Userform To Always Open In Center Of Excel Screen?

Apr 5, 2010

Is there any way to tell a userform to always open in the center of the excel screen? It always seems to open somewhere in outer space on multiple screen setups.

Center UserForm On Screen On Show

Sep 25, 2007

I'm having trouble centering my UserForms on the screen. I have tried all the options on the StartUpPosition in the Properties windows and the closest I can get is vertically centered but on the far left. The annoying thing is that it was working (both vertically and horizontally centered) but when I changed the defaults of the option buttons they moved to the position I described. I have two monitors (but excel is maximised on one monitor only) could this have something to do with my problem? If so why did it work before?

Screen Not Refreshing While Modal UserForm Open

Mar 20, 2008

I'm launching a main form from a menu I've added. I want to make the form modal. From that form, the user can launch several other forms (that I also want to be modal). If any of the forms are modal, then the Excel sheet that is visible in the background does not refresh. If the form is moved at all it creates a dragging pattern on the screen and hides the spreadsheet. That's not so bad, except when I get to either a second or third level form and start closing them. They're still visible even though the previous level form is now on top. Most of the forms get bigger the deeper you go into the data entry process. So, as you close them and move back up the chain, it gets very confusing. If I simply make the forms modeless, it refreshes fine. I've tried using Application. ScreenUpdating = True and Me.Repaint with no success. I couldn't figure out where to put the Me.Repaint since there isn't a UserForm_Move event.

(Userform) Textbox, Center Text Vertically?

Jan 6, 2010

We can center horizontally with TextAlign (Left, right or center). Can we center text in a textbox on a userform vertically? I am working with multiple fonts, when a user selects a font I attempt to format a textbox as a display to show what is being created (Best WYSIWYG as I can). I have this particular font that is just ugly but is required. My textbox is set for a 12 point font but the displayed characters partially appear below the lower portion of the textbox. Think of cutting off about 1/3 of the bottom of all text in the textbox.

In my textbox it seems like the text could be moved up (some type of top margin?). All other fonts appear to display in the textbox vertically central, so I believe its the particular font selected causing the as displayed anomaly.

Vertically Center Text In Userform Label

Apr 2, 2008

Is it possible to vertically center the text in a userform label? For example: I have a label that's 22px high, but the text is only 10pt -- at the moment it just hangs out at the top of label looking bad.... I'd like to place it the middle if possible.

Excel 2010 :: Accessing VBA Module From UserForm On Workbook Open

Feb 13, 2013

I am using Excel 2010 and late binding to generate reports. The sheets are blank and unused. I have the UserForm being opened on Workbook_Open and the actual VBA for doing the work in a separate macro in the workbook. All the posts I have found are dealing with accessing cells from the UserForm and I haven't found any dealing with connecting a macro to the UserForm output.

My question is this: I want to return from the UserForm the flags of which reports to run to the (unopened) macro containing the code to do so. How do I open the macro and pass the variables to it?

The UserForm is creatively called "SelectionForm" and the macro is called "DailyFTP" with a Main sub as the entry. I know I can use the code under to capture the radio button and checkbox choices. I have other variables like the names of files set as global variables in the DailyFTP macro. The macro doesn't exist until SelectionForm opens it, so they must be set after the macro is in memory.

Open App From Another Workbook - Screen Refresh

Oct 29, 2008

I've developed a complex dictator application, which pretty much takes over the entire Application object. During beta testing, I've had some user complaints that, once my program is started, they can't access their existing workbooks.

In order to remedy this situation, I'm trying to construct a front-loader workbook, which will automatically determine whether or not to start a new instance (application) of Excel. If the user already has a workbook open (i.e. "MiscBook.xls"), the front-loader will start a new application; otherwise, it will just use the existing application.

My "Auto_Open" code for the front-loader workbook is shown below:


Sub Auto_Open()

Dim xlApp As Excel.Application
Dim wbkTemp As Workbook, wbkApp As Workbook
Dim lCount As Long
Dim vTemp As Variant

The code works fine, but I have a minor gripe: every time a new application is created ("Else" in the "If-Else" above), the screen doesn't appear to refresh. In other words, I get a new window (instance of Excel), but none of my custom-defined buttons and menus show up. If I hover my mouse over their intended locations, they "appear" one at a time.

I'm just wondering - is there something I can do to prevent this behavior, or "refresh" the new application window upon startup? I'm essentially looking for something like "Userform.Repaint", only for a brand-new Excel Application object.

Open & Close Workbook Without Screen Flicker

Jan 10, 2008

I have a userform that opens a woorkbook and fills some textbox from that woorkbook. Although that it goes very fast it is still visible (sometime just in the toolbar) and flickers the screen. Is it possible to open it "hidden"?

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
On Error Resume Next
Workbooks("Kontrollsystemet.xls").Close SaveChanges:=False
Workbooks.Open "V:allaBeredningKontrollsystemetKontrollsystemet.xls", ReadOnly:=True
Sheets("Calc").Activate
Label4 = Range("K7")
Label5 = Range("L7")
Workbooks("Kontrollsystemet.xls").Close SaveChanges:=False
Caption = Now
TextBox1.SetFocus
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Open Workbook - Hide Sheets/splash Screen

Oct 6, 2009

I have a workbook that has worksheets that serve as data input pages for the user.
I have control boxes created by the forms toolbar.

I created a splash screen that is to be launched when the file is opened.
Instead, often the last sheet that the user was on when they last saved the file (usually but not always the worksheet called "Main Menu") is seen first.

I understand that not all the sheets can be hidden - that one must be unhidden.

So I created a sheet called "Background" that is a solid color with no gridelines.

Objective:

When the file is opened, I want the "Background" sheet to be seen first and then the splash screen to be initiated.

Now - when the user opens the file, the Main Menu worksheet is seen for a few seconds (or whatever the last sheet was on before it was last saved), then it disappears and the solid background screen is shown with the splash screen. When the splash screen ends, the "Background" sheet disappears.

Here is the code that I have in the workbook

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim wks As Worksheet
On Error Resume Next
For Each wks In ThisWorkbook
If wks.Name "Background" Then
wks.Visible = False
End If
Next wks
End Sub

What has to be changed so that the first sheet that is seen upon opening the file is the "Background"; then the splash screen happens; then it returns to the Main Menu sheet?

Resize Userform To Fit Screen?

Jul 20, 2013

stretch" the userform to fit the height and width fo the screen. I dont want to simply change the height and width of the userform, i want the controls within the userform to stretch with the userform so that it looks the same, just fullscreen. this is what ive found by googling:

VB:
With Application
.WindowState = xlMaximized
Zoom = Int(.Width / Me.Width * 100)
Width = .Width
Height = .Height
End With

however, this just stretches it to match the width of my screen, but doestn consider the height, so that if i have a widescreen vs a square screen it will cut off the bottom of my userform. It would be great if there was a zoom type featur that zooms the vertical and horizontal dimensions seperately... more like a stretch than a zoom.

Use Userform Password Screen

Aug 4, 2009

I have a UserForm that I want to use as a Password screen
The form has a label, CommandButton and TextBox.

When I run the UserForm, IF you click OK without entering the Password, you still gain access to the Workbook!
IF you type in the wrong Password you still gain access to the Workbook and NO "Invalid password!" message pops up.

What I would like to happen IF the CommandButton is clicked without entering the Password, is for the Workbook to close, and IF the Password is correct, I want to load Useform2

I am using the following code provided by rorya, that I got from here.....
http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/showthr...light=password

[CODE]
Option Explicit
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Me.Hide
End Sub
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Me.TextBox1.PasswordChar = "*"
End Sub
Private Sub UserForm_QueryClose(Cancel As Integer, CloseMode As Integer)
Me.Hide
End Sub

Sub Mycode()
Dim frm As UserForm3
Set frm = New UserForm3
frm.Show
If frm.TextBox1.Text = "Password" Then
' run your code
Else
MsgBox "Invalid password!"
End If
Unload frm
End Sub
[CODE]

Delete Splash Screen UserForm & Code

Sep 4, 2006

Some time ago (not sure how long ago) I created a splash screen that comes up when I first load a particular workbook. There was only one worksheet in the workbook and at that time the data in the worksheet was not so relevant and hardly ever used. That workbook name is "Employees" and the worksheet name is "EmpData".
Subsequently, the worksheet ("EmpData") in the workbook "Employees" has became relevant to a new workbook named "Payroll" I created. This workbook is used all the time. It had four different active worksheets.

I realized last week that the data in "EmpData" was very relevant to the work in the "Payroll" workbook so I copied "EmpData" worksheet in it's entirety to the "Payroll" workbook as a fifth worksheet using the same name as before, "EmpData". Now each time I open the "payroll" workbook the splash screen shows up and hangs around for several seconds or longer. It has become quite irritating and I want to delete it.

Excel 2010 :: Text Aligning Just Slightly To The Left Of Center

Dec 10, 2012

My current spreadsheet shows text that's aligning just slightly to the left of center. In the Format Cells menu under Alignment, I have selected Center for both Horizontal and Vertical. There is no indent. Orientation is 0 degrees. Text is set to wrap. Merge cells is unchecked. Text direction is Context.

When I double click a cell to change the text, it centers correctly as the cursor blinks. But when I click somewhere else and it stops blinking and allowing me to type in the cell, it aligns slightly to the left of center.

Excel VBA - Merge And Center Cells Based On Date Values In Row Below

I'm using the following code (found here: [URL]......) populate dates in row 13 for a dynamic Gantt Chart...

It works perfectly to display daily dates in the mm/dd format. Now I want to have an overarching month/year displayed over the entire range for any particular month by merging and centering the cells above the month's dates the above code populates, and pull in the month/year formatted as mmm-yyyy. I've attached a mock up I did manually to convey the desired result.

Excel 2010 :: Lock Out Trust Center Settings For Disabling All Macros?

Mar 12, 2014

There are some excel documents in a hidden folder that contain sensitive information. Shortcuts to these documents will be provided to users to open them and add data. These documents contain all kinds of macros as well. Once macro disables the 'Save As' feature so that the workbook can not be saved outside of the hidden folder, preventing to some degree a user from saving as a different name and emailing the document with the sensitive data.

This all works fine with Macros enabled. As soon as macros are disabled the 'Save As' prevention is bypassed and the workbook can be saved anywhere.

Is there a way for an administrator to lock out the Trust Center options for disabling all macros?

Excel 2010 :: Importing Data That Has Imbedded Cost Center Subtotals - Move To Column

Jul 29, 2014

I am trying to create a Dashboard in excel (2010) using tables/pivot tables to build it. The data I am bringing into excel has these key fields of data: cost center+cost center description, general ledger account+general ledger account description, and YTD amount.

My problem is the data is from an external source report and the report has subtotals built in at cost center, and the report's format of subtotaling puts the cost center first and then the general ledger accounts below. There is no
formula value in the cell that has the subtotaled amount and the number of general ledger accounts can vary depending on whether there has been general ledger activity.

I want to take this format:
July YTD
Cost Ctr 1050 XYZ$6.00
625110 Supplies$2.00
650150 Postage$2.00
650550 Fees$2.00
Cost Ctr 1052 ZZZ$4.00
670500 Pens$2.00

and have it look like this
Cost CenterCost Center DescrGL AcctGL Acct descYTD Amt
1050 XYZ 625110 Supplies $2.00
1050 XYZ 650150 Postage $2.00
1050 XYZ 650550 Fees $2.00
1052 ZZZ 679200 Pens $2.00

Besides manually doing data moves and assigning a unique sort sequence number to keep the records together, how else can I quickly move my cost centers to a new column and keep the cost center with the gl account and $amount?

Open 2nd Workbook From Userform Then Close 2nd Userform?

Jul 4, 2012

What I would like to do is to be able to open a second workbook from a user form, preform some work on it then save and come back to the same place in the original user form.

So in steps:

1 : user clicks command button to open user form
2: user then clicks on command button on userform that opens 2nd workbook via a yes / no message box, but closes userform on 1st workbook (would be ideal if this could stay open, but hidden)
3: user then does work on 2nd workbook,
4: userform on 2nd workbook saves then activates the 1st workbook and reopens the userform

This is where no matter what I try I cant get the command button on the 1st userform to be clicked automatically so the yes / no message box appears.

This is part of the code in the 2nd sheet commandbutton that saves / closes / opens

Code:
Unload Me
ActiveWorkbook.save
Windows("ABC.xlsm").Activate
Sheets("Request Sheet").Activate
Call Sheets("Request Sheet").ForceClickOnBouttonXYZ
Call UserForm1.CommandButton6_Click 'this is where I cant get it to work!!
Windows("xyz.xlsm").Close
ABC is the 1st workbook
xyz is the 2nd workbook

This is the code on the 1st workbook I use to call on the 2nd workbook

Code:
Public Sub ForceClickOnBouttonXYZ() Call CommandButton1_Click End Sub
