Use Variable As Default Value For Text Box / Spin Button
Oct 3, 2007
to plug a variable (integer) into a text box / spin button as its default value.
I have a sheet set up for data entry where 1 row = 1 record = 1 page (of data arranged to print on a form supplied by an outside company). This data is then arranged on the second sheet (up to a maximum of 30).
If there are there are 15 records entered on the spreadsheet on a given day I am trying to use:
LastNum = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(Range("G7:G37")) + 4
Where LastNum is the number of rows / entrys that have been typed into the first sheet and that will be printed by default.
how to get that variable into the text box / spin button control.
I have 6 text boxes on 5 different tabs all with their own spin button that will push the number up or down, starting from the default value. How do i lock/restrict the text box entry so, the spin button is the only way of changing the value?
I'm using a form to display records based on a value YSNumber using this
Set tbl = Sheet1.Range("A:A") Set fnd = tbl.Find(What:=cbo_YSNumber.Value, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:= _ xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False _ , SearchFormat:=False) fnd.Activate Then I display reccord data by populating labels like this:
Label_RequestInstructionID.Caption = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 3) Label_SchemeTitle.Caption = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 4) Label_PMO.Caption = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 5) I'd like to use the spin button to allow the user to cycle up or down the records.
I don't know much about VBA, but I am sort of working my way through. I have inserted a spin button in an excel sheet and assigned it to the following code in a module:
Sub SpinbuttonD4() Range("D4").Value = Range("D4").Value + 0.01 End Sub
So, now when I click the spin button (either the up arrow or the down arrow), the value in D4 increases by 0.01.
What I actually want to do, however, is for the value in D4 to increase by 0.01 when I click the up arrow, and decrease by 0.01 when I click the down arrow.
can i link a spin button to a toggle button such that when i click my togglebutton On then the Spin Button causes the Value in a cell to increment from 0.1.2.3.4.5 and when i click the toggle button off then value decrements from 5.4.3.2.1.0
The issue I'm having is with the ActiveX Spin Button (in 2007, formerly in the Control toolbox in 2003). I need the Spin Button to call a certain macro whenever it is clicked up or down. I know how to do this with one spin button, the problem is that the workbook I'm creating could potentially have dozens (or even hundreds) of these spin buttons that all need to call the same macro. It doesn't seem feasible to have to create separate Change event functions for each of these.
My company used to use the simpler form controls for this process, but a situation has come up where we need the ability to make the buttons invisible, or at least appear disabled, and that doesn't seem doable with the form controls.
So my question is, is there a way to specify in my workbook that whenever a spin button is clicked, this particular macro is to be called? Or even, whenever an ActiveX object is clicked, call the macro, because the spin buttons will be the only ActiveX objects in the workbook. I've read a bit about how to create global event handlers for worksheets and workbooks, but I can't find anything related to spin buttons specifically.
I need some help using the spinner tool (the 2 way arrows) as a macro. I want it to point to different cells after each press. So, basically:
Click down once, go to cell A5 Click down again, now go to cell A6 Click down again, now go to cell A7 Clicking down again won't do anything, A7 is the end of the road
And the same thing backwards when clicking up.
I use the two commands SpinButton1_SpinDown() and SpinButton1_SpinUp(). I put the Range("A5").Select, etc. as the code. I don't know how to do the incremental part. I need a counter in there...
I have an excel sheet with numerous columns/rows of data. I want to be able to adjust multiple active cells simultaneously using either a Button or Spin Button.
Adjusting a single cell is not trivial, but it is adjusting multiple active cells (range of which can/will change) that I have reached my dilemma.
Here is what I'm using to adjust a single active cell with a Spin Button:
[Code] ......
Is using multiple (user chosen) active cells even possible?
Im creating a form with a spin box option - however when i run it in test I always get a black border around the arrows. Its anoying because I want to make the spinbox small and it overtakes the arrows. I looked everywhere in the properties but can't find where to turn it off. I saw the arrorw and background color but nothing about the border.
On the attached example i have a button on sheet1 which opens a form. On this form i have four pages of a multi-page control and below it i have a spin button. What i want is for when the spin button is pressed to the right then the multi-page moves up to the next page and vice-versa for the left spin button. How do i write this code?
I want to using a spin button to update figures on a range of cells ranging from C3:AI95. Do I need to create one for every cell and link it to each one or is there a way of the spin button appearing when I select any of the cells to update.
Basically I have a range of issues across the rows on the top and the columns (B) are days of the month.
I'm working on a userform in excel 2003 and have hit a bit of a brick wall.
I have a listbox on a userform that shows only unique entries (customers) which are populated off sheet1 (called Names). On the sheet itself, there are customer entries repeated when there is more than one contact stored. I have the listbox working fine to show each customer only once.
My problems comes in here:
On the userform I have a textbox (this textbox in turn will determine specific contact details to be shown in other textboxes for the contact displayed) with a spinbutton that I want to show each contact for a customer (only showing one at a time and change made with spinbutton). I just can't get this to work properly...
What I want each one to do is to scroll through cell links.
For example, cell I4 has a lookup reference of "=LOOKUP(2^20,Sheet3!A:A)". What that does is get data from the very last line on sheet3 column A.
What I want the spin button to do is scroll through the lines in column A.
So if a user decided he/she did not want that data from column A, then all they would have to do is press up or down on the spin button, scrolling through other data that is in column A.
I've got a problem with the used spinbuttons. The code I used (see below)allows the user to choose a column (with the option button(A,B,C,D,E) in which changes would be made and than changes the value of the given cell according to the name of the spinbutton (which specifies the row). This forces me to use about 80 spinbuttons in a single sheet, and the whole workbook comprises of over 30 sheets pumping the whole file to a size of over 3 MB. To reduce the file size I need a code that would link a master spinbutton (one per sheet) to any active cell (the "just clicked one")
Private Sub sel(ByRef Column As String) For Each obj In Application.ActiveSheet. OLEObjects If obj.progID = "Forms.SpinButton.1" Then obj.LinkedCell = Column & (Val(Mid$(obj.Name, 11)) + 3) End If Next obj End Sub
I have a linked text box and spin button on a userform so the user can enter text or use the buttons and I'm having trouble barring non-integer inputs! Here's what I have so far:
I am having difficulty finding information on coding my spin button on a user form. I searched and haven't found any information. I need to do is code a spin button to increase or decrease by 1 each time it is clicked up or down. I would like it to populate to a text box on my form if that is possible.
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.
Is it possible to set the default page to open when clicking the file button? In particular, I use the recents feature a lot but never have I looked at the information on the information page. Everytime I click the file button I have to then select recents which is annoying.
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 !") [Code] .....
So in this example there are 4 option buttons and 1 command button. It is no different to the other 49 sheets
I am developing a form to get the user's name. I want to put some default text in the textbox where the user types their name. I want the form to delete the default text when the user clicks on the text box or after they start typing their name.
Attached is the form and code that runs the form : UserName.xlsm
I have a userform with numerous Textboxes and comboboxes for user input - however the end users aren't too PC savvy and I'm ending up capturing "Please Enter NameJohn Smith", "Please Enter Job TitleSales Manager" etc. My original Instructions told them to tab their way through the form, meaning each time they reached a TextBox their input would overwrite the ("Please Enter x") string prompting them for input.
Is there any way to replicate this "select all" on click (globally as there are potentially 50 to 100 textboxes and 12 varients of the form)?
Penfold Auto Merged Post;OK so I've made a little progress:
Private Sub UserForm_Click() TextBox1.SelStart = 0 TextBox1.SelLength = Len(TextBox1.Text) End Sub
The above selects all the text in a textbox - I think I need to apply this to the textbox "on click" - however that could be achieved? Then it needs to be generalised - ie:
I have a spreadsheet that tracks in column D "completed" projects. I want column T to populated "100%" when column D has the text "completed" in the cell. What is the formula?
I am trying to get a particular cell to have normal dimensions when not within that cell, but once opened, contains a default text preferably within a text box format/size.
