Convert A Multilayered Staggered Data To Flat File.
Jul 22, 2009
Attachment 49027I have an excel data dump of the organizational hierarchy out of ERP system that I need to convert to a flat file pivot table ready format.
The catch is that my lowest level always has to be a department meaning that a dept should be a last column however in the ERP not all the departments are mapped to the lowest level layer i.e. I might have Layer 1, Layer 2 dept or Layer 1 Layer 2 Layer 3 and then dept mapped to 3. Attached is the sample of the file.

VB:
Sub CreateFlat()
Dim wsData As Worksheet
Dim wsNew As Worksheet
[Code].....
In 2006 posting, this code was presented to the Forum. It works perfectly for a one dimension Crosstab. I have 4 dimensions that I need copied to the output.
I have attempted to modify the code, but nothing appears to adjust the pull of more than the first column of dimension data.
see the attached spreadsheet for the Crosstab data and desired output.

I receive a flat text file every week which I would like to grab with excel and extract only the data I need and enter the data into separate cells and loop until I reach the end of the flat file. I got a subroutine written that allows me to open my text file and it will enter all the data however I need to know how to parse only the stuff I need and enter it into the right cells and loop until I reach the end of my text file. Here is what I have so far:
Sub testFSNew()
Dim fs As Object ' scripting.filesystemobject
Dim txtIn As Object ' scripting.textstream
Dim strFile As String 'File Name
Dim strLine As String 'Current line being read.
[code].....
Now so far this opens the text file and dumps all the data into an excel spreadsheet however when I say all I mean it dumps everything into the first cell and does not separate it, the following is an example of the text in the flat file. I will only put in the first 5 rows because their is 5000 rows in the real file.

Ok so the first problem is I don't need the first line it's a header line and if you will notice everyline of the file ends with either a 5 or a 4 but it is information about each employee, so the next line would end in a 5 and that would be the beginning of the next employee.
P.S. I noticed in the preview post that this message board truncated my flat file data, so keep in mind that each line is indeed 1 line ending in either 5 or a 4

I have a coworker who is looking for a way to copy large columnar datasets and paste them into a different worksheet while inserting spaces. In other words, he has say a set of 100 values in column A and wants to paste them into another column in worksheet 2 in blocks of three. So paste values 1-3, then skip 5 rows, then paste values 4-6, skip 5 rows, etc. Without constantly jumping back and forth between worksheets and copy/pasting 3 values at a time.
Is there a function or simple macro for this?

I have this task to solve:
a) import a txt file to excel formatting it as text
b) in column D remove the preceding space
c) find duplicates in column A and delete the entire row with the older one according to Date in column B
d) then convert data in D according to Conversion table integrated into the code and print conversion results into column J.
e) the last step is to print/copy columns A and J so that it looks like the final table in Sheet2.
Here are files attached.
sample data.xls
sample data.txt
conversion table.xls
To summarize, I need to go from a txt file like the one attached and arrive at the table in Sheet2 of sample data.xls file attached.

In the first colum there are sub-columns that i need to reorder into flat format. This would be easy if all sub-columns were from the same size, but this isn't the case.
I think that I need to use a macro that finds the records on the colum, based on each title (A, B, C, D for the illustrative example attached). and then paste them into a new column.

I want macro which export each excel column to new text file. The data in excel file is number. The column has only 5 rows that means each new text file should contain five lines of one column. It looks simple but couldn't manage to do macro for it. I have very big data set in one excel file, and have to be splitted into text files. The file name in new text files can be any kind as long as it can be in some sort of order for each export.

how to word it but if someone understands then please help. I have two excel data files namely Book1.xls & Book2.xls. Both files have different data in it. Both files contain macros. When these macros run the files become **FINALIZED** version.
Originally, I get the above files in my email as txt. attachments. I then move these two txt files to my desktop in a folder called Folder-1. Then I open these files as an Excel and save them.
Basically, I need to know if two txt files are sitting in a folder-1 on my desktop. What can I do or what can I clik that....those two text files get converted into excel automatically, including running that macro I talked about in the above paragrah.
To put it differently, if I have two txt files Book1.txt, Book2.txt in a folder, how can I automatically create an excel **FINALIZED**version which sits right next to their txt version.

I have a spreadsheet with thousands of lines of code. Each row contains a complete code that needs to either be converted/pasted to a new .txt or .xml. Until now, just copying and pasting each line into a .txt file was necessary but there has to be a way to automate this. I would love to know if it's possible to extract each row(technically it is only a single cell per row, so its just a really large single cell) and add it to a .txt or .xml file?

Lotus 123's @DGET (and other database functions) are much more
sophisticated than Excel's counterpart functions. 123's can use
criteria expressions in the function calls. Excel's require criteria
ranges.
In this particular case, there's no need to use DGET at all. There's a
single criterion term, so VLOOKUP is sufficient. If the "Name" column
were the 4th column in Databaseread, then try
=VLOOKUP(GroupNumber,Databaseread,4,0)
Explanation: it appears you're just trying to find a particular group
number. DGET (and @DGET in 123) returns an error if there's more than
one entry. VLOOKUP returns the first matching entry. You're formula
makes it clear you want either the only matching entry or the first
matching entry. However, when there's only one matching entry it's also
the first matching entry, so VLOOKUP alone would have returned the
desired result.
I suspect you have other formulas that are more complicated, but you
believed the formula above would be a reasonable sample to provide. Not
so. If you have more complicated D-function calls, show them, not the
simple ones.

Converting excel files into fully functional standalone and interactive web applications/dashboards? I have only worked with spreadhseetconverter before it converts excel files into interactive calculators but lacks the features which are available in the standard dashboards like gauges and widgets and the rest because it only converts the standard excel charts. I wonder if you have encountered a product which can converts excel files into fully functional interactive dashboards?

I am finishing up a program using excel that does a lot of nice things, and seems to be working. I want it to be used by anyone, even if they do not have Excel. I want it to be *my* program completely, w/o Excel being a part of it anymore. Is there a way to compile an excel file and turn it into an EXE file so there is no need for an excel program to run it?

Someone sent me a pdf file. It contains a list of items but the problem is I need to be able to copy and paste each item individually. I tried doing a google search to find a way to convert the PDF to a word doc but did not have any luck. So I think my only other alternative is to convert it to an excel (XLS) file.
Does anyone know of a way to do this so that I can successfully copy and paste words from the document individually and not just wind up with an excel file with a picture of the PDF file in it?

I have the following code (borrowed) which converts the current .xls worksheet to a tab-delimited .txt file. The problem is that i need to add a PIPE to the end of each row/record as well, so that the records would look something like this:
A|123|
B|456|
currently there is no PIPE following the last character (3 or 6) and i am getting this:
A|123
B|456
I was hoping there would be a way to revise the VBA to add a PIPE at the end of each row/record.
Here's the code:

I have a notepad file that contains data. We need to convert the notepad file into excel and then segregate the data after conversion. Segregation point would be the point where in we can find keyword “Summary”. We need to create a macro that finds the occurrence of summary keyword. Then from the beginning till that summary point cut the entire data and paste in other worksheet. Name the worksheet as “Receivables” or “Payables” or “Fee Payable” depending what type of data that summary contains.
After creating different worksheets we need to format the worksheet in specific format.
For example: I have attached the “Recon1” XL file attached. Under Recon1 – “RECEIVABLES 1” contains the as is data converted from notepad. Later we need to modify the same data using macro as specified in “RECEIVABLES 2” and then as per the format available in “RECEIVABLES 3”.

I am having a challenge at work. We have a client that emailed us an PDF file with addresses. There are over 200 pages and each page has 30 addresses (3 coloumns and 10 rows). When I try to copy and paste the addresses into excel, the addresses are all next to eachother and are pasted into excel as you would see an address on an envelope. But I need the parts of each address in a seperate column.
For example
column 1: name of company;
column 2: name of recipient;
column 3: address,
column 4: city;
column 5: state;
column 6: zip
