Hi All,

How can I use Inded and Match function on VBA to populate certain form fields?

For eg: I have a userform where Users input:

Roll No(Unique to every student):
Last Name :
First Name :
Subject1 :
Ph No:

What I want to do is: Once Users Input Their Roll No, I want to populate
their Last Name, First Name, Subject1 and Ph No. Also the roll number might
not be in descending order, Hence I want to use somethign like Index and
Match function, So once a student Inputs the roll number, It will match the
roll number and populate other fields respectively

The button to launch the Form is on Sheet1 and All the student data is in
Sheet2.

Hope I made it clear

Thanks in Advance

thuis should help yuo to get started. This is the code behiind the form
My form has one command button and four text boxes

Option Explicit



Private Sub cmdFetchData_Click()
Dim rw As Long
rw = GetRow(txtRollNum.Text)
If rw = 0 Then
MsgBox "No Matching ID"
Else
FetchData rw
End If
End Sub
Function GetRow(RollNum As String) As Long
On Error Resume Next
Dim source As Range
Set source = Worksheets("sheet2").Range("A:A")
GetRow = WorksheetFunction.Match(RollNum, source, False)
On Error GoTo 0
End Function
Sub FetchData(rw As Long)
With Worksheets("Sheet2")
txtFirstName = .Cells(rw, "A").Value
txtLastName = .Cells(rw, "B").Value
txtSubject = .Cells(rw, "C").Value
txtPhNum = .Cells(rw, "D").Value
End With
End Sub

Use the Vlookup worksheet function.

If the user enters their roll number into TextBox1 and presses enter
then Excel will execute this code to fill TextBox2 with the
corresponding value in column B on Sheet2 (assuming all the roll
numbers are in column A on Sheet2) - something like this:

Private Sub TextBox1_AfterUpdate()
Me.TextBox2.Value = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup( _
Me.TextBox1.Value, ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet2").Columns
("A:B"), 2, False)
End Sub

Copy this pattern to fill your other text boxes from the other columns
with the other data.

Chrisso

Dim res as variant

with worksheets("sheet2") 'I'd change the name to something meaningful
'look for a match using a string
res = application.match(me.textbox1.value,.range("A:A"), 0)
if iserror(res) then
'look for a match using a real number
res = application.match(clng(me.textbox1.value),.range(" A:a"),0)
end if

if iserror(res) then
'no match between textbox1 and column A of Sheet2
'what should happen
beep
msgbox "Invalid entry"
exit sub '???
end if

me.textbox2.value = .range("a:a")(res).offset(0,1).value 'column b
me.textbox3.value = .range("a:a")(res).offset(0,5).value 'column F

Hi Sam,
i would just use Find Method.

Paste code behind your form & adjust as needed.
I am assuming you have a button on form to call procedure that student
presses to search for RollNo?
And textboxes are still named TextBox1, TextBox2 etc etc?

Hope useful

Sub GetStudentData()

Dim WS2 As Worksheet
Dim Search As String
Dim Foundcell As Range

Set WS2 = Worksheets("Sheet2") '<< change name as required


'searching for rollno
Search = Me.TextBox1.Text

Set Foundcell = WS2.Columns(1).Find(Search, _
LookIn:=xlValues, _
LookAt:=xlWhole)


If Foundcell Is Nothing = False Then

'found search value
For na = 2 To 5

Me.Controls("TextBox" & na).Text = _
Foundcell.Offset(0, na - 1).Value

Next na

Else
'did not find search value
'tell user
msg = MsgBox(Search & " Not Found!", 16, "Search")

End If


End Sub

Thanks a lot for you help Patrick,
One more thing I wanted in my form was a way to capture filter values from
sheet2 into a Dropdown list in the user form. Is there a way to do this?

For eg, I have a column "Tasks" on sheet2 which have values 1,2,3,4,5,6 and
each student can have multiple "Tasks" such as..

John: 1,3
Jill: 1,5
jack: 3,5,6
Bill: 2,4,6
and so on... I have this column set as a filter(Behaves like a dropdown on
excel sheet), so John will have a Dropdown Filter with values 1 and 3 in
"Tasks" column

So basically, I want these filter values to be displayed on the form as
dropdown menu with 1 and 3 displayed for John.

Hope I made it clear

Once you find the cell that holds the name, you can use VBA's split command (if
you're using xl2k or higher) to parse that data into an array.

Then use that array as the combobox's .list.

Dim myStr As String
Dim myArr As Variant

myStr = "1,2,3" 'how ever you find that cell would go here

myArr = Split(myStr, ",")

With Me.ComboBox1
.Clear
.List = myArr
End With

Thanks for your help dave,
I have a lot of students and Taks in list, so with this approach I will have
to input every tasks individually? or am I missing something here?

Please help

Hey Dave, to make it clear. Here is and eg of how the data looks on sheet

Tasks Roll_No
3 11
5 11
4 12
6 12
2 13
5 13
3 14
4 14
1 15
2 15
1 16
4 16

So lets say you select "12" from Roll_No column filter
then it will display

Tasks Roll_No(filter)
4 12
6 12

So I want this 4 and 6 to be displayed in the dropdown list on userform too
Is there a way to capture filter values(4 and 6) from a sheet to a userfrom.
So when I input "12" on userform textbox I se 4 and 6 for my Tasks Dropdown

Nope. I didn't know how you were getting that string, I thought it was two
columns. But that was wrong.

You're not really filtering the worksheet based on the roll number, right?

If you're not...

You can loop through the range.

Dim myRng as range
dim myCell as range

With worksheets("Sheet2")
set myrng = .range("B2",.cells(.rows.count,"B").end(xlup))
end with

me.combobox1.clear

for each mycell in myrng.cells
if mycell.value = clng(me.textbox1.value) then
me.combobox1.additem mycell.offset(0,-1).value
end if
next mycell

Hi All,

How can I use Inded and Match function on VBA to populate certain form fields?

Roll No(Unique to every student):

What I want to do is: Once Users Input Their Roll No, I want to populate

Hey Dave, Thanks a lot for all you help in getting this to work.

I was working on this and I came across an issue where students input values
in "Roll_No" field that are not present in the sheet. Is there a way where I
can disable the "Tasks" dropdown if they input an invalid "Roll_No" or a
"Roll_No" that is not present in the sheet? So basically enable the "Tasks"
dropdown on form only if the "Roll_No" they input is from the list in the
sheet.

Before you go too far, as a user, I'd rather use a combobox to choose the id.
Then I don't have to do any typing.

If you want to try:

Create a new worksheet and name it "RollNumIDs". You can hide that sheet if you
want. It's just gonna be used by the code to get a unique list of those id's
(in a sorted order).



Option Explicit
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim TempWks As Worksheet
Dim TableWks As Worksheet
Dim RollNumRng As Range

Set TableWks = Worksheets("Sheet1") 'sheet with the table
Set TempWks = Worksheets("RollNumIDs")

With TableWks
Set RollNumRng = .Range("A1", .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp))
End With

TempWks.Cells.Clear 'clean up any existing data

RollNumRng.AdvancedFilter _
Action:=xlFilterCopy, _
copytorange:=TempWks.Range("A1"), _
unique:=True

With TempWks
With .Columns(1)
.Cells.Sort Key1:=.Columns(1), _
Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlYes, _
OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, _
Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, _

Hey Dave, This is a good approach, But I have a lot of students and still
expecting more to come, So having a dropdown of abut 30-40 "Roll_No" would be
too long and it will keep on growint..
But this approach is great!

Thank you

Roll No(Unique to every student):
Last Name :
First Name :
Subject1 :
Ph No:

What I want to do is: Once Users Input Their Roll No, I want to populate
their Last Name, First Name, Subject1 and Ph No. Also the roll number might
not be in descending order, Hence I want to use somethign like Index and
Match function, So once a student Inputs the roll number, It will match the
roll number and populate other fields respectively

The button to launch the Form is on Sheet1 and All the student data is in
Sheet2.

Hope I made it clear

Thanks in Advance

Hey Dave, Thanks for this.. It worked out great!

I am trying to create a button €œInsert€� in the same form.

What I want this button to do is:
When I click Insert.. It Opens a new workbook, Inserts the current student
details in first row(Roll_No, Task, ect.), SO basically Every time I hit this
€œInsert€� button I want to populate current student detail(Roll_No, Task,
ect.) in a new row.

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance

Hey Dave, Rite now with this code it is saving seperate copies on clicking
"Insert"

I want to loop it through the same worksheet and save the data on the same
sheet but new row every time I hit "Insert"

SO when I click "Insert" after selecting a Task from the dropdown... I want
that Task and ROll no to populate in Row1, then If I input a different roll
no and select a Task for that and click "Insert" I want this to populate in
Row2 and so on.. Untill I manually save the workbook

For eg: I have a userform where Users input:

Roll No(Unique to every student):
Last Name :
First Name :
Subject1 :
Ph No:

What I want to do is: Once Users Input Their Roll No, I want to populate
their Last Name, First Name, Subject1 and Ph No. Also the roll number might
not be in descending order, Hence I want to use somethign like Index and
Match function, So once a student Inputs the roll number, It will match the
roll number and populate other fields respectively

The button to launch the Form is on Sheet1 and All the student data is in
Sheet2.

Hope I made it clear

Thanks in Advance

Hi Dave,

I am trying to get this thing to work but its not working as I want.

Lets say I have a button "Export" on the userform, This userform has a
dropdown menu, which has student names, and selecting a student name from
that dropdown would populate other fields on the form such as, Name, Age,
Task etc..
So if i select Student1 from the dropdown, I will get the data of Student1
displayed on the form, If i select Student2 from the dropdown, I will get
data of Student2 displayed on the form.
Now when I click export, I want it to:
- open a file dialog box that lets me select another empty excel file
- once i select the excel file, i want the details of the select student to
be displayed in Row1
-If i select another student from the dropdown, i want the details of that
student to be displayed in Row2... and so on..
- Once I am done selecting the students, I want to manualy save the excel
file where I exported the student data.

Is this possible?

Thanks in Advance

Hey Dave, Rite now with this code it is saving seperate copies on clicking

I want to loop it through the same worksheet and save the data on the same
sheet but new row every time I hit "Insert"

SO when I click "Insert" after selecting a Task from the dropdown... I want
that Task and ROll no to populate in Row1, then If I input a different roll
no and select a Task for that and click "Insert" I want this to populate in

I am trying to create a button €ŀœInsert€ÂÂ� in the same form.

What I want this button to do is:

Hey Dave, Thanks a lot for all you help in getting this to work.

I was working on this and I came across an issue where students input values
in "Roll_No" field that are not present in the sheet. Is there a way where I
can disable the "Tasks" dropdown if they input an invalid "Roll_No" or a
"Roll_No" that is not present in the sheet? So basically enable the "Tasks"
dropdown on form only if the "Roll_No" they input is from the list in the
sheet.

Thanks in advance

You're not really filtering the worksheet based on the roll number, right?

If you're not...

You can loop through the range.

Dim myRng as range
dim myCell as range

me.combobox1.clear

Hey Dave, to make it clear. Here is and eg of how the data looks on sheet

6 12
2 13
5 13
3 14
4 14
1 15
2 15
1 16
4 16

So lets say you select "12" from Roll_No column filter
then it will display

Tasks Roll_No(filter)
4 12
6 12

So I want this 4 and 6 to be displayed in the dropdown list on userform too
Is there a way to capture filter values(4 and 6) from a sheet to a userfrom.
So when I input "12" on userform textbox I se 4 and 6 for my Tasks Dropdown

Once you find the cell that holds the name, you can use VBA's split command (if
you're using xl2k or higher) to parse that data into an array.

Then use that array as the combobox's .list.

Dim myStr As String
Dim myArr As Variant

myStr = "1,2,3" 'how ever you find that cell would go here

myArr = Split(myStr, ",")

With Me.ComboBox1

Thanks a lot for you help Dave,
One more thing I wanted in my form was a way to capture filter values from
sheet2 into a Dropdown list in the user form. Is there a way to do this?

For eg, I have a column "Tasks" on sheet2 which have values 1,2,3,4,5,6 and
each student can have multiple "Tasks" such as..

John: 1,3
Jill: 1,5
jack: 3,5,6
Bill: 2,4,6
and so on... I have this column set as a filter(Behaves like a dropdown on
excel sheet), so John will have a Dropdown Filter with values 1 and 3 in
"Tasks" column

So basically, I want these filter values to be displayed on the form as
dropdown menu with 1 and 3 displayed for John.

What does "select another empty excel file" mean?

I guessed that creating a new workbook with a single worksheet would be ok.

That's what this did:

set newwks = workbooks.add(1).worksheets(1)
wksCreated = true
end if
