I have a multiselect listbox in a worksheet that the user can select from. When the file is saved, closed and reopened, the user selections disappear. Is there a way of reloading the previous selections when the file is reopened? I have used the listbox from the control toolbox and have Excel 2003. My VB experience is very limited!!
View 8 RepliesI am currently setting up a userform where one of the options is for an error code (chosen from a listbox) but the user has to be able to select multiple codes. I have the below working if it is NOT multi select, works a dream and goes in the right column.
VB:
If ListBox2.Text = "A1" Then
LastRow.Offset(1, 20).Value = "x"
ElseIf ListBox2.Text = "A2" Then
LastRow.Offset(1, 21).Value = "x"
But as soon as I set it to mutliselect and choose say A1 and A2 neither one writes, I imagine because Listbox2.text is now A1,A2 and not just one or the other.
I have a multi selection listbox that has 6 columns located on the "Form" worksheet. Trying to extract the data from the selected lines (and all columns for the selected line) and copy to another worksheet (ExtractedData). My code so far only works to extract the multiple selections for the first column. Not sure how to have it include all columns. Ideally would like to have the six columns to be extracted and placed in separate cells on the ExtractedData worksheet. Here is what I have so far:
Sheets("Form").Select
SelCnt = 0
With Worksheets("Form").ListBox3
For i = 0 To .ListCount - 1
If .Selected(i) Then
SelCnt = SelCnt + 1

I have a listbox with 8 columns. Multiselect is enabled, and it must stay this way. As part of my program, after the user presses a command button, I need to use the row indexes of the selected rows in order to copy the selected information into an array which is then placed in a different listbox, and then delete the items from the original list. Pseudocode of what I want to do:
[Code] .....
But my understanding is that .ListIndex does not work this way with multiselect listboxes. I've tried searching for a solution for a while, but I cannot find one.
Ive made a worksheet with a userform and ListBox. The listbox is filled with names. If you click on the last button a msgbox with your selected names is displayed. If you select the button without a selection from the listbox a message pop ups to warn that no selection is made. If you select any name afterwards and click on the button the message still pops up unless you select the first entry from the list ("natalie") then the code is right executed. I'm struggeling with the code for several days. I wonder if by any change somebody wants to correct the code. (I've uploaded my sheet)

I have a mulit-extended listbox, a textbox and a button on a form.
I have populated the listbox with a list of files from a directory no problems.
First Part (Single Selection):
When I click on one/single filename in the list I want:
1. The textbox to be populated with the name I have selected
2. When I click the button (With the single filename selected, I want to call a function passing the filename I have selected.
The function could contain a msgbox(selecteditemname) for now.
Second Part (Multi Selection):
When I multi select filenames from the list I want:
1. The textbox to be populated with "Multiple Files Selected"
2. When I click the same button as before (With multiple filenames selected, I want to call a different function and pass each filename individually in may be a for loop)
The function could contain the loop and with each filename in the loop msgbox(selecteditemname)
I have tried the above and noticed that the listbox1.value property for multi listboxes dont seem to work and I am not really sure how to distinguish between one selection or multiselection to get a button to pass off to two separate functions.
I would like to add a combobox type control that will allow multiple selections. I know that the combobox in the MS Forms Object Library only allows single selections and that the list box is the way to go to allow multiple selections, but I am trying to keep the form as small as possible. I would like to add a control similar to the one used on pivot charts, where the user clicks the dropdown box and can select multiple items. I'm hoping this control is installed with MS Office and just needs a reference to it, but I am open to installing third party controls as well.
View 7 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to have some VBA in Sheet1:
1. That when a user click on a cell in a particular column within a specific sheet:
1.1 That they are presented with a multi select listbox (Showing 20 items stored in a column in Sheet2 )
1.2 And when the items are selected that the items are automatically written in the same cell that was clicked in Sheet1 with a new line break in between each item?

I am trying to create a data entry form with a text field and a listbox. The list box is populated by another sheet and the text box will be used to enter names. I need to be able to enter a new name, select multiple options from the list box and then click a button to add this info to a sheet in excel.
I have read about changing the list options to allow this etc - the problem is I can't get the results to go back into excel - all I get is a name with nothing from the listbox.
I am working on a macro, which asks the required field from multi select list box.
User can select required field, for example some user may be interested in
Region ID, Circle, BSC ID, Cell ID, Sector ID, City/Town.
Some user may be interested in Circle, BSC ID, Cell ID, Sector ID, City/Town.
Some user may be interested in BSC ID, Cell ID, Sector ID.
In sort, Selection on a multi select list box copy and paste that field from any folder.
That folder may have any location, and contains file which have.
Date
Vendor
Region ID
Circle
BSC ID
[Code] .....
changing two variables a various amount of times and running the same procedure and copying the resutls into another sheet. Seems like a perfect place for a macro. However, these variables can be chosen from a list that the user wants. So why not build in a listbox for each one. Now I have two listboxes one for variable A and one for variable B.
The procedure in theory goes something like this we change variable A from the base case and then run the procedure for variable B, get the results, then run the scenario again but changing only variable B abnd repeat. Then once, all of the variable B scenarios are done, I want to change the variable A and then repeat and so forth.
That is the background and my main problem at this point, is that have these values in two listboxes, I know how to do the for each loops and such, however, I do not know how to do them for values in the listbox.
How do I identify the values selected in the respective listboxes and then pull them so I only use them for the for each loop?
i'm having a problem with a script I have (script is below). What i'm doing is running a script that displays files in a certain folder, those files are then displayed on sheet1 column O and are linked so when they are clicked upon, the file will open. I also have a combo box with a input range of $O$O. That puts the values in column O in the combo box. Now here is a problem and request.
Problem first, when I select the file names from the combo box, they don't open the file, all it does is display the file name in combo box and that's it. how to I get it to open up the file? Now for a request, I have another sheet that is almost exactly as the one i described above. The only thing different I want is when someone clicks on a file name from the combo box, instead of it automatically linking to the file, I want them to click on a button to display the file.

ActiveSheet.Unprotect

I created a userform for budgets. Currently the way that the user selects the year for a particular line item is a combobox. The combobox is filled from a textbox, where the user inputs the project duration. For example if the user put five years into the textbox, the combobox would have years 1,2,3,4,5, and a default of all years. I want to change the combobox to a multi-selection List Box. I changed the sub that loads the current combobox to this:
Public Sub ComboLoad(cboExpense As ComboBox, cboJob As ComboBox, _
ltAp As MSForms. ListBox)
Dim i As Integer
ltAp.Clear
If Len(UserForm2.txtYears) = 0 Or Len(UserForm2.txtYears) = "" Then
ltAp.AddItem ("All Years")
Else
For i = 1 To UserForm2.txtYears
ltAp.AddItem i
Next i
ltAp.AddItem ("All Years")
End If
ltAp.Text = "All Years"
'ltAp.value = "All Years"
I used to be able to select a value for the combobox, (the default of all years), but I get an error if I include that part of the code now. I wanted to know how I can make this selection by code. Also, the bigger question for me is how do I deal with multiple selections that may or may not be sequential. As an example, for the travel section, there may be a particular expense that will occur in yrs. 1,3,5. I found some info about referring to the position in the array, but it seems like this will constantly change. I could imagine doing case scenarios, but it seems like there would be too many potential possibilities to cover.
I have a userform with multiple buttons and a listbox. When any button is clicked on, a listbox is created. The user selects various items on the listbox. Then the user clicks another button and selects other items based on a new list. If user goes back to click the original button, the original list shows up, but the selected items are not highlighted. Is there any way to keep those original selections highlighted (selected)?
View 9 Replies View RelatedOn a multiselect listbox, is there any way the user can select a "block" of selections, instead of having to select them one by one? The list box I have has about 100 choices and it would be possible to select blocks of choices at a time. This is similiar to MS Outlook email where you can push the shift key to isolate a block of emails to move to a different folder.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook with 3 listboxes: Listbox1, Listbox2 and Listbox3. Selecting an item in Listbox1 will query a database which populates a hidden worksheet. Listbox2 then populates itself by drawing on entries in the hidden worksheet. Selecting an item in Listbox2 populates Listbox3 in the same way.
At the moment I have the spreadsheet so that nothing is cleared when I close or open the workbook, allowing the listboxes to remember what they were populated with when I closed the workbook. However, the listboxes will not remember what was selected when I closed it. Is this something which I can easily fix with a listbox property? If not, what is the easiest way for each listbox to remember what was selected when I closed it?
I'm trying to see if it's possible to create a list box where I can select multiple values. For example, if a create a list box with the alues, "ant", "dog", and "cat". Is it possible for me to give the user the option to choose, "ant" and "cat"?

Here is what I'm trying to create: I've put a command button on my worksheet that pops up a user form with a list box, an "insert" command button, and a "close" command button. I want to allow a user to make multiple selections in the list box, click the "insert" button, and have the selections inserted into the worksheet at a specific cell and fill down. I'd also like for it to allow the user to re-open the user form and add to the list after closing it.
I've hap-hazardly set up the list box for multi-select, but I'd like to see how it's "supposed" to be done! Also, as it stands, my list box selections will populate any cell that happens to be active at the time the initial command button is clicked. I've searched this forum and found that folks have posted similar questions. Those who replied posted a link, which I tried to follow but the page that followed could not find the file.
I am attempting to put in some dropdown boxes and text boxes and maybe some other items using the control toolbox in Excel. After a selection is made I would like to count that particular item. I was using the validation method in which all I needed was the following to sum up the selections made: =SUMIF(G:G,"Monday",I:I)
Now I realize this will not work due to the fact the control toolbox controls are embeded and merley sit on the cells. How do I sum selections made using drop down boxes that are derived from the control toolbox? If someone can give me an example to try or point me to a place to find such information that would be great.
I have a MultiSelect Listbox with two columns of data and I want to enter the listbox row data into different cells of a sheet.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am writing a macro that allows a user to select which fields they would like to copy from over 100 workbooks.

I need to use the user selection to identify which columns to pull from all worksheets.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have been using VBA for 2 weeks and have run into a problem I can't find an answer to from searching various sites. I have a listbox with two columns (one name, one numbers). I have two buttons, one that puts the selections onto a sheet and then calculates the associated numbers and then updates a label with the sum of the selections. If they accept the selections, they can then press submit to record the data in the sheet. My problem is that after they press the calculate sum button the selections on the list dissapear, I need them to remain as they may need to change them based on the sum amount. How can I get the listbox to get the sum as necessary (and display within the userform), but not lose the selections in the process.
