I am using the method below to fill a list or combo box. It works but is slow when there are to many entries.
Is there a more elegant way to do this? I heard there was a method using the Excel filter function that makes the whole procedure below not necessary....
I have a combobox whose list is filled with different ranges, on different sheets, selectable using option buttons. The code is shown below:
Private Sub OptionButton1_Click()
Dim ray
Dim Last
ray = Sheets("Trades").Range("B2:B500")
If OptionButton1 = True Then
With ComboBox1
.List = ray
.ListIndex = 0
End With
End If
End Sub
i have a list of surnames in column A in a spreadsheet i want to use this for the source of the combo box also i want this list to be unique and if the surname is not present i want to be able to put the name in the combo box and add it to the sheet
View 2 Replies View Relatedin A1 there will be a box with LinkedCell set to A1 and ListFillRange set to B1:B5. I now want a similar box in A2, with A2 as LinkedCell. However, when I copy paste the box in A1, it still refers to A1 and B1:B5 (the last part is ok). I can easily change A1 to A2 by just changing it in the properties, but the thing is that I also need these boxes in A3:A100. Someone else helped me out by writing some code, but this is not working correctly yet, probably because I'm doing something wrong.
Also, the ListFillRange might expand in the future. Therefor I would like to know if its possible to select the boxes in A1:A100 and change the ListFillRange to B1:B6 for all at once, or even have a piece of code attached to a command button that recognizes the expanded range and updates it.
I couldn't attach the file because it was to big, therefor I uploaded it with yousendit:

So in short: I would like all the comboboxes in column E to be linked to the cell underneath and have and option to adjust the listfillrange. The same for column F, but for this one the listfillrange needs to be O8:O11.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two questions.
1). I have dates listed in excel (01/01/2006 to 12/31/2006) say from range B12:B376.
How do I get these values to a ComboBox.
2). If the above is possible and if I select a value in ComboBox say 08/07/2006, it should get updated in a particular cell say A1
So selection of 08/07/2006 in ComboBox, should reflect 08/07/2006 in cell A1.
Note: This ComboBox is on the UserForm and not on the Excel Sheet.
How can i Loop through a combobox's values and compare to a string value and then set the listindex of the combobox to that value?

I have a spreadsheet dealing with orders made by customers and the delivery of the items they have ordered.
When I have delivered the items to a customer I need to note down that their order has been delivered. I also need to enter the date on which it has been delivered.
I have created a user form in which I select the order number of that particular order from a combobox and state whether or not it has been delivered, this is either a "yes" or "no" selected from another combobox.
I then have to note the date in a text box on which the items were delivered.
My problem is getting the answer "yes" or "no" and the date to fill in on the worksheet next to the corresponding order number.
I am trying to find a quicker way to populate a ComboBox with every possible font available to the user on their particular computer in a manner other than simply using a ton of .AddItem statements.
Is it at all possible to get a user created ComboBox to essentially function the same way that the ComboBox for selecting font works normally? Or is it necessary to go through and add the statements myself?
I am creating a interface to specify default settings, one of which is font.
I have a userform (uf_PaxInput) with a Combobox (cmb_flight_dest) which I am trying to populate from a worksheet range ("Dest") using the following code:
VB:
Sub LoadForm()
With uf_PaxInput.cmb_flight_dest
For Each Item In Range("Dest")
.AddItem
Next Item
End With
uf_PaxInput.Show
End Sub
The code seems to run okay however whent the form loads the combobox drops down to show only blank items to select. These blank items number them same number of items that are in my named range ("Dest").
Using a combobox with dropdown choice you can select today or yesterday. After this i want to fil in cell A1 the date (now) if choose today, and date (-1) if choosen yesterday. I attach a test sheet with this post.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI will preface with what I am trying to do. I want to populate a combo box with months. The list will be populated based on a the date range in a dataset, so all 12 months may not bee populated in the combo box. I want the months to be listed in the combo box with their text names displayed(Jan, Feb... Dec) but have their numerical values when selected (1,2... 12). I'm sure there is a way to do this, but for the life of me I can't find how. My initial thought was to assign a value to a specific list index, i.e. assign the value of listindex 6 as "Jun", but I can't figure out the syntax to do that.
This doesn't work, but might give some insight into what I am trying to do
form.combobox.ListIndex(6) = "Jun"
I can set up a 2 dimensional array by using
array = Workbooks("Workbook.xls").Worksheets("Data"). Range("D_all")
as range D-all contains 2 columns and 20 rows
I can send that list to a combo box by using
Me.ComboBox1.List() = array
If I have ColumnCount set to 2 then both columns will be listed
If I have ColumnCount set to 1 then the 1st part of the array will be listed
But how do I list just the 2nd part of the array
I've been trying for hours to populate a textbox on a userform based on a combo box. I'm including a zip of my workbook to see. (don't laugh to hard at my code, like I said I'm green...:) When you select a mix design in my form I want the next six combo boxes to populate. The way I have it now is based on one of the many examples found here, (none of which have worked for me so far, but this one said "the simplest way to do this is......") And I get an error 425 - "Object not found". I've done searches based on the error but haven't found an answer.

I am trying to insert information from a combobox into a textbox. The issue I have is that the information in the combobox is generated by accessing a network folder and filling the combobox with the names of the various folders. The combobox only generates the first seven digits of the folder...

The ideal is I have a list which the use fills in, for sack of argument Goal 1, Goal 2, etc but I have a problem. This list which the user builds I want to appear in a combobox with is quite easy using the list function and naming the range.
The problem I have is that Goal 1 or 2 can be in this list more than once, if it is at all possible I want or would like the Combobox to only show Goal 1 once and not twice or how many times it occurs. I require the Combobox just to show all Goals once no matter how many time they occur.

Is it possible to count the number of comboboxes on a userform? Or better yet can I fill an Array with all the combobox names on a userform? I can count the controls on a userform but I'm trying to count just the comboboxes? Instead of all the labels and textboxes and frames.
I would like to loop through them for validation instead of doing it by each one by itself!
I have created a User form with Combobox's, which in turn look up cell references in another sheet. In order to make maintainence of the combobox's as easy as possible I'd like the look up as many cells as possible, therefore anyone can easily add additional text to go into the user forms. However I don't want the blank spaces to show until something has been added.

I have a userform with text boxes and a combobox referencing a named range in the spreadsheet. What I'm trying to accomplish is when I click on a name in the combobox, I would like the text I'm adding to this name to be on the same row. Currently a new row is created with all this information instead of being added to the existing row and I end up with duplicate names in the combobox.

I have been able to create a userform that allows users to fill out a form without the need to navigate throught the excel spreadsheet form that has been created. to further refine this I am trying to use either a list box or Combobox to display specific items for certain cells, ie Travel Method (Air / Rail / Other), or Department (Projects / Finance / Engineering / Admin etc). I can create these in a spreadsheet without to much problem, but sofar have been unable to get them to work in the user form.
