I've undertaken a project for work with my very very limited knowledge of Excel VB.
What I am trying to do is automate the process of creating a new worksheet in a "Master" Workbook, rename and save that worksheet with the date it was created.
Each worksheet will hold a list of dates for staff members who have attended or attempted courses for that week and the information will come in via email in separate pre-created worksheet templates. The consolidated weekly data will ultimately end up in an MS Access db (but needs to be sorted and validated before upload).
I mean renaming tabs on the sheets, the tabs at the moment are called Output 1 (*****) instead of Sheet 1 etc.. and i would like that changed to contents in cell A9. If possible only the Output 1 will be removed and it will change to something similar "X-Ray (5E4TT)"
i have a workbook with worksheets named Output 1 (*****)
(the stars being a five digit/letter code - the only thing that changes on the workbook)
now the problem is, i pull of reports and sometimes worksheets can be up to one hundred.. now in cell a9 is the name of the report. I have found vba code to rename sheets to cell contents **extract below**
but any chance of renaming contents of cell a9 to a worksheet named Output 1 (*****) etc.. and if the contents of cell a9 can be trimmed so only certain part of a lengthy title
Sub RenameTabs()
For i = 1 To Sheets.Count If Worksheets(i).Range("A1").Value <> "" Then Sheets(i).Name = Worksheets(i).Range("A1").Value End If Next
I've currently got a problem with renaming the ActiveSheet when multiple worksheets are present. The code below, utilizes existing fields on the worksheet and a concat with static text. The code works great if only one sheet is present. However, as soon as the second sheet is inserted in the workbook, I'm now receiving a 1004 error (application-defined or object-defined error).
Code: Private Sub updateWorksheetName_Click() Dim fNumber Dim pCheckNumber
Hope i can get some help here as my vba experience is extremely limited. I'm trying to run a macro from a spreadsheet that will go down a list of file names that i have entered in a worksheet where the macro resides and open those spreadsheets and rename the worksheets in each file according to a list of names that i have entered in the 10 columns next to the file name. It's easier to explain with the layout of my macro spreadsheet: ....
I'm attempting to add a variable number of worksheets (dependant on the number of entries in an existing list), then rename those sheets to the name of the entries in that list. i.e.
LIST A B C With the list above, i'd want 3 new sheets added, one named 'A', one named 'B' and one named 'C'.
The trouble i'm having is that because the number of entries/sheets varies, i don't want to refer to 'Sheet1' 'Sheet2' etc. to rename them.
***Additional Info*** the first record in the list is always "W4" on sheet "Data"
Below is where i've got to so far (however, i'm pretty new to this so it's almost certainly not all that efficient!)
I have 5 Sheets and want to ADD a particular cell say A20 from 4 of the sheets onto A20 on the 5th Sheet. In Lotus 123 sheets are identified as A:a20, B:a20 etc How are they identified in Excel?
We published a 2003 spreadsheet for people to enter expense information, but some get cute and add worksheets to it (instead of sending in multiple spreadsheets). How can prevent a worksheet to be added to our spreadsheet?
I have created a workbook consisting of a 'master sheet' (this sheet is a worksheet in itself but also summarizes the totals from the subsequent worksheet) and subsequent work sheets. I wish to be able to add worksheets as needed while having the 'master sheet' still updating as you add sheets.
Let's say I have 3 worksheets, the first of which being the total of the 2 other one, let's say total Apples, Red Apples, Green Apples.
The first column has the name of the customer, and the other columns afterwards have several other values such as sales in 2012, sales in 2013, year-to-date sales, growth etc...
I want people to be able to type in the name of the customer, then the sales for Red Apples, and the same in the worksheet for Green Apples, and then their total is shown in the Total Apples worksheet. The problem is that not all customers will buy both, and so overtime the cells will no longer be aligned to have one formula dragged across both worksheets.
Is there a way to get Excel to search the entries in both worksheets and compile them in the Total worksheet, summing entries that are under the same supplier name?
I have an output in the form of multiple worksheets. I have found a solution to merge them all toghether into one workbook. But I would like the sheets to be named after the original file name.
Lets say my file is called 9252400.xlsx, i would then like the corresponding sheet in the workbook to be called 9252400
The code I am using for merging is:
Code: Sub GetSheets() Path = "C:Documents and SettingsDAJOMy DocumentsMD-CPHPI_Database-908315-3PlantInfo_Excel"
I would like to be able to use VBA to add a total amount from different worksheets. What I have attached is a copy of my workbook. It is a blank PO and at the bottom is the word total. Is there any way that I could use VBA or an add in to be able to sum the numbers that are adjacent to the word total on separate worksheets?copy.xlsm
I'm using a workbook that has one sheet that pulls data from all the others, displaying a series of rows that summarizes data from each worksheet, each of which is full of data. Its a worksheet that a lot of people use so its kind of tedious to use as of now, because whenever you add a new worksheet of data you have to manually create a row and then manually change all the worksheet references. Is there a way to make rows automatically add and update when a new worksheet is added? I know it would probably have involve some sort of Macro or VBA.
I would like one column (column A) to be an "indentifier" column. Column B is the customer name, column C is the customer city and state, column D is the customer phone number, and column E is the customer email.
By calling column A an "identifier" column, what I mean is that I would like to be able to go down the list and put an "x" next to each customer I would like to include in that particular workbook. I would then like to be able to run a macro which would take each of the customers with an "x" in the column A, create a copy of the template comfirmation call sheet, and fill in the identifying information from columns B through E into the copied template. Each worksheet would also need to be renamed the same as the customer name. It would need to perform this same procedure for each row that has an "x," making sure that all worksheets (confirmation call sheets) are grouped into one new workbook.
Sheet 1 is called "main" Sheet 1 contains 5 columns A = Blank B = Customer Name C = Customer City and State D = Customer Phone E = Customer email
Sheet 2 is called "template"
"x"'s are placed into "main" sheet, column A to identify which customer will be affected by macro...................
Essentially what I want to automate is a check through one list on the Sheets("Notes") in column A, with another column B on Sheets(template). If there is a match I want to insert a part of the row that the match occurred on Sheet("Notes"), and insert it above the row where the match occurred on Sheets(template).
Here is my code so far, currently I keep getting a "Application-defined or object defined error" on the line
VB: Sheets("Notes").Range(Cells(i, 2), Cells(i, 11)).Copy VB: Sub add_notes(template As String) Dim Rng As Range Dim i As Integer
how I can keep a running total of information added to a different worksheetS. They would not always be the same peson ID so I would like to return a match on any unique ID number found on multiple worksheets and add their values on a master front sheet. i.e this becomes a running total of items purchased per ID number.
I'm trying to make a macro in Excel 2003 to create x amount of named worksheets that are a copy of a different worksheet.
1. I have a main worksheet that will have a number manually entered into a cell (lets say A1); 2. I have a 'template' worksheet; 3. I'll assign the macro to a button on the main worksheet
If I enter '10' into cell A1 of the main worksheet, I'd like to click the button and have Excel create 10 copies of the template worksheet. These new worksheets should all share the same name with a number after them (ex: banana 1, banana 2..... banana 10).
I am tying to build a macro that contains a function to open a closed workbook, create a new tab, select the tab and then paste data into it before closing the workbook.
In a separate macro I will then want to open the workbook again and compare the last two tabs worth of data, to highlight where old data has been removed.
I have several tabs in a workbook that need different names depending on what is selected from a drop down menu on one of the sheets - "Staff Details" sheet. Any clever persons out there able to help?
The pictures' filenames are #s which are located in Column A of the spreadsheet. I would like to be able to have excel take the picture name, lookup which Row it is and then add the information from Column B, C, D and E into the filename. It would need to do it for all the pictures located in the folder.
