How To Put Data Into An Array From A Combobox
May 19, 2006
I'm trying to create a data entry form that uses comboboxes. I can populate the comboboxes with data from an excell sheet. There are 3 columns of data that are called to each combobox, and the list of data is the same in each combobox. When the chosen line is selected for each combobox I then want to pass all that data back to the excel sheet in the same column layout. I suspect this will need to be done with an array.
Basically, I want to have five tasks with timing details that are done from Monday to Friday - these are listed in excel. I want each of these tasks to appear in each combo box (two columns in the combobox) so that the user can decide which task will be done on which day. Then the tasks are passed back to excel as a timetable. If it were 1 column I could do it but the second column is causing me grief. I suspect this will need to be done with an array.

I've been writing a UserForm in Excel that serves the purpose of a front-end contact/reporting spreadsheet.
I've managed to get a multitude of elements to work together as of yet, however have been having problems writing data to the correct place on the spreadsheet.
What I've already achieved:
The first interactive portion of the userform currently has a TextBox (ArtistAgentAddEmail) - this is the email that we would like inputting on the spreadsheet.
a ComboBox which is populated on 'Userform_Initialize' into an array (ArtistAgentAddDestination) - The range of this array is A1:AC1.
[Code]......
What I would like to do next:
The issue that I've been having is getting the email to be written into the correct column. Once I have typed in my email and chosen my destination from the combobox, I would like to write this email address in the column of the destination chosen.
E.G. The first 5 elements of my ComboBox array are: Neil O'Brien, CAA, CODA, ITB and PRIMARY. If i got an email from somebody in the CAA organisation to add a new contact to the reporting, I would like to be able to add this address via the userform underneath the previously added contact.
The code that I am currently using for my confirm button is:

I have a VBA form and on form initialize I want to populate a combo box… My array to populate it with could be a massive list so I need to set my array before it populates
I have this code so far but I need my array to be from A5 to the last row in sheet 1
I know how to set an exact range but not one that changes.
VB:
Dim myArray As Variant
myArray =
With Me.ComboBox1
.List = myArray
End With
Here is a sample of the data I need to populate in the combobox.
client_ref
A0008
A024

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 need to populate two combo boxes from excel sheet, the data will be like below:
Column A Column B
A 1
A 2
A 3
A 4
A 5
B 100
B 101
B 102
So from the above data, one combo box should hold unique values A & B.
On selecting a value from the 1st combo box A or B, respective values should be populated in 2nd combo box.
So the data should be like below:
If A is selected in the 1st combo box, then 2nd combo box should only show the values 1,2,3,4 & 5.
If B is selected in the 1st combo box, then 2nd combo box should only show the values 100,101 & 102.
Friends I need it in a macro and one important point is, this is dynamic and it is not static and the data can be more.

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!

On one sheet (KPI) I have either the values "x" or "" in the range A84:A89 to mark wheter to use the corresponding project in the range B84:B89. On the sheet X-ref I have the same project names in range T4:Y4 and a corresponding target value in T8:Y8
What I want is the sum (or average) of the marked-projects target-values. The result should end up in KPI!G31.
In other words I want
=sumif(A84:A89;"x";'X-ref'!T4:Y4)
but it doesn't work since the first range is an column-array and the second range is an row-array.

I have a form with several combo boxes, and they function just the way I like as far as being able to pick from the list, or typing in them and having it show you the next available item in the list as you add letters. Whats happening that I would like to know how to deal with is... as soon as you type a letter that is not in my lookup range it generates an error. "Could not get the list property - Invalid property array index". I don't want people to be able to add to the list, but I would like a msgbox to pop up. Then allow them to go back to the box and try again.

I am trying to add a row of data to a combobox list of values but it looks like it will only allow a column of data to be added. Is there a simple way to add a row as the source data or would i need to add each data point using a For Next loop?

Am trying to get dynamic population of 2nd combobox based on match from criteria in combobox 1.
if column a = bears and column b = colours of bears then
when I select bears in combobox one, combobox 2 would populate with colors of bear.
I am think of having a combobox 1 change event that evaluates each row in a specific range (does it match the criteria?) if so, then add 2nd cell (column b) of that row to the combobox 2.
I know it would probably involve match and offset, add item and loop, but I am not sure what the syntax is.

When I make a comboBox selection from the dropdown menu, the menu stays down until the last statement of the comboBox code is finished. How do I make the dropdown disappear immediately after the selection is made?

Basically I have a column filled with names (A) that the combobox is filled with, I then have a text based inputbox and a submit button. Right now the submit button transfers the data from the inputbox to the same row depending on the combobox choice and edits the existing text which is fine.
However I also want the data to be submitted to another sheet where the data is not edited but added.
Example: I choose James from combobox and writes 10 in the inputbox, the submit button will then edit the existing value on the "Data Edit" sheet on the row James and add the value to the row James on the "Data Add sheet".
This is the edit code, I basically just need some pointers as to how to add data to blank cells in corresponding rows according to combobox selection.

I have created a combobox1 and I have written a code to populate the box the problem is when I run the form and select the data from the dropdown list it gives me an error. I can see the data but just can't select it. I have a command button that I use to save the data I select and insert it into fields on my worksheet. All I just need the drop down box to let me select the data I chose below is my code.
Private Sub ComboBox1_Click()
ComboBox1.Value = .Range("A2:A14")
End Sub

I am working on a project where I have a data validation list box in column A B and C on the same row. The selection in column A determines what can be selected in column B, and column b effects column c selection. The data from the list is located in another sheet and dynamic named ranges.
The data validation source is as follows:
Column A:
=ProjectNoList
Column B:
=OFFSET(ProjectNoList,MATCH(C11,UniProjectNo,0)-1,12,COUNTIF(UniProjectNo,C11),1)
Column C: =OFFSET(ProjectNoList,MATCH(D11,OFFSET(ProjectNoList,MATCH(C11,ProjectNo,0)-1,2,COUNTIF(ProjectNo,C11),1),0)-1+MATCH(C11,ProjectNo,0)-1,3,COUNTIFS(DisciplineCode,D11,ProjectNo,C11),1)
This works fine, however I need the drop down menus to be longer as there can sometimes be a lot of data to scroll through. To do this I have used the instructions at Excel Data Validation Combo box Click to make a combobox data validation.
It works fines for column A, however I can't get the list for column B to populate in the combo box.
The code looks like this:
Code:
Dim str As String
Dim cboTemp As OLEObject
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = ActiveSheet
On Error GoTo errHandler
If Target.Count > 1 Then GoTo exitHandler
Set cboTemp = ws.OLEObjects("ComboName")
On Error Resume Next
If cboTemp.Visible = True Then
With cboTemp
.Top = 10
.Left = 10
.ListFillRange = ""
[code]....
I suspect that column A works because the data validation formula is only referring to a named ranged, ProjectNolist, however columbs B and C use a few in a formula.
Code:
.ListFillRange = str
is empty when column b is selected
is it possible to get the data validation list from column b and c into a combo box and if so how?

I am using Excel 2007 and I've been working with a spreadsheet that utilizes several Data Validation to allow users to make different choices and depending on those choices the next options in line change. My problem is that I have so many different options, so long of formulas, that I run out of space to type in formulas in the DV source field. One way I get around this is to drop down to the next cell and start again, but I really need all the choices to stay in one row. Somebody suggested using VLookup, but I am not sure if that is the right path to take because a few of the final drop down choices have multiple options, and I'm not clear on how to use VLookup.
I am strongly considering using a Combobox Form Control or Combobox ActiveX control because, from what I have learned, they wouldn't be restricted by formula space. However, being fairly new to Excel I do not know what the codes would be to allow the comboboxes to change options based on previous selections. I've searched the message boards extensively and haven't been able to find an answer.

I am trying to trigger an event when a value from a combobox in Excel is chosen. E.g If i choose "Option 1" from the combobox then push Command_Button 1 (for example) i would like excel to connect to my database and pull all information on "Option 1", if i change my mind and want to see all information on ("Option 10"), i would like it to go and get "Option 10" info anfter the button is pushed. I have had a look around and cant see anything that comes close to completing this. I though about using the worksheet change event to trigger this but the application comes back stating "Application Error or object defined error".

How to delete the selected data that is displayed in a combobox?
Belox is the code I have used to add the data.
Private Sub cmbnewuser_Click()
Set ws = Worksheets("Start")
' find first empty row in database
iRow = ws. Cells(Rows.Count, 27) _
.End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
'copy the data to the database
ws.Cells(iRow, 27).Value = txtnewuser.Value
txtnewuser.Value = ""
End Sub
I can get the data I want to delete to show in the combobox, I just have no idea what to assign the command button to do.
'RowSource' is set to Start!AA1:AA1000, is there anyway I can make it display only the cells that contain data (as there are currently only 3 bits of data, with the potential of more)?

I have some documents created in Excel that I use; I am wanting to make things easier so I don't have to keep typing customers details into the delivery notes and invoices as I go.
What I have done so far is create an access database with a customer table (this contains company name & address) also a table for contact (this contains contact details for various people at the companies).
I have used the import data feature to get a full list of customers address and contact details on the spreadsheet. I have another sheet that I have created a combobox that I can type a company name in and it will find a match from my list.
Now the bit I am struggling with is that I also need a combobox for the contact; I don't want the combobox to have all my contacts in, just the one that releate to the company I have chosen in combobox 1.

There are two Combo boxes in the form. ComboBox1 is being populated from a named range - "ParticipantName". (Located in Sheet1!C2:C500) ComboBox2 has been populated with "No" and "Yes" with additem in Form1 Initialize.
There are 3 (Three) Command Buttons - "Save", "Cancel" and "Close".
"Cancel" shall clear data in both Combo Boxes. It is done.
"Close" shall unload the Form. It is also done.
My problem is with the "Save" button. The user will select a name in the ComboBox1 and Select "Yes" or "No" in ComboBox2. Then if the user press "Save"; only the selected data of ComboBox2 will be written in the 26th Column (Column "Z") of Sheet1 in respective Row of the name selected in the ComboBox1.

I have a worksheet containing employee information (i.e. name, manager, department, etc.). I also have a userform that will be used to make changes to the employee information. The userform has three comboboxes and, when activated, the userform is populated with the existing data in the worksheet.
Here is the problem - I need to have the existing worksheet data populate (as it does now) but also have the combobox choices available in the event that one of the 'combo' fields need to be changed. How do I keep the existing worksheet data AND keep the functionality of the combobox?
