I am trying to find a method of adding a combo box and populate it that works for Excel 2000, 2003 and 2007. The following works for Excel 2007 but did not work on a machine installed with Excel 2003.
With Sheets("Tasks").ComboBox1
.AddItem "By Task Number"
.AddItem "By Date Task Assigned"
.AddItem "By Date Due for Completion"
.AddItem "By Status"
.AddItem "By Status and Date Due for Completion"
End With
I have a combo box in a report that currently updates using this code.
Sub popcombo_Initialize()
With Sheet1.ComboBox1
.AddItem "Budget Card"
.AddItem "Car Insurance"
.AddItem "Charge Card"
.AddItem "Credit Card"
.AddItem "FRS"
.AddItem "Home Insurance"
.AddItem "ISA"
.AddItem "Life"
.AddItem "Other"
.AddItem "Pension"
.AddItem "PEP"
.AddItem "Personal Loan"
.AddItem "Personal Reserve"
.AddItem "Pet Insurance"
.AddItem "Savings Protection Plan"
.AddItem "Travel Insurance"
.AddItem "Travel Money"
.AddItem "Unit Trust"
.AddItem "Wedding Insurance"
End With
End Sub
But some items on this list are missing from month to month and don't need to be included for selection so I need a more advanced version of this that populates from a list in data.
Is there a way for it to look at a column in a data range containing month, then look at the column containing Product and take a definitive list of all products that match a certain month?? So Credit card might be mentioned 300 times for the month of september but it appears only once in the combobox?
I tried moving it to a standard module and it will no longer work tells me invalid use of Me. How can I populate these two combo boxes at start up?

I need to poulate a combo box with the column headings, so that I can choose which column to sort on first, second etc. Now I am a complete beginner at this sort of thing, but I believe that ranges are required. I have tried using rowsource properties, but the combo box only ever displays one column heading.

View 4 Replies View Related(EXCEL 2003)I have 6 worksheets for 6 separate ad reps that will be populated with customer info. To make my life simple I just want column A from each of the 6 worksheets to show up on a master sheet in column A. But what also needs to happen is if we add and delete customers that also needs to happen on the master. I understand the "=" and then pointing to a cell in another sheet and hitting enter. I got that to work but I just have soooo many cells to work with that would just be way too time consuming.

It seems Excel will only evaluate the first statement and ignore the Or statement, meaning when H5 is blank Halifax is checked off when I load the user form.

I'm trying to populate a table based on two different criteria in a another table. On is based on a date and the other the number of a unit. I'm trying to get the data in sheets Week 1 and Week 2 into the format in sheet Example.

I have some schedules set up with multiple formulas and macros (originally setup in 2003) however when attempting to make this a 2007 file when I go to copy a sheet to create another schedule I get the message “A formula or sheet you want to move or copy contains the name “xx”, which already exists on the destination worksheet. Do you want to use this version of the name? To use the name as defined in the destination sheet, click yes. To rename the range referred to in the formula or worksheet, click no, and enter a new name in the Name Conflict dialog box.”

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've been putting together an automated spreadsheet that has external data sources to SQL. I have been having some strange problems with it between versions of Excel. Unfortunately, the company's standard is 2003 but quite a lot of the company use 2007. I have been developing this report on 2007, the server that runs the automated version of the spreadsheet runs 2003 (and cannot be upgraded beyond 2003 as it is running Server 2000!).
The template opens fine on my 2007 machine and all development work has been run on my machine including the downloading of data. The VBA script runs something like

My company used to have Excel 2003. I had a PivotTable in a worksheet that accessed data in another, completely different worksheet. When we converted to Excel 2007, I saved many of my Excel files from .xls to .xlsm. My PivotTable that once accessed data from another .xls file is still trying to access that same .xls file. What I want, though, is for it to access the new .xlsm file.

How can I re-work this for xl2007?

I'm struggling constantly with the Excel 2007 I use, and the Excel 2003 that another group uses.
I'm dealing with large files; 200000 to 300000 rows often.
I wish there was a setting or way to automatically force excel 2007 to create a file in 2003 format.....meaning I want 260000 rows to automatically be divided up into 4 sheets limited to 65K each. 260001 rows would be put into 5 sheets, so that I could save it as an excel 2003 file.
Is there also a way to do this from access 2007 exported to excel?(I know that's an access question and probably outside the bounds of this board).

I have run into a brick wall with InStr, Replace, and Len. I take the data from the active cell (formatted as text). I need to cleanup the data and do further massaging of it. In testing cleanup code, I get behavoirs and results I simply don't understand and can't figure out from hours searching forums many places.
The following simplified example commented code can be cut/pasted into a new spreadsheet module and should be self-explanatory. Example data is in the comments. Data is entered by multiple users and multiple sources. Therefore there is no control over the input quality so extraneous characters and multiple repeated periods and spaces can show up anywhere.
