    Need Excel VBA guru to help with simple problem (I think)

    Why not cut out the ShowForm subroutine and simply use the .Show property of the form you want to show? or are there other commands you have stripped from the sub for simplicity?

    VLOOKUP(B2,emp2,False) NO RESULT

    ZZ the formula should be set out as =VLOOKUP(value to be found, range to be searched, column of range to return value from, whether an exact match is required) You need to be more specific with specifying your range. Something like [emp2]Sheet1!A1:B12 for example. Then you need to specify...

    IsCompiled equivalent for Excel VBA

    Thanks PH I have nothing against collection at all. However there is no need to group together my variables and in some cases there may only be just the one in which case a dictionary (or a collection) would be superfluous and messy* I have usefully used the dictionary in such a way before but...

    IsCompiled equivalent for Excel VBA

    I am trying to write a solution to addressing variables using a string equivalent of their name much like using a key to refer to a member of a collection but without the collection. The way I have succeeded in doing this is creating a temporary sub at runtime, calling it, then deleting it and...

    Limiting Choices in a Dropdown Box with VBA

    In what application are you working? ".Clear" should work for a ComboBox on an Excel MSUserform but I know Word has slightly different methods and syntax. If you delete ".Clear" and put back the "." then you should be prompted with a list of methods that are applicable to MyDropdown. If not then...

    Aha! regsvr32 scrobj.dll /n /s /i:T:\Acgscripts\wsc\userinfo.wsc works. And I definitely mean it this time. I've tested it and everything!!! Thankyou ever so much for all your help. A star for you

    I am using Windows NT so the first method failed and the second succeeded although still with the msgbox I am trying to eliminate. Where should I put the "/s" flag? ps. I hope you're not hoping you'd never answered my first query :)

    I think I am trying to use the dll to register the wsc (It may be that my understanding is off piste). However, I do know that the line REGSVR32 /i:"T:\Acgscripts\wsc\corporateheader.wsc" "C:\WINNT\System32\scrobj.dll" works but produces the pesky msgbox. I was hoping that it might be as simple...

    Actually TomThumb I was duped!! The code was running through without error but not registering the file. I have tried WshShell.Run ("REGSVR32 /u /n /s:" & Chr(34) & "T:\Acgscripts\wsc\userinfo.wsc" & Chr(34) & Chr(32) & Chr(34) & "C:\WINNT\System32\scrobj.dll") and WshShell.Run ("REGSVR32 /u /n...

    Limiting Choices in a Dropdown Box with VBA

    TD Probably the simplest way to do this is to clear down MyDropdown then individually add each item you require depending on the value of MyCheckbox each time you change the value of MyCheckbox. You can call the sub when the form is originally invoked Sub MyCheckbox_Change MyDropdown.Clear...

    sounds exactly what i am after! but where do i put the flag? my relevant line of code is WshShell.Run ("REGSVR32 /u /n /i:" & Chr(34) & "T:\Acgscripts\wsc\userinfo.wsc" & Chr(34) & Chr(32) & Chr(34) & "C:\WINNT\System32\scrobj.dll")

    How can I clear a (externally created) message box ? Currently I am using sendkeys[enter] but this is very hit and miss. The message box is created when a windows scripting file is succesfully registered - a process I call using WshShell within VBA. Is there a way to refer to this box. It does...

    how do I get data from a pdf file which is on a website.

    Fair enough I guss I was thinking specifically about the pdf I was trying to get data from (an official publication) and why they would want to stop people reading data from it. I can see that commercial sites might want to prevent people screenscraping but see no benefit here

    how do I get data from a pdf file which is on a website.

    I was just asking around work to find out the exact same thing to be told it cannot be done so, with the exuberance of youth and a determination to prove them all wrong I searched Tek-Tips for an answer but judging by the lack of response I guess I amy have to concede defeat :o( Begs the...
