I have a form with several combo boxes, and they function just the way I like as far as being able to pick from the list, or typing in them and having it show you the next available item in the list as you add letters. Whats happening that I would like to know how to deal with is... as soon as you type a letter that is not in my lookup range it generates an error. "Could not get the list property - Invalid property array index". I don't want people to be able to add to the list, but I would like a msgbox to pop up. Then allow them to go back to the box and try again.
How do I reference a spin button from a variable that I set.
e.g
Dim objSpn As Object Dim y As Integer
Set objSpn = ActiveSheet.Shapes("spnWCDate")
y = objSpn.Value
This doesn't work, but hope it explains what I want. It's so I dont have to write the whole object name each time I reference it.
ADDED: I've just noticed that this doesn't work even i do reference the object with the full name. I copied this from a forms spin control that I was using, why can't i store the value of the spin button in a variable?
I want to display a string to users. Normally I would do that using message boxes. But that would not give me enough control over the font size, and I want to display using font size 48.
I could have used global variables, but that is not a good coding way. The other way of doing that is using property procedures. I could pass a string variable to a Label control on the form and then could format it.
Having problems with trying to get my vba code to access the SpecialCells property. Receiving the following error.... Unable to get the SpecialCells property of the Range class. The section of my code is below that is causing the error. Keeps stopping on the "Selection.SpecialCells(xlsCellTypeVisible).Select" line.
Sheets(" Book Query").Range("A6:I6").Select Sheets("Book Query").Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select Selection.SpecialCells(xlsCellTypeVisible).Select Selection.Copy Sheets("Inventories and Variances").Select Sheets("Inventories and Variances").Range("A7").Select
I protect the Sheet1 Review > protect sheet and selected two checkboxes from protect sheet property "Select locked Cell" and "Select unlocked cells".
It is working fine and it does not allow the user to view the locked cells B17:B24 while protection is on.
I have a RadioButton1 on the same Sheet1 and i put the following code behind the button to hide the 4 up to 10 rows. When i will press the button while password protection is on; it is giving me the following error:
Unable to set the Hidden property of the Range class.
I keep getting that error when I'm running my macro. When I debug, it points me to the bolded line in the code below. The larger macro I'm running this function in runs this function some 101 times without error before this happens.
The values of the parameters are as follows when it gives me the error: Find_Exact("hchen", ws1, "B:B"). The first parameter is the only one that changes in the previously mentioned running of this function.
Code: Sub LockByColor() ActiveSheet.Unprotect "pc" Dim cl As Range For Each cl In Range("$BO$1:$BZ$45") If cl.Interior.Color = 6299648 Then cl.Locked = True Else: cl.Locked = False End If Next cl ActiveSheet.Protect "pc" End Sub
Sheets("PRODUCTIVITY").Select Range("A20").Select Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select With Selection .Locked = False (***debug screen is highlighting this line***) .FormulaHidden = False .ClearContents End With Range("A20").Select ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "PASTE NEW DATA HERE" Range("A20").Select
This worksheet was built for use of many users so this sheet is PROTECTED. The user is instructed to copy/paste information from our internal web into the selected areas in the worksheet. When i UNPROTECT the worksheet the VBA works fine.
The data in the worksheet spans from columns A to P, and the length (# of records) is variable.
I am using the below code to unloock certain columns based upon a value in cell a1. The value is the previosu month end date. It was working, but now I am getting " run-time error 1004 Unable to set the locked property of the range class" Can anyone help me to fix the error.
Sub UnlockMe() Dim cl As Range ActiveSheet. Unprotect "password" For Each cl In Range("$B$1:$M$1") If cl = [a1] Then cl.EntireColumn.Locked = False cl.EntireColumn.Interior.ColorIndex = 6 Else cl.EntireColumn.Locked = True cl.EntireColumn.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone End If Next cl ActiveSheet.Protect "password" End Sub
I am having trouble with a macro for unprotecting a sheet keeping specific cells locked then clearing contents of other cells then reproect the sheet. I wrote one for one sheet which works and I have re used this but it keeps saying Unable to set the Locked property of the Range class.
Code: Private Sub ComboBox1_Change() ActiveSheet.Rows("3:62").Hidden = False Range("D1").Value = ComboBox1.Text End Sub
I get a runtime error '1004' when I make my combo box selection. I don't have any security or password protection type stuff. The combo box is part of a more complicated spreadsheet and I don't want to switch to a data validation type drop down and I really want it to be activeX.
I have recently tried to implement the password protect from viewing code from this site. It worked brilliant on a basic spreadsheet, but when I tried to implement it on a worksheet with links I keep getting the error:
Run-time error '1004' Unable to set the hidden property of the Range class
I'm looking to loop a comparison code. I'm using dynamic referencing (using x and y) to find maximum values for specific time intervals. The code works on a cell to cell basis, meaning if I input the formula and change the cell referencing manually then the equation will give the desired results. However when I attempted to create a VBA code to speed up the process I kept getting a 1004 Unable to set FormulaArray Property of the Range Class error, I later figured out that the Formula Array function is limited to a certain number of characters so I split up my function into 3 different string formulas. I still get the same error.
Say you define a public range variable called Inputworksheet and you set it to refer to the worksheet called Inputworksheet. You have a separate string variable with the value Inputworksheet. How do you get this string variable value to call/control the range variable Inputworksheet?
I am getting an excel worksheet value from a lookup function that corresponds to the name of a VBA range variable. Once I have this worksheet value, I would like to use the range variable that has the same name as the worksheet value.
I am using this code (below) to hide certain rows or columns depending on what number is entered. Everything is working fine and I am at the point where I would like to share this excel sheet with others but I would like to lock certain cells so that others cannot alter the formulas. As soon as I lock the cells and then enter values into the unlocked cells, I get the "run-time error '1004': Unable to set the Hidden property of the Range class".
I am using excel 2010 x64.
Code: Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B3")) Is Nothing Then If Range("B3").Value = 0 Then Columns("G:P").EntireColumn.Hidden = True Else If Range("B3").Value = 1 Then Columns("H:P").EntireColumn.Hidden = True
I am using a variable named " Totals" as a range type to refference the range in a formula. It works the way I have it.
Dim Totals As Range Set Totals = [U37: AE37]
Now instead of the absolute refference, I would like to change the row refference by an offset of my current row, using a formula with a varriable. The columns stay the same.
I'm trying to unhide all the cells in a worksheet, but keep getting the "Unable to set the Hidden property of the Range class" error and I'm not sure what to do.
I'm trying to write a code that calculates 2nd column based on 3rd column's number or vice versa based on the condition set on the 1st column. Below, there are two procedures. "SimpleCalc" and "SimpleCalc2". I first wrote SimpleCalc2, but it isn't working, so I worked around the error by writing SimpleCalc, which selects a cell and moves around by offset. I personally find it hard to read and error prone as I develop more logic around it.
I'm trying to develop more function based on this code, so I need to make it neat and flexible. what I'm doing wrong in SimpleCalc2? Or do you have any suggestion to improve the code "SimpleCalc"? I'm using Excel 2003.
Sub SimpleCalc()
Dim SimpleMethodRng, SimpleMethod As String, i As Integer
I am receiving the error "unable to get the find property of the range class" in my code. I have attached my code and highlighted red where my error is occuring.

I'm trying to write some code to make an existing chart display the correct series of data. However, on the ".SeriesCollection..." lines, it gives me the error "Object does not support this property or method." I'm using a Bar-Line graph, if it makes any difference.
I am trying to write a macro which will autofill specific columns. The macro will set the range from the start of my autofill to the end of my autofill as a constant range.
The problem I need to get around is the end of my range can always change each time I run the macro. For instance, the first time I run the macro I may only need to autofill from row 4 to row 15. The next time, I may only need to autofill from row 4 to 23 (because of user updates). How can I make the end of my range not be a constant address but variable?
I have a named range, called SubjectNamesPastoral on a worksheet called Worksheets("Group to Teacher")
I can't assign the named range to the rngSubjectFamilyRangeOnSubjectUsedSheet variable in vba.
the first two lines of code work fine, the msgbox shows "E100:E105", happy days!
However when I try to assign the same range to the rngSubjectFamilyRangeOnSubjectUsedSheet variable, the debugger runs past the 'Set' line without error, but throws 'error 91' at the second msgbox.
