When User Enters Data Into One Cell - Selected Text Prints In Another Cell

Jun 20, 2014

I am trying to do is to make it so that users can enter data into my form (I have managed to create the form and am working on trying to figure out how to get the info entered into the form to appear in my worksheet) and then the data will cause the information to, basically, compile sentences that I want to appear in one of three cells at the bottom of the worksheet.

Essentially, at this point in time, the end goal is to make 3 cells that contain text. Eventually, this text will be indexed elsewhere, but that is for the next person to deal with. I am creating a prototype that I want to present as a process improvement.

So, when the user selects 3 in cell D7 I want the text "Customer purchased 3 Widgets at $20 each." to print in cell 82B.
I also want the user to be able to copy and paste some customer records from another program directly into a cell in the form that will just print (unchanged) into one of these boxes, too.

Lastly, I want the user to be able to select checkboxes that will, when selected, print a comment that will print in two of these boxes. For example, if the user selects yes for cell D26 then I want the text "Customer not eligible for free shipping" to appear in both cells C82 and D82.

Data Validation - Control What User Enters Into Single Cell Based On Others

Nov 29, 2013

I want to control what a user enters into a single cell based on others.E.g.

A B
1 20 500
2 50 500
3 75 500
4 100 300

Column A is a thickness and column b is a width what I want to happen if the user enters a thickness in cell D1 and a width in cell D2 I want an error to pop up if for instance the user enters 100 as a thickness to only allow a maximum of 300 in the width. likewise if the user enters a thickness less than 100 in cell D1 to allow him to enter up to 500.

Cell Text Prints, But Isn't Seen On Screen

May 2, 2007

For example, a cell on the screen is blank. When the page is printed, the "blank cell" has printed text.

I checked "format cells" and it shows word wrap, merge cells, and left to right.

I was told to "un-merge" the cells. I did that and I still have the problem.

The color on all the cells is OK at a blue shade. When I look at print preview the cells are blank, but when the sheet is printed, the text shows.

Also, it looks like there are 2-3 cells inside the main cell.

I hope I have explained this properly, it is not easy to use the correct language to describe since I am not very good at using Excel.

Create A Dynamic Array So That When A User Enters The First Sheet Name Via An Input Box

Nov 20, 2008

I'm trying to create a dynamic array so that when a user enters the first sheet name via an input box, excel will know to select the other sheets with ending (2), (3), (4) etc.

Currently this code works only if there are 4 sheets present (as I set this way), anything lower/higher is out of range.

How do I make it so that it will select sheets if there are less than 4 sheets present?

I tried nesting, but I pretty sure this array needs redimming or something. Is ubound a better option?

Macro Which Cycles Through User Inputted Values And Prints Sheet

Jun 21, 2014

I'm looking to create a macro which displays a user entry box where the user can input a starting number and then input an ending number. The macro will then cycle through that range inputting each value into a specific cell and perform a print function. It will continue doing this until the last number in the range.

E.g.
Min. Number inputted = 1
Max. Number inputted = 80
Macro will not cycle through that range:
Input 1 into Sheet1 Range A1
Print Page
Input 2 into Sheet1 Range A1
Print Page
.....Continue doing this until it reaches 80

Loop That Grabs The Cell And Prints Into Columns On The Spreadsheet

Dec 20, 2009

how to create a loop that grabs the ( t'th ) cell and prints into columns on the spreadsheet adjacently that cell and the ones before it (total = t) and repeats it consecutively until there are no more cells to transcribe into columns. For example - I have n=100 cells in a column that need to be placed into n-t columns (where t = 5 for example).

See image below for clarification, code to follow:

As you can see I need it to fill out in the yellow highlighted cells the rest of that pattern. Right now it only does it for one column, but every time I try to get it to do the rest of the columns, it prints the same first column over and over again (I'm having some severe mental block with implementing the correct loop code).

For clarification also, the user selects the t'th cell and it prints that cell and the previous (3 in this case)... and then it shifts down one cell and prints those 4 cells into the next column - which is what I want it to do.

Sub populate_range()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim rowoffset As Integer
Dim offsetnumber As Integer
rowoffset = Range("F2")
offsetnumber = Range("F2")
Range("d5:iv5").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.ClearContents
Sheet1.Select
Range("b4").Select
ActiveCell.Offset([offsetnumber], 0).Select
Range(ActiveCell, ActiveCell.Offset(-([offsetnumber] - 1), 0)).Select
Selection.Copy............................

VBA Macro To Use Solver On User Selected Column Of Data?

Jul 24, 2014

I am trying to write this macro so that I can optimize 181 outputs based on 2 inputs (columns A and B are inputs). Each row has a single output at the end of the row that I am trying to minimize. I want to be able to select as many of the rows that I want and have the code optimize each individual row. So far I can't get it to let me use variable cell references for the "ByChange:="$A$3,$B$3"." This is the hang up that is not letting me increment the macro to the next row. The macro works currently for the single selected cell, but until I can vary the ByChange portion, I can't automate it.

Code Prints To PDF But Can It Do So For All 3 Prints?

Feb 19, 2013

The code bellow allows for me have the current sheet saved "printed" to a pdf file with name taken from a cell value.

Excel 2010 :: When Cell Selected Can't Use Arrows To Move To Another Cell While Pointer Is Over The Cell

Apr 18, 2013

When I use the mouse pointer to select a cell I can't use the arrow keys to move to another cell while the pointer is over the cell and I can't edit the cell while the pointer is over the cell. If I move the pointer away from the cell then I can move around and edit as normal therefore I don't think this is a scroll lock issue.

This issue also happens when I select a tab. If I select a tab and then leave the pointer over the tab I selected then I can't use the arrow keys to move around the worksheet or edit a cell; if I move the pointer away from the cell then I can move around and edit as normal.

I am using MS Excel 2010.

Deleting Selected Data Based On Cell Value?

Oct 23, 2013

I have attached a sample file.

There are two sheets Stock and BrancnID The stock sheet has a very huge date ( approx 30000 ). The Stock Id of all the records are unique. Every day I get the Stock ID numbers only in excel format from different branches. Every day I have to match the ID numbers received and delete its data in the Stock sheet ( to get an idea I have shown this in sheet3 ).

Is there is any code where I copy paste the ID numbers from the varoius excel sheets into my excel file in the BranchID sheet and the data gets deleted. i.e as I paste the data the record gets deleted but not the Stock ID number. Also the next day when I get new ID numbers and I delete the old ID numbers from the BranchID sheet the data should not re-appear in the Stock sheet.

Userform Enters Data At End Of Table Instead Of First Empty Row

Dim i As Integer, response As Integer
With Sheet1
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row + 1

Copy Data Cells Only In Selected Cell Column

Oct 18, 2006

I have a macro that loops through several workbooks and copies data to one common sheet. Works great with one flaw that I have not been able to resolve. I am using the End Property example below, this works great as long as there are more than one cell with data. With one cell having data this takes you to the bottom of the sheet.

Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.Copy

Need code to select from a specific cell to the last cell in that column with data where when the selected cell is the only one with data that would be the only cell selected.
