Dynamic Form List Boxes
Jul 1, 2008
Im designing a form which will be a few list boxes that input data into specific cells in another sheet.
I would like the list boxes to change depending on selection.
eg: if there is a certain value selected in the first list, then only the relevant values will appear in the second box.
so if there are values Potato, Banana and Apple in list one, and list two contains values White, Yellow and Red.
if banana is clicked in list 1 then only yellow will appear in box 2 as a selection.

this is my first attemp at doing a "userform". I am looking for some help in creating a user form that enables users to choose items from drop down boxes, which shows next level drop down list items, then down to final drop down list with information based on first two choices. I've attached the sample file for reference.

I am creating a spreadsheet where the user enters food they have eaten that day. The way this is done at the moment is with validated list boxes, one depending on the other using the indirect function. I want to be able to make this into a user input form. Is there a way of adding these validations from the spreadsheet, to an input form.
I want the input form to have an input for the day, food group, food item, and quantity of the food. The food item needs to depend on the food group.

I need to create a form that if you were to enter a name in the text box it would fill all the information across that row into other boxes on the form. Basicly if I type John Doe in the text box it would look in col A for John Doe and then put whats in the cells on that row into different boxes on my form. I have tried searching but I have had no luck. Im very new to forms so this is a great experience.

I am looking to connect 2 form control boxes and have the second box run 2 different types of macros. The first box will have only 2 options - select by week and select by month.
The second box should show the list of weeks or months based on the selection in the first box. Then for the second box, if weeks is shown, a week macro should be run whenever a week date is selected. Similarly for the list of months, a month macro should be run whenever a month is selected.
I have been trying to do this for more than a week (after posting on this board) without success. I apologize if this seems like a duplicate post.

I'm trying to link two combo boxes via a user form. I'm trying to select a city in one combobox which in turn would provide a listing of zip codes for that particular city in the next combobox.

I have a userform with 40 text boxes in it. I have learnt how to restrict people entering anything other than numbers into a text box using the following code on the keypress property of the textbox:
Const Number$ = "0123456789." ' only allow these characters
If KeyAscii 8 Then
If InStr(Number$, Chr(KeyAscii)) = 0 Then
KeyAscii = 0
Exit Sub
End If
End If
Rather than have 40 of these blocks of code (one for each text box), is it possible to somehow group them so that a block of code is applicable to all of them?
For the sake of arguement, the textboxes are called data1 up to data40

I have a user form with 4 text boxes and a command button. I have no problem looping through the textboxes to retrieve the value, but what is the best way to detect if any duplicates exist between the four text boxes? For example, in the command button's
If textbox one's value is "test" and textbox four's value is also "test", it should throw an exception. If a question like this has already been answered, a link to that post would surely suffice.

I am trying to create a user form to edit some named ranges. The VBA user form designer is basically the same as Borland Delphi, so building the form itself was easy. What I can't figure out is how to populate the user form with the data from the spreadsheet.
I have a number of text boxes on the form with names like txtTier1Slots, txtTier1Ceiling, txtTier1Floor, etc up to 4.
I have a defined name that corresponds with each item, Tier1Slots, Tier1Ceiling, Tier1Floor, and so on. I'm using defined names because they're referenced in Conditional Formatting on one of the worksheets in my project. They don't exist as actual cells, just name references.
I want to get the form populated with those values. I've tried about twenty variations of the following code, using ThisWorkbook, Workbooks, Cells, Range, Name, and just about every cell reference method I can think of. I've so many different error messages, my head is spinning.

I have a user form which includes some text boxes (txtRUL.text for example) where I want to enter a number as a percentage. I divide the number entered by 100 to avoid Excel automatically multiplying by 100 and the result is displayed in the user form as the correct percentage.
Private Sub txtRUL_AfterUpdate()
EnableSave
txtRUL.Value = Format(txtRUL.Value / 100, "0.0%")
(I'm sorry I cant figure out how to format this code as code in this post)
This works well, trouble is when I save and it writes the results to the worksheet, the numbers in the user form revert back to plain unformatted non percentage numbers (ie 5% goes to 0.05)

I'm trying to incorporate multiple conditional (Dynamic?) drop down boxes to enable me to get an appropriate code at the end of the process. This will be used to product data entry and the code will tell Amazon where to post the product. I have many thousands of codes that i need to access and the easiest and most accurate way is to break down everything in to category and sub categories until I eventually get the code I want for that specific product.
for Example:
1730708031Clothing/Baby/Baby Girls 0-24m/Hoodies & Tracksuits/Tracksuit Bottoms
To return this code I would want to select Clothing, which returns a list which includes baby which in turn will give me a list that includes baby girls and so on and so on until I can select Tracksuit bottoms that will return the code.
Each list is dependent on the previous choice
As I have thousand and thousand of potential codes creating range list for each potential category and sub categories is not really feasible and would be very difficult to maintain when changes occur.
With this in mind I have created a code list that breaks the above example so that each category is now in it's own cell and there can be upto 8 (as I've seen so far) potential conditional categories before you return the code and ideally I would like to use this as it very easy to create and update. (see attached)
I might be able to use filters to return the appropriate list each time but don't know where to begin.

I need to establish a method of interleating multiple dropdowns or Form Control boxes. The purpose is to select one item and have a selection of multiple items associated with the selected item. Example:
Computer training dropdown box 1 offers selections of word, excel, powerpoint, ... If selection is Word, then dropdown box#2 offers advanced in room #15, Intermediate in room #16, Beginning in room #17. If Box 1 selection is excel box 2 selections would be different.

I have a range which will change in size & in content, & I want this to be a Named Range at whatever size it is.
Reason I want to is because I want to make a Validation List with this dynamic range. I also want a Validation list which lists the content of 2 or more dynamic ranges which may or may not be on the same worksheet - is this possible?
i.e.
First dynamic range: called "Milestones" at A11
Second dynamic range: called "Activities" at A25
& make a Validation list that will list content of both

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 want the user to type data via a form, but the number of the records to be added may vary.For this purpose I want to create a form, which has a "new record" button, which adds a new textbox, checkbox and radio button to the form. I do not really know, how to add these controls on such a way to the form, that the new elements will be well aligned below to the existing ones and the size of the form will also be adapted if it is necessary.

This may be a tough one. Through a button, I am trying to create a popup window displaying an excel chart, viewed always on top, dynamically linked to my spreadsheet data. The idea would be to see it evolve as I input data, and be able to open as many as I want. I guess I could create a macro to paste/clear the graph, but a pop up window would appear more professional and more user friendly.

I have a userform that loads with when excel starts. The workbook has a second and third sheets with names from A1 to A20. The form is used to add information to the first sheet. There are two list boxes on the form the reference via VBA the names on sheets 2 and 3. When form initially opens the list boxes are void of data. I also have a macro that reopens the form without having to close the workbook. When I close the form and reopen it the list boxes are populated as they should be - so the list boxes are working correctly just not being populated initially. In the open form module I have code that sets the rowsource for the data on sheet 2 and 3. Why the userform does not populate when the workbook initially opens?
Here is the code in my open userform module
Sub openuserofrm()
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("VILLAGEvisits").Activate
Sheets("VILLAGEvisits").Unprotect Password:=""
Sheets("OldVisits").Unprotect Password:=""
[Code] ....

I have a form button on a worksheet which calls a specified macro, is it possible to have the text which shows on the button, dynamic? I have created a template excel file, which the user needs to set up as they see fit. I have a separate page which is an 'admin' page where they can customize the narrative in the main template, which includes being able to change the text on form buttons on sheet 1. I have tried with this: Sheets("Approvals").Object("Button 1").Text = Sheets("Admin").Range("e14").value
This unfortuantely results in a "run time error '438' Object doesn't support this property or method". From that i would assume this function is not available, but i'm hoping someone may know a way around it??

I trying to do a sheet with one combo box (dropdown list) where I want the user to be able to choose "add rows" to make more boxes appear. My idea to solve this was to put all the boxes in the sheet, and then create a macro that either hides or shows the rows with the extra boxes. Now I have a problem that hiding the rows just does that, and only that. The rows disappear, but the combo boxes stay visible (but ends up on top of eachother).

I would to say thank you to RoyUK for helping me out with this DependantlistBoxes where a Userform has two columns. Now I've manupilated a Userform so that whenever I double click on the cell, the selected text from the second box in Userform is pasted to the cell in the next column to the right.
But I what I really want it to do is to past the text fromt the first box in Userform to the active cell and when move to the second box in Userform, the selected text will be paste to the cell on the right.
Like I double click on B3 (in "Fullarton") sheet, a userform appear. When I choose CB from the first box in userform, it should paste in B3. Then when I choose Electrician from second box in userform, Electrician should be paste in C3.

I have a user form with 4 list boxes that I'd each like to populate with their own lists of cities according to time zone - one list box for each time zone (ET, CT, MT and PT).
I attached a worksheet that has some code from another project I got from another thread on this forum, but it needs to be modified (or whole new code written) for this application, including initializing the control buttons.
The code I'm borrowing has a slight glitch in it, where if you select the last item in the list box to hide, that item will be missing from the list the next time the user form is opened, and you'll then have to manually unhide that column.

I am using a ComboBox to get a value from the user. The code below will then check my worksheet and if it finds the value will place it into my ListBox.
Dim x As String
myvalue = ComboBox1.Value
A = 5
Do
x = Sheet1.Cells(A, 4).Value
If x = "" Then Exit Sub
If x = myvalue Then Me.ListBox1.AddItem x
A = A + 1
Loop Until Sheet1.Cells(A, 4).Value = ""
The problem is how to alter this code to place the value from column 5 into the ListBox as well as the Value from column 4

I have a Validation drop down box (column B) and a defined range drop down box (column E linked to the Totals tab with A2-A31 defined as Products) that I need to activate everytime data is added to a new line in column 'A' and cells in column 'B' or 'E' are selected. Additionally, they need to activate if the cells in column 'B' or 'E' are selected for any of the old data so changes can be made. This will help reduce the overall file size and calculation time for a year's worth of data.
There is already some code on the worksheet that looks like it can be adapted if someone knows how to code in the drop down boxes.
