I have a userform that has a lot of textboxes that are formatted as date fields. Some of them have a default value and are locked=true, enabled=false. For those ones I have a checkbox next to them so the user can unlock and enable the textbox if they so desired.
Well the checkboxes and textboxes have a similar naming scheme, but are not numeric (they are not CheckBox1, CheckBox2, etc). As an example they one grouping is Cust1RelExpUnlock (this is the checkbox) and Cust1RelExpDateBox (this is the textbox). The difference in their name is the last portion (Unlock or DateBox).
Now when the checkbox is selected the code I want looks something like this:
Code:
Private Sub Cust1RelExpUnlock_Click()UnlockDateBox Cust1RelExpUnlockEnd Sub
Where UnlockDateBox is the function I'm having difficulty with and is supposed to be generic enough to work on any grouping assuming my naming scheme is consistent.
Using a combination of the Left() and Len() functions I can get the unique aspects of the name. Then concatenate it with "DateBox" as required. However I'm getting type mismatch errors, or object required erros. I tried various combinations of Dim _____ As Object, As Control, As Textbox... with no success.
I'm getting the correct name as a string, how do I make it work so I can reference the textbox.enabled/.locked?
Code:
Private Sub UnlockDateBox(Ck)
Dim CkDate As Control 'Tried control, textbox, object
Set CkDate = ProjectInputForm.MultiPage1.Object ' tried just using ProjectInputForm, and Object
Dim CkName As String
i created a spreadsheet which, using vba, disallows sheet deletion (works a dream); problem since has been that i cannot delete any sheets in any workbook anymore, and even a completely empty unsaved spreadsheet will try to open the worksheet containing the original code...
i've tried the following: - deleted the workbook excel is trying to reference - ensured there are no macros in excel - ensured there is no vba code whatsoever - checked the defined names (nothing) - checked the vba objects - debugged the "delete sheet" (didn't work) - uninstalled all of office 2003, then cleaned registry, then reinstalled from scratch - all of the above again - searched about a zillion internet postings
Is it possible to make a textbox or combobox the reference of a formula in a cell? I know that you can just do this on VBA, but if possible I don't want to do that in this particular case.
Sub test() Dim rng, dest, c As Range Dim result As String Worksheets("sheet1").Activate Set rng = Range([a1], [a1].End(xlDown)) Set dest = Range("d1") result = "" For Each c In rng result = result & " " & c Next MsgBox result dest = result End Sub
the penultimate code statement "dest=result" does notwork the value of "result" is not entered in "dest" though no error comes up if I use "dest.value=result" it gives error "object required" If I use "range("d1")=result" it works.what is the theoretical mistake.
I have been trying to setfocus to any other object on my userform with absolutely no luck at all?
In the code below I open a dialog box to import a text file (with CommandButton1), if no file is selected the user is prompted, this works fine. However it leaves focus to the textbox and the user would have to click on some other object and re-enter the textbox to open the dialog box again.
In a workbook made in Excel 2003, I have the following for a UserForm:
Private Sub UserForm_Activate Me.Calendar1.Value = Date End Sub
I copied this workbook to a computer with Excel 2007 and it bombs out at "Date" It comes up with a compile error, "Can't find project or library"
In the references window (Tools, References) it has the "Missing: Ref Edit Control" checked and the location at the bottom of this window states "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice11REFEDIT.DLL".
The reference to Office11 is from the computer with Office 2003 as the computer with Office 2007 has Office12.
There is another "Ref Edit Control" in the References window and when I check it and browse to the Office12 folder, highlight REFEDIT.Dll and click on open and in the references window on OK it comes up with "Name conflicts with existing module, project or object library". I have tried to delete the "Missing: Ref Edit Control", change the priority and change the reference in the missing control to Office12 but all to no avail.
How can I change the reference to the Ref Edit Control from Office11 to Office12?
I was just trying to work around a problem with multiple UserForms in project. I have assigned Object variables oUserForm1 and oUserForm2 to represent UserForms of specific names.
VB: Dim oUserForm1 As Object Dim oUserForm2 As Object
Set oUserForm1 = VBA.UserForms.Add("Data" & CStr(X)) oUserForm1.Y = Y
[Code] .....
When oUserForm1 shows new data are inserted and another macro runs with a line to hide the opened UserForm. In my project manager this user form name is i.e. Data1 (for x = 1), but the syntax Data1.Hide returns error. After that line it ask me to close the TOP most modal UserForm.
But When I use Me.Hide all works well.
My question is: Does VBA not see the name of the userform ("Data1") because I have used the oUserForm1 variable to give it a focus to it?
I have a userform with 10 rows of data with 8 colums in each row... I am trying to figure out how to dynamically address the object names (ie Textboxes).
Short and simply let's say I have 10 Text boxes named textbox1, textbox2, textbox3, etc
I want to address them in a loop as follows
Private Sub Clear_Fields() Dim field As Object For x = 1 To 10 field = "textbox" & LTrim(Str(x)) field.Value = "1" Next x End Sub Obviously I'm missing something here as I get the error Object Variable or With Block Variable not set
In design mode on my UserForm, I have an object on top of all other objects (it's hidden until a button is clicked). That's how I designed it and it was working fine when I ran the form. Now, when I run the form and click the button, the object appears at the bottom below all other objects. I've tried closing Excel & re-opening it, setting the ZOrder in design mode and in the CommandButton code--nothing works. If I did do something to cause this--I have no idea what it was. I've been moving and re-sizing some objects, but not adjusting the ZOrder.
I know there is something I am missing here and I can't really find the solution I need in past threads. I have a macro that calls about three macros in a row, then once it has done those tasks, I want it to show a particular userform using the userform.show statement. However, when it comes to show the userform I get an error saying that it cannot find the specified object? This is quite frustrating and I think I fixed it in another part a while ago, but I can't remember how.
I have a code that runs when I open the workbook. It asks if this is a new quote, if it is it should then open userform1. The problem is that sometimes when I click yes I get a "Path/File access error" popup, and then a VBA error box with "Run-time error '75' Could not find the specified object".
When i debug, it highlights the line "userform1.show"
IF i end, and then run it from within VBA it will then run fine.
Sometimes when I open the workbook it will just crash excel, and when I reopen it, it runs fine.
Simple code -
Sub Workbook_Open()
answer = MsgBox("Is this a new quote?", vbYesNo) If answer = vbNo Then Else userform1.show
I have been working on large project using Excel VBA for several days. My code seems to be working correctly, but I have more to do and now, when I drag an object from the toolbox onto a UserForm, the object is not added to the list of objects on the form. If I go back to versions of the project that I was working on several days ago, there is no problem. If I run "Workbook Rebuilder", the objects that I have dragged onto the form are then added to the object list, but I still can't add new objects to forms from within the VBA editor. Is the project corrupted, or is there some other explanation, and are there any fixes? The code runs about 50 pages, and there are over 20 forms, so redoing from scratch is only a last resort option.
I'm trying to switch my vlookups to something more dynamic. I keep adding columns to the data sheet (sheet1 for these purposes) and so I have to go back and update all of the other sheets that use the vlookup. (I'll just give an example as sheet2 for these purposes)
So what I have currently: =VLOOKUP(A5,Data_All,4,FALSE) Basically the 'A' column in sheet2 has an integer value, and so the vlookup takes that integer and looks up on sheet1 which row corresponds to that integer and then returns that string value.
What I want: ='AO_Cat_' & 'A5'
Basically I have named every cell in sheet1 and the particular value that I want to pull is named "AO_Cat_%name" with the last part being the integer value. I don't know if that make sense or not. For example, on sheet2, A5 might be '16' and so the value that I want to pull is "AO_Cat_16"
If I were to do this from the VBA side of things, then it'd be a simple range("AO_Cat_" & id_number) where id_number was the lookup value. However, I'd prefer to have this directly as a worksheet formula for simplicity purposes.
I need to have a link to data in another file. The file will be in the same directory, however, the name of the file I need to link increments daily. I have a string being generated already with the name of the file I want to link to. I can easily add a cell reference to that string, but how do I use that string value in a link? Or - how do I use quick'n'easy VBA to snatch the required cell's data?
e.g. Required data is in the file "production 060723.xls", in sheet "Daily Production", in cell "E2". Current file has a string being generated in a cell: "\server1production dataproduction060723.xls"
The following day, the required data will be in a file called "production 060724.xls", same sheet, same cell. The current file's string data will also update to reflect the needed file. I know that similar questions have been asked here - but none that I saw in my search seemed quite what I need. Even if someone can direct me to the right thread, that would be great.
I'd like to check if a user supplied string is single cell reference. My problem is that the below code comes back as vallid if I enter a range like B2:B4.
Sub test2()
Dim UserAdd As String UserAdd = InputBox("Enter your address")
'check if valid: If ValidAddress(UserAdd) Then MsgBox ("it's valid!") Else MsgBox ("it ain't valid!") End If
I am running EXCEL 2007 on XP. What is the EXCEL cell formula to put in a cell (for example"E5") that will reference the "last" occurrence of a specific text string in column A (For example Chard ) but will show its corresponding column B content (for example its PH number 3.45) regardless of the number of data entries that will be inputted in the future for both column A and B.
A B C D E 1WINEPH 2Chard3.24 3Merlot3.36 4Cab 3.44 5Merlot3.38 xxx 6Chard3.26 7Chard3.45 8Cab 3.41 9 Merlot3.33 10
If Worksheets("RawData"). Cells(1, nColumn).Value = Worksheets("RawData").Cells(12, 16).Value Then ..do code (I know the cell location of interest at this point) End If
Then I End up needing To Do something Like the following ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).XValues = _ Worksheets("RawData").Range("L1:N1")
“L1:N1” above is a sample. Given the code above it I have the cell location in question but it is in the format such as .Cells(12,16). That doesn’t do me much good when range wants something like “L1”. I don’t know how to convert that (12,16) to a L16 for example.
I have a program that creates a userform, but it cannot complete the initialization. The initializer calls the sub below, supplying the relevant worksheet, category header, and combobox tag for the form. So far, it will find the header of interest on the worksheet. I want it to load all the cell data in the target header column into the form's combobox. The sub, however, has an issue with the line highlighted in red. I think it has to do with the way the combobox tag is referenced in the line, but I don't know how to fix it.
I'm building a UserForm that has several TextBoxes to gather basic project information to fill in the header of a report. The first TextBox is the Job #... I'm trying to implement code for an "Auto Fill" button (based on working VBA code from another workbook) that will fill the other TextBoxes in the UserForm... The working VBA code from the other workbook does "Auto Fill" for Worksheet Ranges, not UserForm TextBoxes. How should I reference the UserForm Textboxes in the code to specify their value?
Workbooks("Template Generator.xls").Forms("ProjectInfo").Activate If TextBox("InptJobNum").Text = "" Then MsgBox "Please Insert Job Number" TextBox("InptJobNum").Select Exit Sub Else Jnum = TextBox("InptJobNum") 'Specify Job Number Workbooks("Job Log.xls").Sheets("Job Log").Activate End If If WorksheetFunction. CountIf(Range("A2:A1000"), Jnum) = 0 Then Workbooks("Template Generator.xls").Forms("ProjectInfo").Activate MsgBox "Invalid Job Number, or cannot be located... Please correct and try again" TextBox("InptJobNum").Select Exit Sub End If
Is there a way i can use a userform Textbox labeled jobNum1 in vba code with a counter "ctr" something like jobNum(ctr) = 5. I basically have multiple jobNum textboxes labeled jobNum1, jobNum2, jobNum3.....etc and would like to repeat the code for each counter until reaching 5. Take the following sub:
I've have a combobox on a userform which should refer to a cell on a worksheet directly. E.g. The dropdown list that feeds to box is on Sheet2 range C1:C6 Whatever is selected should be copied to Sheet1 cell B18.
Now, if I populate cell B18 manually, it will pick it up, but if I then change the combobox selection, cell B18 either doesn't change or goes blank.?
I have a userform in wb "A" that I key data into. When I hit the 'submit' button I need the data to go to wb "b", ws "data" and go to cells in columns "CA-CK". All that I can do, when the data goes to wb "b" it need to load to the row that has the same date as the date I enter in textbox1 on the userform. The date column in wb "b" is column BX.
I have a userform with fields (TextBoxes) Num1, Num2, Num3, Num5 and Num5
I also have an array which i have looped through and seeded with five values.
Now when I try and loop again and pass the values from the array to each of the textboxes I cant remember the syntax to reference the textbox using the loop variable - Num(var). I've experimented with the & symbol but it escapes me at the moment !
I have a fairly big excel spreadsheet with about 2 userforms at the moment. One Userform (the main one) has a multipage control with about 12 pages. Now here is the weird part. I open up the excel document and this main user form loads up simply with this code
Sub Auto_Open() Load Userform1 Userform1.show End Sub
This works fine the form loads. Now on this form there is a multipage control with about 12 pages as mentioned above. Now everything works the way I want it to eg the text boxes, combo boxes, command buttons etc all work and link with the worksheets fine just the way they should...But if I reference or try to use a couple of the controls in any way excel crashes. It doesn't give any errors or anything it just crashes and then I get a prompt saying do you want to send the error report blah blah. I have narrowed it down to 3 command buttons and 1 combo box so far that this happens on. If I do the most basic of commands on any of these controls such as something as simple as msgbox problemcombobox.visible...
