How Do I Link Mulitple Drop Down Boxes Together
Feb 20, 2006I have 2 drop down lists made, but I want to have one linked to the other
one.
For example the first list has types of wood in it.
Bamboo
Maple
Oak
The 2nd one has pricing in it.
1.25
2.50
3.50
If I click on Bamboo - I want the 2nd list to auto generate 3.50. Can that
be done?
Link 2 Form Control Boxes
Mar 15, 2009I am looking to connect 2 form control boxes and have the second box run 2 different types of macros. The first box will have only 2 options - select by week and select by month.
The second box should show the list of weeks or months based on the selection in the first box. Then for the second box, if weeks is shown, a week macro should be run whenever a week date is selected. Similarly for the list of months, a month macro should be run whenever a month is selected.
I have been trying to do this for more than a week (after posting on this board) without success. I apologize if this seems like a duplicate post.

View 6 Replies View RelatedMacro To Link Check Boxes To Cells
Feb 8, 2008I have a spreadsheet setup which includes a number of checkboxes set up using the forms toolbar.
I would like to link each of these checkboxes (in sheet1) to a cell reference in sheet2. I'm trying to write a macro that will do this for me to save me right clicking, choosing format control etc for each checkbox.
I found the code on this page: http://www.mrexcel.com/archive2/51300/59643.htm
which appears to be similar to what I am trying to achieve. In this case it creates the checkboxes in cells B3:B20 and links them to C3:C20.
I have already created all the checkboxes, and wish to use a macro to link them (for example) to C3:C20 in sheet2.
Find A Text Or Number In Text Boxes
Oct 15, 2008I have a couple of excelfiles in which someone made a flowchart with text boxes. I would like a search code that would help me find a text or number in those text boxes. The CTRL+F function only works on cells. Does something similar exist for text boxes? Or can this be made in a macro?
Replace Text In Mutiple Text Boxes
Sep 12, 2007Trying to Find a specific word and Replace with another within a textbox ( created from the drawing tool, as well as the control toolbar) The textboxes contain loads of text information.
as an example
The word "Apple" to be replaced with "Orange"
I came across this code from the archives (compliments of Dave Hawley)
Sub ReplaceTextBoxText()
Dim sTextBox As Shape
Dim wSheet As Worksheet
Set wSheet = Sheets.Add()
For Each sTextBox In Sheet1.Shapes
I've tried several variations with no results. (perhaps it's to extensive for my modest needs)

ENABLE Text Boxes
May 23, 2009I have a ton of text boxes on a userform that are in an initial state of being disabled. Is there a quick way of enabling by use of a mask for these Text Boxes ?
All the text boxes I want to enable are named "TB_fieldname" and by mask I mean a snippet of code using something like "TB_*"
Example
tb_liqname, tb_casecost, tb_bottleprice etc etc..

Aug 5, 2009I have been working on an excel sheet with several text boxes that need data manually putting into them. I have set the texts boxes out in the correct order and could tab thru them perfectly in order, but then I saved, closed then reopen the document and now the text boxes do not tab in order. I have tried to rearrange them, delete them and start again but the same problem happens every time and I cannot get the tab order of the text boxes to stay in order

Search Function Using 2 Text Boxes?
May 22, 2014 I am wondering if the user can use 2 boxes to search and populate the record.
Ie./ Box 1= Vehicle Registration Box 2= Date
This sheet will be used throughout each month and each vehicle registration may have more than one record that month
So I need the user to be able to input the vehicle reg and for the form to populate the relevant record.
I current have a Unique reference which is a combo box that once you select it auto populate the record but this will take forever having to populate ach record to find which one the user is looking for.
How To Change Text In Saving Boxes
Mar 26, 2014I have a file that another person created and instead of traditionally saving, the only way to save file is by hitting X in top right corner and then a series of boxes pop up directing the user on what to do. I looked at macros within file and couldn't find anything really relating to the saving functions of document. This is a complex document and I'm starting to think that it isn't a macro. Is there any area in excel that allows you to adjust save settings? All I'm trying to do is change the wording in these pop up boxes but cannot find the source. Attached is screen shot of first box that pops up.
View 4 Replies View RelatedChange Text Boxes In Do While Loop
Mar 4, 2009I made up a form of 30 text boxes to simplify entering data, but seem to be having a problem inserting it easily back into my excel file.
I would like to use a simple Do While loop to shorten my code but can't seem to change my text box correctly.
My text boxes all have names like this txtap1run11, txtap1run12, txtap1run13...
As you can see all I need to do is change the last number of the text box name.
I can't figure out how to do that though. I came up with this, I don't have the do while loop in.

May 1, 2013I have a workbook that has multiple sheets. And on lets say as an example the first and third pages I have text boxes "reason for text boxes is for sizing issues" that are on both pages that are identical and have the same info that needs to be entered into them. What I would like to accomplish is when info is placed in those text boxes on the first sheet their values auto populate onto the third sheet and so and so forth. Being multiple text boxes on multiple sheets, going through all 5 would be daunting and time consuming.

Aug 11, 2004I have a UserForm with several text boxes where dates are input, the user form is acts as a data entry form so the text boxes are not linked to individual cells. My problem is that when the dates are entered into my worksheet they are in Text Format even though the worksheet column is formatted to Custom Date dd,mm,yyyy.

Transferring Text Boxes To Cells
Apr 10, 2007I want to transfer the contents of around 20 textboxes to 20 different cells. Allthough I have seen many code examples for doing this with a single text box e.g.
Sub getext()
Dim s As String
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Text Box 1").Select
s = Selection.Characters.Text
Range("A100").Value = s
End Sub
I can't seem to get it to loop through 20 boxes automatically using a For next loop for instance. Also I would like it to skip any empty text boxes it finds.
From what I've seen I don't think it would take too much code but I'm afraid I'm a complete beginner with macro's and completely stuck.
Calculating An Average But Excluding Boxes With Text
Sep 25, 2009I'm trying to get excel to calculate the average time spent on appointments by officers in a small team. Each of them sees people each day, and as we're very busy I'm eager to get the time spent on each appointment down, by giving them a target of the number of people to see each day. At the moment we gather some stats on this, which show how many people are being seen by each officer.
The attached example sheet shows for one week a list of columns with officer's initials at the top, and says how many people were seen by each person each day during that week and then a how many people overall for the week.
I'd like to be able to generate statistics on the amount of time each officer has spent on average with customers, and base this on the fact that people have 360 minutes per day (they do 6 hours of appointments and another hour for admin) to see people.
I think the spreadsheet attached gives a good idea of the system and what I want to do.

View 4 Replies View RelatedSelect/Delete Worksheet Text Boxes Using VBA ...
Apr 9, 2009I'm sure you're all familiar with Text Boxes:
You can add shapes and text boxes (text box: A movable, resizable container for text or graphics. Use text boxes to position several blocks of text on a page or to give text a different orientation from other text in the document.) to a worksheet by using the Drawing toolbar.
Did you know that if you click the text box button, then click on a spreadsheet (inserting a blank text box), then click off the text box, a small blank text box will remain hidden from view on your spreadsheet? Once hidden, the only way to find it is to slowly move your cursor over the Text Box edge, and watch the cursor momentarily change shape. Did you also know that if you copy or fill down the cells behind that text box, it will make as many copies of itself as you made for the cell? Not too dis-similar from a virus.
Imagine what would happen if you unknowingly had some of these text boxes on your main calculation sheet (200 columns by 2000 rows); one where you regularly copied formulae/cells for a period of over four years. Yes, (judging by their names e.g. "Text Box 29413") the thriving population of these invisible beasties is now in the neighbourhood of thirty thousand! The damn things are worse than fleas; and they're impairing the function of the whole workbook.
Help! Would someone please provide a VBA macro to find, select and delete these little devils from the spreadsheet (just this one spreadsheet)?

How Text Boxes Work In Conjunction With CommandButton
Dec 28, 2009I am trying to make a calculator inside of Excel...learning how Text Boxes work in conjunction with CommandButton. I am trying to code the button to display inside of the text box. I have never coded a text box before to do anything like.
note: For right now i am just looking at being able to click on a button [numbered 0-9] and have them dsplayed inside the text box. After that I want to be able to set up an addition, subtraction, etc button to actually have the math done.
(ie...if Button 1 is clicked, 1 will be displayed, if Button 2 is clicked the display will adjust to show 12, etc etc)
