Run Macros Automatically Based On Drop-Down Value
Aug 30, 2007
I have this simple code which runs a macro from a dropdown list.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then
If Target = "RunMacro1" Then
Macro1
End If
End If
End Sub
Im trying to add this second dropdown list.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$A$2" Then
If Target = "RunMacro2" Then
Macro2
End If
End If
End Sub
Can't seem to add a second Worksheet_Change event, nor include the second code within my first.

Here is what I'm trying to do:
I have 4 sheets:
1 called main
1 called states
1 called counties
1 called people
On "main" I have 1 drop down box and 1 cell:
the drop down lists the states from "states" sheet
the cell, which i would like to have as a drop down is supposed to be listing the counties in the state selected from the 1st drop down. right now it is setting the value to TRUE for testing purposes.
then when the county is selected, it will display the people in that county listed in "people". So far I can only get the 1st drop down to list the states. that's the easy part. i need to getting the counties to list in another drop down based on what state is selected.

Im a fairly basic VBA user who has just purchased the code for J-Walk's Enhanced Data Form.
On other threads in this forum I have noticed a lot of people asking how to make the contents of one drop-down box dependant on the selection in another. I am trying to do the same thing but with the criteria section of the EDF form.
Is this possible? What does give me hope is that a simple Autofilter - whilst not as aesthetically pleasing, does the job well.

Currently I have columns fixed or assigned to the names of insurance providers/companies.
In each column below the name of the Insurance Company, a combobox containing the plans that company offers. Choose a plan, and the rest of the column is filled in using vlookup.
Now to save space, IE opposed to having 13-15 columns one assigned to each Insurance Company/Provider. I am looking to have only 3-5 columns with a first initial combobox in which one chooses the Name of the Company/Provider, and in turn populate the original combobox and vlookup functionality I already have built in.
Here is an example of what I am working with.

I'm trying to create a drop down list which returns values based on what has been selected in the previous drop down list in the adjacent cell, e.g. if 'Apples' is selected in the previous cell then you should only be able to select from 'Gala, Granny Smith', or if 'Oranges' is selected you should only be able to select 'Seville, Blood Orange'. Is there a formula which would do this, or can I use a pivot table somehow? I'm totally stumped.

What I do know is how to set up a task in Task Scheduler and I have it set to open my Excel file: Workbook1.xlsm. This task is set to run at 7am each morning. Workbook1.xlsm has a bunch of different macros in it.
What I'd like to do is to have each of those macros to run automatically when the file is automatically opened by Task Scheduler.

I have been trying to think of a way to get a hierarchy chart automatically with given data through macros
In the attached excel sheet
Org. Charts (hierarchy) question.xlsm
Would it be possible to get the chart to do by itself if say I were to add items or remove items? Is there any way to do it for data automatically?
I extract the data from primavera as attached and I want to make the chart in excel automatically.

In my program I have data coming from an outside workbook. The amount of data coming into my program changes (Additional Rows) could be more or less. What I want is for the macro to recogize the change in data size and copy the new amount automatically. ie Change copy range. I would post the program but it is proprietary.

I have inserted the sheet. As you can see in Sheet 1 I have the Store, Address, Town etc, I would like a drop down box in D13 ( Store Name ) so when I select a store it will automatically fill all the info into D15:D19 Address, Town etc. The info will be pulled from Sheet 2.

I am looking to have the Cells that I have applied a Dropdown List to update with the changes that I make to the list itself.
Example:
If I were to validate a list with a range of a1:a3 using "Bob" "Sarah" "Bill" and then apply that list to B:B and randomly select from the three names running the length of B:B, I would want that when I go back to A2 and change "Sarah" to "Linda" that every "Sarah" that I have selected using the drop down will update to say "Linda"
I hope that I am explaining myself clearly and in a simple context.

I'm building a Excel 2003 workbook that needs more than 3 conditional formats. I've tried the code given in the FAQ: Get Around Excels 3 Criteria Limit in Conditional Formatting but this only works on cells being modified directly. I've also tried the code in the post: VBA Conditional Formatting - Refresh when data changes but neither does the job I need.
I'm using a Format Control to present the user with a list of choices. When the control changes the target cell I want to apply a conditional format to that cell. This image shows the form. When the Format Control selection (in B2) is changed I want to apply conditional formating to the target cell (A2).
There will be up to 10 choices and therefore conditions.

I am using a macro that automatically updates data obtained through a DDE link at 5 second intervals. My code is based off of the article "Automatically Run Macros at a Set Time or Date" found on the Ozgrid FAQs found here: http://www.ozgrid.com/Excel/run-macro-on-time.htm
However, I have this macro execute when I activate a Form Button, not when the workbook opens. So far, this macro works perfectly, and I have no problems. Although, I'd also like to include a Form button to STOP the macro from automatically running if the user chose to do so. How exactly would I go about making this STOP button?

I have three lists in the first sheet 'Food', 'Quantity', 'Points Value'
Each food (i.e. tuna, pasta, anchovies) has a quantity (i.e. 40g) and a points value (i.e. '50'). The first list ('Food') has been copied as a drop down list in the second sheet. When selecting a food, I would like the cells 'quantity' and 'points value' to pre-fill - taking the data from the first sheet.
i.e. if say Anchovies has the quantity value '30g' and Points Value '2' on the first sheet, then in the second sheet if anchovies was selected from the drop-down menu, these values would add themselves. how to do this? I have attached a sample file shwoing what I want to do.

I have two worksheets...
Sheet 1
A1: description
A2: Target Iteration
A3: Concat A1, A2.
Sheet 2.
A1: Drop down datavalidation list selected from A3, sheet 1.
On sheet 2, a user can select from the list. If a user changes the value in A2, sheet 1, I want the value that is associated and already selected in A1, sheet 2 to automatically update. There is a 1 to many relationship with the concat and the drop down. In that, sheet 2 can have multiple rows with the same value from sheet 1 A3. Is there a way when A3 sheet 1 changes, to search in A:A in sheet two and update the values for those records that match the original value in A3, sheet 1?

I am kind of new to Excel programming and would like to know if there is a solution to my problem. What I need is to have a dropdown list (I know how to make this) then select an item from the drop down, then based on the name i select, Excel automatically fill up the rest of the cells.
For example, from the drop down list I select the company name then Excel automatically type the address, phone number, Fax number and the contact name of the company for me in corresponding cells. Is there a way to do this?

I am trying to create a macro based on value in a cell. For example if J2 is greater than 1 then run macro A. The code I have is:
If j2 > 1 then
Call MacroA
The file imported as a text tab deliminated file and I believe that even though J2 might be 10.05, it does show up in the formula bar as just 10.05 not =10.05. I don't if this makes a difference. The J2 cell could either bland or values ranging from 1 to 100. If it is blank I want to run a different macro.

I created a drop down box with 3 options. Yes, No, and N/A. I want to subtract from a fixed number (8) a certain amount based on the answer. Something like if yes then subtract 1 from 8 and have the final number (7) appear in another cell.
screenshot attached.

What I want to do is lets say in the drop down menu I have options Food, sports, Movies. now if I select Sports then it should give me a sub caterory options like baseball, hockey, football and not the options for food & movies as well - so as to make the choices lesser and more user friendly. How do I create that - is it too tough - I am a novice in excel. Can you upload an example sheet with tips on how you did it. I have uploaded an example.

I have a dashboard that uses three pivots based off of a single data source. Each of the pivots is designed to work off of their own drop down list.
the first drop down list allows the user to select a lease date. The associated pivot will update with all servers assocated with that lease date.
the second drop down list allows the user to select a server. This list is limited by the lease date selected in the first drop down. The associated pivot will update with the partition information for the server selected in the drop down.
the third drop down list allows the user to select a partition. This list is limited by the server selected in the second drop down. The associated pivot will update with the detailed partition data for the partition selected in the drop down.
All of the above works, the issue is that when a new lease date is selected in the first drop down list, the current entries for the second and third drop down list are still reflecting the old lease date information. When you click the drop down the correct data is there, it is just not automatically populated.
Is there a way that when the user selects a new lease date in drop down one, the first server in the new list is automatically populated in the second drop down as well as the first partition in the third drop down?

I have zero understanding of how to do VB. I am trying to create a risk assessment template where I have a ton of questions to which I want a column E impact drop-down selection of N/A, High, Medium, Low; a column F probability rating of the same. This SHOULD a result in the subsequent two columns result based on those selections.
For example, Column E selected as High and Column F selected as High should make Column G automatically display High and, ultimately, column H to display 100.
Here is where I am at for trying to get Column G's result though all I seem to be getting is a FALSE response to each state instead of the intended result.
=CONCATENATE(IF(E11="High"&F11="High","High"),IF(E11="High"&F11="Medium","Medium"),IF(E11="High"&F11="Low","Low"),IF(E11="Medium"&F11="High","Medium"),IF(E11="Medium"&F11="Medium","Medium"),IF(E11="Medium"&F11="Low","Low"),IF(E11="Low"&F11="High","Low"),IF(E11="Low"&F11="Medium","Low"),IF(E11="Low"&F11="Low","Low"),IF(E11="N/A"&F11="High","N/A"),IF(E11="N/A"&F11="Medium","N/A"),IF(E11="N/A"&F11="Low","N/A"),IF(E11="High"&F11="N/A","N/A"),IF(E11="Medium"&F11="N/A","N/A"),IF(E11="Low"&F11="N/A","N/A"),IF(E11="N/A"&F11="N/A","N/A"))

What I need to do is create a Drop Down box. When a user makes their selection it gives another drop down box from what they selected. Each choice in the 1st drop down will give a different drop down box in the next field from what they selected in the 1st. I am having troubles getting this to work.

How do I change the color of a row, based on the users selection from a drop down box in that row? I have four driving types in my drop down , Towing - Town Driving - All highway - Mixed. I would like each driving type, if selected, to change the color of the entire Row of Data to a different color. I have been able to use conditional formating to change the drop down cell itself, but that is it.
