If the active page is page3 or page5, then don't say hello when it's clicked.

It's giving me a headache. Can someone fix that for me?

Code:
Private Sub MultiPage1_Click (ByVal Index As Long )
With MultiPage1
Select Case .Value 
    Case 2, 4 : MsgBox "Hello"
End Select 
End With
End Sub
 
I know of no way to stop Hello from popping up second time you select Multipage page.

But if it would work you could have the script say Hello and then hide the Multipage Page

Trying this:
Code:
Private Sub MultiPage1_Click(ByVal Index As Long)
'Modified  1/20/2019  11:01:48 PM  EST
With MultiPage1
    Select Case .Value
        Case 0, 1, 3: MsgBox "Hello"
        .Pages(MultiPage1.Value).Visible = False
    End Select
End With
End Sub

Excel Facts

Fastest way to copy a worksheet?
Hold down the Ctrl key while dragging tab for Sheet1 to the right. Excel will make a copy of the worksheet.
Perhaps
Code:
Private Sub MultiPage1_Click(ByVal Index As Long)
    Static Flag As Boolean
    Select Case MultiPage1.Value
        Case 2, 4
            If Not Flag Then MsgBox "hi"
            Flag = True
        Case Else
            MsgBox "hi"
    End Select
End Sub

Cool, cool!!!


I made these adjustments and it's working as expected slightly :

Code:
Private Sub MultiPage1_Click(ByVal Index As Long)
    Static Flag As Boolean
    Select Case MultiPage1.Value
        Case 2, 4
            If Not Flag Then MsgBox "hi"
            Flag = True
        Case Else
        [B]    Flag = False[/B] 
    End Select
End Sub
The only issue with that is that when I make the page3 (value 2) active, then immediately click the page5 (value 4), it doesn't say hi.

But it does when I click any of the remaining pages before clicking.

I hope someone can nail that part of it for me.

Regards

I have used something like this before. I just feel there should be a cooler way. I am enjoying your concern. Thanks a lot.

Yes I knew you may not like this plan but the only one I could come up with. I tried Mikes code and it did not work the way you asked for. I noticed some problems but do not know how to fix it. Maybe he will be back.

I wasn't quite sure what your requirments were.
Perhaps this
Code:
Private Sub MultiPage1_Click(ByVal Index As Long)
    Static LastPage As Long
    Select Case (LastPage & ":" & MultiPage1.Value)
        Case "2:2", "4:4"
            Rem do nothing
        Case Else
            MsgBox "hi"
    End Select
    LastPage = MultiPage1.Value
End Sub

        Case Else
            MsgBox "hi"
    End Select
    LastPage = MultiPage1.Value
End Sub

Okay this one is cooler.

However, it shouldn't say the Hi for those remaining pages at all.

Let me be very clear here:
1. When I click page3 (index 2) or page5 (index 4), then say hi
2. When page3 is already active and I click it again, don't say hi
3. When page5 is already active and I click it again, don't say hi


So currently the code you wrote is toggling between the hi and no hi correctly for pages 3 and 5. However, it says hi for the other pages , which I don't want them say hi.

How about this?

Code:
Private Sub MultiPage1_Click(ByVal Index As Long)
    
    Static init As Boolean
    Static previousIndex As Long
    
    If Not init Then
        init = True
        previousIndex = -1
    End If
    
    With MultiPage1
        Select Case Index
            Case 2, 4 'Tab3 or Tab5
                If Index <> previousIndex Then
                    MsgBox .Pages(Index).Caption & " Hello", Title:="Index = " & Index
                End If
            Case Else
                MsgBox .Pages(Index).Caption & " Hello", Title:="Index = " & Index
        End Select
        previousIndex = Index
    End With
    
End Sub

            Case Else
                MsgBox .Pages(Index).Caption & " Hello", Title:="Index = " & Index
        End Select
        previousIndex = Index
    End With
    
End Sub

Sure!!!

After turning off the case else alert, everything is working smoothly .

I really appreciate your help .

I mean all those who gave a helping hand :)
