PROJECT STEPS
1.
Brittany Keele works part-time at Heirloom Woodworking, a custom
woodworking shop in Irving, Texas. She is completing an Excel workbook that
one of the carpenters started but has not had time to finish.
Switch to the
Repair Quotes
worksheet. Go to cell D5 and add the following
comment:
Cabinetry can also be restored and rebuilt.
(including the
period) to the cell. Remove any other text that appears in the comment,
including (if necessary) your name.
2.
Use WordArt to add a watermark to the
Repair Quotes
worksheet as follows:
a.
Use the
Fill -
Black, Text 1,
Shadow
option for the watermark. (
Hint
:
Depending on your version of Office, the WordArt option may appear as
Fill: Black, Text color 1; Shadow.)
b.
Enter the text
Draft for Review
into the WordArt.
c.
Reposition and resize the WordArt so that the upper-left corner is located
in cell A6 and the lower-right corner is located in cell D10.
d.
Set the transparency of the WordArt text to
90%
.
3.
Go to the
Service Information
worksheet. Add a background image to the
worksheet, using the support file
Support_SC_EX16_11b_Wood.jpg
.
4.
Brittany wants to make sure that no unauthorized edits can be made to this
worksheet.
Protect the
Service Information
worksheet with the default settings, using
Kee!
e
as the password.
5.
The workbook includes a customer entry sheet, but several steps were left
unfinished.
Go to the
Customer Entry
worksheet. Select the option button labeled Option
Button 22
and then use the text
Design
to replace the placeholder text.
6.
Add an
Option Button (Form Control)
to cell F8, using Final Figure 3 as a
guide. Update the Option Button form control as identified below:
a.
Use the text
Scheduling
to replace the placeholder text.
b.
Confirm that the option button has a cell link to cell
$J$26
.
c.
If necessary, resize and reposition the check box control so that the
control text is completely visible and the check box control is located
within cell F8.
7.
Select the five option buttons in the range B9:E11. Align the option buttons
using
Align Top
formatting, distribute the buttons using the
Distribute
Horizontally
option, and then reposition them within the range B10:E10.
8.
Add a
Group Box (Form Control)
in the range A9:E11 that completely
encloses the five option buttons in the range B10:E10. Make sure that the Group
Box form control completely encloses the five option buttons’ text fields, which
may be wider than the text displayed for each button.
9.
Add a
Check Box (Form Control)
to cell C14, using Final Figure 3 as a guide.
Update the Check Box form control as identified below:
a.
Use the text
Custom
to replace the placeholder text.
b.
If necessary, resize and reposition the check box form control so that the
control text is completely visible and the check box form control is located
within cell C14.
c.
Format the Check Box form control so that it has a cell link to cell
$N$25
.
10.
In cell C15, format the Check Box form control with the label Repair so that it
has a cell link to cell
$Q$25
. Use
Paneling
to replace the Repair label.
11.
In cell J25, create a formula using the
INDEX
function to return the value from
the named range
Request_Type
(which represents the range A29:A31) based
on the value in cell
J26
.
12.
Now that the workbook is almost complete, Brittany wants to test it by adding a
record to the mailing list.
a.
Use the button labeled “Enter Customer Information” to enter the
information shown in bold in Table 1 below:

b.
Select

manually select this option—you will not be prompted by message boxes.)
c.
Select
Custom Design
as the Work Request
option.
d.
Select the
Cabinets
and
Interior trim
check boxes as the Job Type.
e.
Confirm that your information is complete, and then click the button
labeled “Save Customer Information”.
(
Hint
: Cell H2 will be selected in the
Customer Entry
worksheet if the macro has
run correctly.)
13.
To make the worksheet look neater, Brittany wants to remove the Group Box
borders.
Open the Immediate window in the Visual Basic Editor, and run the following
code:
activesheet.groupboxes.visible=false
(
Hint
: For this code to work, the
Customer Entry
worksheet will need to be the
active worksheet.)
14.
With the
Customer Entry
worksheet active, turn on Design Mode. Add a
Command Button (ActiveX Control)
to the worksheet, and resize and
reposition the button so that it completely covers the darker gold area within
cell D2. Update the button as follows:
a.
Use the text
Clear Customer Data
to replace the placeholder text.
b.
Use the Properties window to change the font to
Calibri
.
c.
View the code associated with this button. Enter the following VBA code
between the “Private Sub CommandButton3_Click()” and “End Sub” lines:
Range(“B4:B8”).ClearContents
Range(“D4:D7”).ClearContents
Range(“J26:K26”).ClearContents
Range(“L25:S25”).ClearContents
(
Hint:
There are no spaces before or after the parentheses in the code.)
d.
Confirm that your VBA code is correct by switching back to the
Customer
Entry
worksheet, turning off Design Mode, and clicking the button labeled
“Clear Customer Data”. The ranges B4:B8 and D4:D7 should be blank and
none of the request type, work request, or job type form controls should
be checked.
Your workbook should look like the Final Figures on the following pages. Save your
changes, close the workbook, and then exit Excel. Follow the directions on the SAM
website to submit your completed project.
