Anthony - Combo box on User Form

Hello,

I have created a user form which uses combo boxes to determine which record is to be updated and then data is inputted for that record in to my data sheet in Excel.

I'm not sure if it's possible but is there a way to format the combo box so that if information has been entered in for a particular record, it highlights that name or puts a tick against it (for example) so that you can see which records have been updated and which are yet to be updated?

Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you.

RE: Anthony - Combo box on User Form

Hello Sharon,

Unfortunately, what you require is not possible at the combo box level, although not impossible to achieve, but requires deeper programming using Class Modules, and creating your own class object. Unfortunately, i'm unable to explain the whole programming required here.

I hope this resolves your question. If it has, please mark this question as resolved.

If you require further assistance, please reply to this post. Or perhaps you have another Microsoft Office question?

Have a great day.
Regards,

Mark

Excel tip:

Change the Print button so it brings up the Print dialogue box

If you want to bring up the Print dialogue box to check your print settings when you hit the Print button, do the following:

1. Right-click on the toolbar that displays the Print button.

2. Select Customise.

3. Click on the Print button on the toolbar to select it, then hold the left mouse button down and drag the button towards the screen below. The button should come off the toolbar.

4. In the Customise dialogue box on your screen, select the Commands tab.

5. Select File from the Categories list, and then locate the Print... icon (looks like the normal Print button, but the word Print has three dots following it).

6. Click on the Print... icon to select it, then use your left mouse to drag and drop the icon onto the toolbar at the top of the screen.

7. Close the Customise dialogue box.
