Selecting Radio Buttons Using A Macro
Oct 20, 2008
I created two radio buttons on a spreadsheet where a user can select
one button for Yes and the other for No. When I right click these
buttons, I notice the names (shown on the left hand side of the
formula bar) are:
Option Button 3 (for No)
Option Button 4 (for Yes)
I'd like to create a macro that automatically selects the Yes or No
button depending on a cell value in another tab. If the cell value is
1, the macro should select Yes. If the value is 0 the macro should
select No.
I tried running the macro below:
Sub testSelectYesOrNo()
If Not IsEmpty(Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1").Value) Then
Select Case Sheets("Sheet2").Range("A1").Value
Case Is = 1
Sheets("Sheet1").OptionButton4 = True
Case Is = 0
Sheets("Sheet1").OptionButton3 = True
End Select
End If
End Sub
But when this runs I get a "Run-time error 438 Object doesn't support this property or method"
When I click debug, the text "Sheets("Sheet1").OptionButton4 = True"
was highlighted.

I am trying to create a worksheet that has multiple radio buttons. Each radio button is linked to a Macro. I need there to be many buttons running down one side of the worksheet. Each button needs to perform a macro that is relevant to the cells in the same row that it is on.
Essentially what i am trying to do is make a macro that when the button is pressed copys data from H6 and paste it into B6. The button is situated above I6. I need a button for each row from 6 to 110.
While this macro is easy to create (i use the record button and then assign the macro to the button), i would have to do this 104 times and assign a new macro to each button.
Is there a quicker way?

I've got a small problem with radio buttons. I've been asked to add a few to a sheet we use at work, problem I'm having is when I add these new buttons from the forms toolbar and then assign the cell link for them some of the other radio buttons on the sheet asume the cell link of the new buttons and when I change them back the cell link for the new buttons change ? i could understand this problem if I had maybe copied them and modified the copies perhaps but that isn't the case.

What code do I need to have behind a command button to carry out an action (for example select cell A1 or B1) depending on which one of two radio buttons are selected? I have tried:
Sub Button23_Click()
If Opt1 Then
Range("A1").Select
End If
End Sub

I have inherited a spreadsheet that has a text box and a radio form that I cannot delete for the life of me. I can't click to select either one nor right click to do anything. I have an "Approve" and "Reject" button on top of them and those work great. But how do I delete the others?

I am creating scorecards for our company and ratings are inputted using radio buttons (form control). I have a "clear" macro that clears all fields and radio button values (none is ticket). This macro is called throughout different sheets, as different roles in the company have different KPIs and should be on different sheets. I need a code that detects all radio buttons within a certain sheet and clear their values. I cannot put specific radio button names, as I have a lot.

I need to filter data from row 87 downwards depending on the choices above. Some of the choices could be only one like in the measurement type. That I can take care of but what if the choice is more than one, it could be four and it is not fixed. Is that possible in autofilter? This is when they go to checkboxes where they may have many option. The mounting part is best example of many options. This is the part I can't incorporate to macro. It's somoething dynamic. I can't make my filter autoadjust. So essentially,I wanted to automatically edit the filtering based on those 10 criteria, which is also in ten different columns.Sample work.xlsm

I have a pair of radio buttons on an Excel 2007 sheet. I want the buttons to be clickable, but have the sheet protected.
Both are defined as unlocked. The Group containing the two buttons is also defined as unlocked.
But when I protect the sheet, one of the two buttons gets the pop-up saying the cell is protected - the other button is fine. I've even tried unlocking the cells behind the buttons, but it still pops up.

I work in the science field and I'm trying to record an observation with some codes within a template. I have 5 different codes (A-E) to choose from and want to display the code that the person has chosen for each of the 6 compounds they are working with.
I started creating these command radio buttons with some code to display the results in part particular cell, but I would need to do this 30 times linking each group together to get what I want. I know there's an easier way to do this but ....

just wondering if there's a way i can make the Radio buttons and check-boxes in my forms select-able by hitting enter? My form is quite long and it takes too much time for users to always have to grab the mouse and click the box, if they could just tab to the radio box or check box and hit enter to select it it would be awesome!

I am trying to make a basic worksheet that will have radio buttons. I have searched around for about 2 hours and can not find any documentation on how exactly to create a buttons and make it do what I want. I have also tried F1 in Excel but that hasn't helped any either. I did stumble uppon a file called "Options.xls" when searching this forum but it does not explain how the buttons were made. The only thing i can figure out how to do is basically insert a button onto the document, and rename the label of the button that's about it. I basically want to create a group of (3) or so buttons. If button A is picked, cell D1 will display "x". If button B is picked, cell D1 will display "y", and so on. Is there a link to an example out there that shows how to create and use buttons?

by using radio buttons or checkbox, or anything similar. Based on the answer, I would like cells to appear below the question, for example in B3 another question would be "how many guests would you like to invite?" and B2 would be their answer but is preset to "0"

I'd like to insert some radio buttons in a worksheet that activate a hyperlink to a web page and then be able to go back to where I started (ie the radio button)
I can link the button to a macro which was a recording of clicking on a hyperlink. The trouble is when I hit the return arrow to return to the sheet from the web page I go back to the location of the hyperlink not where I started from.
Is there a way to do this with the buttons.
If I can rearrange the sheet to allow for more narrow columns I may be able to just use the hyperlink friendly name argument and do it that way but I'm not so sure I can insert more narrow columns without messing up the layout of the whole sheet. With a button I can float several of them over an area regardless of the width of the columns.

every week i send out a pivot table to different project co-ordinators and would like a way of having simple option button so that they can have the data by "hours" or "costs" and can use tick boxes for the row fields they want to show, for example, "profession", "workstage"," name","cost rate". The page field will always be "Project" and the Column Field will always be "Period" and " Date"
I then want the pivot table to change automatically to their choices. I am pretty basic with VBA so may need explanantions too. It would save me sending out 10 versions of a pivot table all feeding off the same data! They could actually do something themselves! (i know they could drag the fileds they want into the areas they need them but trust me when i say they are not that advanced, they are good at ticking!!)

I'm trying to create a form using radio buttons from the "Forms Tool Bar" and not sure I shouldn't be using the "Control Tool Bar"
I've got multiple buttons and wanted to group them so i used the "Group Box" from the Forms tool bar but now there's a box around the buttons (I've turned off Printing for the box) that gets in the way of other text on sheet. I did some searching and thought I read where you could also use the drawing tool bar and draw a rectangle around the buttons which would then let them operate independent of other groups of buttons but that doesn't seem to work so I'm guessing I imagined it. I also noticed that if you don't draw the "Group Box" around the hole radio button box, they don't work with others in the same "Group Box"
I'm not sure if I should use the buttons in the "Control Tool Bar" but I'm thinking I should so that I have the flexibility should I decide to do something different in the future. I'm thinking about using the buttons to hide a sheet as well as select the sheet for printing, but for now one hurdle at a time.
Lastly I tried looking up some information on how to get the "Control Tool Bar" radio button to behave similar to the "Forms" version of the button (i.e. click the button and it appears to alternate from other buttons in the group), however when I place my mouse over the button it selects it rather than letting me change it's state from true to false.

I have been using Excel for some time now but just started working back with the Macros! Finally figured out that you had to turn on the Designer tab to get to some of the functionality of the macros. I haven’t been able to find ANYTHING ANYWHERE to tell me how to create buttons or Icons in the 07 Excel!

adding custom 16 x 16 buttons to toolbars, which weren't preset images or using the built in deisgner.
Was hoping there may be an add-in giving more variety of buttons or a way to import set images. Very frustrating as there are many microsoft 16x16 bmps / icons that would be ideal but the choice is extremely limited.

Is it possible to link 3 buttons to one macro.
What I'm trying to do is have 3 buttons:
Load Button:
-Which makes a copy of the current sheet, renames it, and freezes its values
Print Button:
prints all the sheets
Clear button:
deletes all of the named sheets
I'm sure this can be done with an if then else statement, but I'm just not sure how to set it up to capture input.

I can't write macros, so have to create them by actually recording the process. I did that just now and then copied it into the Command button. When I run it from Tools>Macros, it works, but when I run it using the Command button it fails.
I'm trying to copy and paste values current MTD figures (P18:P39) to previous MTD area (W18:W39), but the command button fails at this selection. Cells 28-35 are blank, but I don't think this makes any difference, as I've tried the command button with those cells zeroed out.
This is what I recorded initially; this works from Tools>Macros
Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
' Macro recorded 04/01/2008 by Lucertola
'
'
Sheets("Reconciliation").Select
Range("P18:P39").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("W18").Select.....................

I want to put navigation buttons on each of the twelve spreadsheets, in one workbook, to run one macro. Is it possible to do this or do I need to follow the route of creating a separate macro for each (forms) button?
The route I have begun is to create this simple navigation macro is as follows.
Sub Goto200and100()
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 2").Select
Range("Q1400").Select
End Sub
Sub Goto100and50()
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 91").Select
Range("Q1400").Select
End Sub

Is there a way to add a reference to a button, which could show the user what the button does before he clicks on it. I'm thinking something similar to moving the mouse to a program in the Windows taskbar.

Is it possible to change the color of buttons or command buttons? There does not seem to be any place that allows this under properties for buttons, although there does for command bars. However, I've tried recording a macro as I change the color, but nothing get's recorded so I'm not sure what the syntax would be.
I have a spreadsheet with several buttons and I'd like them to change colors as they are pressed so it's possible to see what you've already done. And then, as soon as any other cell on the sheet is changed, the buttons reset color.

I need to have my macro select all buttons in the current row (including the button I clicked on and delete them. There are many rows with buttons. Each row needs to have this button. So I need it to be row specific.
I know that this is how to select the row that the button is in:
VB : sh1.Buttons(Application.Caller).TopLeftCell.Row
But I do not know how to select the buttons in that row. It needs to be included in this:
VB:
Sub move()
Dim shname As String, sh1 As Worksheet, lc As Long, rw As Long
Set sh1 = ActiveSheet
lc = sh1.Cells.Find("*", , , , 2, 2).Column
rw = sh1.Buttons(Application.Caller).TopLeftCell.Row
[Code] .....
After many attempts and alot of research, I have some more code for this problem: This deletes all buttons in the sheet:
VB:
Sub DeleteShapes()
Dim shp As Shape
Dim myVar As Shapes
ActiveSheet.Activate
[Code] .....
And this deletes the current button only:
VB:
Sub pressbuttons()
With ActiveSheet.Buttons(Application.Caller)
.Delete
End With
End Sub
Any way to either limit the first code to just a particular row, or expand the second one to the entire row.

I'm using the With ActiveSheet.MailEnvelope command in vb to send an email and it works fine, but the range I am selecting includes macro buttons on the sheet.
It is possible to prevent macro buttons from been printed by selecting Format Control > Properties on the button and unticking Print Object (off by default anyway).
Is there any equivalent way of preventing macro buttons from appearing in emails when a range is emailed rather than printed.

I have several Activex buttons in sheet "Options" and I would like to automatically assign each button to the same macro "Run_Options", in order to execute the macro "Run_Options" when I do click over any button.
How can I do that with a excel macro?
