VBA form question

I have created a 23 column spreadsheet with data validation cells using drop down lists and a few columns that do the standard date formatting (4/18/19 displays as Thursday, April 18, 2019)

Converting it to a table is not desirable and I would love to have a user form that "pulls" the validations from the existing cells in 2 sheets. Once the form creates the next row in the sheet I need to be able to go back and adjust values in the drop down lists without having to use the form which I only need to create a new row of data.

I am not a VB coder (although I am learning) but this is above my current pay grade. I do not know if the form would require me to clear the validation from a cell to allow it to do its magic or if the form can merely mirror the validations and formatting that already exist. I need the drop downs to still be functional once the form creates the row.

The form would only require a button on the main sheet labeled "New Job" with an "Add" button at the bottom. I can create the form using the VBA editor but am not sure of the code to insert.

I am more than willing to share the spreadsheet for analysis if anyone can help.

Best regards to an awesome community.

That worked! The only other thing I missed is the job # (column C) seems to have a number validation. It should be a plain text field. Otherwise this is Perfect!

Excel Facts

Round to nearest half hour?
Use =MROUND(A2,"0:30") to round to nearest half hour. Use =CEILING(A2,"0:30") to round to next half hour.
Dante, your code has helped me understand a lot as I try to learn VBA. Sometimes classes do not always help you in real world application. I was able to remove the validation on the Job# and get it ready just by looking at the code you sent me. I cannot thank you enough.

I appreciate your patience more than you know.

Everything is with pleasure. I appreciate your kind comments.

Dante, almost a year ago you were kind enough to help me with a userform. I find myself needing to add one more combobox to the form. I inserted a column in the worksheet in column V and set up a drop down with 2 possible numbers to choose from in the spreadsheet. I added a combobox to the form and thought I was replicating what you had done. I can choose the values in the spreadsheet but when I activate the form and click the drop down on my new combobox I do not see any values. Can you help me once again?

Hello, welcome again!
It is an old thread, it is best that you create a new thread for each topic.
