I have an incredibly simple question, for anyone who knows Excel well. I pre-apologize for the gaps in my knowledge, as I'm mostly self-taught.
I have an example spreadsheet I found on a thread here.
It has cells A1 and A2 bound to combo boxes.
I want to set up a worksheet pretty much exactly like this.
I know how to do a combo box as an external item on the page, but I want each cell in a certain column on each row to be a combo box.
I have some code that run on Excel 2003, and fail on Excel 2000. It happens on functions Left, Right, Mid and Trim. I've found that I must use in "Late Bindings".
If exist any convertion for above functions?
I have a workbook in which there is a sheet containing a table.
Excel 2002ABC123Specific Gravity6 Volt ValuesSOC40.0000.000Dead
51.1345.97010%61.1485.99020%71.1626.02030%81.1766.06040%91.1906.10050%101.1976.12055%

171.2496.31290%181.2576.32095%191.2656.350100%SOC Chart
From another sheet I query this table using the LOOKUP function to obtain values from column C such as 25% 60% and so on. A typical query formula looks like this:
=LOOKUP(B2,'SOC Chart'!B4:'SOC Chart'!C19)
It would be nice if the fill color came along with the value.
I cannot figure out the syntax for the life of me.
This should work...
Dim DatObj as Object
Set DatObj = CreateObject("MSFORMS.DataObject")
...but it does not.
Also, if it is not possible to late bind to this class,

I am trying to use vba to give a combo box focus only when cell D2 (a cell merge of d2,d3 and d4) changes.
So, If I enter a number in cell D2 and hit ENTER or use one of the arrows I want the combo box to get selected (get focus). I don't want this action to take place when other cells are acted upon this way. ONLY D2.
What code do I need to activate a cell by the choice I make in a combo box? I don't want to change the value in the active cell, just want to offset by columns to enter a number in a different column.

Or maybe there is a better way to do this?
This is what i want:
When user clicks given cell form will pop up letting user choose cell value from Combo box.
I wanted to use Cell Selected event and just pop up Form but maybe i can do it withought VB.
Is there a way to limit possible cell values to few predefined values?
So user cant put there whatever he/she wants?
I would like to change a combo box back to a specific value, based on a change in C4.
So no matter what happens, if c4 changes at all, the value in the combo box gets reset....
I need a list in my form, simple "Name/Number" list (only two options) but i don't want it to refer to any cell in the worksheet.
I want to input a text in a textbox and with the selection in the list above i want to have multiple choices at how to approach the text (if i input a name i want it to be different than if i input a number). All the info i came up on the web refers to lists made upon a range of cells.
How can i make a list without involving ranges of cells?
Been doing pretty good up till now but I can not figure out how to get a combo box in the first blank cell of column A. I am using the named range 'Units' and there are almost 900 of them so I need the combo box.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIn my attachment, I have a worksheet where I need to pick a rating from a combo box or list (Expert, Leading, Applying, Learning, Under Performing). I will be picking this rating 10 different times on this worksheet and the selections will not be the same in all cases so the definition I need won't always be the same.
I would like to return the definition (definitions are detailed on another worksheet, Data Elements) to the cell to the right.
I've tried IF statements but when I make one selection from the combo box, all the combo boxes select the same thing. I've also tried vlookup but can't figure it out and can't find an explanation in layman's terms.
I am trying to create a menu that calls macros based on your choice using a drop down combobox (from the control toolbox). Everything works except: When i try to reset the drop down to "Main Menu" using the Linked cell $B$1 excel hangs and suts down evertime.

I have really enjoyed this forum and it has been a great resource for me in the past I hope someone can help. I have attaching the file for review.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have to create two combo boxes and when a user selects a value from one combo box, the values should get changed in the other combo box.
For example : if one combo box has values like "c/c++ programming" "java programming" and so on.. ... i would like to display the authors recommended (corresponding to combo box1) in the combo box 2.

http://www.vbaexpress.com/kb/getarticle.php?kb_id=824
But this combo-box only appears when I change from and back to the first sheet. I would like to either let the combobox appear
-when I open the file or
-when I click anywhere in the first sheet (can be a specific cell, or not)
Another solution would be to "fix" the combobox to a specific cell, ie not make it pop up anymore but just have it there.
I am having a few problems trying to amend the code so that it only uses the text box and combo box below. Unfortunately I am having a few problems. I am new and have amended this spreadsheet / code from another user on this site.
When I delete the combo box on the right, using developer mode, a run time error occurs.
I'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 trying to set-up a database where a list of people are trained on different items of equipment.
Is there anyway of doing this example please?
John is selected from a drop down box.
If he is trained on certain equipment, the box will turn green automatically. If he is not, the box will be red.
I am assuming, I will have a separate sheet housing all the names and what areas they are trained in.
I have a problem where a combo box in a form won't populate from the VBA code in the initialise routine. I've tried a couple of difference methods for populating the combo box without success. The code I have is:
VB:
Option Explicit
Sub NewTender()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
[Code].....
I tried the excel file uploaded by Norie but it only displayed "Is". Are there any settings I need to modify to allow the add item property to work?
I added a combo box to a worksheet and closed and saved it. But I don't want it amymore. I cannot delete it. I try right clicking it but nothing. The worksheet,(workbook) isn't protected.

For instance the row in which the combo exists, is shaded blue, is there a way to make the box the same shading too?
I have 8 combo boxes on Sheet 1, which must contain the info from Sheet 2.
The "Group" Combo boxes should contain the letter of the group (A, B, C or D - the information should be used from the D2:D5 cells from Sheet 2).
I want when user clicks on the Group Combo box (the one on the "1st Grade" row for example), and select some group (for example A), in the left combo box (which at first says "Choose Group ..."), all the names of studenst from 1st Grade and A group to be displayed.
How do I clear all combobox at one time? Now i am clearing it one by one and i forsee that if i have alot of combobox, this list will go a long way.
