I have a userform that opens on cell change in a column. That userform contains checkboxes, which all trigger a second userform with a text box which looks up a cell on a hidden sheet for its contents. (The checkbox that's ticked determines which cell the textbox looks for). The user then edits the box, clicks a button, and the new text is written back to the same cell.
This is the VBA for when the checkbox is ticked. It works great. Hooray!
Dim vln As Variant
Dim reta As Worksheet
Set reta = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("RetailerActivity")
Set vln = ActiveCell.Offset(-1, -3)
UserForm2.TextBox1.Text = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(vln, reta.Range("A1:Z100"), 3, False)
UserForm2.TescoSave.Visible = True
UserForm2.Show
End Sub
When the textbox has been edited, I would like to write it back to the same cell it came from. I figure the easiest way to do that is to have a public variable (as range), and to pass the result of the vlookup into that variable so the second userform can have a line which reads
Private Sub ASave_Click()
publicvariable.Value = TextBox1.Value
userform1.hide
End Sub
Nice and easy, rather than doing a VLookup again. Right?
Either way, I can't seem to set the public variable as the lookup.
Outside of any sub I have
Public bums As Range
And in the code above, after the bit where I've set the text box, I've tried to add the line
Set bums = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(vln, reta.Range("A1:Z100"), 3, False)
But the code errors with a "type mismatch".
If I try
Set bums = Range(Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(vln, reta.Range("A1:Z100"), 3, False))
I get method "Range" of object "_global" failed.
I code by cobbling bits off the internet, as you can probably tell, so this is I don't doubt a complete kludge.
Any advice would be super appreciated.
VLookup returns a value, not a Range. You could use Match to find the row and then Cells
to get the actual reference - for example:
Dim vMatch
vMatch = Application.Match(vln, reta.Range("A1:A100"),0)
If Not IsError(vMatch) then
Set bums = reta.Cells(vMatch, "C")
else
msgbox "No match for " & vln
Exit Sub
End If
Personally I would also not use a public variable, but create a property for Userform2 to which you can assign the range.
