lookup source for Macro from a dynamic Range
Hi all
Hoping someone will be able to point me in the right direction. Am creating a spreadsheet that a records new client data and enters it on sheet 1,via a userform. From sheet 2 onwards are individual client acounts. Question 1 on userform2 i need to create a list box from the client info on sheet 1, as this is a dynamic range, i am not sure of the coding for this, is this possible? Question 2 On completion of data on form2, all data to be posted out to respective client accounts,not sure of the coding for this? Question 3 Is it possible that on entry of a new client, a new client accound sheet could be created? Many thanks in advance for any direction with this Steve |

use a defined name for the source for the listbox.
Insert = Name = Define Name: List1 Refersto: =Offset(ClientInfo!A1,0,0,countA(ClientInfo!A:A),1 ) http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=161514 XL97: How to Use a UserForm for Entering Data http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=213749 XL2000: How to Use a UserForm for Entering Data http://www.microsoft.com/ExcelDev/Articles/sxs11pt1.htm Lesson 11: Creating a Custom Form Excerpted from Microsoft® Excel 97 Visual Basic® Step by Step. http://support.microsoft.com/?id=168067 XL97: WE1163: "Visual Basic Examples for Controlling UserForms" http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;829070 How to use Visual Basic for Applications examples to control UserForms in Microsoft Excel -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "steve_doc" wrote in message ...

apparently you haven't successfully defined your range, so it isn't being
seen as a valid range reference. As I said, I have tested it and it works fine. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "steve_doc" wrote in message ... thanks Tom, but all i get when trying to enter that is "Invalid Property Value" "Tom Ogilvy" wrote: In the properties window of the Listbox or Combobox, under the rowsource property, type in List1 that works for me. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "steve_doc" wrote in message ...

ClientInfo is defined in the name range, and insert:
sheet1!A1:ClientInfo into the rowsource in the properties for listbox. For me, this metho works great...is it really produces inproper property assignment -- Message posted from http://www.ExcelForum.com |

In Excel 97 it did for me but I may not have tested it thoroughly enough.
In any event, it appears an obfuscation and redundant. In Excel 2000, it is legitimate, but totally unnecessary when ClientInfo by itself works fine. The question is what your definition of clientinfo is and what you are trying to achieve with this notation. This uses the union operator to build a union of cells from A1 to ClientInfo. If that is what you intended to achieve, I suppose it is legitimate, but it seems the long way around the block to me and your explanation did not show that to be your intent or why you would need it. In fact your definition of ClientInfo already started in A1 on Sheet1, so there is no reason to create a redundant union. Except for the "unique" notation you used, the remainder of your post repeated what already had been posted, so I am not sure what your intent was. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "unplugs " wrote in message ...
