View 3 RepliesI have a datafeed program that offers multiple DDE link types to retrieve different types of data. After pasting the DDE links into Excel, all works well. However... To modify the links means manually editing upto 12 different array formulas located on different pages then pressing Ctrl + Shift + Enter after each to change the data source being analysed.
I found that I can manually copy and paste a few characters into each linked array formula, Ctrl+Shift+Enter but it needs to be by Macro referring to a couple cells (Say A1, A2) containing the variables that alter the data source being linked to.
I need to make a VBA Macro that refers to these two cells containing text, and modify the 12-odd linked array formulas.
eg. {=SUB33|getlocation!'N,pg,9,vp,A,30'}
In this example Linked Array formula, the bolded PG and 9 would be variables pulled from cell A1 and A2.
All other components of the array formulas stay unmodified, it is only the "pg,9" text that needs to change in each linked array.
I have to fill out two cells (lets say A10 and A11), with the same data taken from a list of given data. The given data is placed in one column.
I have created Combo Box where the ListFillRange is the given data area and in the LinkedCell I tried to write two cells but Excel doesn’t accept list of two cells.
For example, I tried to write in the LinkedCell A10,A11 and A10:A11 and A10;A11 but none of this syntax worked.
I can’t write A10 only in the LinkedCell and then to write a function A11=A10 in cell A11, because in some cases the content of cell A11 will be changed by another Combo Box linked to cell A11 and that Combo Box will override any function that will be written in A11.
I have been working on creating a form in Excel. I have already figured out how to have combo boxes that are dependent on one another. Now I have a question on that. Let's say that my user makes a selection from the first combo box. Clinical Services for example. The second combo box should now show only the values that pertain to Clinical Services (which it does, that part is working fine). So let's say they choose Retail under Clinical Services. However, now let's say that the user changes their mind and they go back and change their selection in the first combo box to Mail instead of clinical programs. The second combo box stays on the selection that they had previously picked (Retail) even though that value does not pertain to their new selection (Mail). How do I refresh this to delete their old selection in the second combo box (Retail)? If they change their mind of the first combo box and select something else the second combo box does display the correct drop down information, it just doesn't clear out the old selection.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet, and I want to place a combobox in a cell, but being able to add values not on the corresponding list. Done almost everything, but cannot find a way to use the position of the cell, so I can dinamicly place a combobox. Ex.- place a combo in a cell, then after you get the value, delete the combo and put it in the cell bellow, etc. In order to do this I need the position of the cell: left, right, height, width.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have one userform with combobox1 and combobox2.
Combobox1 have 5 names to choose from ( Alice, Matt, Carlos, Jennie and Lisa)
Also i have one sheet for each name with personal info on each row.
And every time I choose one name from combobox1, I wanted combobox2 to get that info from the related sheet.
I have a golf teetime reservation spreadsheet. For each tee time there can be up to four players names so I use 4 columns. Times are listed in rows every 10 minutes beginning 6am until 5pm for a total of 66 rows per day. I have a member/customer list that I have on a separate sheet that I've named. I am using the ActiveX combo box next to each possible entry (so 4 columns times 66 rows = 264 combo boxes). It's a little slow and takes a long time to open. I like the ActiveX combo box because it allows me to define the box format and display and it allows search/read/write capability. The idea is the customer calls, I ask what time they want and we arrive upon an available time. I ask for a last name, I click the combo box, type the first letter of the first name and then scroll if necessary to the name and click it to add the name to the time/player cell. If no name in my list we simply type it in and I'll capture it next time I refresh my customer list.
way to dynamically define the linkedcell in the properties so that instead of 264 combo boxes, I might have one combo box that I can click on and then direct my selection to the cell I want it to go into.
I created a spreadsheet with several combo boxes that that is linked to other data.
When this data is sorted, the values in the combo boxes are automatically changed.
Is there any way to prevent the the values to change?
Using the developer tab I inserted an Active X combo box. Under properties I referenced a 'linked cell' that I want the data to appear in. This box works great as long as I keep the sheet open. Once I save and close the workbook and re-open, that reference is lost. It shows #REF! in that field. Why does it lose the reference? I have tried to reference a cell on the same sheet as well as a cell in a different sheet and it keeps the sheet name but not the individual cell.

I've managed to dice this thing into a jagged array by first splitting it using vbLf as a delimiter, and therefore adding those to an array called Lines(). Then I split Lines() up using commas as the delimiter and threw those into a jagged array, let's call it Breadcrumbs()(). I want to throw all the values from Breadcrumbs(i)(6) into an array of its own. Here's my code so far:
Code:
Public Sub CSVparser(file As String)
Dim Lines As Variant
Dim j As Integer
Lines = Split(file, vbLf)
ReDim breadCrumbs(UBound(Lines)) As Variant
For i = 1 to UBound(Lines) - 1
breadCrumbs(i) = Split(Lines(i), ",")
Next i
End Sub
Am trying to get dynamic population of 2nd combobox based on match from criteria in combobox 1.
if column a = bears and column b = colours of bears then
when I select bears in combobox one, combobox 2 would populate with colors of bear.
I am think of having a combobox 1 change event that evaluates each row in a specific range (does it match the criteria?) if so, then add 2nd cell (column b) of that row to the combobox 2.
I know it would probably involve match and offset, add item and loop, but I am not sure what the syntax is.
I need to populate two combo boxes from excel sheet, the data will be like below:
Column A Column B
A 1
A 2
A 3
A 4
A 5
B 100
B 101
B 102
So from the above data, one combo box should hold unique values A & B.
On selecting a value from the 1st combo box A or B, respective values should be populated in 2nd combo box.
So the data should be like below:
If A is selected in the 1st combo box, then 2nd combo box should only show the values 1,2,3,4 & 5.
If B is selected in the 1st combo box, then 2nd combo box should only show the values 100,101 & 102.
Friends I need it in a macro and one important point is, this is dynamic and it is not static and the data can be more.
When I make a comboBox selection from the dropdown menu, the menu stays down until the last statement of the comboBox code is finished. How do I make the dropdown disappear immediately after the selection is made?
View 9 Replies View Relatedtry and achive is when a user selects a item from the 1st Combobox the 2nd Combobox is the populated with the cell that is to the right of the selected item.
for Example if a user selects AAB from combobox1,, Combobox2 should populate with Belly.
Maby using combobox1_Exit for the excercise.
I created a UserForm then linked ComboBox1 to range A2:A, TextBox2 to range E2:E, and ComboBox3 to range M2:M of the same worksheet, named Sheet3. The row contents in Column A, Column E, and Column M are associated. Therefore, when the UserForm is active I want to be able to select a row from Column A in ComboBox1 and have the UserForm pull the contents from the same row of Column E into TextBox2, and Column M into ComboBox3. Here is what I have so far, but its not quite doing it.
Code:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Sheets("Sheet3").Activate
Dim ColARange As Range
[Code].....
I have a table, headers "FirstName" and "SurName".
Further a Userform with 2 Comboboxes "FirstName" and "SurName"
I'd like to choose the FirstName (say Jack) in the "FirstName" combobox, and based on that get the choice of the Surnames of all my Jacks in the "SurName" combobox.
Actually my sheet has much more fields and comboboxes, but i think my problem is just that I do not find a way to populate them dynamically.
How can i Loop through a combobox's values and compare to a string value and then set the listindex of the combobox to that value?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to solve this problem by breaking it down to it's core elements and it seems to hang up at a certain spot but I can't figure out why.
formula is: {=LARGE(IF(AND(Array1+8<20,6-Array1<0),Array2,0),1)}
where: Array1 is a sequence of numbers, say, 2 5 8 11 14 17
Array2 is a corresponding sequence of numbers 1 2 3 4 5 6
the resulting array should return the numbers 0 0 3 4 0 0
and my answer should be 4
instead my answer is 0
when I break it down and select six cells and use the formula:
{=if(Array1+8<20,Array2,0)}
my result is: 1 2 3 4 0 0
and another six cells and use the formula: {=if(6-Array1<0,Array2,0)}
my result is: 0 0 3 4 5 6
when I select a single cell and use the formula: {=large(if(Array1+8<20,Array2,0),1)}
my result is: 4
when I select a single cell and use the formula: {=large(if(6-Array1<0,Array2,0),1)}
my result is: 6
I've tried this method several different ways, even using "Yes" & "No" as my result and then try to match them up. I've tried doing this not using named array and just selecting the cells themselves for the formula. All with the same results.
How do I deal with arrays in vba? Below is a dummy code just to check the array I specified is working:
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet that has 20 columns and 500 rows. I created a VBA macro to loop through the data to hide rows that do not meet certain criteria. After the data is selected I copy and paste those selected rows to another sheet. The macro works well but I would like to use an array to contain the data that I copy and paste to a new sheet. I have been trying to find information on multi deminsion arrays but I have not been able to fully understand how to get the information into the array and then how to get it out again. Most of the examples that I have seen are for two maybe three columns (dimensions). I am hoping that someone could point me in the right direction to get started on this. I also have a few books on Exel VBA but none of them seem to address my question.

I have created a userform in which there are numerous Text and Combo boxes. In ComboBox 1 I have, in effect, a list of named ranges in a spreadsheet.

I attached a xls to this post to explain better.

I copied and pasted Column A into Column C and then removed duplicates. I named Column C 'ValList' and placed it in the RowSource for ComboBox1. What I now want is for ComboBox2 to populate based on my selection in ComboBox1. There are no duplicates in Column B. Duplicates are in Column A.
I also named Column A 'Proc_Grp' and Column B 'ADA_QSI_Desc'
For the properties in Combobox2, I left the RowSource empty. (that's correct right?) Because there's going to be a code that links Combobox2 to Combobox1... I think...
is it possible to perform calculation such as sum,multiply value of 2 combobox and get it shown at 3rd combobox/label at userform initialize stage?
The formula is designed to sum a set of data based on 22 variables between a certain date range. In order to keep the formula manageable, I have grouped the variables into arrays.
EX.
Array 1. - 20 potential choices (Service codes)
Array 2. - 2 choices (pkg types)
Array 3. - 2 choices (volume type)
Array 4. - 3 choices (company names)
Each array (listed horizontally on one spreadsheet) calls a specific column of data to match from a different worksheet. I have no problem if only applying one array but multiple arrays return incorrect values.
I have two 2 Dimensional String Arrays with data. I need to find a way to get the difference between these two Arrays. I am new to VBA, I don't know how to deal with these. I certainly feel that there is some efficient function for doing this. or Is the naive two for lop concept is the only way to go?

I am guessing that I need to some how merge them into one array so I can sort them as one entity rather than sorting two columns separately.
Here is my sample data and the macro I use to pull the data i need for the two arrays. sample.xlsm
