I am looking to fill out a combobox (say combobox1) in a userform from a set of ranges located in a different workbook (that is in a different location).
For example, the cells that would need to be in the combobox are B5:B41,D5:D40 and F5:F45 and the file location is W:WCWORKCENTERS.xls
I'm trying to link combo box's on a user form to a hidden workbook. I placed the workbook into
C:Users[User Name]AppDataRoamingMicrosoftExcelXLSTART
Then hide the worksheet which essentially hides the workbook as only 1 sheet is present in workbook. This should make the workbook available every time a user opens Excel
Now when i initialize the form i get an error
Run-time error '1004': Method 'Range' of object'_Global failed
However when i unhide the worksheet the form runs fine. Do i need to declare the combo boxes differently than shown below The range "Tools" does exist on the hidden workbook.
I found this thread which deal with populating unique values in my listbox.
Here is the thread link. [URL] ........
What these line of code mean (the ones in red).
Code:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim v, e
With Sheets("maintenance").Range("c2:c500")
v = .Value
End With
With CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")
[Code] ......
Note : I simple tried to check the value of v by giving msgbox (v), just below the line v = .Value.
But I got run-time error 13 : Type mismatch error.
what VBA is required to have a combo box in a userform look up data in a different workbook, then populate that data into the drop down list of that combo box for a user to select.
I have managed to successfully create a vlookup for a combo box in a userform that looks up data in a named range in another worksheet within the same workbook and then populate that data into a field in a worksheet within the same workbook. However, I want to change this so the combo box on a userform (in one workbook) will look up data from a named range in a second workbook without opening the second workbook. At the moment, the code I have that will 'submit' the user selected data from the combo box drop down list works.
The code that has worked so far to vlookup data for the combo box from a worksheet within the same workbook is:
Code:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim pName As Range
Dim ws As WorksheetSet ws = Worksheets("vlookupsheet")
For Each pName In ws.Range("ProjectName")
With Me.cboProjectName
.AddItem pName.Value
End WithNext pName
Me.cboProjectName.SetFocus
End Sub
Do I need specify the file path of the second workbook that will contain the data for the combo box as well as the name of the worksheet and named range in that second workbook?
I want it to populate a combobox in a userform. Should it go in the code segment for the userform, in a module, or some other place? The following is code I originally found (by Leith Ross of this board) to find the last row in column "A", and load the combo box "ComboBox1"
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to populate (via VBA) a textbox/combo box from one user form to another user form.
The first user form has a room number in a text box1. If certain conditions exists, a button is selected to bring up another user form (both forms are modeless).
I want to pass/populate some of the 1st user Form info into the other user form.
I have tried the on initialize textbox1.value = textbox other.value but no dice. I can populate a user form text box from a spreadsheet but from box to box in separate user forms has me a little stumped.
I need to populate the textBoxes from the selection from ComboBox I've created in a UserForm. I have attached the file that I was working on. I want to be able to keep selecting then populate the text box until I have finsihed.
View 2 Replies View Relatedhow can I build a userform to display all values from a row? in order to select a row, i was thinking to use a combobox to display values from one column and based on that selection, display all values in that row? the reason i want to use a userform is because i would also like to be able to edit that data.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a userform which inputs data based upon a chosen item from a combobox. Combobox3 pulls numerical items from Rows17 and below in columnA of active worksheet. The first problem I am having is that the combobox itself is cutting numerical numbers short. Items go out to the thousandths (ex. 1.001) but in cases where there is a "0" at the end of the decimal it abbreviates it (ex.1.01) is there anyway to fix this? The second issue is I would like to populate "Textbox4" with the columnC content of the item chosen. (Ex. User choses Item 1.001 (found in row118) then Textbox4 would = the value of C18) Below is the current code utilized for this userform.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI need to populate a combo box on a form with the column name (A,B,C...etc) and the first row data. I need the code to check all columns in-case of missing column data.
Its important to note the data will be dynamic. In my add in, a form opens on requests and asks the user which column he needs to action data on. this could be on any one of several non similar spreadsheets.
E.G.: Combox to hold the following data (see column D has no data or header row):
Column A - Date
Column B - Rep
Column C - Customer
Column D -
Column E - Product
How can i pass this info to the form ?
Ive got 12 sheets, one for each month, and I've got a combobox in each sheet, and Ive got a macro for each combobox, that makes it jump to the correct sheet number. The problem is that when I try to populate the comboboxes under the workbook_open() sub, it doesnt work.
Tried
Code:
Private Sub workbook_open()
ComboMaaned.List = Array("Januar", "Februar", "Mars", "April", "Mai", "Juni", "Juli", "August", _
"September", "Oktober", "November", "Desember")
End Sub
tried with
Code:
Sheets("Sheet1").select
and
Code:
Sheets("Sheet1").ComboMaaned.list = Array ...
Seems to crash every time.

I have a userform (named "QAReviewForm") with a combobox (named "cboSupName"). I want it to populate with my named range "SupList".
FYI, the SupList is found on sheet 2, "Administrative Menu" in column E. E1 contains the heading "Supervisors", and my named range formula is
Formula:
[Code ] .....
When it runs, my form opens and the combobox is there, but nothing appears as options for me to select (yes, I have some values in column E).
I have a userform (uf_PaxInput) with a Combobox (cmb_flight_dest) which I am trying to populate from a worksheet range ("Dest") using the following code:
VB:
Sub LoadForm()
With uf_PaxInput.cmb_flight_dest
For Each Item In Range("Dest")
.AddItem
Next Item
End With
uf_PaxInput.Show
End Sub
The code seems to run okay however whent the form loads the combobox drops down to show only blank items to select. These blank items number them same number of items that are in my named range ("Dest").
All I want to do is
put a combo box on a spreadsheet,
have it populated, and sorted - ideally, alphabetically with range names already created.
And
I'd like to be able to click on the Range Name and GoTo the location.
I use
Set rnData = ActiveSheet. Range("ProductList")
vaData = rnData.Value
With Me.model
.Clear
.List = vaData
.ListIndex = -1
End With
to populate a combobox list. 'ProductList' is a Dynamic Named Range with the definition
=OFFSET(Stock_List!$L$2,0,0, COUNTA(Stock_List!$L:$L)-1,1)
The '-1' allows for a heading at the top of the column.
This works fine when the list in col. L has more than one entry under the heading. But with only one entry I get 'Runtime error 381 - Could not set the List property, Invalid property array index' and the debug highlights on
.list=vaData
I would like to populate a combobox with text from two different ranges:
I have an ID No in column A (range = ID)
and a descripton in Column B (range = Description)
I would like the following to appear in the combobox:
"J.034 Kitchen Bench"
at the moment I can only get J.034 from the following
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim cBase As Range
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Worksheets("Matdata")
For Each cBase In ws.Range("ID")
With Me.cboBase
.AddItem cBase.Value
.List(.ListCount - 1, 1) = cBase.Offset(0, 1).Value
End With
Next cBase
Me.cboBase.SetFocus
HideTitleBar Me
End Sub
I've done define name to read column C until G in 1st row, N define another name from column C until G in 2nd row.For example; NameRanges for "Year" =OFFSET(Sheet2!$C$1,0,0,1,COUNTA(Sheet2!$1:$1)-2), for
"Thickness" = OFFSET(Sheet2!$C$2,0,0,1,COUNTA(Sheet2!$2:$2)-3)
I want to display list of year in combobox and then, when the user click on the first item in combobox, the textbox will display the value that correspond to the combobox. For example; when the user click Year = 1990 in the combobox, the textbox will take value from excel and display thickness for year 1990 which is 4.
This is my code, the code in UserForm_Initialize is working. unfortunately, coding to display value in TextBox1, doesnt work.
VB:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim rngYear As Range [code].....
I would like to know how to automatically populate a combobox with the data in a certain range. Attached is a simple workbook with the example. I know how to do this with the additem. But I dont know how to create the array or userform initialize to populate the combobox with the range.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a combobox on a spreadsheet it is populated on a sheet called teams :

I'm trying to get some vba to automatically find the range of data in a spreadsheet (So start from a specified point and loop until it's blank) and populate a combobox with this range accordingly. I have read numerous articles and posts but nothing seems to work!!
I am using Excel 2007.
Sheets("Sheet1").Shapes("ComboBox1").Select
Selection.ListFillRange = "='Sheet1'!$b$15:" & comborange & ""
where comborange = cell reference of the last cell in my range..
I have moved this combo box to a userform now and I'm trying to populate the box via one of the userforms triggers.. My problem is I can't figure out the syntax to select the combobox on the userform.. it doesn't seem to be handled the same way as when it was on the worksheet..
I have a few questions here.
1) Can a userform procedure be place in the midst a larger macro, so that it can get input from the user before running the rest of the macro? ie If the user leave the input field blank, the macro will exit will a msgbox.
2) I have a range(A1:A3) that i want my userform to display. This range is dynamic. The user will require to input the corresponding country next to it. how do i code the this? I will need to use a listboxes and textboxes right?
for example: userform shows city on the left, user will need to input the country on the right.
A1 - California (user input on the right)
A2 - Shanghai (user input on the right)
A3 - Mumbai (user input on the right)
I have 3 name range in a control sheet ("Control")
Namerange Cat1, Cat2, Cat3. All of the name range are different. I am trying to cut down on my Userform that have each a userform with combobox selection.
Frmcat1, frmcat2 frmcat3.
I need to simplify my life. I need that if the user selects anything between F5:F20 to generate the userform and select range Cat1. If the user Select G5:G20 then to generate Cat2 and so on...
So on userform Initialize look if the user is in Column F, is yes then Cat1. If user in Col. G then Cat2 and final if user is in Col H to have Cat3 generate in the combobox.
I have created a User form with Combobox's, which in turn look up cell references in another sheet. In order to make maintainence of the combobox's as easy as possible I'd like the look up as many cells as possible, therefore anyone can easily add additional text to go into the user forms. However I don't want the blank spaces to show until something has been added.
View 9 Replies View RelatedHow can I fill a UserForm ComboBox or ListBox with cells from a dynamic changing range?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to populate two combo boxes from excel sheet, the data will be like below:
Column A Column B
A 1
A 2
A 3
A 4
A 5
B 100
B 101
B 102
So from the above data, one combo box should hold unique values A & B.
On selecting a value from the 1st combo box A or B, respective values should be populated in 2nd combo box.
So the data should be like below:
If A is selected in the 1st combo box, then 2nd combo box should only show the values 1,2,3,4 & 5.
If B is selected in the 1st combo box, then 2nd combo box should only show the values 100,101 & 102.
Friends I need it in a macro and one important point is, this is dynamic and it is not static and the data can be more.
I have a table, headers "FirstName" and "SurName".
Further a Userform with 2 Comboboxes "FirstName" and "SurName"
I'd like to choose the FirstName (say Jack) in the "FirstName" combobox, and based on that get the choice of the Surnames of all my Jacks in the "SurName" combobox.
Actually my sheet has much more fields and comboboxes, but i think my problem is just that I do not find a way to populate them dynamically.
I'm trying to add a dynamic named range to a combo box in Userform but getting this error.
Have tried several lines of code this being the last that hasn't worked . . . .
Code:
CustCBx.RowSource = Range("CustList").Value
This is the formula for the named range in sheet
Code:
='Customer Info'!$J$2:INDEX('Customer Info'!$J2:$J200,COUNTA('Customer Info'!$J2:$J200))
I have a worksheet with following values:
A
B
C
1
Shorts
75
[Code]...
Also I have a Userform with 2 ComboBoxes named "ComboBox1" and "ComboBox2". Values in ComboBox1 is "Pull my pants", "Eat my shorts", "Socks for everyone".
What I would like to do is to search though column A and look for any of these textstrings in my selection in ComboBox1 and return the value from column B in column C.
Example: "Pull my pants" is selected in ComboBox1 then the value "pants" should be found in column A and value in column B (25) should be entered in cell C2.
I am fairly new to VBA and have spend hours searching Google and found some formulas like InStr and VLookup. My problem is that I am not sure if these statements will do the job and how to combine them.
