I just found out the the line
Range("a1") = tbox.Text
only grabs the first 255 characters and leaves the rest behind. I have around 200 workbooks with textboxes in them and I need to get them onto the worksheets themselves.
I have a cell that is acutally a concatination of several other cells. The formula is something like this....
=A1 & B1 & A1 & C1 & A1 & D1 & A1
Cell A1 contains the formula =char(13). This forces a line break between each data element.
My problem is that on some peoples machines the cell displays with a square at the end. I'm not sure why it does this only on some machines. Is there a better way to do this or is there a way to suppress the square?
I'm trying to validate a string that can have only dots and numbers, but there can't be two dots in a row. String has to begin with a number and end to a dot
So these are ok
1.1.1.1.1.1.
and
2.452443.1.5.21.5.42131.
but
1..1.
and
1.1.t.
and
.1.1.
and
1.1
are not ok.
In Excel VBA Userform, how to copy the text from textbox automatically when the cursor is being moved from the textbox. And when i put CTRL+V then the copyed text has to be pasted.
View 5 Replies View RelatedCode:
Private Sub cmdSearchButton_Click()
Dim txtbox As String 'stores lookup value
Dim x As Variant 'value for wwid txt box
Dim ForeName As String
Dim SurName As String
Dim wwid As Variant
Dim iPosition As Integer
[Code] .......
Here is my code, it does a vlookup and if the persons name is not found it will split the text entered into forename and surname but when i try and add
Code:
frmAdd.txtForename.Text = "&ForeName &"
frmAdd.txtSurname.Text = "&SureName &"
It actually displays &ForeName & in the text box of the next from rather than what ForeName is..
eg. John Smith -> search button -> user not found msg -> user wants to add user -> string is split into forename and surname -> forename = John , surname = Smith -> display this in the second form.
What code should i be using to do this, i thought that &ForeName & would work.
Looking for a macro to insert a textbox with the textbox containing a formula rather then text.

I have attached my file.

tabName = TextBox1
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("VSVA Data").Select
Selection.Name = tabName

Is it possible to set a PasswordChar for an InputBox?
Basically, I have an input box asking for an admin password to make changes, and I'd like to make it so onlookers wouldnt be able to see the password. Any suggestions on how to do this?

I'm new to this, and trying to get a spreadsheet organised for my nba fantasy team. To save time, (and me having to enter the positions of 300ish people individually) I'm trying to pull out their positions into seperate colums.
The data I am trying to pull is from these:
Jarrett Jack, Ind PG
Gerald Wallace, Cha SF, PF
=IF(FIND("PG",$B2),"PG","")
That is the formula I am trying to use, it finds the PG for some, but when it doesn't it gives me this "#VALUE!" in the cells, instead of a blank as I have tried to input.
Now, there are 5 combinations that I am trying to pull out: PG, SG, SF, PF and C.
There are multiple combinations that need to be pulled out, and placed into my 3 cells allocated (EG - 1 for Pg, 1 for SG, 1 for SF).
I have also found a flaw that takes the C from Cha (being the team) instead of from the position. Can I search for a individual C? I've tried to google these things, but I can't find an answer.
Cell B4: 02/11/2008
Cell B7: Empty
Cell B8: Empty
Cell B9: Empty
Cell B10: Empty
Cell B11: Empty
Cell B12: Empty
Cell B13: Empty
Cell B14: Empty
B4 is a date format and I need to copy each single character from B4 so that it goes into the corresponding cells from B7 through to B14. So it looks like this:
Cell B4: 02/11/2008
Cell B7: 0
Cell B8: 2
Cell B9: 1
Cell B10: 1
Cell B11: 2
Cell B12: 0
Cell B13: 0
Cell B14: 8
I am not sure how to find the position of a character and put it into another cell, is anyone able to help me with this?
is there a way to automate =left(b1,40) and remove commas from the text?
text in the cell would be something like a name for instance john doe, LLC but some names are to long so was using the =left to reduce it to 40 characters and using find/replace for the commas replacing it with a space.
how I could split a cell's contents into two cells when it contains more than 1024 chars? The code would need to be clever enough to split the data after the nearest full stop before the 1024 char limit.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need a slight mod to the below code which works perfectly otherwise. What it does is it divides whatever is in column K by 30 and puts in its relative cell in column M( There a bunch of mini tables below each other with blank rows in between).
The thing is sometimes there are characters in column K like "N/A" for instance and the macro crashes since its only designed to take into account numerical and blank cells in column K.

=RIGHT(A1,MIN(500,LEN(A1)))
I would like to apply this formula to VBA and call to existing macro so that this is applied to all the cells in Col. A. How can I do that? Or, is there a better way to do it?
Buttom line, I'd like to see only the last 500 characters per cells in Col. A after I run the macro.
I need to store a known index, unknown value in a variable so I can increase the value and use it in a database. It is used as a version number for a part and the versions go like: "00" -> "AA" -> "AB" -> .... -> "AZ" -> "BA"... etc.
VB:
If tool.Worksheets("TRB Database").Cells(A, "R").Value <>
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Design Calculator, Q").Cells(7, "C").Value Or
tool.Worksheets("TRB Database").Cells(A, "AA").Value <>
ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Design Calculator, Q").Cells(5, "K").Value Or tool.Worksheets("TRB Database")
[Code] ....
That is a part of the increase and when I try to increase "AA" by 1 it goes to "B" and not "AB".
VB: tool.Worksheets("TRB Database").Cells(row1, "D").Value = Chr(Asc(tool.Worksheets("TRB Database").Cells(A, "D").Value) + 1)
This is where I increase the value.
I am having mucho problems because of Excel's 255 character limit when copying an entire spreadsheet to a new workbook.
In a nutshell, I copy a "data entry" page onto a “report” page within a workbook. The entire “report” page is then copied and moved into a new workbook. That allows me to have a stand alone, exported file outside of my main data entry tool. When you copy an entire page to a new workbook, Excel imposes a 255 character limit. Thus, I see truncated responses on the exported spreadsheet only.
I am attempting to format some TextBoxes from within a For/Next loop. I need a way to check which TextBox is the active TextBox in the loop. Using i as the variable, I came up with this code snippet: Me.Controls("TB" & i).Text = Format("TB" & i, "mm/dd/yy")
If i = 3, this gives me in TextBox3 (which is called TB3) the text 'TB3' and not the value of what is in TB3. It has got to bo something simple, I just can't see it!!!

I have a textbox showing 7 lines of words.
When it is shown in my computer, everything looks fine.
When I use another computer, the lines in the textbox could be shown completely since the height of the textbox is not enough to show the whole text. I guess it is because the resolution of the screen is different.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to manipulate a stock list using a Userform to simplify the UI.
Problem:
The idea is to allow the user to enter data via the Userform which works fine until we need to do calculations. The spreadsheet contains calculations which use the cost and margin data input via the Userform. The formula results are then supposed to display via the Userform. The problem is that the spreadsheet calculation is overwritten when the save/update button on the Userform is clicked. I understand why this is happening, but I am unable to fix it.
