I'm new at VBA so sorry in advance if this is a silly question. I have a Worksheet with ActiveX List boxes. The worksheet also has Toggle Switches. The toggle switches are set up to Hide Rows and ActiveX boxes when not depressed and Show Rows and ActiveX boxes when depressed. I'd like to save the file with all of the Toggle switches not depressed so that the user can un-hide only the rows and boxes that they need. Everything works properly until I save the file with all rows hidden. After the save all of the boxes change locations. I've tried setting the boxes to "Move and Size with cell", "Move but don't size with cell", and "Don't more or Size with cell" in the preferences. The same thing happens with all options. Below is my toggle switch code. Is there something in there causing this to happen?
Private Sub ToggleButton1_Click()
If ToggleButton1.Value = True Then
'This area contains the things you want to happen
'when the toggle button is not depressed
Range("101:183").EntireRow.Hidden = False
Sheet1.Range("94:144").EntireRow.Hidden = False
'This hides the listboxes since they can not move and
'size with cells
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox1").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox2").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox3").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox4").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox5").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox6").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox7").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox8").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox9").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox10").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox11").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox12").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox13").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox14").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox15").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox16").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox17").Visible = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox18").Visible = True
Else
'This area contains the things you want to happen
'when the toggle button is depressed
Range("101:183").EntireRow.Hidden = True
Sheet1.Range("94:144").EntireRow.Hidden = True
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox1").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox2").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox3").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox4").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox5").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox6").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox7").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox8").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox9").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox10").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox11").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox12").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox13").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox14").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox15").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox16").Visible = False
Sheet11.OLEObjects("ListBox17").Visible = False

End If
End Sub
I know this isn't the answer to your question (I haven't even looked at it yet), but i just felt like giving you this code, this is the exact code you provided and will function the same way, just looks a tiny bit clearer (actually as it also removes the if statement it prolly even performs at like 1/1000000 of a millisecond faster also =D)
Private Sub ToggleButton1_Click()
Dim boolToggleValue As Boolean
Dim i As Integer
boolToggleValue = ToggleButton1.Value
'This area contains the things you want to happen
'when the toggle button is not depressed
Range("101:183").EntireRow.Hidden = Not boolToggleValue
Sheet1.Range("94:144").EntireRow.Hidden = Not boolToggleValue
'This hides the listboxes since they can not move and
'size with cells
With Sheet11
For i = 1 To 18
.OLEObjects("ListBox" & i).Visible = boolToggleValue
Next i
End With
End Sub

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)
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'm trying to create a form where a user can tick a box and paragraphs of text are displayed
I've used the code below, however when I click out of design mode the text disappears (as expected) but when I click the check box it doesn't reappear
Private Sub CHECKbutane_Click()
If (Bookmarks("TEXT_Butane").Range.Font.Hidden = True) Then
Bookmarks("TEXT_Butane").Range.Font.Hidden = False
Else
Bookmarks("TEXT_Butane").Range.Font.Hidden = True
End If
End Sub
When you work with using the Hidden property to hide/show text, make sure that the display of Hidden text is turned off in the Word UI and the display of all non-printing options must also be turned off. The individual optinos are in File/Options/Display; all non-printing characters can be toggled on/off using the "backwards P" in the Home tab.
Of course, if this is a macro to be used by others, no one wants to have to continually go into File/Options/Display to change these settings. Here's a macro that turns on the individual settings for everything except hidden text if the non-printing characters are being displayed.
The display of non-printing characters if then turned off and the display of hidden text is turned on/off according to the state of the checkbox.
Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
Dim vw As Word.View
Dim bChecked As Boolean
Dim bkm As Word.Bookmark
'If the user is currently viewing non-printing characters
'make sure these are turned on individually so that
'not displaying Hidden text does not affect these settings.
Set vw = Application.ActiveWindow.View
If vw.ShowAll = True Then
vw.ShowParagraphs = True
vw.ShowObjectAnchors = True
vw.ShowTabs = True
vw.ShowHyphens = True
vw.ShowOptionalBreaks = True
vw.ShowSpaces = True
End If
vw.ShowAll = False
vw.ShowHiddenText = False
bChecked = Me.CheckBox1.Value
Set bkm = ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("TEXT_Butane")
If bChecked Then
bkm.Range.Font.Hidden = False
Else
bkm.Range.Font.Hidden = True
End If
End Sub
If this were a professional application, you'd want to store the individual "Show" settings and re-apply them when this document is no longer the active document. But that's very advanced programming...
I got the following code to work for me.
So you could essentially:
Public Hide As Boolean
Sub CHECKbutane_Click()
Bookmarks("TEXT_Butane").Range.Select
If Hide Then
Hide = False
Call Hide
Else
Hide = True
Call Unhide
End If
End Sub
Sub Unhide()
With Selection.find
.text = ""
.Format = True
.Font.Hidden = True
.Replacement.Font.Hidden = False
.MatchWildcards = False
End With
Do While Selection.find.Execute
Selection.Font.Hidden = False
Selection.MoveRight 1
Loop
End Sub
Sub Hide()
With Selection.find
.text = ""
.Format = True
.Font.Hidden = False
.Replacement.Font.Hidden = True
.MatchWildcards = False
End With
Do While Selection.find.Execute
Selection.Font.Hidden = True
Selection.MoveRight 1
Loop
End Sub
I am coding a basic program that allows users to calculate useful data on a shape (2d and 3d) based on information such as radius length, side length, height, etc.
I would like to create a settings MENU that allows users to set how many decimal places they would like the answer to go to, so what I did was
Private Sub btnSettings_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles btnSettings.Click
If btnSettings.Text = "Settings" Then
btnSettings.Text = "Back"
ElseIf btnSettings.Text = "Back" Then
btnSettings.Text = "Settings"
End If
Do While btnSettings.Text = "Back"
'makes IO elements invisible
lblEnter.Visible = False
lblEnter2.Visible = False
lblData1.Visible = False
lblData2.Visible = False
lblData3.Visible = False
lblAnswer1.Visible = False
lblAnswer2.Visible = False
lblAnswer3.Visible = False
txtEnter.Visible = False
txtEnter2.Visible = False
btnClearTxt1.Visible = False
lblEnter3.Visible = False
txtEnter3.Visible = False
chkBox.Visible = False
btnCalculate.Visible = False
btnClear.Visible = False
'Makes shape selection elements invisible
picCircle.Visible = False
picSquare.Visible = False
picTriangle.Visible = False
rdoCircle.Visible = False
rdoSquare.Visible = False
rdoTriangle.Visible = False
btn3D.Visible = False
'Changes texts on necessary elements
lblSelectShape.Text = "Settings"
Loop
End Sub
As you can see, when "btnSettings" shows the text "Settings", the elements on the screen are VISIBLE to the user, however as soon as "btnSettings" changes text to "Back" (indicating the user is inside the settings menu) all the elements on the screen disappear, making room for the elements the settings menu will have. However, while debugging the program whenever I hit the settings button the program crashes.
Any help? Thanks
Use a Select Case for this:
Select Case shapeType
Case shapeType.Circle
'logic for this
'...
End Select
I set up a resume which has an 8.5 by 11 image in the background (could set it up to be a watermark if need be). Now i would like to get it set up so that it will not print the background image automatically so that the employer doesn't have to jump through hoops. After looking online I noticed that this is probably something that must be set up using VBA and templates. Any insite or anyone willing to tackle this it would be greatly appreciated.
Pretty much i just want my Word document to not print images or watermarks with out having the person who prints it set anything up.(doesn't have to be both)
Do you really need VBA for this?
To disable printing of background colors and images in Word 2010, simply follow these steps
Click on File | Option
You will get a "Word Options" Dialog Box.
Under Display Tab, simply uncheck "Print BackGround Colors and Images"
I use the following (short) procedure as a ribbon extension for showing/hiding logo's in document headers so users can toggle before print/pdf creation.
