I have a 5-column listbox in a userform. I do not know how to make the column borders visible. If somebody can tell me, that would be great.
If not, then the next alternative would be to manually draw a line. I tried to so one, by creating a Label with a width of 1, and backcolor ot black. This works but not in front of a list box. For some reasons it cannot be brought to front/forward (order) of a listbox, I already right-clicked several times and sent tthe order to front.
Is it possible to add horizontal lines to a user form, like as shown in the attached image. I know about frames, but unsure how to get just one horizontal line.
I have this Command button that switches on and draws a line. If you press it again then I need to delete that line.
If I push the button multiple times Excel keeps changing the name of the line. I have multiple lines on the same worksheet and text boxes but only this 1 line needs to be delete. I would think that theres a way to assign a permanent name to this line and delete and recreate it but...
Currently we have data that is plotted to a scatter plot along with an already defined line. Next, with a straight edge we attempt to draw a line parallel to the already defined line through the scatter points of data. We basically find two points that give us the best fit to the original line. What I attempted to do was calcualte the slope of the original line and then the slope of each combination of two points in the data set. I then subtracted the slopes, found the minimum difference and thought that would give me the line most parallel to the original. This doesn't seem to work. I'm at a loss, any advice?
I know you can draw a line on a userform by providing the start and end co-ordinate of where you want it, but is it possible to have a UserForm appear on call, with the 1st co-ordinate already set (by the programmer) and the user clicks on some point of the UserForm to indicate where they want the end co-ordinate to be, and that a line would then be drawn to that point ?
On my userform, when a command button is clicked, then a textbox gets filled in the the answer. How do I insert line breaks in the answer? For instance:
I tried .value="AnswerPart1" & Chr(10) & "AnswerPart2" but then all the text box displays is AnswerPart1 (the symbol for paragraph) AnswerPart2. It doesn't actually break the line.
I have built a small userform with 3 fields. The macro ran OK first few times. Now, when user enters data in the form and clicks OK nothing happens. I found that repeated clicking on OK or Cancel button on form had no effect. I then observed that VBA editor was open and the yellow cursor was displayed on the first code line under cmdOK_click procedure. The code line was also highlighted in yellow. There are no errors to debug and no break points etc. When I clicked the Run (or Continue) icon from the VBA toolbar, the macro completed OK. Question: Why is the macro pausing on the first line and how can I make it run without pausing for no apparent reason.
I have a worksheet in whichs Column A Cells , there is corresponding string content in Col. Z. Some cells of column Z contain of many lines (up to 100 line) which i want to reduce to one. I want to select one line through double clicking in the listbox of the userform and all other lines should be deleted and only the clicked one should remain. Code should then jump to the next non empty Z cell.
Columns B, C, D, E, F, G and H should also be shown in the userform and they should be live editable. I have attached and example file with userform and example data.
I want to add a user-form on a chart, which will have check-boxes that will allow me to select series(lines) that I want see and compare in a chart. Currently my line chart has 24 series (Lines) which makes the chart very difficult to view and looks very busy. How do I add list of check-boxes that will allow me to select one or multiple lines that I want to see at a time?
I was looking for some code to randomly generate a number for a prize draw I am doing. I found a great piece on this site, which I have slightly changed to give me what I have below.
It works great except for one thing I cannot work out, I have the code below working on cell "C1", I would like it to work in cell "C5", but I can't seem to work this out.
Sub SlotsNum() Dim w As Long, x As String, y As Long Randomize x = Format(Int((Range("B2") - Range("B1") + 1) * Rnd + Range("B1")), "0000") For y = 1 To 1 For w = 1 To 250 Range("C" & y) = Int(8000 * Rnd) Next w Range("C" & y) = CInt(Mid(x, y, 4)) Next y End Sub
Also, whilst here. i will have one other problem, with it being a prize draw I do not want to draw the same number twice. At the moment I have a small macro that copies the winning name that appears on the main screen (via a vlookup) onto a winners spreadsheet. I am thinking of then creating another macro that replaces the winning name on the master list with an "Already Won" entry, so we can just select again.
i have faced a problem i want to draw straight connector using code imagine when you select straight connector to draw line mouse cursor changes when you move it to a node i want to do this with excel vba code without going to shapes and selecting connector.
I have attached a very simple example of what I am trying to achieve.So we have 2 sheets. a sheet called data and a sheet called results.
the data sheet, includes ID's of employees and what they are measured on - Hours and Accounts Finished.For example, worker 123 put in 100 hours from the 200 expected and finished 100 accounts from the 200 expected. The main sheet called Results looks up in a list every ID and displays in a table the compensation the worker got. Each time you select from the drop list a different ID number it shows the result and the amount of money they got.
I want to be able to draw every worker and display the compensation they got('Results', H11) in the Pay amount column('Data',H3:H11).
I have a worksheet set up as a draw sheet for a tournament. I have a set of rankings showing all points collated from last tournament. What i want to do is set up a formula/macro so that a cell containing a player eg. the winner will be found on the ranking list and the points won will be added to the next cell on the ranking list.
I've recently come across this wonderful site and have found it to be a pool for great information. I looking for some assistance with finding a macro that will draw circles/dots on a worksheet when the left mouse button is clicked at the mouse cursor location. There may be something out there already??? Here's exactly what I need; I want a macro that will draw 7 different coloured circles (blue, pink, cyan, lime green, red, yellow, and orange) on a worksheet. The macro would be activated from a button (7 different buttons- one for each colour) on the worksheet and when the left mouse button is clicked the coloured circle is drawn at the mouse cursor location.
I'm running a Secret Santa DJ competition this year and today now wish to make the draw.
Basically all entrants send in their mixes (in this case - upload to a webserver) and I then wish to try and use Excel to make the draw.
What I'd like to do is have a list of all the entrants in column a, use RAND() in column b to assign them each a number, and in column c use the list of entrants in column a to assign each person a mix to receive.
Through my browsing and searching on here, I came across the following (entered as an array); it's brilliant but unfortunately gives me duplications.
way to calculate the drawdown for a futures trading account’s equity. The following is the record of taking a sequence of 20 trades. Drawdown is defined as the lowest point between two consecutive equity highs. Therefore a formula should detect pairs of equity highs and then find the maximum difference between these highs and the lowest point in between each of these pairs. Do you think this can be done using standard excel functions?
You might wish to plot a linear graph to visualize the equity. Looking forward to hear what you think! I include more examples of equity records.
formal definition of a drawdown:
Drawdown: The magnitude of a decline in account value, either in percentage or dollar terms, as measured from peak to subsequent trough. For example, if a trader's account increased in value from $10,000 to $20,000, then dropped to $15,000, then increased again to $25,000, that trader would have had a maximum drawdown of $5,000 (incurred when the account declined from $20,000 to $15,000) even though that trader's account was never in a loss position from inception
I have to draw a polygon of n sides whose , whose length of side will be given in the cells of excel and the diagram should be displayed in excel itself automatically
Like I have A1=5 A2=5 B1=4 B2=3 C4=5
Then diagram should be like in the attachment : Untitled5.png‎
I'm trying to get a random prize draw working with in excel. My worksheet structure as follows.
A1 person's name B2 points obtain by the person.
A1 B2 John 10 points Ken 20 points Amy 30 points
1st draw. If random number result between 1 and 10 display John wins then delete John's entries.
2nd draw etc... and delete anyone that has already won a prize.
With the following code I found on this forum it partly works. It only randomly select a cell but missing displaying the winner and removing it afterwards.
I have some code, in one part of it I am storing a number (between 1 and 8) as Integer. Is it possible to reference this variable to draw some rectangles on a sheet, sort of
"If MonitorDetail (this is the name of the variable) .value = 2 then
Here I place the code to draw the rectangle on the page. The macro currently stops at Monitordetail with a error telling me its a "Invalid Qualifier".
I want to put a length in one cell and a width in another. Then have excel draw a square/ rectangle to this size. It could just outline cells, each cell being one inch or any other way.
I have the data to import / read in a pdf, in a doc, or in an Excel worksheet whichever is easier to use. I need to import the data, parse it into the correct cells for that row and then repeat the import until the end of the file. Not all the cells are in each group of data to import, so those cells will be null for that row. Some of the data for one cell may be in up to 14 lines in the data file. I have be concatenating these data rows into one cell. There are 48,000 lines in the file to import or I would do this manually. I am assuming that doing this in VBA would be the most efficient method.
