I want to be able to Click on one Checkbox on Excel VBA that is able to Click on 5 other Checkbox's. My scenario is I want to create a table that shows 5 types of Data, what I want to accomplish is to create a Checkbox that clicks all of these other checkbox's, and therefore loads all data without the user having to check all 5 of these other Checkbox's. I want this checkbox to also be ticked if the user has ticked all 5 other options, and when the user has clicked then unclicked this Checkbox, for all the options to unselect itself. Hope someone can help?
inside the main check box click function add the oleobjects.object.value property
sub checkbox1_click()
activeworkbook.sheets(1).oleobjects("checkbox_2").object.value=true
end sub
you can add more check boxes in a similar way....so whenever the main check box (checkbox 1 ) is enabled all other checkboxes within the checkbox sub will also be enabled

I have created an "Expandable/Collapsible" structure using VBA. I have added some form controls, like a dropdown or option buttons in each of the section, but the issue is that, when the whole thing is collapsed, the form controls are visible in the button. please check the screenshot and advise a solution.
Yes that is because you have not selected Move and Size with cells.
That option is greyed out when you right click on the control and then click on Format Controls | Properties | Move and Size with cells for Option Button and Combo Box as shown below.
You need to use a different way to activate it.
Click the control and then click as shown below
And then from there you can set those properties.
Now those controls will hide when you collapse the rows.
I Want to Create a Multiple textbox on add button click three textbox and a droplist should be added on every click and on save button the the value should be saved in database
I have created a form that to be used by my company's employees. One employee noticed that when right clicking on a cell, there is a "Pick From Drop-down List..." option in the menu. When using that option it will sometimes show some seemingly random options from elsewhere on the spreadsheet.
How can I prevent that option from appearing in the right click menu? Thanks!
Make that given option not visible with:
With Application.CommandBars("Cell")
.Controls("Pick from drop-down list...").Visible = False
End With
I am not sure if this is even doable in Macro (VBA). The issue is, if a user enter a value in specific cell (lets say A2). I need to trigger a popup window (similar to MsgBox function) with several option for the user to select in the popup (either a drop down list or Radio buttons). The values in the drop down list or Radio buttons can be populated in the code. I need to let the user select the option "value" from the list and then can click OK or Cancel. The value that the user selected would be display in the same cell. I checked online and it seems like there are very small selections for the MsgBox function. Can this be done??
Thanks,
Your best option would be to use Data Validation to make a drop-down list.
If you go to Data-Data Validation-Allow-List you can create a drop-down list of all values you want. Store all of the values you want in the drop-down list on another sheet and just set it as the Source.
Any other issues let me know.
I found a control that displays a CheckedListBox for the dropdown of a combobox. I like this but I want to improve upon it. I want to perfectly replicate the behavior of the standard combobox like so:
When the user clicks the combobox the dropdown (CheckedListBox) opens.
When the user clicks inside the dropdown they have no problem checking multiple options.
When the user clicks the ComboBox again the DropDown hides.
When the user clicks off the combobox (ANYWHERE, be it on a control or just the form), the DropDown gets hidden.
I found on P/Invoke.net the PostMessage function in the User32.DLL library that allows you to send a message to the ComboBox using the CB_SHOWDROPDOWN (0x014F) message to force it to immediately close the native DropDown.
The problem in doing so is that it will automatically force call the OnDropDownClosed function of the base ComboBox control. This I would not care about but it stops the natural feeling of the control (for me at least) in that if you do some trickery with it to keep your custom dropdown open, it still stays open when you click off the control (because the ComboBox thinks it's dropdown is closed already).
That is the behavior I want to avoid. I want the ComboBox to think that it's DropDown is still open when it's not (until the user either clicks the combobox to close it or clicks off the control).
Also, the problem I was experiencing before just letting it open the native combobox dropdown was that when I went to click on the custom dropdown, the ComboBox fires the OnDropDownClosed function and (seeing as how I override that method to hide the custom dropdown), my dropdown is hidden.
So...
How do I override the OnDropDown method to open up a custom custom dropdown that, when clicked, will not fire the OnDropDownClosed method, I guess, is the short way of asking the question.
