I have tried several different things to make this work and need professional
help. I have an Excel form with several fields (11 all together) that require user input before it can be or should be allowed to be saved. The first code I tried, and I was new at this with Excel, was to try multiple actions like the following (which did not work) Oh, I should say that it worked for the very first cell but none after that: Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) If Range("E10").Value = "" Then On Error Resume Next Application.EnableEvents = False Range("E10").Select Application.EnableEvents = True MsgBox ("You must enter a value for 'Department Name'") End If End Sub Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange1(ByVal Target As Range) If Range("E11").Value = "" Then On Error Resume Next Application.EnableEvents = False Range("E11").Select Application.EnableEvents = True MsgBox ("You must enter a value for 'Address'") End If End Sub Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange2(ByVal Target As Range) If Range("E12").Value = "" Then On Error Resume Next Application.EnableEvents = False Range("E12").Select Application.EnableEvents = True MsgBox ("You must enter a value for 'Contract Type'") End If End Sub .. .. .. Then I realized it was not working because I was changing the very name of the action that made it work "Worksheet_SelectionChange" so I tried nesting the If statements, which also did not work: Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) If Excel.ActiveCell = E10 Then If Range("E10").Value = "" Then On Error Resume Next Application.EnableEvents = False Range("E10").Select Application.EnableEvents = True MsgBox ("Please enter a Department Name") End If Else If Excel.ActiveCell = E11 Then If Range("E11").Value = "" Then On Error Resume Next Application.EnableEvents = False Range("E11").Select Application.EnableEvents = True MsgBox ("Please enter an Address") End If Else If Excel.ActiveCell = E12 Then If Range("E12").Value = "" Then On Error Resume Next Application.EnableEvents = False Range("E12").Select Application.EnableEvents = True MsgBox ("Please enter a 'Contract Type'") End If Else If Excel.ActiveCell = E13 Then If Range("E12").Value = "" Then On Error Resume Next Application.EnableEvents = False Range("E12").Select Application.EnableEvents = True MsgBox ("Please enter a 'Contract Document Type'") End If Else If Excel.ActiveCell = E14 Then If Range("E12").Value = "" Then On Error Resume Next Application.EnableEvents = False Range("E12").Select Application.EnableEvents = True MsgBox ("Please enter a Contractor") End If Else If Excel.ActiveCell = E15 Then If Range("E12").Value = "" Then On Error Resume Next Application.EnableEvents = False Range("E12").Select Application.EnableEvents = True MsgBox ("Please enter a Contractor Address") End If .. .. .. Ok, so I thought I need to simplify this and went to a Select Case statement, which of course also does not work: Private Sub Contract_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean) Select Case Excel.Range Case "E10" = "" MsgBox "Please enter enter a Department Name" Cancel = True 'cancels the save event Case "E11" = "" MsgBox "Please enter an Address" Cancel = True 'cancels the save event Case "E12" = "" MsgBox "Please enter a 'Contract Type'" Cancel = True 'cancels the save event Case "E13" = "" MsgBox "Please enter a 'Contract Document Type'" Cancel = True 'cancels the save event Case "E14" = "" MsgBox "Please enter a Contractor" Cancel = True 'cancels the save event Case "E15" = "" MsgBox "Please enter a Contractor Address" Cancel = True 'cancels the save event Case "E17" = "" MsgBox "Please enter a Project Title" Cancel = True 'cancels the save event Case "O10" = "" MsgBox "Please enter a Contact Name" Cancel = True 'cancels the save event Case "O11" = "" MsgBox "Please enter a Telephone Number" Cancel = True 'cancels the save event Case "A23" = "" MsgBox "Please enter a Summary" Cancel = True 'cancels the save event Case "A44" = "" MsgBox "Please enter a Request for Action Description" Cancel = True 'cancels the save event End Select End Sub I am hoping that someone has seen or done something like this and can tell me that this is possible. I really appreciate any help you can provide. Thank you in advance, Al |
