Using Autocomplete From Another Sheet?

Sep 9, 2013

I'd like autocomplete to work in sheet 1 (Cell B4, if it matters) checking from data in sheet 3.

It's for addresses. I want to be able to access them quickly from the first few letters then use VLOOKUP to fill in the rest (the VLOOKUP formula is done and working).

Autocomplete In A Textbox Using VBA?

Dec 9, 2002

I have an excel file with a large amount of data. It is used to keep track of our firms past and current projects (on each row). The columns include data such as the name of the client and the city in which the project is located.

The excel sheet is set up with filters, so that it is easy to check which jobs we've done for client 'X', for instance, or the jobs initiated since a certain date.

In order for the filters to work properly, we need to make sure that, as an example, teh client name has to always be inputed in the same manner. Using excel's autocomplete option works well for this.

New projects are added to the top of the list. So, a new row has to be added each time a new project is inputted.

In order to automate things, I've made a userform with text/comboboxes in which the data for the new project is inputted and then placed onto the sheet once the userform is closed.

Is there a way to have the text/comboboxes on the userform use the autocomplete feature? As an example, if I'm entering the client name for a new project, is there a way to have the textbox autocomplete the client name by checking in the client column on the sheet? And, if there is more than one client starting with the same letter, is it possible to make a listbox appear showing all the clients beginning with that letter so the correct one can be picked?

Since the list of clients will always be changing, I don't want to code a certain set list, or have to continually update a list. (besides, the amount of coding would be huge considering the number of clients I would have to give it's own .AddItem)

Using Autocomplete Within A Combo Box

May 25, 2006

I have a long list of clientele in one column, I use a combo box to see all of these. I want to be able to type 'S' and have the drop down list automatically move me to the clients starting with "S". I know I cannot do this with data validation, so I'm pretty sure a combo box is my only choice.

Autocomplete / Autofilter On A Cell

Apr 14, 2014

I need to perform autocomplete on a cell as I type but I want it to activate only after I'm done typing in numbers.

For instance, the data I need to type in is an address, say '60 Yonge Street'. So, after I type in '60' I would like the autocomplete to be performed on the Street Names. Also, in column A in another sheet I have a list of all the street names.

I've used ComboBox, Data Validation and OnKey to do this before on Street Names only, but now I need to do it after I type the Street Number in.

AutoComplete With Values From Another Worksheet Without Using Combobox

Aug 15, 2014

I have this long list of data (company name, company ID and OIC) on sheet 1.

Then on sheet 2, user will key in the company name manually then the company ID and OIC name will auto-populate (i did the match index already on this one) before filling in the other cells.

How do I make the cell to auto-complete the company name by using the list of data in the other sheet? Do I use the combo box? If I use the combo box, will it affect the match index formula i created for company ID and OIC?

Combo Box Autocomplete Code Crashes

Jun 19, 2007

Hello, I'm using VBA to produce a combo box for any cell using data validation list.

This way the cell auto completes as well as displays as many fields as desired...I now have it functioning so that when you click on any cell that contains data validation list assigned to it, it will create the combo box in the cell for you...It functions great most of the time, however the sheet is used all day long and on a average 10 hour day it causes Excel to crash about 3-5 times. ....

Autocomplete With Validation List Macro

Mar 24, 2008

I have seen this problem mentioned on other threads, but, didn't see the resolution. I got the below code from contextures.com's sample spreadsheet DataValComboBoxSheet.xls. When I press the tab or enter key, Excel crashes. This macro does exactly what I need which is to allow the user to autocomplete from a long list of validation values that come from another spreadsheet. The code causing the crash is the Select Case KeyCode statement when the keycode is 9 or 13. I am running Excel 2002.

Option Explicit

Private Sub TempCombo_KeyDown(ByVal _
KeyCode As MSForms.ReturnInteger, _
ByVal Shift As Integer)
'Hide combo box and move to next cell on Enter and Tab
Select Case KeyCode
Case 9
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Activate
Case 13
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
Case Else
'do nothing
End Select ....................................

Disable AutoComplete For Specific Cell

Jun 12, 2008

how to disable autocomplete for a specific cell. There is only one cell (A11) that I don't want to use auto complete but I want every other cell to be able to still autocomplete. I think it may have something to do with matchentry being set to 2, but I'm not sure how to do this.

I don't know what sintax I need to use. I've tried this line of code but it doesn't work

A11.MatchEntry = fmMatchEntryNone

Excel 2007 :: Autocomplete In Dropdown List

Feb 23, 2012

I have cells containing large drop down lists (offering many possible entries). Is it possible to get excel to "jump" in the list or complete the entry automatically? If i start typing "aut", it should the drop down entry "automation". For your information, I just use Define Name and Data Validation to create the drop down list. Is it must be using VBA code or I just can use Define Name and Data Validation which has been I created?

AutoComplete Entry In Text Box Or Drop Down List

Jun 1, 2009

I currently have showing 800 suppliers in a List Box... sadly when having to search for a sepcific supplier this seems to be very fustrating and time comsuming for people in the Company.

I have tried the method of copying all of the Supplier above the list, so it can do an AutoComplete filter, but the data needs to be exact.

What i would really like is if i was to type the letter "V" in the cell, it would be able to provide me with a list of the "V" suppliers in a list.

Data Validation Autocomplete Via Combobox Modification

Jun 7, 2007

I'm using a script that when you double click on a cell containing Data Validation > List it changes to a combo box that has an autocomplete/increased columns view...It's working great, however there are two small modifications I would love to do and am not having much success with. Currently, you double click the cell w/the Data Validation > List in it, it then changes to a combo box and you can auto complete using the keyboard or select the dropdown and choose from an increased list. However, I would like to be able to simply single click on the cell, have it change to the combo box and auto expand the list if possible.

Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, _
Cancel As Boolean)
Dim str As String
Dim cboTemp As OLEObject
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim wsList As Worksheet
Set ws = ActiveSheet
Set wsList = Sheets("Rep Assist Report")
Cancel = True
Set cboTemp = ws.OLEObjects("RepName1")
On Error Resume Next
With cboTemp
.ListFillRange = ""
.LinkedCell = ""
.Visible = False
End With
On Error Goto errHandler

Copy Sheet & Create New Monthly Sheet From Present Sheet

Jan 12, 2010

I want to create a macro button that can create copy, insert, paste and rename the new sheet in next month's name, like if the active sheet's name is January, I want to copy the whole sheet of January, insert new sheet, paste the new sheet and rename the new sheet to next month like February?

Also rename the new sheet (February) cell B3 the same as new sheet's name (February)

So if month of February is near end, the macro button in February will create the same way as Jan did which means the next sheet will be named March and so on.

Data From Sheet A To Appear In Sheet B Based On Data Posted In A Column In Sheet A?

Jan 1, 2014

I have a workbook where Sheet A is a Master Order Form. Employees will input the quantities they need in Column C. The sheet will be otherwise protected. Sheet B is a "printable" order form that only contains the rows from Sheet A where the Quantity on Sheet A is not blank and is >=1. This will allow me to print sheet B with no blank rows for the items I don't need.

I found the following formula which claims to be able to do what I want:

=IF(ROWS($1:1)>MAX(C:C),"",INDEX(A:A,MATCH(ROWS($1:1),C:C,0)))

I can't get it to work correctly across two sheets.
