Qn: Userform Design - Considerations Or Limits?
Apr 16, 2009I am in the midst of developing a Userform with a purpose of entering/retreiving and amending data. A rough approximate of about 50 sets of 3 text boxes is required for user to type in data. Is there a kind of limit or performance issues if there are so many text boxes available? What other ways would make it work? Would appreciate some advice from the veterans in this field.

Userform In Taskbar With Custom Icon?
Apr 15, 2012I was wondering if this code is supposed to make the icon on the taskbar change to the custom icon as well?
If not, what would need to be added or changed to make it so?
It changes the Userform Icon without issue and adds the userform to the taskbar, but it is not updating the icon on the taskbar.

Show UserForm Before Printing For Custom View Choice
Apr 9, 2008When I click the excel printing icon, I want a userform to pop up in which I make the choice for a certain customview that I build. This customview must then be printout. Note that I want to use the standard Excel print icon, not a custommade one in the worksheet. I figured out some code, but it doesn't work. For instance my if structure returns "false" even if I did click that commandbutton, see the code below.
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
Static PrintRequest As Boolean
formMyview.Show
If formMyview.CmdCancel= True Then
MsgBox "printrequest canceled"
Unload Me
cancel=True
Exit Sub
End If
If PrintRequest = True Then
Exit Sub
End If

Password For Custom Userform Login Only Works With Text Passwords?
Mar 21, 2014Im using the following code on a User login userform. This code is for the Login command button to access the workbook (the user clicks on it after entering there username and password).
For some reason if the password is numbers only it just returns message box "Incorrect password, try again."
As soon as I put a single letter into the password it works fine,

Can One Item Be Made To Stand Out In Dropdown List Combobox On Custom Userform?
Oct 12, 2013I have a list of employees that can be assigned to tasks, the list is large enough that I cannot remember who is assigned to what.
All the employees assigned major tasks are automatically filtered out but these are employees with administrative tasks that should only be assigned as a last resort. I would like to assign the employees with administrative tasks a gray, italic, strike-out or some other font to indicate that they are different.
I assume this is done during the Add Item process...

View 2 Replies View RelatedWorksheet Design
Jul 28, 2006I've been reading some threads lately about worksheet design and wanted you advice on something.
I have a worksheet that is about 7.5mb. The details of the worksheet are:
A. 19 total worksheets within workbook, three are visible
B. 1 master worksheet (raw data) that is updated monthly
C. There are 13 worksheets (for each outer office) that pull data from the master.
D. A couple of "Summary" sheets that summarize totals, profits, losses for each area
Situation is this....All code runs fine, but when it's time to save the worksheet it is kind of slow doing so b/c of size.
Would you suggest making a seperate WORKBOOK for the outer offices? I gave this a try yesterday and it worked fine, but I also added code to save once the data was extracted and that part took about 5-6 seconds (I know that's not horrible, but I'm comparing it to previous times).
To Design A Production Spreadsheet
Dec 17, 2009I am going to attempt to design a production spreadsheet which does the following:
1.Orders are put on one page of the spreadsheet (Order Tab) The order is put on listing, Customer, Sizes, Qty etc
2.The user is then able to select an order and if possible I would like a pop up calendar to appear in which the user can then select a production date.
3.One the production date has been selected I want it to open up a new tab if one doesn’t already exist and then cut the information from the order tab and then paste it into the production day.
I have provided a spreadsheet of what I want to achieve but I am unsure if this is possible.
Stuck In Design Mode?

Feb 15, 2014I'm trying to make a converter between about 8 various types of values. These are not units like Km or miles or something like that, but rather numbers that represent a specific "hardness value" on a variety of scales (to name a few: HRC, HRA, K)
What I've been doing so far is plotting the two types against eachother and then getting the best trendline I can so that I can use that formula to convert between the two with relative certainty. (for example, when plotting HV vs HRC my fourth order polynomial trendline with an Rsquared of 1 is y=0.0001x4 - 0.0188x3 + 1.0768x2 - 20.709x + 350.69)
My questions comes up where I was hoping to make a window or box of some sort allowing the user to input a numeric value, then selecting the Input units and the hopeful output calculated units, and have the box spit back to the user the conversion.

Nov 5, 2008I have a production report card spreadsheet with numerous checkboxes. Originally I also had text boxes for user input - which I have since removed all of and simply unlocked cells for user input (I protect the spreadsheet). My problem is that now that I have removed ALL of the textboxes - I get the error message "Can't exit design mode because Control 'TextBox3' can not be created." everytime I go to lock the spreadsheet after tweeking or upon opening of the file. I also cannot use the checkboxes now because I am stuck in design mode.
Any thoughts on what might be causing this...or better yet...how to stop the error msg altogether? I googled and no answers...some theories that it was a bug with excel2003...but I find it hard to believe as I found posts for the same message of users of WORD2003...so I am thinking it might be VBA related?
Enter Spreadsheet In Design Mode
Jun 11, 2009I've created a spreadsheet that has a number of command buttons acting as hyperlinks navigating to other worksheets within the workbook and other files.

For ease of use I wanted to avoid training people on how to go into design mode, anyone aware of a work around?

2. Rooms are broken in 4 categories ( up-to 12 mths old "Baby room" 12 mths to 2 yrs "Wobblers room" 2-4 yrs "Toddlers room and finaly Playschool,)
3.So far what i have done is this =IF(G2<$A$1,"",IF(G2<$A$1039,"Baby",IF(G2<$A$1404,"Wobbler", IF(G2<$A$1770,"Toddler",IF(G2<$A$2290,"Playschool",
which gives me a room from inputting the Date of Birth.
4. ive then used the form button to give me the option to add edit and delete entries from the headings (First name Last name Date of Birth Room -but this will show once DOB is entered.
5. i have tried to run the =COUNTIF(A2:A7,"Baby") to try and get the total baby spaces taken up at a given date however this wont work for me and isnt giving any error message, just a blank cell.
Macros Are Running In Design Mode?
Apr 8, 2012I have been writing VBA code in Excel for about 4 years, but I am self-taught, so I only know what I have had to learn. Recently, I learned that I could run a macro from a cell formula. I created several hundred cells (on multiple worksheets) that include calls to various macros. I only want to run these when I know they need to be updated, not every time I change a cell value.
I turn on Design Mode and try to modify my worksheet (adding or removing columns, rearranging stuff) and some macro(s), somewhere(?) execute every time. This can sometimes take 15-20 seconds for everything to update.
Did I hit some magic key sequence, somewhere? How is it that some of my macros, somewhere are running with Design Mode enabled (and turning it OFF, by the way)?
Design Around Linking 2 Shared Worksheets
Mar 21, 2007The spreadsheet I have designed is to be input offshore by one group, and the values that get put in this shared workbook will feed into another shared workbook (for reference and ease, I will call one offshore. book and the other uk.book).
It seems that I have to save the offshore.book (so could I use some autosave code, for every 5mins or so? I dont have the plugin so would have to write it in), then hit update links in the uk.book (again, I presume I could write this so it triggers off every 30mins or so, but can be done manually if required). It seems abit fiddly doing this, but this is the way they wanted it done (my idea was to put into a database, but got out voted).
The figures in the uk.book would simply be a vlookup. However, we do not want the uk team to be able to look at the other book so would the links still work properly? (ie there would only be one open workbook at a time - direct access to each others spreadsheets shouldnt occur.)

View 8 Replies View RelatedExcel 2007 :: Will Not Enter Design Mode?
Mar 17, 2014I am a happy user of Office 2007 and a casual coder. I am familiar with most of the basics of coding and enabling macos. However today, when I attempted to add some code to a workbook, I noticed that Excel would not actually enter design mode. Even though the design mode button will toggle and stay in the "on" mode, I cannot access VB property panel for any controls, even standard contols. Also, I am forced to CTRL-CLICK objects to select them and then am only presented with standard "Format Control" option, not object properties.
One other odd sympton... I can use the macro recorder to add code to a control (a checkbox for example), but when I try to manually add a line of code referencing that object (using the default name), the VB editor does not recognize the object. For example the IDE would not recognize and code a line for the "checked" property of a checkbox control when I check the box while in macro record mode.
These symptoms suggest to me that there is something wrong with the design mode "switch".
This all used to work fine, but it's been a while and many MS updates to my Windows 7/64 machine (now about 4 years old).
Function Design Return True Or False
Jul 27, 2009I'm trying to determine if a rangeName is defined so that I can delete it without a programming error. I've used the idea that if I try to goto a non-existant rangeName, I'll get an error. I've tried to design a function that will return true or false if the rangeName is defined on the basis of that idea. Can you take a look at the code and see where I went wrong?

View 3 Replies View RelatedQuery Design - Select Items Not In Array
Feb 11, 2013I need to query table contents where some general items are met, and item id's are not contained in an array.
Example:
Code:
SELECT LOOKUP.*, LOOKUP.Var FROM LOOKUP WHERE ((LOOKUP.Name)="test" Or (LOOKUP.Name)="test2" AND ((LOOKUP.Type)=3) AND ((LOOKUP.Var) ("array", "of", "items")))
I need to know how to add an array to a query since I can't hard-code the list each time, and the array can be a different size each time, so using array variables doesn't make sense here.
To Design A Spreadsheet To Allocate An Amount To Different Bands
Feb 9, 2009I'm trying to design a spreadsheet to allocate an amount to different bands.
For example - I have the figure 1750.
Band 1 : 0-500 (1)
Band 2 : 501-1000 (0.8)
Band 3 : 1001-1500 (0.6)
Band 4 : 1501-2000 (0.4)
Each unit in each band has a value (in brackets). So as you can see, the value of a full Band 1 would be 500. But the next band is only worth 400 when full, and Band 3 is only worth 300. I want band 1 to fill up first, then band 2, then band 3, then finally band 4.
I would like to be able to allocate the figure 1750 to all the bands automatically - starting with band 1, then 2, then 3, then 4.
Design Spreadsheet In 2007 For Use On Earlier Versions
Jul 17, 2009Compatibility mode, in 2007, is frustrating me like crazy. I thought it was supposed to 'limit' functionality to what was in 2003. But what it seems to be doing is letting me use features that only work in 2007and then tell me when I save that 'hey, these won't work after you save'. Ugh! I can't even pick a highlight color without getting a warning and wondering what it will look like to 2003 users!
Is there a 'theme' or anything that will truly limit the features I use to those available to 2003 users?
Interface Design: Drop Down List Sources
Jun 4, 2006I am working on a workbook that contains drop-downs in various cells. The source for these drop downs are several Named Ranges on a tab named 'Drop Downs'.
I am locking the whole spreadsheet down so that people are not messing with the format, etc. (which is the current problem). So I don't allow people to add/delete rows, etc.
I am trying to think of a good interface to allow users to modify the entries in each drop down list (i.e. they may need to add a person to the "Resources" Range which feeds into a drop-down box elsewhere).
So, people should be able to add/delete items. I was thinking I would put a little 'X' next to each entry, such that when pressed - it would delete the corresponding entry. (Using the Assign Macro on a Text Box). However, I have to assign each 'X' a method to call - and I can't pass in an argument - so if I assign them all the same macro name - I won't be able to figure out which one was pushed. And the number of 'X' will be dynamic, so I can't hard code a bunch of functions. I don't really have a good idea for allowing additions yet (other than a button that prompts for the name and then adds it in).
I guess I could just use a Form that allows editing of the data (that would be easy and powerful to do), but I don't really want to do that - I want it to be editable within the excel spreadsheet itself.
