Automatically Combining Records From 2 Files Into One Database
Aug 30, 2013
Specifically, I have customer sales data from my web site that contains order numbers and sales data. From Google analytics, I have transaction information that also contains the order number. The data element that is common to both is order number. I can't just paste columns from one file into the other because the records listed in rows may not match up.
I don't want to have to copy and paste data from one file to another for each record manually since I have thousands of records. Is there a way to merge the two files together automatically by having Excel "understand" that it should pair the two files together using the order number to create a row that contains data from both files?

example of a database user form that will allow me to list records in a sheet as well as search for records in a sheet. I know excel has a built in feature for this but it is menu driven and I need something that is button driven and will allow me to resize the form layout. I was not able to figure out how to do that with the built in form.

I have a problem in excel that is very urgent to resolve. I have a table that contains duplicate records e.g two people living at same address. I want to merge those records whose address field value is same. Find attached an excel sheet that contains the exact data and the exact output that I want. I know it requires VBA coding.

In my sheet I have it search for duplicate records and give those records the same id. Is there anyway to combine data into one record. For example, I have a person with a value in column Points1, on another row a value in column Points2, and another row a value in column Points3. I want take those values from the duplicate records and put them all in one record. I've attached a sample.

I'm creating an Excel UserForm where the user can view, edit, and delete records they've entered.
The following code is for Deleting a selected record, and it IS WORKING. But it seems TOO SIMPLE and I want to be sure it's correct and not leaving any loose ends in the Database file that could cause corruption later on....
Sub vCLdbDel()
Dim cnt As ADODB.Connection
Dim dbPath, dbName As String
Dim stSQLAs String
Dim stCon As String
Dim dbid As Long
Run "setvars"
'Get the dbID from the selected Item in the list
With vCL.CLdbList
dbid = .List(.ListIndex, 6)
End With
'Path & FileName to the Database File
dbPath = M. Range("G2").Value
dbName = M.Range("G3").Value

I am a building a database where each row represents a record. Each record has a unique identifier number.
In worksheet "Record Search and Amend", I have recorded a macro to look up the data.
The problem is once the record is retrieved I need to be able to amend the record and save it back into the database in the right row. This could be another button to initiate this action.

I am using ADO to retrieve records from an MS ACCESS DB in Excel. All my queries work fine but I am having problems with subqueries. My subqueries work fine in ACCESS but when I execute them via ADO I get the following error message:'"The SELECT statement includes a reserved word or an argument name that is misspelled or missing, or the punctuation is incorrect".
with the correct syntax. Alternatively I was thinking of creating a view in ACCESS but that seems not possible.
PHP Code:
Sub retrieve_loan_details()
Dim Provider As String
Dim Source As String
Dim sConn As String
Dim sSql As String
Dim rep_per As Date
[Code]...

This is my invoice. I want to be able to create a database record of every transaction. In the end I want to be able to export this data into Access, but it needs to be in sequential rows and columns. I want to be able to list the cells on Sheet 1 that have Data in them in the configuration on Sheet 2 that I have listed. What I need to keep in mind is that someone might have 1 item in a transaction and others might have 5. So I need the ShopID and Customer information to appear in front of every item listed in rows 20-27.

I am having trouble with my excel spreadsheet, which I am using in effect as a database. I do realise that Access or something would be better but lets just say I'm forced to use this method.
Basically, i have a table of records storing names and addresses, identifiable by a reference number, "ID" eg. record number 001,002 etc.
I need to be able to display a given ID number's record on a different sheet in the same document. I have already achieved this by using a macro and some VLOOKUP's.
So, in my second sheet, I have person 001 for example and their name, address, post code, telephone number is displayed each in its own seperate cell.
What I need to do now, is create a macro of some sort that will allow me to save this record back over the original record in the table (in sheet 1).

I am trying to combine two worksheets into one worksheet. In the first worksheet I have countries in the first column. In the second column, I have the statistics for how many people belong to a certain religion. Then in the second worksheet, I have the countries in the first column and birthrate in the second column. How do I combine this information into one table in a third worksheet?

I have a set of related variables that are split over multiple worksheets, and I need to be able to take specific information, duplicate certain values and produce an output sheet for use in a separate piece of software.
The variables are:
Position Number (Sheet 1)
Position Title (Sheets 1 and 2)
Position Requirement (Sheet 2)
Requirement Importance (Sheet 2)
The output sheet requires a list of all the requirements for each position number, which means the position number itself needs duplicating (in new rows) X number of times, where X is the number of requirements assigned. The appropriate requirements are then to be pasted in next to each position number (and the requirements can be found by comparing position number to title, and from title to requirements).
Normally, I’d be able to do this using lookups and so forth, but my problem arises when I have multiple position numbers with the same related title (in the attached example, there are three plumbers with unique position numbers). I can’t figure out how to say to Excel “a plumber has five requirements, and there are three plumbers, so duplicate each position number for each plumber five times, then insert the appropriate qualifications (and their associated importance values) next to the position numbers”.

I have a system that creates text files once a day in a set folder. I want to have a VBA script that will combine all text files in the folder (C:Daily Folder) into one text file (Full.txt) using a simple cut/paste addition, i.e., the lines from the second file are added after the lines from the first, the lines of the third after those, etc. The order does not matter.
I know there are other threads about combining text files and I'm sure I can figure that out if need be, but the problem is the system creates these files by adding .XXX to the name, with XXX being the file order number. So after 4 days, I have four files named K2500.001, K2500.002, K2500.003, and K2500.004. Windows reads these as being four different file types (.001, .002, .003, and .004). If you click on one of the files, Windows prompts you to associate it with an application. I've tried shell commands such as ren *.* *.txt , but the use of a "." in the file name seems to be a problem. Is there a way to change all "." to "-"? I've tried some PowerShell scripts there that haven't worked. I'd like a VBA solution because I don't know my butt from a hole in the ground when it comes to shell programming and so that it can be added to my VBA script for the Full.txt file.
Maybe the files don't need to be renamed at all--like I said, the end goal is the Full.txt file in C:Daily Folder that contains all the lines from the daily text files.

I have one that could be difficult. I have a database with names and corresponding numbers. I am trying to develop a report in which one could choose a name from a list (for example, using validation) and the report pulls out all the corresponding numbers for that name. Not the amount of numbers but the actual list of those that are linked to that name.

I need to use a macro to import data from an unknown # of order files to my master spreadsheet. My master spreadsheet & my order files contain a unique po number that can be used to find matching records. When the macro is ran & a match is found it needs to import the all data that to the master spreadsheet & updated the "processed" column for the record found. Also, all the lines in the unprocessed order files should be matched up. If a record is not matched, a warning needs to be displayed. If the record has already been processed, it just needs to be skipped. Attached is an example master spreadsheet & an example unprocessed orders spreadsheet. If at all possible, please split the unprocessed orders into separate files when testing the final product. The part that I will struggle with the most is looping thru separate files.

I have multiple worksheets spread across multiple Excel files (1 worksheet per file).
All files are stored in the same folder, and all worksheets have the same column headers and structure. I need a block of code that will combine all of these worksheets into a single worksheet in a master Excel file. That is, the code needs to:
1. Open the first Excel file.
2. Copy the first worksheet's contents into the first worksheet of the master file, beginning at the next empty row it finds.
3. Close the Excel file, and move on to the next file.
4. Repeat.
So in the end, ten worksheets residing on ten different Excel files will be combined into a single worksheet in a single file. No breaks are needed between them, instead, the last row of a worksheet would be followed by the first row of the next one immediately below it. No aggregate functions involved, no sums, nothing like that (which is why I don't think I can use the Consolidate function in Excel).

I have database that needs to be updated automatically. Thus far, I have written a macro that will take out and add all necessary data from a file I open, however I would like to write a macro that will find the most recent files and use them to update the database. I would need the macro to 1) Find the folder name that corresponds to the part number in the database, and open that folder, 2) find the most recent file addition to the folder 3) open that file and run the macro that I've already written.

I know how to use an Advanced Filter to sort for Unique Records Only and copy them to a new column, but I am looking for a way to do this automaticly everytime I update my worksheet.
I have a worksheet that populates an e-mail distribution list based on what you imput. Some e-mails are duplicates and I would like to eliminate them automatically before I Concatenate them into a single cell.
I imagine this could be easily done using VBA, but I am not firmiliar with writing any code so it is above my head.

I have two tables "Table A" and "Table B" with records in rows (typically). On one Worksheet I have a report with 10 empty "slots" ("Slots A") waiting records from Table A, and 10 empty slots ("Slots B") waiting Records from Table B. In those slots, fields are arranged one below another.
PROBLEM 1. I need to find a way how to automatically copy chosen records from table A to slots A, and from table B to slots B. There is no rule how many records, and which records are to be copied. Some slots can stay empty.
PROBLEM 2. Slot B has the same number of fields as the Table B, plus one more field, let's call it "extra cell". In the "Extra cell" goes a result of a function, which arguments come form that Slot B, but from ONE Slot A as well. So, I need to "link" every Slot A with one or more "Slot B"s.

I have a time tracker that provides hours that employees clock in and out. It provides me with an excel document with all the employees time every two weeks as needed, however it does not total the hours from all previous spread sheets so that I can have a YTD (year to date) total of the employees hours worked and I need to be able to have this. Currently I am going through each and every spreadsheet and totalling them up. I have over 40 employees and this has become very time consuming to say the least.

I've posted an example workbook that has sheet1 as how the data comes and sheet2 as what I need it to look like (through some kind of automatic process). I really don't have a clue as to how to get this done, and I'm guessing some VBA is going to be required.

I am a Microsoft Excel 2010 user and am trying to create a usage report for a website that I work on. I have been compiling the usage reports into one spreadsheet. The columns I use are Month, Device, Language, Title 1, and Title 2. I can filter each of these rows and it shows me the number of records found. Each row on this spread sheet refers to a time that someone selected something on the site. For example the row may say;
Month (filtered)
Device (Filtered)
Lan (filtered)
[Code].....
How do I automatically populate a table on a separate sheet with the number of records found for a certain combination of filters applied. So if I'm looking at monthly trending I want to know how many times the stress test was started in May, June, or July, but automatically using info from the multiple filters.
What is a formula I can use to compile the filtered data from above.

The background is that I only use macros for a few limited files to save me some time spent on monotonous clicking. Well, yesterday I made three little macros that clear the info in three weekly files and save each with a new date (in preparation for me adding the new info). When I left yesterday, the macros worked as intended. I come in to work this morning, and each of those files now open automatically whenever I open any other file in Excel (just for the first one, nothing happens if I open a second).

I have a lot of .txt files that needed to be converted to .csv file format. Right now I am doing it manually using MS Excel i.e. File > Open. For each file, I need to specify the length of each fields one by one, so it is quite an effort for me.
Is there any way to automate this process using MS Excel or any other existing programs?
