Select contiguous cells by ActiveCell.Interior.ColorIndex and apply bordersI've got some code that loops through a list of start/end dates and
fills in cells in each row based on the number of days between those
dates (kind of like a Gantt chart)
This works fine, but I'd like a way to add borders to the cell range
so they stand out a bit better. The difficulty I have is that the
borders are currently being added to each individual cell, rather than
one border for the whole selection:
Each set of selections must stay within the specific row, so I can't
have borders applied across multiple rows (hope that makes sense!)
Here is the code:Sub Ga...
inserting rows duplicates combobox's linkedCellI have the a combo box that calls a macro when changed. Its linked cel
is positioned directly to its left. Far above the combo box, I wil
need to frequently insert and delete rows.
My problem is the following: whenever I insert a row, the value of th
combobox's linked cell is duplicated onto the cell above it, and when
remove a row, the value of the linked cell is duplicated onto the cel
below it.
The problem does NOT occur when I do not assign a macro to the comb

Has anyone ran into this problem? If so can you tell me
how to fix.

Hi
you're probably searching for a number. If yes it could be that the
value returned from your combo box is stored as 'Text' (though it
represents a number).

List box activeX control and linkedcell valueHi,
I am creating a list box containing serveral characters from the wingdings
font set. I am using the activeX control version so I can set the font that
is displayed in the list box to display correctly. So it displays an arrow
symbol instead of the ASCII equivelent "é".
I would then like to have this single listbox containg these items be
applied to a range of cells instead of just one cell as defined by the
LinkedCell setting. I tried using a range in this field, but it only accepts
a single cell (for example A1). I would like to be able to have this apply to

"ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select" for filtered cells?Is there something that works on visible, filtered cells like

What I mean is the have cursor movement happening to what is visible yet
that works when the cells are not filtered?
Here's hoping. I thought everything was working right and tight till I saw
that these types of things aren't working on my filtered sheet? <g>
Thanks.

Linkedcell protection problemHi. I am new to Excel (and discussion groups!). I am wondering if someone
knows how I can fix this problem. I have a combobox that uses the linkedcell
property to put a value into another cell. I am protecting the entire sheet
except the combobox. The problem is that this protection is stopping the
combobox from putting the value into the other cell. Any idea how I can get
the value from the combobox to go into another cell and yet still protect the
cell from users editting it?

Combo box and Linkedcell does not work in Excel 2003Hi programmers,
I created a combo box in Excel 2000 and a linkedcell. They worked very
well. I updated to Excel 2003, and they don't work well any more. The
problem is when I click down arrow to select a name in Combo box, it shows an
error message as said that the linked cell must be unlocked. I have to
locked the linked cell. Otherwise, everybody can change data in the linked
cell. However, if I click on the middle of the combo box, it works well; and
if I click on the down arrow, it shows error message. Any one knows how to
fix this problem? Please help me. Thank you.

Try something like this:

Does that help?
