I am working on a customer complaint database. I want to implement a userform for data entry.
I have a button to clear the userform. It clears the entire form except for ComboBox2 that has results which are dependent on the selection from ComboBox1.
I get a 1004 run-time error based which calls back to the Match function I've used for ComboBox2.
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Clear_Form
End Sub
Sub Clear_Form()
Me.ComboBox2.Clear
For Each ctl In Me.Controls
Select Case TypeName(ctl)
Case "TextBox"
ctl.Text = ""
Case "ComboBox"
ctl.ListIndex = -1
End Select
Next ctl
End Sub
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
Dim sh As Worksheet
Set sh = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Customer")
Dim i As Integer
Me.ComboBox1.Clear
For i = 1 To Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(sh.Range("1:1"))
Me.ComboBox1.AddItem sh.Cells(1, i).Value
Next i
End Sub
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
Dim sh As Worksheet
Set sh = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Customer")
Dim i As Integer
Dim n As Integer
n = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(Me.ComboBox1.Value, sh.Range("1:1"), 0)
Me.ComboBox2.Clear
For i = 2 To Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(sh.Cells(1, n).EntireColumn)
Me.ComboBox2.AddItem sh.Cells(i, n).Value
Next i
End Sub
You will get an error because Clear_Form
clears the combobox which in turn calls the _Change
event and the Match
fails because there is no value in combobox. Simply add one line to the _Change
event.
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
If ComboBox1.ListIndex = -1 Then Exit Sub '<~~ ADD THIS
Dim sh As Worksheet
Set sh = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Customer")
Dim i As Integer
Dim n As Integer
n = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(Me.ComboBox1.Value, sh.Range("1:1"), 0)
Me.ComboBox2.Clear
For i = 2 To Application.WorksheetFunction.CountA(sh.Cells(1, n).EntireColumn)
Me.ComboBox2.AddItem sh.Cells(i, n).Value
Next i
End Sub
