Pass A Variable To The Form Code
Jun 8, 2009
I have a spreadsheet with about 30 charts on it that I would like to attach a macro to which opens the chart in a form. I've figured out how to do this last part, but am stuck on how to pass a variable to the form code which tells excel which chart to copy. Essentially what I'm doing creating a macro for each chart which would run when that chart is clicked on. This macro is identical for each chart except for the name of the chart being passed.
Sub Chart1_click()
ShowChart "Chart 1"
End Sub
Sub ShowChart(c As String)
frmChart.Show
End Sub
In the UserForm_Initialize code located in the userform module, I'd like to call the code which saves and loads the image of the clicked on chart. But here's where I'm stuck. How do I pass c to the code in the form module...e.g, how to pass c to UserForm_Intialize and to ChartZoom? Here's what I have so far...
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize(c As String)
ChartZoom c
End Sub
Private Sub ChartZoom(c As String)
frmChart.Show
Dim Cht As Chart
Set Cht = ActiveSheet.ChartObjects(c).chart
Dim CName As String
CName = ThisWorkbook.Path & "cht.gif"
Cht.Export Filename:=CName, FilterName:="GIF"
imgCht.PictureSizeMode = fmPictureSizeModeZoom
imgCht.Picture = LoadPicture(CName)
End Sub

I have created a custome User Form with three option buttons inside a frame. How do I set the value for each button and then how do I pass that value back to the code that opened the form (after closing the form upon a selection?
Sub Test2()
UserForm1.Show
Select Case List
Case 1
Range("b1").Value = "List 1"
Case 2
Range("B1").Value = "List 2"
Case 3
Range("B1").Value = "List 3"
End Select
End Sub
in the form I have the following code associated with each of the butons (but I do not think I have it right). Isn't there a way (becasue I have them in a frame) to shorten the code?.................

The first goes through a directory and opens all the files.. after it opens a given file it goes off into a sub-routine to process the data in that file.
I am trying to create a counter in the first sub-routine and then pass that value into the second sub-routine to tell it to put the values out on the next row down.. so the first time through it puts the values out on row 1, next time it puts them out on row 2, etc.

I have code in a userform that shows another userform with a text box. When the user types text there and presses OK, I want that userform to close (which it does fine), and return back to the original userform (which it does fine), but I want the typed text to be stored in a variable that the code in the original userform can use.
I tried declaring a public variable, "Rresponse1", in each userform's procedure, but that doesn't work. I test for the content of the variable afterward in the original userform and it is empty.
In the original userform I have:
SaveList.Show '(this is the second userform)
MsgBox "This is response1: " & Response1 '(to test if the variable is being passed)
In the userform SaveList, in the Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() procedure, I have:
Response1 = SaveList.ListName.Text
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
MsgBox Response1 '(to test the variable, here it shows the text fine)
Unload SaveList
How do I get the Response1 variable to keep its content when control is passed back to the original userform?

I want to work on a range
range("A1:B100")
The number 100 (in B100) comes from another varibale M
Now how do I write the range so that I don't have to write 100. I want to pass on the variable in the range.
the code should look somewhat like
Range("A1:BM").
I don't know how to pass this variable M onto the range.

I created the following sub to signal when a macro in Module 1 is complete:
Public Sub Done()
Dim complete As Boolean
complete = True
End Sub
I placed this just before the end sub in the macro for which I am trying to detect that it has finished executing:
Call Done
End Sub
In the Sheet 1 Module, the code fails at the statement:
If complete = True Then
The error returned is "Variable not defined." All three subs are declared as Public. Why does the Sheet1 sub not recognize the variable "complete" from the Module 1 macro?

I am trying to pass two variables RARD and CARD from Sheet1 'change selection' subroutine to the 'Set ARD Command button click' subroutine. The variable value remain empty and it gives me a 1004 error when I try to execute this line of code:
[Code] ....
What I am trying to do is put the text value 'ARD' in the cell on sheet1 which was the original cell I clicked on to open the userform2. To do this I click on the 'Set ARD' button on the userform2 which is then suppose to hide the userform2 and put the 'ARD' text in the selected cell on Sheet1.
I have attached the workbook for review : Therapy Tracker - Tester V2.10 - deleted logo.xlsm

Following statement works for me:
bdcTerm1 = ThisWorkbook. Sheets("ws2"). Range("A1").Value
But instead I want to parse through 50 rows and dynamically get the value instead of using a static Range("A1"). So I am trying to do the following:
For Row = 1 To bdc_rows
bdcTerm1 = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("ws2").Cell(Row, 1).Value
bdcTerm2 = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("ws2").Cell(Row, 2).Value
Next Row
But I get errror.

I have a macro that when it runs presents a form that gives the user an option to skip the calculations or continue. If they click Skip then it continues the 'Next CE' . My problem is I can't get the Boolean value to pass from the form to the macro. Here is what I have
The main macro
Sub Dividend_MF()
For Each sh In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets( Array("G&I", "Growth"))
For Each ce In sh. Range("a5:a" & sh.Range("a65536").End(xlUp).Row)
If Not IsEmpty(ce) And Not (IsError(ce.Offset(0, 56))) Then
If ce.Offset(0, 56) = "X" Then

I have a macro that nicely select the named range that the active cell is in. I want to chain on to that macro a macro that has a parameter a range with that active selection. I dont see how to "take" the active selection on the worksheet from within the macro and pass it to another. I assume I could change the cellInRange macro to return a range, however I dont yet see how to do that.

This is the code after editing to make it more clear
Public Sub 1()
BookA= activeworkbook. name
BookB=Application.Workbooks.Add
Workbook(BookB).activate
End Sub
Public Sub 2()
BookB=Activeworkbook.name
With BookB. sheets(1)
.range("A1")=BookA.sheets(1).range("B1")
End Sub()
At the end of public sub 1, BookB is the active workbook. What I want to do in public sub 2 is to copy some data from BookA to BookB. Unfortunately, when moving from public sub 1 to public sub 2, BookA needs to be defined again. The code above is the code that I use in my add-ins. I figured out for non add-ins code I can define BookA with thisworkbook.name when BookB is active as I before work with BookA. This does not apply for add-ins as thisworkbook will refer to my add-ins code. Is there anyway of keeping definition of BookA is constant from one public sub to another public sub? This is simplified code. In fact, I can't merge public sub 2 with public sub 1 due to some reason which I don't say it here.

I have come up with the following formula to pull sums of data by month. I am using this because it is inconvenient to use the DSUM formula (I can't put all the criteria together in a simple way):
{=SUM(IF('Sheet1'!$B$2:$B$20="Person1",IF( DATE(YEAR('Sheet1'!$A$2:$A$20),MONTH('Sheet1'!$A$2:$A$20)+1,)=C2,'Sheet1'!$D$2:$D$20,0),0))}
I would like to, in a macro, assign a variable to this result - but cannot figure out the VBA code for it.

I am trying to pass information that is filled by user in a userform into an excel sheet. Let's say a user would click on a control button in a userform and Macro would ask him what value to store for the first variable. If user clicks one more time then Macro would identify that it was a second click and ask what value to set for a second variable. It is easy to do with limited number of variables, but is it possible that the variable which stores a number of clicks would become a number for variable to store the value?
1 click - a1 = ..
2 click - a2 = ..
....
n click - an = ..
If not possible - which way to search a solution?

I'm just starting to experiment with passing values between workbooks and between modules and so far I've managed to get it working. However, I now can not run the receiving module independently because of the passed value ? Let me explain ...
I use start/end dates within my modules to create date sensitive reports. I have several files (for different departments) and each file has a module called "AbsenceChecker", I have been working on a way to create a Report Master workbook to run and amalgamate the "AbsenceChecker" module from each department.
Sub RunAllLoaders()
Dim AbsenceStart As Date, AbsenceEnd As Date
Dim PassVar1 As Date, PassVar2 As Date
Dim DateStart As Date, DateEnd As Date
On Error Resume Next
'start of data validation script continued in private sub.
GetValidDates FromDate:=PassVar1, _
ToDate:=PassVar2, _
MinDate:=DateSerial(2007, 1, 1), _
MaxDate:=DateSerial(2007, 12, 31)
Excel.Application.EnableEvents = False
Workbooks.Open Filename:="R:RostersRosterALPHA.xls"
Application.Run "RosterALPHA.xls!AbsenceChecker", PassVar1, PassVar2
End Sub...................

Why when I want to use a varaible with a value like that 2.1, 0.9, 3.5 in a code to create a formula gives me an error? How to get it work?
Sub Code1()
Dim k As Double
k = 2.1
Range("h11").Formula = "=" & k
End Sub
Strange, but it works well if k is an integer with no Decimal Fraction, like 1, 2, 5, 11 ..

I understand that the SumProduct doesn't have the same capabilities in VBA as it does in worksheet formulas. I am trying to construct it in an evaluate statement in VBA but the problem is I am using it in a userform, so the conditionals are passed from two combo boxes. Here is the worksheet formula
Code:
=SUMPRODUCT((Table1[Home]=C3)*(Table1[Away]=M3)*(Table1[Goals (H)]>Table1[Goals (A)]))
The values C3 and M3 refer to a cell known as "Home" & "Away". It's comparing to the two teams selected to a table with game stats to show wins and losses. The user form has a combo box list with those teams. Combo Box 1 passes to a variable known as hTeam and Combo Box 2 passes to a variable known as aTeam. I need those values passed through to C3 and M3. Here's what I constructed but get a type mismatch
Code:
Evaluate("=SUMPRODUCT((Table1[Home]=" & chr(34) & hTeam & chr(34) & ")*(Table1[Away]
=" & chr(34) & aTeam & chr(34) & ")*(Table1[Goals(H)]>Table1[Goals(A)]))")

I am running a macro which ends up showing the save as dialog box. The name is correct (data) and the type is correct (XML files) but no matter what I try the file path is not right. Here is the section of
sDataFile = Application.GetSaveAsFilename("data.xml", fileFilter:="XML Files (*.xml), *.xml")
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set js = fs.CreateTextFile(sDataFile, True, False)
Set f = fs.GetFile(sDataFile)
sFilePath = f.parentfolder & ""
Set f = Nothing
How do I set the file path? I have already seen lots of answers to this but they are based on changing the path permanently or on there being no dialog box already open. I need total automation with the user not being able to see any of the save process.
