A particular button is giving trouble. I repeatedly get the message ‘Can`t exit design mode because Control ‘CommandButton1’ can not be created’. The offending button was replaced with a new one and the new button worked fine the first time. But when the file was closed and reopened the message popped up again. Excel VBA help states that the must be instantiated. How is this done?
View 2 RepliesIs there any way in VBA to refer to a control in its own event procedure without referring to it by name/hard-coding?
It might be clearer to explain by a dummy code example:

I'm seeking what I would need to replace Line1 with.
Within the ComboBox properties, is there anyway to control after "enter" his hit, you move to the right instead of down (similar to the edit under Tools/Options)?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have created a userform within VBA which has a TreeView Control and a Spreadsheet control on it.
I have populated the TreeView control with data and what I want to be able to do is to drag the nodes off the TreeView control to the spreadsheet control.
I can drag onto a normal worksheet but not onto the spreadsheet control (the no drop mouse pointer keeps showing).
How do I determine which control the user is currently modifying on a multipage form (either changing, enterying or exiting the specific control). when I use "userform1.activecontrol" i get "multipage1" as the control name but I need the actual control on the specific active multipage. (also the .TABINDEX is for the multipage regardless of the on-page control) I use a generic data-field change SUBroutine so need the control name (and the TABINDEX) to provide my SELECT CASE. (so every fieldname_CHANGE calls the same SUB [with no parameters])

My problem that I’ve tried to resolve for some time is utilizing some type of pop-up calendar to eliminate format issues in my published Excel forms. I have tried a number of calendar controls but all have to be registered on the local machine and this cannot be guarantied for every machine.
If someone could direct me to a vba UserForm that has this built in that might do the trick. Or is their another way to deal with this?
I have 2 macros: 1 controlled by a checkbox activex (PA_03) and the other a combobox (PA_03_rows) in a worksheet. I display the results from PA_03, and the user than then increase or decrease the number by using the combobox. But when I change the value (PA_03_rows.value = x) it causes the macro to jump to the macro.
I don't think it did initially, but it does now. According to another post, I saw it shouldn't do it! Is there something I'm just not seeing here?
Private Sub PA_03_Click()
Dim message, title, default, numberRows
Dim PA_rows As Integer
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
TakeFocusOnClick = False
Worksheets("sheet1").Select
ActiveSheet. Range("a15").Select
If PA_03.Value = True Then Goto Unhide:
If PA_03.Value = False Then Goto Hide:
Unhide:
message = "Enter the number of input rows required (1 to 50)"
title = "Non-Featured Standard Input"
default = "1"
I have added a control (a check box), it has called itself "Check Box 1", can I change it's name? Reason I want to do this is that I am using a macro to clear the check boxes, and therefore using a loop and I want the next control to be 5, not 12.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am creating a bar inventory/"numbers" sheet for a corporation. I have been searching on and off for a week or so to find an answer or a tutorial on what I am looking to implement into this worksheet. I want to take a userform, with a multipage control, and have the control for each tab, show me a different part of the worksheets. For instance, the first tab would be inventory, the second tab would be ordering, the third tab would be weekly numbers, etc ... I am wondering how to "add ranges to the multipage control in order to make it a "viewer". I have found tutorials on how to print, enter info into the form and save it to the sheets using a button, but I can't find a tutorial on how to implement the control on how to make tabs show the ranges. Can someone point me in the right direction on a tutorial, or maybe if willing a small spreadsheet with a mulitpage control on it, showing how to add the ranges from different worksheets?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI record a macro that copy a portion of a tab to another, but when my data changes the destination get data one above the other. I think it is because instead of sending Control Donw it goes to the cell that I recorded the macro with.
I probably just need to send Control downkey....
I'm trying to make it so that when a user clicks on a certain cell, a calendar pops up so they can pick a date. This seems like a pretty common thing to want; I hope Microsoft puts it into the next release.
Anyway, I've read the tutorial found at [url]which tells you how to create a userform, add the calendar control to it, etc.
I've also modified it so that the calendar comes up when the user clicks on a certain cell, and so that the form closes when they choose a date.
I had to use the selection_changed subroutine to tell if someone clicked on the cell, but there are some flaws.
First, moving over to the cell with the keyboard arrows brings up the calendar (undesired result; I only want it to come up with clicking)
Second, if the cell is already selected, clicking it doesn't bring up the calendar since the selection didn't change (also undesired; I would like the form to come up whether the cell was previously selected or not).
There are a few aspects of the UI I'd like to control in
1. Is there a way to force Excel to select nothing? After a sort by macro, Excel leaves the sorted range selected. I can set it to select a specific cell every time, but I'd rather have no cells selected at all.
2. Can you programatically hide the Formula Bar, Gridlines, and Headings?
3. Can you programatically collapse the Ribbon? (Excel 2007 only, of course.)
The last two are intended to maximize the screen real estate dedicated to the body of the spreadsheet, and I'd like to do it in code so that I don't have to describe how to do it to less skilled users.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a UserForm that contains both a combobox and textbox.

View 9 Replies View RelatedIt has been a long time, but learning VBA is proving difficult because it doesn't seem to allow the tricks I used to use! The code below is not complete, just a sample to show what I want to do, using made-up variables.
For row = 12 To 50
If colBcontents = 6 Then
h=24
Next row
End If
If colCcontents = 5 Then
g = 7
Next row
Else If
y=24
End If
Next row
The bad formatting shows that I can't use "Next row" inside the loop, only at the end. So how do I get this function? All my books tell me is how to exit the loop early. I can't seem to "Goto" a label just before the real "Next row", even. BTW, I should point out the example is a very simple attempt at explaining the proble. I need to do these actions on much more complicated steps. Edit: Is the answer to make one big chain of Else Ifs?
I have a spreadsheet that is a timed test. One of the people taking the test accidently hit Control-F4 which closed the file and ended their test before the time was up. Is there a way I can turn off Control-F4 without turning off other keyboard functions?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a form that launches when a user wants to confirm an order from a customer. It loads a drop-down combo box with our current customer list. When the user selects a customer, a checkbox array is loaded with the items that a customer has ordered. The checkboxes confirm (or un-confirm) that the order has been processed. Everything works fine up to this point. Let's say the user selects a customer, and this customer has 7 orders. 7 checkboxes appear on the form, either checked or unchecked.
The problem is:
when the user selects another customer from the drop down that only has 3 orders. The 3 checkboxes appear just fine, however, the balance of the previous customer (orders 4-7) also still show on the form. How do I remove the previous checkboxes from the form and prepare for a new recordset (or new checkbox array). I have tried to run backwards through the code that creates the array using Me.Controls.Remove instead of .Add, and this is just not working.

Following some googling I found this, it does exactly what I want (checks the date input to the box is a valid date and then formats it appropriately)

I've used trend lines to find the mean and average but for some reason I have not been able to set an upper and lower limit. without introducing a new column.
