I'd like to know on how to code a userform (VBA Excel) with automatically updating itself when the cell values has changed.
I have produced a button that will show the userform with labels and text boxes. But whenever i click it yes it shows up but i need to click the userform in order for me to see the values.
Need help.
Thank you in advance,
Tramyer
The Worksheet.Change event is fired everytime you change the contents of a cell on a given worksheet.
You can create an event handler in the worksheet module (usually labeled Sheet1, Sheet2 etc. in the VBA editor) that is called every time the event is fired:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Debug.Print Target.Address
End Sub
This example just outputs the address of the cell that was changed, but you can adapt this to update your userform with the changed values instead.

I have a UserForm with refedit, textbox, and command button controls.
I would like the user to be able to select a range of cells from the active worksheet with the refEdit control, and as the range values are selected, the sum of its values are displayed in the text box.
Once the total of the ranges are selected, the user will click the command button, which should copy the value from textbox, close current UserForm, open another UserForm and paste the value into a textbox.
However, when I click the refEdit control, it only shows the refEdit textbox by minimizing the user form until the button is clicked. How can I prevent this from happening?
Also, the code I wrote for the textbox doesn't work, in fact it doesn't do anything:
Private Sub RefEdit1_Change()
txtbxSum.Value = Sum(RefEdit1.Value)
End Sub
Thanks!
The RefEditcontrol has its issues, so it may not be the best design choice. As Ashleedawg commented, see here
That said, the RefEdit.Value property is a string representing the selected range. So to Sum that range you need to use
Private Sub RefEdit1_Change()
txtbxSum.Value = Application.Sum(Range(RefEdit1.Value))
End If
Note that RefEdit1_Change fires every time the Selected Range changes (so if the user drags over a 3 cell range it will fire three times). If you also have a txtbxSum_Change event it will fire each time the refedit1_Change event updates the
Textbox with new value, ie as the selected range Sum changes.
I have an Excel ListBox (not ActiveX as these are causing display issues) with an Excel (dialog menu-driven) macro that outputs its value to a named range cell on a different sheet to the Listbox. In that sheet's code I have the below
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Debug.Print "ping"
End Sub
The macro event does not trigger when I click on the Listbox (therefore updating the named range cell value). I have verified that the macro executes when I directly update that sheet.
I assume the form control macro is circumnavigating the sheet event trigger. Am I right? Does anybody know an efficient workaround for this? I am stumped.
Thanks Kindly
You can assign a macro to the ListBox as ListBox1_Change event (right click › assign macro) which will be executed on change of the ListBox value instead of Worksheet_Change then.
Probably that is why the Worksheet_Change is not triggered anymore when using the ListBox to change the cell value.
I have been stuggling for same time now but I don't now how to do that...
When I select a cell in column Q, I get a userform (which is ok).
In that userform I have the content of the selected cell (e.g. Q6) (which is ok)
In userform I have two buttons:
- quit: which closes the userform without saving the text in the cell;
- save: which save the text in the cell from userform.
Both at saving and quitting the selections (focus) remain on that cell (Q6).
I want when I click again on the Q6 (witch is already selected), the userform reopen again.
The only solution I found so far, is to change the selection (for exemple on P6).
Cam anyone, please, help me? Thx.
In addition to how you are currently showing the form, you could add a double-click event handler. In the sheet's code module do something like this:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
If Target.Column = Range("Q1").Column Then
UserForm1.Show
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
Instruct the users that if they want to reshow the form, they should double click on the currently selected cell.
I tried running the private sub code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
Dim target As Range
Set target = Range("G3")
If Not Intersect(target, Range("G3")) Is Nothing Then
End If
End Sub
I am pulling a value from one sheet and putting it into another cell on a separate sheet. I want the VBA to run when the cell is automatically changed. When I tried the code above, nothing happened when I updated the cell.
From the sounds of things the issue seems to be that you're trying to put the code in a Module like a regular macro. To have it run based on a worksheet event, you need to have the code in that worksheet's code window (in the VBA window, there's the "Microsoft Excel Objects" folder, inside is the list of worksheets, double-click the worksheet to open it's code).
Once you've opened the worksheet's code, at the top of the window you should see two drop-downs. The left one should show "(General)". In that drop-down select "Worksheet" (should be the only option).
In the drop-down to the right of that, select "Change". Then you need to validate the Target is the right cell (If Target.Address = "$<Column letter>$<row #>"). Inside that If statement is where you'd nest your code to copy the value to the second worksheet
How do I assign a macro to a hyperlink?
You can do it using the Worksheet_FollowHyperlink event.
For example I recorded a macro named Macro1 and the following code will run the macro whenever the hyperlink is clicked
Private Sub Worksheet_FollowHyperlink(ByVal Target As Hyperlink)
Run ("Macro1")
End Sub
But this is not a very effective solution. My hyperlinks points to the same sheet (an by default to the 1st cell) so when ever the hyperlink is clicked the first cell in this sheet will be selected automatically.
I didn't investigate more on this. you can simply cancel the navigation (don't know if possible) or set the hyperlink property to the current cell so that the selection stays in the same cell.
