ActiveX Option Button On Click Formatting?

Feb 26, 2013

I'm running into an issue with my ActiveX Option Buttons where they change appearance on click, rendering my transparent settings moot.

Here is an example of the process flow where a user decides to select 'New Visits' instead of 'All Visits':

Before click
before_zps37d416b4.png

After click
after_zps0e12e3e6.png

Here are the properties of the buttons:

Is it possible to avoid this scenario?

How To Remove Delete Option When Right Click On Sheet Tab

Jun 21, 2014

When right clicking on the sheet tab, I need to know if it is possible to remove the "Delete" from being an option. My workbook is structured to where if a single sheet is deleted, it screws up all my formulas. I tried to just password protect the workbook, but doing that removes the "Rename" function, which I still need.

Toggle Data Validated Option On / Off Within With Right-click?

Aug 2, 2014

This area of my worksheet, Sheets("ACTIVITY").Range("AM2:AM172"), is currently populated by text values from a dynamic, validated list, 'DEL_2'.

Is there a simple way to effectively 'toggle' (on/off) data validation - maybe with right-click - in this area, so that the user can type what they want if their chosen option can't be found in DEL_2?

Insert Comment Using VBA By Finding Data

Feb 3, 2014

The list of data is shown in sheet1

In sheet2 I have shown the data that is copied

I have manually shown comments on 2 cells in sheet2 that shows detailed description on how was the total taken.

I need the comment on all the cells from D8 to G11 (not taking the total column) that shows on how was the total taken.
When any entry in sheet1 is inserted or deleted the comment in sheet2 should change accordingly.

I also do not want to freeze the cells D8:G11 as when new entries are made or deleted the columns would increase or decrease.

All blank cells I do not need any comment.

Insert A Comment Based On The Value Of A Cell

Jan 18, 2010

I have data validation and conditional formatting set for my sheets. However, I cannot figure out something.

I want a "comment" box (just as if I would click on "add comment") to pop up automatically if the user enters a certain value in a cell.

For example, if cell C4="1" then no further action is required. If cell C4=anything other than "1", then the user would be required to enter a comment. I would also like the comment to autopopulate with the users login id.

I will attach the book I am working on for reference, but I do not have any code written for this as I could not figure out where to start.

Auto Insert Comment Based On Value Entered

Dec 7, 2009

Is there a way to auto insert a cell Comment when a particular value is entered and then have the Comment copied to a cell in another worksheet in the same workbook?

The value entered into the cells i want this function to work with is from a Validation list. If the cell's value was to change, for instance the user going back to a cell to change the value for whatever reason, I would like the previous comments to remain and then give the user the choice to edit comment or not.

I've had a look in the Forums using search but nothing close seems to be forthcoming.

Insert Comment Into Userform Upon Entering A Textbox?

Jan 17, 2012

I have a user-form with around 10 text-boxes. Each one of them has labels.

I was wondering if there was any way to add a function similar to the "insert-> comment" available in excel? So that there would be a tiny marker and when the mouse hoovered over it, some text in a comment bubble would be revealed? Or even better that somehow using VBA that each time you enter a text-box a comment would temporarily appear?

For a variety of reasons I can't just add labels with this info. This info would be instructions on what sort of data you should add to the field, and the instructions in some cases will be quite long and the user-form is too big as it is.

Insert Pic Into Comment For Every Cell That Has Text Containing String .jpg Or .png

May 10, 2009

I need a nudge in the right direction with how to amend the below code so that it :
1: cycles though all cells in a workbook, and sees whether the text reference of the cell contains a picture filename (i.e. searches for .png or .jpg in the cell contents)
3: if (1) is correct, it retrieves the picture from "C:/Users/jeff/Documents/Standards/" and pastes it as a cell comment background in the cell to the right (and overwrites any comment backgrounds that might already exist there)

The code below does something a bit different: it looks in a defined range, then adds a comment with a background picture retrieved based on the text in the cell to the left.

I'm sure this is a pretty basic change, but my VBA skills aren't up to it...I've only just started reading though Walkenbach's Power Programming! I'm using Excel 2007

Sub InsertComment()
'www.contextures.comxlcomments03.html
Dim rngList As Range
Dim c As Range
Dim cmt As Comment
Dim strPic As String

On Error Resume Next

Set rngList = Range("A1:A5")
strPic = "C:/Users/jeff/Documents/Standards/"
On Error Resume Next
For Each c In rngList
With c.Offset(0, 1)...................

Use Excel VBA To Find Values In Table And Insert In To A Comment?

Jul 5, 2012

I have a table refreshed from a MySQL database that I use to create a report. I can use this data quite well using formulas in the cells.But in order for me to add more information to the report I use without making it cluttered I need to add some data as comments.

I have created a loop that picks up some cell values that I want to use as criteria but I cant work out how to use these variables to search through the table and get the info I require to put in the comment. In a cell I would use offset/match or index/match to get the required cell value but how do I do this in VBA?

Protecting Cells So That Password Is Required Only To Insert Comment

Dec 3, 2013

I've found many resources that tell me how to allow for the insertion/editing of comments within a protected worksheet. When I protect the worksheet, I can select "Edit objects" to allow anyone to insert comments.

However, my issue is that I'd like the Insert/Edit comment functionality to require a password, and this happens to be the opposite of what those resources instruct. I also want the content in those same cells to be editable by anyone.

Macro To Make Insert Comment Window Appear Automatically

Sep 11, 2007

I have created an attendance tracker for a team of people at work. It simply involves a grid of the days of the month and on each 'day' (or cell) I have set up the Validation command to prompt the the user to select whether they were at work, on holiday, off sick etc. etc from a drop down box. If they do not change the cell, its defaulted value is that they are in work.

When a user selects the days that they are planning a holiday in the future, they are meant to write a comment on the cells they have changed, to advise when they had 'requested' the holiday.

What I would like is (a macro?) which makes the comment box automatically 'pop up' when they change a cell from its default value prompting them to fill in the details rather than relying on them to 'add comments' manually.

In addition, what would be the best way to 'restrict' them from booking holiday within the next 7 days - we have a problem with people booking holiday on 'lastminute.com' for 2 days time, booking off the holiday on the spreadsheet and saying that they had it planned for weeks!

How To Insert Value Into Cell If Option Button Selected

Mar 9, 2012

What I am trying to accomplish is the ability to insert a value into a cell if an option button is selected. If the option button is not selected I want there to be a different value in the cell. This is what I have so far:

Sub OptionButton2_Click() Range("F8").Value = "$299" End Sub

What I am having issues with is the "else" clause. I want the value to show $0 if the option button is not selected. I attached a screen shot for reference.

Excel 2010 :: Unable To Right Click For Format Cells - Insert Or Delete

Sep 27, 2011

Just recently My Excel 2010 has decided to not let me right click to format cells, delete or insert rows. I can do these functions from the ribbon, but not via right click. this happens in both existing spreadsheets where I am the author, or even a brand new spreadsheet like in the image below. we have restarted the computer, Uninstall and reinstalled Office and still get same symptoms. I got here thru google but cannot find an answer anywhere.

I am very computer literate and even our IT personnel have looked at this with no answer. as you can see in the image, these options are greyed out.

Excel 2010 :: Access Data Connection Query - Missing Data All Of Sudden

Oct 19, 2012

I created a slick little excel sheet with the data coming in automatically via Access query. It has been working fine for months. Now all of the sudden there are a bunch of cells with missing data. The weird part is it's not as if whole columns are missing data, more like 90% missing. When I go to Access and run the query all cells are populated as the should be. There have been no changes to the query at all during this time.

btw...I am running Office 2010

Copy Contents Of Multiple Comment Boxes And Paste In Single Comment Box

Mar 13, 2014

how to copy the contents of multiple comment boxes and paste in a single comment box.

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.

Excel 2013 :: CF With 2 Option Buttons / Multiple Option Groups?

Sep 6, 2013

I have several option groups (Y & N in each) linked to cells to display TRUE / FALSE depending on which option is selected in each group. I have another cell which I want to apply conditional formatting to if EITHER Y or N is selected in all groups. At present I use COUNTIF to check for FALSE=0 in the linked cells which works if all the answers are Y. How do I apply CF if there is a mixture of Y & N (TRUE / FALSE) in all groups (I'm not sure if I've explained that well or not).
