Macro To Edit Userform In Other Workbook
Apr 23, 2008
I'm writing a macro that opens another Excel file, opens a userform within that file, and manipulates the data. I've never tried to do this before. I keep getting "Object Required" error. My macro fails on the "frmMain.Show" where "frmMain" is the userform I am interested in. Here's the
Excel.Application.Workbooks.Open ("C:DataCalculations.xls") 'Open file
frmMain.Show 'Bring-up UserForm
frmMain.cbUser.Value = "Guest" 'Sign as Guest
frmMain.cbVariables.Value = var 'number of variables

I have a macro where I try to edit the links after I open the workbook. I used the macro recorder to get the code, and if I use it, it works great. However, when I try to insert some variables in the code, I get an error saying "Method 'ChangeLink' of object'_Workbook' failed. I don't know why I'm getting this error. Below is code.
Sub MyCode
Dim VarianceMonth As Variant
VarianceMonth = VarianceReport.cboMonth.ListIndex + 1
Windows(VarianceMonth & "_2007 Forecast (LGBU).xls").Activate
ActiveWorkbook.ChangeLink Name:= _
"\sf1d3shareLGBU_ FinanceAdministrative ReportsMonthly Forecasts" & VarianceMonth & "_2007" & VarianceMonth - 1 & "_2007 Forecast (Ancillary).xls" _
, NewName:= _
"\sf1d3shareLGBU_ FinanceAdministrative ReportsMonthly Forecasts" & VarianceMonth & "_2007" & variancmeonth & "_2007 Forecast (Ancillary).xls" _
, Type:=xlExcelLinks

I've been trying to resolve an issue with the userform that i created. It adds new records to the sheet "Data" but i can't seem to add a search/edit function to it.
It could be either a combobox with the existing Project Id's or a text box + a control button, so a user could enter Project Id and hit a button.
The spreadsheet example is attached : Project Entry Form.xls

I have created a complaint database with a spreadsheet and a userform in Excel. Only part of the information is known at the time the user enters the complaint. I have created a search feature so I can search for a record using a unique identifier called RecordNo. I can call up a record and change the information in the record or add additional information. When I hit the command button save it stores a duplicate record with the new information. I don't want duplicate records.
Also some of the data fields do not fill the original data. It seems to be inconsistent in the way it loads the original record data into the userform. This issue happens consistently with the weather items that are check boxes and also with the Complaint Taken By field. I am a beginner and have found most of the code to write this database online. So perhaps there are some conflicts between code from different sources. I've uploaded the spreadsheet and userform.

I have a userform that I have created to enter new part information to a spreadsheet but I am wanting to also use the userform to edit exsisting part information. My spreadsheet consist of part #, name of part, description of part, date manufactured, and date sold (Column A-E). My question is can a userform be used to edit information that is already present on the spreadsheet? I am looking to edit any entries that do not have a date in the date sold field.

How can I edit the employee's Name and badge number thru a userform?
What should we depend on to save the employee's name before changing it, in order to use it as a find key?

I'm coming along nicely with my user form. My last issue was trying to get it to search/recall data from the "Data" tab. This works perfectly when only 1 record is found, and if multiple line items are found, a message box pops up and tells me how many records are found that meet the criteria. However, I am now struggling to get the code to work properly to past the details of those records into the list box, so that the user can select which record they want to edit.
I get a Run-Time Error '1004' Application-Defined or Object-Defined error and it points to the section in red:
Code:
Sub FindAll()
Dim strFind As String 'what to find
Dim rFilter As Range 'range to search
Set rFilter = Worksheets("Data").Range("E3", Range("h65536").End(xlUp))
Set Rng = Worksheets("Data").Range("E3", Range("e65536").End(xlUp))
strFind = Me.cbosearch.Value

I have downloaded the sample file at the bottom of the 'Contextures' webpage that explaines how to create a simple userform...
[url]
at the very bottom there is a 'Download the sample file' link
This simple form alows the user to input 4 bits of data, PartID, Location,Date and Qty. This data is saved in another part of the worksheet called 'Partsdata'
What I want is somehow for the user to be able to seach for a PartID from the list in the Partsdata worksheet. When this PartId is found, display the userform in a way that the data relating to that PartID can be edited and then re-saved when the user clicks on the 'add this part' button.
For example....
Msg Box or user form dispalyed stating...."Enter PartID to edit"
a search of the PartID column (columnA) in PartsData worksheet is carried out and when the matching PartID is found the corresponding information is displayed in a user form that can be edited by the user.
Once the user has made any changes to the data shown, the user clicks on the 'Add this part' button and the new data is re-saved using the same partid reference.

Ive searched for a solution around this site and it all leads to a dead end. I have a userform created in Excel, where I want to import a existing worksheet from another workbook and display it on the user form, so the user can edit it. I have tried using the Office SPreadsheet 10.0. By copy the excel file contents and pasting it into the spreadsheet cells, but PasteSpecial doesnt work so all the formating is out the door.

I work in a small team of 5 people, but each of us is very busy and get emails from our manager asking us to complete different tasks. I have made a userform in excel for our manager to create the tasks in and put all the details in sheet1. This creates each separate task on a separate row. Now I want each of my colleagues to log into the sheet and be able to retrieve a task with the same userform. I am giving each task it's own ID, so I want to be able to search by this and the userform will be populated with the task details. I also have combobox's with the status of each task (Completed, In progress etc.) I want to be able to change these in the userform too.
VB:
Private Sub UserForm_Click()
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim LastRow As Object
Set LastRow = Sheet1.Range("b65536").End(xlUp)
[Code].....

Any way to edit data that has been populated in a Userform Listbox? I am trying to create a userform which has a multicolumn (3 columns) listbox and data being populated from Sheet1!A:C. I am thinking that there would be an Edit button where when clicked the data for the row that is selected in the listbox is shown in 3 textboxes (one for each cell on the respective row) on the same form which can be edited. When the user clicks Save. The Listbox would be updated with new values (e.g. write over the values in Sheet1.

his is of Jaafarian proportions. This is in relation to an earlier post on dragging and dropping. That is all worked out thanks to help from board members. For the sake of your own curiosity, this project will tile worksheet windows (actually specific ranges from other worksheets and other workbooks), borderless, within a single userform and allow dragging and dropping between ranges that reside in different workbooks. That is all worked out as well. The only roadblock I am running into right now is that I cannot edit directly in the cell when the worksheet is displayed in the userform. Probably has something to do with placing a worksheet in a userform to begin with.
CTRL-R to show the form or run maco, "ShowForm". If you double click a cell and attempt to go into edit mode, it will appear to be locked up. It's not, just hit enter to escape the cell. The problem is the userform is a child window of the application. Hence, focus can pass to the parent window or another child (the formula bar in particular) which is exactly the behaviour expected. How do I get around this?

I have a spreadsheet that summarizes variations on a project. On the "Variations" tab a userform pops up that asks the user to select from 3 options:
1. Create new variation
This launches another userform that allows the user to enter the necessary information and create a variation sheet. This userform updates "VarSummary" and also creates a new sheet for each variation created. I have been able to do all of this so far. The summary sheet "Variations" tab uses the data on the "VarSummary" tab. This is the code I used to add variation
Private Sub cmdadd_Click()
Dim iRow As Long
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Worksheets("VarSummary")
With ws
iRow = . Cells(.Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
'Copy the data to the database
.Cells(iRow, 1).Value = Me.txtVarRecNo.Value
.Cells(iRow, 2).Value = Me.txtDate.Value
.Cells(iRow, 3).Value = Me.txtChg.Value
.Cells(iRow, 4).Value = Me.txtSrcRef.Value
.Cells(iRow, 5).Value = Me.cbstatus.Value
.Cells(iRow, 6).Value = Me.DirQty.Value
.Cells(iRow, 7).Value = Me.DirVal.Value............................

A.) As a user is entering data into a userform two specific values need to be checked in the existing data sheet.
Textbox1 ( date)
Combobox (operation name) {4 tabs on from textbox1)
They relate to the data stored in columns 'A' and 'E' respectivly.
What I'd like is, as the user exits combobox4 to check if the values already exist. If they do; fill the coresponding textboxes with those values and allow the user to make any amendments, then have it SAVE to the SAME row, would a record number be necessary to accomplish this?
B.) For a future development, Im thinking of applying the same principle to a different project, where 3 values need checking.
Textbox9000 (date) Column 'A'
ComboBox1002 (Staff member) Column 'B'
Combobox1003 (operation name) Column 'C'
Possible complications are that below combobox1003 there will be 12 other comboboxes(a value title, from column header) with associated textboxes alongside(value previously entered by user).
There will be 22 possible values for the comboboxes(the values will be the same column headers) The user will only ever have the choice of making 12 entries though.
Does any one have any spare code laying round for this one..

I have a sheet that creates a list of columns that may need to be updated or edited as necessary. Column A is a list of names that are alphabetized automaticaly from column D, so any change in column D would need to be reflected in column A. The attached sheet will (I hope) make things clearer.

My purpose is to give my endusers a workbook with a macro in it which applies changes to existing workbooks on their computers. I want the enduser to select each workbook to apply the changes and have the macro capture the names of the workbooks so they can verify that all of the appropriate workbooks have been changed.
I’m trying to change two types of data: (1) text, (2) formulas.
Here's what little I have, but not much is working.
Sub ChangeBACKLOG()
MsgBox "Open the FILE to which the Backlog fix is to be applied."
Dim targetWorkbook
dlgSource = Application.Dialogs(xlDialogOpen).Show
Set sourceWorkbook = ThisWorkbook
Set targetWorkbook = Workbooks.Item(Workbooks.Count)

I have a workbook which contains a list of data on the first worksheet. I need for a macro to copy the name in each row,along with its data in that row and paste it into the corresponding locations on a template located on another worksheet. It would then save the file using the date (col. a) , then the words " Scorecard for" and then the name (col. b), then loop for each row until it reaches the end of the list.
I located this code here here.However I dont know how to modify it to fit my needs. I dont have 2 separate categories for two score cards in column b. It would all run off one scorecard and each row of data.

I'd prefer to edit links with the source workbook open, however I receive this error when I do "A formula in this worksheet contains one or more invalid references." I am able to edit links with the source workbook closed but this takes far too much time to be satisfied with that as the solution. I have used vlookup formulas and the index-match method and they both take about the same amount of time to update. I've separated each worksheet and used the "name manager" add-in and have searched all links for any type of error. I feel like I'm missing something. Is there a way to fix this "invalid reference" error so that I can edit my links with the source workbook open?

1) I need to add an edit check
2) have a copy of Active Workbook Path stamped onto spreadsheet with date and time to create a visual record of where the file has been saved (described after the code below).
1) I need to verify that two cells (S7 and S9) are not blank before running my code below (=IF(OR(S7<>"",S9<>""),RUN CODE,"You must select your Provider or Division before you can save this document")).
- If both of these cells are blank a message box should notify the user that they must select the provider and/or division before they can continue with the save.
- If one or more of these cells are not blank the code below should run.

I am trying to create a data entry sheet to enter quotes on. When a quote is received, I click on my "Add quote" button and a userform appears. Data is entered into the userform (frmEntryForm) and returned back to the next available row.
I also need to be able to:
Edit a row by double-clicking it. When a row is double-clicked, data from that row is passed back to the userform, edited and returned back to the same row (to prevent duplicates).Validate that all fields are complete within the userform where relevant (i.e. if the work is not complete or in progress then the "Invoice Number" and "Actual Cost" fields are disabled and blanked to prevent entry (I think this is almost sorted judging by my tests)

I have a macro that allows me to type numbers in cells and it auto adds to the previous value... what would be nice is if when i hit enter the cell focus stays at the current cell and doesnt move the next cell down... that way if i wanted to enter multiple values into one cell i wouldnt have to touch the arrow keys to get back to the cell
e.g: i enter a value into A1 and hit enter, instead of the box focus moving to A2, it stays at A1
Heres my current
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("DATA")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Not IsNumeric(Target.Value) Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
Target.Value = Target.Value + oldVal
Application.EnableEvents = True

I have data in the first 50 rows.
Then in row 51 it column A it starts 0's.
I run the macro, it deletes all the rows with 0's, and it deletes row 50 also some reason. I do not understand the above macro very good to edit it, and the fact it contains 5 1's doesnt help me lol
