Should I Use A Radio Button Or Checkbox
Feb 22, 2008
I'm making a worksheet where the user has the options to select "yes" or "no". I used active x radio buttons because I feel they are more flexible. The problem I'm running in to is, what happens if there is an "unknown"? I can't find a way to "deselect" a radio button?
I tried using 2 checkboxes using the following
Checkbox 1:
If CheckBox2.Value = True Then
CheckBox1.Value = False
End If
Checkbox2:
If CheckBox1.Value = True Then
CheckBox2.Value = False
End If
The problem with this is, you have to deselect one checkbox before you can select the other. It works, but it’s a little more cumbersome then I was hoping. Is there a better solution?

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 have a chart that's being updated with different values when I cklick on different radiobuttons. When the cells that the radio button refers to is empty or the calculation in the cell have an error it pops up a message that I need to click OK to go on. Is there a way to stop these alerts by writing a script that shuts the alert messages off during each click?

When I select the binoculers by project the window we are disucssing with the radio button comes up (after the project number is added and sendkey to select filter - only shows one radio button). Attached is the source code of the original window and a snapshot of what it looks like.
First window - I currently have the code going to the project area (where we cannot type anything) then using sendkey to tab and enter to select the binoculers.
New window - only one radio button shows after you type a project number than hit filter.

I am looking at designing a simple radio button system which allows me to fill an adjacent cell with values from a certain column - so in the example, column C is the total value, and columns D-F will ideally have a radio button which a user can just click to select the value.

I have a Userform (frmData) with 4 CommandButtons (Cmd1, Cmd2 etc) and also 2 RadioButtons (Opt1 & Opt2).
I want Opt1 to be the default selection when frmData is opened.
If Opt1 or Opt2 is selected I want that option to stay selected until frmData is closed.
When Cmd1 is selected code1 runs if Opt1 is ticked, and Code2 if Opt2 is selected.

I have code in my macro that outputs a radio button for every project that is entered into the database. All radio buttons are part of the same group. I know how to give the radio button an caption name but I do not know how to give the radiobutton an actual name that I can call to. How can I do this in excel macros?

On the same worksheet and tab I have created a second set of radio buttons but all the radio buttons are grouped as the same set.
How do I define the second group as a second group?

I have created a survey in excel 2003. It has 70 questions on it and the user responds to the questions by clicking on a radio button. There are 4 radio buttons within a group box for each question and the user will select one of them.
At the end of 'sheet 1' with all these questions on, i have a button which the user presses to proceed to 'sheet 2'. When they press the button i want to ensure is that all questions have been answered ie: 1 of the radio buttons is selected for every question.
If one of the questions isnt answered then a pop up box will appear to tell the user they have unanswered questions and then the vba code will exit and the user stays on the question sheet (sheet 1). If all the questions are answered then the user will move to 'sheet 2'. (the reference cells for all the groups of radio buttons are within column G on sheet 1).

I have an issue with a combo box and radio button.
Anytime I click on either of them, they reduce in size.
It's as if it is reducing by the same ratio every time until you can't click on it anymore.

I have a form (worksheet with controls embedded in) and the form changes color depending on what the user clicked, problem is that button colors and cell pattern colors don't quite match.
thought I solved it by making the buttons backstyle = transparent.
However, as soon as radio button was clicked, transparency was lost.
I have named the range of the form "FormGround" so that when Service 1 is select, the Form turn a different colour. I have my subsequent buttons change to that same color as well (using the cell's color index number.

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 an excel file containing 50 sheets which we use as an accreditation test. Each sheet contains one question to which there are several possible answers. These answers (for example, A, B, C and D) are option buttons and when a user selects one, that selection is recorded as their response which is then marked. After answering a question they click a NEXT button to move on and as they move on the previous sheet (question) is hidden so they only ever see the current question sheet.
This has worked well for us for a few years, but we have just noticed some odd behaviour on ONE SPECIFIC sheet. The option button the user selects on that sheet (it is actually question 13 in the sequence) is not stored after the test is completed. However on every other sheet, the selection is stored fine - just this one sheet. The properties of all objects on the rouge sheet are the same as the other sheets. I have duplicated a working sheet and tried replacing the question 13 sheet to try that, but the problem persists.
I tried deleting that Q13 sheet and running the test without it and the same problem occured but this time on the preceeding sheet (question 12) which suggests it is not the actual sheet that is causing the problem.
This is the vb code we have on each sheet
Option ExplicitDim Response As StringDim q13 As IntegerPrivate Sub cmdQ13_Click()    q13 = 0
If optq13a.Value = False And optq13b.Value = False And optq13c.Value = False And optq13d.Value = False Then
Response = MsgBox("You must answer Question 13 by selecting one of the options!", 16, "More Information Needed !")       Â
[Code] .....
So in this example there are 4 option buttons and 1 command button. It is no different to the other 49 sheets

I have a worksheet (attached) that lists various clients in columan C. Column E lists whether each of the clients listed in Column C are 'Existing Business' or 'New Business'. I require a user form that has three radio buttons (one to select 'New Business', another for 'Existing Business' & one for 'All').
When Selecting a radio button, (e.g. 'Existing Business'), I need all clients listed in Column C of the worksheet that also have 'Existing Business' in Column E to be listed in a ListBox on the UserForm (with the second radio button allowing the text box to list 'New Business' and the third to list both Existing and New).

I have a user form that has one combo box on it that right now references one column of data.
Now I am being asked to have three columns of data and the combo box to show one of the three when a certain criteria is met.
I believe it would be easiest to have an additional combox with a change event when the box is populated with "whatever" in the field
So S:3 to S:5 have A, B, C
And EC:1-EC:59, ED:1-ED:59, EE:1-EE:59 contain the data that should show when S:3, S:4, or S:5 is selected.
If S:3 is selected then the list in EC:1 - EC59 would show and so on.

I would like to set up some option buttons so that the will be become visible and enabled when a check box is checked, and the opposite when the same checkbox is not check. This is my problem
Private Sub cbpDiscAlum_Click()
Dim myOption As Control
Dim myValue As Boolean
myValue = cbpDiscAlum.Value = True
If myValue = True Then
For Each myOption In pDiscounts.Controls
myOption.Visble = True
myOption.Enabled = True
Next myOption
Else
For Each myOption In pDiscounts.Controls
myOption.Visible = False
myOption.Enabled = False
Next myOption
End If
End Sub
It is the 5th command where it gets hung up: For Each myOption In pDiscounts.Controls. I am sure I am spelling both of the names correctly: the checkbox, and the group name.

I have 3 checkboxes; when one is checked, a set/range of rows should be visible. Only 1 checkbox should be checked at a time.
If checkbox 18 is already checked, and checkbox 20 is then checked, I want the first checkbox unchecked and the rows for checkbox hidden.
I'm using the following code. It works great as long as I check and uncheck the same box before attempting to check another box. But if Checkbox18 is already checked with its rows showing, and I then check checkbox20, the checkbox20 sub runs and as I step through, it jumps to sub checkbox18.
How can I stop my subs from jumping from one to another?
Code:
Private Sub CheckBox18_Click()
If CheckBox18.Value = True Then
Worksheets("TRF").Rows("36:41").Hidden = False
Worksheets("TRF").Rows("42:64").Hidden = True
Worksheets("TRF").Rows("65:76").Hidden = True
CheckBox19.Value = False
[Code] .........

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.
