Code To Lookup A Cell Value On The Internet
Sep 9, 2008
I have a long list of movies and I would like a generic code that grabs the content of a cell and places it in the search box on IMDB, and presses enter. I am thinking that I can apply this same code to a bunch of different websites (wikipedia or google for example)
That way, I can put a couple of buttons on a sheet or toolbar and use them to look up a cell value on the web. I don't program in VBA other than some low level copying and modifying code but this seems like it could be reasonably done.

I have a function that is called upon saving a UserForm. One of the Text Labels contains the ID field that I need to use to do a lookup into the first column of a Named Range and then I need to update the cell in the 4th column of that row.
From my research, I'm assuming it will go something like this:
Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(valve, Worksheets("TestWorksheet").Range("TestRange".Cells), 10, False).Value = "TestValue"

I have a large database of equipment on one sheet and an input form on another. For inventory control, when a user scans a number into the input form, the main inventory sheet is updated with the current location. I have it working using functions, but I need to do this in VBA. I am looking to do the following;
User enters 2222 on the input form. The code matches 2222 on the inventory sheet, moves the activecell 10 columns and updates a value in that cell. Cell A2343 is "2222" then Cell K2343 is changed to "WAREHOUSE 4". What is the best way to find the match and then select that cell in VBA?

I'm trying to use an offset from a Named Range as my source cell in a vlookup but get a -1004 Object not defined error. When Debugged the Range.Formula appears to be blank when queried. Using Record a Macro the Reference to a named range worked fine but I could not test for an offset or the use of the range reference. What can I do to use to make this work
Range.Formula="=vlookup(Range(""SomeName"").Offset(1,0),DataRange,2,False)"

I want a function that takes a URL string and then inserts a picture into the cell and fits it into the size of the cell (which I made square). The images are small but over 50 000 so it would be impractical to download them all; thus I want the spreadsheet to insert a specific one, based on my formula.
Tried a macro I found but it only gave the the '1004 Picture class' error.
So the function must be simple to use, maybe: ....

I am trying to loop thru all links on all pages of a website to find pages that have links to PDF files.
Some links are in a cell in a table on the webpage, like this:
Code:
Golvbrunnar - plast
I want my VBA to click that link, but I can't find a way to do this. What I have so far is:
Code:
Set Browser = New InternetExplorer
Browser.navigate "http://core.purus.se/PurusWeb/common/frameset.aspx?Profile=Sweden&NamedPath=Golvbrunnar"
Set Document = Browser.Document
[Code]....

I am using Excel 2007. A few years ago I managed to link a spreadsheet to a particular part of a website. To be specific, I linked a cell to a portion of a table on a website showing the current average price of petrol in the U.K. I also linked a cell to a website which showed the current exchange rate for pounds and dollars. I haven't been able to replicate the procedure.

I want to be able to lookup if anywhere in a cell contains a word from a list of words, and then provides an output.
Column G:
VAT payment
HMRC payment
Pay VAT
I have a table on the side that shows:
Column Y Column Z
VATHMRC
HMRC HMRC
ie. If anything in column G matches one of the words in Column Y, then output the Column Z. I have use a Vlookup that works for the first two, as VAT is the first thing, but dont know how to make it work if the key word is in the middle of the cell.

I have a workbook with 2 different types of sheet - 1 containing source data and the others 'collecting' data from the source sheet, depending on what the sheet is for.
For example, the data source contains different pets, their names, ages and their owners.
The other sheets are on a one-per-owner basis.
What I would like to do is use a LOOKUP / MATCH function to lookup the owner name typed in cell A1 of the output sheet and match it with the corresponding owner name(s) on the source sheet. I would then like it to return with each pet and append the results on the sheet accordingly - like below:
John Smith (in cell A1)
Pet - Name - Age
-------------------
Dog - Rover - 3
Goldfish - Tom - 1
Gerbil - Chewit - 4

I am currently using the formula below to lookup a name and its corresponding code. I type the code into cell A13. The name is fixed at B1. This formula then finds the name (B1) in a table and matches the column header of the code which I type into A13 and returns a value. This allows me to type in different codes and quickly see the value corresponding to the name. I also want to be able to type the coding into A13 and be able to see a listing of all of the names attached to that coding.
VLOOKUP(BETA!B1,MAINTABLE,MATCH(BETA!$A13,MAIN!1:1,0),FALSE)

We get a very detailed Call Data Records(CDR) for all telephone calls made by our employees. CDR typically contains the called number, duration in seconds and cost. What is missing it the city name and country name for the called number.
For e.g. a typical CDR log would be
Called # duration(secs) Cost
442075000000 40 0.02
From looking at this number, the country code is UK - 44 and the city code is 20 which is London.
I have a spreadsheet that contains Country code and city code for all major cities in the world.
Is it possible to create a lookup function, that would take the 'Called #' from the CDR and lookup the data in the CountryCity code spreadsheet and give me the called City and Contry name.

What I want to do is to vlookup site IDs in column A of sheet 2, into Sheet 1. The problem is there are two criteria
1- The code finds the roads names of column B. Sheet1 in column.sheet2
2- Considering that the road names are not unique, then within the same roads checks for column C.sheet1 in column D.sheet2
3- When it find the correct value return column A.sheet2 into column A.sheet1
In the case of the picture assuming we are in cell A4.sheet 1, it would go and look for Abbotts road within range (a2:e9) in sheet2 and find several, then go and look for the next criteria which is value 890 (C4.sheet1) and when in finds it in in D4.sheet2 returns A4.sheet2 into A4.sheet1 and it needs to continue doing that until row 2700.

I've trailed through the search engine on here and I can't find an answer to this:
Can you access lookup tables in Excel from VBA code? I assume you can, but can't seem to find anything on this

I have 3 workbooks "ID numbers, 07 Car,and 08 Car".
I need a VBA code that will use the value in column C in each workbook, look up the value in workbook "ID numbers", column C thru G, and return
values into each workbook:
Workbook ID number Column C add values to Each workbook (Column B)
Workbook ID number Columns D thru E) add values to Each workbook (Columns D thru E)
See 07 Car workbook highlighted in orange, every product below the orange highlight must look like for both workbooks this after the code is ran.

I'm looking to populate a series of sequential codes based on a code prefix.
Sheet 1: Master Code list
Column A = Lookup Value
Column B = Code Prefix
Sheet 2 - Results page
Column A - list of lookup values - sorted in value order - The number of occurances varies for each value
Column B - Results list
I want to populate Column B in the second sheet with a sequential code list for each different value in column A. So for the first value it would have the prefix then proceed numerically (Prefix0001, Prefix0002, Prefix0003...) then for the next value its prefix in sequence (2ndPrefix0001, 2ndPrefix0002, 2ndPrefix003...), etc
I'm wondering if there is a way to do this all in one step or else if there is a way way to number each occurance of the lookup value in the second page, in which case the code can be concatenated easily by a lookup of the code.
I suppose on the back of this there is another query - is there a way to concatenate a number where the format is 000# where the concatenated value will retain the leading zeros? I've been trying and it is stripping them out.
