I have read several articles saying using a command button as a toggle button can't be done but some articles have said it is possible using the state properties.
.State = msobuttondown
.State = msobuttonup
Is there any way to combine this with the onaction property so that when you press the button, it stays down and activates a macro then when you press it again it pops back up and activates another macro.
Is there a way to insert a toggle button into a custom tool bar?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am running Excel 2003 and in my workbook I created a macro and assigned it to a toolbar comman button, "Copy Filtered Data". This macro copies the visible data into a new workbook.
This works well but others in my company will also be accessing this workbook from a sharepoint and I discovered that when they open it this command button is not on their toolbar.
Would anyone know what I need to do to have this button load on the toolbar when the workbook opens?
Also, I would like this button to either unload or greyout when the workbook that this button is intended for is closed.
I have a togglebutton for an excel sheet in use for scoring psychological tests. When pressed, the button higlights the cells where a raw score is inserted.
What I need is a code to higlight the togglebutton when pressed, eg. green (colorindex 4). The button is white. How to do this?
Below is the code, It has more lines than needed, but it works.
Private Sub ToggleButton1_Click()
'FKV TOGGLE'
ActiveSheet.Unprotect "manisk"
If ToggleButton1 Then

I currently am using a form button to create new rows.
I need two different kind of buttons. I have a button that does this-
VB:
Sub InsertRow()
'this inserts a row where the button is clicked.
Dim r As Range
[Code]....
However, when I try and create these codes using a Command button (I need it for the color), I get the error
"unable to get the buttons property of the Worksheet class"
P.S one other thing, say the button is in row 3, and Cells A1 and A2 are merged, when you click the button in row 3, it should extend the merge to A3.
i want to create a save button in sheet 1, on clicking the same the data entered in the particluar cells of sheet 1 should get saved in sheet 2 in given format

How can I return name of a command button on click? I want to create some sort buttons on a sheet I will use regularly to speed things up. I thought if I could call each sort button by the column letter the button sits in I can use this in a single sub for all buttons
e.g the button sitting in column A is called "A". when i click the button, it returns it's name to a variable which I can then use to sort column A. I know I could create a seperate routine for each button but I was just trying to think of something neater.
I have a userform with a button on it named But1. Is it possible to store But1 into a variable then activate the But1_Click action using a variable?
Dim strButname As String
strButname ="But1"
Now, how would you activate the But1_Click method using strButname variable. With listboxes you can use the Control(strListboxName) methodology?
This doesn't work, but gives you an idea of what I am trying to do.
Controls(strButname)_click
I'm looking for a way to have mutually exclusive toggle buttons (i.e. only one can be selected at a time) embedded in a worksheet. It is possible with radio buttons but they won't serve my needs.

What I need is a button to turn the sound alerts on and off on my spreadsheet. Ideally I'd like a button that either changed an image to the speaker image when on and the speaker image with line through it when off. Is that possible?
If not, is it possible to have a button that just says: "Sound:ON" or "Sound:OFF"?
I guess it could be done with tick boxes, or drop down options.
I have the code below for creating a stopwatch in excel. I was trying to see if there is a way to change this code to assign it to a toggle button so if you hit one part the stopwatch would start and then the other it would stop.

I wanted to know how do I keep a toggle button in the on(ture) position after I close the userform? How do I keep the toggle button off(false) positoin after I close the userform? In order words, once I run my macro again, I want it to remain in memory that my toggle button was in the on(true) or off(false)?
For example,I have an application that I am developing which involves some what-if analysis for some projects. There is a command button located on my worksheet. After the command button is clicked, I have include some toggle buttons on a userform for all of the various projects. If I assume that sine projects will not be used, I click the associated toggle buttons. This puts them in the on(true) position. After I close the userform and reclick the command button, my toggle buttons are all back in the off(false) position.
it's possible to use this macro code in a toggle to perform this action when it's true and when the toggle is click again it can undo it.
This macro does lookups and finds the max on sets of value when it is run and i was wondering if by clicking the button again it can undo what it placed in the cells.
I need a macro for button1. The name of button one is "on" when clicked I want it to put an "X" in A1 and then change the button name to "off" When clicked again I want it to delete the "X" in A1 and change the name back to "on". When clicked again it repeats the same process.
View 7 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to change the text on a toggle button in the code below? Basically I would like for the toggle button to begin with the word "START" on it and then when clicked changed to the word "STOP". Of course then when the user clicks on "STOP" it changes back to "START".
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a sheet in which I am using freeze panes to keep the header section always visible. I would like to be able to add a toggle button with a macro to the sheet to allow the user to turn the existing freeze panes on/off at will, without the need to navigate the menu bar itself. So far I have not been able to find any info on if/how this may be possible. If anyone has any experience controlling freeze panes via macros, etc.

Sheets("Operating Income Trending (LOC)").Select
For i = 53 To 2 Step -1
If Cells(7, i) = "" Then
Sheets("Operating Income Trending (LOC)").Columns(i).EntireColumn.Hidden = True

Next i

And when i tried to put it into a togglebutton like below:
Private Sub ToggleButton1_Click()
Select Case ToggleButton1.Caption
Case "Group"
Dim i As Integer
Sheets("Operating Income Trending (LOC)").Select

Then instead of hiding all the blank columns, it hides almost all the columns, leaving some that are supposed to hide. i could not figure out why as it worked fine as individual macro.
I have 15 toggle buttons that are each tied to a unique value. A toggle button identifies the value as either Active or Inactive. I then want to add a command button that will produce the product of all the Active toggle button values.
For very few togglebuttons I can use a code similar to the following (adjusting for the number of buttons)
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
If ToggleButton1.Value = False Then
Sheets ("CTG Calc").Range("e50 = Sheets("CTG Calc").Range("E47") * Sheets("CTG Calc").Range("E48)
Else
Sheets("CTG Calc").Range("E50) = Sheets("CTG Calc").Range("E47")
End If
End Sub
However, when I get more than just a couple togglebuttons it becomes very unwieldy to have multple If then statments for a True/False option for all 15 buttons. I know there is an easier way to do this with some kind of array function that will look at each toggle button separately anf if the togglebutton value is false will generate the product of all false togglebuttons and ignore the value of all true toggle buttons.
I have a userform with 70 toggle buttons, the buttons are arranged in 7 columns and 10 rows, hence I named each button c1r1 to c7r10.
The button captions will change, so I want to take the captions from cell contents: worsheet 'Buttons' and the range A1:A70
I can do this long hand...
c1r1.Caption = Sheets("Buttons").Range("A1")
c1r2.Caption = Sheets("Buttons").Range("A2")
.....
c1r10.Caption = Sheets("Buttons").Range("A10")
c2r1.Caption = Sheets("Buttons").Range("A11")
c2r2.Caption = Sheets("Buttons").Range("A12")
unitl I get to
c7r10.Caption = Sheets("Buttons").Range("A70")
I guess a loop would be better. Here's my code that does not work..
I was just going to insert word 'works' for now until I get the loop to work.
I'd also have to get a loop inside this loop, ie when the column number is 1, it needs to loop through the rows numbers, before it loops to column 2.
I guess I might be able to do that, but I fall at the first hurdle, I get Error 424, object required. I guess it does not like 'buttonaddress.caption'
Do I need to declare or dim 'buttonadress'?
buttoncoladdress = 1
buttonrowaddress = 1
Do Until buttoncoladdress = 7
buttonaddress = "c" & buttoncoladdress & "r" & buttonrowaddress
buttonaddress.Caption = "works"
buttoncoladdress = buttoncoladdress + 1
Loop
I dont like the way the toggle button looks. So i wanted to create a button that when pressed would recognized if row 19 was hidden or not hidden..
Then if it was already hidden it would unhide the row 19
or if it was not hidden it would hide the row 19 when clicked
Is this possible via a macro?
I've got a toggle button that is clicked to hide the score details (using a macro). I need this button to have some sort of password protection because only I should be able to see the score!
I've tried to use the '.protect .unprotect' function, but its not doing exactly what I want it to so Im not sure I even need it there!
Here is my code..
Option Explicit
Private Sub ToggleButton1_Click()
Sheet1.Unprotect
With Range("78:88").EntireRow
.Hidden = Not .Hidden
End With
Sheet1.Protect
End Sub
Is is possible to automatically place a toggle button on a user form by entering data in a cell?
In otherwords, if I type a number in cell A1, can that number be automatically put on the toggle button and placed on active userform?
When opening a workbook, I'd like to set a Toggle Button's value to TRUE. I already have code Workbook_Open() procedure which resides in the ThisWorkbook module. This Workbook_Open() procedure already does lots of other things. I would like to add code in Workbook_Open() that would set the Toggle Button's initial value (TRUE).
The code for the Toggle Button resides in one of the Sheet modules (not the ThisWorkbook module). I attempted to set this toggle button value using the following code (see row 10), but it does not pass the compiler due to not being a defined variable.
I would like to set the value of a toggle button when the userform is opened so that it coincides with the what columns are hidden on screen. Below is simple example which I have not tested or debugged. It was just what i was thinking.
VBA code
Sub Macro2()
'if col A is hidden
If Columns("A").EntireColumn.Hidden = True Then
'make hidecalcs toggle button true (sunken)
Userform1.HideCalcs.Value = True

I am creating a status board at work... Kinda like an In/out board.
I created a toggle button and using it as the persons named. I want them to be able to go to the excel sheet on our intranet. Be able to click their name (toggle button) and it change the off cell from red to white and the on cell from white to green. Then they can save the excel sheet and close out for the next person.
edit: I would also need it to go back once they click it when they leave.
I have created the active x button, but so far the only thing I can do is get the 1 cell it effects to say true/false.
I have a command button that hides rows based on zero value in Col B then a 2nd btn to unhide those rows. The challenge is that as I want this code for several workbooks that will have data of varying row lengths & not all the zero values will be in the exact same place for each workbook or each month. Having done a little research on the Board (& googled) I have not found an answer to my challenge. So I am sure someone will point me in the right direction -
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
BeginRow = 3
EndRow = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
ChkCol = 2
Range("B3:B" & EndRow).EntireRow.Hidden = True
For RowCnt = BeginRow To EndRow
If Cells(RowCnt, ChkCol).Value 0 Then
Cells(RowCnt, ChkCol).EntireRow.Hidden = False
End If
Next RowCnt
Range("A2").Activate................................
On creating a button to perform a macro, we are hiding columns.
Can the macro pick up that
If the columns E:J are hidden, then the text on the button to read 'Unhide'
If the columns E:J and unhidden, then text on the button to read 'Hide'
I am aware I can change what is written on the button via a macro, but can it see that the columns are hidden?
I have a macro and I want a button on the toolbar, once clicked on the button, I want the macro to run.
Is there any way to do this. If this can be done using add-ins, I doesn't know how to create a button for the same.
I have created a toolbar button to save a file as a specific name based on a cell value. The macro runs fine, but the button changes priority when the new file is saved.
i.e. the original file is called "quoting_tool" and the newly created file is called "quoting_tool_'B3'". However, the next time I click this button in the original file, it requests the new file as the home of the toolbar button. I have tried saving the original file after adding the button, but that doesn't work.
