      Hello can you please add another automation that will bring back a selected data from the data tab back to form. For example selecting row 2 will populate the data contained in that row back to the original form. Or may be adding another button that will bring back a selected data from the data tab based on index or identifier like combination of the names or unique values. Thanks

    nice video. Couple things you should change, in the protection tab, don't allow selection of protected cells, this way the cursor stays only in the cells the are unprotected, so it works more like a user form where you can't select the titles. you also need to unprotect the refers to cell for the Option buttons. The option buttons are trying to change a value in a protected cells. this is why you get the error message.

      The problem with the above is that the macro will not be able to select the grayed out data below the form which is coped to the data sheet. To overcome this just unlock those cells then your above solution will work.

    • @SustainaBIT
      @SustainaBIT Месяц назад

      @@euh4367 That's very true, the only way you can call yourself an expert is dependent on the expertise level of the surrounding people, in certain contexts I say I am an advanced expert, with other people I may say I'm an expert, and certainly with some specific people I'll be humbled and say that I'm an intermediate compared to them (people I have watched online in the Excel world championship).
      and at the end, each of us is knowledgeable in certain areas, there is always the possibility of people beating you in a unique method you've never seen before, or with other areas you're simply not knowledgeable about.
      I believe this applies to any set of skills.

    Thank you for the video!
    I would like to suggest a slight alteration to the process.
    8:05 - You could omit the need to transpose (and by proxy, the "Raw" sheet) by moving the refence cells (C21:D30) to the top of the Data tab as a single row instead of as a column on the input sheet.
    Then, you could paste directly to a table on the same page using your process.

  • @microsoft-certified-trainer

    Hi Kenji. From what I know, there is possibility to unlock option buttons. After drawing the option button on the sheet, you need to right-click on it and choose Format Control. Then, in the Protection tab, you should disable the Locked option. After you protect the sheet, you will be able to select the Entry Time.

    Hi Kenji thanks for the video. I wanted to add that a solution to correcting the form buttons is by right clicking and going to format control, you will see an option tab for protection. Once you uncheck the "locked" option, it will allow the user to select the button even when the sheet is in a protected state.

    But here is an other way to generate a form more easily by creating the data array first then select a cell in the array and in the search console, Search for the function "form ". Excel will show a you a form based on the informations in the first row.
    However this video allows us to learn more functions.
    My methode is for lazy persons 😂.

    example:
    first staff value 1
    second staff value 2

    something like n+1 always on a new record

    Search to be made by searching by Number, email, first and last name (first and last name are separate tabs) will need both tabs to retrieve the right person
