How can I import code to a Activex Control Button on another page? - vba

I have use a button (by clicking) to create a new sheet and insert a button on it, but I want to import codes to the new button (here is MyPrecodedButton).
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim z As Integer
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim ws2 As Worksheet, wsnew As Worksheet
Set wb = ThisWorkbook
Set ws2 = wb.Sheets("Sheet2")
z = ws2.Cells(2, 1).Value
Set wsnew = Sheets.Add ' Declare your New Sheet in order to be able to work with after
wsnew.Name = "PIAF_Summary" & z
z = z + 1
With wsnew.Range("A1:G1")
.Merge
.Interior.ColorIndex = 23
.Value = "Project Name (To be reviewed by WMO)"
.Font.Color = vbWhite
.Font.Bold = True
.Font.Size = 13
End With
ws2.Cells(2, 1).Value = z
Dim Rngc As Range: Set Rngc = wsnew.Range("F35")
With ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add(ClassType:="Forms.CommandButton.1", Link:=False, DisplayAsIcon:=False, Left:=Rngc.Left, Top:=Rngc.Top, Width:=205, Height:=20)
.Name = "MyPrecodedButton" ' change the name
End With
End sub
Here is the code for MyPrecodedButton
Public Sub MyPrecodedButton_Click()
MsgBox "Co-Cooo!"
End Sub

Let's demonstrate briefly what you can do with VBA to Add buttons.
Below code will Add a button to cell B2 if the ActiveSheet is not "Sheet1".
Option Explicit
Sub SayHello()
MsgBox "Hello from """ & ActiveSheet.Name & """"
End Sub
Sub AddButton()
Dim oRng As Range
Dim oBtns As Buttons ' Add "Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library" to References if you want intellisense
If ActiveSheet.Name <> "Sheet1" Then ' Only works if it's not "Sheet1"
Set oRng = Range("B2")
Set oBtns = ActiveSheet.Buttons
With oBtns.Add(oRng.Left * 1.05, oRng.Top * 1.05, oRng.Width * 0.9, oRng.Height * 2 * 0.9)
.Caption = "Say Hello!"
.OnAction = "SayHello"
End With
Set oBtns = Nothing
Set oRng = Nothing
End If
End Sub
Before and After screenshots:
Now Clicking on the button:
So, if you code is generic enough (to work with all your possible situations), there is no need to Add Codes via code. i.e. have your codes ready, then just assign the button's OnAction property to call the correct Sub.

Autocomplete code for a worksheet in Excel not working in other worksheets using VB

My goal was to make autocomplete active for dropdowns and I have achieved it for a single worksheet but duplicating the code to other worksheets is not working.
I started by creating a combo Box on the initial worksheet containing the drop downs and then made the following changes-
Changed the name to TempCombo in the Name field
Selected 1-fmMatchEntryComplete in the MatchEntry field;
I then inserted the following code for that worksheet:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
'Update by Extendoffice: 2017/8/15
Dim xCombox As OLEObject
Dim xStr As String
Dim xWs As Worksheet
Set xWs = Application.ActiveSheet
On Error Resume Next
Set xCombox = xWs.OLEObjects("TempCombo")
With xCombox
.ListFillRange = ""
.LinkedCell = ""
.Visible = False
End With
If Target.Validation.Type = 3 Then
Target.Validation.InCellDropdown = False
Cancel = True
xStr = Target.Validation.Formula1
xStr = Right(xStr, Len(xStr) - 1)
If xStr = "" Then Exit Sub
With xCombox
.Visible = True
.Left = Target.Left
.Top = Target.Top
.Width = Target.Width + 5
.Height = Target.Height + 5
.ListFillRange = xStr
.LinkedCell = Target.Address
End With
xCombox.Activate
Me.TempCombo.DropDown
End If
End Sub
Private Sub TempCombo_KeyDown(ByVal KeyCode As MSForms.ReturnInteger, ByVal
`Shift As Integer)`
Select Case KeyCode
Case 9
Application.ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Activate
Case 13
Application.ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
End Select
End Sub
This implementation works perfectly for that sheet but when i attempt to use the same code on another worksheet on the same file the autocomplete function doesn't work.
I attempted modification of the combobox name on sheet2 to TempCombo2 and changed the following line:
Set xCombox = xWs.OLEObjects("TempCombo")
to
Set xCombox = xWs.OLEObjects("TempCombo2")
The autocomplete function fails to work on sheet 2 even though no error is thrown.
This is a pretty interesting idea, I like it.
I was able to get this to work on multiple sheets with the following modifications:
Removed Cancel = True, this line was throwing an error and Cancel is not an argument in Worksheet_SelectionChange; I don't think this is doing anything.
Copied the code to the second sheet's code module (it has to be in each sheet module that you want it to run on)
updated Set xCombox = xWs.OLEObjects("TempCombo") to Set xCombox = xWs.OLEObjects("TempCombo2")
Me.TempCombo.DropDown updated to Me.TempCombo2.DropDown since that is what I named the combo box on the second sheet
Also, not a change as much as an assumption, it seems it only works with the ActiveX controls, so I assume that's what you are using when you add the new box.
As a follow up I was able to get it to work using the workbook module as long as the combo box is named "TempCombo" on all sheets (you have to add a combobox named "TempCombo" to each sheet). Going this route, you only need the code once, on the workbook module , and it uses the combo box that is local to each sheet.
TO TEST - In a new workbook: add list validation to a range using a range reference, put some values in the list range, add an ActiveX combobox to the sheet and name it "TempCombo", put the following code in the workbook module, then click anywhere in the range that has the list validation enabled.
One other note, make sure you aren't still in design mode on the developer tab!
Option Explicit
Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
'Update by Extendoffice: 2017/8/15
Dim xCombox As OLEObject
Dim xStr As String
Dim xWs As Worksheet
Set xWs = Sh
On Error Resume Next
Set xCombox = xWs.OLEObjects("TempCombo")
With xCombox
.ListFillRange = ""
.LinkedCell = ""
.Visible = False
End With
If Target.Validation.Type = 3 Then
Target.Validation.InCellDropdown = False
'Cancel = True
xStr = Target.Validation.Formula1
xStr = Right(xStr, Len(xStr) - 1)
If xStr = "" Then Exit Sub
With xCombox
.Visible = True
.Left = Target.Left
.Top = Target.Top
.Width = Target.Width + 5
.Height = Target.Height + 5
.ListFillRange = xStr
.LinkedCell = Target.Address
End With
xCombox.Activate
Sh.TempCombo.DropDown
End If
End Sub
Private Sub TempCombo_KeyDown(ByVal KeyCode As MSForms.ReturnInteger, ByVal Shift As Integer)
Select Case KeyCode
Case 9
Application.ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Activate
Case 13
Application.ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate

How to make a range bar chart

Hey I'm new to forums and this is my first post. I am new to vba in excel, but have written thinkscript in ThinkorSwim.
If anyone is familiar with a range stock chart, thats what Im going after.
I found code for a line chart, and am using it, but it is based on where price is at any given time. I want to modify this line chart to only plot values when they are above or below a range so that it resembles a candlestick chart with no wicks. Once data enters that range, I only want it to update whenever a new high or low is made in that range. The ranges need to be preset (ex. 50 ticks) Once the range is exceeded, I want the data plotted in the next range up, and repeat the process. Time and dates should be ignored, and only plot based on price action.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Take your sheet of data and filter... example would be:
Columns("A:C").Sort key1:=Range("C2"), _
order1:=xlAscending, header:=xlYes
Sort info: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff840646.aspx
You then can define to select your desired range. Assuming column A is x-axis and B is y-axis (where your parameters for modifying need to be assessed):
Dim High1 as integer
Dim Low1 as integer
High1 = Match(Max(B:B),B:B) 'This isn't tested, just an idea
Low1 = Match(Max(B:B)+50,B:B) 'Again, not tested
and using those defined parameters:
.Range(Cells(High1,1),Cells(Low1,2).Select
This should give an idea for High1/Low1, where you can work through how you want to define the row that the max value occurs.
You then CreateObject for the Chart you want, having selected the data range you are going to use.

Excel/VBA Macros assistance

I am having a bit of trouble with some code and was wondering if someone could maybe assist. Basically I have 2 errors which I can't work out myself (too inexperienced with VBA, unfortunately)
Brief overview:
This macro is designed to generate a new workbook with copies of selected sheets from a "source" workbook in order to present to clients as a report batch. Essentially - we have master workbook "A" which may have 50 tabs or so, and we want to quickly select a couple of sheets to "copy" into a new workbook to save and send to a client. The code is a bit of a mess but I am not really sure what is going on/what I can remove etc.
Problems:
When you run the attached code/macro in Excel, it does everything it is supposed to do, however, it ALSO copies the sheet from which you run the macro. (i.e. I might be on sheet 1 in the Workbook. Run the macro to generate reports, checkbox menu appears and I select sheets 2, 5 & 9 - it will then copy into a new Workbook sheets 2, 5 & 9 AND sheet 1. But I never selected sheet 1 from the checkbox menu...)
Once this code has finished running, I am unable to save the Excel file. It just crashes and says "Microsoft Excel has stopped working" and then the file dies and I have to close Excel and recover etc. etc. I combined 2 pieces of code to get this working and I imagine I may be missing something crucial which is causing the problem. We have another piece of code to print sheets out in a similar way to this, and if I run this I am able to save with no problems.
Code:
I have included all the Visual Basic code (i.e. for the generate reports & print sheets macros).
I really don't have any experience with VBA so I hope someone will be able to assist! Thanks in advance :)

since there's always an ActiveWorksheet when macro starts and thus if you only use Worksheets(CB.Caption).Select Replace:=False statement you keep adding it to the via Printdlg selected sheets.

vba excel combo box in userform

Basically the module Onboarding is asking the path of the tracker i want to update. I am updating details in the
sheet1 of the tracker.
I am setting the values of fields in userform 'OnboardingForm' to blank(so that the values entered last time to the
form is not visible when I am opening the form this time.
Now I am opening the form 'OnboardingForm' and entering values in the subsequent fields.
I have put a check button in my userform 'OnboardingForm' which is invisible to the front end user.
Now in the tracker there is a sheet named 'Project Tracks' which has information of all current projects
Once the submit button is clicked the control will go to the tracker's 'Project Tracks' sheet. It will validate the
track entered in the userform 'OnboardingForm' with the tracks present in the tracker's 'Project Tracks' sheet. Once found the other details against that particular track will get fetched to the tracker's sheet1(this I have done so that I will not have to enter values manually to the userform 'OnboardingForm' so that the form looks simple). There are no chances of the track not
matching.
Now one command button new track has been put in my current userform 'OnboardingForm'. Once clicked this will take the control to
the userform2 'ProjectTracksForm'.This is basically put so that if I am adding a new track, the form takes the detail and enters in the
tracker's 'Project Tracks' sheet.
Question 1> My current userform's Track button is a combo box. How do I add values in the dropdown from the tracker's
'Project Tracker' sheet to the dropdown.
Question 2> Once I add a new track in userform2 'ProjectTracksForm',submit and then when I come back to my current
userform 'OnboardingForm' that added track should be shown in the dropdown of Track combo box.
Please find below my piece of code.

Question 1> My current userform's Track button is a combo box. How do
I add values in the dropdown from the tracker's 'Project Tracker'
sheet to the dropdown.
I am calling the combobox "ComboBox1" in this example
The Range to place in the combobox would look like this...
The code to populate the combobox would be in the Userform Module.
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim LstRw As Long
Dim Rng As Range
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Sheets("Project Tracker")
With ws
LstRw = .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Set Rng = .Range("A2:A" & LstRw)
End With
ComboBox1.List = Rng.Value
End Sub
Question 2> Once I add a new track in userform2
'ProjectTracksForm',submit and then when I come back to my current
userform 'OnboardingForm' that added track should be shown in the
dropdown of Track combo box
When you activate your userform again, you can clear the combobox and repopulate it with the new list.
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
Dim LstRw As Long
Dim Rng As Range
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Sheets("Project Tracker")
With ws
LstRw = .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
Set Rng = .Range("A2:A" & LstRw)
End With
ComboBox1.Clear
ComboBox1.List = Rng.Value
End Sub
I assume that somewhere you would have a code that will add a new item to the List in sheet("Project Tracker"),
Something like:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'THIS IS IN THE OTHER USERFORM
'add item to first blank cell in column A sheets("Project Tracker")
Dim sh As Worksheet
Dim LstRws As Long
Set sh = Sheets("Project Tracker")
With sh
LstRws = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row + 1
.Cells(LstRws, 1) = "SomeThingNew" 'whatever you are adding to the list
End With
End Sub
The code will add something new to the list in your worksheet.
When you show the form again, the new item will be in the combobox.
You can either use a Button, Combobox event, textbox event, to add the item to the new list.

Displaying only a determined range of data

I want to display to the user certain information that exists on a separated worksheet, whenever he clicks a button.
I can set Excel to "go" to this worksheet at the starting line of the range , but I could not find a way to hide everything else.
Is there some method for this, or do I have to hide all rows and columns?
Insert a UserForm in the Workbook's VB Project.
Add a ListBox control to the userform.
Then do something like this code in the UserForm_Activate event code:
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
Dim tbl As Range
Set tbl = Range("B2:E7") '## Change this to capture the rang you need '
Me.Caption = "Displaying data from " & _
ActiveSheet.Name & "!" & tbl.Address
With ListBox1
.ColumnHeads = False
.ColumnCount = tbl.Columns.Count
.RowSource = tbl.Address
End With
End Sub
Which gives unformatted data from the range:
To export the range as an image, you could create an Image in the UserForm instead of a Listbox. Then this should be enough to get you started.
As you can see from this screenshot, the image might not always come out very clearly. Also, if you are working with a large range of cells, the image might not fit on your userform, etc. I will leave figuring that part out up to you :)
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
Dim tbl As Range
Dim imgPath As String
Set tbl = Range("B2:E7") '## Change this to capture the rang you need '
imgPath = Export_Range_Images(tbl)
Caption = "Displaying data from " & _
ActiveSheet.Name & "!" & tbl.Address
With Image1
If Not imgPath = vbNullString Then
.Picture = LoadPicture(imgPath)
.PictureSizeMode = fmPictureSizeModeClip
.PictureAlignment = 2 'Center
.PictureTiling = False
.SpecialEffect = 2 'Sunken
End If
End With
End Sub
Function Export_Range_Images(rng As Range) As String
'## Modified by David Zemens with

Dim ocht As Object
Dim srs As Series

Set ocht = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddChart
For Each srs In ocht.Chart.SeriesCollection
srs.Delete

'## Modify this line as needed ##'
fname = "C:\users\david_zemens\desktop\picture.jpg"
On Error Resume Next
Kill fname
On Error GoTo 0
ocht.Width = rng.Width
ocht.Height = rng.Height
ocht.Chart.Paste
ocht.Chart.Export Filename:=fname, FilterName:="JPG"
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
ocht.Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Set ocht = Nothing
Export_Range_Images = fname
End Function
If you record a macro and hide some columns and rows manually, the code will be produced for you, and you will see how it's done.
