I am trying to update a text box from a macro. The text box is outside of the chart area. I am using these two lines and it is not working.
Sheets("chart1").Select
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Text Box 2").Text = strSql ' a string variable
I’m just starting to learn the VBA process with Excel, this problem is probably very basic so forgive me.
I have a cell in excel that is linked to a textbox, if you add text to the textbox it will update the cell. If you close and reopen the application you need to click the textbox to show the value previously added to the cell, can this be viewed automatically.
Here is my
I am creating an Add Contact form. There is a checkbox for Individual (if left unticked then contact is a business entity - not an individual).
If Individual = True and If the txtNameFirst control has no value in it Then after the end user tabs away from the txtNameLastRegistered, the form should SetFocus on the txtNameFirst textbox (entry for this field is mandatory only if the contact is an individual - otherwise this field is made invisible)
But it is not working. I tick chkIndividual, I enter a name in txtNameLastRegistered, I tab away, code is called from txtNameLastRegistered_AfterUpdate (which includes the SetFocus code) but the form appears without focus in any of the controls!
My code below:

The code below works really great which Andy helped me with, but now I've put the textboxes that are changing in a frame. That is because I need to scroll the textboxes. That works in another form I've got, but for this form I've also got the textbox, TBSum601, which is updated from the sub UpdateTotal() (see below). BSum601 is placed on the form but not inside the frame. When I run the application it stops in Sub TxtGroup_Change() at the line: TxtGroup.Parent.UpdateTotal
I think it's because of that the textboxes for the TxtGroup now are in a frame instead of as before, on the form. don't know exactly what the "Parent" does, but I think it's something I have to do with the code there.

I am working on a addin UserForm to quickly format cell text, especially only select characters in a cell. I have this functional in a modal setting working with the active cell when I activate the UserForm. What I would like to be able to do is to work in excel without having to close the Userform and have the textbox update with each new cell. I have changed the UserForm properties to ShowModal = false which gets the first half. However the textbox will only show the cell value I started with.
VB:
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
TextBox1.Text = ActiveCell
End Sub

A text box on a Userform inputs numbers to a cell in a worksheet. I want the number to appear in the text box formatted #,##0.00 However, if I include the line
Code:
csDepositTextBox.Value = Format(csDepositTextBox, "#,##0.00")
in either the csDepositTextBox_Change or _AfterUpdate events, it causes the number to be stored as text in the worksheet. Curiously I can put the code in the corresponding event for another textbox and it does not corrupt the formatting.
I have two text boxes on a userform that are used to populate a label caption based on the textbox values. How do I set the label caption to update once a a textbox value is changed?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to write some code to update a label everytime the textbox data is edited. I have this code so far but it is returning an object error. NineV refers to the text box and and ninelabel refers to the label. This is the code:
Code:

Dim nivevalue As Integer
ninevalue = (((GP / 31.1035) * 0.255) * NineV.Text)
NineLabel.Caption = "£" & ninevalue

I have one source spreadsheet, where are columns NAME, DATE. I read these data by ADO to other spreadsheet, where I can change/delete data and then run macro for update data in source spreadsheet. The problem: In source spreadsheet is column "NAME" and column "DATE", with values e.g. "Joseph"; 1.1.1980. I read this data to other spreadsheet, then I delete in it value 1.1.1980. When I run macro Update, it messages error.
Sub UpdateItem
...
.Fields.Item(1).value = activecell 'activecell value = "Joseph"
If Not isempty(activecell.offset(0,1)) Then
.Fields.Item(2).value = activecell.offset(0,1).value
Else
.Fields.Item(2).value = "" 'I tried Empty and 0 too but when I read data again then, it displays 0.1.1900, nothing works
End If
...
End Sub
It seems that in source spreadsheet has data in column "Date" format Date and when I try to update data in format String ("") in source spreadsheet by Update macro, it messages error. When I used
.Fields.Item(2).Value = Empty
' or
.Fields.Item(2).Value = 0
after rereading data it displays 0.1.1900 What I want to get is that if the cell with date (in other spreadsheet) is empty, the cell in column Date in source spreadsheet after updating will be blank (contains no values).
I have a worksheet in which I have a worksheet_change macro. This worksheet_change macro makes sure that a few cells will keep their colors, even if the user copies and pastes a new value to that cell. This worksheet_change macro runs each time there is a change on the worksheet. Now my problem is that on the same sheet I have an update list macro which updates around 20.000 rows and two columns (which is alltogether around 40.000 values) and it takes a while to run. So.. it takes a loooooooooot of time (too much) when these two macros both run.
My question is that can I somehow disable the worksheet_change macro while the update list macro runs. I mean something like when I start the update list macro to disable worksheet_change macro and when the update list macro finishes, then reenable worksheet_change macro?
I am attempting to format some TextBoxes from within a For/Next loop. I need a way to check which TextBox is the active TextBox in the loop. Using i as the variable, I came up with this code snippet: Me.Controls("TB" & i).Text = Format("TB" & i, "mm/dd/yy")
If i = 3, this gives me in TextBox3 (which is called TB3) the text 'TB3' and not the value of what is in TB3. It has got to bo something simple, I just can't see it!!!
I need to be able to open a workbook named "Cost Price List" and press an update button which will open Another workbook called "Numerical Pricelist" that will then look up the part number of the item and change the corresponding description only, using the "Numerical Pricelist as the correct master document. There are approx 5000 part Numbers but i have cut a small sample section.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have multiple graphs that read from rows varying in length from 2 to 60 columns long, depending on user input. I need help in creating a macro that readjusts the graphs to read from smaller/larger data set.
I created one that said: If user input = 1, then set graph to (A1:A1), If user input = 2, then (A1:B1), but this is really inefficient. Is there a better way?
i have this macro that sorts out a few cells
View 4 Replies View Relatedaway to have a cells formula only up date via a Macro
Example
A1+B1 = C1
the formula is only done through a Macro so that if it is disabled C1 would be empty?
I guess the trick is how does the macro update when a value is entered in A1 or B1?
I have a macro that is supposed to update 3 pivot tables with the change to just the first one but it doesn't work. Can anyone help?
Here is my code but nothing happens when I change the first pt (C & S). It doesn't update the other 3 tables.
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
Dim PF1 As PivotField
Dim PF2 As PivotField
Dim PF3 As PivotField
Dim PF4 As PivotField
Dim x As String
Application.EnableEvents = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

Set PF3 = ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").PageFields("State")
Set PF4 = ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PageFields("State")
x = PF1.CurrentPage
PF2.CurrentPage = x

Column A current Amount
Column B Increse %
Column C Revise Amount

I have a spreadsheet of 30 or so tabs, all of identical layout, with columns B to AS used. Each day I have to drag a row down to collect data from various other spreadsheets, on each of the 30 tabs (different data in each tab, but same format), i.e. today I dragged down B216:AS216 down to B217:AS217 for all 30 tabs. I could record a Macro on the first tab and then play it for the remaining 29, but I have to record the Macro each day so it drags down the next row down.
I am after a Macro that will drag down the columns to the current date (which is in column A and is already entered down to the end of the year) on all tabs, so if I left it for 5 days etc, and then ran the Macro, it will drag down 5 rows. But if I had to run it 5 times that wouldn't matter. A button on the first sheet would be brilliant too, meaning I could open it up, click the button, and then all 30 tabs would drag down to todays date.
I ran into a dead with this simple but overlycomplicated task in Excel. How can I write a macro to update one workbook from many workbooks? My case. I have workbook A with 2 sheet tabs, sheet1 contains 6 columns: one for date, one for 0-20%, 21-40% ... 81-100%. Each of the rows underneath the heading contains a single data value ( total) from each of the 5 sheet tabs from the workbook being created each week of the month. Sheet2 build the chart reflecting the data gathered on sheet1.
I need a macro that will update workbook A sheet 1 or add the new data generated that particular week down the columns for each of the columns stated? How can I achieve this?
Every week I get a file download from SAP with multiple tabs and on each tab are variable number of rows (can by 10 or 20 or 200, doesn't matter). I recorded a macro to add additional information that is required for the team prior to discussion each week (namely column D, E, K and O).
I am not experienced w VB but I know there has to be a way to account for the fact the rows vary each week. See my code below (pasted only a portion covering a couple tabs but you can see in the first part how it was 11 rows this week. Next week could be 25 rows. So how do I properly reflect that in the macro?).....
VB:
Sheets("BPTO").Select
Range("D2").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(RC[-1],css,2,FALSE)),(VLOOKUP(RC[-2],css,2,FALSE)),(VLOOKUP(RC[-1],css,2,FALSE)))"
Range("E2").Select

I'm no expert with my vba, record a few macros and make alterations to existing code but this is driving me crazy.

I have a time sheet which is used by around 15 people. Part of the timesheet is a userform which adds a new sheet and names it with the seleted month and year. I have made a few changes to my timesheet which I wish to update on other peoples sheets. I am going to send out a speadsheet with a macro that people can run and it will automatically make the changes to their timesheet. I have done all the work for updating the various formats and formuals but I have hit a bit of a brick wall when trying to change the code on a user form via a macro.
It would be great if I could either overwrite all of it or add a some lines of code from a specific line number.
Anyway, I have 70 Sheets ( Tabs ) which when i'm finished will have the same cells in the same location of each sheet, referring back to a different line in a Data sheet at the beginning.
IN order for me to get there i need to edit each of the relevent cells but changing the formula so that it reads the next line down. I was thinking i could maybe get a macro whicle will increment each of the formula cells contained with a Named Range, this would make it more accurate than using the Find/Replace method of updating the formula's on a per cell basis....
Basically I want to set up a workbook, which will have a sheet called "Database" and then sheet1.
I want to use sheet1 as a "add to database" sheet, where users will simply dump in some data into sheet1 and the marco will format it so it matches the headers of the data base and then it will add/update the database sheet with the info (and new info if its new) from sheet1.
Here it is in pictures.
This is basically what the database sheet will look like (but much much much more rows of data)
As you can see this is a job database with some columns for POD, Connote, etc.
This is what the update sheet1 will look like when someone dumps some new data in (I can easily write a macro that formats it to match the database)
So basically I want the VBA to merge this sheet1 data into the database sheet, as you can see, there is simply a few 1's added to various columns for "Car Dudes" and "Robin Manufactures" but "Jimmys Lollies" row is completely new and not in the database.
So the marco would basically match up either the Job number or the HB number of the rows in sheet1 and if there is a match in the database sheet it will update the cells data, and if there is no match it will add the row to the database sheet.
The issue is the data in sheet1 might not be fully complete all the time, it might only have a job number and not a HB number, it might not have a client name or whatever. Basically the data users dump into sheet1 will come from many different reports, many different sources, what I'm trying to do is essentially merge all this data into a common formatted database sheet, for further working.
So in a nut shell, a macro to:
1. Match Job/HB numbers in sheet1 with rows already in database sheet and update row accordingly with any new data.
2. Add any new Job/HB rows from sheet1 into database.
I have a macro written that pulls data off another workbook and places it on a sheet on the my main workbook. The macro is set to auto filter based on whats in Column 1. The code for this is below:
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$AE$46303").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:= _ "201504"
Now what I was wondering is there a way for it reference say cell I12 on sheet2 in the main workbook and pull that data instead when the macro is run via a button. The number listed is a date code so say we change it too "201503". I would like to pull all those dates instead of the ones for "201504".
I am trying to write a creative procedure that on workbook open will check the name of the worksheet if it includes the day's date in sheetname & if it doesn't rename the sheet & delete current region from A1, else exit the sub.
Then runs a query on an Access DB to place in the above worksheet.
I need this due to novice XL & DB (8)users.
This is what I have at the moment on a test DB courtesy of J Walkenbach's sample files .....
I have the following macro:
Sub ScheduleUpdate()
WaitHours = 0
WaitMin = 15
WaitSec = 0
NextTime = Now + TimeSerial(WaitHours, WaitMin, WaitSec)
Application.OnTime EarliestTime:=NextTime, Procedure:=LinkUpdates()
Application.Run
End Sub
Sub LinkUpdates()
Sheets("PRICING SHEET").Select
Sheets("PRICING SHEET").UpdateLink Name:="P:CommonPRICINGCOMPILATION.xls", Type:=
xlExcelLinks
End Sub
The code does not work at all, just the skeleton to have an idea. I also need help recreating an entirely new macro which preferably works well!
The idea is that everyday at 8:00AM this macro starts automatically updating the links every 15 mins (SHOULD NOT MATTER IF THE SHEET IS OPEN OR NOT). But here is the catch.
This code should be the code for a checkbox. So when the box is checked, or TRUE, the macro should run normally updating every 15 mins. But when the box is unchecked, the macro should stop (no update occurring).
I want this macro because this sheet is linked to several other sheets and it needs constant updating. However, if I need to make a change in the main sheet, no updates should be happening.
