Not Allow Cell Selection ...
Jun 16, 2009
It is actually a form - much like Access. I have protected it so it can't be changed. They can click on a particular cell, but as soon as they try to enter anything it gives them a message and entry is not allowed.
Is it possible to even prevent them from selecting an individual cell, i.e., restricting them to only clicking the control buttons ? I realize this is a spreadsheet, other products would probably have worked better, etc., however it's kind of like the last minor hurdle before releasing it for general use. The world certainly will not stop if I can't - just thought I would check with the expers.

I tried very hard to design a leave roster for user to mark their leave application. The criteria are as follows:
1. 4 applications per date
2. a region of worksheet (i.e. "A2 to H20) will be defined for users to "click" on the cells (within the defined region) to mark their application.
3. once a cell is clicked (i.e. marked), it cannot be altered.
4. each click will automatically increase the total by 1.
I got the following code to deal with the situation but user can still click on any cell outside the region (in fact I fail to define the region).
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim m
ad = Mid(ActiveCell.Address, 2, 1)
m = Range(ad & 24).Value 'here a formula "CountA(A2,A20)" will be place in the cell (24, c).......................

I'm trying to build an investment calculator. Tried searching "calculator" as keyword but return nothing similiar.
There are eight cell : [ A ][ B ][ C ][ D ][ E ][ F ][ G ][h]
[ H ] is price of the leverage
[A] is X balance
[b] is X lot size
[C] is X amount of money use to get x lot
[D] is X percentage of money use to get x lot
[E] is X point gain
[f] is X money gain
[G] is balance + money gain
Ignore the formulae for leverage to determine 1 lot price. Take 1 lot = 250.
What I'm looking for is when I enter any value at cell B, C or D, it will automatically calculate the value for either B, C or D cell.
Let say, the balance is 10000.
If I enter 2 at cell B. Then, it will calculate the value for cell C & D.
If I enter 750 at cell C, then it will calculate value for cell B & D.
If I enter 25 at cell D, it will calculate value for cell B & C.

If a user selects certain options from a drop down list created by cell verification (from list), is it possible to display an input box and have the resulting input populate on another worksheet in the workbook? I have an attendance template I'm working with and if a user selects OT (Over Time) then a input box is displayed prompting for how many hours. The overtime is then tracked on another worksheet.

I have a workbook with two sheets. The idea behind the workbook is an Interview Guide to be used just before an Interview. For now my problem is this.
Sheet 2 "Competencies" is just data. It stores competencies with their associated definitions and questions.
Sheet 1 "Control Page" is the sheet where the questions will eventually go. The user (Interviewer) will input data on the first two pages which will include name of candidate, date of interview etc. but they will also select 5 Competencies from the already existing drop down menus on page two. From there as the selections are made I wish for a code to copy the corresponding definition on sheet 'Competencies" to cells lower down in sheet "Control page".
I don't see a place to upload a file as I have a sample of the sheet ready to go.

I have attached a portion of an excel file I am using at the moment. What I require is a piece of VBA code which will allow me to copy selected data based on a combo box selection. What needs to happen is this :-
If the selection in the "Index" worksheet combo box related to "Month" in cell G19 is for instance "December", I would like the macro to compare this cell value to the cell values in cells C96, C124, C152, C180, C209, C236, C263 and C290 in the "Tech Services" worksheet and where the values match.......copy the commentary (Range C126:Z147 in December's case) to the range C34:Z55.

I would like to know if there is a way to expand the selection of cells from the current cell you are on to the very bottom cell available in the spreadsheet.
For example, I want to apply a formula from A12 - the very last A cell row in the spreadsheet.

I am working on a project where user has to select an item from a listbox, however there is a condition that if user select an item, other items of listbox should be disabled so that he/she can not select any other item.
Is there any way to do that as I tried
VB : Listbox.enabled = False
and
VB : Listbox.locket = True
in Listbox - Click/Change but no desirable results got.

I want to have a drop down list in a cell so that the value in the cell can be only selected from two columns of data. Additionally once the data from the first column has been selected I want to be able to limit the inputs the user can select from in the second column.
e.g. In cell C115 I want to have the value BDS05.
I want to be able to select the value BDS from a drop down list of values and once that value has been selected I want to be able select 05 from a list of values from 01 to 14
If I select BCS as the first value then I want the second set of values to be limited to 01 to 02 etc.
I have read about combo boxes and list boxes and I'm a bit confused about the best way to achieve this (or even if I can).

I would like assistance as to select a range where the end can be any cell.
The top of the range is fixed, but the bottom gets altered when you insert rows. I have used the "Selection.End(xlUp).Select" command. It does give me the end of the range that I need. How do I store this location if I need to select that Range? I need to keep this value as I need to select that range and print it.

I have a worksheet that has only 2 input cells. Everything else is display only. I know I can protect cells from being changed, but can I format a range of cells so that the user cannot even select the cell?

I have is is some code that ends up selecting a certain range, as an example A2:A60 but this could be any range (A2:A65, B2:B65 etc) what I need is a bit of code that selects the cell 2 rows down from the last cell in the selection.
so for the example above, if A2:A60 is selected, the bit of code after would select the cell A62.

I am putting together an order expediting sheet.
I get the code to refer to single cells, but cannot get it to refer to multiple cells in the same column.
The code i am using is:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
If Sheets("Sheet1").Range("E6") > Sheets("Sheet1").Range("B2") + 3 Then Sheets("Sheet1").Range("F6") = "YES"
If Sheets("Sheet1").Range("G6") = "YES" Then Sheets("Sheet1").Range("F6").Clear
If Sheets("Sheet1").Range("F6") = "YES" Then Range("F6").Interior.Color = vbRed
End Sub
I need to have the ranges E6, F6, G6 to refer to E6 - E10000, F6 - F10000, G6 - G10000

I'm looking to go to every 8th cell in a column when I hit the enter key. I was thinking of selecting a small range say from A2 which is zero to A10 which would also be zero then A18 which is zero. The reason being I have a lot of figures to put in to each zero cell then I select "Series" to fill the cells in-between with the incremental figures between the two zeros which would be the difference between the two zero figures.

I am looking for VB Code / Formula which will does the following:
Before the Cell is selection; it will shows a message for guidance purpose; but the moment the same is selected; the Validation list which I prepared will appear.
For Eg: before the Cell is selected; it will show as"< select from drop-down list>"; but the moment cell is selcted; the normal validation list will appear.
I know that there is Input Message option in Validation List; but this appears only when the cell is selected. I am looking for message which will appear before the cell is selected.

I am trying to write a macro to export a selection to a text file. I have the export to text file down, but can not figure out how to automate the selection. All of the cells that I want to select are the color "lime." The selection will start at B4 and run down to B?. These cells have conditional formatting that color them lime if the adjacent C column contains a "P."

Which function would I use if I wanted a macro to run upon the user either clicking on a cell within a certain column, or tabbing to a certain column.
Right now I am using
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
End Sub
But it doesn't take effect until after the user has inputted something into the cell.

I have a table and need to protect the sheet. From searching I see its a common problem as the table wont auto expand on a protected sheet.
I was thinking maybe I could create some sort of change event so if a user selects cells on Column A,B,G,H rows 13-1000 the sheet will auto unlock then lock again once they leave those cells.
I think it may need a few seconds delay to give table chance to autoexpand before sheet is locked again.
