I have a user form with textboxes on it, in some text boxes, text should be entered, but in some number should be entered, and in some date is required, but How can control the entry, if some one type text instead of number, then it should not be accepted. NOTE: Before I have seen such example here, that uses the KeyPress event.

But if the value in F4 is CCP, I need H18 to allow anything. I'm having trouble adding this to the first part.
I need to create a Drop Down Menu that gets it's data from another group of cells. I have done this before but it has been sometime ago and now I can't remember.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen you want to use Data Validation to limit the entry of the number of characters to a cell does this apply only to the cell that you are entering the characters or can it also apply to a cell that contains a LEN(A1) formula, for instance? Also,does the Data Validation limitation function includes spaces as well? Will the message appear while you are entering the characters (when it has reached the limit) or will it wait until you have hit Enter?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a userform with two pop up calendars (calendar1 and calendar2). Calendar1 is the "start date" and must be a Monday. I have this portion working fine. If they select a date other than a Monday an alert message will pop up notifying the user a Monday must be selected. I need to limit the user to a date selection in calendar2 to be a minimum of three years out from Calendar1. I would like an alert message to pop up in Calendar2 should the user select a date inside of my three year minimum. Am I even in the ballpark with the following:
If Trim(Calendar2.Value) < (Calendar1.Value + "not sure here") Then
Calendar2.SetFocus
MsgBox "Select End Date 3 Years Out From Start date", vbExclamation
content from form is captured via formulas to a CIMLoad format on another tab
Users keep entering four to six decimal places in weight value
I need to limit the cell to either whole numbers, or a maximum of 2 decimal places
The cell is formatted to two decimal places, but when you activate the cell it shows the full value they entered, and so does my CIMLoad
How to I limit the value in this cell to whole numbers or numbers with a maximum of two decimal places?
I have a section of my program that asks for board scores (point value is 6-10 in increments of .5) I have set up a data validation so that users can only enter those specific values. Problem is, none of the values can be more than 1 point from each other. (the part I have yet to figure out)
Example, if the first value is a 6.5 the second is 7.0 and the third is a 9.0, I need the data validation to display an error because the 9.0 is beyond the one point spread.
Summary: Display an error message if any of the points are more than 1.0 point from another.
is there a way to lock certain cells to allow data entry but not allow data to be removed.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need the attached spreadsheet to lock cells after data is entered into cells E13-G74 and the page saved. It will be opened twice daily and saved. Also im not sure if it makes a difference but I would like all other cells outside this range locked except for C5, C6, C7 AND C8. I have seen several threads on the topic but am extremely new to using VBA and cannot make anything work.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have an excel spread sheet with the page title "Main". I would like to add a macro by pushing a button and a window pops up. It will have 4 columns or 4 questions. The first question will ask what is the date? You enter date, next question asks, What is the fundamental? You enter the fundamental. Next question is what is your name? you enter name and next question is enter what you need fixed. Once you enter that and press finished, the data is then place in the spreadsheet. All rows shift down 1 spot. B2 answer is posted in B2, question 2 answer is placed in C2, question 3 answer is placed in D2 and question 4 is answered in E2.
Each time someone presses the NEW ENTRY button this window pops up asking these 4 questions. The answers are then posted in cells B2 through E2 after shifting the entire page down 1 row.
I'm creating a spreadsheet for work, which for security reasons requires certain information to be locked except to administrators. However the cells need to be open for inputing information for everyone until the administrator enters specific data.
Completed Date Time W/R No. Acc. No. Priority? Vunerable? Comments Closed Date/Time Yes 14/04/09 11:30:00 1234567890 8890976 Yes Yes N/A 14/04/2009 11:30
What I am looking to happen is once an adminstrator selects 'Yes' from the drop down menu on the Completed column, for that row of data to be locked for editing, unless unlocked later by an adminstrator.
I've got six columns with drop-down lists in every cell. I don't want column six to be selectable if the first five drop downs don't have data in them too.
Equally, I want the data in column six to be undone if columnns 1-5 are then unselected. Can I do this?
I know that using data validation or VBA is an option but I'm not sure exactly how to set it up this way. I also don't want anyone screwing with what can and can't be entered according to these rules - I want to keep it watertight!
I am looking to create a macro that will create a new sheet when data is added on a summary sheet. Example.
1. Summary sheet called "Variations" contains columns that will contain the information needed for new sheet (Columns A to D)
2. When data is entered on "Variations" sheet: Column B, then macro automatically creates new sheet renamed to e.g. VO1 (Number used on "Variations" tab) and is a copy of "Master" tab.
3. Data entered in Column A to D on "Variations" tab is automatically entered onto new sheet created (e.g VO1). Shown is blue on attached file. Additional data is updated on "VO1" sheet and this then links back to "Variations" tab
For example in this formula I typed in WWW as the max:
=SUMPRODUCT(($F$5:$WWW$5>=C2)*1,($F$5:$WWW$5<=C3)*1,ABS($F$6:$WWW$6))
If I try to type in a value higher than WWW it will give me an error. I was just trying to put in an amount that I would never hit within the row.
In the range A1:H89 I have expanding and retracting values - all of which is determined by the numbers in column A. Column A is simply A1+1 copied down. The value of A1 is determined by the value of another cell, based on age. If the value in column A exceeds a specific figure (let's say 50), formulas in columns B - H result in answers of "" (this is "nothing"?). Assume that the value of 50 is reached in A20. All cells from A21 (inclusive) down, including B21 - H21, will have the values "" in them and show up as nothing on my screen. When I print, I'd like to only print those cells where data is, i.e. cells A1:H20.

I have a workbook with 3 sheets. Sheet 1 contains a month of data with Customer Name and Product Code, and quantity shipped (columns A, B, and C). Sheet 2 contains Product Code and quantity produced (Column A and B). In Sheet 3, I have the customer name listed once by running a pivot table against the data in Sheet 1. I need to show the quantity produced for each customer in Sheet 3 but not exceed the quantity produced for that Product Code in Sheet 2 even if the quantity shipped was greater. For example:
Sheet 1
Customer A - 100 shipped of Product Code X
Customer B - 200 shipped of Product Code X
Sheet 2
Product Code X - 150 produced
Sheet 3
Customer A - 100 total
Customer B - 50 total
Customer B would only be allocated 50 as there was only 150 produced and Customer A was allocated 100 of the total 150 produced, leaving 50 to allocate to Customer B.
I am trying to define/name a range in vba. The range will always start in the same place, but as more information is appended to the data set it comes from, the more (or less) rows it can populate. I want to limit the length of the range because I am using it in a data validation drop down list and i do not want to see all of the blanks at the bottom of the list.
Checking the "Ignoe blanck cells" box in data validation did not make the spaces disappear, probably because there is data in an adjscent column that goes much further down the worksheet.
My current vba is:
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="Date", RefersToR1C1:= _
"=Input!R4C4:R65536C4"
I want it to be the range that would highlight if I placed my cursor in R4C4 and hit Ctrl+shift+Down Arrow
I have a user form that writes data from textboxes 1, 2 and 3 into the next empty row in a speadsheet but what i want to do is write the data into rows 1 to 100 then start again at row 1 overwriting the data. The reason is that i have the rows linked to a graph and want to continually show the last 100 results and never have to manually delete old data.

have created a list obx using data validation. My question is, is there a way to limit the data available on the list.
Example: sheet 1
A1 A2 A3
Address A
address p
address s Date
Sheet 2
has data validation list that consists of all of A1 a named range called "address". Everything works great.
I now want to be able to limit the available choices in the list depending on what cell the user is in
example: if user is in sheet2 a1, i only want them to be able to pick address that have an "A" or "p" in cell A2 on sheet 1
I tried to acomplish this using conditional formatting, I format my named range with different colors, but the colors do not carry over to the data validation list on sheet2.
I am trying to limit the format of data to all cells in a column to 2 letters followed by 6 digits. The letters and the numbers are not required to be the same, but the person entering can only enter in that format.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a macro that runs every 15 minutes and stores data into a table. This table is attached to a chart and auto updates with the new data every 15minutes. The table will house historical data over time, however I only want the chart to reflect the last 96 entries (15min data points over 24hours). So, once i have enough data my table will be A2:A97. When A98 is populated, i want the data in A2 to be removed from the chart only.
Here is a breakdown:
A2:A97 is currently displayed on the chart.
I enter new data into A98.
The chart will now display A3:A98.
I enter new data into A99.
The chart will now display A4:A99.
I enter new data into A100.
The chart will now display A5:A100.
and so on.
How I can accomplish this? Does this need to be done in VBA?
I have three codes (P, /P, P/) that could be entered in range H5:P5. P is counted as 1; P/ and /P are both counted as ½.
I have the following formula in D5:
=COUNTIF(H5:S5,"P")+COUNTIF(H5:S5,"P/")/2+COUNTIF(H5:S5,"/P")/2
I entered the following formula for data validation:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(H5:S5="P"))+SUMPRODUCT(--(H5:S5="P/")/2)+SUMPRODUCT(--(H5:S5="/P")/2)
Is there a limit to the number of entries in a validation list? I have a list that contains about 300 entries, but the drop-down list only shows 246 entries. I am sure that the references are correct.
View 2 Replies View RelatedCan I limit the text length in a cell that contains a formula? You may say "Limit the text length in the input cell". That can't be done because the formula in the resultant cell takes text from two other cells in addition to the input cell. I need to limit the overall text length to, let say, 50 characters.
