Can someone help me to get the code to copy an existing workbook, with all the forms and code that exist with it, to a new workbook with the data from the cells, and name the file with a new name?

I have a userform that has a control button that opens another userform that contains a listbox with a range of data. I want to click on an item and press a control button to add it to a textbox on my first userform. I do this via:
View 2 Replies View Relatedi have 15 textboxes in my userform (all with tags).
instead of having 15 seperate sub routines that call on one macro is there a way i can write some code that, on entering any texbox within a form, a specific routine would be called
i tried using the Userform_click sub like so, but with no joy:
i've got an excel workbook called..lets say.. "Database"..it contains spreadsheets with lots of exciting data..and Users view(and occassionally add to) this data through a variety of userforms.
what i'd love to know is whether theres any way to "bind" userforms to a specific workbook?
i.e. can i make it so my userforms "MIGHT" be displayed (might bcos it depends on the users selection)...while "Database is the active worksheet".....but not displayed if it isn't...e.g. if they open another excel workbook..
at the moment my userforms are present in every excel project (while Database is open and the forms are being used), which is clearly bad since they block half the screen....
does anyone possibly know how to have Userforms only show up when a specific workbook is being used?i've been stuck on this for a couple of days now and its driving me crazy.
equally if you don't think its possible, i'd love to know so i can stop wasting my time on this....there is a way around the problem..but it involves putting my "Main Menu" -which opens all my userforms- as part of an excel spreadsheet instead of a userform..and having it userform based just makes it look so much better.
I am basically after a script that can be run from a persons workbook via an Excel Addin, e.g. they click an "Update" button, and the script imports the Forms and Modules from another workbook that i specify.
I do not however want the data held on the spreadsheet to change, just the Modules & Forms in the VBA project.
So I haven't seen this error before. It says "Automation error: the object invoked has disconnected from its clients."
I think I know what's causing it but am not sure how to go about solving the problem.
Barring any inefficiences that the code below contains, can someone please tell me what code I should used to fix this error?
I am looking for some code that dynamically (during processing) changes the height of a userform. What I am trying to do is this: I have ten worksheets but only five are being used. I am looking to have a userform with a checkbox for each of the active sheets labeled. I don't want to have to display a form that is basically ten checkboxes with five enabled and five disabled. I want to show only the five active sheets checkboxes with a userform only large enough for the five. If six are active then a userform displaying six checkboxes and a userform large enough for only the six to be displayed.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to paste some codes to the "ThisWorkbook" section of a file. The codes I am trying to paste will prevent the user from: doing a Save As (to keep them from saving the files anywhere else in the network) and to Disable the Macro (only showing a prompt sheet if they do so they can go back and enable the macros). The file that these codes will go to is sheet and workbook protected, and some cells are protected, and cells that they can edit have data validation formulas. In a post dated Nov 6, 2003 (thread 16750) I found a useful code that lets me paste the codes above to a target file. But when I save and close the file, the Disable macro does not work.
So I tried long method and pasted the codes into the ThisWorkbook section manually. Save and closed manually. and when I opened the file, the Disable and Enable works. Just as a background, I am a beginner with VB and I can't write my own codes yet, but I try to piece them together from forum answers. I need VB to do this because I have 263 individual files to prepare. I used to use AutoPilot, which is a scripting software but it's so prone to bonking out that I would rather do it in VB if possible. These are the codes am trying to paste:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave _
(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
If SaveAsUI = True Then Cancel = True
End Sub
Private Sub Sheet_Activate()
Dim oCtrl As Office.CommandBarControl
For Each oCtrl In Application. CommandBars.FindControls(ID:=21)
oCtrl.Enabled = False
Next oCtrl
For Each oCtrl In Application.CommandBars.FindControls(ID:=19)
oCtrl.Enabled = False
Next oCtrl
Application.CellDragAndDrop = False
End Sub...............
I'm just beginning to work with userforms and have created a couple of forms for workbook navigation. The Menu form is set to appear only on the menu worksheet and the Navbar form is set to show on several database sheets. Both forms are set th hide when the workbook is deactivated.
Private Sub Workbook_Deactivate()
Menufrm.Hide
Navbar.Hide
End Sub
The problem is that when I return to the workbook the forms do not unhide. Using the workbook_activate event causes both forms to show simultaneously. I also have the worksheet_activate event set to show the applicable form.
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
ActiveWindow.DisplayGridlines = False
Navbar.Show
Navbar.Left = Range("B3").Left
Navbar.Top = Range("B3").Top
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Upon returning to this workbook, I only want the appropriate form to show relative to the worksheet that is active. That is, if I was on sheet2 when I switched to another workbook, sheet2 would be active when I return to the workbook and should show the Navbar form. The menu form should show on sheet1, and the navbar form on sheets 2-5. How do I get the correct form to show when I re-activate the workbook?
I've not had much experience with VBA code, other than recording macros and editing them a little. What i would like to do is code a macro to copy the data (text only) of a whole worksheet into a blank worksheet in a different workbook, effectively allowing the user to "upload" the data to a master workbook.
The user will complete data entry into a daily template worksheet containing all formulae to obtain necessary daily data. I would like them to then be able to click a button that runs a macro copying the text data from the daily template to a monthly workbook. I have no problem recording this in a macro and the code for that (no doubt there is a more efficient way) is:
[Code] .....
The monthly workbook will contain 31 sheets (named 1,2,3...31) for the days, and each month will have it's own workbook (named Jan, Feb, Mar...Dec).
The key thing I need is using cells within the daily workbook to determine the month and day used by VBA for the filename and worksheet respectively.
Cell B5 contains the day (eg. 1) and C5 the month (e.g. Jan)
In a workbook with several worksheets i would like (as part of a backup function) make a copy of one of the worksheets.
The code of the complete project is distributed over a module (module1) and several Microsoft excel objects ("thisWorkbook", but also in a number of the worksheets (e.g. in "sheet3 (Risk Management Plan)").
The backup copy of the worksheet (in this example also containing e.g. the Microsoft excel object "sheet6 (Backup of Risk Management Plan)" should be free of any macro code. this to avoid unintended problems by inexperienced users, but also to keep the file size limited.
Probably it would be possible to copy the worksheet without of copying also the code. Or it would be possible to strip the code only from this particular worksheet without influencing any other code, forms, ... . Or, perhaps, there would even a totally different approach.
I use Windows XP pro Sp2, and Excel 2000 Sp3.
I am looking for VBA which will complete my below task.
copy data from active worksheet to closed workbook.Active sheet data should copy below old data of closed workbook.data contain in A to K column of active worksheet.clear copied dataIf I moved both file any folder or drive, path should change automatically. ( something like fpath = current workbook path clworkbook= fpath & closedwbk.xls).
Here is the code I have:
Windows("2.xlsm").Activate
Sheets("Report_P").Select
Sheets("Report_P").Copy After:=Workbooks("New_report.xlsx").Sheets(9)
2.xlsm is open. it contains a sheet called Report_P New_report.xlsx is open and has 9 existing sheets
Every time this tries to execute I get a "Run time error 1004 Copy Method of Worksheet Failed".
What is wrong with this code? I have an identical line in another macro, the only difference is that there are 5 sheets pre-existing, and that works fine.
I am using the following code to copy data from multiple workbooks in a folder to one workbook.
Code:
Sub copy_files()
Dim wkb1, wkb2, wkb3 As Workbook
Dim i, lastrow As Integer

What changes are required in the above code to paste the data in different sheets on one workbook.
I have this macro I recorded and pieced together from info I found on the net. It works the first time you run it but then it dies because the next new workbook is not "book1" what I would prefer is to have it save the new workbook as the value of sheet2 F2 and "Product Bulletin" so it would look like "##### Product Bulletin" but I don't know how to write it.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI want the code to run when we open excel workbook "TEST" and it should open up all the workbooks one by one in the folder J:ABC and copy cells C2 and C4 values in the A and B columns of TEST workbook.
e.g There are 5 workbooks in the folder J:ABC so when the TEST workbook is opened then the code should run and open 1st workbook and copy values in cells C2 and C4 to it and close the workbook.
The code should run as below:
1st workbook:
C2 value will go in Test workbook B1
C4 value will go in Test workbook A1
Close 1st workbook
2nd workbook:
C2 value will go in Test workbook B2
C4 value will go in Test workbook A2
close 2nd workbook.
3rd workbook:
C2 value will go in Test workbook B3
C4 value will go in Test workbook A3
close 3rd workbook.
and so on It will be going to next rows in A and B columns.
My workbook stores data related to items that are all tracked by barcodes. Im using the following code (as part of a larger set of code) to copy data from rows 6 on in column D, E & G to K from one workbook to another. The data in F (Item Names) is found using a formula, by matching the barcode data in the corresponding G cell (on the same row) to another sheet (where the barcodes and Item names are stored). When the data has finished copying over and EnableEvents gets turned back on the F column mostly automatically fills itself in from the formula.
The issue I have however is in certain circumstances there are some items that either dont have a barcode, or the barcode is missing. In this case the user types "none" (not case sensitive), which opens a userform allowing the user to type in an Item name that gets entered into the F cell, overwriting the formula. I need to copy this data over separately to the new workbook. Im looking for code to find these records from row 6 on (either by searching for rows where G equals "none", or rows where F has no formula, and then copy the data in F over to the other workbook to the corresponding row number but offset by the number of records already present in the active workbook (currently being calculated by wbReturnDataLastRow).

I have a workbook ("CaTr") Sheet1 has data ranging ("B2:I41").
There are about 30 cells values (scattered) which needs to be copied in a workbook "CA_Log" in one single next available row .

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy company has files that are already in use. I don't know too many details about how they work, but somehow saving the file will screw it up and my boss has to go back and reset something or other to correct it. Obviously it's connected to some other software somewhere. The code below will block Save and Save-As. BUT how do I get the file to hold onto the code without actually saving the file after the code is added (since the file shouldn't be saved)?

I'm trying to find a way to save a single sheet of an excel workbook and in the same process delete all vba code and shapes from the new single sheet workbook. I was looking around and found this code which does save only the single sheet to a new one sheet workbook but doesn't delete the vba and shape that I have used to assign macros to in the original.
Code:
Sub SaveSheetAsNewBook()
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim InitFileName As String
Dim fileSaveName As String
Dim wshape As Shape
InitFileName = ThisWorkbook.Path & Format(Date, "mm.dd.yy")

The amazing code I saw was from this thread Auto lock cells after data entry when file saved... where the code was made by Jafaar Tribak.
It basically locks cells that have had data inputted into them when the file is saved (with a nice prompt warning of the used cells being locked.
This is Jafaar's file [URL]
And this is my file where I'm trying to make it work in the "Employee data entry" Sheet:
[URL]
And finally this is the file after I tried to copy the code over : [URL]
Trying to make it so that in the employee data entry sheet locks cells after an employee inputs some data into said cells.
I thought that by setting an "inputrange" on the employee data entry sheet the code would track it down automatically but maybe I'm completely wrong. I cant see anything wrong with it (probably because I"m not that good at vba) but I fear I may have left out something really simple!
I seem to disable my other macros when i try to insert this code in (I have a macro that when you click on a cell a calendar pops up so you can click on a day from the calendar rather than typing out the date)
How is code or functions kept unique to a workbook? for instance i create a few toolbars that are relevant to "work book 1", however when i open another workbook "2" the toolbars do not function properly or are removed by the opening/closing of the work book, similarly other macros seem to struggle with more than one workbbok open at a time.

I m not able to use the standard Excel Paste Special function when I copied a range of cells in another Excel workbook opened in a separate instance of Excel. Instead, Paste Special thinks that I have copied some non-Excel objects and gave me the Paste As options. This is not the case if I open both workbook within the same instance of Excel. Could you share with us if there is a trick to trigger the normal Paste Special options in such situations (without having to invoke Macro procedures)?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to edit a code which previously saved a copy in a new workbook to a specific folder/path. (Additionally it copies and clears some figures, but this is working as it should.)
However I would like the copy to be saved at the same location as the original workbook, regardless of the path the original workbook is saved.
I.e if I need to move the workbook containing the code to a new folder/location, when using the macro, the new copy should be stored in the same folder/location as the original one.
For now it is only saving the copy into "My Documents"

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a code that would copy the data from each worksheet in a given workbook and then paste to just one worksheet within a different workbook. The Sheet names are auto generated when I run this canned report but the naming structure is always the same...the first worksheet is named Repair Details and then the next sheet is named Repair Details_1, the next sheet is named Repair Details_2 and so on for every sheet in workbook. So I would like to copy all of the data(Headers to last cell) and then paste in a worksheet(ex: Master Repair Report.xlsx and the worksheet could be titled Master Repair Details) on a different workbook, then the next sheet would copy from the one under the header to the last record and paste to the same workbook. This process would repeat for every worksheet in the Repair Details Workbook and paste to Master Repair Details worksheet in the Master Repair Report workbook.
