I've built a form in VBA which is working great. I now want to call it by creating a button in a worksheet and then assigning the Form macro to it so the user can just click a button. I've tried looking for it in the Assign Macro dialog and it isn't there (even though I've declared it as a public sub) and I can't call it from a normal Module as it says it's an undeclared variable.
View 3 RepliesContext: I have a spreadsheet that contains a list of employee names and their certifications. I want to be able to assign a button to each employee in column B with a macro that is able to zip files from a folder that contains that employees name.
The following code assigns buttons to each employee in column B. At the moment the code I have is able to assign the macro "Zip" to each button.
[Code] .....
Now, this Zip macro is able to zip the file for the employee "Anthony Tran". However I need it to be able to recognise which employee's button I've clicked and search the same files as above except with that employees name instead of "Anthony Tran".
If it makes things easier, the code for creating buttons for each employee is able to name that button as the employees name that it represents.
How would i go about assigning three sub routines to one button so that they all activate when a command button is clicked.

What do i write in macro to know the caption of the button being clicked?
The sceanrio is that I use vba to create commandbutton and make that commandbutton call a macro
Code:
With ActiveSheet.Buttons.Add(183.75, 38.25, 96.75, 38.25)
.Name = "Test"
.OnAction = "anothermacro"
End With
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Test").Characters.Text = "Test"
I have placed a CommandButton1 and CommandButton2 on the Sheet1....how do i then assign the macro code to these Buttons
CommandButton1 is called MANAGERS GROUPS (macro called Split Sheets)
CommandButton2 is called CLEAR MANAGERS GROUPS (macro called clear_managers)
It was working before as i just used rectangle shapes as the buttons but have since removed these shapes and used the CommandButtons
The error is below in RED
Code:
Option Explicit
Public TrainingRows
Sub SplitSheets()

Dim rCell As Range
Dim sht As Worksheet
Dim lastrow As Integer

View 9 Replies View RelatedUsing workbook A, I have created a new workbook (let's call it workbook B), and have copied a module over to workbook B using macros.
My question is, is there a way to assign the module to a command button using vba?
i wrote the program and created a button on the toolbar. what i did not know was other people outside of my location will be using this program. so when they get the file, they will have to reassign the macro to the button since the file location will be different. i have already written instructions with screen shots in case the boss wants to go that way. i would like to do this with code. they would run another program which would get the path and name of the file and assign it to the macr.

I am imagining a spreadsheet with the equivalent of an info button in each cell of column A. The idea is the user clicks the button to open a User Form containing additional info about the entitity represented by values on that row.
E.g., Row 1 is labels, row 2 is all about Bob, 3 is about Jane, 4 is about Freddy. If the user clicks the info button on row 3 then a user form opens up and displays additonal info about Jane.
I am wondering if there is a way for VB to identify which row the clicked button was on without having to write individual code for each button telling VB which row the button was on.
I am hoping there is some form button property I can reference or interrogate which will give me a cell address; a button.position property or similar. This will obviously save me a lot of coding if VB can dynamically determine which row is being interrogated as there will be a couple of hundred of these to start with, potentially thousands. (I realise Access is a better solution for database interrogation, but I have to work with excel at present).
Ultimately, the user form that the button calls up will have a list box on it and I want the list box to default to the entity on that row, and allow the user to browse the other entities if they want to.
If there isn't a solution for this I will just have a single info button for the users to click that opens the user form and then they can select the entity from a list box. But I would like to offer the "intelligent display" option but don't relish coding the equivalent of several hundred "You clicked button four hundred and seventy six, default to info card for bert".
Refer to attached file.
