The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Application defined or user defined error

Asked by jezza12 in Visual Basic Programming, Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet Software, Microsoft Applications

Tags: , ,

I have created a userform (UserForm1)  with a listbox (ListBox1) using Excel VBA on Windows XP. The purpose of the userform is to enter property investing information into corresponding ranges on Sheet 2.  I want current and previous entries to be displayed in the listbox. On my spreadsheet I have 10 buttons next to various cells displaying the various categories of property investing data.  Depending on what button is pressed the userform's caption is successfully updating i.e. the UserForm automtically displays "Deposit" as it's caption after the button next to the "Deposit" category is pressed). Also dependant on the button activation I want the rowsource of the listbox  to reflect the corresponding target ranges on sheet 2. I have attached code which I thought would achieve the above objective but am getting the error: "Run time Error 1004 - Application defined or object defined error".     The line:   "UserForm1.Show"  is highlighted as the culprit in the macro "ShowForm".. Can someone please explain why I am getting the error and whether the way I have written my code is the most efficent way to achieve the above objective.  Regards.Start Free Trial
