Hello-

I'm pretty novice at this stage in my old years, but I have a project for my small business that needs to be wrapped up. So far i've built out the "Deal Entry" user form that will input data into the "Deals" worksheet in my excel workbook. Now I know that Excel is not a "database", but for the short term, this will have to work until my full stack system is built.

Below is my form that I coded. Everything typed into the form will go to the designated worksheet under the right column... It has been tested and it does work "if manually entered " into the form.

1) What I would like help with is how to have each "combobox" provide a dropdown list of "pre-defined" items that are on several different worksheets and THEN input that completed form into the "Deals" worksheet.

2) Next i'd like to know what best way would be to have the "TradeID" textbox auto populate on any submitted form and remain locked from editing or duplicating based on a column of pre-defined numbers from a different worksheet. The reason for the locking is that even if the Trade is later edited or voided, i need to store a copy of the data for compliance/audit reasons.

3) For some reason my clear and close cmd buttons are not functional on click event- Only Send and X at the top corner will close the form

VBA Code:
Private Sub CmdSave_Click()


     If Me.TextBoxTradeID.Value = "" Then
        MsgBox "Please enter a Trade ID", vbCritical
        
        Exit Sub

Excel Facts

Remove leading & trailing spaces
Save as CSV to remove all leading and trailing spaces. It is faster than using TRIM().
To make the form go away at the click of a button, you need an
VBA Code:
Unload Me
line in that button's click event (as last statement before the End Sub I'd say). If other code needs to use the form's current data, use
VBA Code:
Me.Hide
instead.
To load cell data into a combobox, use code like this:
VBA Code:
ComboBox1.List = Worksheets("Data").Range("A2:A19").Value

OK I solved Topic #1 for comboBox auto drop down... I went to my excel sheets, defined the column range names for the comboBox rowsource.

Excel Formula "Named Range Combobox" format


=OFFSET(Markets!$A$2, 0, 0, COUNTA(Markets!$A:$A)-1,1)

=OFFSET(Markets!$B$2, 0, 0, COUNTA(Markets!$B:$B)-1,1)

=OFFSET(Markets!$C$2, 0, 0, COUNTA(Markets!$C:$C)-1,1)

I know this is not a solution for VBA, but it's functional and my initial need is solved with just excel formula for now.
