006

Suppose I delete a (unknown) number of items from the Worksheet Menu Bar. This can vary because of the fact that my excel sheet is being used by a different number of people, all with a different Worksheet Menu Bar configuration. Is there a way of counting how many Menu items are still left in the Worksheet Menu Bar?

So, suppose all that is left (after using the program) in the Worksheet Menu Bar are Excel, File, Tools, Help. How can the porgram find out that there are only 4 items in the menu?

Change Desktop Icon

Dec 4, 2008

I was wondering how I could change my desktop icon for one specific workbook to something other than the excel icon. I saw the below link (2nd tip) but that changes the icon for every file of a specific file type. I just want to change one specific file's icon on my desktop to something custom, like a clipart picture of my choosing. I also know that this can be done with shortcuts, but I need it to be changed on the original file. I tried using the IconChanger program, but the icon stayed with the file name so if I did a "save as" or emailed the file, it disappeared. I want it to stick with that file for good, or any file I duplicate from the original, and work on other computers as well.
