I am trying to create a excel based form (not User Form) which meets some our business accessibility standards (i.e. a user who cannot use a mouse, must be able to complete it using the keyboard).
I have got around the checkbox issue by creating faux checkboxes and asking the users to enter an X if appropriate. However, part of the information that they need to complete is in the form of a drop-down list (the information is being collected by a hidden datasheet for importing into Access and we need to control the format of the information being provided). I originally implemented this by using data validation on a cell and linking to a named range on a hidden sheet (there are over 100 options to select from). This made it easy for the user to tab to the cell with the data validation in it but, because of the length of the options list, it was a bit unwieldy and users were a bit frustrated by not being able to enter the first couple of letters and for the entry to auto-complete (maybe this is possible in a data validation created list but I couldn't seem to implement it). I have now created a combobox in place of the cell (from the Control Toolbox) and linked this to the name range - so far so good and I have autocomplete working. The trouble now is that I can't get the combobox to get focus without using the mouse to click it.
After writing "War and Peace", what I wanted to know is if I can do this by VBA? The trouble is that I am a good magpie and can kind of cut and paste code if I can find it but I am shocking when it comes to writing anything from scratch. My instinct tells me that I want to trigger some kind of code when the user tabs out of the cell before the combobox to activate and dropdown the combobox and then to be able to either tab or hit enter in order to give focus to the next cell in the form.
The sheet and workbook are protected with only the cells requiring completion being unlocked.
My cell to cell tab function is not working properly in Excel (but works in other programs like Word). Instead of moving one cell to the right, such as A1 to B1, when I hit the TAB key it moves from A1 to T1, then to AM1. This is the case in EVERY excel document I open/create on my work computer (but all other computers at work do not have this problem). The documents are NOT protected and the cells are NOT locked.
I have a form and I would like certain textboxes to be inaccessible via tabbing. In the properties for each textbox I have selected LOCKED, so that their values cannot be altered. Is there a way to completely bypass them when tabbing?
I may be doing this wrong, but I have a form that i created using Active X controls in Excel 2007 (I couldn't use the form control text box, it was greyed out). I have textbox1, textbox2 etc... I got the form to work but I can't tab through. When the user is done entering data in textbox1, I want to set the focus to textbox2. i would like this to happen with enter and tab.
I created a user form to get information to be added to a spreadsheet, and then later needed to add a few more fields. Now when you tab through the fields, they are out of order. For isntance it will tab down through the first three fields, then flips to the second column of fields, then back to the first again.
Is there a way to setup the order in which fields are tabbed? (Note: I am refering to the tab key on the keyboard being used to move between fields, not tabbing a form to create multiple pages.). How do I add a horizontal rule to the form? I dont see it in the toolbox...
I have a Userform containing Textboxes and ComboBoxes. On all of the textboxes the TabKeyBehavior property is set to False.
Sometimes when you are typing either a textbox or a Combobox when you hit the Tab key to tab to the next field it tabs you over 5 spaces instead of going to the next field.
Anybody run accross this and find a solution to it. I have only run into this with excel userforms and never in Access db forms.
I am having a problem using data from my combobox to find the cell on the worksheet and write to the adjacent cell.
Worksheet name is Fleet ComboBox Name is ComboBox7 TextBox name is TextBox3 CommandButton1
I would like to be able to take the text from ComboBox7, find this text in Col A of worksheet Fleet and write the Value of TextBox3 in the adjacent cell in Col B. when the CommandButton1 is pressed.
Am trying to get dynamic population of 2nd combobox based on match from criteria in combobox 1.
if column a = bears and column b = colours of bears then
when I select bears in combobox one, combobox 2 would populate with colors of bear.
I am think of having a combobox 1 change event that evaluates each row in a specific range (does it match the criteria?) if so, then add 2nd cell (column b) of that row to the combobox 2.
I know it would probably involve match and offset, add item and loop, but I am not sure what the syntax is.
I need to populate two combo boxes from excel sheet, the data will be like below:
Column A Column B A 1 A 2 A 3 A 4 A 5 B 100 B 101 B 102
So from the above data, one combo box should hold unique values A & B.
On selecting a value from the 1st combo box A or B, respective values should be populated in 2nd combo box.
So the data should be like below:
If A is selected in the 1st combo box, then 2nd combo box should only show the values 1,2,3,4 & 5. If B is selected in the 1st combo box, then 2nd combo box should only show the values 100,101 & 102.
Friends I need it in a macro and one important point is, this is dynamic and it is not static and the data can be more.
When I make a comboBox selection from the dropdown menu, the menu stays down until the last statement of the comboBox code is finished. How do I make the dropdown disappear immediately after the selection is made?
try and achive is when a user selects a item from the 1st Combobox the 2nd Combobox is the populated with the cell that is to the right of the selected item.
for Example if a user selects AAB from combobox1,, Combobox2 should populate with Belly.
I created a UserForm then linked ComboBox1 to range A2:A, TextBox2 to range E2:E, and ComboBox3 to range M2:M of the same worksheet, named Sheet3. The row contents in Column A, Column E, and Column M are associated. Therefore, when the UserForm is active I want to be able to select a row from Column A in ComboBox1 and have the UserForm pull the contents from the same row of Column E into TextBox2, and Column M into ComboBox3. Here is what I have so far, but its not quite doing it.
Code: Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() Sheets("Sheet3").Activate Dim ColARange As Range
I have a table, headers "FirstName" and "SurName".
Further a Userform with 2 Comboboxes "FirstName" and "SurName"
I'd like to choose the FirstName (say Jack) in the "FirstName" combobox, and based on that get the choice of the Surnames of all my Jacks in the "SurName" combobox.
Actually my sheet has much more fields and comboboxes, but i think my problem is just that I do not find a way to populate them dynamically.
I'm trying to create a bit of code to put the value of a combobox to a cel. There are 200 comboboxes and 200 cells.
It should look a bit like this:
Dim i, j As Integer i = 2 'First element is on line 2 j = 1 'Elemennumber 1 is first Do Cells(i, 4) = cboE & j & _Typ".Value 'This is the part that doesn't work i = i + 1 j = j + 1 While j < 200 the comboxes have following names: cboE1_Typ to cboE200_Type
I wanted to work with a control array but VBA doesn't support this
I have to fill out two cells (lets say A10 and A11), with the same data taken from a list of given data. The given data is placed in one column.
I have created Combo Box where the ListFillRange is the given data area and in the LinkedCell I tried to write two cells but Excel doesn’t accept list of two cells. For example, I tried to write in the LinkedCell A10,A11 and A10:A11 and A10;A11 but none of this syntax worked.
I can’t write A10 only in the LinkedCell and then to write a function A11=A10 in cell A11, because in some cases the content of cell A11 will be changed by another Combo Box linked to cell A11 and that Combo Box will override any function that will be written in A11.
I have a VBA form and on form initialize I want to populate a combo box… My array to populate it with could be a massive list so I need to set my array before it populates
I have this code so far but I need my array to be from A5 to the last row in sheet 1
I know how to set an exact range but not one that changes.
VB: Dim myArray As Variant myArray = With Me.ComboBox1 .List = myArray End With
Here is a sample of the data I need to populate in the combobox.
I have a worksheet, and I want to place a combobox in a cell, but being able to add values not on the corresponding list. Done almost everything, but cannot find a way to use the position of the cell, so I can dinamicly place a combobox. Ex.- place a combo in a cell, then after you get the value, delete the combo and put it in the cell bellow, etc. In order to do this I need the position of the cell: left, right, height, width.
I've been asked to build a pricing spread sheet for large construction projects. Each "Room" can be priced from a 15 different list price for the same items. I have a combo box that selects the correct list price row for the items to be price in a single "Room". I would like to be able to copy & paste a room and change the list price selection. This work fine except for the Cell Link in the combo box, which holds the original cell in the Cell Link reference when it is copied. It does not let me use a formula as the Cell Link reference.
I am looking for a way to use VBA code to allow a combo box (form control) to change the data in a cell. For example: The combo box could contain Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. If the user selects Monday in the combo box, than cell A1 will populate the word Monday. In the particular situation that I using this for, an if statement will not work since there are 82 values (options) in the combo box.
I've have a combobox on a userform which should refer to a cell on a worksheet directly. E.g. The dropdown list that feeds to box is on Sheet2 range C1:C6 Whatever is selected should be copied to Sheet1 cell B18.
Now, if I populate cell B18 manually, it will pick it up, but if I then change the combobox selection, cell B18 either doesn't change or goes blank.?
I would like to have a ComboBox on a worksheet (worksheet1) that is populated by a list on another worksheet (worksheet1). Each time I select something from the ComboBox, it would display text in a cell within worksheet1.
For example, the ComboBox would have "Cat", "Dog", "Cow". And when I select "Dog" from the ComboBox, it would display in a cell nearby "Woof".
I want to fill two Combobox (cmb 2 and 3) dependent on what the user has chosen in a first ComboBox (cmb1).
The first combobox ist based on on the first sheet, and the second and third combobox shall be filled with values from other worksheet corresponding on combobox 1 selection.
I have a userform with a combobox that has three items to choose from: Blue, Red, and Yellow. When a user selects one of those options, I would like another combobox to appear on my userform with a specific list for that option.
I'm trying to make a userform that has 2 combo boxes. I have just 3 columns right now.

I copied and pasted Column A into Column C and then removed duplicates. I named Column C 'ValList' and placed it in the RowSource for ComboBox1. What I now want is for ComboBox2 to populate based on my selection in ComboBox1. There are no duplicates in Column B. Duplicates are in Column A.
I also named Column A 'Proc_Grp' and Column B 'ADA_QSI_Desc'
For the properties in Combobox2, I left the RowSource empty. (that's correct right?) Because there's going to be a code that links Combobox2 to Combobox1... I think...
