DATA FORM problem
Hi saziz,
Excel Help says that a DataForm can contain a maximum of 23 fields. Is that the problem, perhaps? For your second question, please describe how your spreadsheet is organized.

DATA FORM problem
Not me this time, Dave!
Copied and pasted from Excel XP Help - Swedish: "Dataformulär kan innehålla högst 23 fält." You can skip the translation; 23 in Swedish is the same as 23 in English. BTW, when I prepared my reply, I tried to access http://office.microsoft.com/assistan...p/offxp/excel/ that I have used on and off, to get the help text in English. However, now I got redirected to Microsoft Sweden where that page does not exist. www.microsoft.com is "user friendly" and redirects me to Swedish content all the time without me asking for it. Don't know what to do about it. Anders Silven Sweden "Dave Peterson" skrev i meddelandet ...

DATA FORM problem
Hi Anders,
No that is not the problem, as I said it is not capturing the coulmn which are added after I wrote the macro, I hve less than 15 columns.. All I need macro to do is to capture all the cells having data to pu in FORM. These are less than 23 columns. My next Q is about a script which would go through tmy list of part and capture those parts which are below set minimum level, compile list with part no. and print. saziz saziz wrote: *Hello Gurus, I am facing yet another problem.

DATA FORM problem
Hi again saziz,
DataForm question: Post your code. Print macro question: How is the worksheet organized? Column/Row headers? Where is minimum level vs. current level?

That must be 32 converted to kronors! Dave's right (for once <vbg),

DATA FORM problem
Use a dynamic range for the database, so both columns and rows can
increase, up to 32 columns. There are instructions he http://www.contextures.com/xlNames01.html#Dynamic Then, use the range name in your macro. saziz < wrote: Hi Anders, No that is not the problem, as I said it is not capturing the coulmns which are added after I wrote the macro, I hve less than 15 columns..

DATA FORM problem
I did not challenge Dave's statement that the maximum number of fields in a Data
Form is 32. My point was that I based my post on the Swedish Microsoft Excel Help File where it says 23. Making fun of people who can't read or write can be funny sometimes, but being lesdyxic, dyslectic, sydslected, or even odd is often even better. "Debra Dalgleish" skrev i meddelandet ...

DATA FORM problem
Anders,
Thanks for baring with me. The spread sheet columns has the parts no. and the rows gets filled in as the data is entered. I am targeting particular column (say column F) which has an embeded formula to adjus the inventory of an item. Once any part get sbelow set minimum level. My script captures it and copy the relevant info cells of that item an puts into another sheet and prints it. Debra's idea of (dynamic range) for DATA FORM worked and I am almos getting there.. saziz; -- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com |
