Multiple Pull-down Menus
Mar 1, 2010
I have the following fields:
Manufacturer:System:Part Number:Material Description:
I want to make each field a "pulldown menu".
For simplicity, lets say I have three Manufacturers "A", "B" & "C"
Each Manufacturer has three systems "1", "2" & "3"
Each System has 100 parts "1-001" thru "1-100", "2-001" thru "2-100" & "3-001" thru "3-100". Each part has a corresponding description such as "Horizontal", "Vertical", "cover", etc...
I need to keep all of the manufacturers, systems, parts and descriptions in one excel workbook. I have no preference to how that information is built (tabular, list, etc..) I would like the workbook in which i want the fields above to be separate, so I only have to keep updating one master file that all of our takeoff sheets would be linked to.
when I select a manufacturer, I only want the available systems for that manufacturer to show up in the next pull down menu, then for that system I select I only want the available parts for that system to show up in the next menu. the descriptions need to correlate with the parts I select.

I am using the following code to create a custom command menu.
Sub AddMenus()
Dim cMenu1 As CommandBarControl
Dim cbMainMenuBar As CommandBar
Dim iHelpMenu As Integer
Dim cbcCustomMenu As CommandBarControl
On Error Resume Next
Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar").Controls("&New Menu").Delete
On Error Goto 0
Set cbMainMenuBar = Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar")..........................
I want to add a new button control at the bottom of the menu underneath the holiday control but it keeps adding it on the sub menu, which leads off the holiday button control. I want the menu to look like this.
Open Net 2 Access
Add Employee
Edit Employee
Delete Employee
Holidays (3 options on sub menu)
*New Control

I have a 'diet diary' that I have built in excel that has many of the common meals I eat and details calories, carbohydrates, fats, etc and I use it to keep track of what I have eaten in the day.
However, one of the features is that on the front sheet I have lots of drop down menus that I select the different things (example, milk, banana, spaghetti bolognese) which in that puts in the nutritional info. However, each day I have different numbers of items to put in so I have to change the slots that no longer have an item in back to the default value so that it doesn't add calories. What would be ideal is if I could highlight a bunch of boxes at once and then make them all select the 'no-item' option in the drop down box simultaneously rather than selecting them all individually.

From this link: [url]
there is some clever code to create a customized menu in a dynamic Add-Ins section of the Excel ribbon; this section disappears when the workbook is deactivated and re-appears when it is activated. The custom menu has 2 main items each of which can launch a macro. There is also a 3rd main item called "Next Menu" which cascades nicely to a sub-menu. That sub-menu can have several items of its own. Very cool code.
However, I am trying to add a 4th item in the main menu, say, "Next Menu2" which also cascades to a sub-menu. The problem I'm having is when I try to replicate this code to accomplish this, "Next Menu2" appears in the sub-menu of "Next Menu", rather than as a separate (4th) main item below "Next Menu".
I believe there was another post (not sure of the date, but has since expired) which asked basically the same question as mine. There was a reply with code saying "This should work" but when I tried it, it didn't help.

I want to create a submenu to an already existing user defined menu.
After creating and saving the sub menu using Tools ->Customize ,it works fine. But when
I reopen the Excel sheet it is not found.
I could not find any macro related to the original User menu.Also this menu gets displayed after the AUTO OPen macro in my excel has worked. This menu gets displayed for only that workbook and not for others.
I have been trying to find out a way to create Sub menu for that ,but could not?

I have a worksheet entitled 'Data'. In this worksheet there is a table consisting of 4 columns plus relevant data:
TABLE 1:
Project
Benefit Type
Delivered or Enabled
Benefit
PJ1
Financial
Delivered
Saving of $4M over 24 months.
[code]....
I have been trying to create a formula that will enable me to pull data from the 'benefit' column(column D) so that the cell contents populate in a single cell in a table in a different worksheet.
TABLE 2:
Financial - Delivered
Financial - Enabled
Tech - Delivered
Tech - Enabled
Green - Delivered
Green - Enabled
[code]....
So, as an example, I am hoping that a formula can be created which pulls the text from relevant cells in column D when criteria from columns A, B and C are met e.g. Tech benefits that are Delivered in PJ2 would populate cell E3 ('Tech -Enabled') in Table 2 with:
Continued maintenance of hardware.
Increased capacity.

I'm working on a sheet trying to keep track on which client is working with which employee. The first sheet shows tracking for the year and each additional sheet is the month. Basically the Yearly sheet is there so I can quickly control+f "client name" and see which employee he or she is working with.
I attached a simple version of the workbook but basically it basically looks like this: Yearly sheet - Row 1 is the employees name, Row 2 is the month, and the rows after that are the clients name until it gets to the next month. January sheet - cell A1 says client, Cell B1 says employee. I'm inputing the clients in column A and the employee in column B and using this formula for the Yearly sheet (starting in row 3) =IF(January!$B2=Yearly!A$1,January!$A2,"")
This is working for what it's supposed to do, but it's not pretty and leaves a lot of of blank cells. Is there a simpler way of doing this?

I have several excel spreadsheets by which I would like to add together certain values in the column with the same columns of all the other excel spreadsheets. So basically, If one of the values are "SELF" , I would like to calculate how many times that value occurs in all the spreadsheets. Any easier way to organize the data to be able to do this also.

Instead of trying to explain my challenge, the attached workbook should be self explanatory. My answer is surrounded by the box. I need a formula that would automatically provide this output.

I had a friend attempt to help me with this issue but he couldn't figure it out. He suggested that I tried asking around here.
Here is what I am trying to accomplish:
(I am happy to email anybody the spreadsheet to help out with this description)
1. There are two spreadsheets. One spreadsheet with about 25 tabs (one for each store number) and one spreadsheet with one tab and about 1400 lines of information that is sorted by store number. To preface, this 1400 line spreadsheet can be 900 lines one month and 2500 another month, so it fluctuates.
2. From this spreadsheet sorted by store, I will highlight, cut and paste into the corresponding store tab on the first spreadsheet. Also, at any given month, the information fluctuates, it can be 15 lines for one store one month and another month it could be 5.
3. Once I am done cutting and pasting it all into each seperate tab, I have a 26th tab that I am looking to create a button that will then pull all that information into the 26th tab.
I know - first question is why would you want that? You already have all the information from that original spreadsheet. Well, in these store tabs, I have everything perfectly formatted a certain way and I only really cut and paste the information that I need from the 2nd spreadsheet.
I have a spreadsheet that my friend claims he got close to working it out.
Just to add, I would need this button to take into account that the information in each tab fluctuates and also that it is easy to add a tab if I add stores.

I have a spreadsheet with 12 tabs (one for each month of the year). What I need is a macro/function that on execution will pull all rows from each sheet that has the word "overdue" in cell E from E9 down. I need the whole row of data being taken into a new sheet.
So for example, in each sheet there could be the word overdue appearing in 30 out of 500 rows I need those complete rows (A to Y) being put into another sheet for ease. At the moment I am filtering each sheet and copying and pasting into a new sheet for each bloody sheet (LOOOONG way).
The worksheets are titled: Jan 14, Feb 14, March 14, April 14, June 14, July 14, Aug 14, Sept 14, Oct 14, Nov 14, Dec 14

I am trying to replicate a payslip from a list of data on a worksheet.
The list of data contains the employee name, location they worked, and number of hours.
Each employee will work at multiple locations throughout the month, perhaps 10 or so.
The payslip must contain each location worked along with the relevant data, in a list so to speak.
What function can I use to pull this in? Of course if it were one location I would use vlookups to pull in data. As this only returns the top match I would then need a different formula to pull in the second location in the cell underneath?

So I am trying to pull data from multiple sheets. I've gone through the thread, but haven't found an answer yet (or didn't work hard enough). On Sheet1, yellow highlighted column, I am trying to look up the I.D. Code for 36 month residuals. As you can see, I have to use multiple conditions on different worksheets.
I have to use most of Sheet1 columns to find the answer. I just can't figure the formula out.
I don't have Excel 2007, only 2003 I have.

I need a macro which collects data from two files and dumps it into a separate spreadsheet. I need it to prompt the user to select the two files, since the file names may change.
Once a user selects the files, the macro simply opens them, grabs the data (the data sits on a single sheet in each file) and pastes it into a file, and closes the 2 data files.
The Data sits in A7:N20 on both files.

Attached is a master metrics deck, where data needs to be refreshed every week, from two different workbooks.
The catch is, the two parent workbooks would be new versions every week (data would be same format, and style within), but file name would change each week, for eg: for 1st workbook, 'XXX_Weekly_Week24.xlsx' to 'XXX_Weekly_Week25.xlsx' and so on.
for 2nd workbook, 'YYY_Weekly_Week24.xlsx' to 'YYY_Weekly_Week25.xlsx' and so on.
In the master metrics deck, a consolidated vew of some of data from workbook 1 and workbook 2 is presented for each week.
This master file would remain same, and only be refreshed each week (preferably with a button on its sheet "REFRESH!!")
Next, need to manually change cells C2:G2 each week to reflect week titles correctly.
For e.g.: week6 would show week 1 through week 5, but during week7, it needs to show week 2 to week 6. Only last five weeks of data any given time.
The first datarows of each set are conditionally formatted (they are compared with other rows in the set and need to reflect danger values, good values etc) (I have done that already).

Example:
Cell A1 has a drop down with three choices (1,2,3)
User selects option 1
Cell B1 will now have a drop down with options A,B,C
However:
If user selects option 2 from A1
Cell B1 will now have a drop down menu with options X,Y,Z

Having recently started to get involved in Visual Basic I have managed to write some code that has removed all of my menus except for File and Help. In a blind panic I deleted what I think was the offending VB code in a vain attempt to return the menus. This didn't work. I am now stumped.
Also, I managed to change the way the Cell selection works when I press Return. When I press Return, Excel now selects the cell to the right of the one I was in rather than the one below it. Is there a way I can change this back?

I have a workbook which uses the code below to create a new menu upon opening. I have now used this same code in a second workbook to create a different menu. both work OK on their own However if by chance both workbooks are opened at the same time only one menu is shown. Is there a way I can change one of these to create a second menu if the first one is already there?

I would like to make a form where the user has to select from a drop down list several options, and that depending on the pick the drop down list below shows different options. example: For the question "what food do you want to eat?" you can select pasta, pizza or dessert.
Now if that person pics dessert, the 2nd drop down menu should shom him again a number of desserts he has to pick. And again below another one depending on what he chose.
