Using Enter Key To Trigger Click Event
Jun 23, 2007
I am working with a large legacy file/program which has a lot of issues. Foremost, and unfortunately this cannot be changed, is that all of the controls were placed directly on the worksheets instead of on Userforms.
I had previously posted code from the legacy file which may have been excessively complicated. So I edited my post to this simple example. Sheet1 has one textbox and one command button. Sheet 2 is blank.
If Sheet2.Activate is commented, everything works fine. If Sheet2.Activate is executed, then Excel crashes....

I have a user entering text into a textbox on my userform. The textbox is linked to a textbox change event. Unfortunately, the event is triggered as soon as the user enters the first character of their entry. I'm thinking that the textbox change event isn't the most appropriate for this scenario. What would I need to do to trigger the code (of the change event) with hitting ENTER when finished?

Is it possible, that while running code that the code can say initiate the click event on a command button on another sheet.
Say that I have a button on Sheet1 called "wkscmd_DisplayDEI"
Behind that button is obviously some code. I want to know is it possible that while some code is running ( code does not reside on the module page for Sheet1 that it can send a pseudo click to the button?

If no program (code) is running and Calculation is turned to ON, what expression could be placed into a cell that will change on its own that could necessarily and periodically trigger a change event subroutine. How can I trigger a change event when nothing is changing?
I have a situation where my code simply stops running so i need a change event to assess whether code is running (or not) and to issue a warning to the programmer that the code is, in fact, stalled. The change event subroutine has not only a warning system but a "timetorun" feature that will come back and warn again until the programmer can address the issue.
Unfortunately, I have to deal with this issue in a check and balance fashion because my many attempts to seek solutions to a stalled program (root cause) have failed.

On my userform I have a frame. Within the frame, there are 6 option buttons. Can I trigger an event when when the user selects a different option button? I was expecting to see a Frame.Change method. But I don't. One solution is to insert code on each of the Option Buttons Change methods.

Is it possible to write an event trigger macro to format cells? Let's say I want to add a new information to the row which is after FinalRow. Can I force excel to detect the input and then format that new row as previous rows or something custom?

I am trying to write a worksheet_selectionchange macro in which the change is initiated only when certain cells are changed (B6:B9 and X9). I do not want the change to be initiated when any other cells on the worksheet change. B6:B9 and X9 are drop down boxes and the values within the drop-down boxes is variable.

I have a project report, which is user-configurable, allowing the user to customise the data that is displayed based on a number of parameters.
To ensure the report always prints neatly (the number of visible columns and rows varies, depending on the above parameters), so I have a macro that dynamically sets the print area of the worksheet.
At present, I call the macro from the workbook.beforeprint event, which works fine in terms of printing. Ideally however, I would like the macro to be called when CTRL+P is first pressed - i.e. the resulting 'print screen', containing a preview of the print out should reflect what will subsequently be printed, when the 'Print' button is then pressed.
I am not sure if this makes sense (Excel 2010 and 2013 are different from previous versions).

So, I have a worksheet with a bunch of combo boxes. The code for the worksheet is below. The issue I'm having is that anytime I drag and drop a cell anywhere on the page, every single control on the worksheet triggers. VB runs through all the code on the sheet, TWICE(I used the debugger extensively trying to find a solution), and causes dozens of successive re-calculations of the entire workbook, which has a couple of tables. This happens on any cell drag-drop on the worksheet, or when I click the command button on the screen.
I have no clue what is causing this. Even more bizarre, it seems to trigger a custom function which is located in a separate module, and isn't even utilized on the worksheet in question. I guess this is because it makes the whole workbook re-calculate?

What is the method to trigger an event on a command button (placed on a worksheet - not in a form) when the return key is pressed? I.e. instead of moving to the next cell clicks the button?

The code handles keydown, keypress events with no problem. Also similar change events, and probably more.
This code is at UF initialize event:
Option Explicit
Dim TextBoxes() As New Class1
Dim ComboBoxes() As New Class1
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim TCount As Long, CCount As Long, c As Control
TCount = 0
CCount = 0
'Set TabIndexCollection = New Collection
For Each c In Me.Controls
' TabIndexCollection.Add c, CStr(c.TabIndex)
If TypeOf c Is MSForms.TextBox Then................

I am creating a spreadsheet that has various form controls, etc... in it and I wanted to create a "help" macro. I have a small Question Mark icon and I want the user to be able to click the icon and have little text boxes appear on the excel sheet with instructions.
I was wondering instead of making a toggle event where the user clicks once to turn on and again to turn off, if there was a way that the user could click and hold on the icon to make my text boxes visible....and when the user releases they disappear.

I have some rows in my sheet locked and some unlocked rows. When user clicks on a unlocked row I should be able to enter some information. I am suppose to populate some dropdowns in that row for him to choose. How can this be done??
I know when a user clicks a row worksheet change event is call. I can write a function in the worksheet change event to populate values in the dropdown. I went through some articles, and they say it can be done by hiding and unhiding rows.

I have a form that allows users to browse for a file so the location can be stored in a cell. When they select a file the form then creates another area so people can browse for another file. (Similar to an attach a file on an email)
The problem I have is that when I create the next button I don't know how to add a _click event to it.

I currently have a set of ListBox controls on a worksheet tab. They are all configured as multi-select and i have the values populated via the ListFillRange properties. Each listbox has an '{All}' option; when the user clicks on this value I want to de-select all other previously selected values. The code for this is straightforward enough, but I cannot get it to fire using the _Click event. Why this is not working?
Additionally, I attempted to use the _Change event but quickly got caught in recursive loops which obviously is not going to cut it.

I would like to create a macro in which, when the user double clicks on a cell, that cell will be shaded yellow and other cells within the Workbook containing the same value as that cell will be crossed out. I have come up with the below code, but it doesn't work correctly. Any ideas on what I have done wrong? Would also like it to not cross out the cell the user double clicked on.
Private Sub Workbook_SheetBeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim wk As Worksheet
Dim selectedName As String
selectedName = ActiveCell.Value
With Selection.Interior
.ColorIndex = 6
.Pattern = xlSolid
End With
For Each wk In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
For i = 200 To 2 Step -1
If ActiveSheet.Cells(i, 2).Value = selectedName Then
ActiveSheet.Cells(i, 2).Font.Strikethrough = True
End If
Next
Next
End Sub
[/code]

I have a UserForm with 2 command buttons.
The first Command Button ( called CommandButton22 ) displays the result of some other calculation as its Caption ... this caption will therefore be changing from time to time.
I would like the second Command Button (called EnterButton ), when clicked, to send the caption from CommandButton22 to whatever cell on the active spreadsheet the user clicked into just prior to clicking on the 'EnterButton'.
I would like each time that I click on the 'EnterButton' for the Caption in CommandButton22 to be sent to the next cell down and so on and so on etc.

I use a CommandButton on a UserForm to copy the contents of 12 TextBoxes into the last row on a sheet. I am getting numbers with too many places. I tried to use Round(), but it is not working.
Here is the original With Range("A65536").End(xlUp)
For i = 1 To 12
.Offset(0, i).Value = Me.Controls("TB" & i + 4).Value
Next i
End With
This gives me all of the decimal places.
Here is my attempt to use Round():
With Range("A65536").End(xlUp)
For i = 1 To 12
.Offset(0, i).Value = Round(Me.Controls("TB" & i + 4).Value)
Next i
End With
This gives me a type mismatch error.

i have some code that allows my users to enter their user ID on double clicking. The worksheet code below shows how on double clicking into Colum 3 (If Target.Column = 3 Then) then the user ID will appear. Q: How do i get the code to work in Columns 3, 5 and 7 but not those inbetween?! I tried using "or" but it allowed the ID to be entered into all columns! i.e. 3,4,5,6 and 7 which is not what I require. In short I need the ID to appear on double clik into every other column.
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim user As String
'This refers to the function ReturnUserName, which takes the name from the NT environment
If Target.Column = 3 Then
Target = ReturnUserName
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
