I have a web form in which I need to enter repetitive data to configure the application and I am writing an excel macro in VBA to achieve this.
Data entry to all fields went well except one field. The field contains a pre-validated list of values, so there are two values SALES and SALES_TAX and when I put SALES, it opens up a pop up screen to select either through image or a radio button to bring the value back to main screen.
I could not able to achieve it and need some help on this please.
Thanks

i'm new to VBA and i try to create a word document where the content of the document is shown based on the selection of two combo boxes.
i have an excel file with 3 columns, server, version and content
i want to fill one combo box with all the content of the column server and one with the content of version.
based on the selection underneath the content should be shown.
is there any way to achieve this or maybe do i need to change to a different solution?
Short question:
Is there any way to tell which item is highlighted in a Data Validation cell drop down?
Details:
I'm trying to make a tooltip (using a form that follows the mouse when that cell is moused over; will have to change this to cover the dropdown area as well) that gives more information based on the current selection.
I want to do this for the current highlighted item in the list, so that the user can get more info without having to select the item then start over if it's not the one they want.
I also am trying to avoid using the Form Controls & ActiveX Controls. That's more by request from the person in charge than my decision.
I have a page with two buttons in header. I need to display same data on click of both buttons resp. but in different layout, means at click of first button i want to display a kendo asp.net mvc grid and at click of second i want tot display that data in a form of listview. So the question is, is it possible to display the data initially as a grid or listview (any one ) and at runtime we can change the format from grid to listview so that we don't have to create seperate controls partial views for that. Or any better idea on how to implement it is also welcomed.
First off I am new to FM but I have a good handle on the basics. What I need to do is this - in a contact information type layout I want to be able to alter the layout based on a specific field. Ex. When the record is brought up, the background of the layout will change colors for a client, another for vendor, etc.
I tried to change a label based on a field, with no success. My guess is that the layout is static and only the data fields change.
We use FM Pro.
Thanks,

FileMaker layouts are static, but there are still some things you can do to alter the layout based on the values of fields:
Calculation Fields
If you want the data shown in an area to change, you can use a Calculation field. A typical example of this would be a status field. To do this you would add a new field to your table and use enter a calculation on that field like:
Case (
IsEmpty(myTable::myField) ; "Please enter a value for myField." ;
myTable::myField = "wrong value" ; "Please enter a correct value for myField." ;
"Everything seems okay."
)
Conditional Formatting
To make things like background color change you can use a conditionally formatted field. I will typically add an empty numeric field (for this example we'll call it emptyField) and set it so that it can't be edited during modification.
If you place emptyField on your layout, below all the other fields and disallow the user to enter the field in either Browse or Find mode, you can then use conditional formatting to change the field's color.
Portal Hiding
You can use this technique when you want some elements of your UI to disappear when they aren't needed. For example, if you want a "submit" button to appear only when all of the records on a field are filled out.
To use this technique I will usually create a Calculated number field, called ReadyForSubmit, on the original table and give it a logical calculation like:
not IsEmpty(field1) and ... and not IsEmpty(fieldN)
(Note that the value of the above function would be 1 or 0)
I will then create a new Support table in my database and add to it a field One with a calculated value set to 1.
I will then make a relationship between myTable::readyForSubmit and Support::One.
On the layout, create a portal with one row. Put your Submit button in that layout. Now, when readyForSubmit calculates to 1 the button will appear. When it calculates to 0 the button will be hidden.
Hidden Tab Browser
Finally, you can use a tab browser where you set the title font size to 1 point, hide the border, and control the browser programmatically. You can use this for having different field arrangements for different types of records. To do this you would first give an Object name to each tab of the tab browser, say Tab1, Tab2, Tab3.
Then you would add a script, goToTab, with the logic for when you want to go to each tab. Say:
If (myTable::myField = "corn")
Go to Object (Tab1)
Else If (myTable::myField = "squash")
Go To Object (Tab2)
End If
You would then use Script Triggers to run goToTab when On Record Load.
With the release of filemaker 13 there may be another way to do this. You could use a slide control, name the panels in the control, and conditionally switch to the correct panel based on the record type.
you would drop the appropriate fields for the record type in each panel.
