How do I determine which control the user is currently modifying on a multipage form (either changing, enterying or exiting the specific control). when I use "userform1.activecontrol" i get "multipage1" as the control name but I need the actual control on the specific active multipage. (also the .TABINDEX is for the multipage regardless of the on-page control) I use a generic data-field change SUBroutine so need the control name (and the TABINDEX) to provide my SELECT CASE. (so every fieldname_CHANGE calls the same SUB [with no parameters])
I am creating a bar inventory/"numbers" sheet for a corporation. I have been searching on and off for a week or so to find an answer or a tutorial on what I am looking to implement into this worksheet. I want to take a userform, with a multipage control, and have the control for each tab, show me a different part of the worksheets. For instance, the first tab would be inventory, the second tab would be ordering, the third tab would be weekly numbers, etc ... I am wondering how to "add ranges to the multipage control in order to make it a "viewer". I have found tutorials on how to print, enter info into the form and save it to the sheets using a button, but I can't find a tutorial on how to implement the control on how to make tabs show the ranges. Can someone point me in the right direction on a tutorial, or maybe if willing a small spreadsheet with a mulitpage control on it, showing how to add the ranges from different worksheets?
UserForm1, page5. From Combobox1 I choose a city and the textboxes give me the values from Sheet3. I'd like to color in green the smallest value. for example, if for LHR I find for A-4214, B-4420, C-3127 => value 3127 to be green. The problem is I have more textboxes in other pages and some of them are colored in green also. Is possible to reffer to these textboxes from page5 only?
I'm using a multipage control on a form that has the style set to fmTabStyleButtons. So it uses buttons instead of tabs. I named one of my buttons (tabs) to Close. Can I set this up to where just pressing the Close button will cause it to exit the app not just go to that page?
i am trying to make the multipage form so that page 2 ,3 is password protected intially the form will open read only, with access to subsequent pages through a password.
Last weeks I've had too few spare moments to answer questions, hope to pick that up soon. I have a strange problem now with some checkboxes on a multipage control.
Please see the attachment.
I want to check all the 5 boxes on a page if the box above is checked, and vice versa, uncheck them all if the box above is unchecked. I use code of Dave Hawley to loop through the checkboxes.
This doesn't work, but oddly enough, it works if I insert a MsgBox in the code.
I have a DTPicker on a multipage form on a userform with the following codes:
sheet1. range("Ac2").value=DTPicker1.value
DTPicker1.value=sheet1.range("AC2").value
The first line of code is in the DTPicker1_change event.
The second line of code is in the userform_initialize event.
This works fine if I move the DTPicker control onto the userform itself, but if I put the control on the multipage form it fails with the following message: Run Time Error 35788
An error occurred in a call to the Windows date & time picker control.
I have a userform with a multipage issue. On page1 I have a command button that formats cells. On page2 I have textbox1 with a fixed number, textbox2 that counts the number of formatted cells (from the command button on page 1) and textbox3 that's going to sum textbox1 and 2. So here's the issue. Lets say I'm on page2 viewing the textboxes, if I switch back to page1 and format additional cells and then switch back to page2, textbox2 does not update with the additional cells formatted. I always need to close the userform and reopen it for the changes to take place.
I've started experiencing a strange problem. The control toolbox keeps appearing when the first page on a multipage userform is activated. I can't figure out what's causing this, and after searching the forum, with no luck, I thought I would see if anybody else is experiencing the same problem, and how to fix it.
I have a userform which has a number of multipage controls nested inside each. So, the parent is Multipage1 with 2 pages. Page 1 of Multipage1 has a second multipage control (Multipage2 which has 4 pages). In Multipage2, page1 there is a 3rd Multipage control (Multipage3 which has 2 pages). In Multipage2, page 2 there is another multipage control (Multipage4 which has 3 pages)...and so on! I know this sounds complicated, but I am trying to get the caption of the selected multipage.
There are commandbuttons in all of the pages, which when clicked need to return the caption name of the multipage where they sit.
I have started the following code, but suspect there must be a better solution:
VB:
With Sales If .MultiPage1.Value = 0 Then Hardware_Purchases_Input.TextBox6.Value = .MultiPage1.SelectedItem.Caption & " - " & .MultiPage2.SelectedItem.Caption & " - " & .MultiPage3.SelectedItem.Caption End If End With
I want to access the Properties of a number of controls in a running form, and these controls may or may not be contained in a Frame or a MultiPage.
In particular I want the Top and Left for these controls, which means I have to first find out if the control is contained in a Frame or MultiPage so I can get the reference for Top and Left. I'm ok with doing this for controls inside a Frame, but the MultiPage is eluding me. I get an error when I try to access these controls and it looks like they are actually owned by the individual Pages of the MultiPage.
how do I find out if a given control is contained in a given MultiPage?
I am trying to set a controlsource property so that when a cell on a worksheeet is changed, the label will also change. However, when I try to set the controlsource I get an error that says :
Could not set the ControlSource property. Invalid property value.
and I've tried it in the properties window of a textbox, and I cannot get either to work. I've also unprotected the sheet first, thinking that might have something to do with it.
I have a userform which uses the tag property of the frame to determine whether a frame is visible (and hence the controls that reside within the frame). A frame contains three combo boxes, and six text boxes. The tag property of the frame matches the number of frames that are visible on the form, so that if the user selects five frames, frames 1 through five become visible and for all other frames visible = false. A frame contains all the data for a single entry. There can be up to fifty frames/ entries that are visible on the form depending on the user selection.
I want to use the visibility property to do two things: first the combo boxes are filled from an array after the user selects the number of frames (or entries). I only want to fill the comboboxes where the frame is visible. The second thing is that I have a function which uses the data from the text boxes and combo boxes as required arguments. Since these are required arguments, I will get a data mismatch error if I try to call it and the controls are empty. Therefore, I only want to call the function if the frame which houses the controls is visible.
Public Sub Visible1(Entry As String) Dim ctrl As Control For Each ctrl In UserForm2.Controls If TypeName(ctrl) = "Frame" And ctrl.Tag <= Entry Then With ctrl .Visible = True End With Else If TypeName(ctrl) = "Frame" And ctrl.Tag > Entry Then With ctrl .Visible = False.............
How do I reference a spin button from a variable that I set.
e.g
Dim objSpn As Object Dim y As Integer
Set objSpn = ActiveSheet.Shapes("spnWCDate")
y = objSpn.Value
This doesn't work, but hope it explains what I want. It's so I dont have to write the whole object name each time I reference it.
ADDED: I've just noticed that this doesn't work even i do reference the object with the full name. I copied this from a forms spin control that I was using, why can't i store the value of the spin button in a variable?
In A1, other code inserts the name of a Form control (textBox, comboBox etc), and in B1 it inserts the name of a Property that is always valid for the A1 control. I want to concatenate these two items to produce a formula in C1 that evaluates the current value of the Property on the running form and continues to update with each recalc. It's ok if I have to force a recalc to get the latest values.
The code feeding the items to A1 and B1 and which will be harvesting the Property values from C1 is running in the same Form that holds the controls being referenced. So if A1= "Label1" and B1 = "BackColor", then in C1 I'd like the same result as if in VBA I said X = Label1.backcolor. I think that what I need is the Evaluate function, but I've read Arron's article on it I just can't seem to make it work here.
I have created a macro that goes from my main sheet to the data sheet and changes all the pivot tables to match. One thing I hate about it is that it is not very fluid. It jumps from the first page to the second (due to the sheets("data") function. Is there a way to make it change the pivot tables on the second sheet without actually have to have the macro select the second sheet?
I have a form with several combo boxes, and they function just the way I like as far as being able to pick from the list, or typing in them and having it show you the next available item in the list as you add letters. Whats happening that I would like to know how to deal with is... as soon as you type a letter that is not in my lookup range it generates an error. "Could not get the list property - Invalid property array index". I don't want people to be able to add to the list, but I would like a msgbox to pop up. Then allow them to go back to the box and try again.
Having problems with trying to get my vba code to access the SpecialCells property. Receiving the following error.... Unable to get the SpecialCells property of the Range class. The section of my code is below that is causing the error. Keeps stopping on the "Selection.SpecialCells(xlsCellTypeVisible).Select" line.
Sheets(" Book Query").Range("A6:I6").Select Sheets("Book Query").Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select Selection.SpecialCells(xlsCellTypeVisible).Select Selection.Copy Sheets("Inventories and Variances").Select Sheets("Inventories and Variances").Range("A7").Select
Within the ComboBox properties, is there anyway to control after "enter" his hit, you move to the right instead of down (similar to the edit under Tools/Options)?
I have created a userform within VBA which has a TreeView Control and a Spreadsheet control on it.
I have populated the TreeView control with data and what I want to be able to do is to drag the nodes off the TreeView control to the spreadsheet control.
I can drag onto a normal worksheet but not onto the spreadsheet control (the no drop mouse pointer keeps showing).
I'm having a problem setting the multipage tab on a userform in VB. It's kinda weird because the code was working fine until recently, where it's suddenly stopped working properly! The only thing I can think of is that I changed versions of Excel to v2003 recently.
I want to not let the user change tabs unless the inputs entered have been error checked. My code is:
Private Sub MultiPage1_Change()
If Me.MultiPage1.Value > 1 Then If Range("inputs!dob") = "" Then Me.MultiPage1.Value = 1 MsgBox ("Please enter your date of birth before continuing.") End If End If End Sub The tab itself changes fine (ie. shows the tab 1 header), but the contents of the tab are actually the contents of tab 2!
I have had some succcess with Userforms, but I have now tried creating multipage ones.
I assumed that when I clicked on page 2 or page 3 of the multipage control, it would take me to a blank canvas, but instead it just replicates what is on Page 1. If I put textboxes and labels on page one, it repeats them on pages 2 and 3. If I delete boxes fropm page 3, they also disapear from 1 and 2!
So im unsure how to put different labels etc onto different pages.
When I drop a multipage control onto a worksheet, the control defaults to showing/having 2 pages. I looked at the various properties and there doesn't seem to be a way to change/add to that number of pages. I know I can add pages to the control programmatically. But what if I don't want to do it that way? What if I want to set the control to show 3 pages instead of 2 at design time? Is there a way to do that?
I'm trying to create a next button from one user form to another. But I can't reach there. I know that I have to use, multi page, but I don't know how!
