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?
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 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.
A lot of people seem to have been having troubles with the fact that if you try to use controls in a class with the "withevents" keyword, some events (like Enter & Exit) are not included in the tracked events. I have been having some troubles with this myself & have not yet seen any particularly satisfying workarounds to this problem.
So here is an idea I just had, I have not made any attempt yet to implement it & so have no idea how complicated doing so would be, but I thought I would just put it out here & get some feedback on the idea before I spend any real time working on it.
The idea is to create a blank, transparent label that covers the entire form, monitor the Click event of this label, & pass it back to the normal controls on the form as necessary. Does this sound doable, or do you all think it would be merely an exercise in futility? If anyone has any better suggestions for how to work around this lack of events,
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 need to test what control will receive focus after the exit event this test needs to be in the exit event so i am able to validate and cancel only if focus will be the enter button
Private Sub myTextBox_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean) If NextControl.Name = "EnterButton" Then DoMyValidationTest 'and other stuff, such as set TabIndex Else 'do nothing End If End Sub so what should "NextControl" actualy be???
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'm having some trouble getting control ENTER & EXIT events to fire properly when having controls embedded on frames within a userform. I'm using Excel 2003, 2007, & 2010. Here's the userforms I'm working with:
With FRAME:
Without FRAME:
In both cases, the DESCRIPTION field is disabled. The selectable controls on both are a combo-box, textbox, listbox, & 2 buttons. On the FRAMED version, the combo-box & textbox are contained on a FRAME.
Here's the code, same on both userforms:
Code: Option Explicit Private Sub cmbRecipes_Enter() ListBox1.AddItem "ENTER - " & cmbRecipes.Value End Sub Private Sub cmbRecipes_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean) ListBox1.AddItem "EXIT - " & cmbRecipes.Value End Sub
All this is doing is posting a message to the listbox when the combo-box ENTER & EXIT events fire. This works as expected without the FRAME, ENTER is shown when the combo-box is entered and EXIT is shown as focus is moved to another control. But when running it on the FRAMED version all I get is a single ENTER event recorded regardless of how I move the focus through the control set.
Another oddity is that if I have more than 1 control that can receive focus on the FRAMED version, it appears to work correctly.
I would like to call upon a function until a certain criterion is fullfilled. Then, I would like to have the result returned to me and exit (all) open functions. For value1 = 1 and value2 = 10 I expect value1*value2 = 100. Instead, the routine returnz zero. What is the logical flaw in the code below.
Function testfunction(value1, value2) If value1 = value2 Then 'Calculating the difference testfunction = value1 * value2 Exit Function ElseIf value1 < value2 Then value1 = value1 + 1 Call testfunction(matrix1, matrix2) End If End Function
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!
In a Multipage form, the first page contains 2 DTPickers. These show the date value from the specified excel worksheet cells and update the cells accordingly if the user changes the dates with the TDPicker. These work perfectly.
If I place another DTPicker control on another page of the Multipage though, it leads to a run-time error.
As an example, the code for 1 of the successful DTPickers on the first page:
Private Sub DTPickerAccountsStartDate_CallbackKeyDown(ByVal KeyCode As Integer, ByVal Shift As Integer, ByVal CallbackField As String, CallbackDate As Date) End Sub
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() Application. ScreenUpdating = False ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Cover").Activate DTPickerAccountsStartDate.Value = Format(Range("B6").Value, "dd/MM/yyyy") End Sub
There are no errors in any of the cell references etc and the formatting of the DTPicker controls is exactly the same in all cases.
The tabstrip and multipage object curiously resemble one another, in that they both have tabs, and hence naturally arouses one's curiosity and raises this question.
I searched this forum, and found one thread, from several years ago, where some senior members shrugged and said they had never used it. I found little in google, after an hour of searching, except for a Microsoft example which I completed and attached here.
I still have questions in my mind about exactly when and how one might use a multistrip, but this example helps me a lot, so I felt it might help others as well.
I am anxious to hear your tips and caveats about multistrips.
A multistrip appears to be a handy way document related options for the programmatic alteration of the functionality of some aspect of an application, such as color, or font, or perhaps output device.
