Is it all possible to address controls on a user form indirectly?
Thus instead of say
kv=me.textbox10.value
Could you do something like...
i=10
kfield="me.textbox" & format(i,"99") & ".value"
kv=evaluate(kfield)
I'm trying to skin an Excel VBA userform and all the controls on the form. I found a very good example that skins a userform via a class module. It doesn't however skin command buttons, text boxes etc. I imagine the techniques would be similar.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have created a userform that contains textboxes, option boxes, and comboboxes. I need to make sure that there are no unanswered fileds when the submit button is hit. Preferably Excel would check for empty fields in the userform when submit is pressed. If Excel finds that some fields are empty it would prompt the user to correct the problem before the userform would post the data to worksheet. My efforts so far have prompted the user to change the data, but still posts the data before the change is made. Basically the submit button keeps running through the code right after it prompts the user for the change.
If textbox1.value = Empty Then
msgbox("Please enter information into textbox1")
End If
With this the msgbox appears, but doesn't stop the submit button from posting the incompleted data.
I get a userform with inDays1,inDays2,inDays3.. until inDays10 textboxs, I would like to acces them in a for statement. I've try this, but it doesn't work,
For iNumber = 1 To 10
frmReservation.inDays(iNumber).Caption = whatever.Value
..

Next iNumber
I am attempting to write an Excel Macro that would allow me to Click on a particular row and have the fields in my form fill with the data in the columns of the row.
I am fairly new to Macros and VBA, but know that this has got to be a possibility.
I'm trying to call a function that is stored in a cell as a text string. In cell A1, I have the text Sum('Sheet1:Sheet3'!C3). I want to call this function from a different cell. Is this possible using the pre-defined functions, or would I be better creating my own function?
View 4 Replies View RelatedThis is a complete mystery to me. I have some code (reproduced below) that plays a .wav file when any of the values in a1:a9 changes from 0 to greater than 0. This code works when I manually change one of the values to a trigger number in any of the cells.
The problem is that the values in a1:a9 are really pointers to other cells. For example,
a1 is "=sum(D9:D20)"
So, when I d9:d20 chnages values such that a1 changes from 0 to 5, the sound doesn't play. To put it simply, if I type "5" in a1 the sound plays. If a1 = D1 and I type "5" in D1 the value in A1 changes to 5 but the sound doesn't play.
How do I modify this code such that any change in the value of A1:A9, no matter the source of that data change, triggers the playing of the sound? ......
I have a spread sheet in which some rows are grouped.
So I can see the + (or -) buttons on the side, and the 1 and 2 buttons on the top, to hide or show the separate grouped rows.
Now, depending on the value of a certain cell, I either want to show or hide the grouped rows.
So actually I want to control the +/- and 1/2 buttons indirectly.
Is this possible? Or should I do this by hiding rows instead of grouping them?
I want to do is copy data to my working sheet (say sheet-1) from other worksheetx (say sheet-2, sheet-3). That's easy enough, but I want to be able to indirectly address "sheet-2" or "sheet-3" from a cell in sheet-1.
Look at the attachment. The data under cost A, cost B, cost C is from other sheets in the same workbook. I want to able to type in "sheet-2" in the first column and Excel to automatically copy over the data in columns 2,3,4.
I do not want a VBA solution. I know this can be done with built-in Excel functions because I did it before. Unfortunately, I lost that spreadsheet and I can't recall how it was done. I tried using Indirect function, but it returns a ref# error.
I have a named block, used to sort a list of data. But I names the block one row higher to include the headers, so that inserts at the top row of the data would not fall out of the named range. Then I want to sort the data, but not include the header row.
What I want to say in the sort macro is something like:
cell_range( top_row(Data)-1, Bottom_Row(Data) )
Or, to have two names, with one defined in terms of the other:
Data_sort = Data_big - Toprow(Data_big)
From the Active Workbook how do I run these commands?
The syntax is way wrong, but will show what I'm after...
Code:
debug.Print Workbook("1990a.xls").Worksheets("Sheet1").cells(20, "A")
Workbook("1990a.xls").Worksheets("Sheet2").cells(20, "A")= "testing"
how does one alter a variable without referring to it directly? Eg. One has a combo box (CboPNum) with values from 1 to 20 and textboxes (TxtN1 to TxtN20). Upon selecting a value from the CboPNum dropdown, the background of the corresponding TextBox should be changed. I’ve tried to create something that joins the string “TxtN” and the CboPNum value:
ThisTextBox = “TxtN” & CboPNum.Value
ThisTextBox.Background = Black
But this quite correctly gives the error “Object required”… What do you guys recommend?
I need to ask user to input the row ("rowin") and column ("colin") address in order to activate a cell. The mose natural inputs from the user will be an integer for row and one or two alphbats for column. Say, for example, the user input (82, AY), how do I represent the cell in code? I know I want to say something like Range("AY82"). But I just could not figure out how to concatenate "colin" & "rowin" to make it AY82 to Excel.

I have a VBA application that seems to work fine under vista but once I start working with it in Windows 7 I notice sometimes one of my userforms do not go away when asked to hide. The code is like follows:

I have created a userform and command button within an excel spreadsheet to run the userform and then manipulate the data entered into the userform. However when I click the cancel button of the userform the macro tries to continue to manipulate the data entered, of which there is none and then comes up with an end/debug command. Is there an If and Then statement in VBA that I can use so that if the 'Cancel button' is clicked then the rest of the Macro won't run.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI designed some userforms on a worksheet for users to click and input information. However, i am wondering if it is possible to have an additional feature to the userform.
Currently the userform only have labels such as Title, Dept, Branch, Unit and the respective textboxes for user to input information. As it might be unclear to some users i would like to have an additional feature such that when user roll their mouse over the label "Branch", the user will see a box where more information is given or rather an example such as "Dept XYZ", allowing user to have a clearer idea of what to fill in. Is there any way for me to add this feature?
I have a UserForm which has a ListBox and other TextBox, I have an issue when I select any option from the ListBox. I transfer data from the Form onto a Worksheet, which works great until I reach the ListBox.
My problem is that when I enter the information and click submit which will save the Data and send it to an Access Database. The problem arises on the ListBox. I get an error message Run-time error 3265 "Item not found in this collection"
I dont understand what the error is, how can I get around this so that all the data is written to the Worksheet and can then be transfered to the Database?
I was wondering if there was a way to add comments (that you see in spreadsheets) on a userform in vb editor. So that when you run the form and the user moves the mouse over a textbox then it displays the comment.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a sheet with two user forms. One which collects a few options and a second where I use a webrowser and some more options on it to do some tasks as per the options selected in number one.
I am having problems because I need to use the options that are selected on the first user form and apply them on the second userform by using if statements.
So basicaly the question is how can I use a variable defined in one userform and apply it on another userform?
I'm having trouble with checkboxes - I've set up the userform but I can't seem to get it to send values to the specific cells when certain options are checked.
The way it should work is there will be an action and this could be involved with 1 process or 40 processes (and anything in between) and what will happen is the userform will pop up and ask what processes the action is applicable to. The user will then tick the correct ones and the form will then place these values in the corresponding cells next to the action.
1) I have added multiple command buttons as options within different categories but when I select one, all others are reset. Is ther a way to section off the command buttons into groups so that say the first three act together, the next two act together and then the last four act together, allowing a total of three options within three different categories?
2) How do I get the options from the userform to the worksheet?
3) How do I put an input box on a user form?
I'm trying to hide a UserForm (using myFrm.hide) once the command button on the form is clicked. I'm getting the following error:
Run-time error '402'
Must close or hide topmost modal form first.
Apparently the form isn't the 1st in the z-order. How can I see the z-order of my forms?
I have had some succcess with Userforms, but I have now tried creating multipage ones.
I assumed that when I clicked on page 2 or page 3 of the multipage control, it would take me to a blank canvas, but instead it just replicates what is on Page 1. If I put textboxes and labels on page one, it repeats them on pages 2 and 3. If I delete boxes fropm page 3, they also disapear from 1 and 2!
So im unsure how to put different labels etc onto different pages.
I have an easy question regarding the Multipages in userforms. If I want to use Multipages, do I simply create a new userform, then select "multipages" from the controlbox and distribute all over the whole userform ?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI would really like to be able to have a function in a workbook that can run methods (for example Show or Hide) on a UserForm inside an add-in like this:
Public Sub Test_Addin()
frmTest.Show False
End Sub
where frmTest is a UserForm inside the addin. After the add-in has been added as a reference, I am able to access all of its functions/subs in this way. When I try to access a form inside the add-in from outside the add-in, I simply get an object not defined error. Looking more closely, if I type in "eRFTEAddIn." (which is the name of the add-in) and look at the possible options, the forms do not show up...although the modules and sheets do.
I am creating a userform with a listbox.
When I select multiple values from the listbox, how do I apply the selected set of values (user can select up to 10 out of 80) to a range of cells in a different sheet (in the same workbook), which cannot contain any blank cells?
We have designed a data collection program in excel which use's userforms for the data entry and form printing. There are 20 userforms, each with a "Next" button which hides the current userform and shows the next userform. The first "next" button has a copy and paste code which copies a today() statement and paste's it in a different cell to record how long it took to complete the data entry. We are able to go through the program once, but when we try a second time it freezes and the cpu usage goes to 100% resulting in us having to End Task.
