Copy A Column To File
May 30, 2007I have a excel workbook with 4 sheets and I want to copy a whole column in a sheet to a binary file and I want to append the file with the same columns in the remaining sheets.

View 8 RepliesI had copied the file with a new name and changed the target column to 14 (Column N) and it did not work. I went back to the original file with column 10 and it does not work either.

I want to copy the extension of each file to a new column (File Type). How might I go about this?
I'm working on the following
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"D:CommondataIBMmainBRANCHBURG-PRODUCTS-BOM-ALUMINUM-UPDATE-" & Ucase(Format(DateAdd("y", 0, Date)), "YYYY-MM-DD")&".XLS"
ChDir "D:CommondataIBMmain"

FileFormat:=xlNormal, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
ActiveWindow.Close

What I'm trying too do is open a file, make an exact copy and save it under a new file name.
My problem is in the date formula the day is not always the same. In the sample case it's 03 at other times the day will change.
is there a way too get this too work irregardles of what the day might be?
This is a sample of the data with which I am working. I know that a macro can do what I need, but I am only versed in Excel formulas and not that much programming. I need to be able to first sort the data by Column C ("Element Type"), then by Columns E, F, G ("Year", "Month", "Day"). Then, I need to be able to copy all rows that have the same "Element Type" and "Year" to a new file, using the same header from the original spreadsheet on each new spreadsheet - doing this multiple times until the end of the file is reached.
Ideally, the new files would have a strict naming convention: XXXXXX-ZZZZ (YYYY).xls, where the X's are the value of the "COOP Station ID" in Column A, the Z's are the "Element Type" from Column C, and the Y's are the "Year" from Column E. If this theoretical macro were run with the Sample Data file I provided, it should result in the creation of five new workbooks. Is there a way to write a macro to do this, or at least something similar
I have csv files auto generated (with date stamp in name) and saved in a specific folder everyday. I need to find a macro that will copy the row(s) every day and add to the next empty row in the master excel file. Some days the csv file may have a single row of data and on some other days it may have multiple rows of data to copy and paste.

In other words, i want cell A2 from each of the three different worksheet i have under different files. And have those data automatically update a master excel or access file whichever might be easier.
View 4 Replies View RelatedBelow is the current code I have for File Copy before the workbook closes. This file will be distributed all over and obviously will not have the same old path and new path locations as I have in my code also will not have the same file name. Is there anyway to still perform the file copy without knowing the old path and file name and possibly have message box pop up to ask the copy to location and use that in the new path string?
Sub Macro1()
Dim fs As Object
Dim oldPath As String, newPath As String
oldPath = "I:EXLDATAMC Daily" '<---Where the file is currently located
newPath = "H:South RegionOrlando Mail Services2008DI" 'Since the super shared drive is super slow we will just copy and replace this file each time before we close and of course after we save
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
fs.CopyFile oldPath & "" & "OrlandoMail.xls", newPath & "" & "OrlandoMail.xls"
Set fs = Nothing
End Sub
I already have code that I believe is supposed to do what I'm trying to accomplish. However, it doesn't fully work. The Macro is below:
VB:
Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:Documents and Settingsplp138DesktopExample 1.xls"
On Error Resume Next
With Workbooks("Example 2.xls")[code]....
Basically, what I'm trying to accomplish is to have a certain range from one file copied, and pasted in the next available (empty) row of another file. While debugging I see that everything is working except for the actual pasting.
I just found a code to copy file path and file contents. However it is copying folder path and folder contents.here is my requirement.I will specify a path, macro has to copy that file name in a particular cell, then it has to copy all its contents.
ex:
file name 1 has 3 sub files in it, file name 2 has 2 sub files in it--
column AColumn B
file name1file contents
file name1file contents
file name1file contents
file name2file contents
file name2file contents
And also i have extend this macro to write a index function. i will tell u about this. but first i need above thing I researched but I didn't find.
I need file name in a column then i need file contents in b column.
if a file has 10 file contents in a file then that file name should come 10 times in a column, and in b column all its contents.
Is it possible w/ some vba code to copy the names of files, either from a search or a specific directory to an Excel Worksheet?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIs there an easy way to automatically copy data from 1 Excel spreadsheet to another when the data is slightly out of order? Currently an admin copies and pastes from file 1 to file 2 manually. There are approximately 800 names to copy. It would be ideal to type a command or press a key and have file 2 updated automatically. Is there a feasible way to accomplish this without spending a lot of money or time?
file 1 file 2
john 100 john 100
june 200 lance 50
marie 150 june 75
stan 100 marie 125
phone 50 stan 200
hold 25
In the example above, if lance doesn't appear in file 1 his amount doesn't get copied and his 50 remains the same. The amounts do not get added, just pasted over from file 1 to file 2 with the days sales results. Only the names on file 2 get pasted over. Phone and hold amounts in file 1 are ignored.
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.
View 2 Replies View RelatedGot a slight problem; I am making a "worker-plan", where you should be able to write a name on one file and have it updated (removed) from the equivalent columns on another file automatically. Here's an example with two separate projects:
Project 1 before and after changes:
Attachment 257366
Attachment 257367
Project 2 before and after changes:
Attachment 257368
Attachment 257369
You can see here how I intended it to work. When one worker is moved from Project 1 to Project 2, that worker should also be removed from those weeks in Project 1. The previous worker from Project 2 should also be removed from those weeks (in Project 2).
Are there any formulas that can make this work automatically? All week numbers will belong to the same columns in all files.
Edit: There are 30 files that should be syncronized, not just two.. I could also gather all files into one file with sheets, instead of having seperate files.
I need the macro to look at cells B9:B84 on the Sheet1 tab of the Cost Template. If it finds an x I need it to copy the 3 cells to the right of the x and paste them in a template. For example if it sees an x in cell B9 it would copy cells C9, D9 and E9, open the Purchase Order to the Detail tab, then paste it to cells B3, C3 and D3. It would continue looking for an x down to B84. So if it found 5 cells with x, it would give me 5 instances of the Purchase Order with 3 cells pasted into each.
I've attached my Cost Template and the Purchase Order it needs to copy to. In the Cost Template is a macro called Create_PO. This is what I was trying to alter to make this happen. I can't seem to get it right! FYI in case it matters, I had to change the Cost Template from .xltm to .xlsm in order to upload it on this site.
I want to copy and paste from one sheet to another based on column a using a macro copy button.
E.g. if column a value = apple then copy that row into the apple sheet.
I have a cell with seven conditional formatting formula rules that I now want to copy to the rest of the column. I can copy/paste special/formats one cell at a time but if I try to to this with a group of cells, (or try using the format painter), it treats the formula references as absolute, even though they aren't shown as absolute in the rules manager. Am I missing something? Using 2007.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an existing spreadsheet with a column of strings (actually VIN numbers). These numbers correllate to a bunch of text files, that can exist in one of three folders (UsernameDesktop1, 2, or 3) on my desktop. What I need the macro to do is:
1) get the filename from A2 (A1 is a heading row)
2) Find the appropriate text file in one of the three folders
3) Put the folder name into I2
4) Scan the text file for some strings, and copy some data that follows those strings into J2:O2 (I can handle programming this)
5) Close the text file
6) repeat above for the remainder of filenames (about 1800 files)
I am trying to get excel to search a workbook/(or worksheet if easier) for a matching unique value and fill in its associated data. My first workbook has the SKU (A) filled in but not the UPC (B). My second workbook has both the SKU (A) and the matching UPC (C) filled in.
I need to take both workbooks/(worksheets), compare the SKUs, and if a matching SKU is found, extract the UPC from Workbook 2 and fill in the UPC field in Workbook 1, and if no UPC is present in Workbook 2, then it leaves the cell in Workbook 1 blank.
I have a spreadsheet which is updated daily. Row A of the sheet has the date in it, and every day a new column is created for the that set of data. I have the below code which works at the moment:
[Code] .....
I want to use this same code on another spreadsheet to do the same process (I need to copy and paste 4 columns (A,B,C + D, into E, F, G & H, then tomorrow it will copy E, F, G & H into I, J, K &L etc etc)). The problem I'm having is that A1:C1 is a merged cell, then D isn't (used as a border to separate). So when it is copied I need to select the merged cell columns and column D (i.e. A:C & D on day 1) and paste it into E:H with E1:G1 merged.
If you open the attached file you'll notice that once clients are entered into the name field of the master worksheet that a new worksheet is created with their name based off a master template. What I need now is a way to create a "on-demand" "click" macro that will allow the user to select a month (Jan-Dec) based on my master tab and autocreate a summary worksheet named that month with each client listed on the Team Roster worksheet in the next available column of the worksheet that was just created.
macro generate a prompt to list the months to allow updates frequently.. so if the same month was run twice it would overwrite the previous.. the woman we're doing this for isn't very excel literate...
NOTE: As you enter names on the Team Roaster sheet it will autocreate tabs.. test file has MrExcel as the worksheet, if deleted the sheet will delete automatically.

I need to find a way to copy the category below an empty row from column A and paste it in the blank row in column B . If possible to bolden the text but I could probably work that bit out myself. I'm new to this but have used VBA before to run macros.
I have been working with a few people on here to setup a macro to copy text from a column of cells to another column and then print this in to a text document but it seams to have got stuck in a loop ....
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write a program for work. One sheet (whereiseverything.xls) will have a list of parts column E and where it is in the process column (k). Column E of this sheet will have multiple part numbers. (Sometimes duplicated.) I would like to figure out how to write a code to Auto filter (whereiseverything.xls) sheet and copy only one P/N from (whereiseverything.xls) column E onto another Workbook Worksheet (Commit status.xls) column. After that the sheet must copy all of the locations of that P/N from whereiseverything.xls column K into and under the P/N of the Commitstatus.xls.
It will continue to autofilter and copy from where is everything, the "one" p/n and all of its locations into another empty column of Commitstatus.xls until it no longer has part numbers to autofilter on whereiseverything. I am extremely green on VBA programming but here is my first attempt.
Windows("Where is everything commits .xls").Activate
Windows("whereiseverything[1].xxx").Activate
Columns("D:D").Select
Selection.AutoFilter
Windows("Where is everything commits .xls").Activate
Windows("whereiseverything[1].xxx").Activate
Selection.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="7516113-905" \<--this Is one p/n
Columns("J:J").Select

I have two different Excel reports and the data needs to be copied from each column on one spreadsheet and pasted to the bottom of the equivalent column on the other spreadsheet.
So, is it possible to get a macro that will copy the data from one column then paste it to the next free cell in the column on the other spreadsheet.
If I could get some code to do one column then this should be enough to get me started and I could apply this to the other columns I need to copy.
I have a worksheet on which the data is already grouped. At the top of each group is a row that contains only the group name. Since the rest of that row is blank, I want to use a blank cell on that row as a reference, then copy the group name to a newly created column, then fill that column down to the next group.
The goal is to create a column that contains the group name, rather than just having the group name as a " header" at the top of each group.
after i open the excle file (any file). i need a macro to copy excel filename to A1 cell.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to automate a process that I do manually today. I have a specific folder that contains 4 .csv files. We will call them:
sheet1.csv
sheet2.csv
sheet3.csv
sheet4.csv
They are the only format that ARS Remedy can export in. I wish to copy the contents of these four .csv files to unique tabs in an Excel workbook. The name of each tab should match the name of the .csv file that provided the data. For exmple sheet1 would contain all the data from sheet1.csv and so on... I'm just learning the ropes to VBA and I am running out of time to play around with this.
Is it possible to press a button in "abc.xls" and have excel ask me which .xls to look in and which rows from that sheet that should be copied and pasted at the bottom of "abc.xls"
Rows to copy would be copied entirely and identified by physical review not by excel looking for a specific value in the row.
