Hello there, MrIfOnly has been kindly helping me to develop my userform which enables the user to input new/edit/remove existing data. The original thread is here: https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/excel...try-into-several-different-worksheets-10.html



I am currently working on the search facility. He recommended that I post a new thread specifically on the use of .findnext in relation to this.


With the search facility, it only shows the results from the first worksheet it finds data in, I am not sure how I get it to function properly with the listbox.

Code:
[/COLOR][COLOR=#333333]Option Explicit[/COLOR]Dim iPtr As Integer
Dim mrCurrentCell As Range
Dim msaWorksheets() As String, msFirstAddress As String
Dim objCtrl As Control
Dim cNum As Integer, x As Integer, i As Integer
Dim nextrow As Long
Dim AlignLeft As Boolean


Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
CheckSize
ReDim msaWorksheets(1 To ThisWorkbook.Sheets.Count)
For iPtr = 1 To UBound(msaWorksheets)
    msaWorksheets(iPtr) = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(iPtr).Name
Next iPtr
Set mrCurrentCell = Nothing
btnSearch.Enabled = False
    cbContactType.List = Array("Council Contacts", "Local Contacts", "Housing Associations", "Landlords", "Letting and Selling Agents", "Developers", "Employers")

Hey Sheepdisease! (you'll have to share the story behind that unfortunate username someday):

I think I got this working for you. Give the following code a try and let me know what you think.

Code:
Private Sub btnSearch_Click()
Dim ip As Integer, r As Integer
Dim sCurName As String
Dim WS As Worksheet, WSnew As Worksheet
Dim lrow As Long
    With Application
        .Calculation = xlCalculationManual
        .ScreenUpdating = False

    Set WS = Sheets(msaWorksheets(ip))
    Set mrCurrentCell = WS.Cells.Find(what:=iptSearch.Value, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlPart)
    
    If Not (mrCurrentCell Is Nothing) Then
        msFirstAddress = mrCurrentCell.Address
        Do
            r = r + 1
            Set mrCurrentCell = WS.Cells.FindNext(mrCurrentCell)
            mrCurrentCell.EntireRow.Copy
            WSnew.Paste Destination:=Cells(r, 1)
            WSnew.Cells(r, 8).Value = mrCurrentCell.Worksheet.Name
        Loop While Not mrCurrentCell Is Nothing And mrCurrentCell.Address <> msFirstAddress
    End If
Next ip

    If r < 2 Then

    'create named range
        ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="ResultsData", RefersTo:=.Range("A2:H" & r)
    'populate listbox
        With Me.lbs
            .Visible = True
            .ColumnCount = 8
            .ColumnHeads = True

Thank you for responding, looks like it might work. Couldn't test properly because error kept appearing

Code:
Microsoft Forms
Not enough storage is available to complete this operation

Although results did appear, it was not possible to scroll to see the columns on the right.

I have seen that error before with similar code, but I didn't get it in this instance. Temporarily comment out this code:

Code:
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
        .Delete
    Application.DisplayAlerts = True

and let me know if it clears that error.

As for the scroll issue, are you seeing the scrollbar at the bottom of the listbox? If it is off your screen try resizing your userform and listbox manually before running the code, and comment out all instances of this:

Code:
CheckSize

I'm not sure what you were trying to achieve with that but it didn't work for me.

Let me know.

Thank you for the reply. The scrollbar issue was related to the design rather than code so moving the listbox bottom fixed that, thank you.

The error has gone and now I see that the code creates a new worksheet each time displaying the results. I take it the code that I have commented out hid the worksheet and somewhere within the code it is designed to remove the results once the search has been carried out so we don't end up with thousands of worksheets?

I believe that the checksize was just supposed to be for validation but I'm not sure now.

Hi All

I apologise if this is in the incorrect thread or forum, but this is the first time I have use any type of forum.

I have bene browsing to try and find a post on the web to help me create a Macro that will perform something to help me with my job, I know it can be done but my skills are lacking and therefore am looking for some help.

I have a list of values that may appear throughout multiple sheets within a given workbook. the values may appear multiple times. I am aiming to paste the information contained in the cell next the value that I am looking for into a new tab. each time the value I am searching for appears it will have different information in the cell next to it.

I have a basic code I have found but this only finds one value and overwrites it where it finds it.

Sub FindAndExecute()

Dim Sh As Worksheet
Dim Loc As Range

For Each Sh In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
With Sh.UsedRange
Set Loc = .Cells.Find(What:="Question?")
If Not Loc Is Nothing Then
Do Until Loc Is Nothing
Loc.Value = "Answered!"
Set Loc = .FindNext(Loc)
Loop
End If
End With
Set Loc = Nothing
Next

End Sub

Any help or guidance would be massively appreciated.

Thank you

@Sheepdisease: The code I had you comment out actually deleted the new worksheet and has caused problems in the past. I'll work on a fix for it and get back to you. In the meantime, don't run any more searches or you will break your computer with worksheets overload! :biggrin:

@WHW01: Please start a new thread for your issue. Thank you.

Thank you. If we are using this method to produce the search results, will the results appear in the order that the worksheets appear and which row within each sheet that data is found?

As an aside, can we make sure whenever data is added, updated or remove the relevant worksheet is sorted in alphabetical order, firstly by organisation name and secondly by individual name?

Ok, here's the fix for the memory error:

Code:
Private Sub btnSearch_Click()

Dim sCurName As String
Dim WS As Worksheet, WSnew As Worksheet
Dim lrow As Long
    With Application
        .Calculation = xlCalculationManual
        .ScreenUpdating = False
        .DisplayStatusBar = False
        .EnableEvents = False
    End With
Worksheets.Add
Set WSnew = ActiveSheet
r = 1
For ip = 1 To UBound(msaWorksheets)
    Set WS = Sheets(msaWorksheets(ip))
    Set mrCurrentCell = WS.Cells.Find(what:=iptSearch.Value, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlPart)
    
    If Not (mrCurrentCell Is Nothing) Then
        msFirstAddress = mrCurrentCell.Address
        Do
            r = r + 1
            Set mrCurrentCell = WS.Cells.FindNext(mrCurrentCell)
            mrCurrentCell.EntireRow.Copy
            WSnew.Paste Destination:=Cells(r, 1)
            WSnew.Cells(r, 8).Value = mrCurrentCell.Worksheet.Name
        Loop While Not mrCurrentCell Is Nothing And mrCurrentCell.Address <> msFirstAddress
    End If
Next ip
With WSnew
    If r < 2 Then
        MsgBox prompt:="Cannot find '" & iptSearch.Value & "'", _
                                        Buttons:=vbOKOnly + vbInformation, _
                                        Title:="Text not found"
    Else
    'Create Headers
        .Range("A1").Value = "#"
        .Range("B1").Value = "Company Name"
        .Range("C1").Value = "Contact Name"
        .Range("D1").Value = "Telephone Number"
        .Range("E1").Value = "Password"
        .Range("F1").Value = "E-mail Address"
        .Range("G1").Value = "Postal Address"
        .Range("H1").Value = "Worksheet"
        .Range("A2").Value = 1
            If r > 2 Then .Range("A2").AutoFill Destination:=.Range("A2:A" & r), Type:=xlLinearTrend
    'populate listbox
        With Me.lbs
            .Visible = True
            .ColumnCount = 8
            .ColumnHeads = False
            .List = WSnew.Range("A1:H" & r).Value
        End With
        
        With Application
            .Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic
            .ScreenUpdating = True
            .DisplayStatusBar = True
            .EnableEvents = True
        End With
    End If
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
        .Delete
    Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End With
    
End Sub

Unfortunately, this method of populating the listbox doesn't allow for column headers, but should work fine otherwise.

As for sorting, record a macro to sort each worksheet of data. Combine each recorded macro into one public sub in a standard module and call it something like "SortData". Then, in each place in the userform code you would like to perform the sort call SortData.

Regards,

CJ

Thank you for your reply.

Is there no way to get the column headings to appear whilst avoiding the errors? It looks odd having them as an entry on the first row.

With regards to sorting, I was hoping that the action would be performed only on the sheet that has been modified by the userform, which will make it happen quicker. How do we do this as it will be conditional?
