XlBuiltInDialogs

Built in dialog boxes

1. xlBuiltInDialogs

Make code writing easier by using existing Excel dialog boxes. Excel 2013 has 258 dialog boxes built in, and you can use any of them in your code development, depending on the context of use.

Most of the BuiltIn dialogs are based on Excel 2003 menu items, such as File > Print, or File > Save As. A complete list is provided in the figure 4 Excel Web App #1 Dialogs worksheet below.

1.1 The xlDialogPrint dialog box

To call the BuiltIn Print dialog box, the code statement is (line 3):

Code 1:

Dim Tmp As Boolean

Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPrint).Show
	
Tmp = Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPrint).Show

This will show the Print dialog box - figure 1.

xlf-xl-built-in-dialog-print — **Fig 1: Print dialog box** - code 1, line 1 - Show method

1.2 The xlDialogSaveAs dialog box

To call the BuiltIn Save As dialog box, the code statement in code 2 line 1 is:

Code 2:

Application.Dialogs(xlDialogSaveAs).Show

Application.Dialogs(XlBuiltInDialog.xlDialogSaveAs).Show

Application.Dialogs(5).Show

Code 2, lines 1, 3, and 5 all show the Save As dialog box - figure 2. The Dialogs collection is returned by the Application object Dialogs property. Collection members are indexed by the XlBuiltInDialog constant and are identified by prefix xlDialog & dialog box name (caption) - lines 3 or index Value - line 5.

xlf-xl-built-in-dialog-save-as — **Fig 2: Save As dialog box** - code 2, line 1 - Show method

You can use all the functions in the box. When the user presses OK or cancel, they are returned to the program. Using BuiltIn dialog boxes can save a significant amount of programming effort.

2. Finding a list of xlBuiltInDialogs

2.1 The VBA Object Browser

Use the VBA object browser
1. From the VBE menu, select View > Object Browser
2. Then Set Libraries to Excel
3. Search for XlBuiltInDialog to display the Members of "XlBuiltInDialog" as shown in the right panel of figure 3

xlf-browser-xldialog — **Fig 3: Object Browser:** - with members of XlBuiltInDialog class

Use the list in the figure 4 Web App
- Column B lists the index Value
- Column C lists the XlBuiltInDialog member's name

Fig 4: Excel Web App #1: - with Value in column B and Name in column C

The list in the Dialogs worksheet was returned by the procedure in code 3, where the Value and Name are stored in a 258 rows x 2 column array. A For...Next statement in lines 530 to 534 writes the list with the ActiveCell.Offset statement

Code 3: Sub procedure xlDialogList. Scroll down to view the 538 lines of code.

2.2 The xlDialogWorkspace dialog box

A list of Built-In Dialog Box Arguments is available at the Office Dev Center site: Built-In Dialog Box Argument Lists. The xlDialogWorkspace dialog box demonstrated here, has 16 listed arguments. Details are shown in the Code 2 window. In Line 7, arguments are passed by Name, and in Line 10 arguments are passed by Position. A comma marks each position.

Code 2: Sub xlDialogWspace shows the xlDialogWorkspace box - with arguments, by Name and Position

Sub xlDialogWspace()
'' Arg1: fixed; Arg2: decimals; Arg3: r1c1; Arg4: scroll; Arg5: status; Arg6: formula;
'' Arg7: menu_key; Arg8: remote; Arg9 :entermove; Arg10:underlines; Arg11: tools;
'' Arg12: notes; Arg13: nav_keys; Arg14: menu_key_action; Arg15: drag_drop; Arg16: show_info

'' Set Wspace - parameters by Name
    Application.Dialogs(xlDialogWorkspace).Show Arg3:=True, Arg4:=False, Arg5:=False, Arg6:=False

'' Reset Wspace - parameters by Position
    Application.Dialogs(xlDialogWorkspace).Show , , False, True, True, True
End Sub

The arguments are:

Arg3: Display - R1C1
Arg4: Display - Scroll bars
Arg5: Display - Status bar
Arg6: Display - Formula bar

and the line 7 code result is in figure 5 (left pane), and the line 10 code result in figure 5 (right pane).

xlf-xl-built-in-dialog-ws — **Fig 5: Workspace options dialog** - code 2, line 7 (left pane), code 2, line 10 (right pane)
