I have userform1 with commandbutton1 and listbox1. From listbox1 you make a selection and then you click commandbutton1 and it calls up another form (userform2.) On userform2 I have a label that I need to capture the value highlighted in listbox1 form userform1. How do I write this code to have label update to the listbox selection?
View 2 Repliesi have made a simple userform in which there are 3 combo boxes. a user chooses options from these boxes and then these options are put into 3 cells in a worksheet. what i need to do is create a macro or vba code so that the contents of these 3 cells are used as the Criteria for the autofilter.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to use a multi-select listbox as the argument for a subroutine. For some reason, I keep getting a run time error, type mismatch.

I have a userform with a button that wil run macro "sub1". If "sub1" encounters an error on a worksheet it wil show a custom
error messagebox(a userform) that contains the option "Don't ask me again". If true it sets a global variable. Do I need to use global variables to pass to the original procedure "sub1" for the ok/cancel buttons too or is there an other method?
"how do you move control/focus between Userforms and a worksheet that has Control objects on it?"
Here's what I am trying to do... I have created a Workbook that is basically a database and uses several Userforms to allow users to enter data into the database. I then have various CommandButtons in the Userforms that are intended to extract information from the database (which is stored in a worksheet) and display that information on a newly created worksheet. What I want to do is have a CommandButton on the new worksheet (the new worksheet is called "Results") that when pressed will delete the Results worksheet and return control to the Userform that created it.
So, the basic steps are:
* Display the Userform with the show method
* On the _click event of a particular Command button, Add a new worksheet
* Fill the worksheet with the pertinent data
* Place a Command button on the new worksheet and call it "Close"
* Somehow transfer "focus" or control to the new worksheet so the user can move around, print, do whatever on the new worksheet and then when done press "Close"
* When "Close" is pressed, delete the newly created worksheet and then return control to the original Userform.
Excel – Forms – Combo Box, cell updating.
I have a form (the main one) which accesses a second form, which accesses a third form. All forms have a combo box, control button and a text box.
The items selected in the control boxes are entered into cells (the base cells) in the spreadsheet, via “Control Source”. The text boxes access these cells and show the selected items, which are then copied to other cells via a macro on activating the control button in the main form.
The main form stays open while other items are selected and transferred. Some of the items may not be changed (reselected) as they may be common. The problem is that after a number of items have been selected and transferred, the base cells for the second and third text boxes do not update after a selection from the combo boxes, and they continue to show a previously selected item.
The problem can be solved by closing the 2nd and 3rd forms and starting again. What can I do keep the cells updating without closing the form down?
I have a workbook that has multiple spreadsheets. Data is added to the spreadsheets using userforms for each spreadsheet. I have created a pop-up calendar to add dates and want to know if there is a way to add dates without having to create multiple calendars for each txt field on each userform. I would like it so that when I click on the calendar it would put the date into the text field it was launched from.
This is the code in the calendar which only puts the date into the field named Dat_Clsd.

I have a WAY to complicated excel form that I'm going to move to Access but I need to have this working in the interim. The form has a dynamic element, the user can choose the number of items they are ordering and it unhides the required number of text boxes. To keep the scripting down a did a little work-around to update the database using a loop through the form controls:
'Save the main row
MainOrderRow = ActiveCell.Row
LastRow = MainOrderRow + (ExtraOrders - 1) ' Calculate the last row
ExtraOrderNo = 1
For DBRow = MainOrderRow To LastRow
' Save the text box name with the extra order number
k = "txtDescriptionMul" & ExtraOrderNo & ""
l = "txtQuantityMul" & ExtraOrderNo & ""
m = "txtTotalValueMul" & ExtraOrderNo & ""
n = "ComboBoxUnitMul" & ExtraOrderNo & ""...................
There is a macro i wrote that assigns buttons to different tasks, and it changes the name of each button to whatever task the user utilizes it for. I would like for the changes to be permanent, and i can do it if i can just keep the information in the userform. So, the most logical solution is to permanently change the names of the buttons in the userform, but this has to be accomplished by the users choice, which means i don't do it through the vbe. How do you change a button's caption permanently through macro?

I have Workbooks("A") and Workbooks("B") open.
Workbooks("A") contains Sheets("Sheet1"). Range("mySource").
Workbooks("B") contains Sheets("Sheet1").Range("myTarget").
Both ranges have been created by joining multiple ranges, in this way:
Union(Range("C1:C13"), Range("K1:K2"), Range("K5:K9"), Range("K14"), Range("Q6"), _
Range("I18"), Range("B20:P20"), Range("B24"), Range("C26:E26"), Range("C29"), _
Range("B34:B40"), Range("B44:Q50")).Name = "mySource" 'or "myTarget"
So: both ranges contain the same number of cells with the same addresses, and they have been added in the same order. However, if now I try to pass all values from mySource to myTarget, in this way:
Workbooks("B").Sheets("Sheet1").Range("myTarget").Value = _
Workbooks("A").Sheets("Sheet1").Range("mySource").Value
the result is a complete mess. Only the first "subrange" of mySource ("C1:C13") is passed to myTarget, and pasted in each of its "subranges", sometimes by rows and sometimes by columns...
You have an array and a range of the same size and you have to put the array values into the range, something like this:
Dim i As Integer
Dim myCell As Range
Dim myArray(10) As Double
i=0
For Each myCell In Range("A")
myCell.Value = myArray(i)
i = i + 1
Next myCell
except that this code looks a bit awkward to me.
I'm just starting to experiment with passing values between workbooks and between modules and so far I've managed to get it working. However, I now can not run the receiving module independently because of the passed value ? Let me explain ...
I use start/end dates within my modules to create date sensitive reports.

Dim DateStart As Date, DateEnd As Date

I am trying to convert some text from a number of cells to shape in another workbook. The problem is, if the text in one of the cells is too long (from testing it by too long i pretty much mean roughly 100 characters) then it doesn't pass anything at all to the shape. Is there a way around this so that all text will be converted to the shape regardless of its size?
By the way, the code is:
ActiveWorkbook. Sheets("Sheet1").Activate
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Text Box 1").TextFrame.Characters.Text = "1. " & Priority1Range.Value & Chr(10) & "2. " & Priority2Range.Value _
& Chr(10) & "3. " & Priority3Range.Value & Chr(10) & "4. " & Priority4Range.Value & Chr(10) & "5. " & _
Priority5Range.Value
The variables 'Priority1Range' represent the cell the text is in that I am trying to pass and it's variable type is Range. I have tried declaring the Priority1Range.Value as a string variable and using this instead but this doesn't work.
I have a simple spreadsheet of an inventory. Each row on this spreadsheet represents the data related to an item. I would like for a user to be able to INPUT a serial number via a userform. Then, I would like for the program to OUTPUT some information about that particular item (a few cells that should be on the same row as the serial number).
I attached an image diagram that may better represent what I am trying to do.
I have a worksheet which I've set to read-only, I am trying to get it to pull in information from external worksheets. I've created a Macro that will automatically bring in the data however it will only go into a pre-defined cell/row. I have another Macro which looks up the next available row (which is where I want the data to go) but can't get it to link into the macro's. In short, Macro1 brings in data, Macro2 finds next available row, Macro3 brings in another worksheet, Macro4 finds next available row etc etc.

how is the best method to link up forms to "talk" to my modules? (aka set variables inside my module script)
the way i understand it with my C++ background, it seems like separate forms and modules act much like private declarations do inside class calls.
I know that in C++ i can declare a friend class to grant access to communication between classes... and i'm wondering if such a procedure is possible in VBA as well...
or to break it down for those not familiar with C++, quite simply, is there a method of code i can implement to have different user forms and modules to talk to eachother? as it seems that any variable declaration is all inclusive to that one object.
The only way i can think of passing variables is by having my code create a worksheet, paste variables one by one into cells, bounce to the destination module, and import those declarations one by one through the cell contents, and remove the sheet after use...
I know i can do it that way, but i really dont want to as that is pretty darn sloppy, and a mickey mouse way to tie my program together.
how can i store the values of an autofilter's list in a array using VBA.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've created a variable number (i) of text boxes at run time (i also named them, "txt"&i, at the same time), i'm now trying to get the values entered in these to fit into a column that has been inserted during the same sub routine.

I am building a table for staffing purposes, and I basically only need to controls to "validate"/approve the table.
1. The number of staff put in must equal the required amount of staff (E column)
2. The same staff cannot be put on twice for the same time period (which I have done by the OR(F7=G7,F7=H7,G7=H7) as part of the validation)
My problem is that sometimes I need 0 staff (when its closed), but when I leave it blank obviously it wont approve the table because of rule #2 above, since it thinks the blanks are the same staff member.
I have tried with some ISBLANK statements, but it wont work.
Is there a way to make the colours in a chart (pie, column etc) correspond to a value? I'm using Excel 2002, soon to start using 2003.
For example, imagine a normal pie chart showing the population of each country in North, Central and South America. But for each country, colour gradations would be used to show levels of wealth (e.g., GDP per capita) as follows:
saturated red = bottom 20% (poorest)
pink = 21-40th percentile,
white = 41-60%,
gray = 61-80%,
black = 81-100% (richest)
Is this possible? And not to get too greedy, but can you use even finer gradations -- say, with ten categories, as opposed to the five in the example above?

It might be clearer to explain by a dummy code example:

Within the ComboBox properties, is there anyway to control after "enter" his hit, you move to the right instead of down (similar to the edit under Tools/Options)?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have created a userform within VBA which has a TreeView Control and a Spreadsheet control on it.
I have populated the TreeView control with data and what I want to be able to do is to drag the nodes off the TreeView control to the spreadsheet control.
I can drag onto a normal worksheet but not onto the spreadsheet control (the no drop mouse pointer keeps showing).
How do I determine which control the user is currently modifying on a multipage form (either changing, enterying or exiting the specific control). when I use "userform1.activecontrol" i get "multipage1" as the control name but I need the actual control on the specific active multipage. (also the .TABINDEX is for the multipage regardless of the on-page control) I use a generic data-field change SUBroutine so need the control name (and the TABINDEX) to provide my SELECT CASE. (so every fieldname_CHANGE calls the same SUB [with no parameters])
