View 2 RepliesI have received several hundred "Excel" data file dumps from an unspecified corporate database ( SAP? ). They are nominally spreadsheets, that is they are tables of mixed data that Excel recognizes, as they are exported from the database as such.
I'd like to walk a directory containing these files, and only these files, open each in turn save them as proper Excel files and close them. The end goal is to import these tables into a Access database, but Access doesn't recognize them either. I also need to repair values in one field which is easier to accomplish in Excel.
Unfortunately, opening the file generates an error I've been unable to trap, due to the fact the excel thinks its an HTML file, which it is, and wants me to verify that I do want to open it. Similarly, I receive a message when I try to save the file that requires me to nominate an acceptable Excel file type, which I can do in code.
What is the code to open a URL or local html file with a command button?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a folder containing 40 single sheet excel workbooks and I would like to automate following tasks:
- Open each excel file (need to open the file so as to update it since it gets the data from another workbook through =formulas)
- Copy paste as values
- Save this as excel html in the same folder as original excel files (keeping the original file name)
- Close (original excel file should not be changed ie formulas should remain in place, only the html file will contain values)
- Since there will always be xHtml files with same name need the macro to replace the excisting file
My abilities with excel are limited to functions, no VBA knowledge other than finding ready codes and pasting them in the module.
Since this routine is to be run almost daily the macro should run all files, instead of one by one.
I just hope that I am not asking too much for excel to handle and I hope that explanation is clear.
In the attached file, I have a code to open several files which have the same format, sheet name. The copy and paste the contents to the attached file.
It’s ok to open the first file. But it got problem to open the remaining file. The warning says it can not find the file name even the file exits.
how to open a pdf file (located: "C:myfile.pdf") in macro code?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a read only excel file which I want to interrogate in another report.
I'm writing some code to open the file but I'm not sure how to get past the password/read-only prompt when opening the file.
My code is:
Workbooks.Open Filename:= "C:Sales2006.xls"
I assume it's possible to write some code to get past the prompt. I have checked the help files which do seem to indicate it's possible to specify a read only property but it doesn't say how.
I'm trying to write a macro that will bring up the "File Open" dialog box, and allow the user to navigate to the directory where the file is located. It won't be the same file every time, and the files will likely have different names.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI need a code which will open up a previous days file. I have the code to pick the correct file but I am stuck because the folders are multiple levels down to year then month.
Eg. Folder Name > YYYY > Month
So i need to have a code which can look in to the relevant folder based on the current date and then be able to open the file i need.
I.e. today is 29May so i need the code to open the 2014>May folder.
For 1st day of month I would need it to open last months folder I.e. 01June Open May folder
I have files saved as a code, then a customer name. I'm trying to write some more code to open the file only based on the initial code.
For example the file name is X090000 TEST
This doesn't work;
Open("V:\\\" & oldFileName & "*" _
& ".doc")
I have previously used the following code to successfully pull out IE webpage source code for string manipulation.
Its a crude example to demonstrate the principle:
Public Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)
Public IE As Object
Sub Sample()
Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
IE.Visible = True
[Code] ......
However when I substitute in a Google websites address into the IE.Navigate command, the code runs to the "Source_Code = IE.document ...." line then flags up a Microsoft Visual Basic error. "Run-time error '438': Object doesn't support this property or method"
The webpage that I am trying to access is a confidential company site, so you won't be able to access it yourself, but starts with [URL] ......
The one thing that I have noticed about this website is the Privacy Report icon in the lower right status window (Picture of an eye with a restricted symbol in front). I don't know whether this is the cause of my problem, or purely an incidental observation.
Is there something peculiar with Google sites that means that the source code cannot be extracted in general, or is this an issue specific to my site ? Does the Privacy Report icon have any relevance, and if so how do I switch that off ?

I have wriiten a macro in excel that pops up some photos whenever the respective cell is selected. It is working good except when I save the file in HTML format. Also what is the difference between publishing and saving html file? I am using office 2003 and microsoft web components installed.

View 1 Replies View RelatedSay there is a HTML file at C:DataFile.html
I'd like to use Excel VBA to write this meta tag into that HTML file:
****** http-equiv="refresh" content="600">
That's to make it refresh every 600 seconds.
The most elegant way would be to locate the "head" tag and write it right after it, but the refreshing meta tag seems to work where ever it is, even at the very end of the file after the "/html" tag! So locating the "head" tag is not that important, if it's difficult.
So, how do I use VBA to write lines into a HTML (or any text) file?
I have some code that loops through a bunch of text files, finding any that contain an href, and printing that entire line (if found) into excel. These text files are source code for a website. What I need to do, is within this line being pasted, is grab only a few things from within some tags such as the info between <title>This is the title</title> the tags and print it into a colum, I do not want the entire line, just certain things that are in the line. I have supplied the code that I currently have. I have it so that 'WholeLine' contains the entire line. Can I manipulate that with something like Cells (myR, 3).Value = WholeFile(?).
Sub CheckTextFilesForHREFs()
MsgBox "Press OK to begin report"
Dim WholeLine As String
Dim myPath As String
Dim workfile As String
Dim myR As Long
I would need to get HTML source code from any given page. I know how to open a HTML page from Excel and I can do it with VBA, but how to get for example this page's source code?
I would start with making a sub that takes a string (the address) as an input parameter and finish with saving the source code of that address as an text file like c:code.txt
So something like
Dim webaddress as string
Sub GetSourceCode(webaddress)
'then some code to save the source code
End Sub

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm working on creating a custom HTML report with javascript that I will be using to import in to excel to populate some graphs. Basically everything is working, except if I use javascript to show me a value.
When I use Import Data from Web via excel, everything gets imported except for the javascript part of the html doc.
An example of the html file (stripped down to nothing but 3 peices of data): [URL]
Taking advantage of csv files and importing into websites. Basically I have a html code in a cell which needs to pick out content from different cells in the same row. Is that possible?
<a href="/signup?name=A2&email=B2">Go</a>
So the A2 and B2 would be contents of their respective cells. Tried out a few things but kept getting errors.
I need to check a website daily to see if a link has been updated. If it has been updated, the beginning of the link changes to a different date. Example: today link is www.10212009dave.com and tomorrow link may be www.10222009dave.com. Lets say the link is on www.gugg.com. The link does not change everyday, but I think a good way to see if it has been updated is to search through the source code in the html for that link.
Thus I would put www.10212009dave.com into cell A1 and tell excel to search the source code on www.gugg.com, and if the contents of cell A1 is NOT found, I'd display a message box stating the link has been updated.

I have a function that locates a table on a webpage and pulls the html code into one cell in a worksheet. Basically we can call this one cell a text file.

I would like it to then write back this parsed text file back into excel as a table, say starting in cell A2 on the same worksheet.

For other sites i can use the code below and it works fine, but the site i am using to get the Sweden stats seem to keep the data in some type of a Java app (sorry still somewhat of a newbie) and doesn't work the same as the others
when i veiw the source code just by right clicking the page all the data i want shows up. When i try to use my code it doesn't get the stuff i want.
I have tried both objDoc.body.innerHTML and objDoc.body.outerHTML and i get different results but not the same as right clicking on the page and viewing the source, is there another command that i can use to get it all?
the website is
HTML [url]
Sub Get_Stats()

Set ie = CreateObject("internetexplorer.application")
ie.Navigate strURIpre

If ie.ReadyState = 4 Then

Im trying to use excel as part of an real time display system, what im looking to do is after xx time period import some data (which is fine, I have that bit sorted), then save to as html- (hopefully using excel 07 abilty to repubish data to update the same file with more info).
I have added some Javascript to the html file to auto scroll, and then will be adding a refresh script which should hopefully update the display with any new info genrated from excel...
so far I have found the following code, but could do with a hand to tie it all up!
Code:
Public Sub Watchon()
State = "Mointoring Folder..."
Timerun = Now() + TimeValue("00:10:00")
Application.OnTime Timerun, "DetectNewFiles"
Userform1.Nextupdate.Caption = ">Next Update will be @: (" & Timerun & ")"
With ActiveWorkbook.PublishObjects.Add(xlSourceSheet, _
[code]....
Then within DetectNewFiles Sub, I need to update the html data, I guess I can't reuse the above bit, as it would just overwirte the whole file (and so remove javascripts too).
Code:
Sub DetectNewFiles
'Some code to import text files to excel
With ActiveWorkbook.PublishObjects("Book1_24990")
.Publish (False)
.AutoRepublish = True
End With
Some code to reset next time update of DetectNewFiles
I've a xls file ready to upload to the my server through phpmyadmin and im using csv with load -date to upload it.
But my biggest problem here is how to input html tags in a excel cell, because when uploading it every word is combined without < p > or < br >.
There is on the internet an option to convert word text to html, and when i copy and paste from each cel to the online converter, I get then the < p > and < br > codes.
But I have a lot of cells in Excel.
I have an htm file, and i see the table. But when I go to import, it only brings in a few words -- none of the tables that I clearly see. I noticed that the tables appear to be created using Java. How do I import the table. If I select and copy/paste it works -- but I have 100s of these and I would prefer to figure it out and then program it.
