Create A Dynamic Array So That When A User Enters The First Sheet Name Via An Input Box
Nov 20, 2008
I'm trying to create a dynamic array so that when a user enters the first sheet name via an input box, excel will know to select the other sheets with ending (2), (3), (4) etc.
Currently this code works only if there are 4 sheets present (as I set this way), anything lower/higher is out of range.
How do I make it so that it will select sheets if there are less than 4 sheets present?
I tried nesting, but I pretty sure this array needs redimming or something. Is ubound a better option?
I'm trying to come up with a histogram chart that adjusts Bin Size based on user input. I've come up with the formulas for Bins and Frequency, but am struggling when it comes to charting the data to dynamically update when the user changes Bin Size. How to make the x-axis dynamically adjust with the number of Bins.
I have a form created using the instructions here [URL] ..... however I only have two boxes that I need completing. What I need to do is combine both inputs from the form into one cell. The code below shows this working but I am unable to get the array to work.
Essentially I need to get the array to drop in the old number and new number into the new cell so it looks something like this:
Old Number - 1234 New Number - 6543 Value in cell 1234 6543
The code I am using is set out below:
VB:
Private Sub submitmeterswap_Click() Dim iRow As Long Dim ws As Worksheet Dim myarray As Variant Set ws = Worksheets("x")
•Write codes to pop up an InputBox to ask the user for a customer name.
•The program uses the user’s input to check whether the name is on the list. If it is, display an msgbox saying that the customer name is on the list, and the corresponding cell will be indicated in boldface and in blue. Otherwise, an msgbox will be displayed saying that the customer name is not on the list.
Dim the customer list as an array (string var. type) and Dim Found as Boolean. You will need the If-Then construction and For-Next or Do-While/Until loop too). Create a button to run and another to restore the formatting to its original style.
This is what i did so far and still having problems with it:
Option Explicit
Sub customers()
Dim Arr() Dim R As Integer Dim C As Integer Dim ReturnColumn As Boolean
Is it possible that unless a user enters the value of Z5 into Z6, Excel will not continue, or allow any futher data to be entered, this after a user first selects a institution from a drop down list in H6, which will determine the value of Z5.
I have a macro that's running quite well and is cross-posted here:

What I need to do is allow for user input. I want to create a dialog box that pops up and asks for an input range, when the user runs the macro. Values can only be from 1 - 50. And the user won't be allowed to select broken sequences, like 6, 9, 12-15.
They would have to be continuous, i.e. 6 - 15, etc. I'm still very new to VBA. I can play with the control toolbox, but I have very little understanding of how to interface with the components that I'm adding/creating. Once I have that range, I want to use the inputs as the 'start' and 'stop' points for my loop. So I need to capture the values and pass them as input parameters, I'm guessing.
I can modify the loop to accept the inputs, I'm just not sure how to capture them from a user input dialog box.
I want to create a user input for a "LARGE" function so that I can then return the specified # of "large" items. i.e. user wants to get the top X number of users, user then enters number either into a dialog box or cell, code then looks at the number and populates a range of cells based on the input value. The current code that I am using simply refers to an existing table (r9:r30) that I then used the auto fill to copy to cells below it.
I really want to be able to just get a user dialog box going that will automatically populate both the range r9:rx (where X is the user input) and then also copy the above formula into the x number of cells below it.
I am working on a spreadsheet and would like to create a cell that allows the user to input a number (1 to 5) which will then equate to a percentage(%). I would then like this to deduct that percentage from a total number...
To try and explain this.. Should the user input 1 into the cell, this would then equate to 3% - this would then deduct from a total that percentage. Input 2 = 5% etc..
Once a user of my workbook has input various price levels on the Input Page, the data is sorted on the output page. As the data on the Output Page is quite vast and not all of it is relevant on a particular day, the user is interested in just printing a certain range of data that are in 5 columns. I am trying to figure out how to set up a macro that will allow the user to enter into an Input Box the range to print (ie. Cells C25:G60).
I found one example on this site listed below that allows one to do that but I would like to make it more user friendly. I do not want to make the user have to write out Excel cooridinates. Specifically by allowing the user to input in the Input Box a High price level in Column C and a Low Price level in Column C ; The macro will look in Column C for the highest instance of this High Price and begin the range down to the last instance of the Low Price (there can be several instances of the exact price level.) The macro would then create the print preview of the cells Cxx:Gyy.
Sub SelectPrintArea() Dim PrintThis As Range ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "" Set PrintThis = Application.InputBox _ (Prompt:="Select the Print Range", Title:="Select", Type:=8) PrintThis.Select Selection.Name = "NewPrint" ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "NewPrint" ActiveSheet.PrintPreview End Sub
I want to control what a user enters into a single cell based on others.E.g.
A B 1 20 500 2 50 500 3 75 500 4 100 300
Column A is a thickness and column b is a width what I want to happen if the user enters a thickness in cell D1 and a width in cell D2 I want an error to pop up if for instance the user enters 100 as a thickness to only allow a maximum of 300 in the width. likewise if the user enters a thickness less than 100 in cell D1 to allow him to enter up to 500.
I'm working with a workbook that has about 75 sheets. I need a macro that will copy the info in a certain couple of ranges from one sheet to the same ranges in another. This would not be a problem if it was always the same two sheets. But I need the user to be able to specify which sheet he wants to copy from and which sheet he wants to copy to.
The ranges on the sheets will always remain the same, just the sheet name needs to change. I created drop down boxes for the user to choose the copy from and copy to sheets, but I don't know how to insert that into the VBA code. The way I've designed it, the macro needs to read the result from the user that is on sheet "Index" in cell H5 to copy from and N5 to copy to. The result in those cells is the actual sheet name.
I am trying to do is to make it so that users can enter data into my form (I have managed to create the form and am working on trying to figure out how to get the info entered into the form to appear in my worksheet) and then the data will cause the information to, basically, compile sentences that I want to appear in one of three cells at the bottom of the worksheet.
Essentially, at this point in time, the end goal is to make 3 cells that contain text. Eventually, this text will be indexed elsewhere, but that is for the next person to deal with. I am creating a prototype that I want to present as a process improvement.
So, when the user selects 3 in cell D7 I want the text "Customer purchased 3 Widgets at $20 each." to print in cell 82B. I also want the user to be able to copy and paste some customer records from another program directly into a cell in the form that will just print (unchanged) into one of these boxes, too.
Lastly, I want the user to be able to select checkboxes that will, when selected, print a comment that will print in two of these boxes. For example, if the user selects yes for cell D26 then I want the text "Customer not eligible for free shipping" to appear in both cells C82 and D82.
I am looking for VBAS code to validate a date when a user enters a date. The date format must be in format dd/mm/yyyy for eg 16/05/2014 , 13/06/2014 etc
If date not in this format msgbox to advise user date format invalid
I have the below VBA code associated with a sheet called "Select View". When the workbook opens there is another code that displays only "Select View", all the other sheets are hidden. In "Select View" there is a data validation list. Based on the selection the user gets to see only certain sheets. For example, if the user selects "Region 1" they see only the sheets "Region 1", "Panama City" and "Pensacola".
As you can see some of the names in the "Target.Value" are the same as sheets in an array. The ones that do are lead schedules, that is information from other sheets in an array roll into it. That is values from "Pensacola" and "Panama City" flow into "Region 1", the lead sheet.
What I am trying to do is finish the code where based on the "Target.Value" selected it automatically takes the user to the lead sheet. For example, when the user selects "Region 1" in the data validation it takes the user directly to the sheet "Region 1". The user of course can also see the other sheets in the array, that is "Pensacola" and "Panama City" and can manually select the tab to view or go into one of the later
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim sh As Worksheet If Not Application.Intersect(Range("B10"), Target) Is Nothing Then For Each sh In Sheets(Array("Panama City", "Pensacola", "Region 1")) sh.Visible = Target.Value = "Region 1" Next sh
I am trying to create a single input sheet that automatically feeds data into several other worksheets within the same workbook. Some of the sheets use the same data, some are completely independent of each other. The point of having this is so that users can go in, fill in the input sheet, and the other sheets will automatically be filled with data from the input sheet.
I have 7 sheets including the table as you can see on the attached. Now, each sheet is allocated to individual items e.g. item 10, item 20 and so on. I can't figure out how to return all the Item 10, 20, 30 ... to the corresponding sheet. It says Item 40 to all sheets.
Want to go to a particular sheet in the same workbook by selecting the sheet name from a list in sheet 2 and clicking a command button. Sheet 2 has a list of all sheets in the workbook and sheet names are in two cells in column A & B (e.g. tdm-216). User to select two cells which are the desired sheet name (all sheet names are unique) and then click macro to jump to that sheet in the workbook. There will be over 100 sheets in the workbook.
I am currently doing an excel database of students application. I want a macro that creates a duplicate of a template sheet and renaming it based on the name of the student. Meaning once a name appears in the name cell, a sheet of that particular name is automatically created. At the same time, i want all the data regarding the applying student to appear the newly created sheet as shown in the attached file.
I have a user form that has a combo box "City" two text boxes one called "Flight" and the other "Date". What I'm trying to do is to prevent the user from saving the data input from the user form if any of those three fields is left blank. The code that I have so far checks all of the required fields, if any are left blank a message notifys which field(s) is left blank and return the focus back to that field. But the rest of code also fires.
What I really need is either to stop the code if any fields are blank and return the focus back to the blank field, the user completes the field(s) and clicks the save again, or better yet, pause the code until all the required fields are completed and then complete the save. (There is actually another 200+ lines of code in this sub, but I deleted it to keep the post a little shorter.)
I am trying to check a user input to see if the user has entered the date correctly. I am using the code below but it keeps giving me a "Type Mismatch" error.
I am trying to create a macro which gives me an input box. I need to enter 2 numbers into the input box. It would be as follows:
Input Box Msg 1 - "What is your labor cost?" (NUM1) Input Box Msg 2 - "What is your productivity rate?" (NUM2)
Then I need the macro to take this info and enter it into a formula which changes according to the row which you are on. (I need the macro to work based on which ever cell I currently have selected). The formula would be this if I currently had a cell on row 10 selected:
=(NUM1*(NUM2*$H10))/$H10
So, if I currently had cell L10 selected, and I ran the macro and put 100 in for "NUM1" and 10 for "NUM2" and my sheet had 20 in cell H10, then the macro would enter the number 1,000 into cell L10. If I had L500 selected, then the macro would enter the final number into cell L500 based on what value H500 contained.
I have a class module with several private variables, including one that is an array of a user-defined type. I am trying to set the values of a single element of this array with "Property Let ..." from a string array:
I have a dynamic table which is linked to a couple of charts. The table must remain dynamic.
I needed to add two new columns to the table, "Focus Area" and "Category". I need a drop down list in the "Category" column to be dependent on the item selected from a drop down menu in "Focus Area".
I can get the first row of the dynamic table to do this.... however; subsequent rows all lock the drop down list in the "Category" column to the same choices regardless of what is chosen in the "Focus Area" list.
Is there a way to make dynamic drop downs within a dynamic table?
I need to create a macro that can create a dynamic copy/paste loop. So far what I have is horribly inefficient. Each row in colmn A(minus the header) has a unique number in it. For each unique number, I need to paste it based on the number of column headers in row 1(minus column A). So, if there are 20 column headers, I need to copy cell A2 and paste it 19 times in another sheet. Then, I need to move to the next number in column A and do the same thing. Here's what I have:
[Code] .........
You can see that this is not dynamic. If I add another row to my table and rerun the macro, it will not catch it. I've attached a sample file to show you the big picture of what I'm trying to do. The data that I have is in Sheet1, and I'm trying to get it into the format in Sheet3. Rows/columns will be periodically added to the table in Sheet1, so the macro needs to be dynamic to catch that. The data in Sheet3 will always remain, and the macro will add the updated data below the old data in Sheet3.
1) I'm relatively new to arrays, but what I need to do is generate a list of file names and the sheets within each one. I would like to use an array for this, but since I don't have much experience.... well....that's why I'm here. Can someone point me in the right direction?
2) And the second part of this.... I was planning on using the FileSystemObject to determine the files in a selected folder and loop through that list of files, opening each one and harvesting the required info (file name and all sheet names). Should I use the FSO or is there something built into Excel that might be better (and also limit the number of dependencies for this little "project" of mine).
