Copy Worksheet Between Workbooks Fails
Jun 11, 2008
I've the following inherited macro which basically opens a CSV text file and copies the contents to another workbook + other things.
Sub GetFile()
' GetFile Macro
Dim ws As Worksheet
Sheets("Menu").Select
' Set Path and Filename and Import
PathName = Range("E4").Value
Filename = Range("E5").Value
ControlFile = ActiveWorkbook.Name
Workbooks.Open Filename:=PathName & Filename
' Setup Temp worksheet
TabNameTemp = "Temp"
' TabName = Range("A2").Value
TabName = "CSV File"....................
with the error: "Run-time error '1004':. Excel cannot insert the sheets into the destination workbook, because it contains fewer rows and columns than the source workbook. To move or copy the data to the destination workbook, you can selct the data, and then use the Copy and Paste commands to insert it into the sheets of another workbook." Nothing has changed in the CSV file or the Workbook with the macros.

I am encountering a problem with worksheets.copy that occurs after the copy method is called a certain amount of times. My issue is similar (exactly the same?) to what is described in these threads:
- Worksheet Copy: Method 'Copy' of Object 'Worksheet' Failed
- Copy Method of Worksheet Class Failed in Loop Code
In my case, after running this code 40 times, it fails.
If loc_after Is Nothing Then
.COPY after:=Worksheets(sht_name_orig) 'throws error here after being called 40 times
Else
.COPY after:=loc_after
End If
I would like this code to be able to run more than 40 times. I have read Dave's suggested solution regarding creating a worksheet template:
http://www.ozgrid.com/Excel/excel-wo...-templates.htm
However, in my situation the client has specifically asked that the report come as a single stand alone excel file with no add ins. In addition, I am copying several different worksheets, not just one single template that is being used over and over.

I have to report on 6 departments each with 6 sub departments weekly. First I need to consolidate 6 ( move/copy worksheet to consolidated workbook using a macro) separate worksheets (all saved in the same folder) per department into single workbook (preferably generated automatically by macro/code). I then need to repeat the above process for another 6 files per sub department. The output files should be pasted as "values" while retaining all other formatting. In essence I need to automate the whole right click on tab, select move or copy worksheet function in excel to take the load out of doing it manually.

Objective: use VB to copy the first sheet (tab) from every Excel file in a specific folder to a new sheet/tab (for each) in a master spreadsheet. I will then aggregate this data into a summary table.
Following the advice of an old thread (Access: VBA combining multiple excel files to 1 new sheet), one time for each file in the folder. So with three excel files in the folder, I get 3 new tabs in my master spreadsheet but all are copies of the first tab in the master spreadsheet.
I'm wondering if maybe the code, which was in a post from 5 years ago, needs to be "modernized" for Excel 2007. Thanks for any help.
This is the code I'm using:
Sub Combine()
Fpath = "C: emp2" ' change to suit your directory
Fname = Dir(FilePth & "*.xls")
Do While Fname <> ""
Workbooks.Open Fpath & Fname
Sheets(1).Copy After:=Workbooks("Master.xlsm").Sheets(Workbooks("Master.xlsm").Sheets.Count)
Workbooks(Fname).Close SaveChanges:=False
Fname = Dir
Loop
End Sub

I'm trying to accomplish the following: on "LogSheet" sheet, click on the DailyCloseButton and have various lists on the "lists" sheet automatically sorted before I save and end. The code below gives an error: "Method ' Range' of object '_Worksheet' failed". I have no idea why it failed.
Private Sub DailyCloseButton_Click()
' DailyClose and sort routine

Sheets("Lists").Activate
Range("Products").Select
Range("Products").Sort Key1:=Range("Products").Cells(2, 1), _
Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlYes, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, _

I had this code working on a Range in a Worksheet. I decided I needed to move the range to another worksheet. I moved the data to column AA in a new sheet called Audit_Pool and renamed the sheet name in ThisWorkbook.Sheets, but I get a runtime error at the With Range statement.
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Audit_Pool").Range("AA:AA")
With Range(.Cells(1, 1), .Cells(.Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
Randomize
With .Cells(Int(.Rows.Count * Rnd()) + 1, 1).Resize(1, 2)
.Copy Destination:=Sheets("Audit_Results_Data_Collection").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
.Copy Destination:=Sheets("Audit_Results_Data_Collection").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
.Copy Destination:=Sheets("Audit_Results_Data_Collection").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
.Copy Destination:=Sheets("Audit_Results_Data_Collection").Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
what I missed when I moved my list to a different sheet?

Two things to note: This code was placed in the worksheet, something new I am trying and two the error line is not highlighting in yellow (as it normally does) indicating the line w/ the infraction.

Set Wss = Workbooks("TGSItemRecordMaster.xls").Worksheets(" Record Creator")

Wss.Range("W3" & LRow).Copy Wsd("A3")

When I call the following code from my Visual Basic 6 program to an excel spreadsheet, it runs great the first time, but then fails everytime after that unless I close vb6 and reopen it.
Private Sub lblGroundScheduleExcel_Click()
'return day of week

'get day
''MyDay = Format(Now, "dd")
MyDay = Format(DTPicker1.Value, "dd")
'get month

MyMonth = Format(DTPicker1.Value, "mm")
'get year
''MyYear = Format(Now, "yyyy")
MyYear = Format(DTPicker1.Value, "yyyy")

I have a spreadsheet called "temp.xls" that will change file name often.
This "temp.xls" has text that needs to be copyed to a new spreadsheet named "punchlist.xls" that does not change names. I know how to acheive this using record macro but I need the text to find the next row in the punchlist.xls file. Do all the macros run on the 1st file or do both files need macros?

I have 25 files with certain worksheets that I need to move to 25 other files.
Worksheet 1, 2, 3 and 4 in Workbook A needs to be moved to Workbook A-2014 Worksheet 1, 2, 3 and 4 in Workbook B needs to be moved to Workbook B-2014 Worksheet 1, 2, 3 and 4 in Workbook C needs to be moved to Workbook C-2014 etc....
Is there a way to do this with a macro? Preferably I would like to do this automaticly - i.e. runing the macro from a master file that
1. Opens Workbook A copies the worksheets
2. Open Workbook A-2014 paste the sheets
3. Save and close Workbook A-2014
4. Close workbook A without saving
then doing the same for Workbook B, etc.

1. I have a list of data (Collated Data)
2. For every row in collated data I want to export the cells into a corresponding cell in my predetermined workbook (TAF Form), i.e, Cell C1 on Collated data goes into Cell D3 on TAF Form, cell D1 to cell I3 etc etc
3. Once all cells in one row have been copied into the TAF Form I want that TAF Form to save as "TAF Form & Employee Name" (which would come from cell D3).
4. I then want "TAF Form & Employee Name" to close.
5. I then want the Macro to do the same thing for Row 2, copy the cells, save the form, close the form
6. I want to do this for every row that I have (which varies).
Is this possible? If you have any more questions in terms of what I need, don't hesitate to ask.

look for a certain value in worksheet A and copy that row of data to Worksheet B.
However, it seems to be only copying the row in worksheet A and pasting it. Is there something that a noob VBA scripter has missed out?
PHP Private Sub GetInfo_Click()
Dim r As Long, LastRow As Long, Status As Integer
Dim Message As String, Title As String, Default As String, MyValue As String
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
MyValue = Range("A4").Value
Workbooks("invoice.xls").Worksheets("A").Activate
LastRow = Range("C65536").End(xlUp).Row
For r = LastRow To 1 Step -1
If Cells(r, 1).Value = MyValue Then
Rows(r).EntireRow.Copy
Workbooks("invoice.xls").Worksheets("B").Activate
Rows("8").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
Status = 1
Workbooks("invoice.xls").Worksheets("A").Activate
Rows(r).EntireRow.Delete
Exit For
End If
Next r
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

I have written code that allows a user to copy, via a button, a certain sheet any number of times. They can choose to copy that sheet 5 times and then 10 times, etc.
When the sheet tries to be copied for the 17th time, it fails with the following message: "Run-time error '1004':
Method 'Copy' of object '_Worksheet' failed"
Here is the code that I have. The second line is the line that is failing.
Worksheets("RoedForm").Select
Worksheets("RoedForm").Copy After:=Worksheets(iCount)
This always fails on the 17th copy regardless of how many different combinations of copy sheets the user tries. There are several sheets before the sheet that is to be copied and I have deleted several of those to see what happens and it still fails on the 17th copy. I also have 1GB of memory, so I don't believe that memory is an issue.

Im currently working on making a workbook as a summary/join of several workbooks. All cells are formatted in the same way, and only Row 1 is the same in all workbooks.
How to combine several excel files into one file?
My issue is that when i run this macro, the rows are overwritten for every workbook runned through.
I end up with only the contents of the last copied workbook.
I guess my EndRow is wrong, or the copy function, since the offset is not set properly.
Code:
Sub ExtractData()Dim basebook As Workbook
Dim mybook As Workbook
Dim FNames As String
Dim MyPath As String
Dim SaveDriveDir As String
Dim Cnum As Integer

I have a worksheet in excel that has financial data for several departments and schools. The data is across 2 columns and 948 rows. I need to break the data down into multiple workbooks so I can use and existing email macro to send them to managers. There is a unique character that separates the data and I was able to use a previously written macro to enter page breaks which is below, but I'm having trouble using the same unique character (or page break) to put the data into separate workbooks.
Dim PBRange As Range, PB As Range
With ActiveSheet
Set PBRange = .Range("A1:A1000")
For Each PB In PBRange
If PB.Value = "***********" Then
.HPageBreaks.Add before:=PB
End If
Next
End With

I looking at attempting to combine 26 spreadsheets all into one with a macro. Basically i have 26 spreadsheets detailing all items placed into different suspesne accounts, these are on going so they can be up to 2000 lines long. All 26 spreadsheets are contained in one folder with a backup of each.
Columns B - F detail the payment being applied.
Columns G - J detail the payment being removed.
I was hoping the would be a way for a macro to look into each one and if there is data in column E (value) and not in column I (vlaue removed) then return the whole line onto a new worksheet. So basically after i have run the macro i would have one worksheet with all outstanding items on instead of having to open each one and copy and pasting.
The lines will always vary on each workbook as to where the outstanding payments is and im using excel 2003.

I have a folder with an unlimited number of Excel Workbooks. Data within workbooks are in same format - 3 columns of data. I would like to extract the Data in the range (B55:B70) for every workbook, transpose the data and append by rows into one worksheet.
To be clear - I want to take data range B55:B70 from first workbook,transpose and put on first row - take data range from second workbook, transpose and put on second row, repeating for unlimited number of times...

I have a spreadsheet with two worksheets (sheet 1 and 2). Sheet 1 has all the current employee data on it e.g. employee number, Forename, Surname, Address, Pay rate, etc. Sheet 2 was last month's employee data in the same format. I want to compare the two worksheets on worksheet 3 and highlight any changes or just put the changes on worksheet 3 (this would be better).
The problem is employees might be on different rows on each worksheet and some employees might not be on one spreadsheet due to staff leaving and starting.
Each staff member has a unique employee number to identify them. So I need a formula that matches the employee number and then looks in the cells in sheet 1 and 2 and if different puts the value in sheet 1 into the cell in sheet 3.

I'm trying to take a single worksheet from a workbook and merge them all into one workbook. In that master workbook I'm looking to have each of the worksheets on different tabs and the tab names as the original workbook name.
So if I have Workbook1, Workbook2, Workbook3, Workbook4 in a folder. I want to open a new spreadsheet, run this macro, select the folder with the Workbooks in, and have it take the range selected from the worksheet 'other' from each of the workbooks and generate a 'master' Spreasheet where each tab would be called Workbook1, Workbook2, Workbook3, Workbook4 and the contents would be from the 'other' tab
I found some of Ron de Bruin's code online which I've tried to customise.
Currently this takes a range from the tab specified, puts it into an array and then pastes it all into different columns on one worksheet. change this so that it creates a new worksheet for each original workbook, and names it after that workbook.

I have a master workbook that needs to be updated with information from approximately 900 other workbooks. The master workbook is layed-out with the name of each of the 900 workbooks (minus the .xls extension) located in column A. The number needed from these 900+ workbooks is consistently located in cell J20.
Is there an easy way to open each of these 900 workbooks, copy the number from cell J20 and paste the number in the correct location in the master workbook?

What I am trying to do.
Code:
Sub COPYCELL()Sheets("Distribution").Select
Range("B7:X84").Copy
Windows("SecondWorkbook.xlsm").Activate
Sheets("Distribution").Select
Range("B7:X84").Paste
End Sub
Basically I want to copy cells B7:X84 in the current workbook on the Distribution tab and paste them into Secondworkbook.xlsm that I have already open on the Distribution tab in the same range. There are graphs though so
I am not sure if that has an impact. When I do it manually I copy and then paste into SecondWorkbook and then I copy what I just pasted and paste special values.
