‘* DESCRIPTION:     The following visual basic code was written when
‘*                  I wanted to consolidate the data from 26 workbooks
‘*                  and in each workbook, there were are 77 sheets. It
‘*                  would have been a very difficult task, if I had to
‘*                  do it manually. I believe this procedure will be
‘*                  useful to somebody else
‘* NOTES:
‘*  Before using the codes, you can change all the variables like,
‘*  Folder, File , SearchString, SearchSubfolders (true / false),
‘*  and other variables.

Create UserForm at Runtime using Code

October 23, 2008 at 01:53 · Filed under Userforms, VBA Advanced, VBA Examples

- Selva V Pasupathy, HSBC Global Resourcing, Hyderabad

The following code, I found at www.eng-tips.com, is the process to create a UserForm dynamically using a macro in VBA.

  1. From the VBE (open Excel and hit ALT+F11)you need to set a reference to the extensibility add-in. To do this, go to Tools/References and find the add-in Micrsoft
    Visual Basic for Applications Extensibility
  2. Create a macro module in the project file. To do this, right-click on VBAProject and
    select Insert->Module.
  3. Right-click the module and select View Code.
  4. Paste this code into the window:

Option Explicit

Sub MakeForm()
  Dim TempForm As Object ' VBComponent
  Dim FormName As String
  Dim NewButton As MSForms.CommandButton
  Dim TextLocation As Integer
  '   ** Additional variable
  Dim X As Integer
  
'Locks Excel spreadsheet and speeds up form processing
  Application.VBE.MainWindow.Visible = False
  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  
'Create the UserForm
  Set TempForm = ThisWorkbook.VBProject.VBComponents. _
            Add(vbext_ct_MSForm)
  
'Set Properties for TempForm
  With TempForm
    .Properties("Caption") = _
        "HSBC Global Resourcing "
    .Properties("Width") = 400
    .Properties("Height") = 300
  End With
  FormName = TempForm.Name
  
'Add a CommandButton
  Set NewButton = TempForm.Designer.Controls _
    .Add("forms.CommandButton.1")
  With NewButton
    .Caption = "Click Me"
    .Width = 60
    .Height = 24
    .Left = TempForm.Properties("InsideWidth") - 2 - 60
    .Top = TempForm.Properties("insideheight") - 2 - 24
  End With
'Add an event-hander sub for the CommandButton
  With TempForm.CodeModule
'** Delete This: TextLocation = _
      .CreateEventProc("Click","CommandButton1")
  
'** Add/change next 5 lines
'This code adds the commands/event handlers to the form
    X = .CountOfLines
    .InsertLines X + 1, _
          "Sub CommandButton1_Click()"
    .InsertLines X + 2, _
          "MsgBox ""Hello!"""
    .InsertLines X + 3, "Unload Me"
    .InsertLines X + 4, "End Sub"
  End With
  
  '   Show the form
  VBA.UserForms.Add(FormName).Show
  '
  '   Delete the form
  ThisWorkbook.VBProject.VBComponents. _
          Remove VBComponent:=TempForm
End Sub

Convert Decimal to RGB Color Value

October 7, 2008 at 16:28 · Filed under Formatting, VBA, VBA Examples, VBA RGB COLOR

- Selva V Pasupathy, HSBC Global Resourcing, Hyderabad
Last week , somebody sent me a mail asking if there is a way to convert decimal values of colors to rgb values. I thought excel solver addin already provides different ways to convert binary, decimal, hex values, so the function to convert decimal values to rgb values should be available in solver. But then I was not able to get function to convert decimal to rgb. I tried some functions in excel and made the function to convert decimal to rgb. I am not too sure if this is absolutely correct; but I have tried this with some of the decimals and I am getting the correct rgb value.

HOW SHOULD I USE THE FOLLOWING CODE

Let me know if you have any comment or feedback on this. 

Private Function Convert_Dec2RGB(ByVal myDECIMAL As Long) As String
  Dim myRED As Long
  Dim myGREEN As Long
  Dim myBLUE As Long

  myRED = myDECIMAL And &HFF
  myGREEN = (myDECIMAL And &HFF00&) \ 256
  myBLUE = myDECIMAL \ 65536

  Convert_Dec2RGB = CStr(myRED) & "," & CStr(myGREEN) & "," & CStr(myBLUE)
End Sub

Clear Controls on Userform

- Selva V Pasupathy, HSBC Global Resourcing, Hyderabad
The following code can be used to clear all textboxes and comboboxes on userform.

HOW SHOULD I USE THE FOLLOWING CODE

Private Sub Clear_all()
    For I = 0 To UserForm1.Controls.Count - 1

        If UCase(TypeName(UserForm1.Controls(I))) = "TEXTBOX" Then
            UserForm1.Controls(I).Value = ""
        End If
        If UCase(TypeName(UserForm1.Controls(I))) = "COMBOBOX" Then
            UserForm1.Controls(I).Value = ""
        End If
    Next I
End Sub
