Hello everyone, so I have downloaded this very nice data entry form from Excel Data Entry and Update Form. It will do exactly what I need IF i can add additional imput areas to the right of the parts order data entry. Now the contexture website says to add additional imput areas to do this.

If you need more input areas, follow the steps below, and use the setup and naming structure for the existing input areas as a guide. In this example, a third input area is being added:

  • Input sheet: Create new input cells, and name that range as InputC
  • PartsData sheet: Add columns for new fields
  • Input Links sheet, add cells in row 4, copy formulas across in rows 5, 6, 9
    • Adjust the InputCopy named range to include the new formula cells
  • SelRecordLinks sheet, set up formulas for new input range (use same cells as on Input sheet)
    • Name the value cells as SelValC
  • In the code (Alt+F11), add lines for new input area (InputC), wherever there is code for InputA and InputB. To find them, press Ctrl+F, to open the Find window, Find: InputA, Search: Current Project. Then, copy the line for InputB, paste, and change to InputC.
Now I have gone through the macros and I can not find a sel record links sheet, i have searched each of the macros for inputA, InputB, and I can not find them.

Is there any VBA gurus out there that can help me please.
