Within a userform, I want to populate five combo boxes and with the values of 1 - 10. I looked through several excel websites and found several solutions. However, I could not figure out how to adopt their solutions to my specific case.
My naming convention for the combo boxes are: cmboPeriod1, cmboPeriod2, ... , cmboPeriod5.
[Code].........
I know my with statement is incorrect. I know the compiler will automatically think 'cmboPeriod' is a variable. I just don't know how to get it 'cmboPeriod & j' to do what I really intend for it to do.

I have a userform with a listbox that has 6 columns (D2:I50) which works great. In column J (J2:J50), I have data which needs wrapping so I plan on putting it in its own listbox. Is it possible to have another list box but one that operates as the first one is scrolled?

I am creating a userform with a listbox.
When I select multiple values from the listbox, how do I apply the selected set of values (user can select up to 10 out of 80) to a range of cells in a different sheet (in the same workbook), which cannot contain any blank cells?

I have a listbox (form control) on an excel sheet, where the user can select (or deselect) multiple entries.
Is there a way to have vba spit out which options are selected? if I choose "single" for selection type, it will tell me which option i have selected. Is there something similar for multiple?

How to put these multiple listboxes in my form that allow the end-user to make selections and then after they are done, click the submit button that queries the results. I have read so many books and nothing in the books works.
I created a query that includes all the fields in each of the listboxes. For example :
[Code] ....
This way each listbox and there are 11, has distinct values based on my qual_main table and it connects to whatever the other table is that contains the actual values I need to pull. The listboxes display correctly yet when I put the query in my button to run it based on what the end-user selected from the listboxes, it does nothing. I have tried several things and the last code I tried is as follows:

I'm trying to make two multi select listboxes in excel. I have tried I myself, but I know the excistence of VBA only since one week .
In sheet1 I have a number i.e. 50 in "A1" . First I want to make a list of this number, so cell "A2" = 1, "A3" = 2, .... "A51" = 50. This range has to be variable since the number can be 1 but als 100.
Then I want to populate ListBox1 in sheet2 with the list from sheet1. Next I want a second ListBox (ListBox2) and two buttons ("Add item" and "remove items") to move items from ListBox1 to ListBox2 and back.
Finally i want the selection that is made in ListBox2 to be put in sheet1 in a specific column (let's say C) where "C1" is the first selected item from ListBox2 "C2" the second and so on. This range has to be variabel since the number of selected items is not known.

I have a number of listboxes on a worksheet that I want to use to filter data on another worksheet.
I thought something like the following would work but I need the correct syntax and/or modifications to the method:
for each listbox in activesheet.listboxes
for each selection in listbox.selection
filter data accordingly on other sheet
next selection
next listbox

Any way to find out what list boxes are on the active sheet with vba? I have a massive file loaded with listboxes, some copied from other sheets. I am trying to copy the selected value from to the worksheets themselves. I can pull the selected item from the Cell Link's Index or the bound item, but only if I specify the listbox. There are 57 sheets and up to 6 listboxes on a sheet, Do I have to go through and give them all individual names, such as the sheetname_listboxname.

I have used a userform found on this forum (I cannot find the link) that displays row data from a range within a listbox. Unfortunately though you cannot determine the column width. As such I wondered if it was possible to show the data within other listboxes. So for example in listbox1 you can see 5 columns accross (from a range) however one of them is very wide.
Looking at Listbox1 you can only see the firsy 20 characters approximately in each column. Is it possible therefore that once this row of data is selected that the contents of the columns is duplicated in other listboxes on the same userform that can be expanded to accommodate larger text?

I am using a userform and i have added some data to listboxes but it comes as being too long when it is only one character. I checked in properties to change the settings and tried to change everything but it doesnt work.

I am trying to clear check boxes and list boxes on multiple worksheets within a workbook. Below is what I have,but doesn't work. Note: the "bottom " code does work to clear selected cells of their data. I tried to create a macro for the list boxes selecting "----" which I have as the last entry in the vlookup table but was totally unsuccessful at.
Sub cleardata()

I am designing a userform that involves a listbox that I am having trouble with. Please note I have little experience with vba, so I don't understand most codes.
I want to make a mulitcolumn listbox, populated with the attached pivot table. I really do not know where to start, and there is no "populating multicolumn listboxes for beginners" instructions anywhere on google or in here. At least, none that I understand.
What I am trying to create is a 2-column listbox, where in the first column, the "code" fields are shown, and in the second column, the corresponding " Name" fields are shown. In the pivot table, you can see how several routes fall under a service, and several services fall under a pc, etc.

see the attached below.
A few things to sort if I may
How do I get the listboxes to pre-populate based on the Userid and Option Button selection? Furthermore, write back to the correct cell once the selection has been made?
How can I get the combobox to remove blanks in the Userid? (if each cell in row2 has to be populated then so be it)

I have a fairly straightforward UserForm with 4 listboxes and 4 option textboxes (the textboxes do not need to be a part of the validation I'm needing). I then have a command button that I want to be enabled ONLY if ANY of the 4 Listboxes have a selection. I've tried the "Change" event code below and it works upon the first selection of any listbox item.
However, if the user de-selects all selections in the listboxes (i.e. they are all unchecked), the command button remains enabled. I need the validation logic to enable/disable the button to persist as long as the user has the form open and if there is not a selection in ANY of the listboxes. The reason being is that if they click the command button it will update the cells in the worksheet, which if empty may overwrite previous work completed with blank cells.

I would like to do is have 2 listboxes. In the first listbox I would like the name of all the worksheets which contain the words "elective class: " in cell C7.
In the second listbox I would like the name of all the worksheets which do not contain the words "elective class: " in C7. I need this only to source from worksheet 7 onwards however.
The listboxes are called ListBox1 and ListBox2 respectively.
Also I am using this to print and I have a button which currently selects all the data in the first listbox and another button which prints all the selected data. The code being used for this is:

I'm thinking of writing a small tool to store user information on certain files.
The user data will be input by means of comboboxes on a userform.
Each combobox will need to contain a list of values previously used for that combobox. (I'm planning to use a separate ini file for each combobox)
All of the user data entered for a file will be saved into a single ini file.
Most of this is straightforward however I'm not good with comboboxes. And working this in with Ini files makes it harder!
I'm struggling with the following concepts:
SOLVED - How do to make a combobox populate with all the values from its ini file
SOLVED - How to identify if a selected value in any combobox is new (i.e. wasn't in the original list presented to the user)
SOLVED - (From above) How to write this new value to that comboboxes ini file (so it will appear in future lists for that combobox)
How to input two values from any given combobox
(From above) How to record two values for one field into the files ini file.

I'm sure this must have been answered before but I cant find it, sorry.....
I have 12 comboboxes on a worksheet. They are normally filled out by typing the first 3 characters of one of the entries in the list they are populated with.
I.e. the list starts;
AAC - Al Arish - Egypt - HEAR
AAN - Al Ain - United Arab Emirates - OMAN
AAW - Abottabad - Pakistan -
The first 3 character are unique to each line.
I'd like to be able to enter the 3 characters in the first combobox & then tab to the 2nd combobox, etc, etc. No problem in a userform but how on earth do I do that when the comboboxes are on the worksheet?

I have two comboboxes on a userform, they both get there list from the same formula. What I am trying to do is have the second combobox have it's selection preset based on the selection in combobox 1.
ie
Combobox1 = 6:00 AM
when you click on the dropdown for combobox2 i would like 6:00 AM to be the first selection possible, but I dont want it displayed in the box unless it is selected.
Dim timdat1(1 To 85)
For i = 1 To 85
timdat1(i) = Format(TimeSerial(5, (i + 1) * 15, 0) - Int(TimeSerial(5, (i + 1) * 15, 0)), "h:mm AM/PM")
Next i
combobox1.List = timdat1
combobox2.List = timdat1
i am at a loss for where to go from here

I am using the following code to determine whether a given range is the linked cell for a Combo Box by looping through the shapes collection.
Function LocateFormControl(OverRange As Range) As Shape
Dim objTemp As Shape
For Each objTemp In OverRange.Parent.Shapes
If Left(objTemp.name, 6) = "Drop D" Then
If WorksheetFunction.Substitute(objTemp.ControlFormat.linkedcell, "$", "") = WorksheetFunction.Substitute(OverRange.Address, "$", "") Then
Set LocateFormControl = objTemp
Exit Function
End If
End If
Next
Set LocateFormControl = Nothing
End Function
However, when I use this code on big worksheets with many other shape objects (such as Comments), the program runs very slowly. Is there a ComboBoxes Collection that I could use to avoid looping through all shapes on the worksheet, or is there a different, faster way to run this code?

I totally understand how to make the combobox under form controls now but I am not having any success with the indirect function I was using as a list now that I have a combo box. I have attached the current form I am working on that just shows the list function still. How to convert this over to combo boxes with the indirect function?
I attached a second form with the feature I am asking about. It is just lacking the third list that I now have in place. (on the 1st attachment).

In one worksheet I have a large amount of data (around 300 columns and 1000 rows), growing bigger each day. This worksheet is called "datas_pH" and consists of column A with different categories, column B with different subcategories, and then the rest of the columns with the pH data.
In a different worksheet (called "database") I have 2 comboboxes where you should be able to select the categories and subcategories. For example, in the first combobox if you select A you should only be able to view and select 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. If you select B you should only be able to select 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. (I believe it may be called cascading comboboxes or something along those lines?).
Anyway, here's a code that works perfectly if the comboboxes and data are in the same data sheet:
Combo Box 1:
Code:
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change() Dim d1 As Object
Set d1 = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
i = 2 ' start at row 2
x = 1
rowValue = Cells(i, 1) ' set rowValue to the value of the first cell (top data row)
[Code] .....
How do I modify these codes so it will pick up data in the other worksheet ("datas_pH"). Combo Box 1 should pick up data from cells datas_pH!a:a, and Combo Box 2 should pick up from cells datas_pH!b:

I'm trying to fill some combo boxes on a userform with arrays stored as variant type (this is how I was told it's done). The problem is, I'm using exactly the same code in two subroutines and it works in one and not in the other. I have a button to reset the form and a subroutine that runs when the form is initialized. Here's the code for the reset button which works:
Code:
Private Sub Reset_Click()
App1Date = ""
App2Date = ""
App3Date = ""
App1Time.Clear
App2Time.Clear
App3Time.Clear
[code]....
At the moment I've got the 'Journeys' and 'TimeArray' declared as public variables for maximum scope, so that they can be used by both subroutines. But I've also tried declaring them localy in each subroutine and it still doesn't work! By using a breakpoint I can see that the line
Code:
carJourneysSaved.List = Journeys
is definitely running when I expect it to but the combo boxes remain blank unless I click reset!
