Controlling Multiple Text Boxes On A Form
Feb 18, 2009I 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
Detect Duplicates In User Form Text Boxes
Jun 13, 2009I 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.
User Form Basics - Populating Text Boxes
Sep 23, 2009I 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.
Percentage Formats In User Form Text Boxes
May 1, 2008I 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)
Creating Form: Fill All The Information Across That Row Into Other Boxes On The Form
Nov 5, 2006I 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.

Jul 1, 2008Im 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.
Link 2 Form Control Boxes
Mar 15, 2009I 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.

Dec 8, 2009I 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.
Method Of Interleating Multiple Dropdowns Or Form Control Boxes
Apr 18, 2008I 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.
Copying Check Boxes Formatting?
Sep 3, 2013I am working on a check box based list for work. The requirement is for the check box to be linked to the cell that it is in and then for conditional formatting to be done so that if the box is checked it goes green and if it is blank it goes red. This is fine for individual cells, but when i try and copy the formatting and cells throughout the worksheet it links all the cells back to the original cell.

Feb 18, 2014I am creating an income calculation sheet to qualify my borrowers. I have different "types" of income in regards to hourly pay, bonus pay and overtime pay (examples)
I am using check boxes for my worksheet for the income that my underwriters want to use (example OT plus regular pay or Bonus plus regular pay or just regular pay alone can all be different options) they would then just check the box for the combo they want to use. (my check boxes came from the developer tab and I have them formatted to show true/false for checked or unchecked.)
Intro to my problem: We have 3 separate time frames for each type of pay. (I have 2012 Bonus, 2013 Bonus and then 2014 year to date bonus.....and the same for Overtime pay and regular pay, etc.)
My underwriters can only use ONE of the 3 yearly options.
Excel problem: Im thinking I need to go conditional formatting for this, but I need something to pop up if they accidentally have 2 boxes checked in one category. (So if they accidentally mark a box to use 2012 OT AND 2014 OT year to date, thats a problem and will throw the #'s off) So Im thinking there is some way to conditionally format my true/false results from my check boxes. If 2 out of 3 say true, the cell should black out or something along those lines....
I attached a screen shot of how my worksheet looks as of now : Income example excel forum.docx‎

I've tried several variations with no results. (perhaps it's to extensive for my modest needs)

Search Function Using 2 Text Boxes?
May 22, 2014 I am wondering if the user can use 2 boxes to search and populate the record.
Ie./ Box 1= Vehicle Registration Box 2= Date
This sheet will be used throughout each month and each vehicle registration may have more than one record that month
So I need the user to be able to input the vehicle reg and for the form to populate the relevant record.
I current have a Unique reference which is a combo box that once you select it auto populate the record but this will take forever having to populate ach record to find which one the user is looking for.
How To Change Text In Saving Boxes
Mar 26, 2014I have a file that another person created and instead of traditionally saving, the only way to save file is by hitting X in top right corner and then a series of boxes pop up directing the user on what to do. I looked at macros within file and couldn't find anything really relating to the saving functions of document. This is a complex document and I'm starting to think that it isn't a macro. Is there any area in excel that allows you to adjust save settings? All I'm trying to do is change the wording in these pop up boxes but cannot find the source. Attached is screen shot of first box that pops up.

Mar 4, 2009I made up a form of 30 text boxes to simplify entering data, but seem to be having a problem inserting it easily back into my excel file.
I would like to use a simple Do While loop to shorten my code but can't seem to change my text box correctly.
My text boxes all have names like this txtap1run11, txtap1run12, txtap1run13...
As you can see all I need to do is change the last number of the text box name.
I can't figure out how to do that though. I came up with this, I don't have the do while loop in.
