Listbox Click Event Apparently Called Without Clicking

Aug 3, 2007

I am writing an application in Excel 2007 VBA (on Windows Vista) which presents the user with a series of 3 userforms, each containing a listbox. The user clicks on an item in the list box of the first form and then I use the listbox click event to process the answer and assemble the list items for the listbox in the second form. This sequence is repeated in the second form (user clicks item in listbox, click event processed and used to generate 3rd userform/listbox). This seemed to work fine at first but now in some cases after clicking an item in the first listbox, I am presented with the third listbox. Apparently a choice was made in the second list box and the third list box created based on that choice but I never was presented with the second userform/listbox.

I don't think it is related to the mechanics of clicking the mouse because it occurs repeatably as follows: I had a list (for listbox 2) that was 3 items long and everything was working. I added a fourth item. Now it consistently chooses the 3rd item in this list without ever presenting me the userform/listbox 2. If I remove the fourth item it presents me with userform/listbox 2 and I click on an item and everything works as intended.

The code for the second listbox callback is very short and simple:

Private Sub SecondListBox_Click()

Dim choice As String

choice = SecondListBox.Value
Unload Me
MakeThirdListBox (choice)

End Sub

ListBox Click Event Not Working

Feb 14, 2013

I currently have a set of ListBox controls on a worksheet tab. They are all configured as multi-select and i have the values populated via the ListFillRange properties. Each listbox has an '{All}' option; when the user clicks on this value I want to de-select all other previously selected values. The code for this is straightforward enough, but I cannot get it to fire using the _Click event. Why this is not working?

Additionally, I attempted to use the _Change event but quickly got caught in recursive loops which obviously is not going to cut it.

Excel 2010 :: Run Listbox CLICK Event After Item Is Selected?

Feb 21, 2013

Excel 2007/2010.

Hope this is fairly easy to solve. I have Screen #1 with a listbox with a CLICK event. The event populates a combobox below (with items based on listbox's selection). Listbox is NOT multi-select. Code runs fine manually, i.e., user opens screen selects from listbox, then can select from combobox.

I now what to open and make selections from another form/screen, Screen #2. I've written code to select the proper item from Screen #2's listbox but this does NOT trigger the listbox's CLICK event for me so the combobox isn't populated so I can then make that selection from Screen #1, also. I've tried setting focus to listbox first, then making selection, but that doesn't work.

QUESTION: Is there code that selects from a listbox in a way that mimics the user clicking the selected item in the listbox?

The alternatives I can think of are:
1) Change Screen #2's listbox code from CLICK to CHANGE event, but I'd rather not.
2) Move CLICK event code to sub-procedure and then call from both listbox CLICK and Screen #2 code
3) Some sendkey string like ENTER?

Would be easier to just mimic the user click, if possible.

With frm_Screen2
'Select item type from listbox
With .LBox_Items

[Code].....

VBA - Click And Hold Event

Apr 11, 2013

I am creating a spreadsheet that has various form controls, etc... in it and I wanted to create a "help" macro. I have a small Question Mark icon and I want the user to be able to click the icon and have little text boxes appear on the excel sheet with instructions.

I was wondering instead of making a toggle event where the user clicks once to turn on and again to turn off, if there was a way that the user could click and hold on the icon to make my text boxes visible....and when the user releases they disappear.

Looping Within Double Click Event

Jun 13, 2007

I would like to create a macro in which, when the user double clicks on a cell, that cell will be shaded yellow and other cells within the Workbook containing the same value as that cell will be crossed out. I have come up with the below code, but it doesn't work correctly. Any ideas on what I have done wrong? Would also like it to not cross out the cell the user double clicked on.

Private Sub Workbook_SheetBeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)

Dim wk As Worksheet
Dim selectedName As String
selectedName = ActiveCell.Value

With Selection.Interior
.ColorIndex = 6
.Pattern = xlSolid
End With

For Each wk In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets

For i = 200 To 2 Step -1
If ActiveSheet.Cells(i, 2).Value = selectedName Then
ActiveSheet.Cells(i, 2).Font.Strikethrough = True
End If
Next
Next
End Sub
[/code]

Using Enter Key To Trigger Click Event

Jun 23, 2007

I am working with a large legacy file/program which has a lot of issues. Foremost, and unfortunately this cannot be changed, is that all of the controls were placed directly on the worksheets instead of on Userforms.

I had previously posted code from the legacy file which may have been excessively complicated. So I edited my post to this simple example. Sheet1 has one textbox and one command button. Sheet 2 is blank.

If Sheet2.Activate is commented, everything works fine. If Sheet2.Activate is executed, then Excel crashes....

Command Button Click Event

Dec 2, 2008

I have a UserForm with 2 command buttons.

The first Command Button ( called CommandButton22 ) displays the result of some other calculation as its Caption ... this caption will therefore be changing from time to time.

I would like the second Command Button (called EnterButton ), when clicked, to send the caption from CommandButton22 to whatever cell on the active spreadsheet the user clicked into just prior to clicking on the 'EnterButton'.

I would like each time that I click on the 'EnterButton' for the Caption in CommandButton22 to be sent to the next cell down and so on and so on etc.

Copy And Round With Click Event

Mar 6, 2007

I use a CommandButton on a UserForm to copy the contents of 12 TextBoxes into the last row on a sheet. I am getting numbers with too many places. I tried to use Round(), but it is not working.

Here is the original With Range("A65536").End(xlUp)
For i = 1 To 12
.Offset(0, i).Value = Me.Controls("TB" & i + 4).Value
Next i
End With

This gives me all of the decimal places.

Here is my attempt to use Round():
With Range("A65536").End(xlUp)
For i = 1 To 12
.Offset(0, i).Value = Round(Me.Controls("TB" & i + 4).Value)
Next i
End With

This gives me a type mismatch error.

Run SAME Code For Different Ranges Using Before Double Click Event

Apr 4, 2013

code to have check marks appear in multiple non-adjacent columns in a worksheet by double clicking.

The code I am using works for a single column : (The named range "Checkboxes1" is D4:D100)

VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Intersect(Target, Range("Checkboxes1")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub

[Code]......

However I also need the code to work on two other named ranges "Checkboxes2" (E4:E100) and "Checkboxes3" is G4:G100.

Activating Change Event On Button Click?

May 11, 2012

I have this code that ideally should change font color in usedRange to red upon button click. The problem is it's not working and I've been pulling my hair out all day (not that there's much left of it)

HTML Code:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim UsedRange As Range
Dim cel As Range

and the related "End If" this works i.e. if I click on any cell within respective sheet font in used range all changes to Red but I only want this to change on CommandButton1 click which I have inserted in sheet.

Double Click Event In Shared Workbook?

Jul 29, 2014

I have a Shared Workbook that 10 or 15 users are in and out of all day. In Column A on a few sheets I have a Before Double Click Event that launches a userform. The macro works for all users except this one person. I have tried several things:

1. I closed the file and Reopened it, to make sure that the user did not disable macros.

2. I checked the file on other users computers to see if the file was working properly (It was.)

3. I went to Options>Trust Center>Trust Center Settings>Macro Settings and Enabled All Macros on this User's system

None of these actions corrected the issue.

The purpose of the BeforeDoubleClick Event is to store Columns A:E data and then let the user add more information through the form. Once the User fills out the UserForm. A:E is transferred to one of a number of sheets depending on criteria in the UserForm. A:E is transferred along with the new information that the user has entered in the UserForm.

Another symptom is that on other computers when the Before Double Click Event is activated the Userform launches and the cursor does not appear in the cell until after the User Clicks a Command Button to Update Data on the Userform. On this individual's computer the cursor does appear in the cell without the Userform launching....

Before Double Click Event Of Worksheet Created By Program

Oct 19, 2007

My program(which is an add-in, or will be when I've finished writing it) creates a new worksheet called "Groups Summary" I would like this sheet to be locked so that the user can not modify anything on it. I would also like that if they double click a cell this will launch a userform if based on certain conditions.

I believe this code would have to go in the worksheet itself, so the question is how do I get the macro to enter code into a worksheet that it creates?

Is there a way to write it in a standard module and then automatically copy it when the worksheet is created?

Textbox Click Stops Event Code Running

Aug 26, 2007

I have a textbox from the drawing toolbar. When someone changes a cell then clicks in the textbox, Worksheet_Change does not run. If they double click in the cell, that's OK I can capture that event and protect the sheet, stopping them clicking in it. But if they just start typing in the cell, I can't capture that. I have seen some API code which captures keypresses, but it is not practical to use as it loops repeatedly. I could lock the textbox and have the user do something to unlock it, but this is a last resort.
