Select Next Column After Data Input Into InputBox

Jul 18, 2009

Here is my delimma. I am using the standard InputBox for my users to input the number of errors found for each category in a record from a daily report. The problem I having is that every time the user types in data using the InputBox it overwrites the previous days numbers. I need to set up the InputBox code so that after the user has input the numbers for that day that the next time the InputBox is used it selects the next column to the right and continues to do this for each day.

Monitoring InputBox Input For Illegal Characters

Sep 28, 2007

I have an input box that takes in a file name. Obviously, sometimes people put in illegal characters which can't be used in a file name and I need to deal with this. I can check the variable once they have pressed enter but is there a way to check it as they type it in?

It would be very nice to either have nothing happen if they type in a slash or for a msgbox to pop up, as it does in Windows,

Application.Input Box Validation

Jul 9, 2009

I'm trying to get input from a user regarding parameters for loan calculations. I'm still very new at VBA so some of this will seem very silly, but I've been trying for hours to get this to work right and I keep fixing problems and creating more simultaneously. I've come to the conclusion that I have a fundamental misunderstanding of how this works.

This one actually works fine, but I am including it just in case I've done something less than perfect and someone can correct it.

Positioning Of Validation Input Message

Apr 2, 2009

is it posible to control the positioning of the pop-up data validation input messsage box via vba? As often it obscures the view of critical cells below.
You can manually click and drag it to a desired position manually. Mana users are not aware of that. It would be desirable to reposition it elsewhere rogramatically.

Required Input Based On Validation

Jun 13, 2007

I have a form that when users hit submit, the data they entered gets transfered to Access (thanks to our MVP SydneyGeek for providing me with a macro!) I want to be able to limit or control the users who sends data, by making sure they enter every information that is needed.

I have a column that has a list using Validation. How do I make certain columns required based on what they choose on the list.. if they don't fill in those columns, I don't want them to be able to click Submit, showing an error that would say "Missing Required Fields".

Positioning Input Validation Message Box

Jan 9, 2008

I am using data validation input messages for data entry tips/definitions. The data entry cells are grouped in small tables (about 5 rows X 6 columns) so when the user clicks on a cell, the data validation input message box pops up next to the active cell. This covers the adjacent cells which need to be completed as well.

If I drag the message box over to right of the input table, the messages for the other cells stay in the new location as well. However, Excel doesn't remember this location the next time the workbook is opened.

Is there a way to set the location of the message box or some other way to achieve the same objective of having text boxes pop up in a defined location when a cell is activated?

Data Validation Thru Double Input Into Field

Jan 8, 2009

I have to input data into "ANYDATA" field. Since I need this input to be 100% accurate, I would like my operator to input it TWICE. E.g. 1st input - Obama 2nd input- Obama. Only if BOTH the entries match will the data move into ANYDATA field, else the field becomes blank once again, and the operator has to re-key twice again. In example above, if he had input 2nd time as Obame, then he will have to repeat the process. Can anyone pls help me create suitable formula/ field settings...Thx! Preferably, I would NOT like to create two dummy fields "ANYDATA1" and "ANYDATA2" with corresponding entry in "ANYDATA" if both match.

p.s. Need this to be done using MS-Excel only.

Using A Cell On Another Worksheet As Input For Data Validation

Oct 13, 2008

Situation: I have an Excel file with multiple worksheets. Each of these worksheets contain the same rules for data validation in a certain column (G).

Problem: If I want to add an item to the data validation lists I have to edit every single worksheet. I've tried making a seperate worksheet containing data validation items and using that as the source for the data validation rule, but Excel doesn't allow me to switch worksheets while defining the source.

In other words, I want to manage my data validation rules of multiple columns in multiple worksheets in one central location.

Data Validation Input Message - Always In The Same Area Of The Page

Apr 21, 2009

I have multiple data validations with input messages. For the new user, this is handy, but for the person that does this a lot, they get in the way. When I open the sheet, I can move one message to the side of the page and the rest of them come up at the same spot but when I save, exit, and reopen, the message comes up beside the cell and I would like it to always stay to the side of the page.

Data Validation :: Cells Should Contain Specific Word On Input

Jan 13, 2010

I'm trying to make the included spreadsheet as idiot proof as possible as a lot is a stake. I have most functionality working well; however, not I would like to add a little more data validation that does not exist in the normal cell validation rule set.

I need all the input cells to validate that the cell contains the word "BOX" upon entry, otherwise throw a warning. This is because the data entry will be done by barcode and there are a couple barcode labels on each box. The one I want will include the word "BOX" somewhere in the code sequence.

Since a previous function in the Code locks the cell, they wont be able to fix the error. but it will alert them so they can make sure to scan in the proper barcode and not miss the box. Also, once I get something that works in the code, where would I put it? In the same code box as the previous script, underneath it, or somewhere else? So, bottom line, I need a script that check the cell for Text of "Box" otherwise throw a message box.

Excel 2007 :: Data Validation Not Stopping Invalid Input?

Dec 1, 2011

I just have a basic data validation list. I used "List" and checked the right boxes and the file has been working before. Now the same file does not stop the user from typing in anything.

I re-did the same data validation in a new file and it works. Was there something in the file that prevents it from working?

I have Excel 2007. I saved in both xlsx and xlsm formats

VBA Code For Data Validation Input Message By INDEX MATCH When Cell Clicked

May 30, 2014

code that will be able to lookup a cell in Column J of Sheet1 by using a lookup value on Sheet2. The lookup value can be any cell in columns B, D, F, H, J, K, or N on Sheet2. The tricky part is, I want the result of this lookup (the result comes from Column H of Sheet1) to be placed as a data validation input message for the cell directly to the right of the lookup value when this cell is clicked.

For Example: Lookup Value is "416991" which lies in cell N8 on Sheet2. Look it up in Column J of Sheet1 and return the appropriate value "X" from Column H of Sheet1. "X" will then appear as an input message when cell O8 of Sheet2 is clicked.

Input Box: Return 2 Values To 1 Cell

Jan 30, 2008

I am attempting to have a user enter a First Name into the first Input Box and a Last Name into the second Input Box.

Within the code, I would like both answers to be returned to cell A1.

For example: A1 would read as Doe, James or James Doe (any variation is fine, as long as its one value in A1).

Sub Name()
y = InputBox("Enter First Name", "Information")
If y = "" Then
MsgBox "You must enter", 16, "Message"
Else
x = InputBox("Enter Last Name", "Information")
If x = "" Then
MsgBox "You must enter", 16, "Message"
Else
Range("A1") = y & & x
End If
End If
End Sub
