Should Change Event Be Used To Auto Populate?
May 22, 2012
I am populating column D with
=IF($C2="","",VLOOKUP($C2,Name_ID,2,FALSE))
Based on selection in column C populated using a drop down list from a range titled PracticeID. Other named ranges, all on sheet titled Validation, are PracticeName and Name_ID (a 2 column range made up of PracticeName and PracticeID). This works great the first time a selection is made in column C. But, of course, if the user needs to change the selection in column C, the value in column D does not change. Would the cell change event be the appropriate place to place this action?

I have attached an example set up with a user form I am building. I currently have the first combo box loading upon the initialize of the user form an from that I choose one of the product types and it gives me a list with all product names associated in the second combo box. Upon a change event in the second combo box I want to populate the 3rd Column with the count of how many of that Product type.
I have a couple different code set ups in the attached sheet and neither works.

Is there a way to write a Worksheet_SelectionChange (ByVal Target As Range) event in module after creating a sheet in VBA? I constantly delete a sheet, then repopulate it with a new one that is empty, but I need to add some code that happens if they should change a particular cell. It worked when I ran it on a worksheet without refreshing, but as soon as I cleared and repopulated the sheet, it was gone. Is there a way to preserve this?

I have the following code, which works perfectly:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim TotalDays As Integer
TotalDays = Range("C65536").End(xlUp).Row + 1
The code points to the next blank cell so the user can input a value. Each time the user enters a value I want to re-run the code so that the colour of the cell changes.
However I also want to perform various calculations on the sheet. However this means the sheet is being changed and so continually repeats my code.
How do I add the following, to my previous code?
Range("E8").Value = Cells(7, 6) * 2.5

I need the tabs of a project action log to auto-populate and auto-delete in a master log. (So when something is added or deleted in a tab it is added or deleted on the master) I use excel a little bit for work and personal finance purposes but I have zero experience with macros or VBA.

I am trying to auto generate a calendar based on two drop down menus - Month and Year.
Once the month and year is selected I want to import all work orders onto the calendar based first on the "Labor Name" found in the list of work tab, then assign each work order for that labor name to the respective date on the calendar for the month.

Basically the situation I have is Sheet2 has many references to cells in Sheet1. Sheet2 is for all intents and purposes a kind of nicely formatted report form, and Sheet1 is the input form.
My ultimate goal is to automatically resize row heights on Sheet2 when cell contents change on Sheet2.
Using a worksheet_change event isn't working I presume because it doesn't see the formula output change as a worksheet change, the worksheet_change is firing only when the input is changed in Sheet1.
how can I capture these formula output changes on Sheet2 (triggered from input on Sheet1) OR is there a way of making a particular sheets rows always adjust in height to best fit?

The first tab I have a summary sheet which I want to auto populate with a sumproduct function, the second tab is where the dates and values are I wish to sum the value if it’s returned in January. I had a go to try sum the entire range see below but it’s not working
=SUMPRODUCT(--('Alex Guest - Scotland'!$G$19:$G$1048576>=1/1/2009),--('Alex Guest - Scotland'!$G$19:$G$1048576<=3/1/2009),--('Alex Guest - Scotland'!$H$19:$H$1048576))
The ultimate goal I am trying to achieve is if there is a date in January in the date returned column and the php column does not contain a value I want it to sum in the summary sheet in January. Hopefully if anyone can advise that would be great then I can look at the formula and try workout to sum only if there is a value in the php column in January

on Sheet 2, I have a very long list of names and addresses. What I am trying to do, is to have the correct address auto populate in Cell B253, depending on which name I type into Cell B252.
The formula has to be able to determine which name is typed in cell B252, i.e., John A Doe, and then auto populate his address in cell B253.

I have a workbook with three sheets:
'Activity' 'Expenses' and 'Income'
On the 'Activity' sheet I:
select the date,
select the description, and
select the category (dependent on the description using indirect)
and enter a value. ($ dollar amount)
How do I make the entered values appear automatically :
- on the correct Sheet for the Description - 'EXPENSES' or 'INCOME'
- in the correct columns (matching) the category
- and in the correct row (matching) the date,
- "add to" - if a value already exists in the cell (more than one transaction on a date)
after they have been hand entered on the 'Activity' sheet?

My macro runs, and it inserts a cell, but in order to record data on a summary page, I need a formula to auto populate, and I've tried having the macro copy/paste and I've tried ActiveCell.Formula...and nothing seems to be working. The formula needs to go into Cell B3.

I have a database in the form of a spreadsheet with the following column headings:
A=DATE (3 letter abbreviation for the month...jan, feb, mar, etc)
B=Client
C=City
D=State
E=Department
F=Contract number
Is there a formula that I can enter in another worksheet (which is being used as a report), that will "grab" the monthly data for all entries for a given month (i.e. "mar"), and auto-populate corresponding cells with each?

I would like to enter a name in E11, and then have G11 populate the name of the company that person belongs to, from a different sheet.
If the person is new, the company name entered into G11 should create a new column on the Companies sheet.
I've attached a dummy sheet which should make it more clear.

I am trying to add some code that will auto populate cells based on entries and list selections. In the attached spreadsheet, when information is added to cells in column 'A', the date should auto populate the cells in column 'C'. When a status of "Complete" is selected from the dropdown box in cell 'B', the date should auto populate in the cell in column "D".
The code partially works in that it will auto populate columns "C" and "D", but the code errors out every time and I have to cancel the error to continue to the next entry.

I use the code below to autocreate a folder and hyperlink to it. It creates a folder when I enter a drivers name in column D it then turns the name into a hyper link to that folder - my problem is I have 2 files in the drivers folder on the C drive - one called wkd.xlsm (a small spread sheet) and one called notes.txt (a notepad document) I would like these files to be automatically added to the folder that is created when I add a drivers name to the D column - I would also like a hyperlink to be created to the wkd file in column H and a hyperlink to the notes file in column X.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
folderpath = "c:drivers"
If Not Intersect(Range("D3:D1000"), Target) Is Nothing Then
If Target.Value "" Then
If Dir(folderpath & Cells(Target.Row, "D") & " " & Cells(Target.Row, "C"), vbDirectory) = vbNullString Then

I have my projection formulas that use the date and age to estimate production on each farm. Basically the age is calculated first and then the production rate is estimated. I have been trying to figure out if, instead of having a formula in each cell, can I use VBA to populate the ages and then the production.
Here is an example:
8/22/2009
FarmAge8/22/09Age8/29/09Age9/5/09Age9/12/09Age9/19/09Age9/26/09Age10/3/09Farm 1
34181351813617937179381793917940177Farm 2
39223402204122042220432204422045218
All the functions I have created work, I just can't have the worksheet auto-calculate due to the total number of cells with functions. Calculating the worksheet takes approx 1 min...
I should be able to adjust any code to the ranges needed, but this example shows the basic layout.

Some Background info:
This is my first post! I am a total novice when it comes to VBA in Excel (but I'm a fast learner!), so please bear with me if my question is either obvious or easy (or if this is a question that's been asked 14980213 times already). I have some programming experience, but all in C or C++, not in VBA--this makes the project challenging. I also have to hand this off in a few months and trust that it'll never break, ever--more challenging.
I'm trying to make a Participant Tracking System for some workshops we offer. The intent is to make a userform so that an administrator can input all the information for the participant in question. One important question on the form is which course the participant intends to take; the snag is that the current list may change over time.
The Spreadsheet is set up with Course headings starting at R8C8, and continuing across for all 16 courses we currently offer. The data for the participant is entered into Rows 1-7, and the date they completed the course in the appropriate column for that course. There are some formulas in Rows 1-7, the important one here counts up the number of classes currently offered.
So, below is the code i'm trying to use, at least to start. I am making a combobox that has all of the available classes.
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim ClassList() As String
'R5C6 contains a formula that calculates the number of classes offered. The value is currently 16
Redim ClassList(R5C6)
iCount = 0
y = 8
Do While iCount > R5C6
'R8C8 is where the class list begins.
'It continues horizontally along the rows for the 16 titles offered.
Range(R8Cy).Select
ClassList(iCount) = ActiveCell
y = y + 1
iCount = iCount + 1
Loop
With ClassListBox
.Clear
.List = ClassList
.ListIndex = -1
End With
End Sub
I used to have a line that replaced the following chunk.
Range(R8Cy).Select
ClassList(iCount) = ActiveCell
It read
ClassList(iCount) = R8Cy
and did nothing for me at all.
When I initialize the userform, I get a blank combobox. It doesn't do what I want it to do, but that's probably because I'm telling it to do something weird.

I have a user input box (VBA) with two columns of data entry. The leftmost column has text boxes labeled color1, color2, color3, etc.. The rightmost column has text boxes labeled tag1, tag2, tag3, etc..
I have the TAB sequence set to go from color1 to tag1, color2 to tag2, color3to tag3, etc..
A user can inadvertently tab over the color1 (or color2, etc. columns) into the tag1 (or tag 2, etc. columns) column without entering data in the color column.
Is there coding to allow a TAB key entry to be a Change Event such that, if a user TABS out of color1 without entering data, a MsgBox could signal that they must enter data in the color1 field before they can continue?
Alternately, can you suggest a different approach? The goal is to require an entry in the leftmost column (color1) before they can proceed to the tag1 field. Of course, they are given a "Cancel" option.
