Hi everyone,

I'm in a deep predicament. I'm creating this spreadsheet calculation
sheet for my workplace and I'm having trouble implementing the final
piece. Everything else is configured. What I'm trying to do is, when
the user opens the excel file, it automatically opens a quick
assessment user form that asks them 2 questions for the calc. sheet...
Now I'm trying to show the FPIL percentage based off of client's
income dependent on the number in the household. How I've configured
that is I used the Trim() function... I have a total of up to 12
people in the Household and a chain of Trim functions to determine the
100% FPIL guideline for each one... well my code might better explain
that.... The problem is, My Code will only detect the first Trim()
Function for "1 Person". Is there anyway or what is it that I"m doing
wrong that is preventing my string of codes to not recognize the other
choices such as "2 People", "3 People" etc. I appreciate any help...

My Code:

ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Income").Activate
Range("E2").Select
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 0).Select

As you can see I have a long stream of If()'s and it only recognizes
the "1 Person" String and no more. So it doesn't fill in cell C53 with
the results with the rest if the user selects Households larger than
2. Please help me with any suggestions. Thank you!

Hi Thoren_dragonslayer -

You have a battery of 3 statements that repeat after each If...End If block.
These are:

Unload Me
Selection.Show
Worksheets("Income").Protect password:="example"

I suggest you delete them all except for the last set (in other words, leave
the set of three statements just before the End Sub.

What is happening now is that if Me.Household.Value <> "1 Person" the form
unloads and Me.Household.Value goes out of scope and is no longer available
for the other If...End If blocks.

Hi,

I think you'll find this construction will work better:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim Divisor As Long
Dim Pwd As String
Pwd = "example"
'Tell the workers to not leave these 2 options blank
If Trim(Me.File.Value) = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Select the date this case was opened.", vbExclamation, "Missing Information"
Me.File.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
If Trim(Me.Household.Value) = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Select the Number of people living in the Household.", vbExclamation, "Missing Information"
Me.Household.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
Select Case Left(Trim(Me.Household.Value), InStr(Trim(Me.Household.Value), " ") - 1)
Case 1
Divisor = 10210
Case 2
Divisor = 13690
Case 3
Divisor = 17170
Case 4
Divisor = 20650
Case 5
Divisor = 24130
' add the remaining cases
Case Else
' what else to do if you get something unexpected
End Select
With Worksheets("Income")
.Unprotect Password:=Pwd
.Range("E2").Value = File.Value
.Range("H53").Value = Household.Value
.Range("C53").Value = "=(D18+H18+D31+H31+D44+H44+D50+H50)/" & Divisor
.Protect Password:=Pwd
Unload Me
Selection.Show
End With
End Sub

As you can see I have a long stream of If()'s and it only recognizes
the "1 Person" String and no more. So it doesn't fill in cell C53 with
the results with the rest if the user selects Households larger than
2. Please help me with any suggestions. Thank you!

Hi,

I think you'll find this construction will work better:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim Divisor As Long
Dim Pwd As String
Pwd = "example"
'Tell the workers to not leave these 2 options blank
If Trim(Me.File.Value) = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Select the date this case was opened.", vbExclamation,"Missing Information"
Me.File.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
If Trim(Me.Household.Value) = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Select the Number of people living in the Household.",vbExclamation, "Missing Information"
Me.Household.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End If
Select Case Left(Trim(Me.Household.Value), InStr(Trim(Me.Household.Value), " ") - 1)
Case 1
Divisor = 10210
Case 2
Divisor = 13690
Case 3
Divisor = 17170
Case 4
Divisor = 20650
Case 5
Divisor = 24130
' add the remaining cases
Case Else
' what else to do if you get something unexpected
End Select
With Worksheets("Income")
.Unprotect Password:=Pwd
.Range("E2").Value = File.Value
.Range("H53").Value = Household.Value
.Range("C53").Value = "=(D18+H18+D31+H31+D44+H44+D50+H50)/" & Divisor
.Protect Password:=Pwd
Unload Me
Selection.Show
End With
End Sub

Hi everyone,
Click to expand...
I'm in a deep predicament. I'm creating this spreadsheet calculation
sheet for my workplace and I'm having trouble implementing the final
piece. Everything else is configured. What I'm trying to do is, when
the user opens the excel file, it automatically opens a quick
assessment user form that asks them 2 questions for the calc. sheet...
Now I'm trying to show the FPIL percentage based off of client's
income dependent on the number in the household. How I've configured
that is I used the Trim() function... I have a total of up to 12
people in the Household and a chain of Trim functions to determine the
100% FPIL guideline for each one... well my code might better explain
that.... The problem is, My Code will only detect the first Trim()
Function for "1 Person". Is there anyway or what is it that I"m doing
wrong that is preventing my string of codes to not recognize the other
choices such as "2 People", "3 People" etc. I appreciate any help...
