I have a special use PC which will power a projector 24/7. When it reboots I want it to load Excel, open a spreadsheet, and then connect to the web to get data using web queries.

I have set my security levels to low and that does not help.

Is It Possible To Auto Save To A File Via A Macro?
What I Want To Do Is To Auto Save Directly To A Folder On Our System Via A Macro.
The Problem Is That Firstly It Will Need To Look Up A Cell ( D8 ) To Find Out The Job Number
Then It Will Have To Find The Folder On Our System ( Its On Desktop Under Job File Folder ) Then Comes The Hard Bit It Will Need To Locate That Job Number ( Cell D8 ) To Look Up The Relevant Folder To Put It In.

Is it possible to insert the filename automatically in formula after the input from the user?
I want to ask the user to input a filename and afterwards, call that filename in an Index-Match
I have the below formula with the sample filename:

"=INDEX('[filename1.xlsx]DATA'!C9,MATCH(RC[1],'[filename1.xlsx]DATA'!C32,0))"
Range("A2").Select

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have excel vba code to open .xls files on my server. Files to open are chosen by the user via a UserForm within my app, it shows them all their files in their directory on my server. How can I open their files (.xls) that they select but DISABLE the VBA from being able to run/execute, if they have any attched to the file?
I now have all code in place to open the file no problem, I just need to know how to disable the VBA part from being "turned on" when the file opens.
I run a macro which runs saves the active file to a different location to ensure that I retain the original like so -

the small code i'm writing just needs to do the following:
1. open an .xslx file selected by the user
2. copy 2 worksheets from that file to the current one
3. close the selected file without saving it.
This is my code:
VB:
Sub GetData()
MsgBox ("Please select a file"), vbOKOnly
Master = Application.GetOpenFilename(FileFilter:="Excel Files (*.xlsx), *.xlsx", Title:="Please select a file")
[Code]....
Opening the file works, but the last 3 lines don't because i don't understand how to declare "Master": however i dim it (workbook, object, variant...) i get an error on the GetOpenFilename line. If i don't declare it, i get an error while trying to copy the worksheets.
The Macro asks the user to point at the location of a report, it then copies information out of that report and pastes it into a master sheet. The part I am having trouble with is closing the file that data has been copied from.
I have tried different things to close it such as
can group all opened file in 1 excel tab instead if many tabs?
open thru window the file u want...

I was working on a tax file yesturday, just a long long list of receipts. and the file is password protected. However, I went to open it today, and I get a message that says: "Filename.xls cannot be opened. the file may be read only, or you may be trying to access a read only location. Or, the server the file is located on may not be responding."
It's on my USB Drive. I've tried copying it to my HD so I can play with a copy, but no dice. When I try that, I get another error message, : Cannot copy Filename.xls. The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable. I've tried the various fixed suggested in the excel help files to no avail. I did a search on the forum, but didn't find anything that seemed to apply or help me. The computer I'm trying to open it on has Office 2003, the one I most recently worked on the file on has office XP. Not sure if this was a source of the problem. Doesn't seem like it should be. Hasn't been in the past. I'm not even getting to the dialogue box asking for my password yet.
