I have 2000 excel files all saved as different names.
The Names of the the files are all from greyhound racing results, here are some examples.
4th January 2008 7.30
4th January 2008 7.45
So we have the date of the race and the time of the race.
In these 2000 files there is certian information I want to retrieve into 1 excel sheet to run analisis on them.
So cell A1 in every file is always the same and may contain a number I need.There are several numbers I want to retrieve from each file but I want it to display in 1 sheet, now I can do this manually and may have to but lets see.
I have an Excel application (Excel 2003) which is stored in the default Program Files folder by the Installer; for example: c:program fileszxchello.xls. The problem I am running into is this file opens as Read Only in Vista and this is interfering with the running of the application. There is no problem opening the file normally in Windows XP.
I have been able to narrow down the cause of this to the User Account Control system in Vista - if I turn OFF User Account Control, the Excel file opens normally and my application functions normally. Is there another option to open the Excel file without turning OFF User Account Control because some users may find it unacceptable to turn OFF this security feature. Ofcourse, one option is to install the application in another location, outside the Program Folder, and the file would open normally, but the Packaging Wizard that I am using to package the application does not allow me to install the application in any other location and thus, the application installs in the Program Folder and I am running into this problem of the Exel file opening as Read Only. Is there a way out of this situation where I can open the file normally (not as Read Only)?
Last monday I clicked on my quick launch icon for my time card, which is in excel. It opened up, but I got an error message saying that excel had an error, send report or don't send report. Closed everthing out and clicked on the icon again, but this time excel oppend but the file did not. I get just a blank (don't know what to call it) spreadsheet. There are no cells to enter anything in. I do get the "File, Edit, View, and so on" at the top. I can click on File than Open and browes for the file and open it that way, but I can't open any Excel file by double clicking it in explorer.
I took two weeks perfecting an Excel file and was writing them to disc just now to transport and use on other machines. I opened the file to add instructions and the files are now read only? Propteries show read only on the written files but not on the originals???
I have a workbook that archives by date and is saved for 1 month at a time. At the end of the month, all the archived workbooks are moved to another location and are no longer needed.
The problem I am having is I don't know how to break the link between the master and all the saved workbooks. So when I open the master it is looking for the old workbooks in the folder location and they do not exist. How do I break this link?
I am about to write a macro and I want it to identify, from the C: drive, any .csv files that were created / saved today. I have managed a pure list before and I have managed to distinguish by filename, but selection by date would be exctremely useful.
I have a workbook with multiple worksheets. First 4 tabs are the standard tabs and rest of the tabs are created based ona macro with the unique names. Now i want to create the separate workbook for each tab by its name and , date and time stamp in a C directory.
I'm working on a project where I need to import 150 csv files into an Excel2010 workbook, with each csv file being on a seperate worksheet.
I would like to set up a macro to point to the folder I will have these saved in this up so that each month when I get updated csv files I can repeat the process and bring in the new data. how to create this, I'm very new to VBA?
I have the below macro which had previously worked for me, but now I am getting a runtime error. I tried troubleshooting this on my own now, but am coming up with nothing.
Sub ReName_Files() Dim rFiles As Range, rCell As Range Dim StrNewName As String, strOld As String Dim strPath As String Dim wbOpen As Workbook
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set rFiles = Range("A1", Range("A65536").End(xlUp)) strPath = "E:FinanceUtilization Reports2008Month End"
For Each rCell In rFiles strOld = strPath & rCell StrNewName = rCell(1, 2) Set wbOpen = Workbooks.Open(strOld) wbOpen.SaveAs strPath & StrNewName wbOpen.Close Next rCell Application.ScreenUpdating = True End Sub
I have a directory that contain a large number of files. How do i preserve certain files with specific filenames while other files are deleted?
For example, I have files that are named : "58-26150B", "58-26200", "58-26200B", "58-26500B", "58-26550" etc. Please refer to uploaded screenshot.
The files that i want to keep from the above are "58-26200", "58-26200B". The code should be able to loop through the entire directory & preserve only specific files while deleting the rest.

Dim nWave As Integer, i As Integer Dim ConvergedFile As String, Pattern As String, KillFilePath As String, SimilarFile As String
nWave = Worksheets("nomogram").Cells(13, 4) For i = 1 To nWave ConvergedFile = CStr(Worksheets("nomogram").Cells(33, 3 + i)) 'Loop through list of wanted file names "58-26150", "60-25950" etc Pattern = Mid(Trim(ConvergedFile), 1, 3) 'Update the filename prefixes i.e. "58-", "60-" etc
I want two sheets of my Excel workbook to be saved as txt file. The name of the file is compiled of a fixed part ("TrialList" or "BlockList") and two values from another sheet (subject and session number):
[Code] ........
Now, saving the text files with the desired file names works perfectly. However, Excel decides to change the names of the sheets that have been saved as text files accordingly. This is something I want to prevent from happening, since a second loop of actions will end because of the unexpected sheet names...
I tried to write some VBA code to loop through all the files in a folder and return the name of the file. (In my current example, all the files are excel workbooks)
Here is the code I have used:
Sub Load_List()
Dim lCount As Long Dim wbResults As Workbook Dim wbCodeBook As Workbook
Set wbCodeBook = ThisWorkbook
With Application.FileSearch .NewSearch 'Change path to suit .LookIn = "G:CFOMiddle OfficeDannyFine Tunning for JP" .FileType = msoFileTypeExcelWorkbooks
However, when I tried to run the code, it give me the error message saying: the defined type of the variable are not been defined. Seems to me, that VBA dont have the variable type as Folder, or File.
I have a folder with 20 Excel files. I'm trying to create a master list of all the tab names. I can see all of the files opening, but it only copies some of the names.
VB:
Sub GetTabNames() Dim wkBook1, wkBook2 As Workbook Dim stFilePath1 As String Dim FileList(1 To 18) As String Dim iLoopSheet, iLoopProg As Integer Application.ScreenUpdating = False
I work for schools use data to guide teachers practices in the classroom. My main function is to mine down through data for kids that teachers focus on specific skills with specific children.
I start with a big conference each summer. By hand I combine, by student name, the data collected over the past school year. We then tear down to student levels setting goals based on statistical analysis. I need to combine across all of these csv files in a way that appends the data from each into one line per kid. I thought that 'vlookup' or 'index, match' might do it. I don't know.
I have a music folder on my computer with a TON of music in it. Some folders have sub-folders as well.
I need an easy way to point to a specific folder and pull ALL the names of the files within that folder and all of the sub-folders and put them on an Excel worksheet.
So a brief example...
Main Folder: Now That's What I Call Music Sub-Folders: Volume 1, Volume 2, Volume 3, etc And within each sub-folder is at least 2 more folders named CD1 and CD2.
I want to pull the name of every song in ALL of these folders into one collective list in Excel.
I'm trying to build a macro to open multiple files at one time that will always be saved in a consistent drive. The problem is that sometimes there will only be one file for a month (ie only at month-end) and other times, there may also be additional files for different dates throughout the month. I wont know ahead of time how many files there will be, but they will always be saved in the same file name type that is "FILE DESCRIPTION MM-DD-YYYY". How can I build a loop that looks for a file on each possible day but doesn't error out if the file doesn't exist?
I have some code to email a single, different excel file to multiple Outlook recipients. I am using Outlook 2003, and Excel 2007. I always use Compatability mode in Excel as 2007 is not widely used.
The code is shown below. What I can't understand is why it fails at the code highlighted red. It tells me that there is Run-time Error '13': Type Mismatch, but I can't see the issue.
I am a complete novice with VBA and would like to write a macro that will allow me to import multiple text files stored in a folder on my directory into a single excel worksheet. I would also like the name of each text file to be output in a separate column for each row of data in the worksheet i.e. each row is 'named' with the title of the file it comes from.
The text files are comma delimited and have 5 fields e.g.
I have a directory where our customer service people deposit forms each day. The form is always the same, with a number of columns that need to be copied into a master list. From there they are analyzed, sorted, etc, then exported, so the number of rows in that list varies from day to day as well. Is there some way to have VBA import each file sequentially from a directory if I do not have the exact file names?
I am using this import code from a macro to start with:
Sub importdata() ' importdata Macro Range("A2").Select With ActiveSheet.QueryTables.Add(Connection:=Array(Array( _ "ODBC;DSN=Excel Files;DBQ=C:Documents and SettingsMy DocumentsTender Document(1).xls;DefaultDir=C:Documents a" _
I'm looking for one macro code in order to generate the excel files and give the standard excel file names.
Example: I have one master file in the given path like C:Temp and input box required to assign the number of file option. If I declare 10 files then my master file should get 10 copies and save it the above path....
I have a lot of files with data that i need to copy into a master file.
I could open each file copy the data i need and paste it into the file. But I know there must be a way to do a loop macro.
All the files are labled "Sauce Data "Date"". all the data is in the same place in each file. I can easy have a list of all these file names in a tab in a main file "Main Data".
I what to be able to open each file copy from tab "Sauce info" A1:B65, and paste into "Main Data", tab "main" and then create a long list of data.

I have a list of filenames in Sheet1, range A1:A20. These files can be found in URL http://mysite/x/y. Where y is the filename (including the extension) and x is the 1st 4 characters of the filename. So if in A1 I have the filename AB1234.pdf, this can be found in the link: http://mysite/AB12/AB1234.pdf. Is there a was in VBA where I can loop thru the list in A1:A20, and copy each from their respective URLs and save into C:Documents and Settings ?
I have this script (below, Krishnakumar orignally provided this script).
I'm trying to edit it to add cell values from cells C16 and E16 along with the worksheet name it displays in listbox2. So lets say worksheet "rollover" is the sheet being displayed in the listbox2.
I would like for it to look something like this:
rollover TT:'data from cell C16' TA:'data from cell E16'

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim i As Long, wb As Workbook, n As Long With Me.ListBox2 For i = 0 To .ListCount - 1 If .Selected(i) = True Then oWS = .list(i) Set wb = Workbooks.Open(FilePath & oWB, UpdateLinks:=0) wb.Sheets(oWS).Activate Exit For End If Next End With End Sub
Where do i find the numbering add ins for Excel 2000? I receive a message every time I open a document that says: I must load them for optimal numbering and toolbar behavior. I have looked in the add ins by going to add remove program, selecting Microsoft office, then change, then excel. under the add ins there is nothing that says "numbering". I have also looke on line for a down load at the Microsoft web site.
I have created an AddIn with code for menu buttons. When I delete the .xlb file it is replace with one about 12 KB. After some use it starts growing. One station had it to 1 meg. Could this increasing file cause problems for the code? If so, is there a way to keep it from growing?
I coppied this code from: http://www.contextures.com/xlToolbar02.html. Modified it to show menus but how to add sub menus? (This is the only code I found that works on Excel 2000, so far).
