I have a scroll (form control) linked with data from another sheet. It scrolls nicely and works fine but I'd like to be able to update the data sheet and then the table with the scroll automatically update too.
I have never written or used a macro before and I have a simple macro task to complete:
I have Column L (L4:L10) of seven scroll bars that move according to number changes in column F (F4:F10). I want to create a form control command button that resets the changes on the scroll bars according to static column of numbers in Column E (E4:E10).
I don't know if it matters, but I'll add that I plan to add a second button that does the same thing with a different column of data. I assume I'll simply replicate whatever procedure I use in the first button - is this okay?
In the menu via TOOLS-->OPTIONS-->VIEW I am trying to remove the scroll bars from just one worksheet but when unticked, this option affects all of the worksheets in my workbook. Is there a way to just nail this selection down to one sheet via properties?
I have a Drop Down Box that I am hiding upon selection of another DDB. I can get it to be hide/show using the following code:
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Drop Down 4").Visible = False
and
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Drop Down 4").Visible = True
The only problem is, that when it becomes visible again, the DDB appears in a different location about an inch to the right of where I orginally had it. However when I scroll using my mouse so the DDB is not showing on my screen, and scroll back up, the DDB jumps back into correct position, with the correct size.
Is there anyway to keep the DDB fixed upon making it visible, without having to scroll up and down? As it will look really bad to my end user.
VBA Code of a custom control button, Scroll Bar, that mimics the same code as the corresponding form button, scroll bar? Where a cell is selected and the scroll bar changes the cell value from 0 to 100 in single intervals.
I followed the instruction in the TechRepublic article "10 steps to creating a scrolling Excel chart"; [URL].... The problem is that the scroll bar stops working at a certain point and will not bring up the last 8 months of year 4 of my data. I get error messages and the chart turns blank.
I also tried a different method (again for a scroll bar and a rolling chart) as outlined in [URL].... There are a number of similar articles with almost identical formulas. Here, the first 8 month of year one are inaccessible = error messages and chart turns blank.
I have 4 years worth of temperature data. The original data table from where the Index function draws the data is 1463 rows long (minus 2 rows for the header). The "magic" number where the scroll bar stops working is 995 for the current value. From a current value of 994 onwards, the entire matrix displays error messages "Ref#".
In the second case, the magic number is 1242 which equates to August of the first year. 1241 and lower for the current value will freeze the chart.
How the scroll bar control generates and gets hung up on either of these two magic numbers is a mystery to me.
I set the control properties at the beginning, i.e. Jan 1 of the first year to: Current value =1, Minimum =1 (I also tried 0), Maximum = 1500, Incremental =5, page =30, linked cell =$E$2. What is most puzzling to me is the fact that the scroll bar does work but only for part of the data set.
I have a form that is dynamically created at runtime. I have assigned the controls to a frame in VBA and also attached a horizontal scrollbar manually to that frame.
How can I control the scrollbar in VBA to appear, when columns of controls added to the frame exceeds 10. If not I want the scrollbar to be invisible?
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() Const cTextBoxHeight As Long = 16 Const cTextBoxWidth As Long = 40 Const cGap As Long = 10 Dim W As Integer Dim a As Integer
What I need to do is add a scroll bar to my text box in my form. I used the properties of the text box to add a scroll bar but when you preview it you can't see it. When you click somewhere inside the form it appears and is workable but not when it hasn't been clicked on. How do I make the scroll bar appear from the start. this is a vertical one ad is on a text box within the form
On a userform, I have 5 paragraphs of text that the user needs to read. The problem is the user can't see all 5 paragraphs, the user is only able to see about two paragraphs. I don't want to make the userform larger but I would like to add some type of scroll bar that would allow the user to scroll up and down to view all of the text.
I need to control the amount of decimals allowed by the entry of another column same row so I do not have to format the cells everytime to get the correct decimal places. I need all my data in one table so I can do pivot tables.
How can I have a form field automatically fill some aspects of the data that's input? I've seen it before, like a phone# field automatically including the dashes.
I would like to automatically include colons in a time field. So if I were to type "081500" (or even "81500"), it would complete it as "08:15:00".
i have a form control listbox (list box 5), it is multi select, i need to create a for next statement that loops through the list in and tells me which "row numbers" as it were are selected. i.e if the 1st and 3rd ones are blue, it returns 1,3 in a cell? (lets say cell A1).
I have a control sheet that I am building and my sliderbar is making my data just disapear and not replacing it with any new data. Can this be fixed if I am able to reverse the sliderbar
I am trying to use the Chartspace object on a VBA form in Excel 2002, but am unable to find out how to specify the speadsheet data to be used for each series. I have found out how to add series, and to add titles & legend etc.
I have many Form Control Check Boxes that all link to another sheet on row 3.
I have many changes to make but only want to implement the change related to the check box.
This code works perfect when you manualy type true or false on row 3 but not if the check box makes the change.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) ThisCol = Target.Column If Target.Row = 3 Then RESULT = MsgBox(Cells(1, ThisCol) & " = " & Cells(3, ThisCol), vbOKOnly, "CLICK RESULTS") End If End Sub
Why does this not work when a check box changes the value in row 3?
I have several files with form control buttons that automate functions but, on occasion, they get smaller relative to the worksheet they're in. At some point, they become unuasable unless they're manually resized.
I have a rather large sheet with lots of embedded form control buttons, each one with a document link. Is there a function (no VBA) to search for a specific form control button in excel? for example: i want to find the form control button which is linked to the "application" document.
Does anyone know how to make a form control (ex combobox, textbox) have multiple columns so that it would behave like 4 controls in one. What im going for is a control that looks like the control used when setting windows system time "12:30:00 AM" So "12" is in col 1, ":" is in col 2, "30" is in col 3, ":" is in col 4, "00" is in col 5, and "AM" is in col 6.
Now I'm interested in some refinements to make this little toy I'm building work faster. I want the user to be able to enter data without having to click the text box in order to proceed. My code
Userform1. show
just brings up the form with a text box in it, and the user has to click in the box to get started. Is there code I can add that will put the cursor in the text box so it's ready to go?
I suppose this seems trivial, but it will speed the data entry part of this little project up and every little bit counts. . . .
I 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.
how to get a list of the properties for form control shapes (not control toolbox shapes) that are placed on a worksheet (not on a userform). Eg., a button, checkbox, combobox, etc.
If it's possible, I'm interested in working with properties like "enabled", "caption", etc. that aren't listed on the "Format Control Properties" dialog.
I understand you can edit properties of a form control shape via VBA code (See example below), however, I can't seem to find anything within the object browser about them.
EXAMPLE With ActiveSheet.Shapes("Scroll Bar 2").ControlFormat .Min = 10 .Max = 150 End With
I need to extract proper unit price of a component from a large data base. So far, I have created drop down lists so that the users can select different parameters for each component. How do I use the user selected parameter to pin point the proper unit price from the large database?
I am working on an Inventory control worksheet where i have all parts used in a certain assembly on the left (A) followed by Qty per assembly (B) and then current baseline Inventory (C). In columns D-max i will have at the top a pull down menu to let the user decide if they are subtracting from inventory (Purchase Order) or adding to inventory (Fulfillment). Under both circumstances, depending on which is selected I would like a different form to pop up which allows the user to enter values to control the chart.
If Purchase order is selected then a pop up will ask the order number, date, and quantity. This will then fill in three specific cells in the chart which control an equation to subtract the number of parts based on the order quantity.
If Fulfillment is selected I would like a pop up or the entire parts list to appear with a field to enter the number of parts being stocked. The program will then add these parts to the previous inventory entry.
In the example attached you can see that right now you have to manually enter the number of units ordered, then an If statement takes over to calculate the new inventory level (If statement used to keep things neat and possibly to incorporate fulfillment at a later time). At this time there is no way for me to enter stocking transactions.
I have made an excel sheet for multiple choice questions, in which person needs to click on submit button after completing with the test & pop up will say "Your score is__". Now, I want to want to add one more button named "Reset". I want below :
results:
1. Person should not be able to make any changes after clicking on "Submit" button.
2. If one tries to click on "Reset" button, it should ask for password.
3. After keying password for "Reset" button, all questions should be reset so that next person can give test.
I have attached an example excel sheet for reference : DoM1.xlsm
how to insert an attractive form control button instead of the horrible default grey buttons that come with Excel? I've seen it done, so I know it can be done.
I am having some trouble with cascading two tier drop down. I cannot seem to find out how to do it. I am trying to create a two tier cascading drop down in form control. I want the first drop down to be Products we have and the second one to be customers. I also want to be able to create a bar chart from these drop downs where after we choose our customer by product, it shows the revenue we have recieved from the customer by months. Is there a way to do this? I figured out how to do this with just one combo box, but I am unable to do a cascading one.
I am designing (badly!) an excel file that is intended to be as user friendly as possible. I would like to add in a navigation feature using a list box or other appropriate control form that will take the user to the correct tab in the workbook depending on which item they choose from the list.
My aim is too hide all the tabs at the bottom whilst not crowding my page with multiple command buttons, and still be able to navigate easily through the workbook.
