I was wondering if you guys can help me with this problem. So I want a button that would show/hide a table in ms word. However, I can only get the button to do either show or hide separately with my code. Currently this code will show my table:
Sub Loan1()
'Hides Sections Not Used in Expanded Form
Dim CollapseRange1 As Range
'Set Which Range/Cell to Associate with Button
With ActiveDocument.Tables(3)
Set CollapseRange1 = .Rows(1).Range
CollapseRange1.End = .Rows(25).Range.End
End With
'If button is pressed then Hide/show CollapseRanges
If CommandButton1 = False And CollapseRange1.Font.Hidden = False Then
CollapseRange1.Font.Hidden = True
Else
CollapseRange1.Font.Hidden = False
End If
End Sub
I was hoping to be able to use one button to show and hide my table depending on the state of my table (hidden or unhidden)
Any help would be appreciated!
OH I managed to figure out my questions. Instead of
If CommandButton1 = False And CollapseRange1.Font.Hidden = False Then
I use
If CommandButton1 = False And ActiveDocument.Tables(3).Cell(1, 1).Range.Font.Hidden = False Then
I hoped this helps someone else!

I've been learning today some VBA basics to apply in powerpoint, but I have some experience in some other languages. As title says, I want a picture to be shown after I click on 3 other pictures before that. When any of this 3 pictures are clicked, they trigger a tick to be shown above that image, and I'm using those as a refer to code my macro. I have the following:
Sub Condicion()
Set Diapo14 = ActivePresentation.Slides(14)
If Diapo14.Shapes("tick1").Visible = True And _
Diapo14.Shapes("tick2").Visible = True And _
Diapo14.Shapes("tick3").Visible = True Then
Diapo14.Shapes("FlechaDer").Visible = True
End If
End Sub
I have the picture I want to show (FlechaDer) with a disappear effect as soon as the slide starts, but no matter what I do, when I test the slide, the picture is always there. Maybe I'm not applying the correct approach, hope someone can help me. I'm not even sure if this can be done in PowerPoint.
I got it working with the code below. I had to replace the "ticks" in the If cycle, and instead of them I used the pictures that once clicked popped up the ticks:
Sub Can12()
Set Diapo12 = ActivePresentation.Slides(12)
Diapo12.Shapes("Can").Visible = False
If Diapo12.Shapes("Can").Visible = False And Diapo12.Shapes("Wool").Visible = False And Diapo12.Shapes("Pencil").Visible = False Then
Diapo12.Shapes("FlechaDer").Visible = True
End If
End Sub
Sub Wool12()
Set Diapo12 = ActivePresentation.Slides(12)
Diapo12.Shapes("Wool").Visible = False
If Diapo12.Shapes("Can").Visible = False And Diapo12.Shapes("Wool").Visible = False And Diapo12.Shapes("Pencil").Visible = False Then
Diapo12.Shapes("FlechaDer").Visible = True
End If
End Sub
Sub Pencil12()
Set Diapo12 = ActivePresentation.Slides(12)
Diapo12.Shapes("Pencil").Visible = False
If Diapo12.Shapes("Can").Visible = False And Diapo12.Shapes("Wool").Visible = False And Diapo12.Shapes("Pencil").Visible = False Then
Diapo12.Shapes("FlechaDer").Visible = True
End If
End Sub
It worked fine on activating an animation (Right Arrow popping up) when all 3 items were clicked. I had to add the corresponding macro to the picture. (Can, wool and pencil)
C, Thank you for your input and encouragement! I have changed my form and script slightly, I am afraid I kept the if then statement as I am comfortable with the formatting. The script now works when the 'On Open'event runs.
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.ChkAlbumNotes.SetFocus
If Me.ChkAlbumNotes.Value = False Then
Me.lblAlbumNotes.Visible = False
Me.txtAlbumNotes.Visible = False
Me.btnAlbumNotes.Visible = True
Else
Me.lblAlbumNotes.Visible = True
Me.txtAlbumNotes.Visible = True
Me.btnAlbumNotes.Visible = False
End If
Me.TrackName.SetFocus
If Me.TrackName = " " Then
Me.btnAddRecord.SetFocus
Else
Me.btnNextRecord.SetFocus
End If
End Sub
This is fine when the form opens for the first time but I have a set of navigation buttons that are installed by the application as Macros. I cannot add my script to the On_Click event when the button is clicked, as On_Click is linked to the Macro. Is there a way to incorporate the script from the On_Load process to the pre-defined macro? Or can you suggest a neater way to achieve my requirements which are;
When the form opens,a check is made for the existence of a false value in the checkbox
if the check box is set to false, then the Notes Text Box and label are hidden and the notes button is visible.
If the check box has a true value, then the Notes text box and label are made visible and the button is hidden.
On completion of the test I check the field Track Name
if this is empty, I assume I am at the last record and give the Add New Record button the focus
If Track Name is not empty, then focus is set to Next Record button
when this button is clicked, the next record page opens and the process starts again.
Many Thanks
Mike
You should use the Form_Current event instead of Form_Open . This fires on starting the form (2 times) and everytime you move to another record.
Private Sub Form_Current()
Me.lblAlbumNotes.Visible = Me.ChkAlbumNotes.Value
Me.txtAlbumNotes.Visible = Me.ChkAlbumNotes.Value
Me.btnAlbumNotes.Visible = Not Me.ChkAlbumNotes.Value
If Me.TrackName = "" Then ' I suggest If Me.TrackName = " " being a typo and you want to check if empty ( that's why you should use vbNullString instead of "")
Me.btnAddRecord.SetFocus
Else
Me.btnNextRecord.SetFocus
End If
End Sub
I am working on a word document and made a command button that is suppose to hide a table. Now when I first set it, I thought I got it working I got it all styled and titled and when I clicked the button the table would disappear.
Then I saved it and closed the document but when I opened up the document I saw that the only thing that was hidden was the words inside the table, the table lines are not hidden and when I toggle the button the only thing hiding is the text.
Is there something I am doing wrong ? Here is the code in VBA
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
ThisDocument.Styles("HideText").Font.Hidden = Not ThisDocument.Styles("HideText").Font.Hidden
End Sub
I just want the button to toggle the text and the Table to hide every time it the button is pressed and when the document is open and closed.
Update may be on to something the table has its own style as well. should I be targeting that as well as the text within the style ? is that what is happening ?
Update #2
I was able to now hide and unhide the section of the table I wanted but it doesn't bring up the lines after I make the table visible. So is there a way to get the table grid to show up with the click of the button?
here is what I have so far.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
ThisDocument.Styles("HideText").Font.Hidden = Not ThisDocument.Styles("HideText").Font.Hidden
'Table Grid
Dim s As Style
Dim An As Integer
An = 0
If An = 0 Then
For Each s In ActiveDocument.Styles
If s.Type = wdStyleTypeTable Then
If s.NameLocal = "Table Grid" Then
Debug.Print (s.NameLocal)
s.Visibility = False
s.UnhideWhenUsed = False
Call s.Delete
End If
End If
Next
An = 1
End If
If An = 1 Then
For Each s In ActiveDocument.Styles
If s.Type = wdStyleTypeTable Then
If s.NameLocal = "Table Grid" Then
Debug.Print (s.NameLocal)
s.Visibility = True
s.UnhideWhenUsed = True
Call s.Delete
End If
End If
Next
An = 0
End If
End Sub
I'd approach this by hiding the font of the table (as below) rather than attempting to hide a specific font style which you're using within the table.
You could try something along the lines of:
Public sub CommandButton1_Click()
With ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Range.Font
.Hidden = Not .Hidden
End With
End Sub
I am creating a data entry form for one of my database tables. For one of the sections, I have the text field with ONLY the caption: "Description 1" showing. If the Description 1 textbox is filled out by the user, I want it to show the Description 2 textbox. If the user fills out the Description 2 textbox, the Description 3 textbox will show up and so on up to 10 Description textboxes. Is there a way to hide the extra text boxes kind of like when you fill out the information while creating a macro? For example when you click Create --> Macro, there is only a dropdown box for you to select an action. If you choose Open Form and hit enter, 6 more text boxes with captions appear.
Is there a way to get that kind of functionality in a form? Also, in the Macro builder, it dynamically rearranges the page for you, can this also be done with the form?
Follow these steps:
Mark the visible property as false
Add OnChange event for each textbox.
Write the VBA code to determine if the next control will be showed or hide. Note, the Me!FormControlItem.Text is accessible only if the control is focused.
There is the 3 functions for each control.
Private Sub text1_Change()
If Not Trim(Me!text1.Text) = "" Then
Me!Text2.Visible = True
Me!Label2.Visible = True
ElseIf Not Trim(Me!Text2) = "" Then
Me!Text2.Visible = True
Me!Label2.Visible = True
Else
Me!Text2.Visible = False
Me!Label2.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Text2_Change()
If Not Trim(Me!Text2.Text) = "" Then
Me!Text3.Visible = True
Me!Label3.Visible = True
ElseIf Not Trim(Me!Text3) = "" Then
Me!Text3.Visible = True
Me!Label3.Visible = True
Else
Me!Text3.Visible = False
Me!Label3.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Text3_Change()
If Not Trim(Me!Text3.Text) = "" Then
Me!Text4.Visible = True
Me!Label4.Visible = True
ElseIf Not Trim(Me!Text4) = "" Then
Me!Text4.Visible = True
Me!Label4.Visible = True
Else
Me!Text4.Visible = False
Me!Label4.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
Enjoy!
I have an access database that has a form that shows information about students, name, class, course etc. On the form I have a subform that shows the grades for the students. I have an edit button with this code:
If Me.AllowEdits = True Then
Me.AllowEdits = False
Me.genderCbo.Locked = True
Me.courseCbo.Locked = True
Me.subfrmGrades.Locked = True
ElseIf Me.AllowEdits = False Then
Me.AllowEdits = True
Me.genderCbo.Locked = False
Me.courseCbo.Locked = False
Me.subfrmGrades.Locked = False
End If
But with this code, whether it is is edit mode or not, I cant edit the grades in the subform. Can someone please come up with a fix? Been searching the internet for a good 30min now and couldn't find anything.
Thanks in advance
You have to reference the Form object within the subform control. To do this use me.subfrmGrades.Form.Allowedits=true instead of just me.subfrmGrades.Allowedits=true.
