Date in textbox

[macangc]

Hi All

I have 2 textbox's that drive a custom filter. The user enters a particular date in each of the textbox's which then filter the worksheet. Is there a way they can enter the month as well so if they want a full month then they can input June and June rather than 01/06/2011 and 30/06/2011. Current code below

Thanks

Private Sub Insertcmdbutton_Click()

With Worksheets("Service Ticket Detail").Columns("A:M")
.AutoFilter
.AutoFilter Field:=9, Criteria1:=">=" & CLng(DateValue(FirstMonth.Value)), Operator:=xlAnd, Criteria2:="<=" & CLng(DateValue(LastMonth.Value))
If FaultCat.Value <> "ALL" Then
.AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:="=" & FaultCat.Value
End If
End With

Try this code:

Now Just type month name in the two boxes

Private Sub cmdSubmit_Click()
Dim dteFirstDate    As Date
Dim dteLastDate     As Date
Dim i As Long, j As Long, k As Long
On Error Resume Next
For i = 1 To 12
 If Left$(MonthName(i), 3) = Left$(FirstDate, 3) Then
    'dteFirstDate = Format("01/" & FirstDate.Value & "/" & Format(Date, "yyyy"), "mm/dd/yyyy")
      j = 1
 End If
 
 If Left$(MonthName(i), 3) = Left$(LastDate, 3) Then
    dteLastDate = Format("01/" & LastDate.Value & "/" & Format(Date, "yyyy"), "mm/dd/yyyy")
    k = 1
 
 End If
Next

dteLastDate = Format("01/" & LastDate.Value & "/" & Format(Date, "yyyy"), "mm/dd/yyyy")
dteLastDate = Format(DateSerial(Year(dteLastDate), Month(dteLastDate) + 1, 1) - 1, "dd/mm/yyyy")
 If j = 1 And k = 1 And IsDate(dteLastDate) >= IsDate(dteFirstDate) Then
    With Worksheets("Service Ticket Detail").Columns("A:M")
      .AutoFilter
      .AutoFilter Field:=9, Criteria1:=">=" & dteFirstDate, Operator:=xlAnd, Criteria2:="<=" & dteLastDate
      If FaultCat.Value <> "ALL" Then
        .AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:="=" & FaultCat.Value
      End If
    End With
 Else
X:
 MsgBox "Either spelling of entered month is wrong or Last Month is less than First Month.!!"
 End If
 On Error GoTo 0
End Sub

Thanks for getting back to me

When I overwrite my current code with your suggested code i seem to always get the message

"Either spelling of entered month is wrong or Last Month is less than First Month.!!"

Im not sure why, but i do have a 3rd combobox (listing fault categories) which is also part of the filter, could that be the problem?

cheers

In firstdate text box and LastDate text box will now only contain the Months example "June" and "June". If you will enter any abserd text in these text boxes or if you will enter LastMonth lesser than First month in these cases only you will get this error.

Are you making any mistake like this?

It was the textbox name, I had changed it to firstmonth and lastmonth so just changed it back to match your code. However now the filter for the date doesnt seem to work and shows nothing. When I look at what it has filtered by it shows as

is after or equal to 00/01/1900
is before or equal to 31/01/2011

I entered June in both textboxes so dont know why im getting this

use this One:
On top of your code window include "Option Compare Text"

Option Compare Text
Private Sub cmdSubmit_Click()
Dim dteFirstMonth    As Date
Dim dteLastMonth     As Date
Dim i As Long, j As Long, k As Long
On Error Resume Next
For i = 1 To 12
 If Left$(MonthName(i), 3) = Left$(FirstMonth, 3) Then
    'dteFirstMonth = Format("01/" & FirstMonth.Value & "/" & Format(Date, "yyyy"), "mm/dd/yyyy")
      j = 1
 End If
 
 If Left$(MonthName(i), 3) = Left$(LastMonth, 3) Then
    dteLastMonth = Format("01/" & LastMonth.Value & "/" & Format(Date, "yyyy"), "mm/dd/yyyy")
    k = 1
 
 End If
Next
dteLastMonth = Format("01/" & LastMonth.Value & "/" & Format(Date, "yyyy"), "mm/dd/yyyy")
dteLastMonth = Format(DateSerial(Year(dteLastMonth), Month(dteLastMonth) + 1, 1) - 1, "dd/mm/yyyy")
 If j = 1 And k = 1 And IsDate(dteLastMonth) >= IsDate(dteFirstMonth) Then
    With Worksheets("Service Ticket Detail").Columns("A:M")
      .AutoFilter
      .AutoFilter Field:=9, Criteria1:=">=" & dteFirstMonth, Operator:=xlAnd, Criteria2:="<=" & dteLastMonth
      If FaultCat.Value <> "ALL" Then
        .AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:="=" & FaultCat.Value
      End If
    End With
 Else
X:
 MsgBox "Either spelling of entered month is wrong or Last Month is less than First Month.!!"
 End If
 On Error GoTo 0
 
End Sub
