Re: Arguemnt not optional message

Morning.
I operate my button which inserts a new row.
It is this row I need to be upper case.

Re: Arguemnt not optional message

If there was something in the row you can convert it to uppercase but there isnt an uppercase format as such.

When i insert a new row by pressing the button & the code running i needed the cells to change the text to upper case when i type

Re: Arguemnt not optional message

Maybe try this in the worksheet module:

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

Dim rng As Range, c As Range

Set rng = Intersect(Target, Rows(6))

If Not rng Is Nothing Then
    If rng.Cells.Count < Me.Columns.Count Then
        For Each c In rng
            c.Value = UCase(c.Value)
        Next
    End If
End If
    
End Sub

Re: Arguemnt not optional message

I have added that code in to an existing code,see below.
Nothing happens when i leave the cell.
It only changes when i return to that cell.

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)    Dim myStartCol As String
    Dim myEndCol As String
    Dim myStartRow As Long
    Dim myLastRow As Long
    Dim myRange As Range


    If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
    
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    
'   *** Specify columns to apply this to ***
    myStartCol = "A"
    myEndCol = "W"


'   *** Specify start row ***
    myStartRow = 5
    
'   Use first column to find the last row
    myLastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, myStartCol).End(xlUp).Row
    
'   Build range to apply this to
    Set myRange = Range(Cells(myStartRow, myStartCol), Cells(myLastRow, myEndCol))
    
'   Clear the color of all the cells in range
    myRange.Interior.ColorIndex = 6
    
'   Check to see if cell selected is outside of range
    If Intersect(Target, myRange) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
    
'   Highlight the row and column that contain the active cell
    Range(Cells(Target.Row, myStartCol), Cells(Target.Row, myEndCol)).Interior.ColorIndex = 8
Target.Interior.Color = vbGreen
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Dim rng As Range, c As Range


Set rng = Intersect(Target, Rows(6))


If Not rng Is Nothing Then
    If rng.Cells.Count < Me.Columns.Count Then
        For Each c In rng
            c.Value = UCase(c.Value)
        Next
    End If
End If
End Sub

Re: Arguemnt not optional message

The code Steve posted was a Worksheet_Change code, not a Worksheet_SelectionChange code.

Re: Arguemnt not optional message

Thats because it needs worksheet change as i said. With selection change nothing happens until you change the selection. With worksheet change its when you change the cell contents.

Re: Arguemnt not optional message

Sorry my mistake.
So ive added it into the correct code but i either did it wrong or im missing something as i get into a loop when the msgbox appears and unable to get out of it whether i click yes or no just keep having to select ye or no.

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)If Target.Address = Range("A6").Address Then
Dim lastrow As Long
lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Dim SearchString As String
Dim SearchRange As Range
Dim r As Long
Dim ans As Variant
SearchString = Target.Value
Set SearchRange = Range("A7:A" & lastrow).Find(SearchString, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
If SearchRange Is Nothing Then
Else
r = SearchRange.Row
ans = MsgBox("A Duplicated Customers Name Was Found." & vbNewLine & " " & vbNewLine & "Click Yes To View Their Details", vbYesNo + vbCritical, "DUPLICATED CUSTOMER NAME MESSAGE")
If ans = vbYes Then Application.Goto Range("A" & r)
Dim rng As Range, c As Range


Set rng = Intersect(Target, Rows(6))


If Not rng Is Nothing Then
    If rng.Cells.Count < Me.Columns.Count Then
        For Each c In rng
            c.Value = UCase(c.Value)
        Next
    End If
End If
End If
End If
End Sub
