Hello Expert,

I've read previous post regarding border (Automatically put borders around my data using VBA),
And i used code provided by Rick Rothsein to try to solve my issue in my Userform VBA but the code will not add the border to the new data automatiacally once data is filled.
Which part of code should be changed in order to make the border automatically filled in as soon as data is added ?
My data Column is starting from A8 to Q8. I want the border to be automatically filled as soon as data is added. Thank you in advance. Can anyone help me. Code is below

VBA Code:
Dim LastRow As Long, LastCol As Long
  Cells.Borders.LineStyle = xlNone
  LastRow = Cells.Find("*", , xlValues, , xlRows, xlPrevious).Row
  LastCol = Cells.Find("*", , xlValues, , xlByColumns, xlPrevious).Column
  With Range("A8", Cells(LastRow, LastCol))
    .BorderAround xlDouble
    .Rows.Borders(xlInsideHorizontal).LineStyle = xlDash
    .Rows.Borders(xlInsideVertical).LineStyle = xlContinuous
    .Columns.AutoFit
  End With
 
Yes, You got the point, i wanted the border and data at the same time. It doesn't matter click button or not, as long as it produced border the same time with data. below is the code for Add button
VBA Code:
Dim text As Object
Set text = Sheet6.Range("A5000").End(xlUp)

If txtDown1.Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Fill in the Downtime", vbCritical
Exit Sub
End If

If txtUp1.Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Fill in the Uptime", vbCritical
Exit Sub
End If

Select Case MsgBox("You will saved the recent data" _
& vbCrLf & "Are you sure?" _
, vbYesNo Or vbQuestion Or vbDefaultButton1, "Adding Data")
Case vbNo
Exit Sub
Case vbYes
End Select

'Numbering
Me.txtNo.Value = "=Row()-1"

'Adding command
text.Offset(1, 0).Value = Me.txtNo.Value
text.Offset(1, 1).Value = Me.txtSection.Value
text.Offset(1, 2).Value = Me.txtDate.Value

'Day/Night
If Me.txtDay.Value = True Then
text.Offset(1, 3).Value = "Day"
End If
If Me.txtNight.Value = True Then
text.Offset(1, 3).Value = "Night"
End If

'Shift
If Me.txtA.Value = True Then
text.Offset(1, 4).Value = "A"
End If
If Me.txtB.Value = True Then
text.Offset(1, 4).Value = "B"
End If
If Me.txtC.Value = True Then
text.Offset(1, 4).Value = "C"
End If

'Machine
text.Offset(1, 5).Value = Me.txtMachine.Value

'Category
text.Offset(1, 6).Value = Me.txtCategory.Value

'Tube/Paddle/Side
text.Offset(1, 7).Value = Me.txtTube.Value

'Alarm Message
text.Offset(1, 8).Value = Me.txtAlarm.Value

'Problem
text.Offset(1, 9).Value = Me.txtProblem.Value

'Action Taken
text.Offset(1, 10).Value = Me.txtAction.Value

'Action By
Dim i As Long
Dim strActionBy As String

strActionBy = ""

For i = 0 To txtActionby.ListCount - 1
    If txtActionby.Selected(i) Then strActionBy = IIf(strActionBy = "", txtActionby.List(i), strActionBy & vbLf & txtActionby.List(i)) ' There is a space after comma for readability
Next i

text.Offset(1, 11).Value = strActionBy

'Machine Status
If Me.txtUp.Value = True Then
text.Offset(1, 12).Value = "Up"
End If
If Me.txtDown.Value = True Then
text.Offset(1, 12).Value = "Down"
End If

'Uptime Downtime
text.Offset(1, 13).Value = Me.txtDown1.Value
text.Offset(1, 14).Value = Me.txtUp1.Value
text.Offset(1, 15).Value = _
Abs(TimeValue(Me.txtUp1) - TimeValue(Me.txtDown1))

'Part Change
text.Offset(1, 16).Value = Me.txtPart1.Value

Sheet6.Select
Me.ListBox1.RowSource = Sheet6.Range("Passdown").Address(External:=True)
MsgBox ("Data is added succesfully")

'Clear form after add
Me.txtNo.Value = ""
Me.txtDate.Value = ""
Me.txtSection.Value = ""
Me.txtMachine.Value = ""
Me.txtCategory.Value = ""
Me.txtTube.Value = ""
Me.txtAlarm.Value = ""
Me.txtProblem.Value = ""
Me.txtAction.Value = ""
Me.txtActionby.Value = ""
Me.txtPart1.Value = ""
Me.txtDay.Value = False
Me.txtNight.Value = False
Me.txtA.Value = False
Me.txtB.Value = False
Me.txtC.Value = False
Me.txtUp.Value = False
Me.txtDown.Value = False
Me.txtDown1.Value = ""
Me.txtUp1.Value = ""
End Sub
VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim LastRow As Long, LastCol As Long
  Cells.Borders.LineStyle = xlNone
  LastRow = Cells.Find("*", , xlValues, , xlRows, xlPrevious).Row
  LastCol = Cells.Find("*", , xlValues, , xlByColumns, xlPrevious).Column
  If Intersect(Target, Range(Cells(8, 1), Cells(LastRow + 1, LastCol + 1))) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
  With Range("A8", Cells(LastRow, LastCol))
    .BorderAround xlDouble
    .Rows.Borders(xlInsideHorizontal).LineStyle = xlDash
    .Rows.Borders(xlInsideVertical).LineStyle = xlContinuous
    .Columns.AutoFit
  End With
End Sub

Above is code suggested by MAABADI. I already paste it in worksheet, Refer image for result, it doesnt produced border at the same time with data

This is a lot of code to read through.
Not sure exactly where you want the borders and what type borders.

Here is a sample of a small script I wrote.
VBA Code:
'Modified 9/26/2021  4:01:34 AM  EDT
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

Dim Lastrow As Long
Lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row + 1
Cells(Lastrow, 1).Value = "New Stuff"

With Cells(Lastrow, 1).Borders
    .LineStyle = xlContinuous
    .ColorIndex = 1
    .TintAndShade = 0
    .Weight = xlThick
End With

Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Glad I was able to help you.
Come back here to Mr. Excel next time you need additional assistance.
You saying automatically confused us. There are ways to write a script when you enter text into a cell the script runs automatically. Like below.
When you enter any value in Range("A1") the script will run.

This is an auto sheet event script
Your Workbook must be Macro enabled
To install this code:
Right-click on the sheet tab
Select View Code from the pop-up context menu
Paste the code in the VBA edit window
VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
'Modified  9/26/2021  4:43:22 AM  EDT
If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then
Target.Offset(, 1).Value = "New Text"

With Target.Offset(, 1).Borders
    .LineStyle = xlContinuous
    .ColorIndex = 3
    .TintAndShade = 0
    .Weight = xlThick
End With
End If
End Sub
