Adapting VBA From Word To Work In Excel?

Jan 26, 2014

I have been using a macro in Word created from pieces all over the internet (credit to a user named matt198992 for recursion script). The code prompts a user for folder, then runs a macro called Publish as PDF to all word files in the folders/subfolders.

I want to adapt the code in Excel, but I am having trouble. Error on the line "Workbooks.Open Filename:="Path & DirN".

Excel 2003 :: Count How Many Times A Word Is In A Range / Word Can Be In Cell More Than Once

Feb 16, 2012

I need to count how many times the word Test is in the range B4:H9 with

Range N2 = Test the formula below works if Test is only in the cell once.

=COUNTIF($B$4:$H$9,"*" & N2 & "*")

But I have data in cells like below, this is all in one cell, so how would I have it count all the times test is in the range when some cells have test 2 or more times in a single cell?

5
Test
8am-2pm
Test
5pm-10pm

Jan 4, 2012

I am trying to automate the below process:

1. I have a excel file with Japanese words in column A and their English equivalents in column B.

2. I am trying to create a Macro and assign it to a button. On pressing the button Macro should be able to:

3. open a form where I can enter location of a word file.

4. Macro should open the word file specified in (3).

5. Macro will pick up first Japanese word from excel file (Sheet 1 - A1)

6. Search for that word in Word file

7. Replace the Japanese words in Word file with their English equivalent from excel (B1)

8. Then it should search for second word (A2) and replace with its equivalent (B2) and so on till it reaches last filled cell in excel file column A.

After a lot of search I could find a code from net (Below), made a few changes, but it is not working.

========================================================
Private Sub OK_Click()
' Requires a reference to Microsoft Word xx.x Object Library
Dim sFile As String

Replace Word In MS Word With Varable From MS Excel

May 1, 2009

I am in the middle of automating a process here at work, the program takes a word, "pencil" for example, from excel. It will then open up a word document with content already in it (premade template). The program will then find all instances of a string, "placepencilhere" for example, and will replace that instance with the string from excel.

Basically I want to be able to take a variable that has a stored string value from excel and use it to replace another variable in a word document.

I tried recording a replace (ctrl+f, replace tab) macro, copying the code, and inserting it into the excel vba code.. but I get a error message. Here is what I have:

Adapting Offset Indirect Formula?

Nov 7, 2012

Although I have seen lots of formulae to total a dynamic column, I found a brilliant formula on the Internet, as follows

HTML Code:

=SUM(OFFSET(INDIRECT("R1C",),,,ROW() -1))

The problem is I cannot work out how to adapt it to total across rows (which will expand with new columns).

Adapting Code To Merge Data From Multiple Ranges

Mar 15, 2009

I'm in the process of combining a lot of worksheets into one and found the code on the following site:

[url]

which almost does what I need. I understand how it works (i think!) but as a vba novice I can't work out how to adapt the code to copy more than one range from the source workbooks.

What I want to be able to do is copy say the following cells from each workbook:

A1

D1

d4:D7

I think what I need to do is call the getdata macro multiple times with different ranges, but I can't quite work out how to do that without simply creating multiple copies of the master file.

Recovering Lost Excel Work

Jan 12, 2013

I have been working on some files in excel for several days, saving regularly, etc. but have run into a huge problem. I was marking cells with a background color to organize and track my work, but the files being saved were .csv's.

From my research, it seems that .csv's only save data, not formatting such as cell background colors.

However, while I was working on the files, they displayed the colors correctly etc.

I am hoping that there is some sort of temporary file created by excel that would allow me to re-open my work and have the coloring appear so I can save the work as an .xlsx file with formatting.

I have renamed some cells to custom names eg. renamed cell A1 to FLIGHT and B1 to FLIGHT2.

When I apply a filter to the columns and autofilter, the renamed cell now refers to a different cell! ie. FLIGHT no longer has the same text value in it

This also only happens when I autofilter by alphabetically or highest/lowest values

Excel 2007 :: Macro Doesn't Work For Certain User

May 7, 2014

I have created a macro that a couple of us can run at the end of the day that looks in a preset folder and has whatever .xlsx files in that append to each other creating one .txt file. It then saves that .txt file and runs a batch file that strips off the .txt file extension. This is the format we need the ending file to be in so we can FTP it to another agency.

Myself and another coworker can run it without any problem and it asks us if we want to save the .txt file before it closes it and runs the batch file stripping off the .txt extension. We say yes and it executes as designed. Another coworker runs it and it looks like the files are appending then the window closes. Never prompts him if he wants to save and the file is nowhere to be found. From what I have researched all his excel settings match ours. We are all running the same OS (XP) and version of MS Office (2007). The part of the macro that seems to just be ignored is below:

[Code] .......

Then the following batch file runs stripping the .txt file extension:

FOR /R "T:Cash ManagementUnsecured\_Team - DisbursAUTOMATIONInput" %%f IN (*.txt) DO REN "%%f" *.

I have tired removing the ActiveWorkbook.Save command thinking it would default to prompt him to save it but it doesn't.

Excel 2010 :: Formula That Will Work With Text And Numbers?

Dec 10, 2013

I am working in Excel 2010 (Windows 8) and am having real problems trying to find a function/formula that will work with both numbers and text. I am trying to identify if the contents of Col A cells and Col C cells on each row are duplicated within a worksheet, and if they are, to add a 'J'.

(Column A is a list of numerical company codes and Column C is a list of adviser codes using the letter A-G. If a company ID code has more than one of the same adviser codes referenced to it, it is termed 'Joint', hence the 'J').

The formula I've used is: =IF(A2:C2, FREQUENCY>1, "J")

But it tells me 'numbers only'.
