Userform - Importing Information From Spreadsheet Into Form
Sep 20, 2013
I have a userform that will be a 'work order' for repairs. The ladies in the office can fill out all the blanks that will be entered into the spreadsheet. Each time someone is done, it will plug the information on the next available row on the spreadsheet. Easy enough.
What I need is putting a 'work order number' on the form. I have put numbers (101, 102, 103...) in Column A on the spreadsheet. I would like the form to pull the next available number and put it at the top of the Userform. I want this number to be 'locked' in so the ladies can't change it.
My goal - when the ladies are filling out the form, they can see what 'work order number' has been assigned and can give this number to the maintenance.
I have a large spreadsheet (1000-plus entries) that all have about 10 or 15 columns of information (product title, product number, etc).
I also made a form that I want to use as a master form, where all the titles will not change.
What I am wanting to do is, by going off the product number, when you click it, this pre-made master form will pop up, and all the information that was located on the large spreadsheet for this product number will be inserted where it is designated to be on the master form.
While I could probably do something like this through Access, we need to keep it on Excel, and in the same workbook so that it will automatically update things once I put a new number or input onto the large spreadsheet.
I am trying to do is create and link and user form to put information into a spreadsheet. Layout of the form is done but I'm not sure how to link the cells. Also, there are some cells pre-filled that should show up on the form but I don't want the user to change those (columns a,b,c - guessing i will protect those).
Would be great if the user could navigate rows within the form so I included buttons for previous and next entries (this feature would be very similar to the built-in data form that excel provides). My sample spreadsheet is attached.
I have created a userform but just unsure how to format the code in order to get information to appear in a spreadsheet http://www.srfl.ca/userform.htm
I have a text box in a user form that when the information is added and the command button is clicked I would like that information to go to this workbook, which is in a different location.
H:Burney TableMaterial That Needs AddedMaterial to be added.xls
I need the in formation to stay in Column A starting in Row 2.
The next time info is entered into the text box and the command button is clicked i need the information to go to the next empty row in the workbook
I need to create a form that if you were to enter a name in the text box it would fill all the information across that row into other boxes on the form. Basicly if I type John Doe in the text box it would look in col A for John Doe and then put whats in the cells on that row into different boxes on my form. I have tried searching but I have had no luck. Im very new to forms so this is a great experience.
I am building a service for a company using software provided. The software provided will export the information into an excel sheet.
I am creating an A/B testing for 2 different areas of the site. I will be doing a daily/weekly and monthly figure reading. There will be 2 excel sheets, daily/weekly and monthly. I will need to put them into 1.
I want to somehow, import these 2 excel sheets so it automatically pulls the information I require into the relevant cells.
From there, I will create a percentage of what. Is this possible to do via excel or will I require other software to happen?
I need to write a macro that will import data contained in another spreadsheet, but am unsure how to do this. I have several (about 15) spreadsheets that contain data. I need to import key bits of this data into one central spreadsheet that will be used for reporting purposes. I only need 2 cells worth (values) from each source spreadsheet, to be pasted into the destination spreadsheet, into designated cells.
The source spreadsheets are usually closed down and kept on a file server, which my PC has access to. Ideally I want to activate this macro with a control button - i.e. I press the button once and the macro goes off and collects/updates each field with the latest data stored in each of the source spreadsheets.
I'm having trouble trying to come up with a way to insert data fields into a spreadsheet form. I have a travel authorization form that I would like to have automatically fill in the required fields based on typing in a name. i.e. I would type in an employees name, and it would automatically fill-in the correct address, etc for that employee. I have attached a spreadsheet that contains one sheet as the form, and another sheet containing the employee data. I know nothing about VBA, but I have a feeling that is where I need to go.
I have created a userform that allows input of information and then deposits the information on a specific sheet. I am looking for a way to have that information not only deposited on the specific sheet it is already set to but also to another sheet based on a selection made from a combo box.
I'm missing something in my UserForm initialization code. If I fill the form out once and click 'OK' (run the code to put the form data into a sheet), when I go back into the form all the old info is still there. If I then click 'Cancel' (Unload Me) and reopen the form, the old data is cleared out. What am I missing to make it clear it out the first time?
We (the board members of an ultimate frisbee team) have an debt workbook that we would like to dispurse amongst our team members as easy as possible. The thing is that we'd like to limit what they are seeing without having to edit the xls-file, only certain columns etc. Ignorance is bliss so to speak.
So my thought was to have some sort of function that exports data on the fly from the excel book to a html / asp / php / xml (or likewise) page everytime a member would access that page. This would give our treasure (as if..) master a lot less work and make it much easier for our members to check their debt. The workbook itself has a couple of worksheets and the ideal would be for us not to split these into seperate workbooks. Is this doable? I read about web queries, but they seem to be directed the other way, from html to xls.
What I am trying to do is to automate a copy-and-paste situation for literally a few thousand items. I am creating .xml files for a scenery builder library for MS Flight Simulator, and unfortunately there isn't an application specifically for FS scenery that will import the data I have and export it into the format I need. In other words, I need to create a form in Excel into which I can automate the importation of data from text files (such as in the first example below) to populate fields (as in the second example), and later create a new text file from the compiled data.
This is an example of the format of the data I need to import:

I have been tasked with streamlining a process to collect data from a specific online website (Web of Science) and import it into an Excel 2010 spreadsheet.
Currently they are going to the website, entering a short number of search parameters and then manually recording the pertinent data from the webpage. They would like to be able to enter a keyword in Excel (which acts as the search item) which then automatically does the rest of the process and provides them with a spreadsheet of the required data.
Is this possible? Perhaps by using Visual Basic code within Excel? I also saw a method that employed SharePoint Server 2010.
I would like to use a vba procedure/procedures to achieve the following: I have a folder with many Word2003 forms in and I want to save just the data from each form and then import the data into an Excel spreadsheet.
Currently I am opening each .doc file in turn, saving just the data to a new plain text (comma separated file) in a different folder and am unable code searching that folder for all the text files and importing them into the spreadsheet. I have a two part question to my current approach:
1) I am 99% there with the first part (opening and converting the forms) with the following code having followed advice from another thread but I need Word open and not showing an open document. Is it possible to add code to take care of opening Word in the background and close it again after so the process is fully automated?:
This challenge may be better handled in Access or a true database but the person making the request only uses Excel.
1. Create a form that will accept names, dates, and grades.
2. Store the information on a separate worksheet so that it's being accumulated and reports can be ran from it.
I'm aware of Excel's automatic form but it doesn't allow for validation.
Example: some score ranges are 0-5 others are 0-15. We can't allow for a 12 to be put in where the max is 5.
I know how to do the validation. The big challenge now is telling Excel: I've completed entering this record. Now clear, and start a new record on the next row?
Our company has word template with userform that has 10 or so inputs. The data will have already been input into an excel file. Rather than manually retyping the data again, I'd like the option to import the data. Due to the data be specific to a given project I need the import function to ask user to select which excel file to import from. Additional there will be system parameters for multiple systems that will be on subsequent tabs of the same excel file. These system parameters aren't currently part of a userform. I'd like the option to import this data but rather than selecting a file only the user would also need to pick a specific sheet.
i have this spreadsheet that has 2 tabs titled "master" and "unique". "master" has a list of ingredients (8 each), a number associated with it and a store number associated with it. for example (basil-136-r5). now, each store number has a different number associated to the ingredient. for example (basil-136-r5, basil-235-r6). on the "unique" tab/spreadsheet, im supposed to create a formula that calculates the number of times (ex: basil) is used and what number is associated with it to the store number. here is a pic:
Hi folks, I got great help just now on the first part of this project and am hoping to get lucky again. I attached a workbook. This is traffic count data. I need help pulling information from spreadsheet named HourTotals.
The data is in cells H2:AE366, it is 24 hours wide by 360 days long. I need to search that range for the highest number and in addition to the number get the corresponding date from the date_ column and the hour from the corresponding hr_X column and paste that information into another spreadsheet and repeat that process for say 500 values.
I have a spreadsheet here that collect information through vb, now when the first agent is done with the information needed and click on the save command button the information is saved in the spreadsheet.
For example:
A | B | C | D | E 1 Date | Name | Birthdate | Gender | Age 2 11/20/11 | Greg White | 04/12/1977 | Male | 34 3 11/20/11 | Greg Blue | 04/12/1977 | Male | 34 4 11/20/11 | Greg Green | 04/12/1977 | Male | 34 5 11/20/11 | Greg Black | 04/12/1977 | Male | 34
Now theres no problem with this instance.... the problem arise when the second agent do the same thing..... when i check the spreadsheet the information was overwritten.
What really should be happening is that when the first agent click the save command button the spreadsheet will be saved so that when the next agent click the save button it will go to the next line.
Another thing that i noticed, since the spreadsheet is shared through the network, it takes time before the information is saved.
1. When Save button is clicked the spreadsheet will be saved. 2. A code (if there is any) to speed up the saving of shared excel file.
I use a spreadsheet (FY-2012) to track approx 700 work requests. I enter the work request number (name of the spreadsheet) in column A, which is hyperlinked to the actual work request spreadsheet. I would like to automatically fill in this cell with the information entered in cell J42 of the work request entered in column A. Cell A5 of the tracker "FY-2012" indicates Work Request "BB-12003". Cell D5 of the tracker "FY-2012" indicates the completion date. I would like to extract the completion date entered in cell "J42" of Work Request "BB-12003" and have it automatically fill in Cell D5 of the tracker "FY-2012".
I am new to Excel VBA and am trying to create a macro that will draw information from a spreadsheet. The code i have written so far is shown below:
Sub Event1() 'Dim Event Date As Double Dim Message As String Dim Ans As String
' Prompt for Data
[Code] ......
The section i am having issues with is shown in red above.
What i am trying to do is have a message box pop up with the information as shown based on a date being typed into the the original box that pops up (Please enter a date and click on OK). The following message box then displays the required information from the spreadsheet.
My problem is I cannot copy from a Form Control drop down box, and I need to do this for ~10 drop down boxes in about 200 xls files. The files follow a template so the drop down button Inputs are uniform. Here is some more detail:
I’m building an Access Database so that our data (currently in many, many Excel Spreadsheets) can be efficiently queried. The old system was that when asset data was collected, the data would be entered into an Excel spreadsheet, using a Template. So for example:
Project A1234
Name Main Street Pipe High Street Pipe
Ref No. 12345 12346
Installation date 22/08/13 19/07/12
X Coordinate 55667 99212
Y Coordinate 77889 12364
We have hundreds of these files, but I managed to get all the files in one folder and Paste and Transpose the data from the relevant Cell Ranges in each file (using a VB sub) into ONE summary sheet. Success; or so I thought.
Unfortunately for one generation of the template (people changed them slightly every year), the template had people enter information into Drop Down Menus. Not a problem when they’re associated with a cell, but these were free floating Form Controls.. so you can’t actually click and copy from them, or call them in VB as you would a specific cell.. afaik.
So my issue is how can I extract the data from those Form Buttons? I’ll try and provide as much info as I can:
Firstly I tried to find some sort of identifier for each Form Button. The dropdowns are called Combo Boxes, (Developer tab > Insert > Combo Box (Form Control) ), and when you select them (by right clicking) and hit the View Code button in Developer Tab > Controls the following shows up in VB.
Sub DropDown44_Change()
End Sub
I’m guessing that the number is related to the button so that’s one useful thing, an identifier of sorts. There’s no actual code there though really from what I can see.. My problem is I have no idea how to extract from DropDown44!
The range of values in the drop down comes from a separate sheet where there’s just a list of the values. There aren’t any cells linked to the drop downs though. If I enter a cell in (Right Click) Format Control > Cell link: then it prints the number (e.g. 4) of the value in the range. So if the drop down options are “Monday”, “Tuesday”, “Wednesday”, “Thursday” and “Thursday” is selected, the linked cell says: “4”.
They didn’t link a cell, then I could call that cell in a VB sub and the job would be done. Unfortunately they didn’t, so I tried Recording a Macro and selecting the drop down form control.. That didn’t really work, except if I right clicked it, I got some more info from the macro VB:
ActiveSheet.Shapes.Range(Array("Drop Down 19")).Select
So is my drop down an Array? My understanding of an Array is that it’s a list of arguments.. all I get there is the name of the button. I am not experienced in VB so this is as far as I’ve got. Perhaps I can get a sub to select the button using the above line, but I need the info from it, i.e. which value is currently selected in the Drop Down.
(Using Excel 2010 but the .xls files are from ~2005)
I have a main spreadsheet that I am consistenty adding information to. The columns are : Company name, Contact, Territory, and Status. The main spreadsheet is titled "Main". I want 5 additional spreadsheets in the same workbook that are automatically pulling information from the "Main" spreadsheet, and populating the appropriate spreadsheet . For example...I have 500 entries of different companies in "Main". All of these companies are either categorized as "North, South, East, West, Offshore" in the Territory column. So, I would like my workbook to have 6 tabs...one "Main, North, South, East, West, Offshore." As of right now, I am Sorting the column, then copy and pasting into correct spreadsheet manually.
I am creating a spreadsheet to track customers contact information and purchase history.
A B C D 1 First Name Last Name Phone Number Etc. 2 Mike Jones 3
I wanted to know if theres a way to click on a customer (say Mike Jones) and be able to enter and view purchase history information relating to that customer in either a drop down box or different sheet?
ex. Mike Jones Date Item Spent Last Contacted 4/24 Toy $500 4/31 5/16 Movie $15 5/20
How do I save an excel sheet as a fillable form with only certain cells allowable to be filled and than after the form is filled and the automatic calculations(formulas) are done can I save each form seperately.
This is like a student report card.
You will enter students name and his grades and the form will do calculations than i want to save each completed form as its own file
I have two groups of option buttons. One group has 15 option buttons the other has 2 option buttons. When I click on one group it deselects the option button in the other group causing no buttons to be selected in the second group.
In other word only one of the 17 buttons is shown selected at a time.
By "selected" I mean the filled in circle is shown within the larger circle.
The two groups of buttons are linked to different cells in the spreadsheet.
How do I keep the two groups from interaction with each other?
When I put form controls onto a spread sheet is there anywhere I can easily see and access its properties? Format Control is lacking many values and I do not see them in the vba project toolbar. I am trying to get checkbox locations and checkbox numbers if possible. If there isn't an easy place to see these is it still possible to get the checkbox locations in VBA?
Im looking to use a user form to populate a quotation template, I have been able to link the first part of the form to the sheet as these are static cells but Im struggling in getting the items details area of the form to work as I need. Below is a brief description what I need.
Item Details area
Move down a line after every time the add button is pressed and clear contents of the text boxes for the next item.
Also I want to make each * denoted item required before you can add a new item
Ive uploaded a copy of the file if my description isnt too clear
