Max, Min, MaxLength properties example

  • Article

The following example demonstrates the Max and Min properties when used with a stand-alone ScrollBar. The user can set the Max and Min values to any integer in the range of -1000 to 1000. This example also uses the MaxLength property to restrict the number of characters entered for the Max and Min values.

To use this example, copy this sample code to the Declarations portion of a form. Make sure that the form contains:

  • A Label named Label1 and a TextBox named TextBox1.
  • A Label named Label2 and a TextBox named TextBox2.
  • A ScrollBar named ScrollBar1.
  • A Label named Label3.
Dim TempNum As Integer 
 
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() 
 Label1.Caption = "Min -1000 to 1000" 
 ScrollBar1.Min = -1000 
 TextBox1.Text = ScrollBar1.Min 
 TextBox1.MaxLength = 5 
 
 Label2.Caption = "Max -1000 to 1000" 
 ScrollBar1.Max = 1000 
 TextBox2.Text = ScrollBar1.Max 
 TextBox2.MaxLength = 5 
 
 ScrollBar1.SmallChange = 1 
 ScrollBar1.LargeChange = 100 
 ScrollBar1.Value = 0 
 Label3.Caption = ScrollBar1.Value 
End Sub 
 
Private Sub TextBox1_Change() 
 If IsNumeric(TextBox1.Text) Then 
 TempNum = CInt(TextBox1.Text) 
 If TempNum >= -1000 And TempNum <= 1000 Then 
 ScrollBar1.Min = TempNum 
 Else 
 TextBox1.Text = ScrollBar1.Min 
 End If 
 Else 
 TextBox1.Text = ScrollBar1.Min 
 End If 
End Sub 
 
Private Sub TextBox2_Change() 
 If IsNumeric(TextBox2.Text) Then 
 TempNum = CInt(TextBox2.Text) 
 If TempNum >= -1000 And TempNum <= 1000 Then 
 ScrollBar1.Max = TempNum 
 Else 
 TextBox2.Text = ScrollBar1.Max 
 End If 
 Else 
 TextBox2.Text = ScrollBar1.Max 
 End If 
End Sub 
 
Private Sub ScrollBar1_Change() 
Label3.Caption = ScrollBar1.Value 
End Sub
