Immediately Change Back Color Of OleObject

Feb 3, 2008

When I click a Command Button I want a label to change color FIRST and THEN a message box to appear.

I use the following code, but what happens is: FIRST, the message box appears and THEN the label changes color, which is the wrong order. The label needs to change color FIRST.

Private Sub cbA_Click()
newcolor = vbWhite

ActiveSheet. OLEObjects("label1").Object.BackColor = newcolor

MsgBox "done"

End Sub

ActiveX Textbox Back Color - Transparent

Jan 14, 2012

Possible to set the BackColor of an ActiveX textbox to transparent? I have the BackStyle set to transparent, which is great since it will be transparent when not selected so you can see the color of the cell behind it, but once you select it to type in it, the BackColor overrides the cell behind it.

Right now, I have a sheet where the color of a cell changes to green if the textbox needs input from a user. If I have the BackColor set to white, the cell behind will change to green so the user knows they need to enter something in the textbox, but once they click the textbox, it goes white and may confuse them.

On the other hand, if I change the BackColor to green, it works great when the user clicks the correct textboxes, but if the user clicks the wrong textbox, it will 'incorrectly' turn green which may make the user believe they need to enter something in the textbox.

Searches Through A Range And Changes Back Color To Values

Feb 11, 2014

I am doing a spread sheet for participation in a class. What I want is for whenever a student is absent, i.e. has a 0 in their point box for the day, that cell turns red. I have tried to make the .find method work but it has been uncooperative and so far and I can't seem to get it to even run. This is what I have so far:

HTML Code: 

Private Sub For_Loop_Click()
Set v = .Find(0, LookIn:=xlValues)
For Each v In [B6:B46]
Do
If v.Value = 0 Then v.Interior.ColorIndext = 3
Set c = .FindNext(c)

End If
End With
End Sub

For example:

Cell B5 contains the text: VALID

When the user changes the text in the field to read: INVALID - then I need the row range: A5:W5 to change to the color blue.

Change Font Color Based On Adjacent Cell Color

Apr 18, 2008

I have two columns. The first one (A) contains cells that have different Fill colors. The second column (B) contains text adjacent to the colored cells. I am trying to change the color of the text in the second column (B) to the corresponding color in the adjacent cell in the first column (A). I don't think conditional formating works well in this situation. I believe the solution would be some sort of macro.

Vba Delete Of Oleobject Resets Globals?

Jun 6, 2007

I'm developing a series of schedules that organize building plans. In one schedule I maintain a list of areas (called spaces, like a lobby or a conference room). I programatically maintain the list of spaces in the schedule for sorting and other external functions that are irrelevant. In the process I occasionally delete a worksheet. My worksheets have 4 buttons and a combobox. Whenever I delete a worksheet with these objects, I lose ALL of my module-level variables. These include two collections, a boolean, and an integer.

I'll post only the code for now. If you want to replicate, remember to place at least one button or combobox on your worksheet. You'll need to execute each sub manually. I have placed debug statements to print the globals to the immediate window. Notice that the 3rd debug statement shows the globals as present when it's called from the delete routine; however, if you manually execute that print routine after the delete, the globals are gone!

Option Explicit
Const SHEET_TARGET_RANGE As String = "C13:K36"
Dim m_objLocal As New Collection
Dim m_objMaster As New Collection
Dim m_bln As Boolean
Dim m_int As Integer
Public Sub Debug_Populate_Globals()
Dim intLoopCounter As Integer
Set m_objLocal = New Collection
Set m_objMaster = New Collection
For intLoopCounter = 1 To 8
m_objLocal.Add intLoopCounter, CStr(intLoopCounter)
m_objMaster.Add intLoopCounter, CStr(intLoopCounter)....................

Change Userform Textbox Back Colour If Contents Are Percentage

OleObject ActiveX ComboBox Event Procedures

Userform Not Hiding Immediately?

Oct 9, 2008

I have a small userform with a ComboBox (ComboBox1) which, on a change event, kicks off another process. It's working fine, but the problem is that the userform hides immediately, and the open combobox remains visible while the second process starts running. It's only like that for about 5-7 seconds, but it doesn't look overly professional.

I'm using MS Excel 2007 on WinXP.

I tried putting in a sleep command or two, but that doesn't quite do the trick (the sleep is for 1 second).

Selecting Specific Worksheet Immediately Stops Macro

Nov 15, 2013

Whenever I try to use Sheets("Volumes").Select or .Activate on a specific worksheet, my macro code will immediately terminate with no error message. Iv'e used F8 to step through several modules and found that this happens every time it hits that line. The wierd thing is that i can select this sheet when screenupdating is off and I select it from a called subroutine. No other worksheets in this workbook are having this problem.

Additional info : using Sheet1.Select will select it with no issues but I don't want to go this route since it's a workaround and not a solution to somthing that should work.This problem occurs in several modulesEverything used to work fine and just one day it decided that i couldn't select the "Volumes" sheet in VBA anymore.I can click on the sheet no problem and it is not protected or hidden.

Calculating Distances Between Back-to-back Locations

Aug 11, 2012

I have a layout something like the following:

A1
A2
A3

[Code]....

Where each (i.e., A1) represents a location. I have tried to use a coordinate system but this will not work for the back-to-back locations. (Assuming each location is 2 feet wide, For example A1 to C1 is 4 feet apart, not 2 feet (as Euclidean or rectilinear would calculate it as).

Would there be a way to incorporate an if statement for those locations that are back-to-back? As a rectilinear distance calculation would work as long as the locations are not part of the same "block".

Ultimately I am looking to have a matrix which contains all the distances between each location:

A1
A2
A3
B1
