Automatically Save And Copy Values Daily With A Date Stamp
Dec 31, 2009
I have an excel file that I use to track all my financial investments. The file is already set up with a query to retrieve stock prices when I refresh the document.
I would like to be able to open up the document, and store the closing price of the stock(s) with a date in the next column over. With this information I can graph weekly, monthly annually, or any time period I want.
I have been searching for a couple of hours now, and I could not find anything similar to this. I would think this is a pretty common idea for many people tracking their investments with Excel, so if it has been covered perhaps someone can point me in the right direction.
I don't have any programming experience in excel so as detailed of an explanation as possible
Found this macro in a differant thread for a date stamp in A1. I changed it to C38. Also I have it in the workbook module. It is supposed to update the date stamp on save. I think if the data has been changed or not.
I work in a sales team, and am currently planning the new year of sales spreadsheets (tracking prospects and orders) These spreadsheets are linked in both directions to the Sales Director's summary spreadsheet (so that she can set the targets, and also provide a summary to the MD). She has asked me whether it is possible to put a formula in that gives the date each line (1 line = 1 prospect) was updated (so that she can see whether information in the line is current / a week old / a month old etc)
Effectively, what I need is in column A a formula which references columns B-Q and if any of those change, puts in the date of change. Is this possible, or am I going to have to ask the sales guys to do it manually? I have tried to use the =Now() function, but, because the spreadsheets are linked, and auto-update on opening, every time the spreadsheet is opened, each line goes to today's date.
The previous threads that I looked at suggested either: volatile time stamp in shared workbook
or
That is bad design, Enter =NOW() to a single name cell named cell and use date =MyD-T in ALL cells needing the Date & Time. Where MyD-T is the named cell. I would advise STRONGLY against using Manual Calculation as it's NOT good spreadsheet design and a mistake waiting to happen.
i need to put a date stamp when a change is made in b3:b31 into e3:e31 for each row also i need to put a date stamp into g3:g31 when a change is made in F3:f31 i try to use 1 "worksheet-change" and it is fine once i use 2 i get Ambiguous Name Detected errors
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range) With Target If .Count > 1 Then Exit Sub If Not Intersect(Range("b3:b31"), .Cells) Is Nothing Then Application.EnableEvents = False If IsEmpty(.Value) Then .Offset(0, 3).ClearContents Else With .Offset(0, 3) ............
I have an excel workbook that needs to be updated daily (new figures replace old ones at the moment), Want I want to be able to do I after filling in the cells, through that workbook be able to create a new identicle excel file for that day, with the name of the file being the date for that day, so basically at the end of every day a new file is created in a sought of archive. I understand I can just "Save As" every day, but the person that I am doing this for is .... well not the most competent of people.
How can I add a date stamp that will populate a field when text is entered into another cell but will not change every time I re-open the sheet. I have been using =if(B4="",NOW()) which changes each time though and as soon as text is entered it disappears. I want to capture the actual date that someone enters text into a cell and save that date in another cell???
I'm trying to develop a simple time / acitivity capture sheet for a time and motions study. I have a sheet called "Front" with a project number in C2, an activity drop down in C4 and a comments section in C6.
I need to paste these into sheet "Database" into the first blank cell in B:B for C2, C:C for C4 then stamp the date in the same row in D:D and the time in E:E.
I want to write a piece of code that will automatically do a SaveAs on the workbook I'm using, say every hour, and add the current system date and time to the filename every time.
I'm trying to create a sub that will save my worksheet to a tab delimited text file anytime there is a change in the worsheet data (all cells are linked to cells in other workbooks). I've figured out the command to save the file
I have a spreadsheet that from a button I want to run a macro that will input todays date, the value in cell A1 as the filename into a default dialog box that is at a default file path. I have been trying to do this for several hours and can not completely get it done.
If a1,a21,a41 have a value greater than 0, I wish to stamp cell b1,b21,b41 and so on with todays date, but without the stamped value changing/advancing tomorrow. At the moment cells b1,b21,b41 are copied down as follows. =if(a1>0,TODAY(),"") This works fine, but the date stamp of course changes tomorrow. I can not apply code to the whole b column as cells b2:b20, b22:40 etc have other non-date format data to which the code does not need to apply - the todays date value cell occurs every 20 cells.
i need to copy from one workbook to another at present i have formulars in columns a b c d e g in f and h the is data that could go to f and h100 these are not formulars
i need to be able to copy the data from a1 to the last cell with data in it in column A to the same row in column h
I need excel 2010 to automatically save at 09:30 and 19:45 every day monday-friday. Also need the file name saved to reflect the time and date it was saved - if possible.
My PC locks after 10 minutes of inactivity - unfortunately this has to happen because of where my PC is situated.
I have a report send to me daily. And I want to have a macro to save this report in the daily folder, such as “c:
eports8052008”, so tomorrow 's folder would be “c:eports8062008”.
All the daily folders already exist. Just need to change the file path. I tried some codes including sPath and format(now(), “mmddyyyy”), get error message.
In cell b5 I have =today() which automatically updates the date on a daily basis. What I would like to happen is for each day there is a new line is automatically inserted with the date so:
Sat26/04/2008gone off sickFri25/04/2008Thu24/04/2008Wed23/04/2008Tue22/04/2008Mon21/04/2008Sun20/04/2008Sat19/04/2008Fri18/04/2008days holidayThu17/04/2008Wed16/04/2008Tue15/04/2008
I would also like any information on each of the line to move down when the new line is inserted. I am not really that good with macros or VBA but feel that is the only option to solving this problem. Also would everything still update even if the file wasn't opened for lets say the weekend. So it is constantly rolling.
I have a report which I have written a macro to reformat, I then want to copy the sheet (Remake) containing the report into a new workbook as the only sheet in the new workbook. I want the sheet name to be changed from "Remake" to "Duty to Consider" and I want the new workbook to save itself automatically as "Duty to Consider - Month/Year" - in this case it would be "Duty to Consider - August 2008".
I think that a Pop Up box which lets me input the Month and Year of the report I am working on would be useful in naming the new workbook, if this box popped up when I click the button which runs my Macro that'd be great. Here is the code I am using to reformat my report. This works fine I just need the changes I mentioned. Application. ScreenUpdating = False 'this will turn on screen updating, making the macro run faster

One of my job responsibility the following up our store stock, usually we consume constant daily value form our stock, as example we used daily 200 mt of corn, 150 mt do soya bean meal and so on, I would like to creat excel sheet to deduct this value from the previous column daily automatically.
I need to save an excel workbook when a "backup" button is pressed to a folder named "Backups". I want the name to be the "date" (09/07/2013) only and I want it to automatically overwrite anything previously saved for that day.
Code: Sub Select_All_Sheets_And_Export() Dim wsWorksheet As Worksheet, wbNew As Workbook
Worksheets.Select Cells.Select Selection.Copy

I have come up with the above code to select all sheets in my workbook and convert to values and then split and save each worksheet as its worksheet name in the same directory.
I have a multi-worksheet spreadsheet in excel 2003. I want to produce a macro that will just save a copy of the front worksheet values only. That is I don't want to save any formulas or any of the hidden worksheets, just the front page report, plus it's formatting/layout.
I need to automatically copy cell IR18 value to cell JT18. I've been searching the forum for some code and I came up with something that only partially works for me:
I have an excel file which I use when I book keep journals in work. Each time I come across a new piece of bookkeeping I add to the file, name the sheet and index it. (I've attached a loose example for illustration) so the bookkeeping template.xls gets bigger every day.
Currently, when I book keep on a particular day, I open the template.xls workbook;
draft my journals;
and then manually copy the worksheets I have completed during the day from the template.xls workbook and paste the sheets into a new book and save the days bookkeeping as the current date.
With the file I have attached can someone show me how to write a macro and apply it to each of the buttons on the various work sheet tabs (each button will run the same macro).
Upon clicking a button, I would like the macro to;
Copy the active sheet into a new book and save the file as the current date.
Each subsequent click of a button the macro will check if the .xls file exists for the current date, if it does, then it will just copy the active worksheet to the file that has already been created.
In the new file which is saved as the current date, I need to remove the macro button and the hyperlink that reads back to index.
I have had some helpful macro's provided from another forum, however, the other forum does not appear to enable users to upload files, so I can't quite convey what it is I am trying to achieve.
I have a sheet that users fill out and there is a macro on that sheet to copy the info to another workbook, save and close.
for some reason, the date, which originates from a cell with the value "=Today()", and when pasted in to the new book, it is pasted values.
the issue is, every so often, the date will say 09/26/10 and continue to do so for quite a few entries.
i have tried almost everything. I checked the dates on the computers, and all are fine. i even went through it step by step, and when the data pasted it, it was 09/26/10.
I'm using Excel 2010. I need to populate a daily calendar with the number of nights spent, extracted from the Date of Arrival and Date of Departure of individuals.
I have a workbook with 8 tabs and one master tab. The 8 tabs are where the user enters information and the master sheet contains all employees from the 8 tabs. All tabs, including the master, have the same columns in the same order. How can I automatically have the information populate to the master tab as information is changed on the tab groups? I had a vlookup on the master sheet going through all of the sheets however it slowed my report down tremendously and caused too much lag.
