Select Empty Text Boxes

Apr 21, 2014

I have files where empty textboxes have been copied over tens if not hundreds of times, thereby slowing down the scrolling speed immensely.

I would be interested if there was a macro to

a) select all empty text boxes

b) select and delete all empty text boxes

Verifying Multiple Text Boxes Are Not Empty

Nov 13, 2009

I have many text boxes on a form and if any of them are empty then I want a msgbox to popup and exit sub. I know how to do the following

If txtExample1 is "" then msgbox and exit sub
if txt....2
if txt...3

Is there anyway to group the text boxes to test for empty so you don't have to list 20 textboxes

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)?

How To Highlight Row If 4 Of 5 Boxes Are Empty

Nov 19, 2013

I am trying to find out how to set my spreadsheet to highlight a row if four of the first five columns in that row are blank (i.e. if there is a company name in the first column but the next four are blank then highlight that row). It would also be acceptable for just the first box in the row to be highlighted, rather than the entire row - whichever is easier to formulate.

I've tried lots of conditional formatting formulas I've found online but none have worked so far, and I think it may be because there are no numbers in the spreadsheet at all.

Userform With Empty List Boxes

Jul 21, 2014

I have a userform that loads with when excel starts. The workbook has a second and third sheets with names from A1 to A20. The form is used to add information to the first sheet. There are two list boxes on the form the reference via VBA the names on sheets 2 and 3. When form initially opens the list boxes are void of data. I also have a macro that reopens the form without having to close the workbook. When I close the form and reopen it the list boxes are populated as they should be - so the list boxes are working correctly just not being populated initially. In the open form module I have code that sets the rowsource for the data on sheet 2 and 3. Why the userform does not populate when the workbook initially opens?

Here is the code in my open userform module

Sub openuserofrm()

ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("VILLAGEvisits").Activate

Sheets("VILLAGEvisits").Unprotect Password:=""
Sheets("OldVisits").Unprotect Password:=""

Using Drop Down Boxes And Not Being Able To Select Previous Values

Dec 10, 2009

I am wanting to configure approx 100 drop down boxes to all point to the same range of data, approx 40 names, but once the name has been selected, none of the other drop down boxes will be able to select that name.

eg.
range:
Dave
Mike
John
Steve

select Dave in drop down box in cell B5. Next cell, B7, I want a drop down box without Dave in it.
If i then change my mind, and select Steve in cell B5, it will automatically adjust cell B7 to allow Dave as he is now no longer selected in cell B5.

Make Formula Cells Empty Rather Than Empty Text

Apr 17, 2008

Is it possible to make a cell "really" blank/empty based on an If statement? For instance:

=if(a1>10,a1,"")

Has a value_if_false of "". But Excel interprets this a bit differently than a cell that never had anything typed into it.

So if you have a column full of this formula copied down, and hit <control+down arrow>, you will go straight to the bottom and skip over all rows. Whereas if you have a column with values and empty cells alternating and hit <control+down arrow>, you will only skip the empty cells and go to the next value. Excel treats the conditionally empty cells as if they have a value, when it comes to this type of navigation. This holds even if you copy and paste "Values" for the cells over the formulas.

Is there any way to tell Excel to make the cells truly empty?

I have a couple of excelfiles in which someone made a flowchart with text boxes. I would like a search code that would help me find a text or number in those text boxes. The CTRL+F function only works on cells. Does something similar exist for text boxes? Or can this be made in a macro?

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)

Find Next Empty Row And Select Cell In Column A

Jun 20, 2006

how i can go about finding the next empty row (and select the first cell of that row (column A))? edit: It probably should be noted that there are cells in Columns A through P. There are rows where all and/or just one cell contains data per row. So i cannot use a " lookup" based on a single column.

Select 1st Empty Cell In Column That Is Grouped

Feb 27, 2008

I am trying to paste data into a sheet immediately following the last weeks data. I went to use an offset function like :

Range("A2").End(xlDown).Select
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select

However, each weeks data is "Grouped" and therefore the .end(xldown) only takes me to the bottom of the visible rows, and the offset function selects one of the hidden cells.
