Add-In To Work For Different Files

Jun 2, 2006

I have created an Add-In and hard-coded the file name assuming that it will be used with a specific file called, let's say, Data_Approval_Project.xls (where Project would change for a praticular Project name, e.g. Data_Approval_Alpha1.xls,

Data_Approval_Beta1.xls). Then I would just need to manually change the path and the file name in the Add-In for a specific user group.

Now I am presented with the case of a " Multiple Project - One User", where the same user will have to work on Alpha1 and Beta1 projects using the same Add-In (which actually accounted only for one of the projects). Is there any easy way to get this fixed?

I was thinking about adding an Input box, asking which project user wants to work on, then write the answer somewhere in the workbook, and find and open the file using something like the "Data_Approval_" & the reply of the input box string command.

Macro Will Not Work To Process Files Stored On Network Drive?

Aug 1, 2014

I have a macro that works just find on my local machine. but it need to run from a network drive as several different people may need to access it.

A brief description of the macro.

The macro looks in an directory called unprocessed for any file named "*.csv" if the files are found it opens the file in excel and then copies data from that workbook to my workbook. after this the .csv file is closed (unchanged) and then it is moved to the processed directory.

Sub files()
Dim directory As String, filename As String, sheet As Worksheet, i As Integer, j As Integer
Dim filetype As String
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

[Code].....

Open All Excel Files In Directory - Code Doesn't Work For One Specific Path

Feb 8, 2014

I have my code here:

VB:
Sub openfiles()Dim Path As String
Dim ExcelFile As String
' Path = GetFolder("C:UsersKinteshDesktop")
Path = "C:UsersKinteshDesktopVBA programmingMaps"
ExcelFile = Dir(Path & "*.xls")

[Code] ....

NextCode:
GetFolder = sitem
Set fldr = Nothing
End Function

My problem is that the code all actually works (including the function and when I use the commented part), but pointing to this one specific directory (the one I'm using right now), literally nothing happens.

Work Out A Formula For My Spreadsheet Which I Use To Work Out Cutting Lists For Timber Frames

Jan 11, 2009

i need to work out a formula for my spreadsheet which I use to work out cutting lists for timber frames. I need it to work out if the width of a job is for eg 2400mm i need to work out how many timber studs I need so the space between each stud is between 400mm and 500mm and this will need to work for a range of different sizes of frames. I have it written at the moment and it just devides the width by 400 and gives me a amount of studs but it would work much better if it could space them between 400 & 500.

Open Files In Folder- Wait 30 Seconds Then Close The Files

Jul 5, 2007

I want to allow users to place files (.jpg, .tif, .pdf, .pps etc) into a network folder and then have my program open each file and display it for 30 seconds then close the file and the application before opening the next file.

1. Set up a loop to get a directory listing of the folder and write the listing to a text file.

2. Open up the text file and get the next filename in it

3. Open the file in the associated application

4. Wait for 30 seconds (or some period of time) and then close the file

5. Repeat steps 2-4

DoIt = 1
While DoIt = 1
Open "C:TempList.txt" for output as #1
Print #1, Files In Folder
Close #1

Open "C:TempList.txt" for input as #2
while not eof(2)
Line input #2, MyFile
Display MyFile on screen
Wait for 30 seconds
Close MyFile and MyApplication that opened it
wend
Close #2

I can get the directory listing just fine with no problems

I can open the files in the associated application just fine with no problems.

with closing the application after 30 seconds or some period of time.

I need some code that will allow me to easily send it a filename and it will know how to close the file and the application that opened it.

Files Saved To Program Files Folder, Open As Read Only

Feb 8, 2009

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)?

Convert All CSV Files In A Folder To Excel Files?

Apr 8, 2014

I is it possible to convert all comma separated text files in a single folder in to excel files. But the requirement is to have 2 sheets in each new file. first to be the full file - with all columns, and in the second sheet to keep only colum A B D G H K L M O P R S T V W from the first sheet. The second sheet name must be the same as the first one but without the first "wlist_" in the name.

One more thing. The third column in the second is called "COUL". there are short letters for colors in french

can they be converted with the sort in English like it goes:

NO = B
BA = W
RG = R
SO = P
JA = Y
BE = L
VE = GY
GR = G
VI = V
MA = BR
BJ = TA
OR = O

Here is a link to the both CSV and an example excel file with the end result. In this example i haven`t change the shorts for the colors. It takes me too much time with the find and replace function. And at the moment i`m really pushed from time.

Array Calculation From 2 Files Without Opening Files?

Apr 2, 2014

I have 50 files each with 1000 numbers in column A.

I need to compare every list with every other list and calculate the Pearson function.

I am ok with the vb code to compare every file with everyother.

I can do this by opening each file then closing but it takes too long.

Each of the 50 csv file names is in my destination workbook

I would like to define an array using the file name, then extract 2 lists without opening the files then perform the pearson function and place the value in the destination workbook. (The pearson function just measures the strength of correlation between 2 sets of numbers)

Saving Comma Separated .txt Files As .csv Files

Sep 15, 2009

I have a large number of .txt files that are comma separated files (but not saved with the .csv extension) that I need to convert to files with the .csv extension.

Is there an easy way to do this for all files in a given folder? Ideally, the files don't even need to be opened as they are are quite large in size (70MB+) and there are a lot of them (500+).

Convert Multiple Files To Text Files

Sep 26, 2007

I have about 100 Excel files in one folder that need to be saved as text files. They can keep the same name, but simply need to be converted to text files. I'd like to use VBA for this and I can't find examples that do exactly that...or ones that my limited knowledge can handle.

Excel files exist in C:Source and ALL of them should be saved as text files in C:Destination. Maybe there is an easier way, but I thought for sure there was a routine I could use.

Search CSV Files For Word & Make .xls Files Of Them

Jan 23, 2008

I have 22 CSV files. I want to search each of those files for a specific text string (ie: "profile" or "description"). When the macro finds the word in any one of the CSV files I want it to copy that complete csv worksheet and paste it into an excel xls file.

how I can go about doing this. Not also that while vlookup is possible, its very time consuming if i have to do this 50 times over and each time the csv files have different file names. that is why i want to search within a file (each file has its own unique identifying text string)

Search Folder For Files Containing "Temp", Delete Files

Jun 26, 2008

Is there a code that will search a pre-determined folder for all .xls files containing the word "Temp", and deleting those files?

Example:
In the root of drive M, I have several Excel files. Anytime one of the original tracking logs is opened, a temp file of that log is automatically created. I would like to automatically search the drive and delete all files containin the word "Temp".

I've attached a picture of the directory tree, in case that will help. The file will always be named "PO Response Tracking - Temp#######.xls", with ###### representing a series of either 5 or 6 numbers.

Look For / Add Up And Work Out Average Of Value

Dec 20, 2013

screenshot.jpg

Ok, so from the attached picture (screenshot.jpg), you will see a data export of staff losses.

On the table to the right, i need cell G2 to take the ID from cell F2 and then search column A and add up every time there is negative number in column B.

So if staff ID has -15 , -15, -10 and -10 in the first table, their summary on the right table will show -50

(PS, i know it says AVERAGE LOSS) but i just need it to be the total. So basically, from the loss log on the left, it just counts the total losses occurred by each individual staff member on the summary table to the right.

MIN & MAX VBA Commands Not Seeming To Work

Dec 4, 2009

I would like someone to explain the reason why when the program is run, the maximum value in column S successfully is selected by being colored in pink, but the minimum in column R between those pink max's (indicated by the entire row outlined in red) is not the minimum.

In other words, look at the numbers in column R. Only the 14.08 rows are supposed to be boxed in red. I can't understand why the 30.08 and the 46.08 are boxed in red??? And puzzling to me is why the 46.08 near the top are boxed, yet the 46.08 near the bottom are not boxed.

A3=8/15/06,etc...)?
