List Boxes Not Displaying Choices
Feb 19, 2009I'm very new to the VB experience and am having trouble getting the choices in my list boxes to show up.

View 6 RepliesI am developing a spreadsheet with numerous information on our different suppliers offices in the country for each of our outlets. I am tryin to define a way to do the following:
If a colleague selects a company another list will appear with the region and when the region is selected a list of the offices will appear.
I created a dropdown menu, that asks you make a choice from a list.
"Under 5"
"Between 5 and 10"
"Over 10"
However I want to connect the choice to a certain number and use it for a formula. For example:
"Under 5" is equal to 1
"Between 5 and 10" is equal to 2
"Over 10" is equal to 3
So if I make a formula to multiply the cell that says Under 5, excel to understand it is actually the digit 1.
I have multiple choices in a list box. I wish to know how do i link each choices in the list box to another worksheet so when clicked it goes to the worksheet specified.
View 3 Replies View RelatedColumn D has a list with the choices OPEN, PENDING, CLOSED. I want Column E to automatically enter the date when someone choose closed in Column D.
So in Cell E6. I wrote, IF(D6="Closed",Today(),"") . . . . .
It works, but wondering if E6 will keep changing the day every day to show the current day (bad) If so, how do it get it keep the closed date?
I want to select a Hyperlinked file.These files are named using Data in ColumnA,B & C. The realtionship between filename and data in columns is; A-B-C.ext. After selecting data A from the dropdown list,i should be able to select corresponding data B and then again another dropdown list for corresponding data C.This should show the desired already hyperlinked file. I want to select the hyperlinked file name by simply selecting all the three data independently.

I have worked out how to do the first stage of creating a drop down list showing alternative choices with Sex, Age etc in the data validation options, however:
There are 517 possible combinations, as in Male aged 19 to 35 studying Business (with other variables) or Male aged 19 to 35 studying Law (+ other variables) etc etc etc each with their own probability of success. Due to the long nature of writing out Male1935BusinessNorthWestWhiteBritishCollegeBrown I have rewritten it so it appears in the excel file as M1935BNWWBCB, which obviously wouldn't make any sense to someone if they had to select M 1935 B NW WB CB from drop down lists.
Along side the M1935BNWWBCB there is the probability of success specific to that type of person. So for example I could would have:
M 60%
M1935 64%
M1935B 35%....
I am trying to create a drop down list that when selected will display data in the 10 rows below and 4 columns, so a total of 40 cells. I would like the data to be based on the selection in the drop down list.
The data looks like this,
RequirementsQtyResourcesQty
Level 1 Sentinel10Level 1 Sentinel105
Level 2 Sentinel10Level 2 Sentinel167
Level 3 Sentinel10Level 3 Sentinel156
Level 1 Banga20Level 1 Banga401
Level 2 Banga20Level 2 Banga307
Level 4 Banga20Level 4 Banga0
i have 27 different combinations of the above list with up to 10 different rows. I have a label for each one, but i cannot get the rows below my drop down list to display the proper values base don the selection in the drop down list.
I know how to create drop down list but I have a problem to Return different value then is displayed in Dropdown List. For example: On the workbook I have two wokssheets: one with empty cell and secound with list created for dropdown list.
On the secound woksheet I have created: column A namebox "Country" - cointains full name of countries (Great Britain, Australia ...) and column B namebox "CountryCode" - contains country codes only (GBR, AUS ...) When I click on dorp down list on first worksheet, I would like to my drop down list display me list with columnA "Country" but when I choose one of that it would returns me cell from columnB "Country Code".
when i use vlookup in a col and try to filter #n/a.the #n/a is not getting displayed in auto filter list but when i scroll down i can see some #n/a available.i alway do it after pasting it as values
regarding a drop down list.
I have 8 items in a drop down list that all have the same variables that i've listed on a separate worksheet. I want to select one item from the drop list and then have only its variables appear. And then when I change the item from the drop down list all of the variables will update for that item - and have them displayed always in the same cell.
Im designing a form which will be a few list boxes that input data into specific cells in another sheet.
I would like the list boxes to change depending on selection.
eg: if there is a certain value selected in the first list, then only the relevant values will appear in the second box.
so if there are values Potato, Banana and Apple in list one, and list two contains values White, Yellow and Red.
if banana is clicked in list 1 then only yellow will appear in box 2 as a selection.
I have a userform that loads with when excel starts. The workbook has a second and third sheets with names from A1 to A20. The form is used to add information to the first sheet. There are two list boxes on the form the reference via VBA the names on sheets 2 and 3. When form initially opens the list boxes are void of data. I also have a macro that reopens the form without having to close the workbook. When I close the form and reopen it the list boxes are populated as they should be - so the list boxes are working correctly just not being populated initially. In the open form module I have code that sets the rowsource for the data on sheet 2 and 3. Why the userform does not populate when the workbook initially opens?
Here is the code in my open userform module
Sub openuserofrm()
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("VILLAGEvisits").Activate
Sheets("VILLAGEvisits").Unprotect Password:=""
Sheets("OldVisits").Unprotect Password:=""
[Code] ....
I also have a user form with two listboxes, a fruit box and a veggie box. I want to populate each box based on its type. So all of the fruits go in the fruit box, all the veggies in the veggie box. I have each column as a named value (lstKeys, lstTypes, lstName).
Code:
'Add Names
For Each Name In Range("lstNames")
If Range("lstType").Value = "Veggies" Then
[Code]....
Attached is a sample file that has a Data entry sheet in which the user can paste in data. They can test & paste anywhere from 1 to 50 compounds at a time and run the list through 1 to 55 Assays. I want to generate a sheet (Plate & Assay Info) that would first display the list of compounds that were tested as well as the list of Assays that they were run through.

And pending that the above is possible is there a way to exclude the first value a column?
I want all values in column A except A! to display that aren't blank.
I trying to do a sheet with one combo box (dropdown list) where I want the user to be able to choose "add rows" to make more boxes appear. My idea to solve this was to put all the boxes in the sheet, and then create a macro that either hides or shows the rows with the extra boxes. Now I have a problem that hiding the rows just does that, and only that. The rows disappear, but the combo boxes stay visible (but ends up on top of eachother).
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would to say thank you to RoyUK for helping me out with this DependantlistBoxes where a Userform has two columns. Now I've manupilated a Userform so that whenever I double click on the cell, the selected text from the second box in Userform is pasted to the cell in the next column to the right.
But I what I really want it to do is to past the text fromt the first box in Userform to the active cell and when move to the second box in Userform, the selected text will be paste to the cell on the right.
Like I double click on B3 (in "Fullarton") sheet, a userform appear. When I choose CB from the first box in userform, it should paste in B3. Then when I choose Electrician from second box in userform, Electrician should be paste in C3.
I have a user form with 4 list boxes that I'd each like to populate with their own lists of cities according to time zone - one list box for each time zone (ET, CT, MT and PT).
I attached a worksheet that has some code from another project I got from another thread on this forum, but it needs to be modified (or whole new code written) for this application, including initializing the control buttons.
The code I'm borrowing has a slight glitch in it, where if you select the last item in the list box to hide, that item will be missing from the list the next time the user form is opened, and you'll then have to manually unhide that column.
My problem is i need to create a drop down box in excell, now i have a list of names,

I have a project I'm working on that requires me to display information from various sheets on a dashboard. I have created a data validation dropdown list with part numbers. When one of these part numbers is selected from the drop down list I need the rest of the fields to populate with the appropriate information from various sheets in the workbook. How do I tell the dashboard to display this information per part number?
see the attached workbook.

I have a workbook with 7 sheets, the drop down list operates correctly on all but one sheet, it used to work on all sheets. The arrow on the right of the selected cell dose not appear onthis particulr sheet. I have rebooted the PC and double checked the in-cell option. I have search the forum for similar problem and found the same problem but no remedy.
View 2 Replies View Relatedthis is my first attemp at doing a "userform". I am looking for some help in creating a user form that enables users to choose items from drop down boxes, which shows next level drop down list items, then down to final drop down list with information based on first two choices. I've attached the sample file for reference.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am creating a spreadsheet where the user enters food they have eaten that day. The way this is done at the moment is with validated list boxes, one depending on the other using the indirect function. I want to be able to make this into a user input form. Is there a way of adding these validations from the spreadsheet, to an input form.
I want the input form to have an input for the day, food group, food item, and quantity of the food. The food item needs to depend on the food group.
I am using a ComboBox to get a value from the user. The code below will then check my worksheet and if it finds the value will place it into my ListBox.
Dim x As String
myvalue = ComboBox1.Value
A = 5
Do
x = Sheet1.Cells(A, 4).Value
If x = "" Then Exit Sub
If x = myvalue Then Me.ListBox1.AddItem x
A = A + 1
Loop Until Sheet1.Cells(A, 4).Value = ""
The problem is how to alter this code to place the value from column 5 into the ListBox as well as the Value from column 4
i want to do is transfer records held in one list box to another list box when a command button is clicked. The list boxes both contain 6 columns. My code is attatched
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a summary Calendar that would display all the names of the people who are off on a given day. I have a grid where I display each day of the month and a person in the group has their own column. If they are out of the office for any reason their name appears in that row. In the big Summary Calendar cell for each day of the month I want to look across all the people columns for that day and then display the names of the people who are not going to be in the office. Can I do this by a formula or will using VBA work best.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a Validation drop down box (column B) and a defined range drop down box (column E linked to the Totals tab with A2-A31 defined as Products) that I need to activate everytime data is added to a new line in column 'A' and cells in column 'B' or 'E' are selected. Additionally, they need to activate if the cells in column 'B' or 'E' are selected for any of the old data so changes can be made. This will help reduce the overall file size and calculation time for a year's worth of data.
There is already some code on the worksheet that looks like it can be adapted if someone knows how to code in the drop down boxes.
I have a sheet which contains a list of products. I have created a check box next to each name with the linked cell in the adjecent column. I have formatted the cell so you can see the TRUE or FLASE.
I need to be able to select different products and then when I run a macro, it places all of the selected products onto the second sheet. I just need it so it lists the products in column A with no blank rows.
Can this be done using Index/Match? Would a macro which achieves all this be possible?
I wanted to create a multiple drop down lists (using data validation) in column B (50 in all, every 3rd line) whereby, multiple, comma deliminated, results would display in each of the cells - for use elsewhere in the spreadsheet.
I found some code (as follows) which worked perfectly for me
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rngDV As Range
Dim oldVal As String
[Code].....
As I mentioned above, I don't really understand the code and all I know is that the line about halfway down "If Target.Column = 2 Then" is defining which column (B) this will work in.
The problem I am having is that I need to protect the worksheet and the moment I "protect" the worksheet, the functionality of displaying multiple values goes away and the drop-down list reverts to only displaying one of the available values.
