Hello

I created a User Form that requires the client to complete. The client enters/selects information in various text boxes and combo boxes, selects SAVE at the end of the form and the info is copied in a specific Worksheet entitled Staffing-Processes. The Value in Combo Box entitled TestBranch is key for the next step. Based on the value they select; example: Science, the information is also copied into the Staffing-Science Worksheet. There are 11 different Branches, and they all have their own Worksheet.

this is what I have:

VBA Code: 
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

Dim TargetRow8 As Integer
Dim TargetRow9 As Integer
Dim TargetRow10 As Integer
Dim TargetRow11 As Integer
Dim FullName As String 'full name
Dim Sel As Variant

Sel = Me.TestBranch.Value

      

If Sheets("Engine").Range("A3").Value = "NEW" Then
TargetRow = Sheets("Engine").Range("A2").Value + 1
Else
TargetRow = Sheets("Engine").Range("A4").Value
End If

this continues for the other Branches

the code presently copies the info on the User Form to ALL worksheets, not just the one that equals the Value in the ComboBox

can I get some assistance

thank you

thank you

so I still need to create a table with all the information shown previously and have it reside in "Sheet 7" or whatever other sheet I choose ... right?

what does

represent?
and what does

mean?

I really appreciate your help with this

Yes - you still need a Sheet7 (or put it on some other sheet) with this data. I would create a name range for it.

The rows in should match up with your ComboBox list
Cols A - D are
A - What is displayed in the ComboBox
B - Corresponding Sheet name
C - Name References (I do not have these so I will need your help)
D - Range Address in the Engines sheet for Row, New and Row (3 values for each menu selection as defined in Engines)


wks.Range("$B$1:$B$14") - this is the hardcoded Range for the info on Sheet7 (including the header row). It should be a named range eventually.

values = wks.Range("A" & r & ":D" & r).Value - this is a row of data from Sheet7 (corresponding to ComboBox selection.) By using the .Value method a 2 dimensional array is created with the values from the row. Sine the range is only for 1 row the values we want are in (1,1), (1,2), (1,3), and (1,4) where:
(1,1) - is the menu (ComboBox string),
(1,2) - corresponding sheet name,
(1,3) - Refences (I assumed these are name ranges (which I do not have or know))
(1,4) - Address range from the Engines sheet

These are columns A-D described above.

Excel Facts

Square and cube roots
The =SQRT(25) is a square root. For a cube root, use =125^(1/3). For a fourth root, use =625^(1/4).

you did get the correct

Office of the President is A46:48

operations will be created during a different process independent from this one but using the similar coding...none for the DAD sheet
Click to expand...
so I created the table in Sheet 1, the different sheets are in column B from 1 to 13, the ComboBox name is TestBranch

and when I try to run it, I get this message

Change the code slightly.

We are now looking for the long string from the ComboBox in Column A (not B).

tmpWksName = ComboBox1.Value
Set wks = Worksheets("Sheet7")
Set rng = wks.Range("$A$1:$A$14")
r = WorksheetFunction.Match(tmpWksName, rng, 0)
values = wks.Range("A" & r & ":D" & r).Value

here is how I am populating the ComboBox in the form initialization code:
I pulls the entries from my Sheet7 (Column A) - I assume the DAD and Operations entries should not be in that Sheet? Correct?
Should "Staffing-Processes" be on that Sheet (since we automatically update that sheet I assume it does not need to be a menu selection.)

VBA Code: 
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
  Dim wks As Worksheet
  Set wks = Worksheets("Sheet7")
  For Each v In wks.Range("A2:A13").Value
    If Left(v, 3) <> "xxx" Then
    ComboBox1.AddItem v
  Next
End Su

The DAD, Operations and Staffing-Processes does not need to be on the sheet

right now when I select: NEW Staffing .....
1690505713212.png

the UserForm opens with this code

Sub ShowTestUserForm()

Sheets("Engine").Range("A3").Value = "NEW"
Sheets("Engine").Range("A11").Value = "NEW"
Sheets("Engine").Range("A15").Value = "NEW"
Sheets("Engine").Range("A19").Value = "NEW"
Sheets("Engine").Range("A23").Value = "NEW"
Sheets("Engine").Range("A27").Value = "NEW"
Sheets("Engine").Range("A31").Value = "NEW"
Sheets("Engine").Range("A35").Value = "NEW"
Sheets("Engine").Range("A39").Value = "NEW"
Sheets("Engine").Range("A43").Value = "NEW"
Sheets("Engine").Range("A47").Value = "NEW"
Sheets("Engine").Range("A51").Value = "NEW"
TextAdvior.Show

End Sub

the UserForm is called TextAdvior
it also makes sure that on the Engine sheet all the respective cells show NEW because there is also an EDIT option that is yet to be finalized....NEW triggers a new row to be created where the EDIT mode will allow me to EDIT an already existing entry.

I suggest the following code to initialize your Engine sheet values to "New". It is cleaner and eliminated redundant coding.

VBA Code: 
  Dim wks As Worksheet
  Dim addr
  rngaddrs = Array("A3", "A11", "A15", "A19", "A23", "A27", "A31", "A35", "A39", "A43", "A47", "A51")
  
  Set wks = Worksheets("Engine")
  For Each addr In rngaddrs
    wks.Range(addr) = "NEW"
  End

Here is a way to initialize Engine sheet values to "NEW" using the information from Sheet7, Column D
VBA Code: 
  Dim wks As Worksheet
  Dim wksEngine As Worksheet
  Dim addr
  
  Set wksEngine = Worksheets("Engine")
  Set wks = Worksheets("Sheet7")
  
  For Each v In wks.Range("D2:D13").Value
    tmp = Split(v, ":")
    addr = Left(tmp(0), 1) & (Mid(tmp(0), 2) + 1) 'get first value in the range and increment it by one (1)  "A10" becomes "A11'
    wksEngine.Range(addr) = "NEW"
  Next

so....

are suggesting that I change the present code I use when I initialize the UserForm to the code above OR insert this code to the coding that fills the worksheets?

also, I still get the error message

1690510073589.png

can help on how to fix that issue?

thank you for all your help .... didn't realize it was going to be that much
