Check If File Exist
Nov 7, 2008
It checks to see if DataImport2, 3 and 4 exist and then executes code.
Currently DataImport4 does not exist so it should not execute anycode but for some reason the code is still trying to execute it and select Sheets("DataImport4").Select

My problem is that I want to loop through a directory that contains csv files. The directory is dynamic so everytime could be a different number of files inside. I want the loop to go through each file and check if that file exists. If it doesn't to print a message that this specific files doesn't exist. Until now I got the following code:
[Code] .........
I guess I should somehow place the counter j inside the Dir path in order to check if everytime time the file[j] exists?

I have two workbooks open, the first is a summary, the second has new data that needs transferring into the summary. Before transferring the data I need to check that 10 specific sheets exist in the file with the new data.
I have found some code that checks for one sheet name, but really need to check for 10 specific names, if any are missing then I need a message to appear, listing the missing ones and stopping the macro from proceeding,
Dim mySheetName As String, mySheetNameTest As String
ActiveWindow.ActivateNext
mySheetName = "Data"
On Error Resume Next
mySheetNameTest = Worksheets(mySheetName).Name
If Err.Number = 0 Then
[code].....

I wrote a macro that selects 3 charts existing in a sheet and sets the axes to auto scale option. The charts are labeled Chart 2, Chart 6 and Chart 7 by default, the macro selects each of then and then sets the auto scale option.
Is it possible to use 'If then' statement to check if the chart object exists ? In case they do exist then macro works on them but if not then it goes to the next statement.
Or is there any other way to check if objects exists or not, because sometimes the macro is used for old files (template) and the chart objects there have different numbers and not 2, 6 and 7. So to use macro for both templates( new and old) its better to check first. This way the macro becomes more flexible.

I would like to check/search if (FileName As String) is still exists in its directory.
--Why as string: because I have a hidden kollom where the links to the files are in txt format.--
I can't write VBA But maybe I can sketch it?

finding the proper code (which will exist in a larger macros) to check to see if specific worksheets exist. Have looked at functions, Cases, On Error checks and nothing seems to do the job I need it too. Here's what I'm loooking at doing...
Background: Main job of macros is to open a source file and systematically copy and paste data from several specific sheets (8 out of 15) into 'like' sheets in a destination file. Destination file is where the macros is run from.
Before starting any copying or pasting I want to make sure the source file has all the correct worksheets. I've run into cases where users have either deleted or renamed worksheets and as a result my consolidation macros falls down. So the order of operations at the beginning of my macros would be...
- Open source file
- Check to make sure worksheets with proper names exist
- If they do exist, continue with macros
- If even one worksheet can't be found (either deleted, or renamed), then prompt user to check the source file and then stop the program.

I need to allow users to add up to seven new worksheets as required and the new sheets must be named Image1, Image2, etc. I do not want to add seven worksheets at once, only one at a time as the need arises and no new ws can be allowed after Image7 ws is added.
I have a macro to test for the existence of ws Image1, but need help on further development to add and test for the extence of the remaining sheets.
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim bTest As Boolean
For Each ws In Worksheets
If ws.Name = "Image1" Then
bTest = True
Exit For
End If
Next ws
If bTest = True Then
'Need some code here, not sure what I need

Using VBA, I am running code that filters the data in my column "Account" on my main sheet, creates a new sheet for each account in that column then copies the filtered data to the new sheet. There will always be the same list of Accounts with the exception that there might not be data for one or more.
In that case, I still need it to create a new sheet with the account name but just have some text stating "no data available for his account".
I can find code to search if a specific sheet name exists but, in my case, I don't know which one won't have data at run time.
I was hoping I could put a static list of the expected sheet names into an array and loop through that list and create the sheet for any that it can't find.
My list: FTL, DTB, CAR, BLD, RSG, STS

I have a function that works well for checking if a specified file exist within a specified path. I realized I do not know how to just check if the folder exist!
Example: I want to see if the following folder exist with boolean response...

I have 400 source files containing (among others) 8 sheets with daily results: "Fri 23", "Mon 26", "Tue 27", "Wed 28", "Thu 29", "Fri 30", "Sat 31 (if applicable)", "Mon 2".
Each sheet contains also:
State - D1
Role - D2
Staff ID - D3
Date - D4
Activity group name in column A (starting from row 8)
Activity type in column B (merged with C and D) (starting from row 8)
Activity time in columns E:GV (starting from row 8). Usually, there is none or only one value in whole range (e.g. E8:GV8). But sometimes there are two values.
Customer ID in row 6 (value appears only if time was reported in E:GV range)
CC Number in row 7 (value appears only if time was reported in E:GV range)
It's all about transferring values from all daily sheets in all files (.xls) sitting in folder C:WADFinal to one simple table (WAD_Consolidation_file.xls, sheet "Consolidated") consisted of 9 columns: Staff ID, Role, State, Date, Activity Group, Activity Type, Minutes, Customer ID, CC Number.
Additional note if two values exist in the same row they should be copied as two separate entries to consolidation file.

I get the following error:
"Run-time error '1004': "cmc4906.xls" File cannot be found.
Check the spelling of the file name and verify that the file
location is correct."
I am not trying to open a xls file. The path is clear and there are no file names with extensions in the path name (C:Weekly). I'm unclear of why the code thinks its looking for file cmc4906.xls and a xls file at that.
Sub Import()
Dim inputfile As Variant
Dim path As Variant
path = ("C:Weeklys")
inputfile = Dir("C:Weeklys")
Do While inputfile <> ""
Workbooks.OpenText Filename:=inputfile, Origin:=437, StartRow _

In the code below, I am trying to add code that will verify that the file to be opened is actually there. If it's not, I want a message box to tell the user that the file is missing or not there. My efforts have XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX above and below my inserted code. Sorry, but I'm lost and need a method of advising the user via a message.

i have a spreadsheet with the following worksheets:
"Data Entry" (sheet 1)
"Menu" (sheet 2)
"Username" (sheet 3)
In username the range a2:b5 contains the following:
a2= John b2=Write
a3=Scott b3=Readonly
where John or Scott are usernames in Environ("Username")
Is it possible to write a macro that does the following:
1. When the file is opened it looks at the network username and checks again the Username range in sheet3, if it is Write then the user can change cells in Data Entry and save the workbook, if Readonly then they can only view and not save, and if not there at all, then the worksheet closes.
2. When the file is opened write a log in a hidden sheet callled "Log" of the time opened and the username
3. Is it possible to do the same but making a copy of all cells changed ??

I have a form in Access with a button that opens an Excel file. I think I've seen vba code to tell if a specific Excel file is open already. What I'm looking for is a way to tell if an Excel file is already open when you don't know the filename of the Excel file. Is that possible? Or at the very least is there a way to be able to tell if Excel is already open?

I have an application that requires users to download a file from a location that is then imported at their execution into the application. I've done my best to counsel users to download the file to their desktop (for ease of locating) and to stick with a standard filename so that there are no errors. Some of these people just don't take direction well, will save the file wherever, or save the name inappropratly, or worse, open up multiple copies of the same file corrupting the name: ie: FileName.xls, FileName.xls(1), FileName1.
