I am building a tool that uses Pivot Tables (so I can't use track changes) and I have found cool code that will insert timestamp and username in the comment when a change occurs. But I need to modify the code to also take the old value and put it into the comment as well. Here is the code to register the change into the comment:

The big picture is that I have a number of cells with numerical values in and text in comment boxes. I want to be able to click a button to copy the contents of the comment boxes and paste them, along with the numerical value from the cell, into a single comment box, ordered by highest to lowest value within the comment box, then delete the original cells and comments.
I am quite new to VBA but have been coping quite well so far with information of the web and analysing recorded macros.
How do I pass values between procedures? I have two command buttons in the worksheet.
If I have a procedure A that asks user to input a value "x", when a command button is pressed.
Then another command button is pressed that passes the value onto another procedure B, which iterates a msgbox as many times as the number x,
How do I pass that value x from one procedure to another?
I'd like to know how to send a different value to a cell based on what is selected in the combobox. Like a vlookup, but from within the box.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've a userform (UserForm1) that on closing will open one of 5 other userforms. Which of the userforms that opens will be determined at runtime, depending on an option a user has previously selected. The name of the userform is held in a cell in a workbook and is opened as follows:
VBA.UserForms.Add(sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1")).Show

I have following code which identifies two worksheets, a source (wbSRC) and a destination (wbDEST). In the following code I am trying to get the values for wbsrc and wbdest to be written to the merged spreadhseet. But I am not sure how to go about this in VBA. The commented out approach does not work.
For Each rcell In wbList.Sheets(1). Range("A1"). CurrentRegion.Columns(1).Cells
Set wbDest = Workbooks.Open(rcell.Value)
Set wbSrc = Workbooks.Open(rcell(1, 2).Value)
wbSrc.Sheets(1).Range(copyAddress).Copy _ Destination:=wbDest.Sheets(1).Range(destAddress)
'wbDest.Sheets(1).Range("q3").Formula = "Workbooks.Open(rcell.Value)"
'wbDest.Sheets(1).Range("q4").Formula = "Workbooks.Open(rcell(1, 2).Value)"
I have the following code in 'ThisWorkbook':
VB:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Call Meetdata
End Sub
It calls this macro which is in a standard module:
VB:
Public firstvariablename As String
Public secondvariablename As String
Sub Meetdata()
regionname = InputBox("Enter the name of the Region.", "Region Name: North, South, East, West")
meetdate = InputBox("Enter the date of the Meet.", "Date of Meet")
End Sub
This set-up should make the variables available to all the other macros in the workbook. I have two other macros that need to use the values stored in these two variables that are entered into the two 'InputBox' statements. These two macros are in the same module and follow the 'Meetdata' sub. When I run the first macro, it recognizes the variables. When I run the second macro for some reason the variables are not recognized. To test the values returned by the variables, I placed the following code at the end of the first macro and again at the beginning of the second macro .
VB:
MsgBox(firstvariablename & " " & secondvariablename)
At the end of the first macro, the MsgBox returns the correct values stored in the variables which means that when the macro completes its run, the variables still hold their values. When I run the second macro with the MsgBox at the beginning, the Msgbox returns a blank. Somehow, the variables have been re-set to a null value. I can't figure out why the variables have been re-set to null. [URL]
I have created a few User Defined Types in a Main subroutine, but when I pass them into another sub the intelisense for the elements doesn't come up. I can type in the elements manually - and it all seems to work okay - but with a lot of types and elements I really want it to save me the effort.

I am trying to eliminate a lot of the global variables from my program by passing the variables to my functions and subs as arguments. I am stuck though when it comes to variables created in userforms.
The program starts with a series of userforms that asks the user for information that will be used throughout the rest of the program. Data is assigned to the variables on the click events. Is it possible, without using global variables, to pass those variables to the rest of the program?
Example:
I am using the following code to open a userform. Once the userform is open, the user has the option to choose a continue button or a cancel button. If the user is choosing continue, the code is not working (it always skips to the "else" portion of my "if" statement. I can't figure out why it is doing this.

I am familiar with the normal method of evaluating a variable and passing it to another macro using Call MacroX (var1, var2).

problems with the syntax involved in calling one subroutine from within another. I want to pass two variables calculated in a 'main' sub into the parentheses of another I am calling (see pseudocode below).
