I'm trying to get a multi-selected list box to populate cell A2 with a concatenated list of what is selected; cell link works for single selections only? Is there any code, vba or function that can accomplish this?
I need to create a large dynamic named range for all the people in my church. From this list I would like to enter their offerings to the church in a new column that has auto-complete. Ex. If I type a "P" all of the possible names are shown. Then if I type a "A" the list gets smaller with only a those members whose names start with "Pa"
I have developed a spreadsheet that allows a user to "Autocomplete" a name by doubleclicking on a cell and typing in a few letters of the person's name.
I named the range that I want to appear in my list and I created the combobox in sheet 1, not in a userform. My problem is that when I doubleclick on a blue cell in Sheet 1 and type in a few letters of the person's name, the name doesn't fill into the cell. I have already specified a ListFillRange, so the Combobox knows what I am looking for. For some reason, the drop-down list is hard coded and won't populate the name that the combobox has already found. I don't receive any errors from the code that is already in place. If you could help me figure you how to get the names to populate in the blue cells, I would greatly appreciate it.
Attached is an example. If you try doubleclicking and typing in, say "Doe, John" in one of the blue cells in Sheet 1, you will see his name, but when you hit enter it won't populate. The cell stays blank!
I am trying to create an order form. i have a price list from my local hardware store that i want linked to my order form. i want my order form to autocomplete items off the price list. i have tried a few things but im stumped.
I have a large list of data records, 600+, and would like to use List Validation but find EXCEL's default Validation not appropriate for such long lists. What would be perfect is similar to what you get in Access, when you type in part of the record string required, a drop-down list appears and shows you the record entries that have that string within them and not necessarily in character order, quickly wittling down to the few records that apply and then use your arrow keys to move and select the correct record, etc. Example, I own a salon, and many shampoo ranges have many similar products:
I've been trying to create a form that contains a list with an auto-complete option.
[url]
I've tried it and it kinda works the way I'd like it to except:
1. Excel crashes if you press TAB or Enter after choose your selection.
2. You have to Double-Click on the Validation list tab to bring up the combo box.
If possible, it would be great if Excel didn't crash after pressing Enter or Tab and if the combo box showed up immediately on selecting the validation list cell (or single click).
The VBA code is:
'========================== Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, _ Cancel As Boolean) Dim str As String Dim cboTemp As OLEObject Dim ws As Worksheet Set ws = ActiveSheet Cancel = True Set cboTemp = ws.OLEObjects("TempCombo") On Error Resume Next With cboTemp
how to attach the file here but the website I mentioned contains a sample excel.
[url]
To summarise I'm hoping to create a sheet that:
1. Let's you click on the cell and then type something which causes it to autocomplete.
2. After I've made my selection I can press Enter/Tab/Click somewhere and it confirms it.
3. The rest of the sheet gets populated by results of lookup functions that are dependent on the selections.
I am using the same VBA that is discussed in several threads on the internet to create a combobox on top of underlying excel validation. The most relevant post I have found on this site is linked below, however I am told that it has expired and I can not reply to it so I started this new thread.
Data Validation Autocomplete Via Combobox Modification
The VBA code discussed in the above linked thread is working pretty well in my excel file which has MANY different fields being validated. However, there is a problem that I can not seem to get past. Specifically, the combobox is currently showing the validated data behind it, but will also allow IN-valid data to be entered. Is there a way to stop this and force only valid data to be used (i.e., is there a way to force a "re-validation" on exit from the combo box)?
I like to use the combo box (Active X control). where I need to provide the range/List in the properties. While inputing the value in properties it is disappeared.
My Excel 2007 has "auto complete with a drop down list". When I type in the first character, a drop down list appears listing all the entries in that column tha start with that character. I click on one of the entries and the cell is "auto completed" with that entry. Sure is handy. I try to find that functionally in Excell at work, Office Professional 2010, and no bueno for kaki.
I am trying to write a macro to export a selection to a text file. I have the export to text file down, but can not figure out how to automate the selection. All of the cells that I want to select are the color "lime." The selection will start at B4 and run down to B?. These cells have conditional formatting that color them lime if the adjacent C column contains a "P."
I am trying hard to use excel macro to round up cell value to next complete figure when it reaches to 0.6, however it should show the first five "0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 exactly. I am giving increment of 0.1 digit to A1 Cell, it is going well. I am unable to get the next complete figure when 0.6 comes. Is it possible in macro.
I have a formula that calculates the number of rows in a spreadsheet. I would like the results of that formula to complete a range description. For instance, if the range would be expressed as A1:A20 (for a file with 20 rows), and the result of the formula (the cell enty) for a different file is 35, I would want the range to be expressed as A1:Ax, where x is equivalent to the result of the formula (effectively A1:A35, but expressed with a reference to the cell with "35" in it, not the 35 itself).
I want to add these document properties I created to a cell ("A1" or any of the cells) without doing any VBA programming. Is this achievable in any case?
I have a spreadsheet with date and time values of the format "dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm" in column A followed by some other data in cells of that row.
What I'd like to do is have a macro that will delete a complete row if the time value in column A lies between two times that I can specify in the macro (the dates are irrelvant)
I found this code for an auto-complete function from this website: [url] It works well, but see the web example before using it. You have to name a range MyList with your potential values for it to work.
Currently, you have to click the drop-down arrows to see the potential entries. I want to make it so that after the user enters the first 3 characters it will automatically "drop-down" and show the potential entries. This will save a trip to the mouse and let the user see whether their entry is in the system.
Option Explicit
Dim i As Long
Sub KeyEventOn() For i = 65 To 90 Application.OnKey "{" & i & "}", "'MyValidation """ & i & """'" Next End Sub
I would like to have excel automatically fill an excel cell with a predefined list. For example, if you put the letter l it will automatically include the word large. This is like you do when you fill out a form online. See attachment
I would like to enter a long line of data (text & numbers) into a single cell and have the single cell data populate successive horizontal data fields with automatically. The single cell data would have properties that would correspond to specific properties in the successive fields. The single cell data would remain unchanged. The successive horizontal cells would be looking for a specific piece of the single cell data.
I use this to read cell content, add some text/characters (ie. [ and ]) and change the properties of the complete cell
Sub COMMENT() Worksheets("DVD Lijssie").Activate If ActiveCell.Value 0 Then ' Change all in to ... ... ... ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = ActiveCell.Value & " " & "]" & " " & "[" With ActiveCell.Font .Name = "Arial Narrow" .Size = 8 .ColorIndex = 16 End With End If End Sub HOW can I change this vba-code so it leave's the content of the cell like it is and add some content with the use of let's say TexBox1 and ONLY use different font properties for the newely added content?
can I set a cell in excel so that if a number in a different cell is above a certain number it will turn green and another cell to turn red. I have attached the file.
Although the question I'm about to ask is not related to Excel, but related to MS Word, the coding is similar.
The above code I used to set the properties value, but I get an error highlighting 'storedPath'. I speculate MS Word does not recognized this word. Is there another word or code that I can use to set the value in the MS Word document properties?
I have an issue new client is asking for me to present my reports with a percent complete. We do survey work and all our date is in Ft. The way my file is set up right now i have H5-H100 as incomplete footage, Column I5-I100 has my completed footage and to keep it simple Row 13 A-k show total amount of footage. He wants to see everyday when i submit the % complete based of footage incomplete and footage completed.
Anyone able to help me out with a formula for this? I tried messing with it a little, wasn't really able to get it down and my Excel skills definitely aren't past beginner level.
