View 2 Replies View RelatedFunction To Return Last Modified File
Dec 22, 2008I don't really know VBA more than just piecing together other people's work (so please dumb down your responses as much as possible).
So I would like to have a function that displays a filename within a cell. The filename I need to display will start with "cost" and have a date at the end (not always the same number of characters). I need to search a folder for all files that contain that text and return the last modified one.
I found this VBA code that returns the last modified file, but only filters based on the extension (which I would like to keep in the code as well).
File Date Last Modified From Cell Value
Feb 26, 2013I have a workbook that column C has computer names starting from C4 to C83. I need to get the Datelastmodified of a log file that robocopy is writting to the following path. \Server1folder1WorkSheetName\%computername%somefile.log. The Datelastmodified needs to be entered in column K for each computer name in column C. One last thing would also be great is if the file does not exist it would write a error value.

Vba For Checking Dates
Sep 21, 2009Is there a code in vba, that will return today's date (or the date of the week before, [today-7]) I need a vba code that will check a current cell - let say cell "A1", that contains a date( for exmpel: 12/7/09), and compare this date to the date last week, if the cell (A1)contains a date that is older then last week , then fill in A2 with "False", if the date in A1 is between the date of today and a week ago then fill A2 with "True". (For the exmple that I gave of course in A2 the value will be "False")

Checking Dates Between Range
Jun 18, 2012In our program it is essential that only data is entered for the current week.
I need code that if a date is entered into "cell C1",that it will evaluate this value and compare and assure that it is between the dates in Range D1:E1 (upper and lower values)
If it is between these two dates, nothing happens and you can proceed to enter data.
If it is not message -Invalid date entered. Proceed? If "Yes" nothing happens and you can proceed to enter data! If "No", then the value in cell C1 is set to nothing and allows you to enter the correct date.
I need to be allowed to enter an incorrect date at times,to review and check previous entries, 99% of the time it must be between the start and stop date.

Jun 1, 2014I have a SUMIFS formula that I am having trouble with. I am trying to check the following:
=SUMIFS(NFCU!$G$5:$G$298,NFCU!$E$5:$E$298,NFCU!$H$2,NFCU!$A$5:$A$298,"<e1")
The range NFCU!$A$5:$A$300 is a column of dates. The evaluation of "<e1" does not seem to evaluate. However, when I change "<e1" to a date value of 41760 it works. How can I reference a field rather than the raw value?

Checking File From FTP Site
Mar 15, 2012I have tried to search these forms for some information on how to have VBA code check a file saved in an FTP site. I am hoping to use this file to contain version information where the workbook code will compare the version of the workbook to the version log saved in a text file on an FTP server. If they are different, I would like a pop up window to appear that notifies the user that there is a new file available, and perhaps a prompt to save that new file to the user's computer (it does not need to update and replace current workbook).
Is it possible to have VBA check an FTP site for this if I put the username and password in the code?

View 9 Replies View RelatedFile / Workbook Created By Macro Is Making It Heavier?
Jul 4, 2014I am creating 4 Sheets from a Main Sheet by Filtering Data based on different values in a fixed column, then the Filtered Rows are automatically pasted in the respective sheets.
Then these 4 Sheets are creating another file.
The same thing done manually by Grouping the 4 SHeets and then Move Copy into a New workbook also makes the file heavier.
Everything works fine however though the data is not much the file is very heavy, so what do i do to make it of appropriate size ?

Excel 2007 :: SharePoint / Checking File Status
Jun 11, 2014I'm working with a file from SharePoint (FileA), "FileA" goes out to Sharepoint and opens "FileB" (if not already open) then copies information from "FileA" to "FileB". However if "FileA" is left open, or someone else has it open I am unable to open "FileA". How in VBA can I check to ensure I don't have it open locally (if so swich and continue), checkout and open in SharePoint (if not already open) or Prompt with options to force checkin, checkout to copy info?
Simple VBA copy I used:
Workbooks.Open FileName:= _
"http://sharepoint.baaa.com/sites/SCDT_DSD/Weekly_Releases/11.%20Combined%20Weekly%20Task%20List/1/Automated_Status_Update.xlsm"
Sheets("1").Select
Range("A1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
VBA Count File Which Modified Date Matches Fixed Date
Jan 9, 2014I've written a Function which will count the number of files in a folder which the modified date equals a fixed date
For example, here, I want the file count which modified date = 01.01.2014
Code:
Function FileCountDate(Path As String, FileType As String) As Long
Dim strTemp As String
Dim lngCount As Long
Application.Volatile
strTemp = Dir(Path & FileType)
Do While strTemp ""
[Code] ......
However I got a #VALUE! error message with this formula:
=FileCountDate("C:Usersjohn.doeDesktopTEST","*")
In the TEST folder there are 4 pdf files so it should return the value of 4.
Non US Date Format For Dates In CSV File
Oct 21, 2007I am using a CSV that has the date in Column A in the format of DD/MM/YYYY. When I open this CSV using a VBA comand the Format of the Cells in this col are then formated as either Date or General. The general format happends when the date cant be turned into US format and when it can then the date is turned US and displayd as such.
SO
14- Sep = 14/09/2007 as General
10- Sep = 09/10/2007 as Date
Im in Australia so the correct format is DD/MM/YYYY. Microsoft has issued a fix for this using Local:=True in the file open comand which is all good and well as it works unless you have office 2000 when it crashes. What would be the best way of fixing this, so that the Dates are all correct or the col is all the same format?
Stop CSV File Converting Numbers To Dates
Jan 14, 2010I'm having a little problem working with some CSV files that are sent to us by an outside party. There is a field for an invoice number. This number should be a string since it sometimes has alpha characters and sometimes has dashes. But the field is not delimited to indicate this, so when opening these files in Excel, Excel will sometimes convert the numbers to dates. Once they are converted to dates, there is no going back.
The way we have gotten around this is to change the csv extension to txt, then open as a txt file and convert that particular column to a text column. This causes a lot of additional work as the file ultimately needs to be converted back to a CSV.
Ideally, the people creating the CSV files should create them so the invoices column is properly delimited. But that doesn't seem to be possible right now.
Is there a way to create a macro that would make the modification while opening the CSV file, before Excel has a chance to modify those fields?
Stop Excel From Changing Numbers To Dates In CSV File?
Jun 6, 2005When opening a .CSV created from a third party software, one of the columns is converted to date format. The numbers are imported in #/# format. and Excel changes most of the numbers to 2-Jan, 3-Jan etc... This would not be that big of an issue if I could simply set it back. Clearing format or changing to text converts it to a 5 digit number.
The only way I have found to get it to work properly thus far is to open a blank sheet and import data and setting the column to text prior to import.
I would like to find a way of opening the CSV file without all the extra steps. Is there a setting that can be turned off?
