Search Function Using 2 Text Boxes?

May 22, 2014

I am wondering if the user can use 2 boxes to search and populate the record.

Ie./ Box 1= Vehicle Registration Box 2= Date

This sheet will be used throughout each month and each vehicle registration may have more than one record that month

So I need the user to be able to input the vehicle reg and for the form to populate the relevant record.

I current have a Unique reference which is a combo box that once you select it auto populate the record but this will take forever having to populate ach record to find which one the user is looking for.

Excel 2007 :: Search Box Function - Return Value / Text Not Location

May 15, 2014

I need code for a search box function, that returns the information recorded in a cell for example, "Barcelona" or "London" etc), instead of the location of the cells.

I will need to narrow it down to search only the information in the following columns:

Sheet2
I2:J10932

I am totally new to VBA coding and have stumbled my way through a few things, but everything I have searched for so far has had at least one error when transposing to Excel.

I am running Excel 2007.

Using If Function With Tick Boxes

Oct 20, 2009

I have created a Time Sheet for calculating the work hours of employees. There are various criteria which play a role in how work hours and wages earned are calculated (ex. time, over time, LOA, Travel time, stat holidays etc etc.)

In a certain cell I have placed a tick / check box which the user can tick to indicate that that particular day is a statutory holiday. The tick creates a True / False answer in another Linked Cell.

Based on the True / False result I have a formula which, using the IF function with multiple conditions whether the result is True or False, will calculate the hours worked for Regular, Time and Half and Double Time.

The Formula itself works but when I add the condition based on the check box - example: IF(c37=TRUE,...,if(...,if(...,IF(c37=FALSE,...,if(...,if(... and so on, only the TRUE option works. As soon as the check box is "unticked" I get the result "false".

I hope that all makes sense.

If it helps this is my formula... where C37 is the linked cell for the checkbox.

=IF(C37=TRUE,IF(B10<4.1,B11,IF(B10<8.1,4+(B10-B11),IF(B10<12.1,B10-B11+4,IF(B10>12,8,IF(C37=FALSE,IF(B10<8.1,0,IF(B10>8,IF(B10<12.1,B10-B11,4)))))))))

So, when the check box is ticked, the TRUE argument works fine. But when the check box is not ticked I get a "false" result.

Search Function (locate Data) Search All Sheets Within The Workbook

Sep 14, 2009

Using the search macro code below, could someone please help to add in more codes what I'm currently using, and also where to insert it. The Search function works well for what I need and it helps me to locate data. When using the search function somehow it search all sheets within the workbook but I only want it to search an array of sheets when using this macro that is needed to complete the task for what I'm after.

VBA: Search Function: Which Shows An Input Box Where You Can Enter A Word To Search For

Sep 9, 2003

I'm from Bavaria, Germany. Right now, I am doing an internship for my studies. my problem: I need a search procedure which shows an Input Box where you can enter a word to search for. It should work like the original Excel search (Ctrl-F), but with a simpler design, like with my own Text "Enter your Query" and a Button "Submit Query" / "Quit search". Is there the possibility to Highlight the Search Target? The problem hereby is that this highlighting should not be permanent. That means the user sees the target for which he searched for, the cell highlighted in a different color, etc. But as soon as the user clicks onto another cell, etc., the highlighting vanishes. If there is no fitting match, there should be a MessageBox like "Sorry the Target xyz cannot be found"

Using The =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH Function To Search Multiple Cells)

Aug 21, 2009

I' having trouble using the =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH formula to search multiple cells.

I can get it to work to search one cell (as below):

=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Same",G10)),"No Change",'Aug 09 Matrix'!F10)

(In this case the respone is No Change as Cell G10 contains "Same")

However cannot get it to work for several cells. I have pasted below and highlighted the function I would like it to perform:

=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Same",G10:R10)),"No Change",'Aug 09 Matrix'!F10)

Essentially the other cells in that row (G10:R10) all contain "Same", however for some reason it is identifying this as FALSE and putting in the data from the 'Aug 09 Matrix' sheet.

Replace Text In Mutiple Text Boxes

Sep 12, 2007

Trying to Find a specific word and Replace with another within a textbox ( created from the drawing tool, as well as the control toolbar) The textboxes contain loads of text information.

as an example
The word "Apple" to be replaced with "Orange"

I came across this code from the archives (compliments of Dave Hawley)

Sub ReplaceTextBoxText()
Dim sTextBox As Shape
Dim wSheet As Worksheet
Set wSheet = Sheets.Add()
For Each sTextBox In Sheet1.Shapes

I've tried several variations with no results. (perhaps it's to extensive for my modest needs)

I have 10 Text boxes each, on many tabs of a Multipage. I have a Private Sub LoadRow() for one tab.Is there a way to use a Sub that would work for each tab or do I have to write a new sub for each tab? Here’s the sub I’m using.
Private Sub LoadRow()

txtTrussco.Text = Cells(lCurrentRow, 1).Value
txtTPhone.Text = Cells(lCurrentRow, 2).Value
txtTFax.Text = Cells(lCurrentRow, 3).Value
txtTAddress.Text = Cells(lCurrentRow, 4).Value
txtTCity.Text = Cells(lCurrentRow, 5).Value

Tab Order Of Text Boxes

I have been working on an excel sheet with several text boxes that need data manually putting into them. I have set the texts boxes out in the correct order and could tab thru them perfectly in order, but then I saved, closed then reopen the document and now the text boxes do not tab in order. I have tried to rearrange them, delete them and start again but the same problem happens every time and I cannot get the tab order of the text boxes to stay in order

How To Change Text In Saving Boxes

Mar 26, 2014

I have a file that another person created and instead of traditionally saving, the only way to save file is by hitting X in top right corner and then a series of boxes pop up directing the user on what to do. I looked at macros within file and couldn't find anything really relating to the saving functions of document. This is a complex document and I'm starting to think that it isn't a macro. Is there any area in excel that allows you to adjust save settings? All I'm trying to do is change the wording in these pop up boxes but cannot find the source. Attached is screen shot of first box that pops up.

Change Text Boxes In Do While Loop

Mar 4, 2009

I made up a form of 30 text boxes to simplify entering data, but seem to be having a problem inserting it easily back into my excel file.

I would like to use a simple Do While loop to shorten my code but can't seem to change my text box correctly.

My text boxes all have names like this txtap1run11, txtap1run12, txtap1run13...

As you can see all I need to do is change the last number of the text box name.

I can't figure out how to do that though. I came up with this, I don't have the do while loop in.

Auto Populating Text Boxes?

May 1, 2013

I have a workbook that has multiple sheets. And on lets say as an example the first and third pages I have text boxes "reason for text boxes is for sizing issues" that are on both pages that are identical and have the same info that needs to be entered into them. What I would like to accomplish is when info is placed in those text boxes on the first sheet their values auto populate onto the third sheet and so and so forth. Being multiple text boxes on multiple sheets, going through all 5 would be daunting and time consuming.

Transferring Text Boxes To Cells

Apr 10, 2007

I want to transfer the contents of around 20 textboxes to 20 different cells. Allthough I have seen many code examples for doing this with a single text box e.g.


Sub getext()
Dim s As String
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Text Box 1").Select
s = Selection.Characters.Text
Range("A100").Value = s
End Sub

I can't seem to get it to loop through 20 boxes automatically using a For next loop for instance. Also I would like it to skip any empty text boxes it finds.
From what I've seen I don't think it would take too much code but I'm afraid I'm a complete beginner with macro's and completely stuck.

Calculating An Average But Excluding Boxes With Text

Sep 25, 2009

I'm trying to get excel to calculate the average time spent on appointments by officers in a small team. Each of them sees people each day, and as we're very busy I'm eager to get the time spent on each appointment down, by giving them a target of the number of people to see each day. At the moment we gather some stats on this, which show how many people are being seen by each officer.

The attached example sheet shows for one week a list of columns with officer's initials at the top, and says how many people were seen by each person each day during that week and then a how many people overall for the week.

I'd like to be able to generate statistics on the amount of time each officer has spent on average with customers, and base this on the fact that people have 360 minutes per day (they do 6 hours of appointments and another hour for admin) to see people.

I think the spreadsheet attached gives a good idea of the system and what I want to do.

Select/Delete Worksheet Text Boxes Using VBA ...

Apr 9, 2009

I'm sure you're all familiar with Text Boxes:

You can add shapes and text boxes (text box: A movable, resizable container for text or graphics. Use text boxes to position several blocks of text on a page or to give text a different orientation from other text in the document.) to a worksheet by using the Drawing toolbar.

Did you know that if you click the text box button, then click on a spreadsheet (inserting a blank text box), then click off the text box, a small blank text box will remain hidden from view on your spreadsheet? Once hidden, the only way to find it is to slowly move your cursor over the Text Box edge, and watch the cursor momentarily change shape. Did you also know that if you copy or fill down the cells behind that text box, it will make as many copies of itself as you made for the cell? Not too dis-similar from a virus.

Imagine what would happen if you unknowingly had some of these text boxes on your main calculation sheet (200 columns by 2000 rows); one where you regularly copied formulae/cells for a period of over four years. Yes, (judging by their names e.g. "Text Box 29413") the thriving population of these invisible beasties is now in the neighbourhood of thirty thousand! The damn things are worse than fleas; and they're impairing the function of the whole workbook.

Help! Would someone please provide a VBA macro to find, select and delete these little devils from the spreadsheet (just this one spreadsheet)?
