Dependent Combo Box Glitch
Sep 25, 2006I have a sheet with two combo boxes. One lists RC's (Responsiblilty Centers) and the other lists the Departments depending on which RC the user chooses in list one. I am not sure I did this right because a user choose a certain department and Department Drop Down List for some reason is now limited to the School of Nursing departments related to the user’s entry on the contract log. All the department field drop downs for entire sheet are now restricted to the information related to Dave’s School of Nursing RC on Line 1 & 2.

Copy & Paste Selection Based On Combo Box Selection
Jan 30, 2007I have attached a portion of an excel file I am using at the moment. What I require is a piece of VBA code which will allow me to copy selected data based on a combo box selection. What needs to happen is this :-
If the selection in the "Index" worksheet combo box related to "Month" in cell G19 is for instance "December", I would like the macro to compare this cell value to the cell values in cells C96, C124, C152, C180, C209, C236, C263 and C290 in the "Tech Services" worksheet and where the values match.......copy the commentary (Range C126:Z147 in December's case) to the range C34:Z55.
Sub To Be Run ONLY When A User Changes A Selection In The Combo Box
May 16, 2009I want is to happen is that depending on which option a user selects from the drop down box (a total of 10 options), a select number of rows and columns should be hidden/visible (as you'll see from the below code..)
The other issue I'm having is that with the below code, the workbook seems to be very "busy" constantly calculating something or the other. I need the Sub to be run ONLY when a user changes a selection in the combo box, but it appears that every few seconds the workbook will be calculating something.
Finally, I introduced the GoTo Endo line after every option (1 to 10) to try and speed up the Sub when a user makes a selection, but this appears to make no differnce - it still takes forever to run the Sub.
Combo Box Selection Will Not Calculate
Jun 15, 2009I am using 3 combo boxes to select the year, month and day for a scheduling worksheet. Each combo box is linked to a cell which is 'named' accordingly.
When I select the year and day, the calculations in the worksheet work. But when I select the month, the calculations will not work.
If I enter the month number into the linked cell using the keyboard and
press 'enter', the worksheet calculates perfectly. Only when the month
number is entered into the linked cell by selecting in with the combo box, it does not work.
BTW: I am intentionally trying to avoid using macros for 'security' reasons.

Enable Different Macros Based On Combo Box Selection
Mar 10, 2009I have a spreadsheet with 2 combo boxes - Combobox 1 enables a user to specify if they want to look at the data on the sheet by week or month - it has just 2 options - "select by week" or "select by month"
The list in combobox 2 changes based on the selection in combobox1 - so if you select "select by week" , a date list by week shows up.
Combobox 2 is supposed to run a macro which updates some backend pivot tables. there are 2 types of backend pivottable - weekly tables and monthly tables.
What i am not sure about is how to get the selections in combobox 2 to run either the weekly macro or the monthly macro based on if combobox1 is set to week or month ...?
Populate Two Text Boxes Based On A Combo Box Selection
Dec 31, 2009I want to populate the values of two textboxes that we will call TextBox5 and TextBox6 from columns W and X of a spreadsheet called "PowerAnalysis" when a selection is made form ComboBox5.
The ComboBox5 works perfectly now. I just need it to populate the other two text boxes.
All the data resides in the same row on the same sheet of PowerAnalysis when the selection is made in ComboBox5.
I hope I have been able to give a clear picture of what I am wanting to do.
Change Shape Color Based On Combo Box Selection
Aug 7, 2007I am trying to use a userform ( Combo Box) to update my named cell "Aircraft1" then based on the value selected change the color of an object.
The code works great if I manually enter the value in the cell "Aircraft1", however if the dropdown list selects the value the object does not update its color.
Is there a way to update the cell via a combo box, and then have the VB code change the color of the object?
This is my
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Intersect(Target, Range("Aircraft1")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Arrow1").Select

If .Value = 1 Then

Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.Visible = msoTrue

Selection.ShapeRange.Fill.ForeColor.SchemeColor = 17
Combo Box Should Trigger Another Combo Box

Unique Values Only In Combo Box
Apr 21, 2006I have a combo box on a form that is linked to a column of values allowing pre-emptive typing, or selection via a drop down. This works perfectly with one exception - each item shows up multiple times.
Is there any way of getting around this? the only way I can think of offhand would be to link it to a seperate table which is populated on a semi regular basis via another VB process? I would have thought this would have been a fairly common question but haven't been able to find anything on this board or others as yet.

Empty Values In Combo Box List
Oct 31, 2009I have a combo box, from the control toolbar, that I have populated with a named range in the properties of the combo box. The items in the named range vary when an earlier combo box is selected. There are always at least 2 values populated in the named range, but can be as many as 22 values. What happens is when there are only 2 items in that range, the drop down list from the combo box shows 20 blank lines! I have been searching for how to "ignore empty cells" in this range, but cannot find it. The empty cells are always before and/or after the populated cells, if that helps. The range is updated via VBA, not formulas, if that is helpful as well.

Jan 4, 2007I have a worksheet in which i have a set of data similar to the following (i have used colons as delimiters in this example).........
Basically what i want is 2 combo boxes. The first combo bow will allow you to select the phone type (e.g. Motorola PEBL, Motorola RAZR etc etc). The second combo box will have a list of items which match up to the value selected in the first combo box. Once the item has been selected from the 2nd combo box then the relevant matching data will be shown in a group of cells on the worksheet on which the combo boxes reside.
I know that this could be done by using the data validation feature if my data were laid out in a different way however it is not possible for me to re-lay out all the data in my worksheet. I have been told that there my problem copuld be potentially solved by using Excel VB but unfortanately my VB skills are quite weak.
Use Combo Box Values To Define File Path
Mar 10, 2007I created a series of combo boxes to accept values from the user. These values are intended to be used to build the name of a file they want to see. I tried to set whatever gets selected in each of the combo boxes equal to a distinct variable and inserted each variable into the file path at the appropriate point. I then created a variable for the file path and inserted the file path variable into code that opens that file, copies a particular worksheet, and pastes it into a new sheet in the “master” (the one with the form) workbook and labels it according to what it was named before.
The problem I’m having is that Excel says it doesn’t recognize the file path I’ve given it. Judging from the file path it quotes in the message, it’s not seeing my variables (only the part of the file path I entered in quotes) and then, later when I “debug” it says the variables are not defined. I’m wondering if there is more to defining a variable than what I’ve done. On the form page of code, I declared the following variables: The UserForm Code
Option Explicit
Public strPerformBySubtask As String
Public strPerformBySubelement As String
Public strPeriod As String
Public strMonth As String
I populated each combo box ok and remembered to call the sub procedures below, show the form, hide the form, et al. I think the problem might be in the sub procedures below that I thought would define the variables by setting the respective combo box output equal to a distinct variable I could use in the file path:...........................
Reset The Combo Boxes And Remove Selected Values
Apr 9, 2007I have 4 combo boxes that allow me to make selection from pivot tables. As you know in the pivot table there's the "All Selection" which does not exist in combo boxes (I think), so I created a macro to reset all the pivot tables with the "All" option selected in all of them. However the values in the combo boxes are not changing.
View 14 Replies View RelatedMultiple Combo Box Reference List But Remove Used Values
Aug 8, 2013i have a list of 5 teams in a named range ("teams") within a worksheet.
On a userform I have 5 combo boxes.
What I would like to have is an easy way to remove a used name in the list for the next combo box.
i.e. someone selects team a in combobox1, combobox2 then has a list of team b,c,d and e. I'll be locking the combo boxes and writing code so the next one will unlock if the previous box is populated.
i also need this to work if someone puts team c in first combobox this then gets removed in combobox2 then in combobox2 they input team e then both these values are removed for combobox3.
only way I can think of doing it is creating a lot of named ranges and using a lot of if then code which I'd like to avoid.
Unable To Hide Columns/delete Values Using Combo Box
Apr 24, 2007Using two Combo Boxes, I am trying to create an drop down outline form input sheet.
What it does is if you select the first selection in the combo box 1, then it hides certain rows, and deletes certain cells. If you select the second option in the combo box 1, it shows another combo box (2) which has another list of categories.
When I select the option 2 on the combo box 1, it unhides a bunch of rows, and activates combo box 2. However, when I try to select categories on combo box 2, each time it tries to hide/unhide rows I get this message "Unable to set the hidden property of the range class."

Hiding Columns And Sheets Based On Combo-box Values
Nov 4, 2008I have an activeX combo-box that selects from different pieces of equipment that we supply. Based on that selection, I require ranges from the same page that the combo-box is on to either hide or unhide. Also, I require different tabs to become visible or hidden based on that same selection. So far so good - I have code that does this, and it appears to work without glitch.
Where the problem arises, is in one of the ranges that is unhidden when a particular piece of equipment is selected there is another combo-box that I would like to use (the number of said pieces of equipment to supply) to further hide/unhide additional ranges on the same page, and also hide/unhide certain tabs as well.
When I make a selection from combo-box 1, all works as planned, but when I change the state of combo-box 2, even with no associated coding referring to it, I cannot change combo-box 1 again without getting Error 1004 "Unable to get the Hidden property of the range class".
None of the sheets in the workbook are protected.
I would sincerely appreciate any help/code that could circumvent this error.

Tab Into And Out Of A Combo Box
Mar 16, 2007I've got a worksheet which uses comboboxes at certain points for users to input data. At other points in the sheet they are entering directly into cells.
I've got the sheet protected, with the input cells unlocked so that it is possible to jump to them using the tab key.
However, I can't seem to make the tab key jump to any of the comboboxes. Ideally I'd like to set the full order for the tab key so that it jumps between input cells and comboboxes at the required stage.

I am assuming, I will have a separate sheet housing all the names and what areas they are trained in.
