I'm trying to write a code to make a number of buttons visible depending on a cell value
I have 10 command buttons all are invisible and I want to show only the first x
x is the value of cell "A1" in "Sheet1" (will be from 1 to 10)
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
Dim i As Long
For i = 1 To Sheet1.Range("A1").Value
CommandButton& i.Visible = True
Next i
End Sub
I have a workbook with about 53 worksheets one for every week in the year. They are named as follows:
VA-1-1-09 TO VA 12-28-09 All sheets are hidden except the (VA-1-1-09)
What I am trying to do is create some logic that would keep all 52 sheets Very hidden except sheet VA-1-1-09 Till the second week starts at that time what I would like to see happen sheet VA-1-5-09 come out of very hidden and appear visible and send sheet VA-1-1-09 to just a hidden state. I like to have this happen for every week of the year? If this can happen automatically that would be great however a command button clicked once a week would do the trick as well.
I have a data validation list in cell D11 on sheet "Data Entry" and a command button "btnMultipleProperties" that I only want visible if "Multiple" is selected in "D11" I have the below code in "This Workbook" in VBE but it doesn't work. What did I miss?
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
With Sheets("Data Entry")
If [D11].Value "Multiple" Then
btnMultipleProperties.Visible = False
Else: btnMultipleProperties.Visible = True
End If
End With
End Sub
I have a multiple of command buttons that I want to make visible. I have the following code which I am trying to get to work. Maybe I am barking up the wrong tree.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to change the color of buttons or command buttons? There does not seem to be any place that allows this under properties for buttons, although there does for command bars. However, I've tried recording a macro as I change the color, but nothing get's recorded so I'm not sure what the syntax would be.
I have a spreadsheet with several buttons and I'd like them to change colors as they are pressed so it's possible to see what you've already done. And then, as soon as any other cell on the sheet is changed, the buttons reset color.
I have a Drop Down Box that I am hiding upon selection of another DDB. I can get it to be hide/show using the following code:
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Drop Down 4").Visible = False
and
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Drop Down 4").Visible = True
The only problem is, that when it becomes visible again, the DDB appears in a different location about an inch to the right of where I orginally had it. However when I scroll using my mouse so the DDB is not showing on my screen, and scroll back up, the DDB jumps back into correct position, with the correct size.
Is there anyway to keep the DDB fixed upon making it visible, without having to scroll up and down? As it will look really bad to my end user.
I have created a great little macro to handle a large amount of data on my spreadsheet that I've been using for several months. It's a shared sheet that is used by many people, but the macro is protected...That being said, something strange has happened that none of my buttons for activating the macro are no longer visible. I can't even create new ones. I get a box outline with a little red X in the upper LH corner. I've verified that the button is in fact set to be visible and set up properly for colors, etc.
I'm not sure what's happened since it happened in a matter of hours...did something get "deactivated" that I need to re-instate?
I was working on a presentation for work where I wanted to build a 'Family Feud' type board to play a game. In the board I am using activex text boxes with code that would hide the text box to reveal the answer underneath or it would show a custom shape (an X in a box) and play the buzzer sound. The code is pretty simple, first I would make the shape visible, then I would play the sound then the shape would be made invisible. If I step through the macro everything works fine, but when I run the macro, you never see the shape. It's almost as if the sound plays before the shape shows up and then it is made invisible again. I tried putting a wait and a sleep command between making the shape visible and playing the sound but that made no difference. If I remove the code to hide the shape at the end and run the macro, the sound plays and then the shape appears. Is there anyway to have the shape appear prior to or at the same time as the sound plays?
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton8_Click()
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
ActiveSheet.Shapes("First Strike").Visible = True
Play_Strike_Sound
'The previous line refers to another macro that has the code commented below. The sndPlaySound32
'function is one I picked up from cpearson.com
'sndPlaySound32 "C:\_Fin SysSoundsff-strike.wav", SND_SYNC
ActiveSheet.Shapes("First Strike").Visible = False
End Sub
I have a range of cells (A1:D5) identified within a worksheet (worksheetA) as part of a user input form.
When a certain condition exists, a routine is executed that copies a range of cells (C1:F5) from another worksheet (worksheetB) to this defined range. The copied area consists of two command buttons. They get copied and pasted no problem.
When I want to reset (blank it out of its contents) my range in worksheetA from I copy another range over of just a range of blank shaded cells. However, doing this does not eliminate the command buttons left in the range on previous pasting.
How do I delete these command buttons left from previous pasting activities when I wish to reset my range?
I have been having an internal debate of how my worksheets shoud be configured.
My workbook could potentially contain 300+ worksheets, 10 control buttons and around 20 macros.
Each worksheet contains data in a range ~ A1:AC40 with many blank cells.
Do you think a workbook with this many worksheets would be unmanageable given the Comp Spec of the user PC below?
Most of the cells are simply short text data.

i try run macro with commandbutton, but it doesnt work. I insert button from "control toolbox" then i create a macro. Then i wrote this macro to "Private Sub" but it still doesnt work.
When i click on button, it only open editing macro, or select the button.
I made a userform to calculate the net weight of a package by taking the gross weight and deducting the amount of boxes included in the package. The most boxes possible is 25, so I used 25 command buttons numbered 1 to 25, so users only have to press the desired amount of boxes for the calculation to begin.
But that also means I've got 25 subs containing the same formula, and that's a bit much. I'm pretty sure this could be done more efficiently,
I can't write macros, so have to create them by actually recording the process. I did that just now and then copied it into the Command button. When I run it from Tools>Macros, it works, but when I run it using the Command button it fails.
I'm trying to copy and paste values current MTD figures (P18:P39) to previous MTD area (W18:W39), but the command button fails at this selection. Cells 28-35 are blank, but I don't think this makes any difference, as I've tried the command button with those cells zeroed out.
This is what I recorded initially; this works from Tools>Macros

I have a workbook with some command buttons that I created a while back. The buttons used to work fine. But after installing a new computer, the spreadsheet no longer works. I can step through the code fine, but when I try to click on the button, nothing happens.
View 9 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to create a number of command buttons, depending on the number of lines on a worksheet, and then have the code attached to the command buttons execute based on the position of the buttons on the sheet. For example, if I have a button positioned over, say A3, can the code execute based on the content of another cell in the same row. I imagine that the button would have to be linked to the cell, but I cannot see how that is achieved.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI was creating command buttons and had trouble using the linked cell. I found an example on the forum here but the command buttons seem to have many different behaviors. On the attachment, "Button 1" and "Button 2" are the ones I created in Excel 2003. "Button A" and "Button B" are from an example I found on the forum.
1 and 2 can only be edited on design mode, and have the formula "=EMBED("Forms.OptionButton.1","")" by default (which yields an error when exiting the formula field). A and B can be edited at any time, and have an extra tab ("Control") on the Control Format dialog. This seems to allow the linked cell to be set and function pretty handily. Are A and B from a different version of Excel? Auto Merged Post;Here's the attachment:
I have 3 cpmmandbuttons in a spreadhseet named "Controls" . viz

My Aim is to disable and gray out the Archive button once its assigned macro is run(by clicking it) so that it activates only next time that the workbook is opened.
In the attached workbook there is a UserForm with five (5) command buttons along the bottom of the UserForm. I'm familiar with making them the same size and aligning tops. What I'm struggling with is how to distribute them horizontally. That is, to get the same amount of "white space" between them.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI need to get the code for a "copy" command button and "select all" command button. I need both for a text box.
Scenario: I click on the "select all" command button, it selects whatever is in the text box and then the "copy" command button copies all of that. So then I would be able to paste that in another program.
Does anyway to use a scroll bar to priortize a selected range?
I have included a simple example that I would like to rearrange with a scroll bar.
For example, I would want be able to select one row in the range and then place it either above the current position or any where in that range.

I have a workbook which employs 4 different userforms. Navigating thru the workbook, the user ends up at a sheet with 5 macro buttons, allowing them to choose from several different functions. I added these to the worksheet using the "forms" toolbar.
My question is this: Is there anyway to change the color of these buttons, as I can with the userform buttons? Under "format control" I can change size, font, even color of font, but I can't change the background color of the button itself. Is it possible to identify those particular buttons thru VBA and adjust it's format?
