Has anyone been able to get the time-phased work effort VBA extract macro by Jack Dalhgren, its quite an old macro.
I've been able to create the form and the macro works for the default timephase which is weeks, but if I select another say months I get an error on this line of code. (runtime error 13, type mismatch)
Set pTSV = ActiveProject.ProjectSummaryTask.TimeScaleData(tbstart.Value, tbend.Value, , cboxTSUnits.Value)

Thank you
The comboBox in the code uses 2 columns, the text and the internal representation which is a number. The code uses predefined constants for it like pjTimescaleWeeks. The call to TimeScaleData expects this number as parameter.
It is likely that you get the text (a String) as result from the comboBox, (eg "Week"), and this causes the Type mismatch.
You can specify that you want the value of the 2nd column as Value from the combobox. You can do this using the VBE form designer, set property BoundColumn to 2, or you can do this in you code:
Sub fillTSUnitsBox()
...
cboxTSUnits.List = myArray
cboxTSUnits.BoundColumn = 1
cboxTSUnits.Value = 3
End Sub

I am a newbie working on my first excel vba application. One of my user forms has a text box that the user enters data into. The data is likely to be a number that has leading zeros. I am placing the input in a string and trying to format it as text but both things I tried to not work. Any help would be appreciated.
Here are the two things I tried after search on line for how to format text in VBA code
txtString.NumberFormat = "#"
txtString.Value = Format(txtString.Value,"'0")
Thanks for any help.
More detailed question:
My application has 15 user forms and a workbook with 19 sheets in it. The first 5 sheets are excel worksheets that are used as databases. There are 2 worksheets that are inventory databases (account for 2 different types of inventory), there is a worksheet that tracks orders, there is a work sheet that tracks test results for products in inventory, and there is a worksheet to track the label information that must go on order. When the order is generated the user enters a package tag which is likely to be a number with leading zeros. The entry with leading zeros is stored in the orders database correctly. A different user from generates the label information that must go on the product. To do this the application displays orders that need labels and then when the user selects the order they want to generate the label the application searches the order database to get info to put on label and places this in a variable within the module associated with the generate label user form. It gets data in this fashion from each of the other databases to have all of the label information together. It then writes these variables to the database that has the label info in it. When it does this the leading zero get stripped off. I done several searches to find ways to do this and I have tried many of them and cannot seem to get any to work. I was hoping to fix this with the format method because I have to use it with other things I pull from the database like %s. The stripping of the leading zeros occurs when I store the value in the worksheet that has the label info. It does not matter if I set the cell in the label worksheet from a variable or directly from the orders workbook the leading zeros get stripped off.
Thanks!
Assuming your input is a string. Converts string to value you can work with. Calculates how many zeros to precede with in case it is not consistent.
Sub PrecedingZeros()
Dim strng As String
Dim lng As Integer
Dim fmt As String
Dim i As Integer
With Selection
strng = .Value
lng = Len(strng)
.NumberFormat = "#"
fmt = "0"
If lng >= 2 Then
For i = 2 To lng
fmt = fmt + "0"
Next i
End If
.NumberFormat = fmt
.Value = CSng(strng)
End With
End Sub
All
Thanks for your help. I ended up prepending a "'" to the text string every time I set my internal variable and that kept the leading zeros in place. This worked so I dropped the format idea.
Thanks again!

I am trying to show columns with "Register" on the certain cell,
and hide the others without "Register".
Columns 6 to 58 are hidden first
I used the below code, and got part of the result.
Sub Info_Register()
Dim s As Integer
For s = 6 To 58
If Cells(13, s).Value = "Register" Then
Columns(s).Hidden = False
End If
Next s
End Sub
Why I say part of the result, because I always get the Error Type Mismatch on the below part of the code.
If Cells(13, s).Value = "Register" Then
Not sure what type is correct, need help to use the correct type.
Sample Data:
State AL HI CA NY
Status Register Don't register Incomplete Data Register
Name Person A Person B Person C Person D
Contact Number 1234567 6789043 6836281 4267889
Email Address a#xyz.com b#xyz.com c#xyz.com d#xyz.com
One of your variables has a different type, for example integer, and you are testing the variable with a string, that is when you would receive the mismatch error.
On the Menu, at the top of the Window, click on Debug, and Use the Step Into button. You could also use a breakpoint, if you know where the error occurs use the Locals window to know for sure which variable, is the one with the error.
I am attempting to write some excel vba code that will process the content of certain columns of data. Given the worksheet has some level of dynamic change (columns added and removed from time to time), I want my code to "find" the specific columns by their header names, and ultimately return the column number. My File has roughly 50 columns.
The problem is this: My code works just fine to find many of the columns (headers) I am interested in returning the column index, but some of the columns "while clearly existing", will return Nothing and thus, throws the runtime 91 error.
I can say, without a doubt that when I execute the .find, that truly, the columns DO exist (like the Comments column). I can randomly change the failing hdr search column to a different header name, passing it to the function in the code and some columns are found just fine, and other, cause the runtime error. I have checked the "failing" headers for special characters, blanks, LF's etc. No luck. Even tried re-ordering the 4 rows using FindColHdrNum function. Again, no luck.
Was hoping fresh eyes may provide answer. Simplified code is below which is triggered by a button on main excel worksheet. I have not worked with functions much in VBA, and even where the function does not generate the Runtime Error, it is not returning the column value, but this is a secondary problem I can work on once I get the find code not blowing up (returning 0).
Sub Button119_Click()
Dim L4RankCol As Integer
Dim DecomDriverCol As Integer
Dim SupTermImpactYrCol As Integer
Dim Comments As Integer
Dim L3RankCol As Integer
L4RankCol = FindColHdrNum("L4 Rank") '<-- This works
DecomDriverCol = FindColHdrNum("Decom Driver") '<-- This works
SupTermImpactYrCol = FindColHdrNum("Support Termination Impact Yr") '<-- This works
Comments = FindColHdrNum("Comments") '<-- This does not work
End Sub
Function FindColHdrNum(strHdr As String) As Integer
Dim rngAddress As Range
Set rngAddress = Range("Headers").Find(strHdr)
FindColumnHdrNum = rngAddress.Column '<--runtime error is caused by Nothing returned
End Function
Issue turns out to be a spurious line feed that was embedded in the header. It was strange as I kept re-typing it, but of course, I would always start at the "first letter" of the "comment" header, when in fact, the character preceded that. Thanks to all, for the help!
The name of your function is FindColHdrNum but you wrote this into the function:
FindColumnHdrNum = rngAddress.Column
Instead of:
FindColHdrNum = rngAddress.Column
I have a VBA form which is used to enter data on a sheet. I am currently coding the form so as it will load any data already existing in the sheet back into the form.
For simple text strings it works perfectly.
e.g.
ReqSetup.ReqText = Application.Worksheets("Req Sheet").Range("F11").Value
However, I have some combo boxes, that on the form, when they are selected will enter a number in the corresponding cell.
Fail 1. - Run Time Error 380 - Invalid property value.
ReqSetup.MinPerKgCB = Application.Worksheets("Req Sheet").Range("C27").Value
Fail 2.
Dim MinPerKg As Range
Set MinPerKg = Application.Worksheets("Req Sheet").Range("C27")
ReqSetup.MinPerKgCB = MinPerKg
I'm obviously doing something really simple wrong but I can't work out what it is!!
Kind Regards!
I have some combo boxes, that on the form, when they are selected will
enter a number in the corresponding cell
Then you'd need to do the opposite of your code attempt, i.e.:
Worksheets("Req Sheet").Range("C27").Value = ReqSetup.MinPerKgCB.Value
That you'd better wrap inside a check that any combobox value is actually selected :
With ReqSetup.MinPerKgCB
If .ListIndex <> -1 Then Worksheets("Req Sheet").Range("C27").Value = .Value
End With
I've got an issue with my listbox. In the user form initialize event I'm using the following code to populate it:
RecordSelectionBox.List = WorkingCopy.Worksheets(1).Range("A2:P20").Value
Which works out fine. I have column width adjustments which also work out fine. Once the user has selected a record, a line from the listbox I'm setting the captions of a bunch of labels to the value of the listbox columns. It fills out label captions 1 to 15 just fine. When it hits 16 I get an error "Could Not Get the Column Property. Invalid Argument" "Run-time error '-2147024809 (80070057)'"
Here is the code:
Explanation.Caption = RecordSelectionBox.Column(16)
a debug.print of RecordSelectionBox.ColumnCount shows that I indeed have 16 columns. The explanation field is the longest of the fields I'm using, but I'm not sure that I see how that would become an issue. If anyone has an idea, I'm all ears.
That is because the First Column of the listbox starts with 0
Your first Label should be
Label1.Caption = RecordSelectionBox.Column(0)
and the 16th should be
Explanation.Caption = RecordSelectionBox.Column(15)
